  No problem!

  I was just thinking about this some more, and I'm not sure if
 I should have added the file.  Since the program requires root
 privileges it would only be useful if root logged in graphically,
 and wouldn't run for "normal" users

Bug#375511: .desktop file

2006-06-27 Thread Vassilis Pandis
You do have a point there about the privileges. It appears to have escaped me. 
Logging in
graphically is not neccessary - one can use gksudo.

I was thinking that two thing can be done:

(a) Add it with gksudo in Gnome's Applications->Internet->Driftnet (i.e. 
leaving the .desktop as
is and adding 'gksudo' in front of exec. This makes sense in terms of 
categorisation, but on the
other hand is not consistent with the rest of the system (I don't expect to 
find programs
requiring sudo under 'Applications')

(b) Add it again with gksudo in Gnome's System->Administration. Here 'Exec' 
needs to be changed
again and Categories should look like "System;Settings;"

I think the best to do is the second approach but it's really your call. I 
don't agree that since
it requires root privileges it should not be usable graphically. Thank you once 
again for being so
responsive :) Have a nice day!

Bug#375511: driftnet has no .desktop

2006-06-26 Thread Vassilis Pandis
Package: driftnet
Version:  0.1.6-4
Severity: wishlist

Hello. driftnet currently lacks a .desktop file. A bug was filed against the 
package in the Ubuntu
bugtracker [1] and you can find a .desktop file attached there. It would be 
nice if this was
included in Debian as well.

Thanks for your time,
