[Bug 974242] Re: Compiz is moving windows against my will

 

This patch had been fixing issues I was seeing with the placement of
fullscreen remmina windows ( BUG https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-
core/+bug/976032 ), but the latest update from ubuntu appears to have
reverted the patch out from my system:

knoxg@bnehyp02:/var/log$ sudo apt-cache policy compiz-plugins-default
compiz-plugins-default:
  Installed: 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4
  Candidate: 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4
  Version table:
 *** 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4 0
        500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/oli/compiz-place-patch/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages
     1:0.9.7.6-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages


To enforce the source of the compiz plugins to Oli's PPA, I created a pinning preferences file under /etc/apt/preferences.d/compiz-place-patch.pref containing the following:

Package: compiz-plugins
Pin: origin ppa.launchpad.net
Pin-Priority: 600

Package: compiz-plugins-default
Pin: origin ppa.launchpad.net
Pin-Priority: 600

and then performed an apt-get upgrade; the patches were then returned to
my system:

knoxg@bnehyp02:/var/log$ sudo apt-cache policy compiz-plugins-default
compiz-plugins-default:
  Installed: 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.4
