Please make sure the manpage for i3 will be properly created and installed in your package. -On debian, this looks like this: - - # Compilation - $(MAKE) - $(MAKE) -C man - - # Installation - $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/ install - mkdir -p $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1 - cp man/i3.1 $(CURDIR)/debian/i3-wm/usr/share/man/man1 +Please check the i3-sensible-{editor,pager,terminal} scripts and modify them if +necessary. The former two provide fallbacks in case $PAGER or $EDITOR is not +set (which might be more common than you think, because they have to be set in +~/.xsession, not in the shell configuration!) while the latter tries to launch +a terminal emulator. The scripts are most prominently used in i3-nagbar, which +alerts the user when the configuration is broken for some reason. Also, +i3-sensible-terminal is used in the default configuration. + +If your distribution has a mechanism to get the preferred terminal, such as the +x-terminal-emulator symlink in Debian, please use it in i3-sensible-terminal. + +On debian, compilation and installing the manpages looks like this: + + autoreconf -fi + mkdir -p build && cd build + ../configure + make -j8 install + +Please make sure that i3-migrate-config-to-v4 and i3-config-wizard are +installed with i3. The Perl script is necessary to (automatically) convert v3 +configs to v4. The wizard provides the possibility to create a keysym-based +config with the user’s preferred modifier and should be started on the first +start of i3 (it will automatically exit if it finds a config file).
