I think it's an update that created this bug, but I can't find out whitch.
Anyways before it worked well.

[Comment 1 Justin Spadea 2005-09-06 20:07:25 UTC]

I can confirm this. The problem is with the new libdockapp-0.6.0. Downgrading to 
0.5.0-r1 fixes the problem. Either wmnetload needs to be updated for a change in 
libdockapp, or libdockapp itself has a bug, but I haven't looked into this since 
I'm content with using 0.5.0-r1.

[Comment 2 Michele Noberasco (RETIRED) 2005-09-07 00:21:42 UTC]

Yes, I experience this, too...

I'm currently looking whether I can easily port this app to libdockapp-0.6.0,
otherwise I'll just adjust the libdockapp dependency.

[Comment 3 Michele Noberasco (RETIRED) 2005-09-26 04:00:08 UTC]

Just added new package revision to Portage, that forces libdockapp dependancy to
0.5.0-r1...
