Audacity 2.4.1_3 (maybe via wxWidgets-gtk3 and / or wxWidgets-common) stealing focus #46442
Comments
Out of curiosity, can you test Tenacity from my template https://github.com/tranzystorek-io/void-packages/tree/tenacity/srcpkgs/tenacity to see if it has the same bug? |
The build process is failing because the dependencies libsbsms-devel and portsmf-devel are missing. |
Ah, sorry, forgot to mention, those templates are on that |
Ah, ok, I was looking in the root branch, that why I couldn't find them. Well, unfortunately, the problem of stealing focus is the same as with audacity. So, the problem is probably with wxWigets. Audacity (or Tenacity) would be the only packages that need wxWidgets on my system, hence no other application changed their behavior after the update of the mentioned wxWidgets* packages. |
Looks like audacity updated to 3.x a bit back. |
The issue is the same in v3, but as v2.4.1 was build against two different versions of wxWidgets, showing that it is not an issue of Audacity but apparently of wxWidgets. I never managed to build audacity v3 against the old version 3.0.5 of wxWisgets, thus I couldn't double-check or use a "sane" variant of audacity v3, nor was I able to pin down the wxWidgets version when things went south. |
Is this a new report?
Yes
System Info
Void 6.3.13_2 x86_64 GenuineIntel uptodate hold rrmDDFFFFFFFFF
Package(s) Affected
audacity-2.4.1_3.x86_64
Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?
I haven't found any in a quick web search.
Expected behaviour
When minimizing the window or just pulling another window to the front, audacity shouldn't push itself to the front after finishing some action but stay in the background / minimized.
Actual behaviour
With audacity-2.4.1_3 as opposed to audacity-2.4.1_2 the program is stealing the focus of whatever other window is in the forefront - or restoring the program window if it was minimized - whenever audacity is finished doing some task (saving a file, changing the volume etc.).
This is highly annoying behavior when working on some other program.
Downgrading audacity to 2.4.1_2 (and the dependencies it depends on: wxWidgets-gtk3 and wxWidgets-common) "solves" this issue.
Maybe the culprit is wxWidgets, but I don't know how to test that as the two revisions of audacity depend on a different version of wxWidgets, so I can't mix and match - unless maybe compiling them against the different wxWidgets packages (in my case I have 3.0.5.1_6 and 3.2.2.1_.1).
