[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#465498: virt-manager: Need to ask twice to open dialogs or windows

[Paul Collins]

I just encountered a problem using virt-manager with evilwm that I think
may be a variant of this problem.

When I tried to create a new VM, the dialog window appeared at the top
left of the screen without a border and was visible on all workspaces.

Checking it out with xwininfo and xprop, I noticed the following:

  $ xprop WM_STATE      # click on window
  WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                  window state: Withdrawn
                  icon window: 0x0

When I cancel the dialog and invoke the "New" command again, the window
appears with a border and WM_STATE is correct:

  $ xprop WM_STATE      # click on window
  WM_STATE(WM_STATE):
                  window state: Normal
                  icon window: 0x0
