alsamixergui.tcz .desktop issue
« on: November 11, 2011, 11:47:33 AM »
alsamixergui.tcz's .desktop file is missing icon definitions, so it is not added to WBAR and so not appear on DE's menu. I kindly ask you update .desktop to to TC4

Added. Does it show up ok? I don't use a freedesktop DE.

It shows up in 'Accessories' group. Icon is OK.

would be better, but it is up to a personal preference maybe, not a must have change.

Isn't alsa.tcz missing in .dep? Stand-alone GUI doesn't work.

It has libasound, since the policy is to not to depend directly on alsa. I also think you can use alsa mixers on top of OSS_alsa.

OSS_alsa installs the whole alsa.tcz (is it rellay needed?), OSS.tcz plus more. As alsamixergui need alsa, do not see why alsa.tcz can't be added as dependency.

Hm, I see. The return of alsa-config to the main alsa extension broke OSS_alsa.
