Re: [debian] My ILLUME window is empty

2009-05-19 Thread Albin Tonnerre
 Why does it want to remove zhone? Presumably there is some conflict
 with the python-* packages. What are you using instead of zhone?

Nothing, I don't own any kind of smartphone. I'm currently updating the python
packages so that they work correctly with newer versions, it should be ready
soon.

Re: [debian] My ILLUME window is empty

2009-05-16 Thread Stefan Monnier
 I kept wondering what the ILLUME window was for (at startup, using
 e17, I get two windows: ILLUME and zhone).  Recently I saw that it's
 probably meant to be some kind of application launcher.
 
 What could I have done wrong which would cause this window to be empty:
 no icon whatsoever, although I do have applications installed
 (TangoGPS, MokoMaze, Emacs, ...) and /usr/share/applications does
 contain the necessary info (and I indeed see most of those applications
 in the launcher menu which I've added to the shelf).
 

 Looks like a bug in efreet I've fixed some time ago. What version of
 efreet do you have installed ?

The latest from the fso-pkg repository, AFAIK:

# dpkg -l '*efreet*'|grep '^i'
ii  libefreet-0.5.0.050a 0.5.0.050+svn20090203-1~fr.1
Library that implements freedesktop.org specs for use with E17/EFL

 I don't know what's stopping this from getting fixed, but it's been a
 known issue for a long time.
 
 Basically, the files in /usr/share/applications need to be in either
 category Application or Applications (can't remember which offhand) and
 they tend to not be in the right one by default.
 
 Also you need the illume.desktop menu file installed in the etc xdg
 menus dir.

I didn’t look the details, but keep in mind that the e17 package and
most application packages in Debian are used unmodified on the Desktop,
so can’t contian changes that only make sense on the FreeRunner and
cause problems otherwise.

If, with that in mind, you know a clean way to fix this you are welcome
to talk to the people in charge. Illume is part of e17, so
pkg-e-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org is the right place to talk about
that.

It might be an option to patch Illume on Debian to behave a bit
different with regard to application categories, e.g. drop the
requirement for the Application category, but all with Terminal=True or
similar.

Any help is appreciated.

Greetings,
Joachim

I'm building e17 from source, but AIUI this has also been a problem for
SHR and others. Maybe it's been fixed there, you're right that I'm
talking a little off the cuff here having not looked at the problem
seriously for a while. It's on my list of things to check out. I'm a DM
working toward DD so I'm definitely interested in helping get the Debian
setup working smoothly.
