The mentioned upstream bug now has a patch linked at:
https://git.powerel.org/powerel7/gui/src/branch/master/SOURCES/i3-bar-xcb.patch

Maybe you could add this to the PKGBUILD until 4.18.3 is released?

Not pulling patches from weird upstreams, sorry.

Build i3 with the patch from the mentioned PR and tell me if it works or not please. I will probably apply the patch if upstream acks it.

It seems to resolve the problem here is the PKGFILE patch.

Too bad, today the bug reappeared once I killed my i3bar (another bug that i3bar or py3status eats all my Xorg CPU time). So the patch does not fix this completly.

Another update with the stable patch that replicates what the first patch does remove before destruction it works:

Pushed 4.18.2-2 with patch applied. Please make sure it works.

Thanks a lot works like charm, one bug less to care about. Now I have to find the py3status module that is going havoc after a few hours.
