Comment 1 Artem 2019-10-11 01:43:58 UTC
Yeah, this already reported in upstream icewm github. Many packages still not available for EPEL8. I already fixed and replaced legacy gnome-icon-theme package with Adwaita and will push soon update of IceWM. Then we need to build gdk_pixbuf package for EPEL8...

Comment 2 Nicholas Omann 2019-10-11 01:45:47 UTC
Sorry didn't look upstream. I did find that after enabling CentOS-PowerTools the gdk_pixbuf part went away.

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2019-10-11 06:35:22 UTC
FEDORA-EPEL-2019-2397b7ab84 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 8. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2019-2397b7ab84

Comment 4 Nicholas Omann 2019-10-11 12:42:03 UTC
Was able to get the build installed if I installed the wallpaper package should I expect a wallpaper to show up on the default theme? I only got a black screen. Everything else seemed fine but that was odd.

Comment 5 Artem 2019-10-11 12:56:46 UTC
There two IceWM session should appear if you installed 'icewm-minimal-session' package as well. By default only one, bloatware version with all handy stuff and wallpaper in 4K, which consume 70 Mb RAM BTW. Only if you run icewm-minimal-session then there is no wallpaper and just a black screen. But if wallpaper won't appear in RHEL8/CentOS8 in full IceWM session then this weird and then this a bug.

I hope i can test myself it in CentOS 8 soon.

Comment 6 Fedora Update System 2019-10-12 01:50:18 UTC
icewm-1.6.2-2.el8 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
