[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 602084] Re: SyncCatalog and other key f-spot extensions aren't packaged

[Christian Reis]

Confirmed that the packaged 0.7.0 version misses SyncCatalog as well.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: f-spot
  
  For some odd reason I haven't entirely determined, f-spot release
  tarballs don't include all their extensions. For instance, while
  http://f-spot.org/Extensions, Changelog and the git tree lists quite a
  few tools:
  
-  http://git.gnome.org/browse/f-spot/tree/extensions/Tools
+  http://git.gnome.org/browse/f-spot/tree/extensions/Tools
   ChangePhotoPath
   DevelopInUFraw
   HashJob
   LiveWebGallery
-  MergeDb
+  MergeDb
   MetaPixel
   PictureTile
   RawPlusJpeg
   RetroactiveRoll
   ScreensaverConfig
   SyncCatalog
  
  The actual 0.6.1.5 and 0.7.0 tarballs only contain these:
  
    ChangePhotoPath
    DevelopInUFraw
    HashJob
    LiveWebGallery
    MergeDb
    RawPlusJpeg
    RetroactiveRoll
    ScreensaverConfig
  
  This means
  
    MetaPixel
    PictureTile
    SyncCatalog
  
  are missing.
  
  Perhaps because of this, the Ubuntu build is lacking a few key
  extensions. One of these is SyncCatalog, which has been noticed as being
  missing by other users in
  https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/f-spot/+question/111589
  
  I've managed to download a tip build of f-spot and modified SyncCatalog
  slightly to get it to build for 0.6.15; I'll attach a tarball shortly
  and perhaps that's the right way forward (packaging them separately, and
  including them in the repository). Or perhaps the right way forward is
  to investigate upstream why the tarball is missing these extensions. Has
  it been that just nobody noticed?

- Maverick current.
