You don't need to install freevo on another partition to run the svn
version. You can run it directly from the source directory, with a
./freevo or ./freevo -fs
You don't even need two local_conf.py files. So for example mplayervis
was split and renamed to mplayervis1 and mplayervis2. You can use the
version number to decide which plug-in to activate.
if version.__version__.split('-')[0] >= '1.8.2':
plugin.activate('audio.mplayervis2')
else:
plugin.activate('audio.mplayervis')
looks a bit complicated but isn't and goes like this:
version.__version__ = '1.8.3-svn'
'1.8.3-svn'.split('-') = ['1.8.3', 'svn']
['1.8.3', 'svn'][0] = '1.8.3'
this also works when the version number is '1.8.2'
'1.8.2'.split('-') = ['1.8.2']
['1.8.2'][0] = '1.8.2'
it doesn't work if the version number was '1.10.1'
The other change that sometimes happens is that I rename a variable say:
USE_NETWORK goes to SYS_USE_NETWORK.
It doesn't do any harm to have both entries in the local_conf.py, ie:
USE_NETWORK = 1
SYS_USE_NETWORK = 1
