Hi Jonathan, this sounds like a bug in gnome-shell bug rather than a clementine bug. I cannot reproduce this since I don't use Gnome, and things work fine in KDE. Reassigning to gnome-shell. You are probably right. This worked fine in gnome 3.0. I figured either some standard changed in gnome 3.2 that clementine was not updated to, or there is a bug in gnome-shell. Changing the default movie player also failed which suggest a bug in gnome-shell. However, I would have expected clementine player to be visible in the relevant lists like the other software which it is not. This, to my limited understanding suggests something might be incorrect in /usr/share/applications/clementine.desktop for gnome 3.2 but I don't know the details about how this works. Hi, I got the same problem with Clementine but I could solve it and make Clementine my standard audio player. edit /usr/share/applications/clementine.desktop add %U to the command so it looks like 'Exec=clementine %U' After you changed it log in and out and with 'right-click > properties > open with > show other applications ' you can make it the default player. That is how I solved it too, but given the interest from Clementine's side, I let that rest. Did you folks reported this to gnome-shell or clementine developers? I believe this is the only place I reported it to. Given your fast response to the initial report, I thought you were representing the clementine dev's. Hi Jonathan, no I am just packaging it. While there are exceptions, most packagers are not developing the software they are packaging. In the majority of the circumstances, it is best to talk to the developers directly. I, as a packager, forward the bugs to them if I can reproduce them, which is not the case here. If you can provide me a link to the upstream's response, I would gladly apply a patch to the RPM package. Got you. I'll forward this upstream. Thank you taking the time to educate me. This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
