Did not work well for me. I use tightvnc on my linux box and when I left click on a dockapp the pointer gets "attached" to it and won't release. I tried with both 0.90 and 0.91. Problem went away when i downgraded to 0.80.2.

Nope. Doesn't even cone to compile here. CONFIGUREing failed with
---------
checking for the Xft2 library... found
checking whether libXft is at least version 2.1.2... no

ERROR!!! libXft on this system is an old version.
         Please consider upgrading to at least version 2.1.2.
--------
libXft belongs to xfree. I have the latest xfree version installed
[ebuild   R   ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r7
So does windowmaker 0.90 now depend on xorg perhaps ?

Comment 5 Armando Di Cianno (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-01-05 17:00:10 UTC
windowmaker-0.91.0-r1 already marked stable on x86, and 0.90.0 had some major issues with it; closing this bug

(however, the mentioned Xft issue issue is more properly addressed in other bugs)
