Wayland-Protocols 1.5 Released With Tablet Support

Written by Michael Larabel in Wayland on 22 July 2016 at 08:49 AM EDT. 4 Comments

The latest release of the Wayland Protocols package is now available.

The main addition with Wayland-Protocols 1.5 is that it bundles an unstable version of the graphics tablet protocol, tablet-unstable-v2. Those wanting to learn about this tablet protocol can see this Git commit from two days ago that added the support.

The very short change-log of wayland-protocols 1.5 otherwise can be seen via this mailing list announcement by Jonas Ådahl.
