This type of question probably is more appropriate for the users mail list, but look at tdelibs/tdecore/README.kiosk: http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdelibs/tree/tdecore/README.kiosk The purpose of those rules and the kiosk framework is to restrict user access to various components. The reason you can't open the desktop link is one of the restriction rules is preventing that from happening. Figure out which specific rule is doing that. :) Darrell

Name of distribution in the version number of Debian and Ubuntu packages
by Slávek Banko 31 Mar '13

31 Mar '13

Hello, I noticed two problems with the name of distribution and its location in the version number of packages. 1) We can soon expect: Names of distributions are not ascending. After Wheezy will follow Jessie => packages with ~jessie in the name will be considered older than ~wheezy (and also ~squeeze). 2) It is a real problem already now: Before the name of the distribution is in the version of package 'packaging-release' number by tde-packaging. After split folder for new distribution this number is *always lower* than the previous distribution. This now makes it impossible to do dist-upgrade for many distributions. My suggestions are: 1) Use the version number of the distribution instead of the name. 2) Move the distribution version number before other numbers. For example, from: 14.0.0-0debian12+r789+pr42~wheezy Change version to: 14.0.0-0debian12.7.0+r789+pr42 And in the future (to allow switch format from native to quilt): 14.0.0~r789-0debian12.7.0+pr42 Note: I noticed that the same use version number of distribution can be found even in the standard ubuntu packages - such as firefox.

Bugzilla Email Options

Hi. I'd like to ask if there is a specific reason for not allowing one to set 'Reporter' flag beside "I'm added to or removed from this capacity" option? I am trying to achieve behaviour similar of default Debian BTS, which sends confirmation letter for bugs, submitted by me. Regards, Sergey.

Archlinux - systemd will cause challenges for Trinity
by David C. Rankin 18 Mar '13

18 Mar '13

All, I apologize for my absence, but economic challenges demanded my time elsewhere -- and will for the next little while. I wanted to drop a note on Archlinux changes that impact Trinity. Specifically the massive transition in Arch from an 'initscript' startup to 'systemd'. I have moved a test machine to systemd. Trinity (hal) does not start when systemd is used. The problem appears to be a hang on X startup. However, initscript behavior can be retained even after the move to systemd that allows Trinity to continue to run -- flawlessly (3.5.13-SRU). If any other archer has time, please look into booting to tdm on Arch. Any issues with systemd/hal should be noted on the hal AUR page. Thanks. I will investigate as time permits, but I don't foresee much free time for the next several months. Keep fighting the good fight. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
