The trigger of the bug seems to have been fixed in Firefox 18.0, but it's still present in Thunderbird 17.0.2:
xwininfo -size for Firefox 18.0 gives: Program supplied maximum size: 32767 by 32767 xwininfo -size for Thunderbird 17.0.2 gives: Program supplied maximum size: 1073741824 by 1073741824 Behaviour of different sawfish versions in precise: sawfish 1:1.5.3-2build1: Firefox: GOOD (can be resized). Thunderbird: BAD (can't be resized). sawfish 1:1.5.3-2ubuntu1: Firefox: GOOD (can be resized). Thunderbird: GOOD (can be resized). No side effects observed. So, the updated sawfish package fixes the bug properly. I have not tested it in quantal. ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1083260 Title: Can't resize Firefox 17.0 window with sawfish To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sawfish/+bug/1083260/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
