pgtk: dframe-reposition-frame doesn't work

[Yasushi SHOJI]

Hi Yuuki and others,

Thank you for working on PGTK. It's great to see emacs working on
Wayland without X.

Today I noticed that the speedbar frame doesn't attach to the main frame
when I `(speedbar-get-focus)`.  Does anyone see this behaviour?

An ECM I came up with is this:

,----
| (let ((f (make-frame))
|       (c (window-frame (get-buffer-window (current-buffer)))))
|   (require 'dframe)
|   (dframe-reposition-frame f c 'left))
`----

When using pgtk, frame positioning does not work at all. See
bug#44961. This is a Wayland issue that Iʼm not sure Emacs can work
around.

The only form of frame positioning that works is when doing it for a
child frame, which I donʼt think speedbar uses.

Ah, thanks.

I didn't know we have pgtk related issues in the bts.

The pgtk branch is hosted in the Emacs repository these days, since
weʼre trying to get it ready for integration into master, hence bug
reports about it go to the Emacs bts.
