I don't believe this is the correct way couse it force user to install a large part of metacity while most probably already another, newer WM is installed (like mutter). GDM cannot start because gnome-session cannot find a "usual theme" from /usr/share/themes: Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Adwaita": Failed to find a valid file for theme Adwaita Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Simple": Failed to find a valid file for theme Simple Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Default": Failed to find a valid file for theme Default Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "HighContrast": Failed to find a valid file for theme HighContrast Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Raleigh": Failed to find a valid file for theme Raleigh Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Adwaita": Failed to find a valid file for theme Adwaita Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager warning: Failed to load theme "Emacs": Failed to find a valid file for theme Emacs Oct 24 22:58:38 cassie gnome-session[4799]: Window manager error: Could not find a theme! Be sure /usr/share/themes exists and contains the usual themes. Both Adwaita and HighContrast theme is provided by gnome-themes-standard package. However Simple is a metacity theme. As we require for GDM a virtual gdm-wm (at the moment only gnome-shell and metacity) and metacity already requires metacity-theme-base (Simple theme) in my opinion there should be requirement of gnome-themes-standard in gnome-shell (or maybe os some lover level like gnome-desktop?). Any opinions? -- Regards, Lukasz _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
