Looks like the Gnome data is actually stored in an entry in Evolution's addressbook(?) ~/.evolution/addressbook/local/system/ 2. This would need to work in KDE and other desktops. It would be best if there were an XDG database for this instead? 3. The Wine configuration fields should probably not be in the About tab. I don't think this is intuitive, since "About" is usually used for information, not settings. 4. Either way, the simplest thing that can be changed is to set the default empty string to tell the user the optimal place to set this information (like "Change owner in Wine Configuration About tab"). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
