Bug Description

Binary package hint: mousetweaks

The new upstream version of mousetweaks is 2.91.3, but the package is still using 2.91.3, though debian/changlog lists the changes that went into mousetweaks 2.91.3.

Moreover, as Ubuntu natty will continue to ship the gnome-panel (even though it might not be in the default installation), I wonder whether the new default of not enabling the applets should be reverted for Ubuntu natty. Here is a quote from the announce message of mousetweaks 2.91.3:

[quote]
The 2.91 branch of mousetweaks is aimed at GNOME 3 that is shipping the new GNOME Shell and that does not anymore use the gnome-panel. Thus, we have changed the default of mousetweaks to not build the applets for the gnome-panel.

However, if your distribution is still shipping the gnome-panel, I would suggest to enable the building of the applets when packaging mousetweaks for the distribution. There are two new configuration switches for that:
--enable-dwell-click
--enable-pointer-capture

By doing so, the people using a desktop with the gnome-panel will be able to install the applets as usual on the panel. And for people using a desktop without the gnome-panel, there is probably no other drawback than the little space used by the applets on their harddisk.

I am going to attach the tarball of mousetweaks and the corresponding debianisation to this bug thread. You might also download the tarball from here, if you want to verify its origin:
