Nobody says it useless. It's just yet another redundant dependency. Whole backend is just an example of using glitz to accelerate RENDER extension with OpenGL. All main distros are aware of it and nobody ships cairo with glitz backend these days. Even more glitz is slowly becoming obsolete, there are better 'not heavily bound to hardware' ways to accelerate RENDER. > > Not even in PLD repo > > Being or not in PLD repo has nothing to do. Can say same about "is not useless". Pushing it in AC will make every single gtk+ app depending on glitz, but none of those apps will *ever* make use of it. -- Fryderyk Dziarmagowski _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
