So this pretty much precludes adding the patch in its current form to our xfwm4 package. Creating a modified package in OBS is actually not that difficult, you can simply branch X11:xfce/xfw4 to your home project and add the patch to it, see http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_Tutorial on how to get started with OBS. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Guido, thanks for taking a look at this, and also for the link to the OBS tutorial. Sorry I didn't spot that dragging between worksapces issue ! I think I'll create an experimental branch of X11:xfce/xfw4, as you suggest, and put a link to the upstream bug somewhere in the description. Who knows, someone might use it, like it, and help out upstream.

That's a good idea.

Can we keep this (#714535) bug open as a reminder to possibly cherry-pick that patch, when it's ready ? I took a look at the XFCE 4.10 roadmap, and it looks

Yes, that is why I haven't closed it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
