[Pkg-owncloud-maintainers] Bug#1037957: nextcloud-desktop: XFCE sessions cause broken behavior after 11 -> 12 upgrade

[Patrick Hibbs]

Package: nextcloud-desktop
Version: 3.7.3-1
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: hibbsncc1701 at gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

After upgrading to Debian Bookworm from Bullseye, nextcloud-desktop erroneously
opens it's main popup window in the dead center of the screen when a user logs
in to an XFCE session.

Closing the window normally, by clicking outside of the window, does not work.

Instead the user must either input the Alt-F4 combination. Or click on the tray
icon once to move the window back under the tray icon, (Where it should appear
normally.) and again to close the window. This has to be done on every login
regardless of reboots.

Also, if the user has configured items to be excluded from sync (such as files
that are too big for the destination, server files on external storage, etc.)
nextcloud-desktop will also start sending notifications about them prompting
the user to configure the app despite having already made their configuration
choice. This too happens on every login, but can be disabled by disabling
notifications from the app.

As an additional note, when I upgraded from Bullseye, the nextcloud-desktop
package was uninstalled due to a package conflict. I reinstalled it after the
upgrade was complete without the conflict occuring again.
