This is not a bug in Emacs, but GTK+. See thread for bugs #6633 and
#6798, and bug report at
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617442

A workaround to suppress the message has been committed to the trunk
and will be in Emacs 24.

Good morning.

I am using Linux. Whenever I save a file I get the following error 
message on the window which I used to open emacs:

** (emacs:1973): CRITICAL **: murrine_style_draw_box: assertion `height 
>= -1' failed

However, everything seems to be OK, the file is saved correctly. 
Nevertheless, it makes me nervous.

Could I know what it means and what should I do to suppress this message?

Thanks. Regards,

Luigi DiLella / CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
