Re: Bug#500119: [Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#500119: Better way to avoid both knetworkmanager and nm-applet are started in parallel

Cc'ed this to debian-boot and debian-release.

Dear RMs,

This is only one line change in nm-applet.desktop which benefit other
Window Managers and Desktops user. Please accept this change into Lenny.

Has somebody verified that the change ensures it doesn't get started in
KDE, just as with OnlyShownIn=GNOME? Or do you have first-hand knowledge
of that? In any of those case, I'm ok with that one change.



nm-applet.desktop is installed according to the fd.o autostart spec (into /etc/xdg/autostart).

KDE3 does *not* support this spec (KDE4 does though), so it is impossible that nm-applet is autostarted in KDE. It might be autostarted in KDE4 though (I'd have to verify that, I don't know if KDE4 uses the same session identifier as KDE3 does). But as we don't ship KDE4 as desktop in lenny (only the libs), we are safe on this side.

Matter of fact, we could even go as far and remove the
OnlyShownIn=GNOME
line altogether for lenny.


Cheers,
Michael
