Package: bonobo Severity: normal Version: 2.0.3.2 Synopsis: libbonoboui determines datadir path incorrectly Bugzilla-Product: bonobo Bugzilla-Component: libbonoboui Description: Description of Problem: libbonoboui can mess with a perfectly good datadir resulting in a non-existent path. I discovered this when testing that the Help->Contents option worked in Gnumeric 1.1.12. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Launch Gnumeric 1.1.12 2. Select Help->Contents 3. Note in the .xsession-errors that the help files cannot be found in /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/gnumeric/1.1.12-bonobo/share/help/gnumeric Actual Results: Error is produced because libbonoboui tacks "/share" onto the end of the application's prefix to determine datadir. Expected Results: Yelp should launch to the correct help document. How often does this happen? Every time Additional Information: I will attach a patch that fixes this. The same code exists in libbonoboui 2.1, so it could be applied there as well. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-gnome" in the body of the message
