Orage popup calendar no longer pops up - libnotify missing
Slackware 14 rc2 from Slackware-current as of yesterday (I think that is the RC2 snapshot). 64 bit.
I noticed that as of a week or so ago, the orage popup calendar would no longer pop up. I get a message in the console about libnotify.so.1 not being found. I noticed that Eric has a slackbuild script for libnotify in his repository, so I built and installed that and it fixed the problem.
I haven't done a clean install of Slackware-current to see if this is an omission in the current build, or something stupid I did. Anyone else notice this?
You can still manually install mousepad from an older version, but leafpad, as andrew.46 mentions, is actually the parent app of mousepad, and is very similar.
