It appears the webapp support in unity in Maverick is broken in various ways. Here is a list of the problems I have identified so far, along with one big patch that fixes them (I can split the patch in atomic chunks if desired):
• After the icon for a webapp is fetched, it is not updated in the launcher • Webapps are not kept at the bottom of the launcher (next restart they are at the top) • No visual notification that a webapp has been added (this is an optional feature rather than a bug in itself, it can be ignored) • Webapps are not correctly stored in and removed from GConf • The hostname extraction is broken for https:// sites • The favicon extraction is broken in a number of cases • The name of a webapp replaces "special" characters with dashes (mentioned in the bug description) Let me know how I can help in getting those fixes in for Natty (if webapps are to be supported). ** Patch added: "09_webapps_fixes.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/660157/+attachment/1761749/+files/09_webapps_fixes.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/660157 Title: Unity -b command doesn't build a workable application -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
