https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1247747 --- Comment #13 from Adam Williamson <awilliam@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This stuff is pretty freaking ridiculous, btw. We have all these packages: fXX-backgrounds(-kde,-base,-mate,-xfce,-gnome) desktop-backgrounds(-gnome,-basic,-waves,-compat) fXX-kde-theme There's /usr/share/backgrounds. There's /usr/share/wallpapers, because of course we need two differently named directories to do the same damn thing. There's /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops , because of course we need *three* different directories to do the same damn thing. There's a file shipped in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties in desktop-backgrounds-basic, but there's also all the GNOME-specific subpackages and GNOME doesn't seem to require desktop-backgrounds-basic, so what the hell? GNOME pulls in the bits it needs via a dependency from gnome-desktop3 (but lists gnome-backgrounds directly in comps). KDE pulls in the bits it needs via a dependency from fXX-kde-theme. Xfce lists desktop-backgrounds-compat in its comps, then drops desktop-backgrounds-basic in its kickstart, but doesn't appear to include fXX-backgrounds-xfce in any way I can see (it's not in comps or in kickstarts and the only thing that requires it is fXX-backgrounds, and nothing requires that). Cinnamon lists f21-backgrounds-base in its comps group (yes, in F23), and also gnome-backgrounds, so I've no idea what the result of that is likely to be. cinnamon-desktop requires system-backgrounds-gnome, which is provided by desktop-backgrounds-gnome, so it will get that too. But not of course fXX-backgrounds-gnome. (Are you confused yet? I know I am.) MATE lists f22-backgrounds-base (again, yes, in F23) and mate-backgrounds in its comps. It also lists f22-backgrounds-mate, f21-backgrounds-extras-base, and f21-backgrounds-extras-mate in fedora-mate-packages.ks. mate-desktop doesn't have any backgrounds deps I can see, maybe some other MATE package does, I don't freaking know. Do we really need all this mess just to draw a picture on the desktop? In summary, I'm going drinking. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
