When launching mintsources, timeshift or an app which Exec field (in the desktop file)
starts with pkexec, nothing happens and the output states:
"Refusing to render service to dead parents."
For some reason this does not happen on fresh LMDE 4 and Mint 19.3 installations,
but it happens on LMDE 3 -> LMDE 4 and 19.1 -> 19.3 upgrades.
Similar bugs were fixed in nemo and cinnamon. Pkexec is known to cause issues
depending on how it's launched.
This introduces a workaround to wrap the pkexec call within an "sh -c".
* system management: fix number of callback arguments
fixes runtime warning:
TypeError: changePluginSize() takes exactly 4 arguments (3 given)
looks like it was overlooked in 66f76df4d3
* places: remove leftover argument from callback
Since the move to GTK3 custom color support is extremely hacky and buggy:
- It relies on gtk_widget_override_color() which is deprecated
- Only one call to gtk_widget_override_color() is functional, successive
calls are ignored, leading to the menu not changing colors when the custom
colors are changed or enabled/disabled.
- RegenPlugins leads to a loss of color.
- Theme changes are broken due to overridden colors.
The feature is also very niche and quite unecessary. If a custom color is
better than the default one we should apply the change in the theme or
define a new theme which inherits ours and simply defines the menu
differently.
The way to do this, in line with GTK's design, is via CSS at theme level.
* initial cleanup with some debug messaging
* further cleanup, mostly coding style
* - more cleanup, and speed-up
- more fixes, including many icon and encoding related issues
- replace some icons and remove compile.py
- prepare for python3 port as much as possible
* remove some more unneeded files, few left-over cleanups
* move some external scripts to python3 already
* Fix and clean up add_search_suggestions and add_apt_filter_results logic
* more cleanup, thx Codacity
* fix issue with a path
* add a killall to the test script, fix a method declaration
* fix custom colour setting
* keybinding: re-add GdkX11
* re-add mint-common dep
* Use os.path.expanduser("~") instead of os.environ
* revert re-add GdkX11, but import Gtk first
* Applications: Fix keypress event handler
* further fix and simplify the keypress handler
* disconnect the keyPress handler when destroying the plugin
When recent plugin is disabled, recentAppBox is None,
resulting in errors in the logs:

* Highlight previous search so typing overwrites it
When set to remember the last search, on next opening the menu it would display the last search and put the cursor at the end of it. If you wanted to do a new search you would first have to delete your previous search. More convenient if you starting typing it overwrites the last search and only if you place the cursor with arrow keys or mouse it switches to insert / append text to the last search.
There was existing code that did in fact do that but it was in the wrong place. This patch puts it in the right place. Fixes#86.
* Remove code to set position at end
Because it doesn't do anything when you select all the text.
This fixes#178.
add_apt_filter_results ran a command with keywords from the menu's Search entry without shell escaping. This made it possible to have it run shell commands by using command substitution. E.g. searching for `$(xeyes)` would run xeyes.
When/if mintmenu gets ported to Python3 pipes.quote should be replaced by shlex.quote.
