Hello, ... I have packaged GRandrApplet (renamed gnome-randr-applet) which is an applet for changing the resolution using the randr extension.
Now, this will work (and build) only with the 4.3.0 version of X, as the randr is not supported in earlier versions. So i have added a build-dependency on xlibs-dev (>> 4.3.0), and added a shlibs override to make the dependency of libXrandr be xlibs (>> 4.3.0). So, what am i to do with this package ? If i upload it, it will not be installeable with the current debian unstable, but will work with daniel stone's X packages. It will also fail to build for all the autobuilders, as there is no 4.3.0 package. That said, it will still be of value for all debian's users which uses daniel stone's 4.3.0 package, or maybe even for those who run self built 4.3.0 packages (altough they would need to override the dependencies), and i think there is value of having it in the archive (be it only so other people don't repackage it and such). And anyway, this package will not enter testing until XFree86 4.3.0 does. Also, i think there is plan for packaging 4.3.0 for sarge, isn't it ? Or will the time to the sarge release be to short for that ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
