Motivation for this change

Make xorg apps look as intended. Most notable change: xmag color picker is usable now.

Commit description

Before this commit, only two apps had properly configured resource paths: bitmap and xcalc. This commit automates and generalizes it to the rest of xorg.* apps.

xorg.bitmap: bin/bitmap-color is no longer installed. If you would like bitmap to be viewable in color, please refer to man 1 bitmap, selection COLORS. The described method is also applied to some other affected apps.

Affected apps are:

  • bitmap
  • editres
  • oclock
  • viewres
  • xcalc
  • xclock
  • xconsole
  • xdm
  • xfd
  • xfontsel
  • xgc
  • xload
  • xmag
  • xmessage
  • xmore
  • xsm
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Update: I forgot about bitmaps (e.g. button and menu icons). Now they should be displayed.

Thank you for your contributions.

This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.

Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

  1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
  2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse.
  3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.
