Description Robert Muchacki (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-27 04:05:13 UTC
I'm not shure if this is a bug, but IMHO it is. After emerge nxclient, the application builds to /usr/NX instead of /usr. That causes it to partly not work (/usr/NX isn't in the $PATH).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge nxclient
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Successfuly builds to /usr/NX 

Expected Results:  
Should build to /usr

nxclient directory patch

The file should allow to fix the problem. It worked for me.

Hi,

NX expects everything to go under /usr/NX.  nxserver depends upon files installed by nxclient.  I've tested the ebuild, and /usr/NX/bin is definitely being added to the PATH for shell users.  If you are already logged in, you need to do 'source /etc/profile' to pick up any changes to the PATH.

Best regards,
Stu
