Description

I think we should backport a patch from the pre-release version of Cheese (3.31.90): 

  - Drop deprecated GtkScrollbar-min-slider-length
    It seems to serve no purpose anymore + added bonus:
    Avoid deprecation warning littering journald logs.

Without this, an error such as the following gets sent to the systemd journal (and I'm sure some log in sysv, but it's been so long since I've ran one of those that I'm not sure where it would end up) once every second: 

Theme parsing error: cheese.css:7:35: The style property GtkScrollbar:min-slider-length is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. It will be removed in a future version.

This still does not fix it's inability to generate a thumbnail for .jpg files that it takes. I've reported that upstream.
