https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D279712 Bug ID: 279712 Summary: x11-wm/hikari: mark DEPRECATED but without EXPIRATION_DATE Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ashish@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jbeich@FreeBSD.org CC: raichoo@googlemail.com Flags: maintainer-feedback?(ashish@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: ashish@FreeBSD.org Maybe recommend Wayfire due to similar license and window management. Also packaged on OpenBSD which may help migrating OpenBSD <-> FreeBSD. Current hikari upstream is dead: - the last commit from 2022-01-13 - has many bugs as Wayland ecosystem evolves (Xwayland is probably fine) - uses wlroots directly instead of wlr_scene (to reduce API churn) - depends on obsolete wlroots version (high API churn) - does raichoo (project author) still use FreeBSD? - are there actively developed forks? See also https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/299724 https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/how-to-dpms-off-with-wayland-compositors= -especially-hikari.92727/#post-647462 This is from "new users" POV and NOT a proposal to remove hikari. I don't f= ind wlroots015 hard to maintain as being written in C rather than C++ makes it = less likely to break on base Clang upgrades, and the libraries it depends on have stable API. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
