Description Erkan Yilmaz 2009-01-23 19:44:34 UTC
see picture: I had to run the python script in order to find out the
underlying error that the script did not get played

advantage of feature:
if there would be shown immediately (e.g. in a seperate box) messages then:
- users save time (by not running additionally the script)
- also for fresh users who are not familiar (with the OS, python, ...) would
  get immediate feedback and stay perhaps longer users of this software - instead of wondering
  like: "hm, why doesn't it work ? seems broken. Let's try another software."

My basic system information:

Fedora 10 (running in VirtualBox)
Gnome 2.24.2
dogtail 0.6.90-1.401.fc10.noarch

Other information:
- On request, I can provide more info

Comment 2 Fabio Durán Verdugo 2011-02-07 06:09:41 UTC
dogtail development has been stalled and it has been unmaintained for a few
years now.
Maintainers don't have future development plan so i am closing bugs as WONTFIX.
Please feel free to reopen the bugs in future if anyone takes the responsibility for active development.
