Evolution Python

  • This has now been moved to GNOME SVN in the gnome-python-desktop module
  • You may use the standalone evolution-python, or the GNOME one (depending on your distro/packager)

Notes to Packagers

  • Web browser problems and crashes
    • If users experience crashes using online data providers, this could be due to a combination of;
      • Using conduit's built in web browser AND the /usr/bin/conduit wrapper not picking up firefox libs/run-mozilla.sh script (which sets mozilla LD_LIBRARY_PATH hacks correctly)
    • To resolve these issues ;
      • Look at the conduit wrapper and ensure the run-mozilla.sh gets called OR
      • Make the default web browser the system one patch Settings.py (not recommended)
      • You can test these changes by clicking on the developer menu items in the Help menu
    • The run-mozilla.sh hack is no longer needed with Gecko 1.9/Firefox 3
    • The built in web browser will become the default method to log into websites for the next release
  • F-spot
    • If you do wish to make the Conduit + F-spot experience better then consider changing the default value of F-spot's "Allow other programs to manipulate F-spot" preference to True
  • Dependencies
    • We require pygoocanvas > 0.9.0
    • We depend on python-vobject (and it brings in python date-util)
    • We ship a modified FlickrAPI (do not remove it)
    • iPod photos requires libgpod > 0.6.0
    • If you use the gtkmozembed web browser then we require the python bindings to it (gnome-python-extras)
    • The AV converters require ffmpeg and mencoder
    • Since evolution-python is now in gnome-python-desktop we require a recent unstable release of that module (or the standalone evolution-python)
  • Conduit is configured to autorun at system startup. You can disable this if you like as there is currently no way to do so within conduit
