xubuntu-dapper: install and live cd

[daniele favara]

hi all,

i've seen from cjwatson bzr that xubuntu-dapper has its own folder :).

so now i have a guideline to write a wiki page.

As i told on one other mail, i think it could be useful to have a page
to monitor the xubuntu menu, and how it will look like.

i think it 's even the time to discuss the default icon theme, this
should help for desktop files within deb pkges.

ex:

type..

$ apt-file search  /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/xfce

all the pkges that install some stuff there may cause issues for
xubuntu theme, and in particular for the icon theme.

for ex the xfce settings panel at the moment has "hardcoded" icons ..
if i change the icons theme the panel will show still its icons.

A solution could be to change the Icon: entry in desktop files .. and
this should fix even a possible menu icon issue.

Let me know what you think about this....

ciao

PS: following a dirty script that shows the file to check, attached my results.

-------------

#!/bin/bash
#set -x
print_desktop(){
    pkge=$1
    sep=$2
    pkge_clean=${pkge/':'}
    list1=$(apt-file list $pkge_clean |awk '{print $2}')
    list=$(echo "$list1" | grep usr/share/applications/)

    if [ -n "$list" ]
    then
        for i in $list:
        do
            file=$(basename $i)
            echo $sep$sep $file
        done
    fi
}
a=$(apt-file search  /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/xfce | sort)
#a=$(cat /tmp/xubuntu-theme)
sep='--'
echo "Checking ..."
echo "Icon path: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/"
echo "Desktop file path: /usr/share/applications"
echo
while read line
do
    pkge=$(echo $line | awk '{print $1}')
    if [ -z "$(echo "$pkges" | grep $pkge)" ]
    then
        echo
        echo $pkge
        echo
        echo $sep 'desktop'
        print_desktop $pkge $sep
        pkges="$pkges $pkge"
        echo $sep 'icons'
    fi
    icon_full_path=$(echo $line | awk '{print $2}')
    icon=$(basename $icon_full_path)
    echo $sep$sep $icon
done <<<"$a"
