[FIFO] LMMS 0.4.1

Hi,

I'm now the maintainer of LMMS. The way to compile it has changed since 0.3.2, so here's the package to test.

I still have the same problem with the "Icon" part on the .desktop: when I use sed in command line after a "installpkg" directly on /usr/share/applications/lmms.desktop, it works. But the file in $startdir/pkg/ is not modified when the ZenBuild is running... I don't understand why...

SNAPSHOT

In comparison the two lmms.desktop files, I found that the original has already pointed to

Code:

/usr/share/lmms/themes/default/icon.png

In the package, it is only

Code:

/usr/share/lmms/themes/default/icon

I could be wrong, but the icon itself is 64x64 which may be okay, but according to the packaging rule:

Code:

16. All icons are to be installed to the "usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/" or "usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/" directories depending on the icon type svg or png. "usr/share/pixmaps" is forbidden for menus, still allowed for internal application images, but strongly discouraged. Internal application images should be placed in /usr/share/app-name/some-directory (most apps do it this way, btw) 

So, you might want to resize image to 48x48, create $startdir/pkg/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps and then place it in that directory as lmms.png and your sed can become

Code:

sed -i "s:/usr/share/lmms/themes/default/icon.png:lmms:g" $startdir/pkg/usr/share/applications/lmms.desktop

If you have ImageMagick installed, you can add the following instead:

Code:

mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps
convert $startdir/pkg/usr/share/lmms/themes/default/icon.png -sample 48x48 $startdir/pkg/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/lmms.png
sed -i "s:/usr/share/lmms/themes/default/icon.png:lmms:g" $startdir/pkg/usr/share/applications/lmms.desktop

I didn't test the app btw.

Yes, I also thought about placing the icon in 48x48. I will do that, finally...

Done.
Now the icon is in 48x48.
