Package: xfwm4
Version: 4.6.2-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I tried to “xfwm4 --replace” awesome but that didn't work out, I only
got:
| ** (xfwm4:14519): WARNING **: Another Window Manager is already running

Running it inside a debugger, it appears that in src/screen.c's
myScreenSetWMAtom(), the following returns 0:
| current_wm = XGetSelectionOwner (display_info->dpy, wm_sn_atom);

maybe you want to modify the “if (current_wm)” to include that?
| else {
|   if (replace_wm) {
|     g_message ("Fails to detect a window manager to replace");
|   }
| }

Reproducible this way:
  Xephyr :1
  DISPLAY=:1 awesome &
  DISPLAY=:1 xfwm4 --replace

Mraw,
KiBi.
