This bug was fixed in the package mir - 0.1.6+14.04.20140310-0ubuntu1 --------------- mir (0.1.6+14.04.20140310-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium [ Kevin Gunn ] * Cherry-picked from future release 0.1.7: - Enhancement: options: Make it easier to customize DefaultConfiguration - Bug fix: Don't pass a parameter to bash's popd command. It doesn't expect one and will return an error from cross-compile-chroot.sh. (LP: #1287600) * New upstream release 0.1.6 (https://launchpad.net/mir/+milestone/0.1.6) - mirserver ABI bumped to 16. - Server API changes: . Report classes have moved to new namespaces/components. Please consult the server headers. . General clean-ups and virtual function changes affecting the ABI (a rebuild is required for all shells). - mirclient ABI unchanged, still at 7. Clients do not need rebuilding. - Add new feature: Screen recording ("screencasting") as demonstrated by the new mir-util "mirscreencast". - debian: Provide platform packages managed with dpkg alternatives. - Add new valgrind suppressions (mostly for armhf right now) - tools: Add new libmirclientplatform.so to install_on_android.sh. - Add "mir_demo_standalone_render_overlays", which is a free-standing example of overlay support. - Proper DisplayConfiguration for the AndroidDisplay to be better prepared for multi-monitor Android. - Commenced/continued simplifying the surface class hierarchy: BasicSurface has now absorbed SurfaceData. - Dynamically load the client platform library. - Bugs fixed: . Exceptions thrown from within compositing threads were untraceable, resulting in a bunch of undebuggable crash reports (LP: #1237332) . Ensure we close drm device file descriptors on exec. (LP: #1284081) . nested render_surfaces fails on N4 [std::exception::what: Failed to compile vertex shader:] (LP: #1284597) . examples: correct "fullscreen-surfaces" option. (LP: #1284554) . Fix mutex data race reported by helgrind in integration test: SwapperSwappingStress (LP: #1282886) . scene: Return null snapshots for sessions without surfaces (LP: #1281728) . tests: Address some raciness in MesaDisplayTest.drm_device_change_event_triggers_handler. (LP: #1283085) . tests: Suppress spurious memory errors occuring when running the unit tests on armhf with valgrind. (LP: #1279438) . Mir shows an old frame on client startup (for Mesa GL clients) (LP: #1281938) . tests: Add expectation to validate second SessionAuthorizer method is called wit correct parameter. (LP: #1218436) . Set field "current_format" when sending a display config to the server. (LP: #1277343) . Fix crash in android devices by working around a subtle threading bug, use a dummy thead_local array to push the gl/egl context TLS into a region where the future wait code does not overwrite it. (LP: #1280086) . compositor: calling SwitchingBundle::force_requests_to_complete() can be a no-op when there are no requests. (LP: #1281145) . tests: Don't emit an "add" uevent manually when adding a device (LP: #1281146) . config: reduce size of default RPC thread pool. (LP: #1233001) . Clients freeze on startup if 10 or more are already running (LP: #1267323) . Fix Nexus 10 leaking FDs in the hwc prepare/set loop. (LP: #1278658) . Parallelize page flipping with rendering of the next frame, fixing stuttering observed in multi-monitor clone mode (LP: #1213801) . Ubuntu trusty update "glm 0.9.5.1-1" broke Mir builds. Work around the change. (LP: #1285955) . Screencast feature by compositing to offscreen buffer (LP: #1207312) [ Ubuntu daily release ] * New rebuild forced -- Ubuntu daily release
