We have an icon

Thanks to the awesome Klaus Staedler GNOME DVB Daemon finally has an icon and therefore two starters in the main menu. Version 0.1.17 is mostly a bug fix release (thanks to all the testers for reporting bugs). Most of the fixes are in the channel scanner. Unfortunately, if you want get the best experience you have to use gst-plugins-bad from git as well, because it contains some fixes. Following the recent trend to deprecate HAL, gudev is now used to detect connected devices.

Please download it at https://launchpad.net/gnome-dvb-daemon/+download and give it a try. If you experience any problems please file a bug.

I’m going to stay in bug fixing mode for a while now to get things more stable. In addition, I contacted the GNOME documentation team so hopefully we will see a proper user documentation in the near future, too.
