Name        : gwibber

Summary     : An open source microblogging client for GNOME developed with Python and GTK
Description :
Gwibber is an open source microblogging client for GNOME developed with Python
and GTK. It supports Twitter, Jaiku, Identi.ca, Facebook, and Digg.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Update to 2.31.4  Fix Google Buzz  Fix Mousewheel scrolling  Fix client app so
when "minimize_to_tray" preference is set, it will quit when minimized and the
user selects "quit" from the tray menu. This is a new branch of gwibber code,
you should be aware of the following:    1) This branch no longer uses
desktopcouch (it uses SQLite instead). This resolves the vast majority of
crashes and performance issues.    2) The SQLite database format has changed. If
you have been running a SQLite aware gwibber, you will need to delete the user-
local copy of the gwibber SQLite db file and start over to use this package, or
things will break (you'll notice that no new updates occur). Deleting the
gwibber SQLite db file will also delete any configured gwibber
accounts/preferences, so you'll need to readd them. To do this, run:      rm
~/.cache/gwibber/gwibber.sqlite    3) Facebook support in gwibber is pretty
rough at the moment. Here's why:    * Facebook switched to a "per-application"
throttling policy, so that means that no "application" can do too many calls to
the Facebook API, and once that limit is reached, the Facebook API will just
refuse to respond.   * When I say "per-application", I mean "all instances of
gwibber running everywhere", not "the instance of gwibber you're running on your
Fedora machine right now".   * Old versions of gwibber, written before this
change took effect are still in wide use. This version is self-regulating, but
older versions just slam the Facebook API repeatedly, like a toddler with a
spoon.  * Conclusion: Facebook is really hit or miss at the moment. Upstream
knows about it. Be patient.    4) Gwibber no longer jumps around as new messages
come in. Major upgrade to version 2.0 of Gwibber, including many bug fixes and
improvements to the interface. Update gwibber to 2.29.92.1.    While I would not
normally perform a major update to gwibber for released distributions, this
update is important for the following reasons:    * Gwibber 1.2.0 and 2.0.0
crash. A lot. Most of the reasons for these crashes are exposed feature
functionality which was never implemented completely. These features are
generally implemented properly in the 2.29.92.1 code, and so far, it has yet to
crash on me in extensive testing.    * Upstream is not maintaining the 1.2 or
2.0 branches at all, so any work done in those spaces is wasteful. Update to
2.30.0.1 Fix bug where non-int font size would crash gwibber. Add support for
GNOME notification area. * If ~/.cache/gwibber does not exist, create it with
os.makedirs() not os.mkdir()    * default notification icon size is now 48 x 48
* fixes situation where pango_overlay could be called before it is defined    *
fixes issues where facebook account creation would fail
