Changelog for libX11-data-1.8.1-6.2.noarch.rpm :

* Mon Dec 05 2022 Stefan Dirsch - Update to version 1.8.1 This release fixes the --enable-thread-safety-constructor option to the configure script to work as intended. In the previous release, the changes for this option may not have been enabled when the option was not specified or when the --enable option was specified. While we have enabled it by default, believing that doing so will reduce the number of bugs users encounter running libX11 clients, in some cases it may expose bugs in which clients had previously gotten away with calling libX11 functions while a libX11 lock is already held, and thus now deadlock, as discussed in https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/157- let\'s hope this version doesn\'t suffer yet from the regressions reported in boo#1205778, boo#1205818 (reported against 1.8.2); we need libX11 thread safe for totem (GNOME 43) :-(
* Mon Dec 05 2022 Stefan Dirsch - going back to version 1.7.5 for now to get rid of regressions, which were introduced by trying to get thread-safe in libX11 itself- re-introduced U_fix-a-memory-leak-in-XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback.patch which was not yet in 1.7.5- supersedes the following patches
* U_0001-Add-XFreeThreads-function.patch
* U_0002-Don-t-use-pragma-inside-a-function-it-breaks-compili.patch

* U_0005-ChkIfEv.c-fix-wrong-handling-of-dpy-in_ifevent.patch
* Sat Dec 03 2022 Stefan Dirsch - U_0001-Add-XFreeThreads-function.patch U_0002-Don-t-use-pragma-inside-a-function-it-breaks-compili.patch U_0003-Fix-797755-Allow-X-IfEvent-to-reenter-libX11.patch U_0004-Indentation-fixes-around-recent-dpy-in_ifevent-chang.patch U_0005-ChkIfEv.c-fix-wrong-handling-of-dpy-in_ifevent.patch
* adding all patches since 1.8.2 release in order to try fixing regressions after introducing thread safety constructor with 1.8.1 (boo#1205778, boo#1205818)- supersedes U_Fix-797755-Allow-X-IfEvent-to-reenter-libX11.patch- re-enabled thread safe constructor
* Fri Dec 02 2022 Stefan Dirsch - back to \"--disable-thread-safety-constructor\" for now; we see just too many regressions, e.g. firefox freezes and crashes, crashes with barrierc, crashes in Godot, assertions with vkquake (boo#1205818, boo#1205778)
* Sat Nov 26 2022 Stefan Dirsch - U_Fix-797755-Allow-X-IfEvent-to-reenter-libX11.patch
* fixed Firefox freezes (regression since 1.8.2) (boo#1205778)
* Fri Nov 11 2022 Stefan Dirsch - Update to version 1.8.2
* This is primarily a bug fix release, including further work on improving the thread-safety-constructor and making it work with software which had incorrectly called libX11 functions from inside X
*IfEvent() calls.- supersedes U_fix-a-memory-leak-in-XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback.patch
* Wed Oct 19 2022 Stefan Dirsch - U_fix-a-memory-leak-in-XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback.patch
* security update for CVE-2022-3554 (bsc#1204422)
* Thu Jun 09 2022 Stefan Dirsch - Update to version 1.8.1 This release fixes the --enable-thread-safety-constructor option to the configure script to work as intended.

* Fri Apr 29 2022 Stefan Dirsch - Update to version 1.8
* The highlight of this release is that we now try to initialize thread safety ourselves, rather than hope the application does it. This should resolve a number of long-standing bugs with the libxcb integration, since the socket handoff mechanism essentially has to be thread-safe.
