  child

Status in metacity package in Ubuntu:

Status in metacity source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in metacity source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [General information about the SRU]
  * It includes the fix for the bug 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/issues/31
  * The fix is already included in 3.46.0 release: 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/commit/77f1d55479bfef479f76011a1ee5636f9bf6b08b#9f621eb5fd3bcb2fa5c7bd228c9b1ad42edc46c8
  * The reproducer also revealed another issue with docked windows, undocked 
windows are not being restored after parent window is minimized and restored
  * The fix for restore is included in 3.46.1 release: 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/metacity/-/commit/3db07fafa1c7ff9749b6a82ccb36d8b62f2304d9
  * Focal(3.36.1) and Jammy (3.44.0) needs both fixes to be backported

  [Impact]
  This affects users using applications that have docked windows

  [Test Case]

  * Install gnome-session-flashback (metacity) and reproducer's dependencies 
`sudo apt install lightdm gnome-session-flashback pyside2-tools 
python3-pyside2.qtwidgets`
  * Start a graphical session with metacity
  * run python3 Untitled.py
  * Undock one of the application's child windows
  * Minimize main window
  * Result: Metacity will crash

  * Fix: install fix from ppa: 
  * sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mustafakemalgilor/lp-2003176-0
  * sudo apt update
  * sudo reboot # or alternatively, restart display manager
  * run python3 Untitled.py
  * Undock one of the application's child windows
  * Minimize main window
  * Expectation: it should not crash and the application should be minimized.

  [Regression Potential]
  The fix is small in size and localized, it should not cause any regressions.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Bug Version: 1:3.36.1-1 / 1:3.44.0-1
