From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20060202 Fedora/1.0.7-1.2.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: Rawhide contains openobex-1.0.1-4.2. Latest is openobex 1.1. See http://openobex.triq.net/downloads Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: rpm -q openobex Additional info:
Also, openobex-apps package is no longer needed and is out of date, as the applications are now included into openobex itself. To build them from openobex 1.1, run ./configure --enable-apps
Er, sorry about this, but... it looks like openobex-1.2 just came out. Updating summary accordingly.
too late for FC-5 ...
ping for fc5 post release...
I've done this independently, attaching my patch to the SPEC file Note that the old patches for openobex-apps are not included, I don't think they are neccessary (tehre is an extra obex_push application, but I think you can do that with obex_test and if you want a real implementation you probably need obex_ftp).
Created attachment 128880 [details] patch to upgrade to 1.2, compile apps from this src rpm, and include usb support Note that if libusb-devel is present USB support will be compiled, so it seems to make sense to make this a build requirement
obexfs (a FUSE filesystem on top of obexftp) is even better for transferring files to/from phones, as it would mount the phone contents as a real filesystem. It would look as if you just plugged in a thumb drive or inserted a CD. For USB access this could happen automatically on connection, but for Bluetooth access some sort of helper application that intergrates with KDE/GNOME bluetooth browsers is probably better.
Openobex 1.3 is out, so please update to that.
