hi Niki, my slack-wallpapers.SlackBuild script places the images in /usr/share/wallpapers and then creates symlinks to /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce. I chose /usr/share/wallpapers, because both Xscreensaver and KDE find the pictures there by default. Later I realised it would be nice for XFCE users to have them displayed in the Desktop Settings previw window. So, the images are symlinked there.
I was thinking to add an option to the script to create symlinks that can work similarly for MATE. bye Petar ________________________________________ From: SlackBuilds-users [slackbuilds-users-boun...@slackbuilds.org] on behalf of Niki Kovacs [i...@microlinux.fr] Sent: 05 February 2015 10:57 To: slackbuilds-users@slackbuilds.org Subject: [Slackbuilds-users] Wallpaper directories Hi, Now that my MLED desktop is running nicely, I've decided to share some of my original SlackBuild scripts with SlackBuilds.org. I have a few questions on packaging details. First things first. The Elementary OS distribution has a very nice set of wallpapers. I've packaged these specifically for my Xfce-based desktop (http://www.microlinux.fr/slackware/desktop-14.1-source/xfce/luna-wallpapers/). But I guess folks who build the package from an SBo package will be running all kinds of different desktop environments. Here's the various wallpaper locations I've identified so far: * /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops * /usr/share/backgrounds * /usr/share/wallpapers Each desktop environment (Xfce, KDE, MATE, ...) has his own "default" wallpaper place, meaning the collection of wallpapers display nicely in a preview window when installed there. I think (correct me if I'm wrong) that the best solution would be to 1. Install all wallpapers to, say, /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops. 2. Create symlinks to /usr/share/backgrounds and /usr/share/wallpapers. Any suggestions?
