Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gitosis
In started using gitosis in jaunty, and in ~gitosis/repositories/gitosis-admin.git/hooks which is a fundamental directory (since all gitosis activity is concentrated in what it does when you push a change in configuration), I (automatically) had the link post-update -> /usr/share/python- support/gitosis/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update . Unfortunately, when upgrading to karmic (gitosis 0.2+20080825-15), that file moved to /usr/share/pyshared/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update so the link became stale. This is _very_ unfortunate, since when post- update hook is not run, one can do _nothing_ (in particular I was not able do add a new user), not even enable debug! Moreover, the push of the gitosis-admin repository gives no error, so it is not easy to understand where the problem is (all you get can be a clueless "ERROR:gitosis.serve.main:Repository read access denied" when your user that you think you have enabled tries to access). As far as I can imagine, this will affect _all_ gitosis users upgrading. The only way I can interpret the fact that this bug has not been filed is that either gitosis is really not much used, or that not many servers have been upgraded to karmic. ** Affects: gitosis (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Binary package hint: gitosis In started using gitosis in jaunty, and in ~gitosis/repositories/gitosis-admin.git/hooks which is a fundamental directory (since all gitosis activity is concentrated in what it does when you push a change in configuration), I (automatically) had the link post-update -> /usr/share/python- support/gitosis/gitosis/templates/admin/hooks/post-update .
