Package: installation
Severity: important
I have tried my best to have SynCE working... but it didn't work.
The instructions found on their website are really confusing, but Debian
itself could make SynCE installation a LOT easier with some clean-up.
SynCE has a lot if inter-dependant packages but it seems that the
packages dependencies in Debian repositories are not set correctly or
they are missing.
For the moment, there are packages both related to
version 0.11 (already outdated) and 0.9, such as synce-kde, synce-hal
and synce-dccm. Some of
them, like raki (part of synce-kde) are
reported to be not even maintained anymore. This makes up for a hell,specially
because there
is a lot of packages (opensync? odccm? librra2?) which are pointed by
SynCE website as fundamental for the installation, and some of them
simply conflict with each other in Debian!
A normal user (I mean, not someone involved in SynCE development) simply can't
have all the needed packages
automatically selected and installed to have the whole thing working.
Ideally, installing a package such as synce-kpm should deal with all the
background stuff needed, but this is not what is happening. Possibly, I
guess, a "metapackage" could be created; but a more immediate solution
seems to be an update of all packages for the newest version 0.12 and a
complete dependencies check-up.
Thanks in advance!
