Bug#363507: Xft needlessly depends on x-dev

2006-04-19 Thread Ross Burton
Package: xft
Version: 2.1.8.2-7
Severity: normal

xft build-depends on x-dev, and libxft-dev depends on x-dev.  x-dev is
simply a transitional package that depends on x11proto-core-dev, and
both the build-depends and libxft-dev runtime depends include
libx11-dev, which also depends on x11proto-core-dev.  Thus, all
occurances of x-dev can be removed from the xft package.

Bug#259740: Windows key no longer treated as modifer, just as Super_L

2004-08-31 Thread Ross Burton
I'm still seeing this bug with XFree86 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6ubuntu11 (synced to
SVN trunk @ r1777).  Fabio M. Di Nitto told me to follow up as this
should have been fixed.

I have a normal British "Windows" keyboard with the Windows/Menu keys,
configured like this:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier  "Generic Keyboard"
Driver  "keyboard"
Option  "CoreKeyboard"
Option  "XkbRules"  "xfree86"
Option  "XkbModel"  "pc104"
Option  "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection

xmodmap says this:

$ xmodmap
xmodmap:  up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):

shift   Shift_L (0x32),  Shift_R (0x3e)
lockCaps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25),  Control_R (0x6d)
mod1Alt_L (0x40),  Alt_L (0x7d),  Meta_L (0x9c)
mod2Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4Super_L (0x7f),  Hyper_L (0x80)
mod5Mode_switch (0x5d),  ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)

Not totally understanding the X keyboard model, I'll try and explain
what happens.

My Metacity is configured to switch workspaces on super-arrows.  When I
let go of the super/Windows key I'd expect the workspace switching popup
to go, but it persists until I press it again, as if it wasn't a
modifier key.

The magic xmodmap line:

  xmodmap -e 'clear mod4' -e 'add mod4 = Super_L'

fixes this temporarily.

My GNOME keyboard settings applet says that "super is mapped to the
Windows key" is the default setting.

Pressing and releasing the left Windows key in xev produces these:

KeyPress event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x301,
root 0x8e, subw 0x0, time 1593258, (104,3), root:(108,539),
state 0x0, keycode 115 (keysym 0xffeb, Super_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 26, synthetic NO, window 0x301,
root 0x8e, subw 0x0, time 1593375, (104,3), root:(108,539),
state 0x40, keycode 115 (keysym 0xffeb, Super_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:  ""

When I go to the GNOME keybindings applet to configure a super-key
combination, when I press the super key it doesn't wait for a key along
with the modifier, but stops at "Super_L".  If I use Meta it waits for
me to hit another key and will display something like "5".

Anything else I can do to help debug this?

I'd prefer not to pin all of experimental, so that evil script looks
like a better solution.

The script is better than the script Jeff Waugh mailed me, which scanned
parsed the output of dpkg -l...

I suggest that both of these are documented in the x-window-system-core
(or wherever is more relevant) package, in an FAQ or README.

Bug#225811: Should depend on exact versions

2004-01-01 Thread Ross Burton
Package: x-window-system
Version: 4.3
Severity: wishlist

It would be great if x-window-system-core (etc) depends on exact versions of
packages (i.e. xlibs 4.3.0pre1v5), so that:

  apt-get install x-window-system-core/experimental

upgraded all core X packages from experimental. At the moment that command
simply upgrades the x-window-system-core package, but not the dependencies.
