Gnome Shell Extension for GPaste doesn't disable gpasted when disabled

[Keruspe]

Hi,

First of all, which version of GPaste are you running ?
GPaste isn't only a Gnome-Shell extension, it's also a CLI tool and there should be people who'd perhaps like the daemon to keep running even when disabling the extension, but I must admit that there should be a setting for this. I'll add it soon and it will be part of the next release.
Btw, you still can run "gpaste stop" to make the daemon stop doing anything.

You said gpasted was added to your startup program list, but it shouldn't be doing that since a few versions now.
There was a problem starting it over DBus from the Gnome-Shell applet so I used to provide this workaround, but I do not any longer since GPaste switched to GDBus (since 1.99 actually).

You're speaking about problems between GPaste and some applications. There used to be a lot of problems with applications manipulating images until GPaste 1.6, but since 1.99, images support has landed so with GPaste 2.0 which is the latest release (available for Gentoo, Fedora, Debian and Archlinux iirc) there shouldn't be anymore problem with it.

If you still can reproduce your problems with GPaste 2.0, feel free to give me more informations so that I can integrate better with those applications.

Thanks,
Marc-Antoine

Thanks for the quick response! I was running the default version on Fedora 16, which is 1.6-1, x64 for gpaste and noarch for the shell extension. So it looks like maybe this wouldn't be an issue for the latest version. I'll try to install a newer version soon and see if the issue is resolved.

Until then, here's the bug I filed on Inkscape - https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/897709

FYI, the redhat bug which alerted me of the bug regarding images: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742763

Just tried 2.0 from the Fedora testing repo and can confirm that Inkscape and Gpaste are friends again. Just gave it karma, so hopefully we can get this out to a wider audience.

Thanks for your help!
