since subversion >dev-util/subversion-1.5.5 dev-util/meld-1.2.1 does not show the same modified files in a subversion directory as the svn cli. Reproducible: Always
well meld does not use subversion so I don't see what your problem here.
It does use subversion if available. Do "meld ." in a directory controlled by SVN and it will show you the outstanding diffs, basically svn diff graphically
And the bug report claims that is broken, that is.
meld will not start when I login as root: # meld Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/meld", line 90, in <module> meldapp.main() File "//usr/lib64/meld/meldapp.py", line 942, in main app = MeldApp() File "//usr/lib64/meld/meldapp.py", line 604, in __init__ self.prefs = MeldPreferences() File "//usr/lib64/meld/meldapp.py", line 492, in __init__ prefs.Preferences.__init__(self, "/apps/meld", self.defaults) File "//usr/lib64/meld/prefs.py", line 91, in __init__ self._gconf.add_dir(rootkey, gconf.CLIENT_PRELOAD_NONE) glib.GError: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.) but it is running OK from user session.
(In reply to comment #4) > meld will not start when I login as root: This has nothing to do with meld subversion support that this bug is about. Please don't "hijack" bugs and file a new one instead if it has nothing to do with the existing one.
hum that's super nice, I didn't know. Anyway seems fixed in 1.3.0 that I just commited to the tree. Please reopen if it's not the case.
