I thought the qt based 2d version will remain as a fallback solution, but it seems to go the same way as the fallback mode in gnome3. In unity-2d it was obviously possible to run the panel only, while dropping the dash and probably some other stuff. The native 3d version doesn't have this feature, so that is no real solution for Xfce users. BTW, probably I will switch from Xfce to KDE within the next months. I have never thought about this, but assuming KDE is at least as configurable as Xfce (and shrinkable, if needed), I could imagine that step. So I remove the "NotReady" tag now. If someone has time left for a review, please do it. The dependency appmenu-qt is built for f18 and rawhide now and the latter should be available soon for a Koji scratch build. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
