It does. I understood this as "SyncEngine doesn't notice new devices once started", although could easily be wrong. If so, perhaps some Reload() method (like on the bus daemon itself) would work, no? > An observation that has no direct link here, but does it seem like > questions come to synce even when there are who knows how many different > packages in use ? Given the huge amount of layers involved in simply syncing your phone or looking at its filesystem, it's not /so/ surprising that SynCE is getting blamed when it shouldn't! It's quite confusing really; I used to understand what was going on, but have quickly forgotten! > Yeah looks reasonable. Isn't synce-gvfs in debian yet ? No. It appeared after I stopped using SynCE and didn't want to take on another package I wasn't using. An RFP was filed which no-one has answered yet[0]. 0. http://bugs.debian.org/517846 > I was afraid that was going to happen at some point, gnet has some > really useful functions. ...that GIO doesn't have?

I'm not really sure how to go about it ? Well, actually, I updated all the SynCE packages in Debian a few days ago so everything's up-to-date, but it would be nice to have a maintainer who actually knows what's going on. I'd be more than happy for you to adopt the packages, if you want? To get upload rights you need to apply to NM[1] which can take months and you have to prove previous participation in Debian, etc. Before that, you must get packages you want uploaded "sponsored" by an existing DD. Of course, I'd be more than happy to sponsor any uploads you want done -- just drop me a line on jo...@debian.org So, at the moment, I'm keeping all my packaging in Git[2] and using the git-buildpackage tool which I find really nifty. I would obviously recommend this too, but really don't mind what you do. If you want to give it a shot, just clone my repos. Otherwise you can download the existing packages in the archive, and go from there. Once you're done with a package, upload it somewhere and send me a link to the dsc and I'll take a look! Thanks for taking this on; I've been meaning to get this into better hands for a while! 1. http://nm.debian.org/ 2. http://git.jonnylamb.com/ -- Jonny Lamb, UK jonnyl...@jonnylamb.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ SynCE-Devel mailing list SynCE-Devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/synce-devel
