Hey,
Another hard question. While looking at the remaining packages that were missing for GNOME 2.28, I saw that gnome-disk-utility requires a newer DeviceKit-disks. Missing the latest gnome-disk-utility version wouldn't be a huge issue for me (except that we'll lack many translation updates).
However, the latest version of DeviceKit-disks contain some changes that can be important. Stuff like "NULL dereference" or a fix for "Require password to eject a CD or DVD mounted by the same user". However, the dbus API has been updated.
As far as I can tell, the only user of DeviceKit-disks is gnome-disk-utility (and therefore gvfs). And this release of DeviceKit-disks was more or less done for GNOME 2.28.
A couple of options:
+ update DK-disks (and gnome-disk-utility)
+ cherry-pick the patches that seem relevant from git (when git.fd.o will be back online). Not sure yet it's possible, but I guess it should be.
+ keep our current version
Opinions?
As this is all really new stuff, and bugfixes only happen in the recent release, I pretty sure we should update. Another reason is that it makes sense to ship the same version as Fedora will ship in F12, so we share the same bugs. :) Kay -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
