I feel like your two points conflict ☺ If looking for a file on the filesystem won't work, then I can't ask click for the information as if it knew there was a scope there it'd be writing a file to the filesystem. That's basically what the scope click hook does. (symbolic link, but whatevs)
Worst case if I had to spin up a full connection that wouldn't be the end of the world, in these use cases we're talking about long running processes that could keep the connection open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1465675 Title: API needed to determine if App ID is a scope To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-scopes-api/+bug/1465675/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
