>Description:
In the x11/gdm Makefile, the line
SUBST_SED.desktop+= -e 's|^\#Logo=.*$$|Logo=@EXPANDED_PIXMAPDIR@/NetBSD.xpm|g'
attempts to patch the default.conf config file with the proper
path to the NetBSD logo. Unfortunately, nothing ever sets
@EXPANDED_PIXMAPDIR@, which results in the unhelpful
gdm/default.conf entry
# Logo shown in the standard greeter.
Logo=@EXPANDED_PIXMAPDIR@/NetBSD.xpm
-- no logo.
>How-To-Repeat:
Start gdm after update, find the logo is gone.
Browse /usr/pkg/share/gdm/defaults.conf.
>Fix:
Set @EXPANDED_PIXMAPDIR@ properly. Left as an exercise to the
maintainer -- the Makefile is too long to wrap my mind around
quickly.
