More on Smolt

Minutes after I posted The new shiny Smolt client I've received lots of feedback via email, IM and Novell Bugzilla. The most annoying bugs were:

• Bug 525324 - [home:cgoncalves:playground] the Privacy Policy window has not scrollbar

• Bug 525322 - [home:cgoncalves:playground] smolt does not display special chars

All known bugs were fixed and Smolt 1.3.2 tagged.

Q: So, what's really new?!
A:

1. Smolt KDE4 popup made by Thomas Goettlicher:
   
   

The notification will be shown automatically upon KDE startup (X-KDE-autostart-phase=2)


2. Qt.ToolButtonTextBesideIcon (the text appears beside the icon) is now default per Nuno Pinheiro's suggestion:
   
   


3. Window size auto-adjusting:
   
   
   As you can also see BNC #525322 is indeed fixed.
   

I'm preparing a Smolt RPM update to submit to openSUSE Factory to get included in time for openSUSE 11.2, though you can try it already by using my home:cgoncalves:playground repository:

openSUSE 11.1:
# zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/cgoncalves:/playground/openSUSE_11.1/ home:cgoncalves:playground
openSUSE Factory:
# zypper ar http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/cgoncalves:/playground/openSUSE_Factory/ home:cgoncalves:playground

# zypper ref home:cgoncalves:playground
# zypper in smolt-snapshot smolt-popup

As always, please give us feedback!
