Description Gerd Kohlberger 2007-02-05 20:13:14 UTC
Hi,

in configure.ac on line 333:

[  --disable-kde           Enable kde window decorator],
[use_kde=$enableval], [use_kde=yes])

I guess it should be --enable-kde and use_kde=no, or is it on purpose that both decorators are enabled by default?

Patch - disable kwd by default
Comment 2 David Reveman 2007-02-13 09:14:44 UTC
I don't see any reason why it should be disabled by default if all dependencies are available. Do you?
Comment 3 Gerd Kohlberger 2007-02-13 19:30:01 UTC
Well, since all gnome specific things are enabled by default, it would be consistent to disable kwd. If you have both qt & gtk headers installed, it will compile and install both decorators. Actually the patch was just a guess, because the configure option is wrong in either way (the description doesn't match the option).

It should be "--disable-kde  Disable kde window decorator" or "--enable-kde  Enable kde window decorator", not "--disable-kde Enable kde window decorator" like it is now.

Comment 4 David Reveman 2007-02-14 11:15:39 UTC
Yes, the description is wrong. I'll fix that.

I don't get why you think it would be consistent to disable kwd. I think it's consistent to enable both or disable both by default. There's no preferred decorator or desktop environment.

You're right, just wanted to make you aware of the typo. I'm closing this one.
