Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: prism
Apparently, the way prism works changed significantly between the jaunty
and karmic versions, and the launchers that i had made just stopped
working. There was no warning about this, no error message, nothing. I
clicked my old launcher, nothing happened.
The old launchers had an exec line like this:
xulrunner-1.9 /usr/share/prism/application.ini -webapp my.m...@prism.app
While the new one looks like this:
"prism" -override "/home/bgruber/.webapps/my.m...@prism.app/override.ini"
-webapp my.m...@prism.app
A separate bug I guess, but "prism --help" doesn't even report -override
or -webapp as a possible options. Nor does the prism man page for that
matter.
Looking more closely, it seems as if the config data has moved from
.prism to .webapp. I would expect there to be, at the very least, a
notation in the changelog, maybe a warning that my old prism apps would
cease to work properly. At best, there should be something to help me
update them.
