Hello, To make Cinnamon work on Crux some core and opt packages schould have a little change. Glib will have to be 2.35 so a little update which can be without any problems. The next packages schould change rm /usr/local in /usr/local/share so that the gir package which will be in /usr/local/gir-1.0 is not deleted. - gdk-pixbuf - atk- gtk3- pango So my request is if these changes could committed so I can work on. Regards, Roelof
No, no and no
Odd versions of glib are "unstalbe" and will not be committed.
No crux package should EVER install anything in /usr/local. If you want these things changed you will have to maintain these ports yourself in your own repo.
Considering former posts on this ML, I >>!*guess*!<< OP meant not to delete /usr/share; using /usr/local/share wouldn't be his concern.
Correct , I only need usr/local/gir-1.0 otherwise I have to look if the files can be placed in another place. Without these gir-files it's impossible to make Cinnamon or another DE which uses gobject-introspection.
I get your point but this goes against packaging guidelines. Maintaining your own repo is the right way to do it.
