Bug 118748 – rss-glx-0.8.0-r2 installs kde .desktop files when USE=-kde

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Peter Hyman 2006-01-12 02:12:02 UTC]

all files in
/usr/share/applnk/System/Screensavers

placed by rss-glx are for KDE. They should not be installed if -kde is in use. Provided .desktop files are set for KDE. There is no configure option to NOT install them.

These files *.desktop should be removed prior to merging into the filesystem.

Example: biof.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Exec=biof
Icon=kscreensaver
Type=Application
Actions=InWindow;Root
Name=Biof (GL)

[Desktop Action Setup]
Exec=kxsconfig biof
Name=Setup...

[Desktop Action InWindow]
Exec=kxsrun biof -- -window-id %w
Name=Display in specified window
NoDisplay=true
 
[Desktop Action Root]
Exec=kxsrun biof -- --root
Name=Display in root window
NoDisplay=true

I may have been incorrect. Perhaps a local conf variable should be set if -kde is used.

if ! use kde
local myconf="--without-kdessconfigdir"
fi

something like that. Or, just blow out the desktop files.

from configure...

Optional Packages:
  --with-PACKAGE[=ARG]    use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
  --without-PACKAGE       do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
  --with-gnu-ld           assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no]
  --with-pic              try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects [default=use
                          both]
  --with-tags[=TAGS]
                          include additional configurations [automatic]
  --with-x                use the X Window System
  --with-configdir        Where is xscreensaver stashing its screensaver configs?
  --with-kdessconfigdir   Where is KDE stashing its screensaver configs?

that myconf change does NOT stop the .desktop files from being installed. They need to be removed

find ... -name '*desktop' |xargs rm -f

or just remove ${D}/usr/share/applnk/ and below since it's not needed.

something like that.

from the install routine... even with --without-kdessconfig
mkdir -p -- /mnt/src/var/tmp/portage/rss-glx-0.8.0-r2/image//usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers
/bin/install -c -m 644 hufo_smoke.desktop

0.8.0-r3 doesn't install them for me.
