icewm anomaly after bullseye upgrade

Show all headers | View raw

Here's what I have onboard now after upgrading to bullseye:

cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="11"
VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye
ID=debian

I have never had a situation wherein the number of workspaces in 
the taskbar was _not_ determined by the contents of the line:

WorkspaceNames= " Web ", " Term ", " VNC ", etc.

in ~/.icewm/preferences. The pkgs now installed are:

$ dpkg -l |grep icewm
ii  icewm                                        2.1.2-1 
amd64        wonderful Win95-OS/2-Motif-like window manager
ii  icewm-common                                 2.1.2-1 
amd64        wonderful Win95-OS/2-Motif-like window manager

In order to access workspaces not displayed in the taskbar I 
must have recourse to the Window List Menu button on the extreme 
left side ot the task bar.

Thoughts?

...a society must incorporate the rationalizing
power symbolized by scientific knowledge, for
otherwise it will be a fatally split society-
split between a powerful elite and the
disenfranchised mass. To this we add now: an
irrational elite is the most dangerous of all.
