This should have been the case already for Fedora 22 as well.  Did it work

 Did you try with gtk 3.10.1 ? We've fixed the 'generic fallback' to drop
 -symbolic after exhausting other possibilities. E.g. for
 drive-harddisk-usb-symbolic we're now looking for
 
 drive-harddisk-usb-symbolic
 drive-harddisk-symbolic
 drive-symbolic
 drive-harddisk-usb
 drive-harddisk
 drive
 
 in that order.

See if it's reproducible in players other than mplayer.  If not, mplayer is

Re: Proposal: Too similar application names

2011-06-02 Thread Rex Dieter
On 06/02/2011 08:54 AM, Vitezslav Humpa wrote:
 Hey folks,

 At last Fedora QA meeting John Dulaney had a proposal concerning the issue of 
 similar application names we use around Fedora desktops.

 For example: surely sometimes you had both GNOME and XFCE installed and went 
 for menus to open - say a terminal. The environment would use the same icon 
 and a same name for both gnome-terminal and xfce-terminal, which resulted in 
 you opening the other app than desired, perhaps (thanks to Murphy's laws :) ) 
 more often than the desired one. More examples of this are Software 
 updates/Software update(just within GNOME), System Monitor for both 
 gnome-system-monitor and ksysguard, some system-config-* utilities vs. 
 GNOME control panel applets and more.

 This is a call for having a discussion on trying to establish some compromise 
 - on what to put as a name in the desktop[1] file for corresponding 
 applications around different Fedora desktops as well as among applications 
 inside each of those. The goal is simply to avoid people being unable to 
 recognize specific applications around the desktop menus etc., which we could 
 reach simply by rethinking the name fields in the *.desktop files of such 
 applications.

 The way KDE application launcher handles this also provides nice example for 
 a design solution to this problem. They use a Generic (e.g. Terminal) field 
 to describe the application primarily and have the name of the actual binary 
 (e.g. Konsole) present in small letters when the generic name is not unique. 
 For gnome-shell, in it's current in-high-development state, proposing a 
 design like this may also be good idea. Other than that - at least handling 
 this by making a renaming compromise among the desktop environments would be 
 very nice.

 We were thinking on expanding the release criteria to have one to deal with 
 this issue, but for sure we need to discuss this first.

 Thus - thoughts? :) (Might be a good idea in having the conversation joined 
 in one list we are all subscribed - perhaps test or desktop?)

The desktop-entry-spec does specify Name= and GenericName= to help 
distinguish matters,
http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-1.0.html#recognized-keys

It's just that for various reasons, some desktops have chosen not to 
use/implement Name=  in menus.  I've tried to advocate supporting the 
spec for quite awhile...

Re: xdg-open with gnome shell

 For me

 xdg is looking for gnome-default-applications-properties binary, which is
 missing in gnome-shell and it fallbacks to KDE apps. Therefore I have
 many KDE apps autostarted in gnome instead (e.g. dolphin instead
 nautilus for the Picture case).
 
 I did not found a bug about it, so it looks like this is working for
 everybody, but me?

See,
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=654746

and followup upstream commit,
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-
utils/commit/?id=94da2bc195a43c1fc957679ecbcac3ea9ed3189c

Erm, looks like I never released an update with that second piece. :(

Can you verify if making that adjustment makes it work for you?

 Download a daily Live image (.iso) from

 If I go to http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/
 the only relevant clickable links seems the Task info in the Links

 Which is pretty useless to someone just looking for an iso ...

By following the Task info link, you'd see the iso you were looking for, 
as well as associated kickstart files and build logs, etc...

 Also, apache httpd will not start as I've also included mod_mono and it

 Strange as /var/run/mod_fcgid is not deleted.

drkonqi (kde crash-handler) script expects debuginfo-install to be present, 
but we currently don't have a dependency on it.

Looks like we'll need to make the script more robust or add the dep.

kdepim-4.4.x for f15

2011-02-11 Thread Rex Dieter
Per our team meeting this week and after consulting upstream, the kde-sig 
decided kdepim-4.6 isn't ready yet and and to roll back to kdepim-4.4.x for 
fedora 15 (and ideally squeeze this in for the upcoming alpha release).
