I've confirmed that a fvwm2 and fvwm2-devel with Gnome support, e.g.
built after the installation of Gnome (fvwm-gnome-2.4.6 and
fvwm-gnome-2.5.0) will hang when started by fvwm-themes. However when
fvwm2 and fvwm2-devel are built without Gnome support, e.g. fvwm-2.4.6
and fvwm-2.5.0, the fvwm-themes port works.
The fvwm-themes port should refuse to install when Gnome is installed
or at the very least print a message warning users that it cannot be
used with an fvwm with Gnome support, e.g.,
.if exists($(PREFIX)/bin/gnome-config)
BROKEN="fvwm-themes will not work if used with an fvwm built with Gnome
support"
.endif
Thoughts anyone?
