[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1617675] [NEW] Evolution will not connect to Gmail
Public bug reported: You're going to say this is not a bug. You may call it a feature request or any of many other not-a-bug issues. However, Evolution is locked into Gnome and many of the features and abilities of Gnome. I can use Thunderbird with no problem, but I can only use Evolution calendar in Gnome. (Is Gnome trying to be Microsoft?) Anyway, we all know the issue. Evolution is buggy at best. Evolution will not connect to Gmail or Google Apps. It won't let me access my Google Calendar if I cannot access my email. This could be separated as well, but it's not at this time. Google uses OAuth, and you have to live under a rock to know it. I have gone through all the steps to allow an insecure application to access Gmail, but Evolution spontaneously decides I'm offline because it does not receive the proper response from Google Mail servers. Please fix it, or at least untie Evolution from Gnome. By the way, fixing it in a later version is not a fix. If you are using an unfixed version and the fixed version is not available for the version of Ubuntu one is using, it's not fixed. Getting off my soapbox.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 133133]
Since I am not a programmer, I cannot submit a patch. However, can't someone simply replace whatever is opening Nautilus with xdg-open? You don't even have to know how it works or where the files are. Just to be clear though, anything involving xdg uses XDG standards. If one is curious, or simply wants or needs to know the standard, check out multiple publications at freedesktop.org. I understand that Mozilla has abandoned Qt, but that does not mean that Linux distributions of Mozilla software should be Gnome specific. The point of the XDG standard is that anything following it should work for any desktop environment that follows it. Both Gnome and KDE follow those standards. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133133 Title: Open containing folder is only working if nautilus is present Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser: Confirmed Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: firefox Tools-Downloads- (Right click)-Open containing folder Result: Nothing happens (not even an error).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 697412] Re: Emacs won't start, complaining about font ending in a number
Font handling for Emacs is still not fixed. This specific font may have been resolved, but there are many fonts out there that Emacs simply doesn't recognize. Is the bug present in Emacs 24? If not, why is the default version still 23? Is this just the fact that font management has changed so much in Linux since Emacs was first written. For example, fonts.config in the home directory is now deprecated even though we have personal and system fonts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to emacs23 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/697412 Title: Emacs won't start, complaining about font ending in a number Status in GNU Emacs: Fix Released Status in Ubuntu Font Family: Invalid Status in “emacs23” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: emacs23 I've installed the Ubuntu Beta Mono 17 font from https://launchpad.net/~canonical-ux/+archive/walled-garden (currently a private PPA). If you set your default system fixed width font to this (via Preferences - Appearance - Fonts) and set the font size to 11, then start emacs from the command line, you get the following early error message on the console and Emacs does not start: Font `Ubuntu Beta Mono 17 11' is not defined Now starting emacs with emacs --font monospace will get the first frame up, but then C-x 5 2 fails with the same error message in the minibuffer. The font size doesn't matter, since if you use the default 12 point font, the '11' is replaced by '12' in the error message above. Note that you can still use the font if you reset your system font to monospace and then set Ubuntu Beta Mono 17 in your .emacs or via customize on the default face. After confirmation by colleagues, we think it's a font parsing bug in Emacs. Using a system font of 'courier 10 pitch' does not cause the problem, nor does using a font with a number at the end but with no space between it and the preceding word. It appears as though ending the font name in [space][number] causes the problem.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1161105] Re: freeglut3-dev has unmet dependencies in raring
Is this related to mesa and not being able to get the Gnome 3D desktop to load in 13.04 Raring? I ask because one recommendation was to install freeglut3-dev.

I believe the system stored that as a server upgrade, so that a desktop upgrade would no longer work. Maybe there is a bug in do-release-upgrade or the upgrade process or I just created too many issues. I consider it to be a bug if a system upgrade doesn't work.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1084364] Re: Network-Manager Repeatedly Asks for Authorization (WPA2 Password)
This is a well-known bug. If you search for it on the Internet, it shows up everywhere. The actual behavior varies according to what desktop one has installed. For instance, KDE uses Kwallet instead of gnome-keyring. The KDE daemon wipes the password field so that it must be reentered, but the behavior is otherwise identical. I believe that network-manager back-ends make incorrect system calls when it cannot immediately connect with the current password. It does not know whether the password is missing or incorrect, if the connection is unavailable, if the connection was stopped due to a suspend, lock, or shutdown, or if the connection was temporarily lost. Frequently suggested work-arounds include deleting the connection, rebooting the computer, or deleting the connection and rebooting the computer. These are stopgap measures and hacks at best. It is also suggested that this is a driver issue, but for many the system is using the best or only network driver available. The obvious alternative is Wicd, but it has yet been updated to the long awaited version 2.0.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 119899]
This behavior is still present in the most current versions (note message date) of Thunderbird on Ubuntu and SeaMonkey on Windows 7. It does appear to be an issue when applying after the fact to IMAP and POP mail. Someone commented about a search function for AOL. Every webmail account I have, including AOL, has a search function. Many of these *custom* headers are standard headers. The best workaround, in my opinion, is to simply add common headers to future builds. This can also be an issue because occasionally the mail filters cannot find the folder the message is to be moved (another bug?). In my mind, X should imply custom headers since that is the recommended standard. All other common headers should be considered standard. A suggest list, including those already listed, should contain Authentication-Results, BCC, CC, Content-Type, Content-Transfer- Encoding, Date, Delivered-To, DKIM-Signature, DomainKey-Signature, From, List-Id, List-Subscribe, List-Unsubscribe, Mailing-List, Message-ID, MIME-Version, Precedence, Received, References, Reply-To, Return-Path, Sender, Subject, To. I'm sure this is not a comprehensive list. Also, some of these may be meaningless and some starting with X might be added. However, the person working on this bug will make the final decision when editing the code. Please offer further suggestions so that we may come to an agreement. I don't think this work around will add bulk or slow down mail. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/119899 Title: After-the-fact Filters on custom header won't match for IMAP messages Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird Message filtering appears to be broken on Thunderbird 2.0.0.4~rc1-0ubuntu1 in Gutsy with IMAP.
