Having fought with this for KDE-4.4 for a while, I think that I finally have if figured out and applying it to GNOME packages solved my GTK app issues as well.
I have posted a tutorial for KDE-4.4: http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Tutorials/D-Bus/Configuration which is also applicable (KDE-4.4 instructions too) to GNOME, especially if installed in: /opt/gnome Specifically, the configuration in: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/gnome/GConf.html is not sufficient. I would also suggest that it be moved to: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/gnome/pre-install-config.html There are 4 directories: /etc/gnome/2.28.2/dbus-1/session.d /etc/gnome/2.28.2/dbus-1/system.d /opt/gnome/share/dbus-1/services /opt/gnome/share/dbus-1/system-services that D-Bus needs to find to work correctly -- although I note that the first one is currently empty on my system, it is a drop in directory and it must be correctly configured. These have a direct correspondence to the KDE-4.4 directories in the tutorial. Then there is the question of the: /opt/gnome/share/share/polkit-1/actions directory. On KDE-4.4 this could only be addressed by installing the contents in: /usr/share/share/polkit-1/actions and KDE packages have a build option to do this. I have not looked into that for GNOME yet. -- James Tyrer Linux (mostly) From Scratch -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
