RFC: GNOME 2.24 Showstopper Review



Hej kids!

Proposal. If no feedback within the next 48hrs I am going to send this
to desktop-devel-list. If I've missed something, please tell me. :-)


-----cut here-----


GNOME 2.24.0 release is on September 22 (see [1]), and we still have
enough
2.24 blocker bugs (and other bugs of course) to fix for everybody!
Take a look, test & help out, clean up our platform, make 2.24 better!

-andre


================================================
EPIPHANY-EXTENSIONS
================================================
The favicon Python extension still imports and uses GnomeVFS
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516844
chpe set the target milestone here, and I assume he is going to work on
this to remove epiphany's gnome-vfs dependency for 2.24...

================================================
EVOLUTION
================================================
Error "Summary and folder mismatch" / Message list mismatch
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213072
Was already fixed several times, but still happens in Evolution 2.23
which was ported to use sqlite. Srini is working on this and will
hopefully fix this for 2.24.

================================================
GNOME-APPLET
================================================
crash in Keyboard Indicator (gtk_widget_set_tooltip_text)
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=523583
Comment 40 and 68 have useful traces. There has been much activity to
fix this though the bug has been existing since 2.18.

================================================
GNOME-PANEL
================================================
crash in gtk_rc_reset_styles()
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446183
986 duplicates and still happening in 2.22, related to theme problems.
Any investigations and more comments appreciated!

================================================
GNOME-SETTINGS-DAEMON
================================================
Exit due to unhandled X error when updating resolution
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=537592
svu has problems reproducing this, more input and help tracking this
down very appreciated, as we expect lots of users running into this.

================================================
GVFS
================================================
nautilus does not display samba shares for machines inside an ADS
network
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524485
This is a regression from 2.20.x. A patch is available and one commenter
has stated that the patch fixed the issue for him.

Unable to browse smb shares
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=547597
This has come up lately and so far there has been no activity to fix
this.

================================================
VINO
================================================
program won't restart even set X-GNOME-AutoRestart=true
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546747
This has a patch attached and Jonh is going to fix this for 2.24.
