Description Jordan Irwin 2014-08-09 22:19:43 UTC

Some updates for the X11 desktop LXDE (x11/lxde-meta)

x11/menu-cache: 0.5.1_2 -> 0.6.0
x11-wx/lxsession: 0.4.6.1_2 -> 0.4.9.2

CC'd maintaner.

Also, there are some components listed on the SF site that don't appear in ports. Perhaps some of these are deprecated or included within other ports but I will mention them here:

lxnm: Network manager for LXDE (probably included in x11/lxpanel).
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxde/files/LXNM%20%28network%20manager%29/

lxsession-edit: Manage desktop session autostarts.
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxde/files/LXSession%20Edit/

lxpolkit: PolicyKit authentication agent.
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxde/files/LXPolkit/

lxdm: GUI login manager for LXDE.
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxde/files/lxdm/

lxappearance-obconf: OpenBox Window Manager configuration tool (Looks like it may be the same as x11-wm/obconf but version is different. Perhaps is reworked for LXDE or is included in x11/lxde-common?).
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/lxde/files/LXAppearance%20Obconf/

Oh, lxsession-edit & lxpolkit are probably included in x11/lxde-common, but not sure.

Jordan, did you forget to add the attachment?

Comment 3 Jordan Irwin 2014-08-09 22:48:23 UTC

Should there be an attachment for update notifications? I didn't see anything about it in the guidelines: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/page.cgi?id=bug-writing.html

Also, I was only assuming that reporting port updates to the bugs was okay because I have seen others doing it.

Not, this is not ok and it's against policy now.  Bugzilla is not to be used for "hey, there's a new version available".  If you have seen this in the past, it was either in GNATs or the PR was closed quickly.

if it's a CVE security vulnerability fix, that's okay.  Regular version updates, no.
