Re: [Nix-dev] Adding xfce4 panel plugins
[...] Then I tried to install this package with nix-env -i /nix/store/**gas9rjahhdxkksv7k3fbq4kwgp17xr** vf-xfce4-cpufreq-plugin-1.0.0 but when I try to add the plugin there is not cpufreq plugin in the list of xfce4 panel plugins. Starting xfce4-panel with debugging: $ xfce4-panel -q $ PANEL_DEBUG=1 xfce4-panel Then when I'm going to add a plugin shows: xfce4-panel(module-factory): reading /nix/store/8mik6lfry6sdjkvq25rqnbia00qjjx4p-xfce4-panel-4.8.6/share/xfce4/panel/plugins And ls -1 /nix/store/8mik6lfry6sdjkvq25rqnbia00qjjx4p-xfce4-panel-4.8.6/share/xfce4/panel/plugins actions.desktop applicationsmenu.desktop clock.desktop directorymenu.desktop launcher.desktop pager.desktop separator.desktop showdesktop.desktop systray.desktop tasklist.desktop windowmenu.desktop Which are the only plugins listed Cheers, -- Eduard Carreras i Nadal ecarre...@gmail.com ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev

Sometimes there are options, sometimes you have to patch it. Quicker way: Use a symlink: ln -s $out-of-xfce/panel /var/run/panel or the like Marc Weber ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev

Sometimes there are options, sometimes you have to patch it. Making a patch[1] to xfce4-panel works fine, but seems ugly... I don't know why $XDG_DATA_DIRS is empty. Can we do a wrapper in sh that export this variable and then run xfce4-panel? Maybe I'm saying a lot the nonsense...

That would be more general because it would allow users to have their own plugins in their home directories (so upstream might be willing to accept/implement something like this). Or maybe not, since Xfce apparently used to do this: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5455 -- Eelco Dolstra | LogicBlox, Inc. | http://nixos.org/~eelco/ ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
