Holding back X or it's sub-components is really not an option. The applications have to keep up. xcb-util doesn't fall under my umbrella, exactly, but I do update it in Xorg sweeps on occasion. Unless the damage is widespread progress must continue. Awesome needs to be patched, updated or marked BROKEN temporarily. robert. -- Robert Noland <rnol...@freebsd.org> FreeBSD
