Bug#373798: epiphany-browser: Silently loses bookmarks.

The details from the previous sessions I found living in ~/tmp/epiphany-noodles-*/ but starting up dbus (or rather, making sure Epiphany could find the already running copy) didn't make them available. It has solved the problem of bookmarks disappearing over sessions as expected though. J. -- CAFFEINE! | .''`.

Unless he worked with the same copy of ephy for several days. Joss, we should try to show a UI warning, but I know this conflicts with our no new strings policy. We should try to push this upstream.

I think we should add a warning dialog box when epiphany is started this way. I also hope this whole issue can be fixed and epiphany can be run without a dbus daemon again. -- .''`.

A cryptic error on stderr is no use for a GUI app. They shouldn't really be outputting to stderr/out at all. I also hope this whole issue can be fixed and epiphany can be run without a dbus daemon again. That'd be nice. I need to figure out what exactly decided to start dbus in a way that means it wasn't automatically available, but that's not epiphany's fault. :) J. -- /\ |noodles is in all his glory | | http://www.blackcatnetworks.co.uk/ | \/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
