Hmmm, well I have to say I wasn’t that impressed with the programme. Some of the illusions weren’t particularly impressive (especially when you’re married to a former magician’s assistant), and they only used the clips of us reading the passages to camera, didn’t use any of the descriptions or unpacking of the passages that took …

YaST2 support in Smart
Have applied Mauricio’s patch to add YaST2 support to the Smart package manager. Have added SUSE 10.0 Oss/Java/Extra repositories, and updated the channel information. Screenshot below shows Smart displaying the repository contents. Selected a package to install, it was successfully downloaded and installed. Nice one Mauricio! Does it also support YOU repositories?

BS203: 1120 words Whoops, missed one change required in beagle.spec to allow it to build on x86_64. Not worth me issuing another update to fix it, so if you want to build it on that architecture, change line 154 from –libexecdir=/opt/gnome/lib/nautilus \ to –libexecdir=/opt/gnome/%_lib/nautilus \ With Smart 0.41 being out, I made the switch to …

Beagle 0.1.4 is out, and packages for 10.0 (i586 and i686) are being uploaded to the usr-local-bin repository for your installing pleasure. Feature-wise these packages are maxed out and include the Python bindings, which I may in future strip out as a separate beagle-python package. Expect a rant soon about my CPU overheating when trying …
