I've no idea if I'm supposed to answer this via email or some other way :D My answer is "no", i don't want to merge gtk3-no_deadkeys_underline into gtk3- classic People can use gtk3-classic, it's probably better maintained and tested than gtk3-no_deadkeys_underline, but I am personally not interested in all those other patches, i'm just interested in the no_deadkeys one, which I created for me to use, i only put it in AUR because others asked me to. If it is really necessary I'm open to amending the Description to somehow mention gtk3-classic Cheers, Albert El dijous, 21 de desembre de 2023, a les 15:00:23 (CET), notify@aur.archlinux.org va escriure:

MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge gtk3-no_deadkeys_underline [2] into gtk3-classic [3]:

I propose this package merge, as 'gtk3-classic' is a community- maintained, GitHub CI-tested modded fork of gtk3, and it includes the no_deadkeys_underline patch, as well as others which are intended to undo upstream's anti-traditional-desktop changes. [a]

It gets promptly updated whenever there's a new upstream change, like yesterday's version bump from 3.24.38 to 3.24.39.

The latter is also built without the unnecessary 'tracker3' dependency.

I think users would definitely benefit from having a streamlined experience instead of being offered the choice of piecemeal gtk3 forks on AUR.

gtk3-classic's upstream also has an issue tracker where users can submit suggestions, feature requests and bugs. PR's are also welcome.

I've been using gtk3-classic for more than a year now and it is a smooth experience for me on KDE Plasma desktop.

Note: there's also a variant of gtk3-classic tailored for the Xfce desktop: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gtk3-classic-xfce
