/usr/share/terminfo as well as /usr/share/lib/terminfo
This allows fully functioning dtterm on Ubuntu 12.04 on which the terminfo file
failed to install.
The dtwm DefaultWindowMenu did not list any of the workspace enabled
Occupy commands, which makes it a bit difficult to move windows into a
workspace, or to occupy multiple workspaces.
This was rectified by copying the relevant lines from the
SampleWindowMenu sections containing them that already existed in the
localized files. Tested on C and DE (German).
instant should fail if the locale xlation db cannot be opened.
The reason this was failing was because the locale translation DB for
linux did not exist (Linux.lcx). I didn't add it until weeks/months
later :)
There needs to be one for each platform called "$(uname -s).lcx".
FreeBSD will need one too.
Note, there are still some issues with certain programs appearing not
to use their localized message catalogs properly, while others work
fine.
Also, in order to build these now, you need to make sure you have
installed the DE, ES, FR, and IT locales before building or you will
get failures. On [k]ubuntu, at least, you can install these with the
following commands:
sudo locale-gen de_DE
sudo locale-gen es_ES
sudo locale-gen fr_FR
sudo locale-gen it_IT
In order for this to work, dtsession must be setuid root. If
dtsession is not setuid root, then locking will be disabled, and a
message will be written to ~/.dt/errorlog with the message: "Unable to
lock display due to security restrictions".
Note, this requires that the xfonts-100dpi and
xfonts-100dpi-transcode[d] packages be installed. Kubuntu 11.10 calls
the transcoded package 'xfonts-100dpi-transcoded' while 12.04 calls it
'xfonts-100dpi-transcode'
You can also use the 75dpi variants if you wish, though they will look
crappy on larger monitors (>1024x768).
What we really need are more fonts installed, like all of the xf 75dpi
and 100dpi fonts. 100dpi looks much better than 75/72 dpi, especially
on any display larger than 1024x768. Of course, in the far future, we
should use the anti-aliased TT fonts everyone else uses these days
anyway.
Note, these still aren't quie working yet. Notably, font.dir needs to
be generated properly and re-committed so they will be used.
mkfontdir is used to do this, but currently it fails on these
font.alias files (does not recognize them).
Use the help system instead. Someday, if dtinfo can be made to work,
this can be undone easily. Note, you may have to clear out your ~/.dt
dir to see the change.
Under ubuntu at least, /bin/sh is really /bin/dash. For some reason,
dash cannot detect an executable (-x) file if it resides on nfs. bash
and ksh do not have this problem. Since ksh is already required to
build and install major portions of CDE, might as well use it here too.
Added proper SharedDtSvcReqs in lnxLib.tmpl and CplusplusLibC in
linux.cf. This allows the libstdc++ dependancy to be properly
declared for libDtSvc so that it is not neccessary to hardcode 'CCLINK
= g++' in the Imakefiles of programs linking angainst libDtSvc.
- by default, do not build any other locale than C for now
- do not try to build the guides. These require functioning
dtinfo/docbook
- add a Linux.lcx locale translation db. Not used yet.
- fix some overflows in dtdocbook/instant
- also some rework of linux.cf
- only allow ELF systems
- use -pipe
- add some more defines
- get rid of some of the ancient (libc5/linux 1) support. Really,
don't expect CDE to build right on such old systems.
- databases need linux specific entries for CDE-SHLIBS
- database Imakefile should undef the platform define (linux)
- installCDE fixes
- use $LOGFILE. There are still cases where tmp files are created
in /tmp.
- detect and set proper PLATFORM
- Check to see if a db exists before trying to use it
- don't print usage if you aren't root.
