Easy_planeshift feedback
« on: December 06, 2005, 07:22:48 am »
Just to help Acraig with the easy_planeshift script.

The script works well for me, except 2 minors \"not-real-problems\" :
1) the `cvs update` fail for CEL, I just re-launch the script and it works well. I don\'t think it\'s really linked with the script (maybe network latency, but i\'m on a 20 Mb/s internet line...).
2) All compile well but I have some errors at link time (I will post the errors next time i compile it, because i\'ve not note them but it was errors related to ld). One more time I don\'t think those errors are related to the script.

As a conclusion i just say that the easy_planeshift script works perfectly well for me, i will try it on Mac OS X and let the feedback here too.

Anyway, thank you for this excellent way of installation, it\'s a little long the first time but i don\'t realy care.

malverian!!!! I thought you had gone into that good night!

I made a couple of small updates to your script there so you might want to check out the version I have hosted on the laanx site.  Check the change log for updates.

I also moved around some of the dependecy checking so it\'s first.

Can I add your email as a supporter for this script or do you want me to absorb the spam and pass on information to you?

Andrew,

I\'ve been _really_ busy these days. I\'m glad you guys have found a way to make good use of my scripts :)

I saw that you made a few changes. The work you\'ve done is great, very good idea on pulling the updater configuration files from the server. I\'ve gone back and fixed some style issues with your code -- mostly indentation (:-P), updated the README to document the new changes, etc, and will be making a new tarball.

I\'d say it probably makes most sense to have the tarball and configuration files hosted from Laanx, especially if the scripts are being officially supported by you guys. However, let\'s try to keep our repositories and package versions in sync. I will send you my most recent tarball when I see you next. Alternatively I may post it on my Easy Planeshift thread.

You can add planeshift [_at_] rabidgeek [_dot_] com to the support list if you wish (I\'m already listed as the contact in the README). Note though that I will potentially be less responsive then you would be. I suggest we recommend they first post to the forums for help before emailing anyone.

Hope to catch you in IRC!
