Package: metacity
Version: 1:2.6.5-1
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #230782

Sometimes when I use Alt-Tab, windows in another desktops appears in the
list and if I change to one of them metacity crashes (sometimes
generating a 'core' file in my home).  Gnome restarts metacity imediatly
and it's working again.

This behavior is recent, after an update I did one or two weeks ago.
Before this, the window was placed in my current desktop as stated in
this bug.
