Bug#366613: metacity: new windows don't have the focus and fullscreen apps overlaped by gnome panels

Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.14.1-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I  have just  upgraded metacity  from 1:2.12.-3  and  now applications
luanched from  a terminal  don't gain the  focus anymore,  instead the
terminal keeps it. This might not be a bug but an intended feature but
it seems to be related to the following annoying beahaviour. 

When I  use xpdf acroread in  fullscreen mode, the  Gnome panels still
overlap the  fullscreen applications and  the terminal from  which the
apps was lauched remains above. 

Downgrading  metacity  to version  1:2.12.3-3,  as  I  have just  did,
restores the right behaviour.


Best,

Jérôme
