MangoWC 0.17.5 Release Fixes Gaming and Multi-Monitor Regressions

Published by

MangoWC 0.17.5 has been released as a bug-fix update from maintainer DreamMaoMao, addressing two significant regressions from version 0.17.4. The fixes restore proper mouse behavior across multiple monitors during gaming and resolve an issue that prevented the compositor from exiting cleanly when run as a service. This release primarily serves as damage control for problems introduced in the previous version, rather than offering new features or enhancements. Users on Arch Linux can access the update through the AUR, and the software remains open source under GPL-3.0

MangoWC 0.17.5 has been released as a focused bug-fix release from maintainer DreamMaoMao rather than a feature update. It clears two regressions introduced by 0.17.4: abnormal game mouse behavior when the cursor crosses between monitors, and an inability to exit the compositor when run as a service. These fixes restore the multi-monitor gaming and service-based workflows that 0.17.4 had strengthened through rules like confine_pointer.
