Hi kuboosoft ... perfect ... someone supports fedora ;-) ... can u place the spec file so that i can see more details on how u build and get a better overview about this error?

@dirkdavidis Here my spec file, with travis integration, it compiled fine and made the rpm, but running the app fail... https://github.com/UnitedRPMs/komorebi

as far as i understand it is an issue with the desktop entry ... but this doesnt make any sense to me ... let me build it based on your spec and coming back to you ... to see if i got any solution ...

Hi, where have u placed the .desktop file? in /usr/share/applications?

dirkdavidis avatar Sep 09 '17 07:09 dirkdavidis

The path is correct with .desktop; I edited it

[makerpm@localhost ~]$ cat /usr/share/applications/komorebi.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Komorebi
Comment=An awesome wallpapers manager
Keywords=wallpaper;settings; preferences;
Icon=/usr/share/Komorebi/komorebi.svg
Exec=/usr/bin/komorebi
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Categories=GNOME;GTK;System;

I am not sure what I need edit for solve it... Unity makes strength! hahaha


  • Updated

The bin doesn't make a "default" $HOME/.Komorebi.prop . This should be automatic by the executable. But the above error ask for my path of build...
