I'm using Mac OS v10.15.6 with a 12" system and found the following regressions in v2.8.0_rc4 from v2.7.11:
1. XQuartz does not switch to the foreground when launched. I have to go to the dock and click to bring it to the foreground.
Seems to work for me.
2. I'm unable to launch X windows apps from a 'ssh -X host' session, i.e. 'ssh -X host xclock' cannot create an X connection. Launching an X app from XQuartz using the drop down app option Terminal does work. I have .ssh/config = "XAuthLocation /opt/X11/bin/xauth; ForwardX11Trusted yes".
Again, works for me.
3. I use Edwin (scheme -edit) which is like Emacs. My Edwin keybindings for Meta-W (copy) no longer work. So I think something in the keymap changed.
The keymap should be the same.
Can you debug these issues and file tickets with any additional data you have?
What data can I provide and how is it gathered? For the keymaps do you know the best way to compare? It seems the path is OSX -> X-Windows -> Linux -> Emacs.
I'd probably start by looking at `xmodmap -pk` and then comparing that in the good/bad cases.
I'm also confused why XQuartz 2.7.11 asked me to install a newer version (available), however this new version is still in Beta.
That was because 2.7.11 unfortunately subscribed to the beta feed. That being said, I just released 2.8.0 last night, so you should try with that.
I will perform some comparisons again, but want to make sure I'm gathering the right data. Are you using a small screen size? I ask because I had prior occasions where it's geometry caused bugs that the developers missed on big screens.
Thanks
Hope this helps!
