Description of problem: (I have no idea whether this is a bug in gnome-terminal, metacity, or something else) I have windows stacked in follow order from front to back: gnome-terminal A, Mozilla, gnome-terminal B Terminal A has focus, and I mininize it. Now terminal B is brought in front of Mozilla, which is not desired behaviour, surely? 8.0 didn't do this, I'm pretty sure. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): metacity-2.4.34-3 gnome-terminal-2.2.1-3 vte-0.10.25-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. bring up three windows, terminal, non-terminal, terminal in that order 2. minimize the top terminal Actual results: Back terminal is brought in front of non-terminal Expected results: Non-terminal is left and given focus. Additional info: Terminally annoying behaviour.
There's code where if you close a dialog it tries to focus the parent window of the dialog I think, perhaps that code is overzealous. If you run your terminals with --disable-factory it probably won't happen (because they won't be "in the same app") - perhaps a workaround. Moving to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107654
