[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#710932: virtualbox: VirtualBox raises its own windows on click

[Will Aoki]

Package: virtualbox-qt
Version: 4.1.18-dfsg-2+deb7u1
Severity: normal

After upgrading from squeeze to wheezy, VirtualBox now raises windows showing
virtual machines when I click on them, rather than allowing the window manager
to decide if the window should be raised.

This happens if I click in the area that's showing the virtual machine, but not
if I click on e.g. the menu bar.

This behavior makes VirtualBox very difficult to use, as it's no longer willing
to share the screen with other programs.
