[Bug 1750322] Re: Tilix Background Transparency

 

enc is a git format-patch from the upstream tilix project that resolves
this issue - I have added the DEP3 header.

 -
https://github.com/gnunn1/tilix/commit/3a7d8e0d31eba62e4bbef0f68006ea28e2a93a0d

The issue occurs because Tilix v1.7.5 is using an API that was
originally available in vte2.91 before the beta release.

The beta release  of vte that is now in bionic-proposed has removed this
API call.  It was fixed in the upstream Tilix project but I understand
that a formal release of Tilix will not be made until approx 14th March.

If Ubuntu intend to take this newer version then great.  If not, this
patch should be applied.

This has been tested by enabling bionic-proposed, installing the vte
libraries and the latest tilix. Confirmed the transparent observation.

Then pull-lp-source tilix and applied the patch to debian/patches before
debuild -us -uc and installing the resulting .deb's that were created.
