|

This is the i3 v4.7. This version is considered stable. All users of i3 are
|
||||
strongly encouraged to upgrade.
|
||||
|
||||
This release features a number of documentation improvements, better error
|
||||
messages in various places, better tray compatibility in i3bar, and a number of
|
||||
bugfixes.
|
||||
|
||||
Relevant from a packaging point of view is that we have switched to the new
|
||||
xcb-util-cursor library to get rid of libXcursor. The last remaining big piece
|
||||
of Xlib code now is XKB, which we may be able to tackle in upcoming releases
|
||||
thanks to the just released libxcb 1.10.
