Agreed. Aparently I don't know why /opt/trinity/bin/r14-xdg-update is not run by the postinstall-script. But then I have to admit I don't know this cute little program is doing at all :) @docs: I like the way FreeBSD handles these things. Linux is still nice, but there is a new generation of programmers that prefer youtube videos to written documentation. Maybe I'm too old for this, but the last days I was faced with the problem of picking a person for a project that's not afraid of the console - didn't know that reading is martial arts nowadays ;) Nik > > I did find a bit of additional information about the Menu system in the Administrator > Guide handbook, and I will be looking at the XDG documentation to see what I can glean > there. > > Leslie > > > > > -- > > > dep > > > > > > Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album > > > Column: https://www.athensnews.com/opinion/columns/the_view_from_mudsock_ > > >heights/ ____________________________________________________ > > > tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > > Web mail archive available at > > > https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@trinitydes > > >ktop.org > > > > Leslie -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ... ____________________________________________________ tde-users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Web mail archive available at https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/hyperkitty/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
