Possible bug in OpenBox autostart.sh script

I’m not absolutely positive, but I think the following is a bug in /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh

24# Make GTK apps look and behave how they were set up in the gnome config tools
25if test -x /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon >/dev/null; then
26 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon &
27elif which gnome-settings-daemon >/dev/null; then
28 gnome-settings-daemon &

I think it should be

24# Make GTK apps look and behave how they were set up in the gnome config tools
25if test -x /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon >/dev/null; then
26 /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gnome-settings-daemon &
27elif which gnome-settings-daemon >/dev/null; then
28 gnome-settings-daemon &

because on my install, gnome-settings-daemon is in a directory called gnome-settings-daemon, and it isn’t in my $PATH

That’s right. Actually I’ve seen similar bugs (wrong paths) in /etc/xdg/openbox/autostart.sh on other distros as well. If you create the file ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh, the one in /etc/xdg/openbox is ignored. That’s what I do. You may try to submit a bugreport though.
