Probably filing a bug against request-tracker4 in launchpad would be a
good way to start. It's just a simple action for someone with the right
access, I believe; the 4.0.1 packages are unmodified from my Debian
ones so there's no remerging to do.

I certainly would prefer that RT4.0.2 come with Ubuntu 11.10. What
does "find an Ubuntu developer" mean? Does it mean vote and make noise
in some issue tracking system? Or hire someone to fix the 4.0.1
packages?

Re: [rt-users] Updating RT_SiteConfig in RT4.0.2

2011-09-15 Thread Izz Abdullah
I am aware Ubuntu is a debian clone.  Anyway, I admit I was mistaken about 
RT_Config being updated by RT_SiteConfig by that script.  Either way, the 
script is no longer in 4.0.2, or maybe it is the newer server version I am 
using.  I thought I had to run that script each time I updated the siteconfig 
file in order to see the changes in RT, but you know something, I also always 
restarted apache as well, so maybe that was the trick all along.

Thanks everyone for your response!

I can believe that was running some script. Ubuntu is a debian based
distro and plenty of things migrate from Debian into Ubuntu.

In vanilla RT nothing updates RT_Config.pm from RT_SiteConfig.pm. Both
are loaded, as well as configs from plugins. Settings in SiteConfig
just have the highest priority.

update-rt-siteconfig takes the files in
/etc/request-tracker3.8/RT_SiteConfig.d and uses them to construct
/etc/request-tracker3.8/RT_SiteConfig.pm. It does not alter RT_Config.pm
(which is installed under /usr in Debian).

If you are installing RT 4 manually, you will just be updating
RT_SiteConfig.pm directly.

If you prefer to work with Debian packages, you might find that it's
possible to backport 4.0 to Natty without too much work.

(Incidentally, it looks like 11.10 will release with RT 4.0.1; if any
Ubuntu users would prefer 4.0.2 in 11.10, now would be a good time to
find an Ubuntu developer to sync this for you).

Hi,

There were no huge changes in how RT 4.0 process config files unlike
it was in RT 3.8. Also, as far as I can see that script is debian
specific thing.

something like this in RT 4.0.2?  I have a fresh install (manual of course) on
