I installed gnome-python-desktop for some other applet as dependency and now it (invest-applet) showed up in panel. Just missing dep i guess.

pacman -Si gnome-applets.


Optional Deps : python-gnomeapplet: invest-applet
Comment by Ionut Biru (wonder) - Saturday, 02 October 2010, 07:07 GMT
that is for gnome-applets 2.32 from testing.

Yes i tested with extra , information is there , however is optional not defined as "nice to have" not "programms will not run without it"
or is this some KISS philosophy to keep dependencies as low as possible ?

in extra gnome-python-desktop is not split and having that as dependency is a nightmare :).

Jan, what do you think, is worth adding python-gnomeapplet to depends for gnome-applets 2.32?
Comment by Jan de Groot (JGC) - Saturday, 02 October 2010, 16:04 GMT
Gnome-applets is in the gnome group, so I would not like to have a hard dependency on python-gnomeapplet that depends on the split gnome-panel-bonobo module. Adding the dependency makes that splitup useless.
