Bug 27681

Created attachment 12028 [details]
file ~/.config/radiotray-ng/bookmarks.json

I mean a comma is missing

Hello,

It affect also Cauldron version.

Please test radiotray-ng-0.2.5-1.1.mga7 in core/updates_testing.

You might need to remove old bookmarks file ~/.config/radiotray-ng/bookmarks.json first.

Hello,

I installed the testing package, but i had to rename ~/.config/radiotray-ng/ folder for radiotray-ng to regenerate the bookmarks.json.

So i suppose it will work on a fresh profile, but not on an already installed/launched one.

Hello
radiotray-ng-0.2.5-1.1.mga7 tested and works fine but it is necessary to delete the whole folder ~/.config/radiotray-ng before installing, not only bookmarks.json
Thanks

@David Hodgins,
Does this adv is satisfying? Does the fix seems OK?

CC: (none) => davidwhodgins

Not in my opinion. Most people never read advisories, especially before
installing updates.

I'm assuming it's safe to delete the directory ~./config/radiotray-ng after
installing, as long as radiotray-ng is not running.

I think the package should be modified to include a README.urpmi warning
users that old versions of that directory must be deleted with radiotray-ng
not running.

I can add README.update.urpmi if someone tells what to write to it.

Proposed README.update.urpmi

radiotray-ng package was updated.

Old version of files in that directory must be removed. We strongly advice you to make a backup of ~./config/radiotray-ng directory and remove it.
As user in a Terminal, please do:
"mv ~/.config/radiotray-ng/ ~/.config/radiotray-ng.old/"

Normally, according to our policies, we do not want to remove/rename/touch files in user directory, but sometimes, some config files can be problematic and make software to have some misbehaviour.

Ping?

Re ping. We should fix this.

MGA7-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50
First installed the current version, but that one was sort ot incomplete, since it  had no list of categories or stations.
Installed then the version of Comment 14, deleted the radiotray-ng folder from ~/.config, started radiotray-ng, and got the list of catergories and could pick one of the stations and listen.
Ok then.

Herman,
As this bug was already resolved for mga7, pushed update, incl advisory
- please open a new bug for mga8 and close this one.

Also, have you tested on cauldron?
If valid for cauldron set the bug to cauldron and flag MGA8TOO

Even if Herman needs to open a new bug: can't repeat the issue. At first start (if  this app was never opened before), the config file gets created and the app starts in the systray with full functional menu. Below the (absolut normal and correct) output of first start of the app after installation.
