Title:
  vlc/twm/bionic don't interoperate

Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in twm package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  vlc/twm/xenial no problem.
  vlc/twm/bionic can't adjust time slider.
  vlc/lubuntu/bionic no problem.

  When positioning the pointer over the time slider, a little window
  appears showing the time under the pointer.  With the vlc/twm/bionic
  combination, that little window has a title bar containing "Untitled",
  thus the little window hangs down over the time slider, and moves with
  the pointer, so clicking on the time slider is impossible.

  i doubt twm has changed in years.  That's one of the benefits of using
  it.  Along with microscopic footprint, several features still
  unimplemented in any other window manager, and still considered the
  reference standard window manager implementation for xorg.

  my bionic install currently has a networking issue (bug 1748409), so i
  filed this bug under xenial, but the bug is in bionic, not xenial.
