Latest upstream release: 1.0.2 Current version/release in rawhide: 1.0.1-1.fc29 URL: https://gajim.org/ Please consult the package updates policy before you issue an update to a stable branch: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy More information about the service that created this bug can be found at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upstream_release_monitoring Please keep in mind that with any upstream change, there may also be packaging changes that need to be made. Specifically, please remember that it is your responsibility to review the new version to ensure that the licensing is still correct and that no non-free or legally problematic items have been added upstream. Based on the information from anitya: https://release-monitoring.org/project/870/ Latest upstream release: 1.0.3 Current version/release in rawhide: 1.0.1-1.fc29 URL: https://gajim.org/ Please consult the package updates policy before you issue an update to a stable branch: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy More information about the service that created this bug can be found at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upstream_release_monitoring Please keep in mind that with any upstream change, there may also be packaging changes that need to be made. Specifically, please remember that it is your responsibility to review the new version to ensure that the licensing is still correct and that no non-free or legally problematic items have been added upstream. Based on the information from anitya: https://release-monitoring.org/project/870/ Is it possible to have 1.0.x on Fedora 28? I hesitate pushing 1.0.x as an update to F28.
The move to Gtk 3 has some unpleasant consequences for the user experience:
- The status icon is not showing under Gnome/Wayland. Perhaps I will patch it to always use the x11 backend, thus making the status icon work again.
- Some UI elements are confusing, mainly the menus. It still has the menu on top of the roster AND it adds an application global menu. I see there's some upstream work going on in this area:
- Further align the design with GTK+/GNOME 3 patterns
https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/issues/9166
- confusing menu structure
https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/issues/8955
From https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy:
> Package maintainers MUST:
> [...]
> Avoid changing the user experience if at all possible.
Note that you can get Gajim 1.0.x on F28 by installing it as a flatpak from flathub.org.
I submitted Gajim 1.0.3 to F28 updates: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-dc734c9eab It is patched to avoid 3 major issues I had with it: 0001-Support-for-idle-time-under-GNOME-without-X11.patch - This patch is a trivial backport from the upstream master branch. It adds an idle detection method (for auto-away status) that works in a Gnome/Wayland session. 0002-Prefer-X11-to-Wayland-GDK-backend.patch - Gajim runs as an X11 client, for a working status icon. 0003-Do-not-use-global-app-menu.patch - Only for F28, F27. Disables the use of the global app menu. |
