Bug#788076: #788076: Packaged version of gtk3-nocsd (v2)
Hi Axel, There were some bugs in version 1 of gtk3-nocsd I release earlier, so I've now released version 2 upstream and also packaged that for Debian. I've uploaded the new version to mentors.debian.net: https://mentors.debian.net/package/gtk3-nocsd The library works with every Gtk+ version I could test it with, and CSDs are consistently disabled. The functionality is enabled by default on every X11 session that's not GNOME, but both the administrator and each individual user may change this to their liking. This is documented in README.Debian. I've followed your guidelines for packages you sponsor, https://people.debian.org/~abe/sponsoring/ as close as possible: - lintian: * 0 errors * 3 warnings, overridden for good reason Actually, there's only one thing, but it causes 3 warnings. See the override file for a rationale. * 0 informational messages * 1 pedantic message: no GPG signatures on upstream tarballs * the lintian error on mentors is due to the ldconfig trigger change - lintian in unstable doesn't give that error - adequate: no messages - blhc: no messages - Build system: dh(7), minimal debian/rules - debian/copyright: DEP-5 - proper symbols file for library (although it's a bit useless, because nothing is ever going to directly link against it, but policy dictates it) - library is properly Multi-Arch (thus 2 packages, one arch all for the wrapper script + Xsession.d integration, the other arch any for the library itself) It would be great if you could review this and sponsor the upload.

Bug#788076: #788076: Packaged version of gtk3-nocsd
Hi Axel, I've now figured out a way to make gtk3-nocsd work with all relevant Gtk+3 versions (including those currently in Debian stable, unstable and experimental). Since I had already reported a couple of things upstream earlier, and the original author is a bit short on time currently, he gave me upstream commit access, so I pushed that upstream and created an initial release on GitHub. I've packaged that for Debian and uploaded it to mentors.debian.net: https://mentors.debian.net/package/gtk3-nocsd I've tried to follow your guidelines in https://people.debian.org/~abe/sponsoring/ as close as possible: - no lintian errors - three lintian warnings that I override, please see the comment in the lintian-overrides file for as to why I do that - no lintian informational messages - two lintian pedantic messages w.r.t. upstream: - no upstream changelog (Ok, technically I could push a changelog upstream, but I'll only do that if there's a new release there. This is the first upstream version anyway.) - upstream releases are not gpg-signed (That would be something the original author would have to do, since it's his repository.) - adequate: no errors with the installed package - blhc: no messages - dh(7) build system with minimal debian/rules - debian/compat is 9 - debian/copyright follows DEP-5 - the preloadable library is properly Multi-Arch (thus two binary packages - one arch:all for the logic to enable preloading and one arch:any for the library itself) I've successfully build-tested the package in a clean pbuilder environment for both amd64 and i386 on all of jessie, stretch and sid. I've been using the package on my Jessie system (where the Gtk+3 version is old enough that the original version worked) for quite a couple of months now - and I've tested the package against more recent Gtk+3 versions. The package disables CSDs by default (on X11), but this is overridable by both the administrator and the user, see README.Debian for details. If GNOME is used as a session, it makes sure that CSDs are enabled, because I don't want to break the user experience of GNOME users. It would be great if you could review it. I'd like to also use git for packaging and collab-maint on alioth, but I can't create anything there myself (neither DD nor DM, although I plan to apply for DM status). It would be great if you could create a repository there and grant me access to it (my alioth username is chris_se-guest). Regards, Christian signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
