[request] gnome-main-menu

There's a slab-cvs package in AUR that is really outdated and doesn't seem to work any more. Would it be possible for someone to create a new package for the gnome-main-menu module?

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

gnome-main-menu will be in the next release of gnome.


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I don't think so. It won't be in 2.18:

http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointSeventeen/ReleaseNotes
http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArchitecture/Progress

There will be the new Control Center but disabled by default.

I made a quick PKGBUILD. remember to build this with versionpkg. Also it needs gnome-common >= 2.12.0-7, which is currently in testing (enable testing or grab it from the ftp-server). enjoy !

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

np

basically you have 2 options. The first one is to disable testing again in /etc/pacman.conf and downgrade the packages which are installed from the testing tree (using a pacman -Syu you will be notified which these are, and then use pacman -Sy packagename to downgrade). If you use the binary version I posted above, you do not need any testing package.

If you would like to stay with the testing repo, be sure that things may break more often in there wink, like just happened with alacarte for you. What you need to do is rebuild alacarte against the new packages you just installed. You can use abs to get the PKGBUILD for it (see the wiki for details on abs)

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

Hey guys. Is anyone else having problems with gnome-main-menu (trunk, as well as version-2), and gnome 2.18? I don't seem to be able to have it working. It used to work well with gnome 2.16.

Also, some libslab libraries conflict with control-center 2.18. I've just edited the PKGBUILD to remove those files.

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

Are you still looking for it ?

I changed it a bit and now it runs fine on gnome 2.18, I guess I'll upload it later today somewhere if someone wants it.

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

please see http://pressh.archlinux.googlepages.com

ps. i'm not sure if the repo is working with pacman3, actually it is not here, but with pacman2 it is working. If it doesn't work use the direct linked packages wink

sure I do.
They are now also on http://pressh.archlinux.googlepages.com

[edit]
beagle is optional for this release. I guess I should have put that in the .install file. Anyway, uninstalling beagle removes the search bar in the applet, whereas installing adds the search bar.

Re: [request] gnome-main-menu

Gnome-main-menu is nice, but have you seen the knock off the Ubuntu guys made called USP (Ubuntu System Panel)? I prefer the layout of the USP menu because it doesn't require a second window to be opened just to browse your applications.  I'd be curious if you could get it to work, me and another Arch user made a pkgbuild for it, but it was kind of buggy. 

http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=156

Good work and thanks, I'm using gnome-main-menu right now. smile
