GUI Package Manager ~Portato~ Old Support Thread

[Necoro]

I have since upgraded to 3.4e and that seems to be OK. But i can post the file anyway if you still want it?

Sabayon 3.4e uses Portato 0.8.1 by default. If you did not upgrade portato you now have this version installed ... (and then I don't need the desktop file)

Well i was wrong! Since upgrading to 3.4e the problem with portato remains. It opens ok from the command line but clicking the icon does nothing.portato

Ok ... I recommend, that you upgrade your overlays (portato-0.8.5 is now in the normal sabayon overlay) and upgrade portato - and reinstall gksu (just in case):

Code: Select all

layman -S
emerge -1av libgksu gksu
USE="-kde -userpriv" emerge -av portato

Then please test it again. If it still does not work, paste the content of /usr/share/applications/portato.desktop

[darkscot]

If it still does not work, paste the content of /usr/share/applications/portato.desktop

What do you mean by this? portato.desktop is an application.

It's a text file ...

It's a text file ...

Not on my setup it is not! Whenever I try to open it I get the message "are you sure you want to run this application?" If I say yes it opens portato!

[Stupot]

right click on it, go to open with and choose kwrite or some other text editor.

Here you go!
