Package: gnome-session-flashback
Version: 3.6.2-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Since last upgrade, <Alt>Tab (or <Super>Tab) doesn't work anymore by default.

Apparently it is supposed to switch between applications rather than windows,
but this doesn't seem to work outside of gnome-shell (or Mutter?).  Anyhow,
one can't switch between applications using the keyboard without hand-tunig
stuff deep down dconf-editor.  Though, <Alt>² (<Alt>Above_Tab) to stwicth
between same application windows do work.

To fix this, set the dconf key org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybingins.switch-windows
to a list of keybidings, like ['<Alt>Tab'].

Regards,
Colomban
