Hi David. Probably I am wrong but I think it's rather panel issue. It just doesn't query applet list on every open of add window. It does query only on start. It's easy to check - just put breakpoint in panel_addto_query_applets and see when it does new query. So neither gconf, nor b-a-s is responsible. Also there a lot of plans to make applets more run-time installable, probably even from application. There is even google bounty for that. So you can hope this problem will be fixed soon. _______________________________________________ gnome-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-devel-list
