[opensuse-kde] synaptiks 0.5
Synaptiks was recently updated to 0.5 (now 0.5.2): http://synaptiks.lunaryorn.de/ However, this version is a rewrite in python. Should the openSUSE KDE version be updated as well? -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

-Todd Hi Todd,
I have been looking at this version and packaged it already. However the 0.5.2 release has some regressions as that my touchpad is no longer recognized. As that this is a rewrite of synaptiks, the decision was taken not to update the package in KDF.

I'm very much against having always-on default-install applets in scripting languages - a quick look at the Python printer-applet in system monitor shows it squatting on a breathtaking 33MB. Not so much because RAM is scarce, but because they take a long time to start up on login. Has anyone looked at the synaptiks rewrite to see if it is all python, or if the always-on parts are in something lightweight?

According to the changelog it is not always on by default. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

Should it be included in Extra, then? -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
