Allan: The problem that we've been facing isn't that the postrm scripts don't run metacity --replace, this could also be a problem if you are uninstalling compiz from within the desktop environment, but we wouldn't have noticed that since we had no running X-terminals at that point. The problem we had (until we patched the gnome-wm script) was that the window manager couldn't be started at all.
Frodon: I don't believe these two issues to be related, however, this issue affects the default window manager key, since it is forced to /usr/bin/compiz (even though compiz is not installed) if no window manager is set. -- Uninstalling compiz disables metacity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132772 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
