Bugs Fixed
==========

NOTES:
======

  The fix for the exit() in Evolution when enabling/disabling the
  plugin is not completely fixed. If you start with the plugin
  disabled and enable it, it still happens (but not the other way
  round). This part needs fixing in Evolution. See bug:

    https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606940

  The Deskbar applet packaged with Tracker is currently out of date
  and needs some love to get it working with the new APIs. It is in
  the same state as it was for 0.6. As such it isn't expected to work.
