obconf2

Hi,

Just tried to install obconf2 ... now getting this error

 obconf2
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/obconf2/callbacks.rb:312:in `initial_settings': undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
        from /usr/bin/obconf2:76:in `main'
        from /usr/bin/obconf2:85

Wondered if it works for anyone else ?

I am running openbox-svn 5673-1

Re: obconf2

I installed obconf2 today following instructions on Obconf trac page and I get this error when I try to run it:

Obconf window pops up for 0,5 second and dissapears

Re: obconf2

Works when running as root ... though I would not change any settings ...

Re: obconf2

Ok, there's a new package in my repo (http://arch.nooms.de/) and also a fixed version of ruby-libglade (had to call it ruby-libglade2). Both work without any issues for me. You'll need pacman3 to be able to use the packages, if you don't have that yet you can find the PKGBUILDS at http://hg.nooms.de/pkgbuilds/.

Re: obconf2

Updated both packages this morning ....

 obconf2
/usr/bin/obconf2:78:in `set_cursor': wrong argument type nil (expected Data) (TypeError)
        from /usr/bin/obconf2:78:in `main'
        from /usr/bin/obconf2:85

using pacman3

looking at pkgbuild for obconf2-svn it shows deps as lib-glade ? unless you have not updated them yet [not sure if I am right!]

If you need any other output then let me know kinda scratching me head here :-)

Re: obconf2

cat themerc | obthemetoxml > themerc.xml

A dirty python script was thinking about but mixing bash and python is messy

but my bash skills are none.....

its the command line thats the problem

ok take a list of file paths [ > themerc ] then run a loop to scan then cat as above ...

in other words reconfigure themerc to themerc.xml

Help!!!!

Quit, dirty and untested - but it should work:

for i in ~/.themes/* ; do if [ -f "$i/openbox-3/themerc" ] ; then cat "$i/openbox-3/themerc" | obthemetoxml > "$i/openbox-3/themerc.xml" ; fi ; done

Openbox is currently under heave development and some parts in its libraries (which obconf2 uses) change sometimes. We just need to wait for obconf2 to catch up on this.
