Bluefish editor menu icons are missing
« on: January 31, 2019, 11:49:33 PM »
Any fans of the very fine Bluefish editor? 

Somehow during an extensions update session I went through in December, along the way I broke my favorite Bluefish editor.  The typical menu bar icons for New File, Open File, Save current file, etc have all dropped off leaving just a row of gray placeholder icons.  Any ideas or suggestions you can offer to get these reestablished?

thanks and best regards,
Billy

Hi Rudock1
That's not a lot of information to go on. The last update for bluefish.tcz was in 2014 so it was probably one of its
dependencies that got updated. Try running this command:
Code: [Select]
ls -ltr --full-time /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/*.tczThe most recent extensions will be at the bottom of the list which should help to narrow down the culprit.

did you try loading the adwaita-icon-theme extension?

Thanks, Tiny Core heroes, you guys are the best!

Hi Juanito, yes, bringing in the missing adwaita-icon-theme was the fix. 

Hi Rich, thanks for the hints and your ls -ltr --full-time example is now an alias (as lt) on my system, very handy to have!

thx
Billy

Bluefish looked interesting, so I installed it (TC10).  It crashes before I can do anything.

Hi TomyTurbos
Open a terminal and see what errors you get when you enter:
Code: [Select]
bluefish

Rich,

I'm on a different machine so let me just say 'LOTS' of errors.  At least 3 dozen relating to GTK.

The one that might be important here is an Xlib error '"XInputExtension" missing. ...'  This showed up 5 times at the end of the dialog.

The Warnings all said '... deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore, ...'.

I hope this helps.

That might be referring to  libinput.tcz,  but that's just a guess.

If you run:
Code: [Select]
bluefish > bluefish.txtyou could copy the  bluefish.txt  file and post the actual error list.

Are you using Xvesa, Xfbdev or Xorg-7.7?

Do things work with Xorg-7.7?

According to the interweb, this should fix it:

@ rich:  No joy.

@juanito:  Xorg-7.7 doesn't seem to like this machine (mini1010)

Hi TomyTurbos
So after removing that subdirectory you're still getting exactly that same error?

@ rich: Correct.

Also worth noting is that if this is run on-demand it re-creates that dir.
