That work around doesn't resolve the bigger issue which is that citrix
misbehaves badly under compiz AS WELL AS under metacity.  Set up
seamless windows on a desktop and then switch to another destkop.  This
completely messes up the window positioning of the citrix clients,
sometimes even as far as the seamless windows following to the
highlighted desktop.  Going back to the original desktop and the
seamless windows (under metacity) are bunched together and in incorrect
positions.  Under Compiz, switching causes the seamless citrix windows
to crash forcing a restart to the citrix session.

The quoted post was to indicate that the gui problems are at least
acknowledged by citrix to be an issue with the window managers.

After having tested with Intrepid Ibex and the newer version of compiz
as well as testing via hardy and the newer version of compiz, there has
been no change or resolution to this issue.

The ONLY work around is to set up the seamless session(s) in their own
windowed environments.  (read: not seamless.)

Currently, citrix is barely usable under linux/ubuntu and needs looking
at badly.  There are way to many corporate environments that DEPEND on
smooth citrix operation for this to be "just another issue".  If Ubuntu
wishes to be taken seriously as a corporate desktop environment, then
these citrix issues MUST get looked at and resolved.  Whether this is
upstream, or dealt with in conjunction with Compiz/Citrix, it needs
looking at.
