tags 297858 patch
thanks
The problem is that $(MAKE) install triggers
update-desktop-database, which fails if run without root privileges.
The patch I've written removes install/uninstall hooks, since I
think that everything that can be called via these hooks should
be run at package-install time anyway, rather that at build time.
Probably drivel should run update-desktop-database when it is
installed, I've got a patch for that too (available at
<URL:http://greek0.net/~greek0/patches>). If you wish I can submit a
new bug report against drivel with that patch attatched.
Cheers,
Greek0
