Description Göran Uddeborg 2003-08-10 20:05:29 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030703

Description of problem:
This package contains some files which seems to be backup copies from the
creation.  They would not belong in the package, it seems:

/usr/share/themes/HighContrastLargePrint/index.theme~
/usr/share/themes/HighContrastLargePrintInverse/index.theme~
/usr/share/themes/LowContrast/index.theme~
/usr/share/themes/LowContrastLargePrint/index.theme~


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-themes-2.2-5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.rpm -ql gnome-themes | grep \~

I talked to the upstream people, and this is not an actual bug. The index.theme~
files were meant to be installed, so that you can enable these themes easily (by
renaming the file). But they are not enabled by default in order to not clutter
up the theme dialog with lots of a11y themes.

Pretty bizzare way of doing this, but its intended....

Oh, I thought this happened in the packaging!

I find it confusing, and it breaks cleanup of backup files ending in ~, so I
filed a RFE: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121778  We'll see what
they reply.
