Post subject: Patch for new libCairo / NX Crash  PostPosted: 10.05.2012, 17:37

This probably isn't the proper place to post this, but this is from the continuing discussion of the new libCairo (1.12.1+ ?) breaking things.

One of the things that libCairo breaks is NX. I developed a patch for NX that prevents it from crashing with the new libCairo.

It's a late-alpha, early-beta quality patch but it works for me. Could someone who uses NX try this? I use KDE and fixed it because I use GTK apps, so I'm especially interested in people who primarily use GTK-based desktops like Gnome and XFCE.

I use KDE as well, but I have an installation with XFCE to test it.
Because I am not experienced, can you please give a short description how to use the patch?

Please propose patches on the relevant mailinglist/bugtracker of the progam. People there know a lot better what is needed for their specific program to get the patch in and have easier ways to test it (e.g. because a bunch of testers linger on these mailinglists, too).

If you really don't know who to contact post the patch to the debian bugtracker, the maintainer of the package will know and can possibly include it in an upload for testing out.


The community here is in general to broad to help with testing of specific patches. It doesn't hurt to ask of course, but most of the users here are indeed users and not developers and/or don't know enough about the problem at hand to be helpful (e.g. i don't even know what you mean with NX…) so if you want meaningful input from here, you need to include more details than what you need to for the upstream developer community.
