That was the idea, but for my own tracking I wrote about this problem
first on my blog, so that's why it might sound weird the way I phrased
the last sentence.
Still, there is the background image alteration issue which hasn't been
captured and now, just after a resume, it doesn't seem to manifest yet.

I am also aware that upgrade-reports is a temporary package, but I
haven't started the investigation on identifying the culprit. I am
suspecting some X component, but I was mostly hoping for an X
maintainer/developer to identify a possible package and suggest some
hints to identify the package.
