By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Felix Miata 2020-10-16 20:46:46 CDT 
Initial summary:
TDM broken: [TDM][openSUSE TW] /etc/trinity/tdm/Xsession: line 46: /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession: No such file or directory

Not so recently TW started moving most content from /etc/X11/ to /usr/etc/X11/. Now exists
/usr/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession, not /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession. A symlink created between expected file and existing file works around failure. TDE session works normally started by startx from vtty login.

openSUSE Tumbleweed 20201014

TDM fails to start any kind of X session, e.g. TDE, IceWM or Awesome. I suspect this might have some relationship:

[quote]/usr/bin/Xorg is now a shell script running
/usr/bin/Xorg.wrap if present or /usr/bin/Xorg.bin otherwise.
previously,  /usr/bin/Xorg was /usr/bin/Xorg.bin.[/quote]

Comment 1 Slávek Banko 2020-10-17 18:43:09 CDT 
This seems to be a distribution-specific thing - see patching specifically for suse in tde-packaging:

https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde-packaging/src/branch/master/redhat/main/tdebase/tdebase.spec#L3272

Therefore, I believe that the problem will be solved again specifically for the distribution and it does not block the release of R14.0.9.

François, please, can you confirm that?
Comment 2 Felix Miata 2020-10-17 20:10:25 CDT 
KDM3 has the same problem, with fix impending:
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1177824

In openSUSE the change is a part of an overall change moving distro (& upstream?) configs out of /etc/ into /usr/etc/, so that only sysadmin configs remain in /etc/. As time permits I will be investigating whether Fedora and/or Mageia will be or are making a similar change.
Comment 3 Felix Miata 2020-10-17 23:59:48 CDT 
Fixed KDM3 is already on the mirrors.
https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/842334 shows patchset.

Comment 4 Francois Andriot 2020-10-18 14:39:09 CDT 
Hello, yes, I will add a distro specific patch directly in the spec file.
There is no need to patch source code.
Comment 5 Michele Calgaro 2020-11-05 08:05:20 CST 
What is the status of this bug? Is the patch ready?

> What is the status of this bug? Is the patch ready?

Hello, I'm currently building packages for opensuse TW. I will release them, including patch, when TDM works as expected.
Comment 7 Michele Calgaro 2020-11-06 00:06:58 CST 
Great, thanks for the feedback Francois. I will leave it to you to close this bug once you are done with your patches :-)
And thanks for all the work you do on RPM packaging.
Comment 8 Michele Calgaro 2021-04-25 19:44:34 CDT 
Hi Francois,
just checking if it is ok to close this bug now.
Comment 9 Felix Miata 2021-04-27 22:35:58 CDT 
I have 2 of 2 TDM on TW installations no longer requiring a workaround. TDM not broken now! :)
Comment 10 Michele Calgaro 2021-04-27 23:06:40 CDT 
Great, thanks for the feedback Felix.
