bonobo-activation-server - GNOME component tracker
DESCRIPTION
This application tracks information about installed components and brokers
components, in conjunction with its client library; libbonobo-activation.

These files provide an XML description of a components capabilities which can be
queried and manipulated by clients from the client library.
Bonobo-activation-server also ensures that the minimum neccessary number of
servers for your display setup are running.
Bonobo-activation-server executes all components with the environment inherited
from the first process to start the server. In addition to using your prefix,
it will examine the BONOBO_ACTIVATION_PATH and the GNOME2_PATH environment
variables to find .server files.
In addition it examines an XML configuration file in ${prefix}/etc/bonobo-activation/bonobo-activation-config.xml
