Hello again,
as you can see in the topic I'm following "The Hint"... and can't cope
with installing gnome-panel anymore. Could someone please post how they
did this? My install continues to fail badly. I'm quite sure I'm near
the end, but I'm beginning to think it's just not the right way. What I
do is I simply either make o+w or chown root:install XYZ + permissions
everything that it (the install) wants to write to. But at the moment
I'm sort of 'loosing it' - can't tell which dirs were made root:install
and which do not need to be... Or whether there's a way to update
scrollkeeper as root and stop gnome-panel from doing it by itself.
I do have "GCONF_DISABLE_MAKEFILE_SCHEMA_INSTALL=true make install" -
but even then some components are desperate to install schemas (*very*
annoying).
So what's wrong? I have loads of "I/O error : Permission denied" in
install.log, in reply to the command "scrollkeeper-update -p
/var/lib/scrollkeeper -o /usr/share/omf/gnome-panel". I made:
/var/log/scrollkeeper.log o+w (gave errors too)
/var/lib/scrollkeeper root:install
/var/lib/scrollkeeper/scrollkeeper_docs o+w
/var/lib/scrollkeeper/index root:install
/var/lib/scrollkeeper/TOC root:install
The final error that breaks the install is at the moment "/bin/chmod:
cannot access `/usr/share/gnome/help/fish-applet-2/C/*.xml': No such
file or directory". And I'm too frustrated to look into it :-(
Any helpful ideas? Thanks in advance and sorry for 'flooding' the list
with help requests all the time recently...
Kind regards,
David Ciecierski
