Probably, the best solution is to move them (entirely) somewhere like https://launchpad.net/openobject-extra-addons These addons will be owned by 'OpenERP Committers' and will have a branch structure like the openobject-addons one. > > (Suppose we move out a module from extra-addons into another branch: when > the users pull the last version of extra-addons they will just see that the > module is missing, but they don't have an automated way to find and download > the new version.

For instance, what problem do you see in moving this branch https://code.launchpad.net/~openerp-commiter/openobject-addons/trunk-extra-addons to something like https://code.launchpad.net/~openerp-commiter/openobject-extra-addons/trunk ? > > I think we need either command-line tools or OpenERP wizards able to resolve > and download module dependencies (some kind of "apt-get" or "easy_install" > for OpenERP 'apps'). Does somebody know if such tools are planned? This is certainly a significant improvement. It has been talked about http://feedback.openerp.com/forums/95265-technical-improvements/suggestions/1358523-openerp-module-should-be-standard-python-egg-modu and it seems to be planned -- Lorenzo Battistini http://www.agilebg.com - http://www.domsense.com _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-community More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
