Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.0.2-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I was using $gnome-control-center background and wanted to add some directories and images I had downloaded as a list in gnome-control-center background. This is the way I went about it.
a. Either go to Apps > System Tools > Preferences > GNOME System Settings > Background or use $gnome-control-center background b. Background gives three options Wallpapers, Pictures and Folders and Colors and Gradients. Use either wallpapers or Pictures and Folders and add a directory full of pictures. c. Now close it d. Come back again and try to see if its there. The images would not be there. This is tiring to do again and again. I do remember that GNOME 2.x used to use the .xml file from /usr/share/backgrounds/backgrounds.xml and that is/used to be a lot of chore to make an .xml file. It seems backgrounds still uses that. In any case the directory is not present in the next session :( -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IN, LC_CTYPE=en_IN (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-control-center depends on: ii accountsservice 0.6.14-1 ii apg 2.2.3.dfsg.1-2 ii desktop-file-utils 0.15-2 ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.0.2-3 ii gnome-desktop3-data 3.0.2-2 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.2.0-1 ii gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.2.0-2 ii gnome-menus 3.0.1-2 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.0.3-3 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.0.1-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-21 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libcairo2 1.10.2-6.1 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.28-2 ii libcanberra0 0.28-2 ii libcomerr2 1.42~WIP-2011-10-16-1 ii libcups2 1.5.0-8 ii libdbus-1-3 1.4.16-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.98-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3 ii libfreetype6 2.4.6-2 ii libgconf2-4 2.32.4-1 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.28.8-1 ii libgnome-control-center1 1:3.0.2-3 ii libgnome-desktop-3-0 3.0.2-2 ii libgnome-menu2 3.0.1-2 ii libgnomekbd7 3.2.0-1 ii libgnutls26 2.12.11-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.9.1+dfsg-3 ii libgtk-3-0 3.0.12-2 ii libgtop2-7 2.28.4-1 ii libk5crypto3 1.9.1+dfsg-3 ii libkrb5-3 1.9.1+dfsg-3 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.0-2 ii libnm-util2 0.9.0-2 ii libpango1.0-0 1.29.4-1 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.102-1 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 1.0-4 ii libpulse0 1.0-4 ii libstartup-notification0 0.12-1 ii libupower-glib1 0.9.14-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.4.4-2 ii libxi6 2:1.4.3-3 ii libxklavier16 5.1-2 ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 Versions of packages gnome-control-center recommends: ii gnome-session 3.0.2-3 ii gnome-user-guide 3.2.0.1-2 ii iso-codes 3.29-1 ii mousetweaks 3.2.0-1 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.102-2 Versions of packages gnome-control-center suggests: ii gnome-screensaver 3.0.1-1 ii gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio 0.10.30-1 ii libcanberra-gtk-module 0.28-2 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.6+3 ii xscreensaver 5.14-1 -- no debconf information -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
