lxdm -- The LXDE Login Manager

[Joble]

Did you ever get past this Neal?  

I am setting up a build environment on my latest Xfce iso and would love to test it out.

This error has been a problem for me but redoing the patch has always gotten me past it, so far.  You want me to see what I can do with it?

Edit: ---------------

Arhg!  The context menus don't appear to work with the latest Xfce/Thunar!

[Joble]

OK, so I've got the latest Xfce and Thunar from Testing and it looks like pkgutils-thunar does not work with it.  Looks like I got a project of my own.  Will look into it.

[Neal ManBear]

No luck with it yet.
I'm gonna hold off on upgrading thunar till that's fixed. I can use konqueror, I know, but thunar is easier to set up on an LXDE install.

[Joble]

Try putting -p1 instead of -p0 in your spec file.

%patch0 -p1 -b -z  (do you know how desperate I must have been to even try that?  I found it in the How-To.)

There appears to be a problem in the %files section too.

Processing files: lxdm-0.2.0-1pclos2010
error: File not found by glob: /home/joe/src/tmp/lxdm-0.2.0-1pclos2010-buildroot/usr/bin/*


Still looking at it.

Still haven't found out the deal with Thunar context menus.  Getting familiar with the command line again.  

[Neal ManBear]

Thanks, Joble. I think the %files problem is with %{_datadir}/mdk/%{SOURCE3} which probably should be %{_datadir}/mdk/backgrounds/%{SOURCE3}.

Okay. After making those changes, I get

Patch #0 (lxdm-0.2.0-pclos-customization.patch):
+ patch -p1 -b --suffix -z -s
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file lxdm.conf.pclos.rej

That patch and spec file worked for me Neal, up until the file problem. Will keep looking at it.  Was my name in the changelog?  Maybe that was the problem.  ROFL!

Built!  But not tested.

Sent it to my ftp directory Neal.  Check it out.

[Neal ManBear]

Yea. I'm sure the problem is something I've done.

Wrote new %files:

%files -f %{name}.lang
%defattr(-, root, root)
%dir %{_sysconfdir}/lxdm
%{_sysconfdir}/lxdm/Xsession
%config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/lxdm/lxdm.conf
%config(noreplace) %{_datadir}/X11/dm.d/%{name}.conf
%{_sysconfdir}/pam.d/*
%{_bindir}/*
%{_datadir}/%{name}
%{_datadir}/mdk/backgrounds/%{SOURCE2}
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/LoginReady
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/PostLogin
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/PostLogout
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/PreLogin
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/PreReboot
%{_sysconfdir}/%{name}/PreShutdown
%{_sbindir}/%{name}
%{_sbindir}/%{name}-binary
%{_libdir}/%{name}-greeter-gtk

See anything I missed or got wrong?

[Joble]

%{_bindir}/*  That's not going to work, there's nothing to go into /bin

Other than that it looks good to me.  I attached the one that worked for me in my last post.

LOL I was just going to remove that. Hadn't meant to post it. Just forgot to remove the line before clicking "send." Took a bit before my mind registered what I'd done.

I've just built the RPM again. Something still not right, though.

[Neal ManBear]

The RPM was built. I installed it. I opened PCC to switch to it, and it wasn't listed.

[Joble]

Weird.  Was the old one still listed?

[Neal ManBear]

Weird.  Was the old one still listed?

No, this was on a new, fully updated install.

[Joble]

Is there something you need to do for PCC to tell it where to find it?  Never messed with that before.  Maybe Tex or kjpetrie would know.
