KDE kdm problem with packaged version (make release issue?)
For a long time I have noticed that when I build kdm from the kdebase port, it works. But if I used packages off either the CDs or ftp sites, it doesn't work. Specifically if I do a 'strings' on the binary and grep for /, some of the paths I see have XBINDIR rather than explicit references to /usr/X11R6/bin. I am not enough a ports guru to grok what is to be done, but before the freeze maybe someone could look into it? Another suggestion is that two patches to the xdm config files be made at the time that kdebase is installed -- One needs to add a call to kdmdesktop to Xsetup_0, and one needs to add kde) exec /usr/local/bin/startkde ;; right above the failsafe case in Xsession. If the port doesn't make these two patches itself at install time, it might at least _suggest_ them to the user, IMHO.
