- Release notes for xdg-utils 1.0
- ===============================
-
- xdg-utils 1.0 has been tested under the Gnome and KDE desktop environments
- on Debian, Fedora, Kubuntu, Mandriva, Redhat RHEL4, SUSE, Ubuntu and Xandros
- based Linux systems. These release notes reflect test findings. Despite
- extensive testing it should be pointed out that xdg-utils is provided AS IS
- without warranty of any kind. See the LICENSE file for details.
-
- * general:
- - When installing applications or file types for the current user only
- (user mode) it may be necessary to restart the session in order for
- the panel and filemanager to show the correct icons. This problem
- typically occurs when the installation process required new
- (hidden) directories to be created under the user's home directory.
-
- * xdg-mime:
- - xdg-mime query filetype may fail under Gnome on certain Debian
- systems that do not have gnomevfs-info installed by default.
-
- * xdg-desktop-menu:
- - On Redhat RHEL 4 systems running Gnome, new submenus will not appear
- until the session is restarted. For testing purposes the command
- "killall gnome-panel" can be used instead of restarting the session.
- It is not recommended to use this as part of installation scripts
- though.
-
- - KDE based desktops may require several seconds to update the
- application menu after installing new items. The user may need to
- close the applications menu first before new items will show up.
-
- - On SUSE systems, desktop entries that list any of the standard
- menu Categories are often being placed in a "More Programs" submenu
- which makes them somewhat hard to find.
-
- * xdg-screensaver:
- - Screensaver locking does not work on KDE under SUSE 10.0
-
- * xdg-email:
- - Please refer to http://portland.freedesktop.org/wiki/EmailConfig
- for additional information on setting up the default E-mail client.
-
- - With current versions of Mozilla Thunderbird it is not possible to
- specify attachments. In order to send an attachment, the user will
- need to attach the file manually.
-
- - Older versions of KMail do not support multiple To or CC recipients.
