GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 593186
arch-independent files installed in $plugindir
Last modified: 2011-04-24 03:36:03 UTC
Hi, Many plugins currently install their gtkbuilder files, and images, into $plugindir. Since they are not architecture dependent files, they should go to somewhere in $datadir. E.g. /usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/jamendo/jamendo_logo.png should be in /usr/share/rhythmbox/plugins/jamendo/jamendo_logo.png (or something like that).
It would be nice to do this properly, but it'd require some slightly awkward hacks in the plugin management code. If there aren't any concrete benefits from doing this, I think it's probably not worth the effort.
