In any case, if you look at PA's dbus page, the Stream Restore Extension is documented and accessible; presumably you can use that to find the relevant entries and delete them. Finding that page took somewhat less time than writing this mail does, so frankly I don't really understand what your problem is. > > Well, that's what libraries are for -- they encapsulate complicated things > > with an easy interface.

The whole point of libraries is to transform high-level- into low(er)-level interfaces. Your code uses malloc() even though the kernel only offers sbrk() and mmap(). Similarly, why do you use Gnome libraries if all these do is to transform your calls into GTK calls? Or GTK if all they do (or rather, did) is to call Xlib? Or Xlib, if all *that* does is to open a TCP or Unix-domain stream socket and read/writes random(-seeming) bytes? Same thing. -- -- Matthias Urlichs
