ln -s /usr/share/php/Smarty /usr/share/gallery2/lib/smarty If you have already run the upgrade, you can still just add the symlink and it will work. I only say to add it before, to minimize the system check errors. After the symlink is added, the upgrade system checks detect 3 files missing (2 documentation files and a jar file, g2_db2.jar) and 2 modified (Smarty_Compiler.class.php and modifier.debug_print_var.php). These do not seem to present an issue. As far as I can tell, everything is working after the symlink was created.
Unless I am missing something, it seems to be impossible to upload pictures without the remote module. I was only able to upload my pictures via digikam, after manually installing the remote module.
It looked like gallery2-remote was obsoleted by gallery2-2.3-1 and the file was there:
rpm -qf /usr/share/gallery2/modules/remote/ItemAddGalleryRemote.inc gallery2-remote-2.3-1.fc10.noarch
Now it's gone from 2.3-7 and later. Not fixed with the Smarty fix that's in 2.3-11 that's in Koji. This sucks. I can't even add local items, I immediately get an "invalid path" error that this file is not found. Filing a bugzilla on this one now.
Looks like it got pulled due to a requirement for "nonredistributable jars" but it screws me over royally. As soon as I click on "Add Items to Album" it blows chunks and I have no idea what to do about it. I'm rebuilding the RPM's right now with the "rm -rf remote" commented out. I don't really use the remote protocol but it sucks getting screwed over like this by a build "upgrade".
I also tried using webdav, but nautilus from F10 is not able to access webdav shares: bugzilla #458892
I can access webdav by connecting to the server under Gnome. If you need to use SSL (which I do) it's a little tricky. I had to add some helper file, IIRC. Web search turned up that trick.
Therefore, I think that this new release (to cope with legal issues) has some regressions, which are difficult to deal with.
THAT's putting it mildly.
