Problem description
This update fixes several issues in draksnapshot:
The draksnapshot applet received the following fixes:
- on desktop startup, it will wait for 30s before checking for
available disc so that notification is positioned at the right place,
on the applet icon
- it prevents crashing if DBus is not reachable, and reports DBus
errors
- it prevents crashing if DBus is active, but HAL is not (#44434)
- if all discs are unmounted, the applet will hide (#41176)
- it prevents running more than once
- it uses HAL in order to detect discs available for backup, thus
fixing detecting some internal SATA discs as discs available for backup
(#41107)
It also uses new icons from Mandriva Linux 2009.0.
The draksnapshot configuration tool also received the following fixes:
- it stops saving config when clicking Close (#39790); one has to
click on Apply in order to save the config
- on first run, it offers backup in mounted disc path, instead of
defaulting to some place in the root filesystem which could previously
be filled up (#39802)
- it no longer offers to configure some obscure advanced options
- it now allows for disabling backups
- it generates anacron-friendly cron files
