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

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.

I saw you built the rpm package, thanks !
@ Denis I understand you found a solution. Can this enhancement request be closed?

@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
@ Denis Sorry, I heard the build might have failed I'll leave this request open and cc the packager

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 :)
