Subject: [PATCH installer] ui: gtk3: set up proper RGBA visual for main window
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:54:20 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260618105423.664293-1-c.heiss@proxmox.com> (raw)
This properly fixes all instances of broken damage-tracking with dialogs
and other overlaying widgets on top of the WebKit2 view.
By using RGBA instead of a the default RGB visual, the GTK <-> X server
interaction for compositing widgets on top of each other seem to work
correctly.
This was previously worked around in one instance and thus also
effectively reverts commit
55c764163 ("gui: redraw window after closing disk setup dialog")
.. as it is now no longer needed.
