From me at the-compiler.org Mon Dec 19 09:01:17 2016 From: me at the-compiler.org (Florian Bruhin) Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2016 09:01:17 +0100 Subject: [qutebrowser-announce] Qt 5.7.1 released Message-ID: <20161219080117.kt7eeofqeb76apv4@tonks> Hey, just a heads-up that Qt 5.7.1 has been released. It fixes various bugs related to QtWebEngine (including security fixes), and a Qt bug causing qutebrowser to segfault on exit. If you were using my qt-debug packages on Arch because of bugfixes I backported, you can now switch back to the upstream packages.

A note for packagers: This release adds a new dependency on the QtQML module, which is also called Quick or Declarative in some distributions. Unfortunately I can't reach my Mac via SSH and I'm in another country, so it'll be a while until a OS X .app will be uploaded. The full changelog: Added ~~~~~ - *New dependency:* qutebrowser now depends on the Qt QML module, which is packaged separately in some distributions (as Qt Declarative/QML/Quick). - New `:rl-backward-kill-word` command which does what `:rl-unix-word-rubout` did before v0.8.0. - New `:rl-unix-filename-rubout` command which is similar to readline's `unix-filename-rubout`. - New `fonts -> completion.category` setting to customize the font used for completion category headers. - New `:debug-log-capacity` command to adjust how many lines are logged into RAM (to report bugs which are difficult to reproduce). - New `hide-unmatched-rapid-hints` option to not hide hint unmatched hint labels in rapid mode. - New `{clipboard}` and `{primary}` replacements for the commandline which replace the `:paste` command. - New `:insert-text` command to insert a given text into a field on the page, which replaces `:paste-primary` together with the `{primary}` replacement. - New `:window-only` command to close all other windows. - New `prev-category` and `next-category` arguments to `:completion-item-focus` to focus the previous/next category in the completion (bound to `` and `` by default). - New `:click-element` command to fake a click on a element. - New `:debug-log-filter` command to change console log filtering on-the-fly. - New `:debug-log-level` command to change the console loglevel on-the-fly. - New `general -> yank-ignored-url-parameters` option to configure which URL parameters (like `utm_source` etc.) to strip off when yanking an URL. - Support for the https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Page_Visibility_API[HTML5 page visibility API] - New `readability` userscript which shows a readable version of a page (using the `readability-lxml` python package) - New `cast` userscript to show a video on a Google Chromecast - New `:run-with-count` command which replaces the (undocumented) `:count:command` syntax. - New `:record-macro` (`q`) and `:run-macro` (`@`) commands for keyboard macros. - New `ui -> hide-scrollbar` setting to hide the scrollbar independently of the `user-stylesheet` setting. - New `general -> default-open-dispatcher` setting to configure what to open downloads with (instead of e.g. `xdg-open` on Linux). - Support for PAC (proxy autoconfig) with QtWebKit Changed ~~~~~~~ - Hints are now drawn natively in Qt instead of using web elements. This has a few implications for users: * The `hints -> opacity` setting does not exist anymore, but you can use `rgba(r, g, b, alpha)` colors instead for `colors -> hints.bg`. * The `hints -> font` setting is not affected by `fonts -> web-family-fixed` anymore. Thus, a transformer got added to change `Monospace` to `${_monospace}`. * Gradients in hint colors can now be configured by using `qlineargradient` and friends instead of `-webkit-gradient`. The most common cases get migrated automatically, but if you drastically changed the defaults, you'll need to manually adjust your config. * Styling hints by styling `qutehint` elements in `user-stylesheet` was never officially supported and does not work anymore. * Hints are now not affected by the page's stylesheet or zoom anymore. - `:bookmark-add` now has a `--toggle` flag which deletes the bookmark if it already exists. - `:bookmark-load` now has a `--delete` flag which deletes the bookmark after loading it. - `:open` now also accepts quickmark names instead of URLs - `:tab-move` now optionally takes an index for absolute moving. - Commands taking either an argument or a count (like `:zoom` or `:tab-focus`) now prefer the count instead of showing an error message. - `:open` now has an `--implicit` argument to treat the opened tab as implicit (i.e. to open it at the position it would be opened if it was a clicked link) - `:download-open` and `:prompt-open-download` now have an optional `cmdline` argument to pass a commandline to open the download with. - `:yank` now has a position argument to select what to yank instead of using flags. - Replacements like `{url}` can now also be used in the middle of an argument. Consequently, commands taking another command (`:later`, `:repeat` and `:bind`) now don't immediately evaluate variables. - Tab titles in the `:buffer` completion now update correctly when a page's title is changed via javascript. - `:hint` now has a `--mode ` flag to override the hint mode configured using the `hints -> mode` setting. - With `new-instance-open-target` set to a tab option, the tab is now opened in the most recently focused (instead of the last opened) window. This can be configured with the new `new-instance-open-target.window` setting. It can also be set to `last-visible` to show the pages in the most recently visible window, or `first-opened` to use the first (oldest) available window. - Word hints now are more clever about getting the element text from some elements. - Completions for `:help` and `:bind` now also show hidden commands - The `:buffer` completion now also filters using the first column (id). - `:undo` has been improved to reopen tabs at the position they were closed. - `:navigate` now takes a count for `up`/`increment`/`decrement`. - The `hints -> auto-follow` setting now can be set to `always`/`full-match`/`unique-match`/`never` to more precisely control when hints should be followed automatically. - Counts can now be used with special keybindings (e.g. with modifiers). This was already implemented for v0.7.0 originally, but got reverted because it caused some issues and then never re-applied. - Sending a command to an existing instance (via "qutebrowser :reload") now doesn't mark it as urgent anymore. - `tabs -> title-format` now treats an empty string as valid. - Bindings for `:`, `/` and `?` are now configured explicitly and not hardcoded anymore. - The `completion -> show` setting can now be set to `always`, `auto` or `never`. - `:open-editor` can now be used in any mode. - Lots of improvements to and bugfixes for the QtWebEngine backend, such as working hints. However, using qutebrowser directly from git is still advised when using `--backend webengine`. - `content -> javascript-can-open-windows` got renamed to `javascript-can-open-windows-automatically`. - `:prompt-accept` now optionally accepts a value which overrides the one entered in the input box. `yes` and `no` can be used as values for yes/no questions. - The new `--qt-arg` and `--qt-flag` arguments can be used to pass arguments/flags to Qt's commandline. - Error/warning/info messages are now shown stacked above the statusbar. This also added various new settings: * `colors -> messages.fg.error` (renamed from `statusbar.fg.error`) * `colors -> messages.bg.error` (renamed from `statusbar.bg.error`) * `colors -> messages.border.error` * `colors -> messages.fg.warning` (renamed from `statusbar.fg.warning`) * `colors -> messages.bg.warning` (renamed from `statusbar.bg.warning`) * `colors -> messages.border.warning` * `colors -> messages.fg.info` * `colors -> messages.bg.info` * `colors -> messages.border.info` * `fonts -> messages.error` * `fonts -> messages.warning` * `fonts -> messages.info` - The `qute:settings` page now also shows option descriptions. - `qute:version` and `qutebrowser --version` now show various important paths - `:spawn`/userscripts now show a nicer error when a script wasn't found - Various functionality now works when javascript is disabled with QtWebKit - Various commands/settings taking `left`/`right`/`previous` arguments now take `prev`/`next`/`last-used` to remove ambiguity. - The `ui -> user-stylesheet` setting now only takes filenames, not CSS snippets - `ui -> window-title-format` now has a new `{backend} ` replacement - `:hint` has a new `--add-history` argument to add the URL to the history for yank/spawn targets. - `:set` now cycles through values if more than one argument is given. - `:open` now opens `default-page` without an URL even without `-t`/`-b`/`-w` given. Deprecated ~~~~~~~~~~ - The `:paste` command got deprecated as `:open` with `{clipboard}` and `{primary}` can be used instead. - The `:paste-primary` command got deprecated as `:insert-text {primary}` can be used instead. - The `:prompt-yes` and `:prompt-no` commands got deprecated as `:prompt-accept yes` and `:prompt-accept no` can be used instead. Removed ~~~~~~~ - The `:yank-selected` command got merged into `:yank` as `:yank selection` and thus removed. - The `:completion-item-prev` and `:completion-item-next` commands got merged into a new `:completion-focus {prev,next}` command and thus removed. - The `ui -> hide-mouse-cursor` setting since it was completely broken and nobody seemed to care. - The `hints -> opacity` setting - see the "Changed" section for details. - The `completion -> auto-open` setting got merged into `completion -> show` and thus removed. - All `--qt-*` arguments got replaced by `--qt-arg` and `--qt-flag` and thus removed. - The `-c`/`--confdir`, `--datadir` and `--cachedir` arguments got removed, as `--basedir` should be sufficient. Fixed ~~~~~ - `:undo` now doesn't undo tabs "closed" by `:tab-detach` anymore. - Fixed an issue with hint chars not being cleared correctly when leaving hint mode. - `:tab-detach` now fails correctly when there's only one tab open. - Various small issues with the command completion - Fixed hang when using multiple spaces in a row with the URL completion - qutebrowser now still starts with an incorrectly configured `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`. - Fixed crash when a userscript writes invalid unicode data to the FIFO - Fixed crash when a included HTML was not found [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_Communication_Congress Have fun!
