Subject: Sugar X cursor not used

Date: Thu, 12 Nov 2009 23:11:15 +0100

Package: sugar-0.86,sugar-0.84
Severity: normal


sugar doesn't show the custom X cursor, only the standard X11 one. There's no error message in the logs.
For sugar-jhbuild we had to set XCURSOR_PATH, but setting it (to /usr/share/icons) doesn't seem to make a difference for the Debian packages.

There we are: [1]

I'm starting to remember about this...
I've reported this bug (icon-slicer failing silently if xcursorgen 
fails) to the original author (Owen Taylor), but was told we (i.e. 
SugarLabs) had taken over maintenance of the package. :)
Will start poking around again.

I.e. you want me to reassign #555963 from sugar-* to sugar-artwork-*?

IIRC this list get's CCed anyway, but might be a good idea to use the 
bug address so it's archived on bugs.debian.org as well.

Ah, ok.

As a Debian-specific workaround, I will make icon-slicer depend on 
x11-apps containing xcursorgen.  But still it should be fixed upstream - 
and all the more convenient if that is... you! :-D

Whoops, my fault: I missed out that in fact you filed a bug report - and 
I responded to the list directly.

Nah, not important to reassign - we maintain all packages together in 
same team, and besides I don't expect this to be solved soon - thanks to 
your precious help and deep knowledge on the issue ;-)

Actually that is The Right Thing - the bug I mentioned is that the build 
continues instead of aborting, not that it doesn't work without 
xcursorgen.

...and that _is_ a bug which should be fixed IMHO.

I am not a C coder, but it seems to just need an exit (1) line after 
discovering that the command failed.

Now it works for me.  This bug is closed with new uploads to Sid, being 
released right about now - and fixed backports are already released for 
Lenny.

Thanks for the help, Sascha :-)
