Thanks very much for your time. The bug #335474 is now solved by pilot-link from experimental. You said your bug is _not_ solved by using pilot-link 0.12.0-pre4. You should open a bug in the upstream bug tracker at http://bugs.pilot-link.org/ so your problem will be corrected.

Bug#336379: jpilot locks up when synchronizing Tungsten E2
Package: jpilot Version: 0.99.7-0.99.8-pre11-2 Severity: important When I try to synchronize my Tungsten E2, JPilot locks up "reliably" as soon as it hits one of the "Blazer" files. I assume that this has something to do with the format of the PDBs - the same errors occurs with "pilot-xfer"; however, "pilot-xfer" supports a "--exclude " option, which allows me to get past the problem. Perhaps including a similar feature in JPilot would be the simplest answer? The list of files that causes "pilot-xfer" to crash (presumably, JPilot would react the same way) is - Blazer Blazer CacheHistory Blazer Cookies Blazer_enUS Blazer Field Autofill Blazer Find Autofill Blazer URL Autofill HTTP Library NetFrontLib I've also seen reports of similar behavior by other people on the Net. I'm attaching several of these files (retrieved by copying them to the Tungsten's memory card) to this email in the hope that you'll find them useful.

You can get pilot-link 0.11.8-0.12.0-pre4-1 from Debian experimental if you want. You will have to recompile jpilot with it to -- possibly -- avoid the jpilot crash you have. Maybe I should also provide in experimental a version of jpilot compiled with pilot-link 0.12.0-pre4?

So, I take it that the problem is _not_ in Jpilot itself, but is in the pilot-link library? If so, I'll happily consider this bug closed and go bother those folks. :) Thanks for all your help so far! * Ben Okopnik * Editor-in-Chief, Linux Gazette * http://linuxgazette.net * -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
