Created attachment 307179 [details] patch for the xdm init script I propose to make three small changes to the xdm init script provided by xorg-server: 1) replace the EXE line in kdm|kde) EXE="$(which kdm)" with "EXE=/usr/bin/kdm", as it has been the default location for a long time. This would make the whole entry actually redundant by the catch-all at the end, but perhaps it is preferable to keep a separate entry for this, I don't know. 2) get rid of the following entry: kdm-*) EXE="/usr/kde/${MY_XDM#kdm-}/bin/kdm" PIDFILE=/var/run/kdm.pid Nothing in the tree should be installing in /usr/kde anymore as far as I am aware. 3) replace the "which" command by the shell built-in "command -v", the way it is used in the net.* scripts: *) # first find out if there is such executable EXE="$(which ${MY_XDM} 2>/dev/null)" --> EXE="$(command -v ${MY_XDM} 2>/dev/null)" The attached patch includes all this. I tested it and it works for me. Thanks for your attention.
Correct, it should've been removed with the kdeprefix removal. @x11: just add xdm.initd-8. :)
Fixed in the live ebuild -> next xorg-server bump will have this fix.
