On upgrade from Karmic to Lucid, my sawfish configuration broke. One example is:
> sawfish-client
exec: 2: rep: not found
sawfish-client is part of the sawfish package, which depends on rep-gtk, which depends on librep9. In Karmic, librep9 contains /usr/bin/rep, but it no longer does in Lucid. This breaks the sawfish package, as is clear from the example above.
This is perhaps a problem in the sawfish package instead, but I reported it here since I figured it's an incompatible change in the functionality provided by librep9.
Workaround: Install rep manually. |
Binary package hint: librep

Error:
> sawfish-client
exec: 2: rep: not found
Solution:
Install rep package as sawfish depends
Regression:
I think there is no options for regressions, the unique necessary change is to make sawfish depends on rep. |
