Description Ian Osgood 2006-12-27 09:02:26 UTC

The current tarballs for xcb-util and xcb-demo are incompatible with the recently released libxcb and 
xcb-proto, mostly due to the Great Renaming and new error handling. More projects are starting to 
depend on the util libraries: evas depends on xcb-aux and xcb-image, and cairo depends on xcb-
renderutil.

There is probably some cleanup required for this (e.g. camel case to underlines). This bug should block 
such bugs.

Another possibility is to break the more critical/mature util libraries out into their own tarballs. xcb-aux 
and xcb-renderutil come to mind.

xcb-demo still hasn't gotten a new release after the Great Renaming, but xcb-util has, and apparently nobody cares that much about the demos. :-)
