** Description changed: + [Impact] + Cheese no longer displays its menu button on non-GNOME desktop environments. + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/62 + + Xubuntu uses cheese as its default camera program. Advanced users can + still change these settings through dconf-editor, but this is neither + convenient nor intuitive. + + [Test Case] + + Use the cheese program in Xubuntu/xfce, Kubuntu/KDE or other non-GNOME + desktop environments. Notice missing menu in titlebar. + + [Regression Potential] + + The most likely regression would be if the patch disabled the menu in + GNOME. Testing has not shown this to be an issue. + + + [ORIGINAL REPORT] Cheese has removed the GUI method of accessing preferences for non-GNOME users. https://github.com/GNOME/cheese/commit/48882da6a6dc4fc1c19e15f5210c9e10feb67ff5#diff-b2b45275b16940829b5f6f068943108d I'm not sure if upstream cheese devs care enough to fix it: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/62 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/cheese/-/issues/52 Should Xubuntu default to a different camera program, such as guvcview? (Partial?) WORKAROUND is to use dconf-editor: dconf-editor /org/gnome/cheese
