Subject: xlib6g: Xdefaults parser does not recognize #ifdef etc. any more
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
X-Mailer: bug 3.2.10
Delivered-To: submit@bugs.debian.org
Package: xlib6g
Version: 3.3.6-7
Severity: normal
I have .Xdefaults file with something like:
#define XAW3DCOLOR gray75
/* #define BLACK_BG_XTERMS */
/* #define RECOLOR_XPAINT */
#define RECOLOR_GHOSTVIEW
#define RECOLOR_XDVI
#ifdef COLOR
*customization: -color
#endif
[CUT]
#ifndef BLACK_BG_XTERMS
XTerm*background: white
XTerm*foreground: black
nxterm*background: white
nxterm*foreground: black
[CUT]
#else
! These defaults pulled from my /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/NXTerm
! I don't want to rely on the defaults when a define is specifically
! set for BLACK_BG_XTERMS
*VT100*colorBD: white
*VT100*colorUL: yellow
XTerm*background: black
XTerm*foreground: white
nxterm*background: black
nxterm*foreground: white
[CUT]
#endif
With 3.3.6-6 version of X it was working - that is I had white xterm's.
After todays upgrade to 3.3.6-7 it does not care about # commands at all.
That is "XTerm*background: black" is always overwriting
"XTerm*background: white". Why this feature has been removed in a frozen
release? In my opinion this is serious, unexpected incompatibility.
Best regards,
