Re: setup.exe problem


Sam,

The reason I chided you is that I happen to have inside knowledge that this 
is a change ('problem') with the openbox package, not with setup.exe.  
Version 0.99.1-3 of openbox installs to /usr/X11R6 (as many users requested) 
rather than /usr as used in previous versions of openbox.

Thus, the files you are looking for are in /usr/X11R6/share...

This is the sort of thing that made me hesitant in changing the prefix 
from /usr to /usr/X11R6.  (Though Chuck had some excellent points that I 
don't think can be addressed in any other way.)

So, the question is, does openbox work as expected with the 0.99.1-3 
package?  Or, is openbox trying to find its files in /usr/share still?
