Oops... I forgive other: what about Windows and Mac users? Is there something similar? 2012/5/3 Guilhem Bonnefille guilhem.bonnefi...@gmail.com: Hi, I already have a patch that add the following beahviour to viking: - loop over a given list of directory to look for the differents extension files (maps.xml, external_tools.xml, goto_tools.xml). - if $VIKING_CONFIG_PATH is set, it is parsed instead of a built-in list For the moment, I do not load maps*.xml files (next patch?). Now, it is time for fixing the patch: - which directories to definitively look for? - what exact data should we put in the soonly deployed maps.xml, external_tools.xml, goto_tools.xml? - where to deploy these files? For the directories to look for, I think $(pkgdatadir) as provided by autoconf/automake is the good one. Can someone confirm this option? For /etc related I will use @sysconfigdir@. For the data, I plan to ship all example given (we already have an example file) + all maps declared in wiki. Good idea? Too many data? And finally, at the install stage, I plan to deploy these data in @pkgdatadir@. I imagine it is the better for packagers. Note that this is the directory used by other Gtk application to ship their .ui files. Please, feel free to comment these choice.

Hi, I already have a patch that add the following beahviour to viking: - loop over a given list of directory to look for the differents extension files (maps.xml, external_tools.xml, goto_tools.xml). - if $VIKING_CONFIG_PATH is set, it is parsed instead of a built-in list For the moment, I do not load maps*.xml files (next patch?). Again I would advocate trying to use appropriate $XDG_* env vars instead of using a newly made up one Now, it is time for fixing the patch: - which directories to definitively look for? - what exact data should we put in the soonly deployed maps.xml, external_tools.xml, goto_tools.xml? - where to deploy these files? For the directories to look for, I think $(pkgdatadir) as provided by autoconf/automake is the good one. Can someone confirm this option? For /etc related I will use @sysconfigdir@. For the data, I plan to ship all example given (we already have an example file) + all maps declared in wiki. Good idea? Too many data? I can't decide either way. And finally, at the install stage, I plan to deploy these data in @pkgdatadir@. I imagine it is the better for packagers.

For the directories to look for, I think $(pkgdatadir) as provided by autoconf/automake is the good one. Can someone confirm this option? for files provided by viking tarball, only For /etc related I will use @sysconfigdir@. for machine-wide viking config, sounds good. This should default to /etc/viking somehow (or $prefix/etc/viking), rather than bare etc, if there is more than 'viking.conf' (which there is, it seems). I suggest ~/.viking/etc for per-user config files parallel to the above. pgp9Tfautnp4b.pgp Description: PGP signature -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
