I read all of the opinions in the long thread.
But I saw little respect or weight given to Debian's
very reason for existence.  ALL the justifications for
won't fix are not Debian-ian.

Thank you, this is useful, perhaps better than the other already mentioned 
options. And I note in passing that I do not find any documentation concerning 
okularrc, not even a man page.

This entire discussion is rather old, going way back, and I am surprised by 
okular for re-inventing a problem.

Bug#585097: kde-standard: change update-notifier-kde from depends to recommends

2010-06-09 Thread Alan BRASLAU
Package: kde-standard
Version: 5:62
Severity: normal


kde-standard recommends freespacenotifier and network-manager-kde.
update-notifier-kde should also have the status of recommends, not depends.
Indeed, these are all quite *invasive* background daemons that should not
be imposed on kde-standard users. The current situation forced me
to uninstall the kde-standard meta-package and to manually select
many of its components.

Note that these daemons may break other standard Debian system functionality
(network-manager breaks standard wpa-suppleant usage, update-notifier breaks
other packages making use of motd, for example).

Also, but this is a matter of (good) taste, such daemons smell of
Microsoft Windows practices, not standard unix-like administration.
Let users choose this if they wish, perhaps through another metapackage.

Thank you.

Alan

Bug#563271: kdm crashes at first login b/c of consolekit(?)

2010-01-04 Thread Alan BRASLAU
I confirm this bug both on amd64 and i686.
It is not related to the particular session
as choosing twm, for example, rather then KDE
yields the same result.

Same error messages as reported by arne anka
(in /var/log/daemon.log)

Bug#492317: #492317 in Lenny ?

 The bug report is not crystal clear for me thereabout.

Unfortunately for the bug report,
I am using KDE 4.1.4 (experimental)
although the original report did concern kdm/KDE3.
I now avoid using the reboot grub feature
(as I almost never reboot into another OS).

  Further investigation shows that the error systematically occurs after

  powering-down the system before trying to reboot. Thus, kdm (version
  4:4.0.98-1) must be corrupting the grub configuration somehow.

 I wasn't aware of this feature.  What is kdm exactly doing?

  I am filing a kdm bug report upstream. Should the present grub bug report
  be closed?

 I can't tell if this is GRUB's fault or not without an accurate description
 of what kdm is doing.

I'm not sure what kdm is doing, as I have not taken a look at the source code.
However, I see the following in /var/log/kdm.log

GNU GRUB  version 0.97  (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)

   [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported.   For
 the   first   word,  TAB  lists  possible  command
 completions.  Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
 completions of a device/filename. ]
grub savedefault --default=5 --once
grub

so I see that kdm seems to run grub, and not edit menu.lst or some other hack.

 Let's reassign this bug; later it can be moved back to GRUB if necessary.

The grub and kdm maintainers are much more competent than I. However, I can 
investigate more if no-one else is aware of the problem or cannot reproduce. 
It's a bit time-consuming, so for the moment I am simply avoiding using this 
feature - I'll stick to rebooting into linux :)

Bug#491086: kdebase-workspace-data depends on oxygencursors, should only suggest

2008-07-16 Thread Alan Braslau
Package: kdebase-workspace-data
Version: 4:4.0.98-1
Severity: normal


kdebase-workspace-data depends on oxygencursors,
however, this should only be suggested, not required.

Whereas, of course, one is not obligated to use any
cursor theme under KDE (the X default can be chosen
via systemsettings), it should be possible to install
kde4 without being forced to install any x-cursor-theme.

Seems to work fine after
dpkg --force-depends --purge remove oxygencursors
(however apt is now quite unhappy!)

Alan

P.S. Thanks to the debian-kde team for bringing us kde4.1!

This bug seemed to have been fixed about one year ago,

Also, now some messages indeed present on the server do not appear in the
