I had set up fvwm2 as x-window-manager (using update-alternatives)
but sawfish gets repeatedly set up as default window manager which is
very annoying becuase it causes window manager to exit when I try to
restart it.
while testing the problem I have found out that when I apt-get remove
sawfish somebody sets the x-window-manager to auto mode, I get following
message:
----------------------------------------
Removing sawfish ...
Removing manually selected alternative - switching to auto mode
dpkg - warning: while removing sawfish, directory `/var/lib/sawfish' not
empty so not removed.
----------------------------------------
I guess it is caused by the following command in prerm script:
update-alternatives --remove x-window-manager /usr/bin/sawfish
is it a bug in update-alternatives? IMO it shouldn't switch back to
auto mode when I remove alternative (which is not currently selected).
Should I file a bug?
Or should sawfish use something else? I checked few other WMs
(wmaker, fvwm) and they use the same command...
