Description of problem: I would be very glad to see the following packages available soon: xdotool Right now I'm using package from the Mandriva repositories, but don't like that solution. Anyway it is working fine, so I don't think porting will be hard (I'm ready to help if possible). How reproducible: Just install vanilla Mageia 1 without adding third party software.

xdotool is in cauldron, so it'll be in Mga 2
Source RPM: (none) => xdotool
Summary: xdotool missing => xdotool, fake keyboard/mouse input, window management, and more
Are we waiting for backports or can we close this request?

@ Kamil Thanks a lot for your question, I thought our maintainer would be too busy with more urgent things, but I don't know for sure, so I'll assign to him, he is free to assign back to us. IIUC, for Mga 1 the idea was that all Mdv packages could be requested to go into Mga1. Due to a lack of packagers, a lot of those requests just sit here in Bugzilla and nothing happens. I saw sometimes a package does get packed for cauldron, and then the packager has other priorities then packaging it for Mga 1, too. I'm starting to put "Mdv" on the whiteboard for packages that are in Mandriva, and to put "cauldron" there when such a package is in cauldron. So we are not waiting for backports for packages that are in Mdv 2010.x, and this request is valid as it.

I will review it, do some basic QA and ask to push with updates.
xdotool is imported into 1/updates. It will be soon in the updates testing.
Hi Kamil, Don't forget to reassign the bug to qa-bugs@ml.mageia.org once the package is available in updates_testing. Without assigning it to QA, the package won't make it through to the proper updates repository. Thanks for your work on this!
The package is pushed successfully into 1/updates_testing

Created attachment 1148 [details] Test script for xdotool Testing complete on i586 for the srpm xdotool-2.20110530.1-2.mga1.src.rpm For testing, I opened two konsole windows (neither of which were maximized) and used the attached script to resize them.
Confirmed validated on x86_64 Could someone from sysadmin please push xdotool-2.20110530.1-2.mga1.src.rpm from Updates_Testing to Updates Advisory ------- This update adds xdotool which was present in Mandriva 2010.2, but not present in Mageia 1.
