Description hexile461 2025-11-14 17:54:48 UTC 
SUMMARY
This should build using a default image set.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:16 (message):
  GREETER_IMAGES_DIR must be provided!


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
clone repo, run cmake, get error

OBSERVED RESULT
Not enough information to build from source. I don't want to F around with cmake.

EXPECTED RESULT
Build a usable result using default images

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I wanted to test if building from the github repo resolves https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=512091  but it was fruitless.
