Attachments: Patch for KDE 3.0.2 to make it compatible with FreeDesktop Standards

Description Alejandro Villar 2002-09-19 04:35:38 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.0.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

I think kicker tray should comply with freedesktop starndards to provide a better support for using applications coming from other enviroments, like GTK. Linux is a very heterogeneous community, so it requires a little help to integrate all programs properly.
Comment 1 Stephan Binner 2002-09-19 15:44:40 UTC 
RedHat 8.0 has AFAIK patches for this.
Comment 2 Alejandro Villar 2002-09-21 14:29:20 UTC 
But even if you get the patch, you can do nothing if youre using rpms as i do
Comment 3 Stephan Binner 2002-09-21 15:10:46 UTC 
We are talking about future KDE versions here, right? So this will be likely 
in future rpms once it's in a released KDE version.
Comment 4 Alejandro Villar 2002-09-22 13:45:31 UTC 
That's why I mean, Stephan, they could apply RedHat's patch in next release, 
so that when it got to the packagers everyone could take advantage of this 
feature.

This does apply to HEAD: 
david david% patch --dry-run -p1 < /home/david/docklet.patch 
patching file kicker/applets/systemtray/systemtrayapplet.cpp 
Hunk #1 succeeded at 88 (offset -5 lines).

patching file kicker/applets/systemtray/systemtrayapplet.h

is this a 3.1 or a 3.2 target?
