Window Maker users, test this please! [Uploaded wmaker 0.50.2-0.0.4 (source i386) to master]



I put some notes on the upload announcement, but I guess most people don't
read debian-devel-changes...  I'm attaching the message.

TIA,

						Marcelo

More stuff for ppl to test.  Again, this is going to unstable only.  I
have spent a couple of hours testing and poking this version (and
fixing some bugs, too).  Some of the debian-specific bugs in 0.20.3
are fixed, and many of the not debian-specific bugs in 0.20.3 are
solved, too.  I'd like to hear from ppl using this version, because I
have a few choices regarding 0.20.3 in slink:

1. Backport *plenty* of stuff to wmaker 0.20.3 (which I fear would
   introduce more bugs)

2. Bop the release manager with a huge brick in order to get 0.50.2 in
   slink <g>

3. Put 0.19.3 back in slink

Of those options I like 2. the best, and *yes*, I'm well aware of the
no new code in slink rule.  The 0.20.3 -> 0.50.2 patch is NOT trivial
(arround 11k lines), but *most* of the new code is enabled *only* if
you specify some ./configure options, or modify src/wconfig.h to
include some extra features.

Option 1. isn't a pretty picture because of the previously mentioned
size of the patch.

Option 3. would be a leap of faith.  *FOR ME*, 0.19.3 doesn't seem any
more stable than 0.20.3 (I might even dare to say it's less stable);
some others ppl's opinion seems to be different.

0.50.3 is in the works, and it will fix a couple of annoying
"cosmetic" bugs.

So, that's it.  Enjoy... and test!

                                                Marcelo
