Description Sander Vesik 2002-03-26 14:08:18 UTC 
The default location for teh background picture appears to be hardwired to
assume gnome2 is installed in /usr - results in no background picture by
default and is confusing
Comment 1 Luis Villa 2002-03-26 21:33:19 UTC 
This was fixed, wasn't it, lauris? Please close if so...
Comment 2 Lauris Kaplinski 2002-03-27 15:59:31 UTC 
Any idea how to fix that? The only solution I have in mind is to
turn wallpaper off by default - default image is specified
in schema file in libgnome module.

And no, I don't have an answer to the last question :)
Comment 4 Sander Vesik 2002-03-31 22:54:37 UTC 
errmmm - why not just point the location correctly at the $PREFIX
against which gnome is being built? It woould still be a bit broken
for relocatibility, but thats a whole different kettle of fish?
Comment 5 Jody Goldberg 2002-03-31 23:38:04 UTC 
The schema should be generated using intltool and a .schema.in file.
I can do this if there is consensus that this is the right way to go.
Although I still think that the background image should be stored in a more
central location.

Updating all cc bugs that have the GNOME2 keyword set to the GNOME2.0 milestone,
to help jrb triage/prioritize cc bugs. Filter on 'luis doing GNOME2 work' to
ignore this spam.
