Bugzilla Bug 81231

Here's what's new and fixed in 2.2 -

    * Now reading config from /etc/pypanelrc first if it exists
    * New option to show only minimized/iconified apps (SHOWMINIMIZED)
    * New option to show a border around the panel (SHOWBORDER)
    * New option to set the minimized panel size (HIDDEN_SIZE)
    * Added a panelButtonEvent() function to handle button events on an empty panel
    * Removed legacy WindowMaker support, it's now EWMH capable
    * Fixed setup.py to gather correct compile/link arguments
    * Added a workaround for failing image loaders in Imlib2 v1.2.0 and up

I have copied the 2.0 ebuild in an overlay, renamed it, tried to install and it  is working now. This will also close bug 75256 since it can now work with Imlib2 1.2.0 and up.

Reproducible: Always

I had some problems with version 2.0 of pypanel. With this one - they
disappeared! :D

Put it into portage! Works fantastic!

It doesn't work from me. I get this error :

jackmort@gentoo ~ $ pypanel 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pypanel", line 752, in ?
    import dl
ImportError: No module named dl
jackmort@gentoo ~ $ 

I didn't find any solution...

@jack_mort

seems like a problem with your python installation. Check if you have this file :

/usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/dl.so

Even better start a python console and type "import dl". If you have an error, try reemerging your python installation. It seems to be an errorhandling class (how ironic ...) so it should be fairly standard IMO.

@Devs

Any news on this, it will fix bug 75256 at the same time. Thanks for checking this.

Indeed, I don't have the dl.so. However, I already tried to rebuild my python,
and even upgrading to python 2.4.. with non luck. But, it seems to be an amd64
bug, as I found this report : http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-296188.html.

Created an attachment (id=52213) [details]
pypanel-2.2-amd64-compatibility.patch

This is diff -Naur style patch, that is on the forums (link in previous post)

Created an attachment (id=52214) [details]
pypanel-2.2.ebuild

ebuild for version 2.2 with epatch function included

pypanel 2.2 fixes bug #75256 on x86.

plz bump

- works fine
- 2,5 months working ebuild in bugzilla
- fixes bug 75256

Bumped 2.3 on tree. It seems the compatibility bug isn't needed on the new
version. Can someone check it?

'course I meant the "compatiblity bug" patch.

As I checkd it few days ago - patch is already aplied to sources (in changed
form).

Best regards,
Przemek
