Package: desktop-base
Version: 7.0.3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainers,
desktop-base uses the script
/usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma-desktop/init/10-desktop-base.js
to configure the KDE wallpaper for new users by writing the wallpaper into
$HOME/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc.
Instead of pointing to the symlink
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-background, which is configured through
the alternatives system, the script configures the wallpaper joy directly by
the line
a[i].writeConfig('wallpaper', 'joy') //change this in
wheezy+1
This leads to the problem that the KDE wallpaper will not change if I configure
another background via update-alternatives.
I suggest to change the line above to:
a[i].writeConfig('wallpaper',
'/usr/share/images/desktop-base/desktop-background')
so $HOME/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc will point to
"desktop-background" like it already did in Squeeze. This makes the KDE
wallpaper configurable via update-alternatives and also has the advantage that
nothing has to be changed in wheezy+1 ;-)
As "desktop-background" points to joy by default the user-experience will stay
the same.
Of course I have tested the suggested solution and it worked for me.
Thanks!
