Package: splashy
Version: 0.3.10-2
Severity: normal
Hi,
file-rc is a package that provides a sysv-rc interface and replaces
the runlevel startup links with a single configuration file
/etc/runlevel.conf.
Unfortunately, file-rc does raise some issues with splashy or
vice-versa: When file-rc is installed, splashy's progress bar stays at
zero, and the text box that can be invoked with F2 stays empty. The
system boots fine though.
In a test VM that I installed to investigate this, splashy also
doesn't terminate nicely when file-rc is installed, and the kdm screen
never comes up. After removing file-rc, things were fine again.
I do not know whether file-rc needs modifications to interface better
with splashy, or whether splashy interprets hints from file-rc in the
wrong way. So please feel free to (clone and) reassign to file-rc, and
- if necessary - give directions to the file-rc maintainer which hints
it needs to give to splashy to properly work.
Greetings
Marc
