Oh, this in fact might make things much easier. D-Bus activation provides exactly that -- if something tries to call a method on that service, and it's not running, it will start the service. Thus if we are *only* concerned about method calls, we can use d-bus activation as it is. But if we *also* need to react to signals sent by cups/hal, etc., then we need something running already, since d-bus activation doesn't trigger on signals. -- Do not auto-start the python applet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/323322 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
