Thanks Sebastian.

May be is related to http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/4769 ?

Seen here too.

Would be great if you can confirm is these errors are particular to your
development environment,
or if are regressions. Hopefully we will get Fedora 20 images soon.
I saw different visual artifacts in sugar-build on F20 (in particular
palettes show a border line), but I don't know if are related to new gtk
version or what.
Can you check your gtk version?
