Fix: please read this thread https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3679

This causes grub to complain and wait at boot, if / is encrypted so that the theme files are not accessible.
Idea: Don't modify /etc/default/grub by default, but make it optional by a dpkg question?

Removing desktop-base also brings back the menu icons.

Before I issue a build, I'd like to know if anyone notices anything else weird with the desktop that is related to theming or that gets corrected with removing desktop-base or the deepsea window and icon themes themes.

I guess it was bound to happen to Devuan, sooner or later.

Sometime ago (last year?) I read about the huge backlash to the new path Xfce was taking as it moved forward to v. 4.16.
If I remember correctly, it was mainly about Client Side Decorations. 

See:
https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=56141#p56141
https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=56143#p56143

... not an issue about what the Users want ...
... why follow and mimic Gnome?
---
... XFCE and Mate both seem to have this strange and senseless desire to become like Gnome ...
... with Gnome trying so hard to be like Microsoft.

I then thought it over and decided to stay with the version I have (4.12) as long as I can so as to give me time to consider something else altogether.
I was never too happy with how Xfce worked and this sort of set a limit.

Hopefully it can be sorted.

No need (for me), I won't continue past Xfce 4.12.

Q: which would be the safest and most foolproof/bulletproof way to keep Xfce from upgrading anything from now on?

Thanks in advance.

Best,

A.

Of course ''Show icons in menu" is switched on, and several icon themes are installed.
Toggling back and forth 'Show icons in menu", switching between different themes, regeneration of icon caches, reinstallation of packages (panel, themes, xfdesktop, desktop-base) did have no effect.

This might have happened (not sure) after the recent update of desktop-base and installation of the deepsea theme.

What should I have a look at for troubleshooting?
