I hope the developers won't slap me, but out of curiosity I tried fetching the
source with
apt-get source myunity
cd /myunity-3.1.3
and replaced the code in #5 above with:
IF Uversion <> "11.04" AND Uversion <> "11.10" AND Uversion <> "12.04" THEN
IF Uversion = "12.10" THEN
FMessage.SimpleMessage("Ubuntu " & Uversion & "\n" & ("Horrible kluge,
faking as 12.04"), "MyLogo_small.png", "dialog-error.png", "Close")
Uversion = "12.04"
ELSE
FMessage.SimpleMessage("Ubuntu " & Uversion & "\n" & ("Sorry, Ubuntu
release not supported."), "MyLogo_small.png", "dialog-error.png", "Close")
QUIT
ENDIF
ENDIF
I then followed the instructions in INSTALL.rst (use sudo for the long
apt-get install line) up to and including 'make'.
./myunity
As far as I can tell, things still work ok at present, e.g. I changed
the launcher width, its transparency, etc.
At such an early stage (Alpha1) I guess this isn't surprising, but I
would expect later changes will break this hack, i.e. this cobbled
MyUnity will no longer be compatible with changes in the desktop config
files. Usual disclaimers, you get to keep both halves, I offer a full
refund of what you paid me, yada yada.
Kudos to the MyUnity authors, I've never used Gambas, but that
INSTALL.rst file told me all that's needed.
