Thanks for the patch, Aaron. I'm able to reproduce this bug using the
firefox f11 -> open link in new window, when using the live session of
the daily-live lubuntu iso. And the attached patch does seem to help.
Overall the patch is what I was hoping to see, but I will request some
changes.

Gah, ok, one more try. I failed to update the debian/copyright file last
time. This version has the updated copyright file.

After a discussion with dbungert, we're using a different patch instead.
This one is possibly upstream already, which makes it superior to the
original patch I was suggesting since it means less maintenance overhead
in the future.

New patch, same approach, but with a fallback added if itPrev turns out
to be null.

One worry I am having with my patch now is, what happens if the first
element is the one being modified? Then itPrev is a null pointer. I
*think* from looking at the GLib code that g_list_next will then return
null when it it handed itPrev, which means "it" will be set to null,
which I believe will

(One extra bit of info that I realized was left out - according to the

As noted in the original bug report; this bug was annoying... as was

OK, so I'm not entirely sure testing the one item case is even possible
since the crash happens when switching from a fullscreen window (which
implies that there are at least two windows). However, this is what I
did, and everything was successful (no crashes).

@dbungert: While the patch that simply copies the list is a possible way
of doing things, a very experienced user on the Arch Linux forums had
concerns about doing things that way, see

Partial review of the patch so far. I haven't read much openbox code so
take this with a grain of salt.
https://bugzilla.icculus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6669#c9 mentions a concern
that itPrev may still be pointing to invalid data. I share this
concern. I think some interesting testcases are what ha
I don't have upload access to this package yet (it's not in the Lubuntu

I believe we have a working patch for the problem. A quick summary of
what it looks like is happening:
Openbox maintains a list of windows organized by stacking order from
highest to lowest. This is a doubly-linked list.
There is a function in Openbox called client_calc_layer that uses a
