Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: unity
Hi,
Today I updated my netbook to Ubuntu v10.10 and I noticed that it broke the
usability of the application I develop: qBittorrent.
As far I as understood, the main window menu (application menu) is now supposed
to be shown in the system tray (so-called global menu on Unity). However, the
qBittorrent application menu does not appear there (the global menu is left
empty) and it is shown when clicking on the systray icon instead. This is
obviously not ideal. The worse is that qBittorrent has a specific menu for its
systray icon which is no longer accessible.
I believe that this is a bug in Unity because existing applications
should not have to be updated to work with Unity. However, if you think
it is caused by an issue in my code, please point me in the right
direction and I'll update qBittorrent. qBittorrent is based on Qt4.
Thank you in advance.
