xkeyboard-config 2.2

Recommended Posts

With this release, I am breaking (only once, hopefully) the sequence

of scheduled release of xkeyboard-config.

 

This release is highly recommended (realistically - required) for GNOME3.

 

The most important change in this release is totally redesigned

approach to user-visible descriptions. That huge work (reworking ALL

descriptions!) was done by William Jon McCann of RedHat.

 

After those changes were made, it took a lot of work from the

Translation Project guys to update the translations. I want to thank

all translators who found some time last week to work on

xkeyboard-config.

 

My special gratitude goes to Catalan, Danish, German, Italian, Korean,

Polish, Russian (go Russia!), Spanish, Swedish and Ukrainian

translators - they covered whopping 100% (933 lines)!

 

Additional change that might affect you: the run-time dependencies of

xkeyboard-config are checked at the build time. If that annoys you -

use --disable-runtime-deps.

 

There are also some new layouts, variants, model - usual stuff...

 

So, here it is:

http://www.x.org/releases/individual/data/xkeyboard-config/xkeyboard-config-2.2.tar.gz

 

The tag in git is xkeyboard-config-2.2

 

Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=xkeyboard-config

 

There will be another release 2.3 in May (as it was planned, 4 months

from January). It is already found that some descriptions need minor

amendments - but I do not expect that huge wave of changes that you

can see in 2.2

 

Regards,

 

Sergey
