Preparing for libX11 1.6.13
Xlib has seen some useful changes get merged since 1.6.12 and I'm wondering if others agree that we might want to do a 1.6.13 in the near future.h? I'd like to do a release in the next week or so, mostly to avoid having the charge from recent activity leak away. We've got one more important locking/threading fix which hasn't been merged: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/merge_requests/53 This MR is a slight variant on another MR which addresses the same issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/merge_requests/34 At this point, the only thing I feel blocks these MRs is figuring out how to assign credit appropriately (!34 represents the bulk of the work, !53 makes the patch cleaner and easier to reason about for me, at least). Aside from that, there's this MR: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/merge_requests/24 This adds some compose key entries for a new French keyboard layout. I don't feel competent attempting to review that as it appears that it may cause problems for existing users. So I'd suggest leaving that pending until it has been carefully reviewed. Here's the issues that I think are fixed in current master: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/121 _XReply deadlock https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/95 Hang in XIQueryDevice -> _XReply https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/93 Hanging on recursive _XReply() invocation https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/25 Deadlock in _XReply when recursing through _XSeqSyncFunction Here's the issues that I think will be resolved by a release that includes MR !53 above: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/26 And here are links to more bugs that may be related to this: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/2767 https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/1962 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/1782984 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/1808710 -- -keith signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ xorg-devel@lists.x.org: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel

Thanks for thinking about what the version number should be. I've updated the subject line accordingly. -- -keith signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ xorg-devel@lists.x.org: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: https://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
