[»] Homepage and Alternative
by Paul Wise - Jul 15th 2005 00:52:14

I'm unable to access the homepage, so I don't know what this package is like.

An alternative to this is change-background.py by Davyd Madeley of GNOME.

[»] More compromise

I think wallpaper tray is a great piece of software. This is exactly what I was having in mind for months and started implementing using Ruby/GNOME.

And well, since I liked it very much, I'm working on packaging, _officially_, for the Debian platform. Please take a look at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=213638

But I do think it needs a little bit more of... attention. I just discovered version 0.5.0 which was relased a few days ago, and I was trying to see the ChangeLog giving information about changes, but it doesn't. You don't print anywhere, AFAIK, your real name, only your nickname. And well, little details like those. Apart of that, this definitively rocks.

[»] Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy config errors
by Mrs. Karen Debbie - Dec 4th 2006 09:51:42

The configuration dialog triggers errors: andrew@yoda:~$ wallpaper-tray (wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_close_pressed'. (wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_apply_pressed'. (wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_add_dir_pressed'. (wp_tray:6383): libglade-WARNING **: could not find signal handler 'on_button_rem_dir_pressed'. It is as if the buttons don't have any actions registered to them. This problem occurs with the Add, Remove, and even Close button.
