It was impossible to launch tracker-search-tool because of a
zero-length argv in the exec call ;). Also, if one tried to exec that
python thing directly it would stop, do nothing, maybe show an
X-cursor because of the missing shebang. This is the fixes.patch
The other one, well, does anybody ever wanted something like that? It
polls trackerd with GetStatus and shows a popup (a _shabby_ one!) if
it changed. This is pretty messy and ugly beginner py+gtk code.
I prefer the status applet with notifications ;).
An open issue is the icon. There needs to e some makefile magic or so
to let the applet know where tracker is installed (and hence has it's
icons) - I don't really know where to start with all that
autogen/conf/... stuff.
Cheers, Marcus
PS: the applet should know about the new _1337_ icon!!1
