gnome-vfs2 / GConf2 / dbus

I'm not sure if that's still the case in joyride. I looked at the OLPC-2 gnome-vfs2 spec file and I don't see what you mean here. The only obvious difference is that we changed the GConf requires to GConf2-dbus. Did you mean GConf here? I guess GConf2-dbus provides an equivalent interface to the GConf2 package and hence is a drop-in replacement. Do we want do to the same for 8.2? ORBit2 is shipped in update1 and 8.2 as well. Switching to GConf2-dbus won't cause it to go away since it is needed by gnome-python2-gnomevfs. Thanks, Daniel ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Oh ok, that make sense and I guess it's the case here... So do we want to use GConf2-dbus like we did for update1, or are we ok to stick with plain old GConf2 in 8.2? ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

The reason people didn't want plain GConf in the build was the ORBit dependency. Now I'm not sure if the problem there was disk space, memory or what else. I guess we should measure... Or we can ask Jim, I think he was one of the ORBit haters :) Marco ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

It's bonobo that depends on ORBit, I guess the fear here is that, as bonobo, GConf might use a lot of memory because of ORBit. It should not be hard to measure.

In general, gnome is moving away from Bonobo/Orbit toward dbus based messaging. - Jim On Mon, 2008-07-21 at 20:09 +0200, Marco Pesenti Gritti wrote: On Mon, Jul 21, 2008 at 7:59 PM, Daniel Drake [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, 2008-07-21 at 13:28 -0400, Jim Gettys wrote: The bonobo-activation-server likes to chew up 40mb (of RAM), for doing almost nothing.
