To avoid conflict - desktop-file-install should be used specifying the vendor. For example - in Fedora Extras we use --vendor=fedora which results in the desktop files having a prefix of fedora- If desktop files conflict between two vendors, it is imho a packaging bug by one (or both) vendors. Using desktop-file-install also ensures that desktop file isn't completely broken. > * $XDG_DATA_DIRS doesn't include /usr/local/share That imho is a bug > * $BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH doesn't include /usr/local/lib/bonobo/servers I can't speak to that. > * $KDEDIRS doesn't include /usr/local I can't speak to that. > * $PKG_CONFIG_PATH doesn't include /usr/lib/pkgconfig I assume you mean /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig It probably should be up to the script of a devel package to add that if it needs that but it isn't set already. You could install a script in /etc/profile.d/ if the PKG_CONFIG path doesn't include the path to your pkgconfig files. > * DBUS configuration file does not <includedir> /usr/local/etc/dbus-1/system.d I can't speak to that. > * fontconfig doesn't have a <dir> element for /usr/local/share/fonts That I consider to be a bug, since the file where it is set has a big warning about not editing it. But perhaps there is a way to add to the searched patch via /etc/fonts/local.conf or in new fontconfig, /etc/fonts/conf.d ? <offtopic> Speaking of not editing that file, it also includes the fake italic and fake bold instructions, which I think in the fontconfig 2.4 branch should be files in /etc/fonts/conf.d/ so they can be disabled w/o editing the "do not edit" config file </offtopic> > * Actually I'm not even sure regular $PATH includes /usr/local/bin, but > maybe that was some other distro ... /usr/local/bin is in my path - if a distro does not include it, it is imho a bug. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
