Hi,
first of all I'm not sure if this is the right mailing-list to post my
question. Please point me to the right one if it isn't.
I've stumbled upon a problem building an recipe for custom software that
depends on totem-pl-parser which itself depends on hicolor-icon-theme
(which seems to be introduced by the gnome bbclass the totem-pl-parser
recipe inherits from).
The installation of the hicolor-icon-theme fails at the postinstallation
step because the directory /etc/gtk-2.0 and the binaries
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders & gtk-update-icon-cache don't exist.
The postinst script of hicolor-icon-them is as follows:
#!/bin/sh
if [ "x$D" != "x" ]; then
exit 1
fi
# Update the pixbuf loaders in case they haven't been registered yet
gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders > /etc/gtk-2.0/gdk-pixbuf.loaders
for icondir in /usr/share/icons/* ; do
if [ -d $icondir ] ; then
gtk-update-icon-cache -qt $icondir
fi
done
I believe this postinstallation step is added by the gtk-icon-cache
class the hicolor-icon-theme recipe inherits from.
I don't know which package provides this binaries/directory but as the
package hicolor-icon-theme explicitly has no RDEPENDS set this seems
wrong somehow.
Installing hicolor-icon-theme via opkg from a standard console-image
installation leaves the package manager in an inconsistent state with a
half installed hicolor-icon-theme package which additionally can't be
removed anymore because the postrm step also expects
gtk-update-icon-cache to be available.
Any suggestions how to fix this or how this was intended to work?
I want to use totem-pl-parser with the least possible additional
software and hope this is possible without unfolding a complete
gnome/gtk universe in my installation.
Cheers,
Fabian
