Bug#605353: Bug#605111: gnome-session does not allow to use gnome splash screen but package gnome-splashscreen-manager does
Hi! * Mohammed Adnène Trojette adn+...@diwi.org [101205 01:35]: To be honest, I can't tell because I haven't used it myself for a while and I won't have a Debian box available before February :-( gnome-art used to be a very appreciated package. I think popcon illustrates it correctly. So if there is no real technical problem with gnome-art, I'd rather have it remain in Debian for now. I just played a bit with gnome-art. And why I can see some use cases, I actually fear that it won't be much use, it's quite slow (even on quite modern hardware!)... acutally it's so slow, that I thought it crashed, while throwing quite a lot of different error/warning messages to the console. Sorry, but I'm going to remove the package for now, but feel free to re-upload it to experimental until it's better working again.

I have added a Conflicts instead. The obsolete package needs to be removed from unstable. gnome-splashscreen-manager is a binary package build from source package gnome-art, which also builds the binary package gnome-art. Oh indeed, I didn’t notice. Would you like to get the source package and all binaries removed, or is this bug about removing the gnome-splashscreen-manager binary package? I don’t know whether the gnome-art package still works. I doubt of its usefulness now the control center accepts new themes through drag’n’drop, but the maintainer should confirm whether or not it should stay.

Of course, as I am a bit busy right now, people doing the work have the final word on this matter.

clone 605111 -1 tag 605111 pending retitle -1 RM: gnome-splashscreen-manager -- RoQA; obsolete, useless reassign -1 ftp.debian.org thanks Le samedi 27 novembre 2010 à 15:21 +0100, Roland Baudin a écrit : It seems that the gnome splash screen feature was removed in Debian Squeeze, but the package gnome-splashscreen-manager still exists in the distribution and thus has no effect. It is very confusing. I suggest enabling again splash screen (but not enabled by default if you want) in gnome-session, thus users could still use gnome-splashscreen-manager to get their gnome splash screen.
