Description Hanno Zysik (geki) 2010-03-07 11:56:40 UTC
I opened vuze and the annoying donation window showed up. That is not friendly and well, ooo-build  rips such things from openoffice, too. So, I would say:
Please remove the feature to open the donation window on startup.

I attach two patches.
1. to rip that ... completely
2. to maybe remove the startup feature (untested)

Since this happens on first or random startups I cannot reproduce patch no. two.
Instead I rip it off completely.

Sadly this is neither a bug in the ebuild or in the application.  While I realise why you have gone to the effort of making these patches we have a policy of sticking to upstream releases as close as possible.

Please file a bug upstream on this issue.  It may be acceptable to them to add a configuration option which will disable the donation window.

Closing Invalid.

Well, it is not that I want to remove it. ;)
It just should not pop up at start randomly.

Anyway, there is an alternative client without java dependency.
