Description SEKINE Tatsuo 2004-06-03 16:04:33 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510

Description of problem:
From ver. 3.40-1, /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc script source only
/etc/X11/xinitr.d/*.sh scripts.
But all files located in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/ are not named "*.sh".


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xinitrc-3.41-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ls /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  xinput  xmbind


Expected Results:  xinput.sh  xmbind.sh

Additional info:

On my machine:
  $ rpm -qf /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*
  xinitrc-3.41-1
  openmotif-2.2.3-2

I do not install full package, thus I don't know whether there are no
other package influenced by this problem.

Comment 1 Radu Cornea 2004-06-03 18:38:58 UTC
The latest update of xinitrc broke my xinit scripts too. None of the
scripts in xinitrc.d have a .sh extension, what was the reason for
changing xinitrc to only run the .sh files?

From /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc:

# run all system xinitrc shell scripts.
for file in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/* ; do
    if echo $file | grep -q "\.sh$" ; then
        . $file
    else
        echo "warning: $file does not end in .sh extension, ignoring"
    fi
done

Add myself (khirano) to CC.  Thanks.

Comment 3 SEKINE Tatsuo 2004-06-07 02:34:39 UTC
Probably /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is not used on GDM(/gnome-session) 
login.
In that case, /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession file is used for startup session.

Either way, what should be fixed is file names 
under /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/.

BTW, if file "xiput" is not sourced, most of CJK users couldn't  
input any his/her native language characters.

It means that CJK users can do nothing on FC2 desktop system now :-<
I change severity to "HIGH" and add keyword "i18n".


Comment 4 Need Real Name 2004-06-16 08:44:45 UTC
I guess that the reason for only sourcing *.sh files
was to avoid executing files like xinput.rpmnew or
xinput.rpmorig ;-)
