Hi list. (I have just subscribed, so sorry if this has already been requested.) I repeat my question originally sent to the kde-redhat list (see below): Would it be possible to include opensync (www.opensync.org) in fedora-extras? Original post with answer from the kde-redhat-list: On Thu, 2006-11-23 at 17:41 +0100, MartinG wrote:
Hi list. I am trying to make opensync [1] work on my FC6 laptop, but have run into some problems, and some of them are rpm related. OpenSync is a synchronization framework that is platform and distribution independent. It can be used to synchronize cell phones with i.e. KDE-PIM (Kontact, Kaddessbook, KNotes, etc) Currently, I have tried the FC5 yum repository from opensuse [2], but not all components will install. For example Kitchensync-opensync will fail, see the opensync ticket [3]. I believe this is because of a buggy .spec file. Maybe also this is related to ticket 388 [4]. Next week one of the opensync developers will fix the irmc-plugin so it will work with my SE T610 phone over bluetooth (OBEX), and I would guess many of the people watching this list also would love to "get synchronized". Although opensync is not yet a stable release, I think that if at least the installation is smooth, more people will contribute with testing, and the job for the developers will be easier... So, would it be possible to build good FC6 rpms for opensync (and the opensync enabled KDE Kitchensync)? Rex?
Why KDE-RedHat? It looks like a prime candidate for fedora-extra? I'd suggest you post a message in fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx [1] - Gilboa [1] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list original refs: -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
