Re: icons
I use fedora so I set it for an RPM in the create package. It installs whatever dependencies are required as the programs run, just does not have the stock imagery. So the answer as to what is installed on the clean system is whatever the default is from the RPM.
icons
I feel like I am asking too many questions here but that is how we learn. I have several projects and have noticed 2 things that I can't seem to make happen. 1.. if I use icons (stock) for buttons then look good and work until I install using the generated RPM on a clean system. program works fine b...

Re: need help with updates for my program
for my purposes I want to remove the user as much as possible and have the program do the work. Just let user provide root password for update each time. This makes it tougher on me because I try to make sure that the user does not need to install all kinds of other things to function or make any ch...

Re: need help with updates for my program
I just figured it out I think. the command used in your sudo program was missing the semicolon. should be echo <password> | sudo -S; <command>
the subtle difference is the semicolon after the -S seems to make it work.

Re: need help with updates for my program
Thank you, I looked over your program and tried to implement the shell sudo command unsuccessfully. I ran your program and even though I am putting in the correct password for root, (checked using stop to see the variables) it still says invalid password. this is happening in your program at the she...

I also have a web host to put my stuff onto but just need to move the downloaded program into the application directory which is usually bin.

Re: need help with updates for my program
an interesting possibility however I am trying to make this self contained in the program and not require additional software to be installed.
I have also been exploring creating a repo for my stuff but I do not have root access to the web host I would use. so createrepo will not help me.

Re: Can't create RPM
that is the issue. there are no pictures being handled in this. I am having the issue in several projects and I think it may be a permission issue but the error does not tell me where or what.
