Description:
GNOME Flashback is a session for GNOME 3 which was initially called "GNOME
Fallback", and shipped as a stand-alone session in Debian and Ubuntu. It
provides a similar user experience to the GNOME 2.x series sessions. The
differences to the MATE project is that GNOME Flashback uses GTK+ 3 and tries to
follow the current GNOME development by integrating recent changes of the GNOME
libraries. The development currently lags behind a little but a lot of progress
has been made and most importantly many open bugs have been fixed.

Comment 1 Artem 2020-02-24 13:53:51 UTC
I would really like to co-maintain this with Yaakov Selkowitz and appreciate his efforts to package it.

Comment 2 Artem 2020-02-28 12:35:28 UTC
Note: for fedora-review use

  fedora-review -b 1806537 -m fedora-31-x86_64

since this is for current GNOME 3.34 version.

Comment 3 Robert-André Mauchin 🐧 2020-03-20 19:26:40 UTC
 - You need to check the desktop file:

desktop-file-validate %{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications/%{name}.desktop

 - You need to add SystemD user units scriptlets:


- systemd_user_post is invoked in %post and systemd_user_preun in %preun
  for Systemd user units service files.
  Note: Systemd user unit service file(s) in gnome-flashback
  See: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-
  guidelines/Scriptlets/#_user_units

BuildRequires: systemd-rpm-macros

[…]

%post
%systemd_user_post %{name}.service

%preun
%systemd_user_preun %{name}.service

  file-validate if there is such a file.

  for Systemd user units service files.
  Note: Systemd user unit service file(s) in gnome-flashback

Comment 4 Yaakov Selkowitz 2020-03-20 19:42:43 UTC
(In reply to Robert-André Mauchin from comment #3)
>  - You need to check the desktop file:

It cannot be validated because GNOME Flashback uses an still-unregistered desktop name/variant, nor can it be X-prefixed because it relies on the exact naming internally.

Comment 6 Artem 2020-03-23 16:48:43 UTC
Thanks everyone for help. Fixed, but successful validation desktop file and this new XDG entries still not possible in Fedora.
