Submitted. * 005_Compose_fix_latin1_UTF8.diff Updated, should be pushed upstream. IIRC comments were taken from XEmacs mailing list, but I cannot find the exact message, it was something along http://list-archive.xemacs.org/xemacs-beta/200505/msg00113.html Thank you for the update! Submitted. * 006_tailor_pt_BR.UTF-8_Compose.diff Updated, should be pushed upstream (and better yet, put locale path into nls/pt_BR.UTF-8/Compose.pre at compile time) Thank you again! Submitted. * 007_iso8859-15_Compose_fix.diff * 008_remove_ko_Compose.diff * 012_ru_RU_UTF-8_XLC_LOCALE.diff I will check these 3 patches later. Eugene could surely tell more about the last one, IIRC he made this patch. Ok, they apply cleanly here, although for git they need some amount of work, possibly just sequential ordering. I'll hold off until Eugene gives the word. * 009_iso8859-15_Compose_Eurosign.diff Should certainly be pushed upstream. Done. * 011_stolen_from_ubuntu_xlocalelibdir.diff Seems to have been merged upstream. Great! Thank you once again! I'll be uploading the new libx11 to experimental shortly. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
libx11 1.0.3 and nls patches
Hi everyone, This mail is primarily for Denis, but anyone who knows more about the localization aspects of libx11 than I do (which is just about everyone) should feel free to weigh in. We've got a lot of very heavyweight patches to libx11 that we're carrying around. I can push them to upstream so we don't have to maintain them ourselves, but they need to be updated so they apply cleanly. Many of them are fairly old and I don't know if they're obsolete or what. Denis, if you could have a look at the patches in branches/7.1/libx11/debian/ patches and let me know which can be tossed and which need updating, that'd be great. If you could possibly update them so I can push them too, that'd be fantastic. I can update them myself, but I really don't know much about the locale stuff, and several of the changes to the upstream data files make me uneasy about simply porting the patches. If you're busy, a push off in the right direction would be very helpful too. - David Nusinow -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
