Description Alan Cramer 2007-07-31 02:43:46 UTC
Would like patch added to ebuild for Gnome-Menus to fix python related crashes.  Patch is from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442747

Can confirm that it works for me.  Simply had to put patch in files directory and add src_unpack info to existing ebuild.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Without patch:

1. Install either Gimmie or BigBoard (from mugshot)
2. Running either package, goto /usr/share/applications
3. modify any desktop file there, upon saving, it will crash application.

Actual Results:  
Without patch, it crashes python software using gnome-menus package when changes are made to /usr/share/applications

Expected Results:  
Shouldn't crash.  Patch fixes this.
