Preferences not correctly saved

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

Hotot fails to save some of my preferences.

For example, I cannot disable the verbose mode nor the use of Ubuntu indicator: 
each time I restart Hotot, these options are enabled. The same behavior happens 
at least for "Use native notify system" and "Hover to Open Tweet Box".

Further more, each time I open the preferences window, I also need to change 
the font (it always falls back to Andale Mono which is the first in the list, 
while I use Sans).

I run Hotot from git HEAD but this beahvior is not new (I am unfortunately 
unable to tell when it has begun if it has ever worked).

I have tried to wipe out ~/.config/hotot without success.

Cheers,
Julien

I obviously run the latest version from the mercurial repo - not git HEAD :/

Hi Julien,

I can't reproduce the issue you have described. can you provide more details 
about it? like the output in verbose mode and your system information.

I run Hotot on Debian sid amd64 with Python 2.6.7, python-webkit 1.1.8-2 in an 
openBox environment.

The verbose log is full of the following (unrelated) errors:
libsoup-CRITICAL **: soup_message_io_unpause: assertion `io != NULL' failed
and 
INSERT ERROR: 1,constraint failed

but nothing linked to the preferences window.

Looking into the contents of the db files, I have find something strange:
First launch:
"use_verbose_mode":"checked","use_ubuntu_indicator":"checked"

I then disabled both settings, and the entries were dropped from the DB.

After restarting hotot, they appeared again as follows:
"use_verbose_mode":true,"use_ubuntu_indicator":true

(ie. "true" instead of "checked" - shouldn't they be set to "false" when 
disabled?)

Still no idea for the fonts though. 

Hope this helps somehow...

Cheers,
Julien
