Description Ben Liblit 2002-04-18 06:00:13 UTC 
gnome-panel sets environment variable BONOBO_ACTIVATION_DEBUG_OUTPUT to
"1".  This forces the bonobo-activation-server process to retain inherited
stdout and stderr, which it would otherwise redirect to /dev/null.  That
causes a regression of bug #46728.

The panel should not force BONOBO_ACTIVATION_DEBUG_OUTPUT=1.  This is a
per-user choice, is generally only appropriate for developers and those
without automounter-managed home directories.

This change was first made on 2001-11-01, in version 1.274 of
"gnome-panel/gnome-panel/main.c".  The code was later cut-n-paste relocated
on 2002-02-07, in version 1.314 of "gnome-panel/gnome-panel/main.c".  Mark
McLoughlin <mark@skynet.ie> performed both checkins.
Comment 1 Ben Liblit 2002-04-18 06:01:28 UTC 
Marking this bug as a blocker of bug #46728, since the later is
effectively in a state of regression until the former is fixed.
Comment 2 Mark McLoughlin 2002-04-18 15:00:06 UTC 
Yeah, that was rather rude :) Fixed in CVS
Comment 3 Ben Liblit 2002-05-26 20:00:54 UTC 
Verified as fixed in
gnome-panel-1.5.22.0.200205240531-0.snap.ximian.1. 
bonobo-activation-server correctly redirects stdin, stdout, and stderr
to /dev/null.  Thanks!
