GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 119592
gnome.ui.gnome_master_client returns null and application can't connect to session
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
gnome-python programs like the rhn-applet can't seem to be able to connect to the session manager and thus aren't getting respawned on startup. Attached is a small testcase
Created attachment 19091 [details] reproduceable with 1.99.14
That version is pretty old. Have you tried 1.99.17, at least?
Upgrading isn't an easy matter. Does the testcase pass with a more recent version?
I think this bug is related to bug 117421, but haven't verified it. It should work with the libgnome-2.3.6, or the latest CVS of the gnome-2-2 branch. You could also apply the patch attached to the bug. Does this sound likely?
If that is the problem, I'll mark the bug as a duplicate of bug 109407, which we were tracking the gnome-python problem with.
