Package: grace
Version: 1:5.1.25-7+b1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
xmgrace's UI got slightly inferior since version 1:5.1.25-6: The menu
accelerators have dissapreared, the font is less fitting.
Actually, I beg to differ regarding bug #727796 and its fix. The Xresources
hardcoded in xmgrace.c are *fallback* resources, employed via
XtAppSetFallbackResources(). They can be and *are* overriden by user specified
Xresources (I don't know why this didn't work in the bug reporter's case).
What's a bit annoying: *All* of them are dismissed as soon as a resource file
is given, even an empty one.
This can be verified nicely in version 1:5.1.23-3: Without an
/etc/X11/app-defaults/XMgrace, the UI has colors, a nice font, and menu
accelerators. With an empty /etc/X11/app-defaults/XMgrace, it is b/w, has a
monospaced font and no menu accelerators. Unfortunately, with the
/etc/X11/app-defaults/XMgrace shipped since version 1:5.1.23-6, it has colors,
but still the monospaced font and still no menu accelerators. This I consider a
regression.
My suggestion: Don't cripple the fallback resources in the code and instead of
supplying a deficient /etc/X11/app-defaults/XMgrace, provide an example in the
docs. The example file could contain precisely the fallback values, then the
user could edit just the relevant bits.
