--- Comment #66 from Matthias Saou matthias@saou.eu 2011-08-18 06:35:52 EDT --- * Regarding SpiffGtkWidgets, I've created a quick package : http://thias.fedorapeople.org/review/python-spiffgtkwidgets/ If anyone wants to maintain it, just pick it up, adapt if wanted, submit for review and I'll review it. Otherwise, I don't really mind maintaining it, but I think it makes more sense to have it done by the OpenERP maintainer, or at least someone close to upstream. The changes required to openerp-client should then be trivial (untested) : * "Requires: python-spiffgtkwidgets" * "rm -rf bin/SpiffGtkWidgets/" in %prep * Patch to setup.py to remove the two lines related to SpiffGtkWidgets
* Regarding the two other points. It's mostly political... For faces-project my opinion is that we should try to package in Fedora a version which suits OpenERP for now, making sure that the next future-merged-cleaned-up version up on sourceforge is something that upstream OpenERP is willing to switch to in the near future. As for pyftpdlib... dropping FTP support shouldn't be a critical issue, but if this is a very small and heavily modified library, then maybe the exception makes sense. Ideally the latest upstream should be patched in a backwards-compatible way, yet suitable for OpenERP.
