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.
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. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec@suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966, +49 911 740538747 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
