| Release notes for xdg-utils 1.0 |
| =============================== |
| |
| xdg-utils 1.0 has been tested under the Gnome and KDE desktop environments |
| on Debian, Fedora, Kubuntu, Mandriva, Redhat RHEL4, SUSE, Ubuntu and Xandros |
| based Linux systems. These release notes reflect test findings. Despite |
| extensive testing it should be pointed out that xdg-utils is provided AS IS |
| without warranty of any kind. See the LICENSE file for details. |
| |
| * general: |
| - When installing applications or file types for the current user only |
| (user mode) it may be necessary to restart the session in order for |
| the panel and filemanager to show the correct icons. This problem |
| typically occurs when the installation process required new |
| (hidden) directories to be created under the user's home directory. |
| |
| * xdg-mime: |
| - xdg-mime query filetype may fail under Gnome on certain Debian |
| systems that do not have gnomevfs-info installed by default. |
| |
| * xdg-desktop-menu: |
| - On Redhat RHEL 4 systems running Gnome, new submenus will not appear |
| until the session is restarted. For testing purposes the command |
| "killall gnome-panel" can be used instead of restarting the session. |
| It is not recommended to use this as part of installation scripts |
| though. |
| |
| - KDE based desktops may require several seconds to update the |
| application menu after installing new items. The user may need to |
| close the applications menu first before new items will show up. |
| |
| - On SUSE systems, desktop entries that list any of the standard |
| menu Categories are often being placed in a "More Programs" submenu |
| which makes them somewhat hard to find. |
| |
| * xdg-screensaver: |
| - Screensaver locking does not work on KDE under SUSE 10.0 |
| |
| * xdg-email: |
| - Please refer to http://portland.freedesktop.org/wiki/EmailConfig |
| for additional information on setting up the default E-mail client. |
| |
| - With current versions of Mozilla Thunderbird it is not possible to |
| specify attachments. In order to send an attachment, the user will |
| need to attach the file manually. |
| |
| - Older versions of KMail do not support multiple To or CC recipients. |
