Subject: 24.2; emacs window shrinks automatically when opened and/or resized
Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2012 12:53:23 +0200

If I start emacs the window immediately starts to shrink.

This is emacs 24.2.1 compiled from source with no special options
(except --prefix) on Ubuntu 12.04.1 using unity. Using GTK 3.4.2 instead
of gtk2 makes no difference.

After reading #10954 I reduced the configuration to

(if (fboundp 'tool-bar-mode) (tool-bar-mode -1))
(if (fboundp 'menu-bar-mode) (menu-bar-mode -1))
(if (fboundp 'fringe-mode) (fringe-mode 0))
(if (fboundp 'scroll-bar-mode)(scroll-bar-mode -1))

and tested the effect if I disable different sets of these modes. In the
matrix each letter means the mode is disabled with the line stated above.

      s -> okay
    f   -> okay
  m     -> okay
t       -> okay
    f s -> when opened and resized
  m f s -> when opened and resized
t m f s -> when resized
t   f s -> when resized
t     s -> okay
  m   s -> okay
  m f   -> okay
t m     -> okay
t m   s -> okay

Sounds like

Are you able to test the current Emacs trunk, where that is fixed?

BTW, I think that is one to consider backporting to emacs-24 branch (if
it is straightforward to do so), just in case another release ends up
coming from there.
