Sorry we took so long to review your patch. I'm afraid I'm not prepared to switch to sudo; that has other consequences (if you're running ubiquity in an environment where it needs a password to gain root, and you try to launch it from the desktop icon, it would fail rather than prompting for a password) and in any case that seems like it's just papering over a problem somewhere else (e.g. failure to drop privileges in the right place, or a missing environment variable, or similar). I'd want a very clear analysis of exactly what's failing before making a change in this area. Is gksudo still troublesome for you in 11.10 or in daily builds of 12.04?
The win_size_req method was eliminated in ubiquity 2.3.4 as part of the redesign process that happened in maverick, so that part of the patch no longer applies, and I know there's been work done on accessibility since then; in fact, I'm sure I heard reports of orca working reliably in 11.10. It'd be good to know the current state and what if anything remains from this bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550717 Title: [Lucid] two accessiblity related bug with Ubiquity, with easy to fix To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/550717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
