Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compiz
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install Ubuntu on a machine capable of desktop effects
2. sudo apt-get install emerald
3. Log in
Actual results: You get emerald as your window decorator
Expected results: Same as actual results, perhaps; but there needs to be
a way to choose gtk-window-decorator instead.
As I understand it, gtk-window-decorator is preferred as default because
it is better supported and because it gives the user the same-looking
window decorations as metacity. The wrapper script "compiz" in the
compiz-core package (if I read it correctly) forces emerald on the user
if the emerald binary exists. The only way to get back to gtk-window-
decorator is to manually do "gtk-window-decorator --replace" after
launching compiz.
** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
