Sawfish for Debian (Gnome version)
2
----------------------------------
4
The sawfish-gnome package includes sawfishl.el, written by Dave Pearson
5
<davep@davep.org>, which is normally distributed from his web site
6
http://www.acemake.com/hagbard/.
8
To install Gnome menu with popup-root-menu put these lines in your
11
(require 'sawfish.wm.gnome.menus)
12
(setq apps-menu gnome-menus)
14
---------------------------------------------------------------------
16
For each upstream release you need to restart Sawfish with :
18
sawfish-client -f restart
20
Because Sawfish load his lisp code on demand, each new version doesn't work
21
with previous lisp code (ie: popup menu doesn't work).
23
I'll close all bugs report related to this feature.
25
Also if you have this error:
28
error--> (file-error "No such file or directory" "gui/gtk")
30
This is because you have mixed up Ximian packages and Debian packages.
31
You need to replace all Ximian packages related to sawfish by the Debian
32
packages (rep, rep-gtk, rep-gtk-gnome, librep9).
34
Why this doesn't work ?
36
Because Ximian doesn't follow the Debian policy (Chapter 12.1) :
38
If a program needs to specify an _architecture specification string_
39
in some place, the following format should be used:
43
where <arch>' is one of the following: i386, alpha, arm, m68k,
44
powerpc, sparc and <os>' is one of: linux, gnu. Use of _gnu_ in this
45
string is reserved for the GNU/Hurd operating system.
47
I'll close all bugs report related to this feature too.
