pygtk help!

[emorrp1]

I didn't like the way mintUpload uses saved plain-text passwords in its service config files, so I've implemented a fix to prompt for passwords, but the dialog box isn't drawn with a border in my new version. I've tried to understand the glade/pygtk setup, but I can't seem to enable the window border. Can anyone help?

mintUpload v2.1 is in the community repository (implemented ssh/sftp/scp support) now, and works fine as far as I've tested it.
my edited version for the passwords is available from: http://www.srcf.ucam.org/~pem34/mintupload-2.1.tar.gz
NB you'll need to edit line 437 of mintUpload.py to point to your download location.

Have you contacted the community repo gang?

We are grateful for the contributions there
Oh - you can't have the download location hardcoded in python

ok, thanks, will repost on the mailing list.

Not sure what you meant by you can't have the download location hardcoded in Python. The line I pointed out needs editing is just to make sure it uses the "new" version of the glade file, rather than the installed version (which is "hardcoded" to /usr/lib in line 294)

This undoubtedly looks like a hardcoded location
I have not read the script

1st you shouldn't have to edit the python code after install.
Any updates will over write this.
It should be in the services file, just like ftp.
2nd there is a newer package in the community repo with ssh/sftp access.
This is the latest package so you'll need to get with the other 2 working with mintUpload here.

This way you all have the latest package and code.
3rd thanks for the time spent working on this.

I agree with the no post-install editing, this is not ready for release, I just wanted to keep the installed and in progress versions separate. When it is ready I'll remove the reference to a download location, as it'll just use the new files installed into /usr/lib. This version detects an absence of a specified password in the services file, and compensates by prompting for a password, sorry if I wasn't clear in my original post. I am aware of the new package, as I uploaded it !
