** Description changed: + [General information about the SRU] + * It includes fix for bug 1582687 which was already backported. + * It fixes bug 1509031, bug 1592953 and bug 1596574. + * Other commits are minor bugfixes, the full log can be seen here: + https://git.gnome.org/browse/metacity/log/?h=3.18.5 + * There is also a NEWS file, here: + https://git.gnome.org/browse/metacity/tree/NEWS?h=3.18.5 + [Impact] Windows can not be moved above the top of screen because the coordinates system used is wrong. [Test Case] * Launch a non-CSD application, such as Firefox or Thunderbird; * Try Alt-dragging it above the top of the screen. [Regression Potential] The fix is changing the coordinates system to the right one and should not cause any regressions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- After upgrading to 15.10, I can no longer Alt-drag Firefox and Thunderbird windows above the top of the screen. When I attempt to do so, the window snaps downward along the y-axis so that the titlebar aligns with top of screen. Other applications such as gnome-terminal do not seem to be affected. I ran git-bisect on metacity, and narrowed the regression down to this commit: https://github.com/GNOME/metacity/commit/90b36abebdf69be0abaec4015d01e46296f6f5d6 commit 90b36abebdf69be0abaec4015d01e46296f6f5d6 Author: Alberts Muktupāvels <alberts.muktupav...@gmail.com> Date: Fri Apr 3 23:30:20 2015 +0300 window: add a meta_window_get_titlebar_rect Based on mutter commits: https://git.gnome.org/browse/mutter/commit/?id=3a0af0faaebb1af75925c70ad98e73c61e57639b https://git.gnome.org/browse/mutter/commit/?id=ac099343dab7b5048ce242958c454c55d1924902 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: metacity 1:3.17.2-4ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-16.19-generic 4.2.3 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-16-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: GNOME-Flashback:Unity Date: Thu Oct 22 13:35:02 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-09-22 (394 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140722.2) SourcePackage: metacity UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to wily on 2015-10-22 (0 days ago)
