1.1 -> 1.2 update: build fails on undocumented missing dependency about gromit-mpx

[russel]

appindicator is definitely in Debian (libappindicator3-dev), or I wouldn't be able to build Gromit-MPX. Whether Debian gets it from Ubuntu or Ubuntu gets it from Debian I am not sure. It is also in Fedora (libappindicator-gtk3-devel), though I haven't tried building it yet, I am just about to.

Well, it's a dependency. Where were those documented before?

[Vaelatern]

At build time, in the README.

[bk138]

To be clear here: I do not intend to document maybe-changing build deps in any other place than the build system itself. Feel free to open a PR removing the respective bits from the README.

@Vaelatern Did you figure out which package that is? I am not sure either which one it is on Fedora. Is it maybe a Ubuntu-only package?

[russel]

All compiles fine on Fedora but doesn't work on the Rawhide default of XWayland. Works fine(-ish, I see a bug) on Xorg.

[bk138]

@russel bug?

[russel]

@bk138 I believe so: the behaviour on Fedora/Xorg appears different (and unreasonable) compared to Debian/Xorg. In particular at the end of a simple drawing action a line from beginning to end of the newly drawn line is added in on Fedora but not on Debian. I can't follow up on this till the end of the week – I have to go somewhere for a couple of days and use Gromit-MPX a lot. On Debian. :-)

[bk138]

@russel might be #29 ?

[russel]

@bk138 Possibly, but I won't be able to investigate this properly till Friday or more likely next week. Sorry.
