Hi, I will close this bug for different reasons:
This patch deletes the background file, and then uses the files at the desktop-base package. To do it, we need to add desktop-base as dependency of the wmaker package, but really wmaker don't needs desktop-base to run. Your patch says: + cd $(DEBTMPDIR)/$(WMSHAREDIR)/Backgrounds/ && \ + ln -s ../../images/desktop-base/Debian.jpg Debian.jpg Now, if we see the desktop-base files, this file don't exists (/usr/share/images/destkop-base/Debian.jpg), but probably we should use the link "desktop-background": kix@osaka:/usr/share/images/desktop-base$ ls -l desktop-background lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 dic 18 01:21 desktop-background -> /etc/alternatives/desktop-background kix@osaka:/usr/share/images/desktop-base$ ls -l /etc/alternatives/desktop-background lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 53 dic 18 01:21 /etc/alternatives/desktop-background -> /usr/share/images/desktop-base/spacefun-wallpaper.svg and in the manual page of wmsetbg: "wmsetbg reads the specified image (XPM, PNG, jpeg, Tiff, raw PPM)", not svg file type. Therefore: a) IMO, desktop-base is not needed to run wmaker. We don't need it as "Depends:", perhaps as "Suggests:" b) Because wmsetbg don't support (yet ;-) ) svg files, then, we are not sure that the default image can be loaded. I added desktop-base as suggest in the wmaker package, then, probably this "bug" should be closed: Suggests: wmaker-data, menu, x11-apps, xosview, wterm | x-terminal-emulator, desktop-base Comments are welcome.
