Bug Description

In Linux Mint 16 (Petra), the Geary mail client (0.4-ubuntu1) renders an unintelligible list of mail messages.

I've observed this on both a fresh VM (see screenshot) and on an AMD A6-4400M-based laptop.

Geary is able to successfully fetch all the mail, but the list of messages is using a super tiny font that is unreadable. In the attached screenshot, the center column should be listing the mail messages.

I have the same issue too. I have upgraded the package using both the stable ppa and the daily ppa and the problem has disappeared. Hope it works for you too!

Actually you can read in the package details of the stable version:

geary (0.4.3-1~saucy1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Fix "squished" conversation list when used with certain themes
  * Compile-time support for WebKitGTK 2.0
