Please backport brasero CD burning tool and libburn4+libisofs4 from Ubuntu Gutsy

Will look into it

here are some testing backports, built by prevu. Let me know how they work, as I don't have any Dapper boxes with a burner.

After a bit of livecd coaxing, I managed to burn a data project using a dapper livecd and this backport, before the livecd noticed that I forced the tray open and crashes on me.

Bottom line, it works and is approved for backporting. Oh yeah, and don't try this at home :)

 * Trying to backport brasero...
  - <brasero_0.4.4.orig.tar.gz: downloading from librarian>
  - <brasero_0.4.4-0ubuntu1.diff.gz: downloading from librarian>
  - <brasero_0.4.4-0ubuntu1.dsc: downloading from librarian>
I: Extracting brasero_0.4.4-0ubuntu1.dsc ... done.
I: Building backport of brasero-0.4.4 ... done.

Please, don't recject Baltix bugs, which are assigned to Baltix by Baltix developers ;)

Apologies, I don't have a list of Baltix developers -- IME they're mostly assigned to Baltix by people who can't drive the drop-down properly ;)

Brasero backport failed to build, since it needs gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.14.2, and only 2.14.1 is in dapper (2.14.2 is in dapper-updates).

Afaik, the author sets gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.14.2 because some freezes could happen when adding to the project some files from a network (ftp) directory using 2.14.1 version.

So it would need to patch configure scripts.
Is a backport still possible ?

I'm sorry, I didn't see this until now. I'll look into it.

This is also a packaging bug for brasero in Ubuntu... build-dep on libgnomevfs2-dev is >=2.14.1, but it should really be >=2.14.2... if 2.14.1 is present ./configure still dies.

New brasero can't be backported due to missing newer deps.

Please don't reject valid bugs,

As noted above, the brasero package needs (from configure) libgnomevfs2-dev >=2.14.2, whereas the package is B-D on >=2.14.1 - which is still the case, and a bug that needs fixing

prevu builds it installs it and it seems to work ( i dont have any media to test on)
so a +1 up here

I was able to back port this program from edgy to dapper 64 with out issue.

I posted before that it worked,and the bug was rejected.

Brasero from Edgy has already basically been backported to Dapper; it was the new upstream 0.5.x versions that I was interested in, which did not backport to Dapper.

John Dong brasero from edgy is not in any of the dapper repos. so i'm not sure where that info is coming from.

As for the 0.5.x version I have not tried to backport that,and it would seem that those who have tried say it needs a certain file.

   brasero | 0.4.4-0ubuntu1~dapper1 | dapper-backports/universe | source
   brasero | 0.4.4-0ubuntu2 | edgy/universe | source, i386

The source package is certainly there... but it appears like it has failed to build. I need to investigate exactly why it failed

Ok, it failed to build because gnome-vfs 2.14.2 from dapper-updates is required, but currently backports does not build against dapper-updates.

Can we do anything about this? Or should this bug be closed?

It should build now, just have to give-back it. Poke a build deity :D

Please gimme time to see if there are any issues with the gutsy package. Right now it seems that libisofs isn't a dependency of Brasero, which is IMHO weird, so I'll have to solve it first.

This and couple more bugs have been fixed. I believe newest Brasero package is good enough for a backport.

Sorry, does not backport.

-> Considering build-dep libburn4-dev (>= 0.3.4)
W: Unable to locate package libburn4-dev
E: No packages found
      Tried versions:
   -> Does not satisfy version, not trying
E: Could not satisfy build-dependency.

We know that the libburn package has to be backported first.

Brasero 0.6.0 and needed libisofs and libburn packages for Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty", backported from Ubuntu Gutsy (with help of new launchpad's Personal Package Archive system) are available at

http://ppa.dogfood.launchpad.net/mantas/ubuntu/pool/main/
( apt source is deb http://ppa.dogfood.launchpad.net/mantas/ubuntu/ feisty main )

Build logs are available at
https://dogfood.launchpad.net/~mantas/+archive/+builds?build_state=built

I will try to build these packages for Ubuntu 6.10 "Edgy" and 6.06 "Dapper"

[Expired for Dapper Backports because there has been no activity for 60 days.]

Feisty is EOL, Dapper desktop is EOL too.
