[Sugar-devel] Add dependency on pyXDG

2010-08-25 Thread Simon Schampijer
Hi,

pyxdg [1] provides facilities to access freedesktop.org standards. We 
would like to add it as a dependency to the sugar platform.

Real life example [2]: In sugar-jhbuild this will not discover that 
these files are not under sugar/jhbuild/install/share but can be found 
under /usr/share. pyxdg provides means to get a list of all the 
available paths.

Comments?

Regards,
Simon

FWIW, we use this in the GNOME version of TurtleArt. +1 from me.

I presume this is for the base sugar package and will be announced
against the package release that introduces is so I can update the rpm
spec to ensure its included.
