Hi there.
awesome-client is now linked against the whole hog of x-related libs
that awesome depends on. These get pulled in by awesome-client using the
same LDFLAGS as awesome. Removing x-related libs from the LDFLAGS for
awesome-client is only half of the story, as it also depends on util.c
which now has a couple of x-related functions. The attached patch also
splits these functions into a separate xutil.{c,h} file pair and teaches
the rest of the files to use them. Apart from the small difference in
file size (I see a 3-3.5% decrease in file size, both for a stripped and
a non-stripped awesome-client binary), this should also somewhat reduce
the startup time (since awesome-client won't have to map all of these
libraries).
Cheers...
