** Description changed: Binary package hint: bcfg2 + + Original report: Is there any way we can get the bcfg2/bcfg2-server packages at https://launchpad.net/~bcfg2/+archive/ppa synced to lucid since the current packages are very broken (see bug #421308)? These packages have been tested by multiple users and are preferred in favor of the very old version that is currently packaged. + 1. The bcfg2/bcfg2-server packages are completely unusable due to a python version upgrade (see bug #421308). + 2. Support for more recent versions of python was added upstream in the 1.x.x series. The 11.04 release has 1.1.1-2ubuntu1 which is tested and working. + 3. The changes from the 0.9.6 series to the 1.x.x series were extremely significant and it would be easier to do a new upload than a diff on the 0.9.6 series. + 4. TEST CASE: + sudo aptitude install bcfg2-server + sudo bcfg2-admin init + (follow onscreen instructions) + sudo bcfg2-server + Note that this test case will show the problem in the broken 0.9.6 packages whereas the 1.1.1-2ubuntu1 package will run the server successfully. + 5. There is no chance of regression issues since the currently packaged version is completely unusable. + Thanks!
