What do you mean? Is the patch already included in v2.0.x-r6970?
Nope. I have no idea what they're waiting for :s.
AFAIU, FLTK-2.0 is dead and will seldom update. All the effort is concentrated in 1.3.x which they plan to release soon.
FLTK development is puzzling... they have several development trees since many years now, none of which had a release yet. Heck, they have plans for FLTK 3.x!? This development practice seems to suggest that dependent projects rather include snapshots of FLTK in their source... And, how "soon" will that FLTK 1.3 release happen so that dillo might switch to something "stable"?
This specific case might just mean that I'll add an optional patch to the fltk2-package of my distro to include horizontal scrolling, though. But it would be better if upstream did this, of course.
Some fltk developers still seem to care a bit about fltk2, so maybe some cheering about the patch on the fltk list might help to get it in eventually. Cheers, Johannes
