    Hi

    I am not sure what package is causing it. But after an upgrade yesterday the yellow flowers in my wallpaper and the yellow icons on the desktop and in pcmanfm-qt appear blue. As well as some buttons on popups like shutdown confirm. Icons in the panel and some menu selections are still yellow.

    If I move the wallpaper and icons to another linux install the flowers and icons are still yellow.

    Is every yellow thing blue, or just those? Are other colors correct?

    It's not your monitor acting up.

    The desktop and icons in pcmanfm-qt are blue when they should be yellow. Since pcmanfm-qt handles the desktop, its at least consist. When copying
    the blue icons to another install they are yellow.

    Blue is the opposite color from yellow, at least in RGB. Maybe pcmanfm-qt
    is inverting everything? Switch to a desktop image with a bunch of
    different color swatches and see how they look, and compare to the same
    image viewed elsewhere. Something like
