qreal change in Qt 5.2
Hi, qreal is a Qt typedef that used to be defined as float on ARM and double on all other platforms. However, since Qt 5.2 release candidate 1, qreal is double everywhere (in Debian we are considering to keep it double on armel, but that isn’t relevant to Ubuntu). Please be prepared to update your packages if they rely on the old behaviour. We will probably need to do a transition (i.e. rebuild everything that has armhf binaries), however the problem is that upstream did not bump the SONAME of Qt libraries, so we are considering doing the bump as a Debian/Ubuntu-specific change. Feel free to express your opinion about (not) bumping the SONAME at http://bugs.debian.org/731261 (that bug also contains links to previous discussions on this subject). -- Dmitry Shachnev signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel

Desktop Icon placement on xfce4
I was hoping somebody can answer a question for me: lately, whenever I reboot, my desktop icons are bunched up on the left side of the screen and not where I left them. I noticed in my ~/.config.xfce4/desktop folder are several icons.screen0* files with resolutions that don't even exist: icons.screen0-1258x890.rc icons.screen0-1424x835.rc icons.screen0-1904x1015.rc icons.screen0-1904x1064.rc icons.screen0-1920x1080.rc The resolution I am using is 1920x1080. This file has the correct icon locations and after clicking F5 everything appears fine. The other files have the icon locations bunched on the left. My questions are: 1) which .rc file is used when initially logging in after a reboot and why? 2) why are there .rc files which indicate screen resolutions that do not even exist (like 1904x1015) ? BTW, I for now fixed the problem by copying the good .rc file under all the other names but I'd still like to understand what is going on Thanks all -- Lutz Andersohn lutz.anders...@gmail.com (925) 784 1565 D-19318, AFF-I http://www.linkedin.com/pub/1/b65/2b6 Public key ID: 0x9620D1A6 -- xubuntu-devel mailing list xubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel

And yes, it is also in main via desktop-common.

I'd go for not bumping SONAME and doing all rebuilds at once. Debian should lead the way, and since they seem to do either this or not switch from float on arm, this seems a lot better option for the future. According to the bug report Fedora already switched without a bump. -Timo -- ubuntu-devel mailing list ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
