Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-games

I'm using xmonad, a tiling window manager that also has support for a
floating layer. It automatically puts windows that are marked as
transient in the floating layer, and tiles all the others (with a few
exceptions). Unfortunately the little window that pops up when you click
on a note in Sudoku is not marked as transient, so it gets tiled, which
is quite wrong.

The attached screenshot illustrates the problem. The popup is the window
in the background; note that it even has a tab/title bar. Because there
are no other windows on the tiled layer, the window manager gives it the
entire screen (apart from the space reserved for the panel).

A workaround is to configure xmonad specifically to always float gnome-
sudoku's windows.
