Package: budgie-desktop
Version: 10.5.2-4
Followup-For: Bug #990678
X-Debbugs-Cc: pascal.mart...@gmx.fr

Dear Maintainer,

I must again bring some rectification to what I said from the 21th of July.

For compositing windows, I thought that I had brought Mutter as a replacement
to Compton/Picom in Openbox. In fact I hadn't. As everything worked fine, I
thought it was thanks to Mutter. Not at all, it was thanks to Feh, the famous
background chooser that must have some X11 dependencies that take in charge the
handling of the windows.

I discovered all this by launching Openbox without its ~/.config/openbox/
directory and launching programs in autostart(.sh) one by one. The launching of
Mutter in a terminal returned an error (in fact I don't know how to properly
handle Mutter) that went unnoticed during every Openbox starting.

There was just one problem at every fresh Openbox start, a wrong launching of
"Kupfer" (had to click on it for key capture) or "Emacs --maximized" (was not
maximized) for instance. After a restart from Openbox itself it then worked
properly. That must have "washed" in some way the internal error from Mutter as
autostart(.sh) is not relaunched by restart from Openbox. That slight Openbox
bad working led me into this little inquiry that took me several days or search
and trying. I am just an amateur.

I wanted to rectify this, so the possible reader would not be induced into
error. Maybe there is a way to bring Mutter into Openbox, but maybe it would
end up being heavy and complex instead of light and simple as we like it.

And so, regarding budgie-desktop, the good working of MPV and other software in
Openbox has nothing to do with Mutter.

Cordially,
Pascal.
