Bug 90178 – tomboy takes huge time to save notes

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description george 2005-04-23 16:20:21 UTC]

when io try to close tomboy it takes very long to close the application.
Apparently it is blocked.

This happens after the first run of the application.
I don't know if this happens again at subsequent runs as it does not run after writing the ~/.tomboy directory.

So, this report contains actually 2 (two) bugs.
- saving notes blocks (altough the notes are saved - checked in ~)
- restarting a second time is not possible


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.install tomboy 
2.run tomboy; exit application


Actual Results:  
tomboy remains in  the "Saving 'Start Here'..." state

Expected Results:  
close and save the state of the application.

What version of tomboy are you using? Thanks.

[Comment 2 george 2005-04-26 01:13:45 UTC]

[Comment 3 george 2005-04-26 02:05:06 UTC]

i've tried also version 0.3.1 from the masked port, and i get the following message when i start the application:

All done.  Ciao!

it si funny 

[Comment 4 george 2005-04-26 02:07:42 UTC]

nothing happends. the application crashes with no error.

0.3.x now acts as a gnome panel applet by default when starting, If you're using gnome, just right click a panel and go "Add to panel". If not, you can get the old behavior by doing "--tray-icon".

[Comment 6 Peter Johanson (RETIRED) 2005-05-05 11:13:59 UTC]

Also, can you please try tomboy-0.3.2 which i just commited to portage? Thanks.

[Comment 7 george 2005-05-05 22:01:23 UTC]

i just compiled 0.3.2 it works perfectly for now. 

[Comment 8 Peter Johanson (RETIRED) 2005-05-06 06:32:19 UTC]
