Package: libghc-xmonad-contrib-dev Version: 0.9.2-2+b1 Severity: minor
After switching to the last version of libghc-xmonad-contrib-dev, XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks.avoidStruts seems to think there's a dock on the left of the screen. It correctly avoids drawing windows over xmobar and trayer (running on the top of my screen), but also inserts a gap on the left that I can't explain. Please find attached my xmonad.hs. The same config worked well with previous installed version (libghc6-xmonad-contrib-dev 0.9.1-1+b1).
thanks for reporting the bug. Do you happen to have a non-rectangular screen, e.g. two screens of different size? There was a discussion about that on the xmonad mailing list.
Why would you think this is the reason? I'm running a dual-screen setup and occasionally run one of my monitors in landscape mode and one in portrait. I haven't noticed any problems with that. Cheers, Norbert
