Package: awesome
Version: 3.5.2+git7-g9723f23-1
Severity: normal
I have whined on the IRC a few times already but finally decided to document
this issue officially.
I have awesome running as a window manager while I also have XFCE4 menu pannel
and gkrellm (on the side). When I switch to another tag, regardless of what
was the window which had focus in that tag before, xfce4-pannel acquires focus.
If I kill that pannel -- it would focus then on gkrellm (instead of originally
focused window in that tag).
I believe it used to work just fine and I can't recall with which upgrade
of awesome it started to happen.
Here are xprops for the xfce4-pannel and gkrellm... I guess issue would be
resolved to some degree (I did not check if actually original window among
multiple would get selected) if awesome ignored windows
