Knowledge Base

All of my accumulated little fixes for gtk3 from Devuan are now also available in a COPR for Fedora!

• gtk3-nocsd
• gtk3-nooverlayscrollbar
• gtk3-automnemonics

All the packages are native to Devuan but not Fedora, so this gtk3-stackrpms collection is designed to make it easy to install all of these on Fedora.

gtk3-stackrpms upstreams

Because gtk3-stackrpms is a collection, there are multiple upstreams.

gtk3-nocsd

This package is the main PCMan release that helps suppress client-side decorations. Devuan GNU+Linux already packages gtk3-nocsd natively.

• From Debian: https://packages.debian.org/sid/gtk3-nocsd

Fedora rpm spec:

gtk3-nooverlayscrollbar

This package's contents come from fsmithred of the Devuan community. It sets a few environment variables to force the scrollbars to be always visible. Devuan GNU+Linux already packages gtk3-nooverlayscrollbar natively. The package is really just one file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d that sets a few key environment variables to 0.

gtk3-automnemonics

This package re-enables the gtk3 engine's ability to interpret a theme's settings.ini gtk-auto-mnemonics = 0which forces the underscores always on, to make it clear what ALT keystroke is required to select a button or menu entry. This is a module provided by Gord Squash: sgm and packaged in Devuan natively.
