Upstream wants to deprecate gnome-desktop in the near future. The patch for it looks pretty straightforward. The worst case, if this is included, would probably be that if Gnome takes another approach in a future release and that then the old recent application list might not be read anymore after an upgrade. (Which is not really a problem IMHO.) In the mean time this could work for Gutsy users with gnome-main-menu installed.
I did not yet review the gnome-panel patch, though and I will test both patches in the course of next week. Maybe it could be included then, if the patch to gnome-panel also boils down to be quite minimal and straightforward. But IANAUD. -- wishlist: support for recently used applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/72172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
