MDIndexing preference pane problem

Not sure Enrico is still around so forwarding here

Hi Enrico,

With gnustep trunk SystemPreferences shows an error dialog when
loading MDIndexing.prefPane.

I worked around this problem by renaming Preferences/Info.plist to
MDIndexingInfo.plist and modifying the makefile with the following
patch :

Index: GNUmakefile
===================================================================
--- GNUmakefile (révision 28737)
+++ GNUmakefile (copie de travail)
@@ -1,4 +1,3 @@
-PACKAGE_NAME = gworkspace
 include $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/common.make
 
 BUNDLE_NAME = MDIndexing
@@ -17,7 +16,6 @@
 MDIndexing_PRINCIPAL_CLASS = MDIndexing
 
 MDIndexing_RESOURCE_FILES = \
-Info.plist \
 MDIndexing.tiff \
 Resources/categories.plist \
 Resources/Images/* \

I'm not sure why but it works for me !

Hope this helps,
Philippe

Hello Philippe,

Enrico is sadly no longer active, I always hope he will get back once he
finds the time again, but for now I try my best to keep GWorkspace from
bitrotting.
Thank you for your suggestion here, I applied it in a slightly different
form.

Why did you remove the package_name? I did not need to remove that: this
way the domain installation preferences are honoured.

I hope the change I did works for you too.

Riccardo

Ok great. I'll update and get back to you if there's a problem.

That was a mistake. I have to say there's a little bit to much magic in
makefiles for me. It's probably documented somewhere and I read about it
on the mailing list but I forgot. All gnustep-make magic should be here
to simplify our makefiles don't you think ?!

Thanks,
Philippe

By the way, another thing about GWorkspace.

Don't you think ContentViewersProtocol.h should be included in
Inspector.framework ? As of now, any out of tree inspector has to
carry a copy of this file, a bad thing in my opinion.

Thanks,
Philippe
