This involves:
• Compiling with xcb-util instead of xcb-{atom,aux} (they merged the libraries)
• Not using xcb-{event,property} anymore (code removed upstream)
• Not using the predefined WINDOW, CARDINEL, … atoms (removed upstream)
• Using the new xcb_icccm_* data types/functions instead of just xcb_*
(for example xcb_icccm_get_wm_hints instead of xcb_get_wm_hints)
Also I refactored the atoms to use x-macros.
Even though i3 cannot know the width/height of some workspaces as
long as they are not initialized (say you used workspace 1 and 3,
but not workspace 2), some applications require this information.
In this case, it was Firefox which intersects the available workareas
(see mozilla/gfx/src/gtk/nsScreenGtk.cpp) and did not position some
windows correctly when being confronted with zero-width/height
workspaces.
Please note that rdesktop’s -g workarea option will not work on
64-bit systems at the moment because of a bug in rdesktop (see the
rdesktop-devel mailing list).
