0.0.2 (04.06.2009) -) fix problem with spaces in filename -) fix complete path inclusion in zip file
Hi,
I have written a new install script for kfilefactory. This script will enable all the users to use kfilefactory. There won't be need of copying the file in the home of each and every user but how do I add this script to the existing code archive?
Also please include a license like GPL with your code archive so that I can make a request to include the rpm of kfilefactory in fedora repository.
Please change the Exec= line in the kfilefactory.desktop file to make sure the right kfilefactory script gets executed. Besides please use the newest version available (0.1.1) or are there any problems I am not aware of?
There is no need to execute the install script as the spec file installs the application in rpm not the script.
I actually packaged it a few days ago so have used 1.0. I will update it once the current rpm is accepted into fedora repository.
In the RPM you packaged the kfilefactory.desktop includes the line "Exec=${HOME}/.kde/bin/kfilefactory.pl "%F"" but the executeable is located in /usr/libexec/kde4/kfilefactory .
This looks real handy. Any plans to integrate into dolphin? Seems konqueror is rarely used as a file manager these days.
Alternatively, a widgit to drop onto would be handy. some exist for images already...
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for your feedback! (:
I just added support for dolphin. I have only been able to test it within kde3. So if you have kde4 installed please report back.
Hi,
I just tried it for Fedora 12 on Dolphin. It is not working for me.
~/.kde/bin/ and ~/.kde/share/apps/dolphin/servicemenus/ does not exist. I created these folder and copied the files but still no change.

Please send me a patch or pull request on github. http://github.com/ra--/kfilefactory
I have requested a pull at github. Check it out and let me know if there are any issues :)
Hey it worked on fedora 12 kde spin. I can package it to create an rpm, if you want.
Great. Go for it! (:
The rpm package is up at http://adimania.fedorapeople.org/rpms/kfilefactory-0.1.0-1.fc12.noarch.rpm

I had updated the rpm. Sorry, forgot to inform you. Check it out now and let me know if i am missing something.
The updated RPM looks good to me. Thanks for packaging!

Will give it a go on kuuntu 9.10 beta next weekend.

Thanks for the feedback. I have updated the script to work for KDE3 and KJDE4 and will upload it. Please test and report if it works for you too. (:
It would be nice if you include a license with the code archive.
Good idea. A license file will be added in the next version.
