bibletime stops wbar
« on: April 24, 2010, 03:18:05 AM »
When loading bibletime, wbar disappears, due to the icon not conforming or being missing or something similar. (wbar will not load if there is a icon or command problem with any of the apps.)

Looks like as if 'wbar' does not "like" SVG files. After I changed in '/usr/local/tce.wbar' the entry
   i: /usr/local/share/icons/bibletime.svg
to
   i: /usr/local/share/bibletime/icons/bibletime.png
I was able to restart 'wbar'.

Edit: If my theory is correct that wbar only "plays nice" with PNG files an enhancement of the new '/usr/bin/wbar_icon_upd.sh' might be required. A check for the file type could be able to prevent this issue and in case of a SVG file fall back to the "old" way to pick an icon file.

I'm not sure where the svg came from, my build script for this extension has the png icon used for wbar...

I have been converting existing extensions to be compliant with the freedesktop standards mentioned in this thread:

http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=5810.0

Batch converting was used, and there was a glitch in the icon used for the X-FullPathIcon entry in some extensions.  That has been fixed since the first pass.  A final conversion/correction will be done in the near future to make extensions compatible with TC 2.11.
