wbar is broken if /apps/scm_name/share/pixmaps/scm_name.png is a link

<< < (2/3) > >>

Jason W:
This morning was the first knowledge I had that a .png file existing as a link to an icon in the same extension was an issue, and they will be fixed at my first opportunity which is tonight.  Upstream apps are often known to use symlinks in their default make install for the same file needing to exist in 2 different places, perhaps that is where one or some instances came from as I normally copy when needing to add an icon.   Or perhaps the icon somewhere in the /apps/extension/share/icons/ directory was used, where they are symlinked icons as well and is often pointed to by XFullIconPath.  But since it is now a known issue, the pixmaps/*.png entries will be double checked to exist as a real file. 

Jason W:
After testing all existing scms, I found the lone offender that used a symlink for a .png - opera-11.scm.  It is now fixed. 

AbNoRMiS:
sorry, end up i don't understand
it will be fixed in the scripts that manage scms?
or when creating your scm will need to monitor and correct this point?

Jason W:
When creating an scm, make sure that the "/apps/extension/pixmaps/extension.png"  is a real file and not a symlink to a file, as indicated by the initial claim of error.  Which extension showed this error anyway?

AbNoRMiS:
i asked because i ran into this problem when creating scm
