1 Dear package maintainer,
3 thanks for packaging i3. By doing so, you are improving your distribution
6 Please read the file DEPENDS now, so you know which libraries are necessary
7 and where to get them from if your distribution does not already have
10 Please make sure the manpage for i3 will be properly created and installed
13 Also please provide the path to a suitable terminal emulator which is installed
14 as a dependency of your package (e.g. urxvt). On systems which have a special
15 commend to launch the best available terminal emulator, please use this one
16 (e.g. x-terminal-emulator on debian).
18 On debian, this looks like this:
21 $(MAKE) TERM_EMU=x-terminal-emulator
25 $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/ install
26 mkdir -p $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
27 cp man/*.1 $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1
29 Please make sure that i3-migrate-config-to-v4.pl and i3-config-wizard are
30 installed with i3. The Perl script is necessary to (automatically) convert v3
31 configs to v4. The wizard provides the possibility to create a keysym-based
32 config with the user’s preferred modifier and should be started on the first
33 start of i3 (it will automatically exit if it finds a config file).
35 If you have any questions, ideas, hints, problems or whatever, please do not
36 hesitate to contact me. I will help you out. Just drop me an E-Mail (find the
37 address at http://michael.stapelberg.de/Kontakt, scroll down to bottom),
38 contact me using the same address in jabber or ask on our IRC channel:
39 (#i3 on irc.twice-irc.de).
41 Thanks again for your efforts,
