Hi. In [EMAIL PROTECTED], on Wed, 27 Dec 2000 12:27:43 +0100, on Re: X 4 and app-defaults, Bernd Eckenfels [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: what about localisation of app-default, I see XEarth ships with # ls /etc/X11/*/app-defaults/XEarth /etc/X11/ja_JP.eucJP/app-defaults/XEarth /etc/X11/ko_KR.eucKR/app-defaults/XEarth I would prefer /etc/X11/app-defaults/locale/Class as man is doing. Well, traditional X11 handling requires the location of XLIBDIR(/usr/X11R6/lib/X11 for potato)/locale/app-defaults/, so the new location /etc/X11/locale/app-defaults/ is just following that traditional way. And this behavior has already submitted as the patch by M. Ishikawa, and Branden kindly used it months ago. I can't get what is the merit of your proposal, but maybe this should be decided at the upstream level (i.e., xfree86 in this case, or TOG) I think.

Hi, Remco van de Meent wrote: Many packages compiled against X3 seem to include this directory in their package. Yes. They need to move their app-defaults files. What should I do? File bugs against packages that use /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults. Whee, (#bugs++)^2.. it seems that these 108 packages have such a directory: It seems like noone ever sent any bug rapport about this, right? I'm maintaining xfaces and was traking down some cryptic buggrepport resulted from this problem, and I would sure have been assisted by such an repport. Is anyone working on sending those repports? or shall I do it myslef? Thomas?
