I got it. I can help to do PPA :-) I succeed once for my branch. I am going to help yours works, too.

Awesome, thanks a lot. I'll give this a try sometime today and let you know how it works for me. One question though. What happens if someone tries to install it who doesn't have dbus installed? I have something in the configure script that disables all of my code if dbus is not found but I'm not sure how all of this would work in a PPA. Forgive my lack of knowledge on how a PPA works. -Soren On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 3:17 AM, Mat<matlinuxer2@...400...> wrote: > Good news... > > I just succeed to make a PPA for Soren's dbus branch, too. > Now I have successfully install it on my ubuntu qemu and works. > Here is the Ubuntu Links: > > https://launchpad.net/~matlinuxer2/+archive/ppa > > This binary contains both Soren's and my work of dbus implementation. > So, there will be two dbus interface after launching inkscape > ( can use some dbus debugger like d-feet ) > > I put my script and patch here: > http://code.google.com/p/inkboardng/source/browse/trunk/scripts/ubuntu/ > > :-) > > sincerely, Mat. >
