Bug#617313: [Pkg-telepathy-maintainers] Bug#617313: Bug#617313: empathy: Empathy becomes inaccessible without a tray dock
fixed 617313 3.2.0.1-1 thanks On Mon, Sep 19, 2011 at 08:18:34AM +0200, Jan Hauke Rahm wrote: On Tue, Mar 08, 2011 at 01:07:29PM +, Emilio Pozuelo Monfort wrote: On 08/03/11 08:16, Jonny Lamb wrote: On Tue, Mar 08, 01:28:31 +0100, Fredrik Tolf wrote: When running a window manager that does not include a system tray/dock/notification area, the Empathy window becomes inaccessible if closed. It closes the window, assuming the user to be able to reaccess it via the non-existing tray, and also enters that state automatically upon startup, so there's really no way at all of bringing it back other than starting a temporary tray program like stalonetray or trayer. Actually there is. If you try to run empathy again from the command line or from some application menu, it will pop up the main window again due to the single-instance nature of the application. Empathy should also start as visible as it was left on the last execution. Empathy is a GNOME application. GNOME has a system tray area. I'm tempted to wontfix this bug. GNOME Shell doesn't (it does for legacy apps, but it's kind of a workaround), so I guess we may be removing it or making it optional at some point. Now we're there. With current empathy and gnome-shell in experimental, there is no tray icon and thus no way to click-open the buddy list. What's worse, there is in fact no way to open it at all. Neither clicking on some empathy icon, nor starting empathy from gnome-do does anything. I'm not able to access the buddy list. FWIW, this seems fixed now. I'm leaving the bug open for the maintainer to confirm and close it. With empathy 3.2.0.1-1 I don't experience the described problem anymore. It's perfectly working now. Hauke -- .''`.
