Package: viewcvs
Version: 0.9.2-4
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Hi,
I did a minor modification to viewcvs source code in order to give all
users the ability to publish and manage their own cvs repository.

First of all I added  this two lines in viewcvs.cgi:
import os
os.environ['CONF_PATHNAME'] = '/etc/viewcvs/viewcvs.conf'

Every user can then grab the script and copy it to their home directory.
they can then modify the configuration file location and specify their
own repository.

To make it working you also need to modify viewcvs.py (and where the
CONF_PATHNAME is defined) in the following way:
#CONF_PATHNAME = "/etc/viewcvs/viewcvs.conf"
import os
CONF_PATHNAME = os.environ.get('CONF_PATHNAME')

I'm not sure this is the best way to do it, but I think this small patch
can give more flexibility to the package.

I hope you can pass this upstream if it doesn't introduce any problems.

cheers,
p

The viewcvs package has been removed from Debian testing, unstable and
experimental, so I am now closing the bugs that were still opened
against it.

For more information about this package's removal, read
http://bugs.debian.org/460451 . That bug might give the reasons why
this package was removed, and suggestions of possible replacements.

Don't hesitate to reply to this mail if you have any question.

Thank you for your contribution to Debian.
