myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: MyDsl install in multiuser setup
Hi,
I would like that all the users of my dsl box benefit from the myDSL packages I install. Is this possible ?
thanks

Most myDSL apps are installed systemwide. In most cases the only things missing for other users are the menu item, desktop icon, and personal configs if they exist. Adding these things to a multiuser system would be nearly impossible, since there is no way for the installer to assume what users have been added.
The only thing I can think of is doing a check during the installation, something like this maybe:
for dir in /home/* ; do
if [ -d "$dir/.xtdesktop" ]; then
put icons in $dir/.xtdesktop
fi
done
I'm sure there are a few packages that may require a little tweaking to get them running for another user, but mainly they're ready to use.
