Description Ashwin 2008-10-30 17:51:43 UTC
Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):1.0.2-4.fc9


How reproducible:
Installing the Avant Window Navigator (avant-window-navigator) and then trying to run the manager by typing awn-manager at the terminal

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Avant Window Manager (http://awn-project.org/) by yum install avant-window-manager
2.Try to run the manager toll for the software - awn-manager
  
Actual results:
Fails silently if accessed using the menu. In the terminal, the following output is generated

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/awn-manager", line 46, in <module>
    from awnApplet import awnApplet
  File "/usr/share/avant-window-navigator/awn-manager/awnApplet.py", line 38, in <module>
    from xdg.DesktopEntry import DesktopEntry
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xdg/DesktopEntry.py", line 184
    self.errors.append("Group may either have OnlyShowIn or NotShowIn, but not both")
       ^
IndentationError: expected an indented block



Expected results:
Should open up the manager console

I myself tried to open the file /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/xdg/DesktopEntry.py and added an indent at line number 184 and it worked.

I installed the updated package from
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=68135

and the awn-manager is working (still!).

This was my first firsthand experience of submitting a bug to the community and it resolves... zap!

Fabulous. Great going guys.
