The proposal to merge lp:~geoubuntu/ubuntu/trusty/tvtime/1265576+1265577 into lp:ubuntu/tvtime has been updated.

Description changed to:

1. Link to libsupc++ instead of bringing in libstdc++ just because tomsocomp is written in C++. It does not use STL so it needs not the whole standard library.

2. Add support to the _NET_WM_PID atom which is needed by many windows managers to correctly associate a SDL window to its process and to related .desktop file and icon for the given host.

   EWMH (Extended Window Manager Hints) is a set of conventions (basically extending the original ICCCM, or Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual) on how to make X clients play along nicely especially assisting the window manager (which is just another X client) do its job.

   What this particular protocol (_NET_WM_PID) does, is add a property to the client's window containing the process id of the client's process. The rationale is that if the window manager detects that a particular client does not respond, it can use the pid to kill it.

  Tested with: xprop _NET_WM_PID

3. Fix another memory leaks discovered by the cppcheck tool

4. Renamed debian/patches/tvtime-1.0.2-icon.patch to tvtime-1.0.2-wmicon.patch for clarity.
