    Dear Maintainer,

    gnubg flickers on debian trixie.

    To reproduce:

    1. upgrade to trixie
    2. launch `gnubg` (we are in graphical, 2d mode)
    3. start a game, move some chequers, click on the UI buttons
    4. you will notice various element flickering

    I tried toggling various graphics option, but no dice.

    My expectation: none of the UI element to flicker.
