Public bug reported: [Impact] Currently the Mythbuntu Control Centre "Repositories" plugin is present to be able to guide users into newer versions of MythTV. The newer versions of MythTV need to be documented in a flat 'repos.db' that is stored in bzr and updated by hand.
As the matrix of available versions has been changing throughout our release cycle, this has turned into an extra maintenance pain. We have automated the generation of this file along with a graph of supported releases. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/mythbuntu/mythbuntu-weekly-build/view/head:/generate_repos_database.py The outputs are these two files: http://download.mythbuntu.org/repos/repos-support-list.png http://download.mythbuntu.org/repos/repos.db Repos.db can be consumed by mythbuntu control centre to pull from that web URL instead of from bzr. [Test Case] 1) Remove .mythbuntu/repos.db 2) Update to a newer version of mythbuntu-common 3) Open MCC and choose the repositories tab 4) Hit Update 5) Make sure all releases through 0.28 are listed [Regression Potential] If downloads.mythbuntu.org goes down the app won't be able to pull this update. ** Affects: mythbuntu-common (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Fix Committed ** Affects: mythbuntu-common (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: mythbuntu-common (Ubuntu Precise) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: mythbuntu-common (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1227831 Title: New MythTV releases need to be manually inserted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mythbuntu-common/+bug/1227831/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
