Hi, me again.

Gnome 2.17.3: script is trying to donwload a file that does not exist.

*** error during stage download of gnutls: Error running ['wget', u'ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/alph... '-O', u'/home/claudio/cvs/tarball-gnome2/pkgs/gnutls-1.4.0.tar.bz2'] *** [53/138]

Building 2.13.4. Found another issues. Do you guys have a bugzilla (for smoketest), or someplace i can write "my experiments".
I tried to find you on IRC, but i suppose you take some nights to sleep in the week. I choose one of these days.

I reported the libxklaver error. I think the next release will fix this.

Claudio André: on irc.gimp.org, try #gnome or #bugs (or look for me, vuntz). I'll try to write a better documentation for next time, with all the useful information.

Pankaj: there's a --disable-mozilla-plugin configure switch for totem. See the comment in the .jhbuildrc file.

Tried to create totem plugin in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and failed because of permission issues. I think the script should try to put the plugin in ~/.mozilla/plugins if the user running the build is not root.

Would you please update your post, telling us the IRC channel or where we (smoketesters) can find the developers. I'm dealing with 2 problems that i suppose i'm not going to solve by myself.
As you can see, i'm not what you can call a "good GNOME hacker".

Smoketesting GNOME 2.13.2 - libxklavier error

libxklavier error — Fri, 18 Nov 2005 00:17:25 +0000

libxklavier has -Werror flag set in Makefile causing failure. I manually removed the option from the makefile and then it worked.

Claudio: ftp.gnupg.org works/ so it's probably a good alternative.

As for hal, I don't know. I don't have this issue. In fact, I didn't know we were compiling hal :-)

I've faced some problems that you guys might can solve in the future.
- Servers: ftp.gnupg.org and ftp.gnutls.org (specially the first) are too busy. I had to download myself from mirrors. Are there better mirrors to put in script you created ?
- Hal.
mkdir -p -- /etc/hotplug.d/default
mkdir: unable to create folder `/etc/hotplug.d': Permission denied.
I had to create the directory myself.

The commands on the given blog entry are incorrect:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous anoncvs gnome org:/cvs/gnome login
should read
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome login

and
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous anoncvs gnome org:/cvs/gnome checkout jhbuild
should read
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome checkout jhbuild

Thanks to bkor and fatalerror in #gnome-love for the help with this ...
