** Description changed: + [FFe] Please consider the patch attached to comment #3 of LP: #1026640 + for a Feature Freeze exception. + + [IMPACT] + Users of the motif-clients package have no easy way to select the Motif Window Manager (MWM) included in this package. + + [Test Case] + Install packages libmotif4 and motif-clients. Log out, then at the display manager log in screen, verify that there is now an option for 'Motif Window Manager' and that you can log in after selecting it. You should see an empty desktop. Right-click causes a popup menu with 'New Window' and 'Quit...' options to appear. + + [Regression Potential] + Minimal: only the file /usr/share/xsessions/mwm.desktop is added. + + --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + After installing motif-clients package that includes mwm window manager, it is very difficult to switch to use this WM, since GDM login screen does not include corresponding entry.
