Describe the bug

Launching GUI apps from the snap version of Alacritty 0.12.3 causes them to be treated as sub-windows of the Alacritty window from which they were launched. Tested on Ubuntu LTS 22.04.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Ubuntu LTS 22.04
  2. Install Alacritty via snap
  3. Launch a GUI app such as gnome-calculator.
  4. Observe that the gnome-calculator appears as a sub-window/dock item of the initial Alacrity window.

Expected behavior

The GUI apps should be treated as their own apps and appear separately from Alacritty on the dock.

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • OS: [e.g. Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS]
  • Alacritty Version: 0.12.3
  • Graphics Cards: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti

Additional context

There are many good examples and screenshots in the bug report filed under the main Alacritty project: Gnome: avoid GUI subprocesses starting as alacritty windows? #4765
alacritty/alacritty#4765
