keyboard-colors.json not found

[grantfreese]

Description:
The deb installer creates /etc/keyboard-color.json ('color' without an s), but the application appears to look for /etc/keyboard-colors.json ('color' with an s)

Environment:

• PopOS 19.04
• Cinnamon desktop
• Deb install of 1.1.0-beta5

Error message:

gfreese@pop-os:~$ which keyboard-color
/usr/bin/keyboard-color
gfreese@pop-os:~$ sudo keyboard-color run
Unhandled exception. System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load shared library 'libX11' or one of its dependencies. In order to help diagnose loading problems, consider setting the LD_DEBUG environment variable: liblibX11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Other notes:

• Haven't tried building/running from source yet
• Renaming keyboard-color.json to keyboard-colors.json results in a different error about being unable to load libX11 or one of its dependencies. (Probably a different issue, but that's a problem for tomorrow's me.)

libX11

Thanks, I probably need to add libX11 as a dependency to the .deb and ensure it's only needed when the setting is set to true.

🤦‍♂️

I'm not sure the dim when screen off will work on Cinnamon, but you can find out with the following command:

for i in {1..100}; do xset q; date ; sleep 5; done

Then try turning off the screen by locking it. You're looking for

Monitor is Off

to be in the output.
