Description: This update fixes the following issues for xfwm4: - update to version 4.8.3 - do not exit the move/resize loop when just any key is pressed unless the operation is triggered via the keyboard - reverting from desktop view may not focus the top most window - recompute window's position/maximization state even if the overall size of the screen hasn't changed as the actual layout of the monitors may have changed nevertheless - check for both forward and backward cycling modifier to be released before exiting the cycle loop - fix a couple of memory leaks - fix some events being lost causing the tabwin window to remain sometimes after the key has been released - fix crash when workspace count is set to negative values - fix crash in signal handler - fix a bug with transients for group (including utility windows) being withdrawn as many times as parent windows where in the group, causing utility windows to disapear when switching workspaces - do not allow applications to change the win layer on dialogs to prevent dialogs to be unreachable in some Java based applications - do not enforce the size increment only if the size request comes from the application itself - dropped obsolete xfwm4-4.8.2-careful-layer-manipulation.patch, xfwm4-4.8.2-fix-disappearing-transient-windows.patch, and xfwm4-4.8.2-fix-resizing.patch - 761550: added xfwm4-fix-sticky-parentless-dialogs.patch (bxo#8263) Patch Instructions: To install this openSUSE Recommended Update use YaST online_update.
