Announcement: XQuartz 2.3.0 Released
I'd like to announce the availability of a new release of X11 for OSX Leopard. Version 2.3.0 is now available, and full release notes can be found here: http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X112.3.0 This version brings in a major update to the server. The server startup model has been reengineered to be more consistent with the OSX application paradigm while also allowing unix X11 applications to get what they expect. Much of the code surrounding the division of labor across the threads in the X11 server has been audited and reengineered to be more stable. Thank you very much to everyone who has helped out in testing release candidates for this release over the past two months. This has been a long road, and I am very appreciative of all the feedback and reports I've gotten along the way.

gvim works great on a ppc with this package. The postinstall still left the extra 'man 1' dir, maybe you decided not to put that in. Thanks again, mzs
Before I install, is it any different from RC7? Jamie On Jul 19, 2008, at 2:33 PM, Jeremy Huddleston wrote:

The files are the same, even up to the dangling symlink /usr/X11/share/X11/xkb/xkbcomp -> /tmp/X11apps.roots/X11apps~dst/usr/X11/bin/xkbcomp (I only detected this just now when running a diff between the two versions. It's harmless, I guess). -- Martin
That's probably a bug in the xkbcomp Makefiles that really should be fixed... sigh. I don't think xkbcomp is in x.org git yet, but if it is, I'll take a look at it soon. Thanks. --Jeremy On Jul 21, 2008, at 06:47, Martin Costabel wrote:

No, it's the same as rc7. On Jul 21, 2008, at 06:25, Jamie Kennea wrote:
