Dear Detlev, I'm in the process of preparing full featured eric packages via openSUSE build service (http://build.opensuse.org). Eg.: all of erics dependencies are fairly current: pylint (logilab-common, logilab-astng), rope, besides the usual suspects ;-)
Then I remembered, that I noticed "pysvn", when eric asked me the last time, which version control system I want to use. Since I do use svn, and I've an issue since day one with it and eric: when I'm connecting to a local svn server via http for the first time, I have to provide an password, which is fetched from the console: yes, right, I need to run eric from an xterm, setup the project, and enter the pw in the xterm, when erics svn setup dialog asks me for it... Now I ask myself, is that fixed, when using pysvn, or more general, could you briefly outline the difference of both implementations (from users perspective). The only other issue, I have with svn is, that it doesn't list the tags after eric's termination anymore. BTW, if you create an Novell account, you can watch this effort here: home:frispete:branches:KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop Hopefully, I find time to contribute to eric codewise, too. I've a few ideas here and there (e.g. a "smart" dialog for check-in with the diff in the advanced section, since I nearly always look at the diff before I commit). BTW, do you have an idea, who's in change of governing, that Linux-users don't want shortcuts for dialog buttons - that's just ridiculous. E.g., take svn diff/check-in dialogs in a typical work flow: look at the diff, enter some log text, and then it takes 4 tabs to get to the "Safe" button. Another dialog opens with the commit message, which has "Close" and "Cancel", while the still opened diff has "Save" and "Close". Notice the while the "Close" button swapped, which is unfortunate, the commits "Cancel" is disabled, thus forcing the user to push "Close" left (in commit) - "Close" right (in diff). Inconvenient. Probably, I'm going to create a petition against using Qt's DialogButtonBox for these reasons. Sorry for being so gabby today.
