<br>Ok I'll ask around ubuntu irc to see what is the status of this issue as I know that not only xfce packages were affected.<br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>Hmm this does look wrong. I'll have a look at this later but I don't<br>understand why if we explicitly enable it, it doesn't blow up during<br>configure.</blockquote><div><br> </div><br></div>4.2.3 got ACCEPTED but on the site
4.2.2 is listed. Maybe it did blow up after all ;)<br>Seriously I don't know the reason, but since 4.2.2 libxfcegui4 did not have xinerama support<br>a few xfce packages which failed to build got their own xinerama build-dep in ubuntu . I'll wait then to see if
4.2.3 debian packages build on ubuntu, as grepping xfce sources shows that xinerama is not very much used.<br><br>thanks<br>Jani
