[Bug 194924] Re: Please upgrade unison to 2.27.57

2008-08-07 Thread Nick Mayhall
Confirm. It'd be very useful to have the updated package.
However, (this is probably not the best way to do it, but...) a work around 
that I am currently using to sync directories on various machines with various 
versions of unison is to simply mount the directories to be synced via sshfs. 
And then use unison to sync the two directories. Syncing through sshfs (though 
i've seen people advise against it) treats unison as if it was syncing two 
directories on the same machine, so the other machine's version of unison does 
not even enter into the picture. 
This does require the following option to be used when mounting:

[machine]# sshfs -o workaround=rename
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/username/ mountname/

then to sync a directory named Desktop on the remote node to a directory
named Local on your local machine you

# unison mountname/Desktop  /home/username/Local

This definitely has its drawbacks, as you have to have already mounted a
directory on the remote  machine  before you can sync... but it works.

Can this one be marked as fix released? Now that the version is in
backports for Hardy.

Or will this version also be backported to Gutsy, Feisty and Dapper,
since they are still supported?

Dapper, Fiesty, and Gutsy are still supported.  For backports unless a
user requests it, Feisty and Gutsy won't get done (virtually all non-LTS
users upgrade, so these releases are not so important for backports).
For Dapper, the package won't build without changes on Dapper's tool
chain.  If someone can figure out what to do to make it work, then it
can be backoprted, but until then, no.

2008-05-07 Thread robert bowman
how odd! i was very happy after upgrading to hardy (from feisty) on my
server where both laptops (one hardy, the other gutsy) still sync'ed
fine with the server.

notice the past-tense.

yesterday, my server installed the new version of unison. thing is, my
hardy laptop refuses to think there's been an update.

now, both laptops won't sync. not that i expect the gutsy one to,
obviously.

just confused as to why however many times i perform dist-upgrade, my
hardy laptop refuses to update unison.

now nothing syncs. oh well.

robert

What about dapper backports?

I vaguely remember hearing something about dapper having an extra long
support cycle...

Ok, found it.

This is the first maintenance release of Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, which
continues to be supported with maintenance updates and security fixes
until June 2009 (on desktops) and June 2011 (on servers).

I think this qualifies as a maintenance release, considering every other
platform that I am aware of has upgraded to a version that's no longer
compatible with the one dapper is using, and I'm fairly certain that
2011 hasn't arrived yet. grin

I tried on Dapper.  The current package won't build on Dapper.  Someone who is 
interested would have to figure what changes the package needs to work on 
Dapper.  If that's done, then I can upload it.

2008-04-29 Thread Florian Pressler
I tried to incorporate the unison deb-package from Debian unstable into
a Ubuntu 8.04 installation, but it didn't work because of unfullfilled
dependencies. I didn't try to fix those, as my experience shows that
this typically leads to a snowball-effect which would force me to
upgrade lots of packages - not a good idea. What we would need as a
workaround would be a backport of the stable version of unison to
Ubuntu, but I'm afraid I can't provide that. If anyone finds such,
please a link here.

I am not adept at Debian/Ubuntu packaging or I would do this, but if we

to get them included in the Hardy Stable Release Update (SRU) scheduled

2008-04-28 Thread K. Chen
Its unfortunate this didn't make it into Hardy. Until this update makes
it into the ubuntu repositories, has anyone tried using Debian packages?
The list of files seem identical for the i386. I'm new to this, but I
was always under the impression that each ubuntu release is modified
from a recent version of Debian. Has anyone tried downloading Debian's
unison-gtk binary (or source) package and installing in Hardy?

I'd love to hear if this works or not. If it does, this can be a work-
around that we can use as we encourage the ubuntu maintainers to update
unison.

Also, I'm personally of the belief that it belongs as a backport for
dapper/gutsy rather than as an update.  As a result, I'm declining the
tasks for previous releases.  Depending on timing, it may be a good
candidate for SRU in hardy.
