[opensuse-gnome] Unassigned bugreports
by Magnus Boman 06 Mar '08

06 Mar '08

Hello! I sent this email previously but made a mistake and it ended up in -announce... :-/ I just did a quick bugzilla query of all unassigned GNOME bug reports and found 270 of them. Some of these reports are very old, and some are new, but instinct tells me that unless someone keeps going through these reports over and over, they might fall between the chairs. I'd like to suggest that we all have a look at http://tinyurl.com/2c8ksy and assign bugs as appropriate. By having all bugs assigned, at least we have someone in charge. To find out who could be assigned to certain bugs, have a look at http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Directory. I would hope that if someone gets a bug assigned to them and it's not their cup of tea, they might be able to figure out who the proper person would be, or simply assign it back to bnc-team-gnome(a)novell.com If someone objects to this, please let me know. Meanwhile (ie, while people object) I'd appreciate if you could all start working on this :-) Thanks, Magnus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] libwnck patches
by Vincent Untz 06 Mar '08

06 Mar '08

Hi, So, I wanted to play a bit with the patch upstreaming project, and I chose libwnck to start. I don't want to break things or something else, so I'm sending the results here, to get some comments/help. There are four patches: + libwnck-2.12.2-window-move-1.patch This is... crazy. This adds a new API: wnck_window_move(), which is available as wnck_window_set_geometry()... I'll assume this function was not available when the patch got created. Let's kill the patch, but we need to check if another package depends on the new API. + libwnck-border_width-fix-2.patch The patch is simply wrong. It tries to add the border width to the window in some ways. Except that we're already handling them in another way. Or I'm missing something... Technically, it might help improve situation a bit for WMs that do not respect the EWMH, but libwnck is not supposed to work really well with those WM... Original bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=178222 + libwnck-opacity-2.patch This adds some new API to set the opacity and add a menu item in the window menu (which is used in the window list and in the compiz decorator) to set the opacity. First part might go upstream once the hint to set opacity is standardized and second part will not go upstream, and I must say I think it's wrong to add this item. I propose to simply remove the patch. But we might need to check if another package uses the new API. Any hint on how to do so? + libwnck-realistic-layout.patch Has been fixed upstream for quite some time now. So, how to continue from here? :-) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] G:C Package Inclusions
by Magnus Boman 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Hello list! I'm sending this email on behalf of Andrew Wafaa (FunkyPenguin) ------------------- This is more for the Curate of Geeko Garden Gaurdians, but a discussion wouldn't hurt :) I would like to request Conduit be built in G:C more for backports (<=10.3) than anything else but new features always welcome. I would have liked to request Cheese too but there are too many dependencies for backports, as it happens 10.3 has a newer version to Factory ;). Are there any other applications people would like to see other than what is on the wishlist[0]? Would BillReminder[1] be worth nominating even though it needs python-gtk >=2.12.0? I would be keen to know of any a11y apps that openSUSE is missing. Thanks for your patience with my drivel, Andy [0]http://en.opensuse.org/Wishlist_Gnome [1]https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=billreminder&project=home… -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] GtkFileChooser bug week - march 03 to march 07
by Federico Mena Quintero 01 Mar '08

01 Mar '08

Hello, Next week we'll hold a GtkFileChooser bug week in the #opensuse-gnome irc channel in irc.freenode.net: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/GtkFileChooser_bug_week The idea is to fix as many bugs as possible in the file chooser (the "file open" and "file save" dialog), review old patches which haven't been merged, and generally leave the file chooser in a much better state than it is now. WE NEED HACKERS! I will guide you through the code so that you can fix bugs easily. WE NEED TESTERS! To ensure that the hackers don't mess up :) Be there or be square!
