> I have wiped out everything of my system and installed just Xfce4 
> and sway (for testing Emacs PGTK).
> 
> By wiping out, I mean formatting my entire disk, then repartitioning and
> reinstallation of my new desktops and neccessary applications.
> 
> The problem still persists. I include the result of 
> report-emacs-bug with this new system with this email.

> One reason for me replying late is that I have to uninstall emacs-lucid 
> and reinstall emacs-wayland and switch to a wayland desktop, each time 
> that I want to test it. However, this time I was also busy with some other
> works.
