> Is there any way we can work around the issue on our side?
Heh... We can add something like this in our code:
if (findExcutableForPid(dbus()->senderPid()) == "*dropbox*") {
wait, so menu UpdateLayout can proceed in the meantime or something like that
}
but... we shouldn't, because:
* this is a super ugly hack that can impact performance for all right clicks on
tray icons
* Dropbox is using Qt (PyQt to be clear)! It should work correctly out of the
box, they are definitely doing something nasty. Of course everything is
compiled and obfuscated, so no chance for community fix.
* As Samer Masterson wrote, they have other issue (memory leaks) and that's
*their* workaround for it.
* I know that Dropbox is important, I'm using it myself. But we shouldn't write
costly workarounds for one app.
* Dropbox Linux app is buggy and there is no support from their side. I would
love to report a bug correct and even send a patch. But I can't
* This is not a critical bug that, we can live with that. It is just annying.
* I may repeat myself, but it is super ugly :)
