JHBuild instruction changes



Just wanted to give a heads up on three changes I made to:

 http://live.gnome.org/OnlineDesktop/Jhbuild

You may want to adapt your configuration accordingly.

 1. Changed the recommended build-the-desktop command to:

     jhbuild build meta-online-desktop

    Previously 'online-desktop' was being abused as both the
    online-desktop module and a meta target. But that got the
    dependency between online-desktop and bigboard backwards.

 2. Changed /usr/local/bin/run-online-desktop to use 
    
     [...] dbus-launch --exist-with-session [...]

    Previously you'd get a left-over dbus-daemon each time you logged in
    and logged out.

 3. Changed the recommended addition to
    ~/od/install/etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml
    to have both the JHBuild server directory and the system directory,
    in that order. This is necessary so that the JHbuild version of
    the servers is preferred to the system directory.

    Previously it just had the system directory, which caused a reversed
    ordering.

    (I'm not 101% sure this is necessary ... I convinced myself of it,
    but I might have screwed up my testing.)
