greets!

don't know if it's related to Stretch - I recently upgraded from Jessie (now somewhat to my regret) - but I did an update of Firefox via the Mozilla online update.

subsequently (and as an effect?) Firefox lost vertical scrollbars. I tried various things with the themes (unsystematically) and now have a circumstance where I get:

"GTK+ 2.x symbols detected. Using GTK+ 2.x and GTK+ 3 in the same process is not supported"

when I try to start Firefox, Pan and Google-Chrome-Stable. online googling has so far yielded nothing useful.

things got worse, e.g. turned out FF and Chrome were unresponsive; eventually I got worried I might have to re-install to recover sanity, which itself would be crazy.

I removed some of gtk3 (removed gtk3-tqt-engine-trinity, gtk2-engines-oxygen and I believe libgtk-3-bin), settled on Redmond, uninstalled google-chrome-stable (which I subsequently reinstalled).

results of (some elements of) this are:

chrome, pan, FF fully functional
problem with menu items in OpenOffice disappearing is solved.

there are exotic error messages when I start some things in a terminal which I may try to track down during my next bout of procrastination.
