Hi,
libxcb1.1 has a feature that checks LIBXCB_ALLOW_SLOPPY_LOCK in order
to circumvent problems with some java apps including GWT.
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xcb/libxcb.git;a=commit;h=4d828c5eba9fc7161c5f18650f2dbe218e1db06f
When I discovered this earlier on today, I was tinkering to try and
get those changes and build the packages so I could install it and try
it out. I understand how to get the libxcb code from the git
repository and how to get the current libxcb sources from the ubuntu
repositories and rebuild the packages, but I don't see how to "merge"
those changes in and build 1.1 packages. I was wondering if someone
could mentor me on this or even better if there was a way to get an
upgraded libxcb binary on the hardy repositories ? Maybe another way
would be to do a diff between that commit and the current version and
try to get that in as a patch ?
Thanks for your help !!
