Comment 22 for bug 511511

I tried the mentioned hack by kevin consisting of dragging an application launcher to docky. This worked at first, but for some reason doesnt work anymore, and I didnt upgrade. The nautilus icon just bounces up and down and nothing happens.

I really don't understand how this bug can be considered new or of low importance. I second what karlrt said that this is the hottest bug in docky. Is anyone developing this project anymore? It seems like a program designed to launch programs should be able to launch a file browser if it can launch anything. All this button action needs to do is perform something like system("nautilus");

I really love docky and it comes much closer to meeting my needs than the competition, but an obvious atrocious bug that renders the program virtually useless which has gone on unfixed for this long makes me seriously doubt the abilities and motivation of the developers. It's time for a fork.
