Public bug reported: /etc/xdg/midori/config contains:
[settings] homepage=file:///usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html which naturally isn't present in derivatives, and so in for example Kubuntu (and presumably any derivative distribution that doesn't unclude the ubuntu-artwork package) you get an ugly "Error opening file: No such file or directory" as your default homepage. Looking at the dependencies, merely making ubuntu-artwork a dependency of midori wouldn't be good, since it pulls in a bunch of cruft that folks running other desktops wouldn't need namely a bevy of GTK theme packages). But looking upstream, Debian defaults to homepage=file:///usr/share/doc/midori/faq.html which is in fact installed by the midori package in the Ubuntu repos, and so seems like an entirely reasonable, DE-agnostic choice. ** Affects: midori (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314301 Title: /etc/xdg/midori/config sets homepage=file:///usr/share/ubuntu- artwork/home/index.html which isn't present in derivatives To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/midori/+bug/1314301/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
