Description Hammer Attila 2011-02-01 08:13:39 UTC 
Dear Developers,

Following traceback error message is known bug or right with latest uptodated Orca git master version if I run manual the Mozilla.py or Thunderbird.py file with Orca app-settings directory?
Traceback (most recent call last):

+ Trace 225789

  • File "Thunderbird.py", line 39 in <module> 
    orca.scripts.toolkits.Gecko.script_settings.controlCaretNavigation = True
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'scripts' 
Reproducation steps:
1. If have, remove the .local/share/orca/app-settings/Thunderbird.* file.
2. Create again the Thunderbird Orca application preferences file with Orca application-specific preference dialog.
3. Navigate the .local/share/orca/app-settings directory and run Thunderbird.py file with python Thunderbird.py command.
I see this traceback error message when I run manual the Mozilla.py file with .local/share/orca/app-settings directory too.

Attila you are not meant to run those as executable files. In fact, mere mortal users are not supposed to mess with them at all. So I could add code to Orca to write out those files with a "don't do this" print() call. Or you could stop trying to run them. <smiles>

I'm closing this as a NOTABUG. FWIW, eventually, the app settings will be in .conf files and/or gsettings and/or something that is *not* a foo.py file and then it becomes a non-issue anyway.
