Title:
Use XCB 64-bit sequence API
Status in libx11 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
libx11 suffers from 32-bit sequence wraparound for programs that make
a large number of calls to the server. (See:
https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-October/038370.html )
The Freedesktop bug is here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71338
This was fixed with this commit:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libX11/commit/?id=a72d2d06c002b644b7040a0a9936c8525e092ba8
This fix requires libxcb >= 1.11.1 for the 64-bit sequence API. Xenial
and higher ship libxcb 1.11.1.
Can this patch be pulled into the Ubuntu package?
