qubes-gui-daemon 4.1.22 breaks seamless mode in Windows 7 qubes

[GWeck]

Qubes OS release

R4.1.1

Brief summary

If dom0 is updated from the current-testing repository, qubes-gui-daemon is upgraded from version 4.1.21 to version 4.1.22. After this, any window of a Windows 7 VM running in seamless mode is empty.

Steps to reproduce

Update dom0 from the current-testing repository and observe that the version of qubes-gui-daemon has changed. Then start some application in a Windows 7 VM running QWT 4.1.68.

Expected behavior

The window of this application should show its content as it did before.

Actual behavior

The window just shows the border created by Qubes and is empty.

Additional context

Downgrading qubes-gui-daemon to its previous version via sudo qubes-dom0-update --action=downgrade qubes-gui-daemon restores the previous correct behavior.

Is there a way to stop the update of just this one component, even if the current-testing repository for dom0 is activated?

Can you enable debugging for this VM ("debug" property) and share /var/log/qubes/guid.<vmname>.log?

[DemiMarie]

This is almost certainly due to QubesOS/qubes-gui-daemon@b3bd97c.

[GWeck]

@marmarek As far as I can see it, that log is empty.

Hopefully, the issue is solved now. It went in the direction that @DemiMarie described, which I suspected, too.

Thanks a lot for your quick and competent help !!!
