Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 251442
a number of problems with atomix
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:12:12 EST
Description of problem: Here is a list of problems with atomix: 1. In atomix package description in the sentence "This game is inspiried by the orignal Amiga game Atomix and uses the GNOME librarys." There are three misspelled words: inspiried -> inspired orignal -> original librarys -> libraries 2. Help/About dialog in atomix links to http://www.gnome.org/projects/atomix page which does not exist. 3. Clicking the "Close" button in Help/About dialog does nothing. It is supposed to close the dialog. 4. The menu item tooltip is not GNOME HIG compliant. According to GNOME HIG the tooltip should be phrased as a verb. Currently it is not phrased as a verb ("Molecule puzzle game"). "Build molecules out of atoms lying around" sounds better. The relevant file is /usr/share/applications/fedora-atomix.desktop Relevant GNOME HIG part is at http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/desktop-integration.html#menu-item-tooltips Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): atomix-2.14.0-2.fc6
Thanks for your report. I fixed problem 1 (misspellings) in devel; I'll fix it also in other branches if there are enough reasons for a rebuild there. It would be nice to fix problems 2-4 as well, but the better place to do that is IMHO upstream, to get them fixed once and for all for all distributions. I can forward your bugs to bugzilla.gnome.org if you like -- but your experiences at least in area 4 seem to be better then mine, so I'd prefer if you could report it upstream yourself.
(In reply to comment #0) > 2. Help/About dialog in atomix links to http://www.gnome.org/projects/atomix > page which does not exist. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381360 Old bug for this isse -- seem upstream is dead, thus we it likely doesn't make much sense to file more bugs. I subscribed to the bug nevertheless -- should upstream ever spring to live again I'll forward the problems from here. But it likely doesn't make much sense to open bugs for the oher issues now. Closing this one.
