Description leon j. breedt 2003-05-06 21:25:52 UTC
the redhat-artwork package (0.65) puts its XFree 4.3 cursor themes in
/usr/share/icons/Bluecurve and /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve-inverse. these
directories need to be linked into /usr/share/cursors/xfree so that user
configuration files can specify "Inherits=bluecurve".

example links:

( ljb@noa ) $ ls -l bluecurve*                         /usr/share/cursors/xfree
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           21 May  4 23:38 bluecurve ->
../../icons/Bluecurve/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           29 May  4 23:39 bluecurve-inverse ->
../../icons/Bluecurve-inverse/

although this only modifies some of the cursors used, maybe a later version of
redhat-artwork will substitute all the cursors in most of the apps.

this is actually fixed in 0.73, which i guess should move to stable now ..

someone beat me to bumping it to stable. this issue is pretty much closed then
