            Bug ID: 227792
           Summary: x11-wm/fluxbox: newly opened applications aren't
                    managed by fluxbox after a monitor reconfiguration
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---

After reconfiguring your monitors, some newly opened applications (for exam=
ple,
QTerminal) won't be managed by fluxbox (no borders, always on top, can't be
moved or resized, and don't respect sloppy focus).  The bug was fixed in
Fluxbox ages ago, but unfortunately there hasn't been a release since then.=

Let's patch it locally.

System info:
TrueOS Edge (based on FreeBSD 12)
Fluxbox 1.3.7
Lumina Desktop Environment
QTerminal 0.8.0

Steps to reproduce:
1) Start Fluxbox
2) Open a QTerminal
3) Power off the monitor, or connect an external one
4) Wait 5 seconds
5) Power on the monitor, or remove the external one
6) Start a new QTerminal

The new QTerminal will be outside of fluxbox's control, as described.  Only
restarting Fluxbox will fix the problem.
