https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278148 Bug ID: 278148 Summary: Update Request: Dunst 1.9.1 to at least 1.9.2 Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: rcbell@mailinator.com I would like to request an update for the Dunst package in the FreeBSD Ports Collection (apologies if this is not the correct way to go about this - I'm new here). Currently, the version available is 1.9.1, and I would like to see it updated to at least version 1.9.2 (1.10.0 is available with additional Wayland support/fixes). Reason: The Dunst developers have released version 1.9.2, which includes bug fixes and improvements over the previous version. Specifically, there are two issues affecting me, and presumably others, that have been addressed in version 1.9.2: 1. High CPU usage when show_age_threshold = -1: The previous version (1.9.1) suffers from high CPU usage under certain conditions, particularly when the show_age_threshold option is set to -1. This issue has been reported and addressed in version 1.9.2, contributing to improved performance and stability. 2. High CPU usage in some situations, often correlated with being idle: Additionally, version 1.9.1 exhibits high CPU usage in certain situations, particularly when the application is idle. This issue, reported in ticket #1158, has been investigated and resolved in version 1.9.2, leading to a smoother user experience and reduced system resource consumption. Reproduction Steps: To reproduce the issue of high CPU usage and flickering notifications, follow these steps: 1. Install Dunst version 1.9.1 on a FreeBSD system. 2. Start Dunst if it's not already running. 3. Execute the command dunstctl history-pop to simulate popping a notification from the history. 4. Observe the CPU usage and the behavior of the notification. Dependencies: To my knowledge Dunst 1.9.2 does not have any specific dependencies beyond those already present in the FreeBSD Ports Collection. Dunst 1.10.0 may have additional dependencies, but I'm not a Wayland user. Additional Information: Dunst 1.9.2 (and 1.10.0) can be found on the official GitHub repository: https://github.com/dunst-project/dunst/releases The release notes for Dunst 1.9.2 outline the changes and improvements: https://github.com/dunst-project/dunst/releases/tag/v1.9.2 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
