[WBEL-devel] WBEL4 RC1 GDM artwork dependency

[Sean Atkinson]

Hi,

I've been testing WBEL4 RC1 installations, and generally it all seems
great thanks. However I've noticed one issue which doesn't seem to have
been reported on this list, so I thought it might help to detail it.

A manual "Workstation" class install boots fine. However with a smaller
kick-start install of only "@ gnome-desktop" packages GDM
misses /usr/share/gdm/themes/Default/Default.xml with the shipped
"GraphicalTheme=Default" line in gdm.conf. It turns out that
gdm-2.6.0.5-6 still requires redhat-artwork >= 0:0.112-2, and instead
needs system-artwork 0.120-1.1E.WB1, which includes a sym-link from
Default to WBEL for GDM to work.

HTH,

Sean.

Someone else already noticed a similar problem. The final release adds
a 'Provides: redhat-artwork = %{version}' line to the system-artwork
.spec so anaconda should be able solve the dependency.
