Bug 307605 – Wrong path in splash-themes-gentoo configuration files

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Doron Fediuck 2010-03-03 11:59:30 UTC]

Hi, I recently emerged splash-themes-gentoo,
and found that the images location in the cfg files are wrong.
For example:
pic=/etc/splash/natural-gentoo/images/verbose-1920x1200.jpg
silentpic=/etc/splash/natural-gentoo/images/silent-1920x1200.jpg

This is wrong, since the files are located in natural_gentoo directory,
and this will cause some scripts to fail.

Created attachment 221923 [details]
patch for 1920x1200.cfg

Adding a sample patch which works for me.

Sorry, after reviewing I noticed it's not clear enough;

media-gfx/splash-themes-gentoo-20100302 was built with the following:
USE="(multilib)"

2. When emerged, ehe files are installed under:
/etc/splash/natural_gentoo/
So you may fix it to "natural-gentoo" and then you won't need my patch.

Yeah, but this way I will need to edit my grub.conf file — No, thanks.

This still produce error/warning during initramfs generation:

*** Bug 307661 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

[Comment 6 Billy DeVincentis 2010-03-14 05:47:18 UTC]

Same problem here with 1024x768 config file. I wouldn't run any patches on this. Just correct the image paths. This is a typo.

[Comment 7 Nikolaj Šujskij 2010-03-18 14:10:00 UTC]

I agree, there's absolutely no need in changing paths or GRUB configs manually for no good reason. That is messy and has no purpose. That is job for upstream and maybe a little patch in the meanwhile.

[Comment 8 Michal Januszewski (RETIRED) 2010-03-21 08:43:31 UTC]

This should now be fixed in CVS.  Thanks for reporting the problem.
