Question: Do I have to rebuild it due to updates? #92

I like this. I hope the gnome maintainers would patch this into the official Mutter.

Do I have to rebuild this every time this repository updates or also when newer versions of Mutter releases?

Sadly, yes, at least on Fedora

joshcangit commented 2 years ago

Oh I see. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 so I can leave it as is right?

dawgsome commented 2 years ago

I don't know, I guess you'll see when you upgrade, but I think you'll need to rebuild it (hopefully your hardware is good enough to do that quickly)

dawgsome commented 2 years ago

In any case if you use mutter-rounded-settings your settings will be preserved

The build time was about 5-6 minutes. I also had to install 209 packages.

Anyway, thank you. You were right. There is no newer version yet. I got to wait and see. Think I was getting ahead of myself here.
