Awesome v4.3 is the third release of the 4.x API. It comes after one and
a half years of little fixes and improvements. Awesome v4.2 was very
stable thanks to everybody's effort to unit test everything. Given no
major bug warranted a new release, this one adds a few large features
while preserving full compatibility with existing user configurations.
Some highlights:
- Better DPI handling
- Extendable awful.rules providers and better awful.spawn functions
- A brand new keygrabber API
- A new GTK color palette based theme
- Widgets improvements
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F

* prevent to buildlink with pango, it will be loaded vir lua-gi.
* add buildlink with libexecinfo, it is installed as a dependency of cmake now
and found by cmake. PR pkg/48717.
* set prefix of libev more closely.
Bump PKGREVISION from dependency update.
pango at runtime or it won't start.
Note: it isn't clear to me where this comes from or what the
circumstances are (the package source does not appear to refer
directly to pango) so I'm going to use buildlink rather than just
DEPENDS (which might be sufficient) out of paranoia.
PKGREVISION -> 3.
This package uses lua-gi at build time to see if it can load
cairo-gobject; this does not (AFAICT) work without buildlinking
lua-gi, and possibly not even then, and I don't want to get into that
unless necessary. So make the failure non-fatal as the package build
system suggests. (Except that the way they suggest isn't working for
some other reason, so do it forcibly.)
I am not really in a position to test it at runtime right now, so if
it doesn't work let me know. At least now the package builds.
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
