## i3-gaps

This repository is a snapshot of [i3-gaps](https://github.com/Airblader/i3) `4.19.1` release with the following changes:

* Provide a unique Debian package identity (`i3-gaps-wm`) over the upstream project, [i3-wm](https://github.com/i3/i3).
* Breaking the Xsession files into a distinct package (`i3-gaps-session`), so that they can be selectively installed. Installing the package `i3-gaps` will install everything. Installing `i3-gaps-wm` will install the window manager but not the Xsession files.

Please see the [i3-gaps](https://github.com/Airblader/i3) and [i3-wm](https://github.com/i3/i3) projects for all other details.

#### How to Install

Builds of this package are available from the Regolith PPA for Ubuntu `Bionic`, `Focal`, and `Groovy`. Despite being hosted in the Regolith PPA, there is nothing specific or custom for Regolith and this build of i3-gaps can be considered "vanilla". To install into Ubuntu:

```bash
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:regolith-linux/unstable
$ sudo apt install i3-gaps
```

#### How to Build

To build this package locally, ensure that the Debian packaging tools and `gbp` are installed. Then invoke `gbp buildpackage` to generate Debian packages. Example:

```bash
$ git clone git@github.com:regolith-linux/i3-gaps.git && cd i3-gaps
$ gbp buildpackage --git-debian-branch=main
$ ls -haltr /tmp/debian-pkg-builds/
```

#### Known Issues

* Manpage generation is not working.
