Is there a Leap package for Kupfer?

English Applications
#1

Hello, I installed Leap with Xfce on my laptop and am now trying to install my favorite application launcher, Kupfer. I could find packages for 13.1, 13.2 and Tumbleweed, under the “X11:Utilities” repository, but I cannot find a package for Leap. Why is that the case? I would expect that something that is packaged for 13.2 and Tumbleweed would also be packaged for Leap.

Hi
It’s not building because of a missing package “nothing provides
python-wnck”;
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:Utilities/kupfer

Send an email to the maintainer to ask if they can fix;

Thanks for the pointers. I have to confess that I am at a loss at how to proceed though.

First, it seems that kupfer has no maintainers? In the kupfer project users page it looks like Wnereiz is the maintainer but in his user page the “owned packages” list is empty.

I also can’t find a reference to python-wnck in the build service site. It appears on http://software.opensuse.org/package/python-wnck but in the build service website I could only find the base libwnck.

Hi
It doesn’t show email by the looks if not logged in, then the next stop is the last changelog entry :wink:
