various issues with i3lock-next #24

Open cortex3 opened 6 years ago

cortex3 commented 6 years ago

hi owen, It's me again, just wanted to give you a heads up about a few issues im having. When trying to launch the freshly installed i3lock i get the following error i3lock: unrecognized option '--time-font=Sans' after editing it to --timefont=Sans i get the same issue for date-font. After editing that one too I get the error i3lock: unrecognized option '--verifcolor=00000000' after commenting that line out im finally able to launch i3lock-next but the locks and dates dont seem to be centered on my 2 monitors and after exiting I get a bunch of memory leaks. The memory leaks seem to be a problem from i3lock-color. I'd debug this issue further but im not much of a programmer and don't have enough time at the moment but feel free to ask me to test something for you. I'm aware that this is a rather small project and i don't expect this to be fixed anytime soon. In the meantime I'm gonna look for a new i3lock.

I believe the issues you're experiencing were introduced in 4456c3a, which brought arguments passed to i3lock-color in line with upstream. Are you using the latest version of i3lock-color?

I was using the latest i3lock-color version from the AUR. I changed to i3lock-color-git from the AUR which resolved all of the issues besides the lock placement and date placement.
