I backed my gnome up to Jul 7, and rebuilt, and everything works fine
in gnome. I then cvsup'd to this morning, and did the following:
- pkg_remove all 'old' ports
- rebuilt /usr/ports/x11/gnome
- tried to start gnome
and got the same .xsession errors:
** WARNING **: No system menus found!
** WARNING **: menu /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/gnome/apps does not exist (arguments are .)
I TRACKED THIS DOWN to /usr/ports/gnomecore/work/gnome-core01.4.1/panel/menu.c
note the following lines:
(line 162)
menu = gnome_datadir_file ("gnome/apps");
...
(line 166)
menu = gnome_datadir_file ("applets");
now as far as I gnow (sorry) 'apps' and 'applets' are in the same area
of the hierarchy:
/usr/X11R6/share/gnome
drwxr-xr-x 8 root wheel 512 Jul 13 08:26 applets
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jul 13 09:35 application-registry
drwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 512 Jul 13 08:26 applications
drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 512 Jul 13 10:37 apps
...
(no gnome directory)
so it can't find the apps.
These lines are also elsewhere in menu.c, but clearly something ain't
right...
It looks like the 'gnomeng' change boogered something up, hope this
info is useful...
