Comment 2 zhihengz 2010-11-10 23:21:28 UTC
There are 2 major problem with current spec and patches:

1. %configure --disable-scrollkeeper

shall change to

%configure --disable-scrollkeeper --enable-panel-applet=yes

since from now on, tomboy did not provide gnome applet by default.

2. gdk_display is deprecated, so a patch is required:

Another patch, it was in the src.rpm before, the patch in patch is still in tomboy-1.3.1, so I updated it

If cannot wait, you can try my updated rpm from http://sparc5.homeip.net/tomboy-1.3.2-1.1.fc14.i386.rpm

Comment 7 ricardo.gladwell 2011-01-18 16:37:45 UTC
Any update when this fix will hit the Fedora repositories?

Comment 8 David Prieto 2011-04-27 08:19:56 UTC
I'm also getting this bug in Fedora 15.

Comment 9 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2011-06-01 17:14:37 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 10 Thomas Moschny 2011-06-01 17:42:32 UTC
I think I'll update tomboy to 1.6.0.

The patch on tomboykeybinder.c is already upstream.

About the applet: Enabling it would only make sense for F14, as F15 has Gnome3. As the .desktop file will be included in the update, that's one entry point, so is the applet still needed? Comments welcome.

Comment 11 ricardo.gladwell 2011-06-02 09:14:27 UTC
It depends on how F15 supports Gnome classic: can users revert to the old Gnome desktop in which case the applet may still be required.

I'm also not familiar with how Gnome 3 supports Tomboy: does Gnome 3 still support applets?

The classic mode doesn't support applets, and Gnome simply 2.X isn't present in F15. So, enabling applet support for F15 does not work.

It works fine: When you move the mouse to the bottom right of the screen, you will see the tomboy icon.

Comment 16 Mike McLean 2011-06-07 13:45:46 UTC
confirmed on F14. There is a menu entry (under accessories) and the applet does appear on the "add to panel" menu (though I did have to restart gnome-panel first).
