Description Paul Bredbury 2006-04-02 22:47:59 UTC

Hi, xcursor-themes-1.0.1 does not create animation symlinks. E.g. in
/usr/share/cursors/xorg-x11/redglass/cursors/ the following symlinks are missing:

08e8e1c95fe2fc01f976f1e063a24ccd -> left_ptr_watch
arrow -> right_ptr
cross_reverse -> cross
crosshair -> cross
draft_large -> right_ptr
draft_small -> right_ptr
plus -> cross
tcross -> cross
top_left_arrow -> left_ptr

Sorry about the phenomenal bug spam, guys.  Adding xorg-team@ to the QA contact so bugs don't get lost in future.

These appear to have been created by the CursorLinkTarget lines in
the Imakefile - matching lines to install symlinks in the Makefile.am
need to be added:

% grep LinkTarget xc/programs/xcursorgen/redglass/Imakefile
#define CursorLinkTarget(dst,src)                                       @@\

CursorLinkTarget(draft_large,right_ptr)
CursorLinkTarget(draft_small,right_ptr)

CursorLinkTarget(tcross,cross)
