The Testing Area :: gtk+-2.12.9.uci



Hi again Jason!

The extension works very well with DSL-4.4.2 (embedded). I'm using it with the new Firefox-3.0 (I made a shortcut extension of the new firefox as soon as it was released maybe I'll make an extension "by the book" of it later when I get more time) and everything seems OK The setup looks even better than before. Thanks!

Have fun out there all DSL users,

The info file for juanito's gimp-2.4.uci states that cairo-1.2.uci and gtk+-2.10.uci are required.
Thought I'd mention that gimp-2.4.uci can aternatively be used with this more recent version of gtk, just in case it's useful info.

On the subject of gtk+-2.12.9.uci itself , I'm interested in automating the process of setting this up from bootlocal. I'd like to make sure I'm not omitting something before next reboot (just in case).
It looks like all I need to do to avoid having to run the dialog script is to replace /etc/ld.so.conf (from a backup, for example) and run ldconfig?

mikshaw,
Yes, a backup of /etc/ld.so.conf and running ldconfig after reboot would do just fine.  There is also a non-interactive boot script in /opt/bin that could be used that would accomplish the same thing also.

k, thanks very much.

I don't really use backup/restore...it was just mentioned as a familiar example.  I actually already have a couple of other /etc files being replaced using bootlocal, so I just added ld.so.conf to that:
Code Sample
cp -fp ${BOOTFILES}/{inittab,shadow,ld.so.conf} /etc/
telinit q
ldconfig


This is the first time I've ever used gtk2 in DSL, to be honest.  Primarily it's just to have access to the newer features of Gimp 2.4, but I'll probably start exploring other apps now.  Thanks again.
