Description vfiend 2006-12-22 21:20:26 UTC
Description of problem: Deskbar only picks up one of my custom Firefox search
plugins, even though I have two custom ones on top of the default search plugins
- not even the default search plugins are shown (yes, I am using Firefox 1.5).
No, "Show only the primary search engine" is not selected.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Deskbar 2.16.0,
Firefox 1.5.0.9


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Drag deskbar to the panel and type some text into it.
  
Actual results: Only one of the eight search plugins is available to use in deskbar.


Expected results: All eight should be available to use.

I just tagged and built deskbar-applet-2_17_2-2_fc6; once that's pushed try and
reproduce this problem.

Also, make sure you select 'Show all available search engines' in the Web 
Searches extension preferences.

Comment 2 vfiend 2006-12-24 09:25:45 UTC
Same problem with the new rpm. And yes, 'show all available search engines' is
selected.

Comment 3 Luke Macken 2007-01-16 19:38:24 UTC
This issue seems to be fixed for me in 2.17.5.1, which I just tagged and built
for FC7.  This version is unstable, so I will not be pushing it to FC6 until a
new stable version is released.

Comment 4 vfiend 2007-06-06 10:52:07 UTC
Same problem with Fedora 7 now - doesn't show the default firefox search plugins
(google etc.) but it shows all but one of the custom ones I've added in my
personal profile. I don't know why because this has worked fine on other distros
when I've used them.

Comment 5 Fedora Update System 2007-06-07 15:57:40 UTC
deskbar-applet-2.19.3-2.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 testing repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 6 vfiend 2007-06-08 03:10:10 UTC
Nope, no improvement

Comment 7 Luke Macken 2007-06-08 17:33:37 UTC
Are you use you're using -2.fc7 instead of -1.fc7?  This works great for me on
two different machines, and for Jeremy Katz as well.

Comment 8 vfiend 2007-06-08 23:33:54 UTC
Oops, I updated from updates testing immediately when I received that last
message and got 2.19.3-1 instead of -2, I just updated again and it's working
perfectly, thanks!

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2007-06-09 19:19:55 UTC
deskbar-applet-2.19.3-2.fc7 has been pushed to the Fedora 7 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
