Description Denis Prost 2011-04-08 13:57:23 CEST

the filesandfolders gnome-do plugin is very efficient to go straightforward to a desired folder or document. It is very useful when one as hundreds of documents folders.
Unfortunately kupfer, which is a kind of gnome-do replacement not depending on mono and so easier to package, does not have this wonderful feature. 
So it would be nice if Mageia could package the gnome-do stuff.
Thanks !

I realized that, in fact, gnome-do was in the repositories. That's great !
I'm only missing now the plugins to have it fully efficient.
Thanks

Comment 2 Denis Prost 2011-06-08 15:03:06 CEST

As a workaround, I generated an rpm package for gnome-do-plugins, from the debian one that can be downloaded from here :
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/all/gnome-do-plugins/download
with "alien --to-rpm <debian package>"
Then I installed it and had to do one last thing to get it work :
ln -s  /usr/lib/gnome-do/plugins /usr/lib64/gnome-do/ 
(since I use the 64 bits Mageia.)

I guess that command could be added in the rpm post-installation script when uname -m returns "x86-64", but I don't know enough about rpm packaging to modify the package myself.
Anyway it looks like, for someone who knows more than me, achieving a working package should not be a too hard task.

@Marja

If what I see here : http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/gnome-do-plugins/
means that there will be a gnome-do-plugins package in Mageia 2, yes, you can close it !

Regards,

Denis

I checked Mageia 2 beta 3 : still no gnome-do-plugins package.
Any chance that it is in the final release ?
Thanks

As with everything in the community world, if nobody do it, no

Unfortunately I don't have skills to do it myself and time to learn.
I hoped it would not take too much time for the gnome-do packager to do it but maybe I don't realize what it really takes to achieve it....

Unfortunately, we don't have a gnome-do maintainer :(

However, thanks for the suggestion, I'll cc two more gnome-do committers who weren't in the cc of this bug yet :)
