Re: [arch-general] LightDM GTK+ Greeter 2.0.0

2015-02-25 Thread Pablo Lezaeta Reyes
Hi all,

Version 2.0.0 of the LightDM GTK greeter was released about week ago.
This release drops GTK2 support.

That's ironic, Xfce recommend lightdm as DM for the gtk2 theme, and the
upcomimng xfce-gtk-engine 3.1 drop gtk3 support.

Therefore I propose to rename the current lightdm-gtk3-greeter into
lightdm-gtk-greeter and drop the legacy lightdm-gtk2-greeter to AUR.
looking oxygen keep the gtk3 in AUR gtk3 only themes tend to use gtk3 and
gtk2 only thend to use gtk or gtk2, I will preffer keep the 3 in the name.
I could keep lightdm-gtk2-greeter around for a while in [community] if
some people want me to (I'm thinking people using MATE for example,
but it's going towards GTK3 anyway), but keep in mind that you can use
LXDM instead if you really need a GTK2 display manager.
Or Xfce4 users, the upcoming xfce4 release is gtk2, and only after that the
migration to gtk3 will start.
so a gtk2-greeter will be apreciated until xfce drop gtk2, and dont forget
that LXDM is now presumably unmaintained or in low maintainance since they
migrate to QT

If there aren't any objections by the end of the week, I'll proceed with my
proposal.

Cheers,

 engine would be wasted effort.

No, they did not, that would be a feature for GTK+4. They just discourage people
from using it and they keep telling them to just use css. I suppose you meant
that gnome-themes-standard dropped the gtk+3 engine and you are right, simply
because Adwaita doesn't require it anymore.

From what I saw, it didn't drop it. It just disabled it by default, which
makes sense given that the desktop is GTK+2 only and they don't want to
unnecessary pull in the gtk+3 dep only for the engine.

Hello,

I have experienced the same issue on a Sony Vaio (VPCEJ-1M1E) which only
has an SD port. The SD cards are working flawlessly while micro SD cards
used with SD adapters aren't working at all. I have given the micro SD
card to a classmate, otherwise would've tried it again.

Yours truly,

3.1.0 taged http://git.xfce.org/xfce/gtk-xfce-engine/tree/NEWS

verbatim from the news: Gtk+-3 support has been stopped

I asume they keep it but they stop supporting so I think unles a patch
that fix all the themes emerge wldly, will be better drop xfce3-gtk-engine
or the entire xfce-gtk-engine, but that mostly prove that they not
support gtk3, drop gtk2-greeter will render without a wai to use a gtk2 only
environment since lxdm is mostly no-more-maintained and is better have a greeter
than a binary unsupported.

Also xfce4 recomend greybird as theme for xfce if someone need a gtk2-gtk3 theme

tldr; I will go for keep gtk2-greeter for  xfce4 user since lxdm is
semi-unmaintained and better a unmaintained theme that a
binary.
someone know if slim keep working with systemd, last time was buggy
or not start or not let thing start at all (like logind)
