** Description changed:
Steps to reproduce:
- * You need to use some app that gets automatically sent to the front at some
moment, like Update Manager or Synaptic. Start updating or installing packages.
- * While Update Manager is downloading, use another app, say Firefox.
- -> At some point, Update Manager gets automatically sent to the front (while
updating the cache or starting to install).
+ * You need to use some app that gets automatically sent to the front at some
moment, like Update Manager or Synaptic. Start updating or installing packages.
+ * While Update Manager is downloading, use another app, say Firefox.
+ -> At some point, Update Manager gets automatically sent to the front (while
updating the cache or starting to install).
Observed behaviour:
- * The unfocused Update Manager window is in front of Firefox (the global
menu still shows the menu of Firefox)
- * Clicking on the Firefox window (if visible) or on the Firefox icon in the
launcher (if Update Manager or Synaptic is fullscreen) does NOT bring it back
to the front.
- * You have to focus the Update Manager window, then click on the Firefox one
to put it to the front.

launcher (if Update Manager or Synaptic is fullscreen) does NOT bring it back
to the front.
+ * You have to focus the Update Manager window, then click on the Firefox one
to put it to the front.
- Expected behaviour :
- * if a window is sent to the front, it should get the focus.
- * or... if an active window is behind another (non-sticky) window, any action
on it (and a click on its launcher icon) should bring it to the front
- * a solution for Bug #748840 might fix this bug too.
