analysis of rep-gtk2 problem when switching major OS versions

[Alexander Leidinger]

Hi,

I'm updating to gnome 2.12 on a machine ATM. While doing this I stumbled over
a provlem with rep-gtk2 (I'm using sawfish2).

It uses OSREL in the GNUHOST variable. This is wrong. It needs to use the
OSREL value which was active at the time librep was compiled. We can't guess
this value of-course, so if there's no way to get it from librep, it needs to
use <X> in $X11BASE/libexec/<version of librep>/$ARCH-pc-freebsd<X>.

Bye,
Alexander.
