Re: GNOME 2.30 and udisks (the module formerly known as DeviceKit-disk)
2010/1/20 Luca Ferretti elle@libero.it: * what about PolicyKit-power? You probably mean DeviceKit-power. :-) Well, in git master we've already changed the dbus interface name and a lot of internal symbols. I intend to do some more renaming and porting in the next few days, but with the intention of keeping the old devkit library (that things like gdm, g-s-d and others are using) API and ABI stable, and introducing a new library, libupower which uses the right names. By shipping both versions of the library we can wait for distros to pull new DeviceKit-power packages and then we can switch over users of the library to using libupower in their own time. I'll then propose to bump the external dep of DeviceKit-power in GNOME to the new version, and then we can go on converting packages (g-s-d etc) in git master. When enough time has passed (one cycle?) we can nuke the old devkit library. The next release of DeviceKit-power will still be called DeviceKit-power-$version, but the subsequent releases will be upower-$version, which can just obsolete DK-p as the new project provides the old library. I'll do this slowly to ensure the distros have as little pain as possible.

Re: GNOME 2.30 and udisks (the module formerly known as DeviceKit-disk)
Le mercredi 20 janvier 2010, à 21:41 +0100, Luca Ferretti a écrit : I was rebuilding from scratch my jhbuild sandbox, when gnome-disk-utilities failed due to missing udisks pkg-config file. I tried to search for a released udisks package, but the only one I found is a git snapshot here[1]. That's indeed bad because: + there's no real release of udisks + there was no notification sent about this (even if udisks == DK-disks, there's at least a version bump involved) I understand the desire to switch g-d-u to udisks in git, but it could have been done in a branch until there's a udisks release. I'm sure it will all be fine in the end, but we should all make sure that git master is always buildable and usable. Thanks for pointing this, Luca.

So, the following unavoidable questions: * when will be available a stable udisks release? * we'll automatically switch to udisks as external dependence? (I suppose yes) * how many modules currently depends on PolicyKit-disks? (just g-d-u, if I'm right) * what about PolicyKit-power? Cheers, Luca As announced elsewhere, udisks is simply DeviceKit-disks with a name change. FYI, there will be a udisks 1.0.0 release in time for gnome-disk-utility 2.30 - until then, people can use git master or recent distros like Rawhide or whatever. Also, GVfs master still works with gnome-disk-utility 2.28 if you don't want any of the new stuff yet.
