WindowMaker includes a very (very) nice background setting programme, that works incredibly well with my desktop, as a backend to bsetbg. I have not managed to find any utilities simply for setting a background that work quite as well as wmsetbg, but was getting very bleak having the whole of windowmaker installed for no particular reason. This ebuild has not been tested on anything except a few friends' x86 machines. I have no way of testing it anywhere else, but I assume that it will work on other arch's, as the windowmaker ebuild says that windowmaker does! I have commented out the old KEYWORDS line, and added one that contains only ~x86 for safety's sake. Only downside is the need to download the whole WindowMaker tarball. Yay for broadband :) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 13402 [details] The ebuild to make this work
I'm afraid this won't be added. Installing a subset of the binaries that another ebuild installs is a little hacky. I'd prefer that people just install windowmaker and not use it. Unless they split wsetbg from the main distriubtion.
