Hi,
We discussed this on IRC, and here's a mail to try to summarize the change in the default configuration of pidgin people might want. Please comment since I'm not a pidgin user, so I can't really know what's good or not.
+ always visible in the notification area + never open new windows unexpectedly + no sound by default + enable log (for im & chat?)
Maybe preconfigured Zeroconf IM. For small companies it can be a nice solution.
Good idea. Unfortunately, I'm not sure to do it right since the first time you launch pidgin, you get the account window with a special text (since there's no account). If you add the zeroconf/bonjour account by default, you won't see this text, so there's no need to show the dialog. And in the end, it might be less user-friendly for a first-time experience. But if we think it's worth it, we can do it. Opinions?
Are there some other changes we want?
Also, from a packaging point of view: looking at the code, it seems we can have initial values at /etc/purple/prefs.xml. This file will be read when the user has no preferences (so only the first time pidgin is run, I guess). That's not as powerful as gconf, but I don't think we want to patch pidgin to use gconf. So we'll ship such a file in pidgin-branding-openSUSE. But I guess this means we need an empty pidgin-branding-upstream?
Quick & dirty package: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=pidgin-branding-openSUSE&project=home%3Avuntz%3Afactory-playground
Actually, it's not dirty ;-) Just need an opinion about what to do for pidgin-branding-upstream. Stanislav?
Nothing. We could just make branding package optional, not adding Requires to pidgin package, only Supplements packageand(...) to the branding package.
Oh cool. This means the package I did is fine, I guess? I'll upload it now. Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
