GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 684157
configure --enable-frequency-selector non functional
Last modified: 2013-07-21 16:27:44 UTC
configure --enable-frequency-selector does not work as expected, and has the same effect as --disable-frequency-selector; the only way currently to enable the frequency selector is not to specify enable/disable at all. The issue in configure.in is rather 'clear': dnl --enable-frequency-selector=(yes/no) AC_ARG_ENABLE(frequency-selector, [ --enable-frequency-selector[@<:@=yes/no@:>@] build frequency selector [@<:@default: yes@:>@]], , enable_selector=yes) there is a mis-match between 'frequency-selector' and 'selector' variables, which results in this mismatch. I'll see if I can come up with a nice patch without changing configure too mutch.

Are the -applets considered dead to not care anymore for such patches? If they are, we could/should close bugs, even as trivial as this one, as wontfix / obsolete.
Yes, gnome-applets and gnome-panel are unmaintained which means that it's unlikely that anyone would even come around to close bugs. See also https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeFlashback You could easily get maintainer access if you wanted to take charge.
