[Radiotray-devel] Graphical chooser between systray and appindicator

[Carlos R. <car...@gm...>]

Hi all,

Due to the issues related wich gui to use under different systems, I created
a small gui chooser, to allow the user to choose between system tray and app
indicator, on the first run.
So, now, there's a new configuration option: "gui_engine" that can assume
the values: "appindicator", "systray" and "chooser". In the future it might
have a "gnomeshell" also.

If radio tray can't find the configuration option (in an upgrade situation),
then radio tray looks at the default configuration file. This way, the
maintainer of the package under a given distro can choose what's the most
suitable option. For example, in recent ubuntu versions, it should be
"appindicator". In this case, the chooser will never run. However, the
official deb package that we provide is a little more generic, so I think
the default should be "chooser". In this case, the chooser gui will be run
once and the chosen option will be saved in the user configuration file.

I think this covers all situations :)


Cheers,
Carlos Ribeiro
