Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xfwm4

Running the latest version of intrepid, it seems like every other time I
deiconify my buddy list in pidgin, the list gets full screened
automatically.  Im pretty sure this is an xfwm4 bug because it does not
occur under emerald/compiz and I never remember this happening under
metacity.

What happens is that if I have my buddy list not open (because I clicked
on the pidgin icon to make it go away), I can open up my buddy list once
and it comes up as it should.  (The same size and place it was in when I
closed it.)  However, if I close it and then open it again, regardless
of the time passed, it opens up as if I had clicked the full screen
button.  If I dont de-full screen it, it will stay full screened if I
open and close it any number of times.

A few other interesting points ive noticed.  When it comes up correctly
the first time in the cycle, it has the wrong icon.  It is not full
screened, but it has the de-full screen icon instead of the full screen
icon.  Also, when it comes up correctly, if I manually full screen the
window and then de-full screen it, that sort of counts as resetting the
cycle and the next time I open the window it will be normal and then the
next time it will mess up.

Thanks, and I hope this is enough information.
