Request: Fluxbox 0.9.13

[Chrysaor]

Hi. Fluxbox 0.9.13 released a few days ago, any chance we can get a backport? Ubuntu repository got 0.9.11 i believe.

http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/version-0.9.php

Here is the changelog:
News in 0.9.13:

* Massive speed- and memory- improvements
* Added new Buttons for the Titlebar:
- Shade - just like the "Stick"-button
Style resources:
window.shade.pixmap, window.shade.unfocus.pixmap, window.shade.pressed.pixmap
window.unshade.pixmap, window.unshade.unfocus.pixmap, window.unshade.pressed.pixmap
etc.
- MenuIcon - click on it provides the windowmenu, if the app
contains a pixmap (gvim, konqueror etc etc) the pixmap is displayed, a
little menu otherwise.
Style resources:
window.menuicon.pixmap, window.menuicon.unfocus.pixmap
window.menuicon.pressed.pixmap
etc.
Example ~/.fluxbox/init - entry:
session.titlebar.left: MenuIcon Stick
session.titlebar.right: Shade Minimize Maximize Close
* Added more Key Actions to TextBoxes
- Control + LeftArrow - Moves cursor to the left direction, up to next word.
- Control + RightArrow - to the right direction.
- Control + BackSpace - Removes everything from the cursor left side, up to next left word.
- Control + Delete - like above but removes to the right direction.
* Added some style resources:
- menu.hilite.submenu.pixmap:
- menu.hilite.selected.pixmap:
- menu.hilite.unselected.pixmap:
* Added new Iconbar Modes:
- NoIcons - all but iconified windows
- WorkspaceNoIcons - all but iconified windows on the current Workspace
* Added -screen <"all"|int[,int]> :
$> fluxbox -screen 0,2 will run fluxbox on 0.0 and 0.2 so
one can run any other wm on 0.1.
$> fluxbox -screen all default, fluxbox manages all screens
* fluxbox-generate_menu now can add pixmaps to menu entries

Only 0.9.12 in Ubuntu Breezy or Sid dist pools. I will keep my eye open for it.

Fluxbox 0.9.12 from Sid depends on libfontconfig1 (>= 2.3.0), and Hoary has 2.2.3-4ubuntu7. No plans to update it. Sigh.

any use to you ? probably needs alot of ubuntu tweaking

[darkaudit]

I posted the question about libfontconfig1 on the blog. I doubt that we'll see anything new for Ubuntu until Breezy is released.

That annoyed me quite a bit, because adesklets requires the new version aswell.

Was looking forward to using the new flux aswell. =(

Hmm, I'll play with it a bit, and see if I can apply 0.9.12 patches to 0.9.13.

Ok, I have it backported and uploaded to staging, but do test it out --

There was a svnversion() function not defined, and I had to stick it in an h-file myself. Test all aspects of Fluxbox.

Sorry to resurrect an oldish thread, but - has this version of Fluxbox got Xinerama support compiled in? If not, im assuming that the libraries that I would need to use/compile it are in the backports repo?

Thanks :)
