Description Alan Horkan 2005-07-04 15:19:13 UTC
Version details: /garnome-2.11-20050630.2240

i think there might be an error in the install script for Clearlooks
I think it incorrectly assumes the location $GARNOME/share/themes/Clearlooks
will exist and I built Clearlooks before anything else so unusually it didn't exist

cp: cannot create directory `/tmp/garnome/share/themes/Clearlooks': No such file
or directory
make: *** [install-custom] Error 1

I checked and I'm not short of disk space (my usual problem)

bash-2.05b$ df -h /tmp/
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part9
                      4.0G  250M  3.5G   7% /tmp


I manually created the necessary folder and then it complained again about 
make: /tmp/garnome/bin/gconftool-2: Command not found
make: *** [post-install] Error 127


I realise this is a really weird situation and I am just about the only one who
would do things completely out of order like this but I thought you might want
to fix it or make it more robust for other reasons just in case.
Comment 1 Karsten Bräckelmann 2005-07-04 16:26:34 UTC
OK, the LIBDEPS are missing entirely. Seems we need at least desktop/metacity
and platform/GConf here.

Alan, can you confirm this fixes the issues? Just build
geektoys/clearlooks-metacity again from a clean GARNOME tree with this patch
applied. It will build pretty much, though...

Do we need anything else?

Patch follows.

Comment 3 Karsten Bräckelmann 2005-07-04 16:50:19 UTC
Should go in into 2.10.2 and any 2.11.x version.
Comment 4 Karsten Bräckelmann 2005-07-07 23:19:10 UTC
As geektoys/clearlooks-metacity is going to be moved to desktop/gnome-themes,
the 2 dependencies as in the patch need to be applied there.
Comment 5 Bob Kashani 2005-07-12 01:52:55 UTC
This has been fixed in garnome-2.10.2 and 2.11.x
