Currently gtkhotkey dependendency is automagic meaning it can't be disabled if gtkhotkey exists in the system. This makes it troublesome for source based distros such as Gentoo. So please provide a flag or something (I don't know how to do that in cmake) for disabling gtkhotkey dependency even if it exists. Thanks, Serkan Kaba Gentoo Developer |

I didn't think that cmake would be this simple. Here's a patch to disable gtkhotkey detection by a flag.

Hi there, I make a few mistakes with the build system for 0.5.8, Including the gtkhotkey dependency issue. My bad! I will be releasing either a fixed 0.5.8 or a 0.5.8 very soon. Sorry!!!

Hey Man, Not sure what you mean by "which controls it?" The issue was fixed for 0.5.9. I don't remember if I actually applied your patch, but it certainly made me aware of the problem so I'll include you in the contributors list for the next one (or maybe an more correctly) add you to the 0.5.9 release notes. Sorry I forgot to do it for 0.5.9 but I released it in a panic/rush. I didn't even update the GnomeFiles site after that release! Anyway, full name and email please so I can include it in the notes/code! a. |

which controls it? I meant to type "Which flag controls it?" here. My patch allowed to have a flag -DGTKHOTKEY=ON (although -DWITH_GTKHOTKEY seems more logical to be similar to way KDE4 uses cmake flags) For credits include the following info: Serkan Kaba <serkan@gentoo.org> Thanks. |

What I meant was it had an automagic dep. on gtkhotkey which means there's no way to disable gtkhotkey integration if gtkhotkey exists in the system. |

Right, that's the way it's supposed to work. If gtkhotkey is installed on your system
then presumably you want applications to take advantage of that functionality.
Otherwise it wouldn't be installed. It seems odd to me that you'd have gtkhotkey
installed but not want an app to use it. In any case, if it's enabled you could just
not use it :-)

This makes packaging problematic for source based distros such as Gentoo. Here's a documentation on why this causes problems for Gentoo. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/automagic.xml My patch was in fact fixed this and introduced a flag to cmake for controlling gtkhotkey dependency. |
