sawfish-gnome2



Christian, have you got any plans in the near future for packaging a
version of Sawfish compiled for Gnome2?

I've been using Metacity so far and while I like it (especially how fast
it runs), but it seems to have a couple of showstopper bugs as far as
using it on my desktop are concerned - namely that it's not real stable
and seems unable to actually get itself respawned by gnome-session2.
Having your WM die and not restart because you changed a font isn't my
idea of a fun time.  ;)


I am told that Sawfish isn't any more stable when compiled for Gnome2, but
at least it's behaving with session management.  If you're still a bit
reluctant to work on this one soon, I do have some familiarity with the
package (though I haven't played with its internals for more than a year
now) and would not mind building a recent CVS version against Gnome2 libs
for experimental.

<Joey> knight: sure, that's why we work on Debian.
<JHM> Knghtbrd: get in touch with your inner nutcase.
