Package: fvwm
Version: 1:2.6.7-2
Severity: important

Since I've upgraded fvwm from 1:2.6.5.ds-4.1 to 1:2.6.7-2 (last night),
I have the following problems. I have the following in my config:

Mouse 1         A       SCM     Raise

1. If the window is not yet on top, then it is not always raised.
Well, I'm not sure. It could be problem 2. See below.

2. If the window is already on top, then this sometimes freezes the
desktop: I can't do anything until I do another click.

I'd say that problem 1 occurs at around 1 over 10. AFAIK, it had never
occurred before the upgrade.

Problem 2 can occur at around 1 over 10, but sometimes it occurs
several times in a row. I don't know whether it is new, since I had
probably never done tests before. FYI, I've noticed it when I was
trying to find the cause of problem 1: I tried with xev to see if
the clicks were always reported[*], where the xev window is usually
on top.

[*] The result is that they seem to be.

Now, back to problem 1, I think that what I always did is to try
again, so that the window is raised. But with more tests, it actually
seems to be problem 2, i.e. the desktop is frozen, and the window is
not raised *as a consequence*! If I click anywhere (without SCM held),
then the window is raised, which would confirm that this is problem 2.

Note: I have not changed my FVWM config except the replacement of
FvwmWinList by FvwmIconMan (since FvwmWinList is no longer available
in FVWM 2.6.7).
