not really the same arguments are used by gnome in its gconf based thumbnailers so its already a de facto standard.

Coud you possibly change tracker to use the same > directory as thunar? thats my point - the only thing not standardised is the location of the scripts and thats why a freedesktop specified location would be preferred by tracker. In the short term, I can of course check for gnome thumbs using GConfTool (which does not require linking in GConf) and as you say the thunar directory if it exists so patches welcome for that. feel free to add a bugzilla enhancement request (http://bugzilla.gnome.org) to tracker and I will get round to it eventually if no patch is forthcoming -- Mr Jamie McCracken http://jamiemcc.livejournal.com/ _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
