Stefan Dirsch 8cf76eaac9 - xorgproto 2021.2
This release is mostly all about keysyms. Some additions to Vietnamese and
Hangul but the big set of commits here is catching up with several years of
Linux kernel releases.
The kernel's evdev interface has semantic keycodes (e.g. KEY_ESC is what
you'd expect). Beyond the normal range expected to change with different
layouts there are many keycodes that should only ever do one thing.
For example, KEY_ONSCREEN_KEYBOARD should display the OSK regardless of
layout). In the past, we've added these keysyms on a as-requested basis.
We now have a reserved subrange in the already reserved range for XF86Foo
keysyms. Within that range, keysyms map directly to their evdev
counterparts, making future updates easier. The above example
KEY_ONSCREEN_KEYBOARD now has a XF86OnScreenKeyboard keysym.
The header file follows a strict convention to make this range
machine-readable, xkeyboard-config can make use of this to
make those keysyms available by default. Note that almost all keys are
outside the X keycode range so very little will change under X.
Note that most keys exist on selected devices only so the practial use is
quite limited. But those keysyms are available through normal XKB
configuration so users can re-map existing keys where needed.
Aside from those, a bit of misc cleanup work. Many thanks to all
contributors.

- xorgproto 2020.1
* This release adds a new keysym, a state-change event to the
DPMS extension, synchronizes more of the meson and autotools
build sytems, and converts some quasi-text documentation to
Markdown.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 18 10:05:56 UTC 2019 - Stefan Dirsch <sndirsch@suse.com>
- xorgproto 2019.2
* This release moves more header files to the legacy set. Note
that this means libX11 older than 1.6.9 and libXvMC older
than 1.0.12 will not build without some legacy headers installed.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jun 24 14:28:53 UTC 2019 - Stefan Dirsch <sndirsch@suse.com>
- use --enable-legacy configure option on existing products in order
not to break package builds, which still requires any of these
extensions:
* trapproto
* xf86miscproto
* xproxymngproto
deleterequests for the affected packaages have been done for factory/TW
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jun 21 10:08:56 UTC 2019 - Stefan Dirsch <sndirsch@suse.com>
- xorgproto 2019.1
* This release boasts a bunch of cleanup work and a few new
keysyms. No functional changes to any of the protocols.

Wed Jun 27 23:07:34 UTC 2018 - tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
- Obsolete protocol packages by their corresponding old package names, not by
their pkconfig(...) provides. Additionally move the obsoletes to the -devel
package to take effect.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Feb 28 20:45:12 UTC 2018 - tobias.johannes.klausmann@mni.thm.de
- Create package xorgproto with initial version 2018.4:
This package contains all previously split up xorg protocol headers in one
package (again!). Additionally this package contains two new protocol
versions required by the upcoming XServer 1.20:
+ dri3proto version 1.2
+ randrproto version 1.6
- Obsolete the old *prot packages by using the actual protocol version to keep
this package compatible with the old versioning scheme.
- "Prefer: xorgproto-devel" in the project config is required to prefer it for
now
