Appears to be incompatible with GNOME 47 #2255

Open iconoclasthero opened 3 weeks ago

iconoclasthero commented 3 weeks ago

Describe the bug Appears to be incompatible with GNOME 47. Pressing toggle visibility does various things. Sometimes it causes the window to blink on, sometimes, if you hit it enough, it causes it to STAY ON!!! When it's on, sometimes it causes guake to blink off, sometimes it causes guake to stay off.

Also it appears on the wrong window from time to time, refuses to show up on one of my monitors at all.... not really showing up when and where it's supposed to and if it does, it doesn't stay there when told to do so. It's like a poorly trained dog.

Expected behavior Normal toggle visibility function.

Actual behavior Pressing toggle visibility does various things. Sometimes it causes the window to blink on, sometimes, if you hit it enough, it causes it to STAY ON!!! When it's on, sometimes it causes guake to blink off, sometimes it causes guake to stay off.

Also it appears on the wrong window from time to time, refuses to show up on one of my monitors at all.... not really showing up when and where it's supposed to and if it does, it doesn't stay there when told to do so. It's like a poorly trained dog.

To Reproduce toggle visibility in GNOME 47

NB It appears that using $ guake-toggle from the cli works properly.

I managed to get back to gnome 46 on X and the problems went away, literally everything else being equal...

Here is a workaround:

Remove F12 as key to 'Toggle Guake visibilty' in Guake Properties. Add F12 as 'Custom Shortcut' to command 'guake-toggle' in Gnome, Settings, Keyboard, View and Customize Shortcuts.

As a workaround I downgraded GNOME back ca. 46.0 or whatever was available when the Oracular repo was initiated on the machine I installed GNOME on right after 46.x was removed from the Oracular repo. On my other machine I apt-mark held enough to keep 46 from being upgraded to 47...

So for now, this is an FYI that you may have some issues with 47, but I can remap F12 when I do upgrade to 47. Had 46 not taken care of it, that would, in fact, have been my next step.

Worked for me, thanks!
