broken after first run and filelist browser broken

[Herman Bos]

The dcgui-qt package is broken at the moment. I experience this problem on i386 and amd64.

First run everything is allright (well the window size at start is not really correct but at least the application works).

If you run it for a second time all settings seem lost. And even some default values are missing. So best fix is to remove ~/.dc and just start all over.

Another problematic thing is that the filelist browser is broken. If you download a filelist from a user it opens but you get een empty filelist browser. I think its the same when you trying to view your own filelist.

BTW is there a reason why DCGUI-QT 0.3.2 and not a more recent version is available? It did have a namechange to "Valknut" but it is the same piece of software.

I haven't experienced sortlike problems with DCGUI-QT in other distro's (I did build packages for it in slack a while back). Its unclear to me why this problem occurs.

Regarding the "broken after first run"-issue - there is a patch for this available on the dcgui-board.

It might however be easier and better for the user to provide a more up-to-date package.

dcgui-qt is now valknut.

Tested both on Breezy (0.3.7-1ubuntu1) and Dapper (0.3.7-2ubuntu1), theses problems are fixed.

Let me know if you still have problems
