Latest ISO (2011-09) missing obconf (OpenBoxConfigerator).
« on: September 27, 2011, 05:43:49 AM »
Hi.

I wanted to hack some desktop themes on an install of the latest release of pclinuxos-lxde-2011.09.iso. So I went to play in the lxde config tool. The "Configure Openbox" button doesn't do anything. A bit of digging around reveals that the program associated with this feature is /usr/bin/obconf. And is missing!  :o

Looking in Synaptic, it was not installed by default. Installed it and all is fine.

Is this program left off the .iso for any reason?

I saw this thread: (broken package)
http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php/topic,95925.0.html

Wondered if it's related or even if anyone knows or cares...

Thanks Neal, Tex and co. for the new release(s) btw. Other than this quip, seems to totally rock!  :)

 ??? ??? ??? OBConf was installed when I started out. I started with 2011.06 and updated. I did not see obconf being removed. :o :o

It might have trotted off to get some bacon. It'll be back...when it gets hungry.
