Bug#362515: xbase-clients: [xkbsel] looking for xkbcomp in wrong path

2006-04-27 Thread Steve Langasek
severity 362515 normal
thanks

Since x11-common has been fixed to provide /usr/X11R6/bin as a compatibility
symlink now to /usr/bin, this is no longer a release-critical issue in
xkbsel; in fact, leaving xkbsel as-is until the etch release is the better
option for forwards- and backwards-compatibility.

Cheers,

This is a bug in xkbsel rather than xbase-clients: the authoritative path
for X11 binaries is /usr/bin/X11, which is in the default path on Debian
systems, not /usr/X11R6/bin.

I've discussed with David Nusinow how to provide a compatibility symlink for
/usr/X11R6/bin, but xkbsel should still be updated to use the consistent
path -- or to use /usr/bin/xkbcomp and have a versioned dependency.
