Also noticed we didn't even have a 4.18 branch for xfce4-dev-tools, so I pushed
that from the 4.18.0 tag. And it looks like there are a few bugfixes in master
since 4.18.0 that we might want to put in the 4.18 series as
Ok, sounds good, thanks for the feedback, everyone.
Alex, totally get you're uncomfortable with adding new stuff to the stable
series, but these are isolated additions, not changes to existing macros or
functionality, so I think the risk should be very low. And any app not using
them
Hi,
+1 vote for option 2, this is an exceptional situation and just adding those
macros shouldn't cause any problem if I understood it right.

Hi,
As theses are new macros, we can make an exception and backports them to xdt
4.18. Don't forget to bump minimal xdt versions in autogen :)
Yes, others distros haven't noticed the problem because they don't re run
autoreconf.

I'd vote for 2): I don't think there's much risk either and we've been testing
these macros for a while now with xfdesktop, xfce4-notifyd and more recently
xfce4-panel, at least.

Sorry, protonmail does this for me and I'm not sure I can stop it. I hope it

Hi all,
thanks for the forward Brian! As well added Skunnyk and Andre.
Personally I would go for the more conservative 1) to prevent possible
further trouble with them on the stable branch ... maybe with a comment
to swap them out for the xfce-4.20 official macros, once xfce4.20 is
released.
