[Pkg-urxvt-maintainers] Bug#764620: rxvt-unicode: borderLess incorrectly sets Override Redirect making window unusable.

[Micke Karls]

Source: rxvt-unicode
Severity: normal

Hello,

Trying to launch a terminal without window decorations using the borderLess
option in rxvt-unicode I noticed that it not only removes window decorations
but also sets "Override Redirect" which renders the window useless. 

I did some poking around in the source and saw that it checks for
_MOTIF_WM_INFO to see if "Override Redirect" should be set to make borderLess
work. Running xprop on rxvt-unicode i get no _MOTIF_WM_INFO, I do however get
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS. Altering the if-statement in init.C to check for
_MOTIF_WM_HINTS instead renders a fully usable window without window
decorations when run with borderLess option.

Best Regards,
Micke
