Subject: Alt-Tab switching broken in dfsg.1-5
Package: xlibs
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-5
Severity: important
Tags: sid

Hi,
when upgrading x from dfsg.1-4 to -5, the handy Alt-Tab "Task switching" ceases
to function on a KDE machine as well as on a Gnome/metacity machine. One has
r128, the other has a radeon. Downgrading only the xlibs package to
dfsg.1-4 and restarting X cures it. The systems are both otherwise sid.

Detailed behavior / steps to reproduce:

  * Hold alt, press tab
 -> Task selector appears, OK
  * repeatedly press tab
 -> switches between windows as usual
  * release tab
 -> focus leaves current window, so far OK, but
 -> focus does not hit selected window.

same behavior when omitting the second step. I cannot see any entry in the
Debian changelog that looks like it could have anything to do with this
bug. Is there any kind of further testing (xev) that you would like me to
perform? Is there any other information I can gather for you?

Thanks anyway for the fine work so far.
brgds
