             Bug #: 31916
           Summary: Steam in xfce: xfwm4 windows refuse to relinquish
                    focus
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.5.14
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: FinalCrisisSX at Hotmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


In xfce (or in kde with xfwm4 instead of kwin), Steam has recently started
having an issue where it refuses to relinquish focus. If you were to click
inside a chat window and then try to click back into, for example, a terminal
window to switch focus, it would work for a split second and then the chat
window would pop right back up over it. Ie, it is impossible to switch into
another window via click because the active window won't go away.

It is easy to trigger the problem, but I've had a hard time figuring out
specifically what steps one must follow in order to do so. However, if I have
the main steam window and friends list open and a chat window hovering over a
terminal and tinker with moving and minimizing / changing the focus of the main
and chat windows for a minute or two (and try to click into the terminal), I
can reliably cause it to occur.

This occurs from wine 1.5.12 to 1.5.14, and in both Linux Mint 13 x64 and Arch
Linux x64 in a used or fresh wineprefix. Occurs on my machine and a friend's
machine as well.

A regression test found the following to be the trouble for me:
