I noticed this yesterday, too.

Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2008-12-05 19:53:09 UTC
This seems to be from my split of the "changed" signal into two signals.  eel isn't listening for the new signal.

Comment 3 Mario Bruckschwaiger 2008-12-07 16:30:31 UTC
Just for your information (but I am pretty sure you are aware of this): This behavior is the same after upgrading gnome-desktop to 2.24.2-1.fc10.x86_64 (and still using eel2-2.24.1-3.fc10.x86_64, the same as before).

Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2008-12-08 16:28:45 UTC
i should have a patch that fixes this issue shortly.
