Subject: [bug#29447] [PATCH 0/2] Make Xorg modules configurable, remove WindowMaker dependency
Date: Sat, 25 Nov 2017 23:27:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171125222737.3255-1-ludo@gnu.org> (raw)
Hi,
The first patch here cleans up ‘xorg-configuration-file’ et al. such
that users can pass a list of modules to use (until now the list of
modules was hard-coded in ‘xorg-configuration-file’.)
The second one removes WindowMaker as the default fallback session.
Instead, the default is to look for a .desktop file at run time in the
user and system profiles.
The downside is that if no package provides a .dekstop file, then login
fails. I think that’s acceptable though, because people expect to
specify a list of window managers in the ‘packages’ field anyway, as
show in the lightweight-desktop example.
Thoughts?
Ludo’.
