Ubuntu Budgie: budgie-desktop panel popovers show twice when opening

[Prantik Majumder]

1)Lappy Spec: https://hastebin.com/ucoqeqahik.sql
2)Graphical Issue: I have given a reference video sample which was taken on remix 16.10 in which this issue is not present. remix 16.04 also does not have this glitch.

The issue is when i click options on top bar such as "user indicator(power button)" or "bluetooth" or "clock" or "budgie menu" etc. , the animation is aggressive as if it opens twice.

This PPA resolves this issue:

 https://launchpad.net/~ubuntubudgie-dev/+archive/ubuntu/test-disable-animations

This removes the normal GNOME popover animation - popups appear instantly rather than fade in/out.

If this bug affects you please click the "affects me" link at the top of this page.

We need to decide whether to disable the animation effects for all users or not.

applied as follows:

pull-lp-source budgie-desktop zesty
cd budgie-desktop-10.2.9
quilt pop -a
patch -p1 < ../budgie-desktop_10.2.9-3ubuntu4.debdiff
debuild -S

I have built this package here:

Tested by 4 independent community testers.

Note to sponsors:

As maintainer of this package, please can this high-priority bug fix be applied to zesty asap.

This update actually removes a patch previously made - this linked upstream report #809 is the upstream issue this workaround fix resolves. We are waiting for an upstream fix to restore GTK popover animations correctly - in the interim, I'm happy this patch resolves adequately the very visible issue noted by beta 2 testers.

thanks
