Yes, though I've a vague idea of being on old systems where /usr/X11 was a symlink to .. so /usr/X11/lib/X11 became /usr/lib/X11. :-) > Thus, if I call 'gxditview' freshly installed from groff sources, the > file installed in /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults/GXditview is not > found. Does `install' make all those directories or does /usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults exist and what else is in it? > "Since the default location for app-defaults files in X.Org 7 is now > /usr/share/X11/app-defaults [...]" > > Finally. http://www.faqs.org/faqs/x-faq/part2/section-22.html says: I expect the FAQ hasn't been edited in a long time. > So it seems to me that we should move GXditview into > /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/ Seems fair enough to switch to x.org's default, though it might create work for packagers; that might be taking out what they had to override groff's default. Cheers, Ralph.
