== Description ==

xorg-server 1.12.4 is a maintenance release of the X.org X server.  There
are only a handful of changes in this dot release, and with the pending
release of 1.13 next month, it's likely that this may be the final scheduled
release from the 1.12 branch; we will likely put out additional releases
from this branch, but they will no longer follow the standard 6-week
development cycle.

This version is identical to the previous release candidate except for
version numbers.
