I wasted some time today trying to update Matthias's spec files so I could try 0.5.2 of elisa.
After a bunch of debugging trying to figure out what was wrong, I figured out with Alessandro's help that I did not have site-packages/elisa/plugins/ installed. This is supposed to be installed by the core tarball, and should drop an __init__.py in that directory. (Let me know if this is right or wrong please). This directory and __init__.py are *not* in the 0.5.2 tarball. So I was wondering how this worked on any other distro. It turns out people think that nobody actually successfully packaged 0.5.2 for any linux distro. I stopped working on the tarballs at that point. So, questions: - does this mean the 0.5.2 tarballs are just as broken on Linux as the 0.5.1 ones ? - why isn't "build packages for at least one distro" a step in the release process ? Thomas
