Description Raphael Kubo da Costa (rakuco) 2016-11-09 14:34:07 UTC

matchbox-window-manager returns an empty value when one queries the _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP X11 property.

This can be easily verified by adding xprop to a test image and calling "xprop -root _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP" -- an empty value will be returned instead of a number.

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/matchbox-window-manager/commit/?id=050b414cf6e1a24c0c2489257cdb4a9fd482afc9 introduced the bug by passing 0 to the wrong XChangeProperty() argument.

This causes a crash in Chromium debug builds, as there is a debug assertion expecting _NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP not to return an empty string.
