Bug Description

Binary package hint: metacity

In the Human theme, the rounded corners of Metacity window frames are a bit of a mess.

On the top-left and top-right curves, there is a noticable missing black pixel from the curve at the top causing a bit of a disjoint where the black outline runs around the outside of the window. At the bottom-left and bottom-right, there is a thick, blotchy collection of black pixels that makes it look somewhat spiky. See attached screenshot.

Thanks

The next tarball will likely have that fix and GNOME 2.18.1 will be shipped with the new Ubuntu so that will be no problem to have it

This is still (or again) an issue with the themes Human, Human-Clearlooks, New Wave, Darklooks, Clearlooks and probably other themes that use rounded corners.
