• pass has been removed form click handler config options.
• apt ,dnf, pacman: Clicking on the block does not cause an update by default anymore. To replicate that behavior use

  [[block.click]]
  # Updates the block on left click
  button = "left"
  update = true

• rofication: Clicking on the block does not open rofication-gui by default anymore. To replicate that behavior use

  [[block.click]]
  button = "left"
  cmd = "rofication-gui"

• Instead of positional arguments, format templates now use named arguments, i.e. $speed_down.eng(w:3,p:K,hide_unit:true) instead of $speed_down.eng(3,_B,K). See documentation here.
• rot-str formatter has been removed. To replicate its behavior, use rot_interval argument of str. For example $ssid.str(max_w:10, rot_interval:0.2).

https://github.com/greshake/i3status-rust/commit/e00b90dca2641280fc437ce879f39501d9e51836 renamed awesome to awesome4.

1720 removed icons backlight_{empty,full,1,2,...,13}, bat_{10,20,...,90,full}, cpu_{low,med,high}, volume_{empty,half,full}, microphone_{empty,half,full}.

Don't forget to run ./install.sh. If you used to override any of these icons, override backlight, cpu, volume and microphone instead. These icons now accept a list of values, for example

cpu = [
    "\U000F0F86", # nf-md-speedometer_slow
    "\U000F0F85", # nf-md-speedometer_medium
    "\U000F04C5", # nf-md-speedometer
]

• taskwarrior: remove hide_when_zero, add format_singular and format_everything_done config options.

[MaxVerevkin]

• Sound: mappings_use_regex now defaults to true.
• block = "..." is now required to be the first field of block configs. However, an error in a block's config will not break the entire bar limitation removed in v0.31.2.

• Pacman block now creates checkup-db directory per user. This may break your scripts if they rely on the db path. Instead of /tmp/checkup-db-i3statusrs it is now /tmp/checkup-db-i3statusrs-$USER.
