My thanks for all those who keep responding.  I don't know how to get rid of that original bug report not being a technologist.  If you know how to help me prevent further responses from others I'd appreciate it.
Thanks

Status in Inkscape: A Vector Drawing Tool: New
Status in “inkscape” source package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed
Status in “inkscape” source package in Debian: Unknown

Bug description:
Binary package hint: inkscape

Package: inkscape
Version: 0.46-2ubuntu2
Severity: important

When I try to
maximize the main window of inkscape it stays in the same
position and loses
decoration at the window sides (better explained by
the screenshot). The
system is up-to-date.
