---------------
compiz (1:0.9.12.1+15.04.20150330-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Change default behavior of focus-follows-mouse where the desktop
    will get focus when the mouse is over it. Also add option to allow
    old behavior. (LP: #1427636)
  * Clear out the lastMask vars when using the mouse to resize. (LP:
    #1348254)

  [ Eleni Maria Stea ]
  * Minor optimisation fix: Replaced glLoadIdentity, glMultMatrixf with
    glLoadMatrixf to avoid the unnecessary matrix multiplication:
    identity * some projection matrix

  [ Kevin Lange ]
  * WinRules plugin: boost arbitrary window size limits to something
    more reasonable (LP: #1431923)

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * animations plugin: fixed a potential null pointer dereference (LP:
    #1101573)

Title:
  Desktop doesn't get keyboard focus

Status in Compiz:
  Fix Committed
Status in Compiz 0.9.11 series:
  Confirmed
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When a window application is open, the desktop icons can get mouse
  focus but the keyboard event are send to the last window. Trying
  renaming or deleting files on the desktop with the keyboard is
  impossible in this scenario.

  I have the focus mode "follow the mouse", but reverting to the default
  setting has the same problem.

  Also have a look at this question on Ask Ubuntu

  take-focus-for-focus-under-mouse

  I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 but this problem also happened on 14.04 (and I
  think in older versions too)
