wlroots 0.14.0 is coming to rawhide
by Aleksei Bavshin
Greetings,
wlroots 0.14.0 was released this week with a lot of bugfixes, new pixman
software renderer for not-so-recent hardware and continuation of
renderer refactoring. As usual, the update is API and ABI breaking and
all dependent packages must be rebuilt.
I'll be taking care of all rebuilds except `cage`, `labwc` and
`wayfire`. I'll notify maintainers of those packages additionally (and
send a PR with compatibility patches for `labwc`) once the side-tag is
ready.
`phoc` will continue using wlroots0.12 compat package; no actions
required here.
Rawhide update ETA is in a week from this message or when all the
required builds are complete.

config: Don't modify upstream config file
by Delta Echo
Sway's default config file provided by upstream sets a background
image, the image is provided as part of the sway package and it is
placed in the correct location.
But the default config file for Sway shipped by Fedora modifies it and
points to a file that doesn't come with the Sway package, which causes
Sway to display an error after it launches.

User Friendly Wofi Documentation
by Onyeibo Oku
Hi,
Nice to see movement towards a Sway spin, finally. Although I am kinda
satisfied with rudimentary settings (tty login and no-fancy apps like
aerc email client, and claws-mail for example).
Eventually, there is more to a Spin than few individual preferences. I
discovered Wofi (the Rofi-like launcher built for wlroots). I want give
it a try but I don't know where to start. I learned Rofi from
thinkering with published themes and configuration files.
Is anyone here using Wofi? How did you do it?
Regards
