[Bug 94345] superkaramba causes xscreensaver error messages

[Hein Zelle]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: superkaramba

When running xscreensaver together with superkaramba, I get many of the
following error messages displayed by xscreensaver when it is active:

unrecognized ClientMessage "_NET_RESTACK_WINDOW" received for window
(superkaramba / Superkaramba)

The error mesage is not exact as I can't copy/paste from the
xscreensaver display, but it's about right.

There are a few bug reports in debian about this, for the xscreensaver
package.  The xscreensaver author suggests (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=109453 at the bottom) that this is a problem with
the client program doing bad things, in this case superkaramba.

I've tried to send this report to the upstream author at
adam at rootnode.org, but their mailbox is full and the mail was bounced.
