| user6997 | hello folks, is it safe to install the icon pack from here: http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/p/artwork.html on debian? | 16:32 |
|---|---|---|
| user6997 | 'cause the fellas on the debian irc say it's not | 16:33 |
| wxl | user6997: and what reason do they have for that? | 16:34 |
| user6997 | wxl, they just said it was a bad idea and didn't elaborate. | 16:35 |
| wxl | user6997: then i'd probably ignore them. | 16:36 |
| user6997 | ok, so I should be good then? | 16:36 |
| wxl | user6997: i don't see any reason why not. are you using debian? | 16:36 |
| user6997 | wxl, indeed I am. | 16:37 |
| wxl | user6997: and the blog says any debian based system would work, no? | 16:37 |
| user6997 | wxl, indeed it does, however the debian folks were telling me that installing a ppa could break things | 16:38 |
| wxl | user6997: of course they could. that's always a risk. | 16:39 |
| wxl | user6997: that's a risk on any ppa on any system | 16:39 |
| wxl | user6997: but with artwork? i doubt it will have any significant, earth-shattering effect even if it did break something. | 16:39 |
| user6997 | wxl, but this is just icons though | 16:39 |
| user6997 | and a themne | 16:39 |
| wxl | user6997: exactly, carry on :) | 16:40 |
| user6997 | wxl, thank you good sir | 16:40 |
| wxl | user6997: my concern is that it won't work because it doesn't reference debian codenames | 16:40 |
| user6997 | wxl, how would I check weather or not it worked? | 16:41 |
| wxl | user6997: because it will say it installed something :) | 16:41 |
| user6997 | it says gpg: imported: 1 | 16:42 |
| wxl | user6997: try sudo apt-get -y install lubuntu-artwork | 16:43 |
| wxl | it shouldn't work | 16:43 |
| wxl | instead you should just download the icons and theme | 16:43 |
| user6997 | unable to locate :( | 16:44 |
| wxl | user6997: unable to locate the download? | 16:44 |
| user6997 | wxl unable to locate with sudo apt-get -y install lubuntu-artwork | 16:45 |
| wxl | user6997: which relates to my comment about the debian codenames not being used. just download the icons and theme and manually install. | 16:46 |
| user6997 | wxl, how do i install it with the tar.gz? | 16:46 |
| user6997 | I don't usually use that kind of package | 16:46 |
| wxl | user6997: well, download, unzip and use obconf or whatever | 16:47 |
| Eliz | Just download the deb and install it with dpkg would work alright no? | 16:47 |
| wxl | Eliz: naw, still no reference to debian. | 16:47 |
| Eliz | Mmm I'll have to toy with that idea later. | 16:47 |
| user6997 | wxl what is obconf? | 16:47 |
| wxl | user6997: open box configuration | 16:48 |
| wxl | user6997: you could always ask the debian guys to tell you how to do it given the fact you have a theme and icons | 16:48 |
| user6997 | wxl, true. | 16:49 |
| ianorlin | also lxappearnce has some options for installing it | 16:55 |
