Package: positron
Version: 1:1.1-1
Severity: important
I just tried to sync using positron. It gave the following message:
# positron sync

OSError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/media/neuros/MUSIC'
After modifying /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/positron/config.py* to
replace "MUSIC" with "music", it now works better -- it now copies some
files.
AFAICT, when positron looks for the music directory, it does a
case-sensitive search. However, the FAT filesystem is case insensitive.
Since my Neuros has the directory /music instead of /MUSIC, positron
does not find the music directory, even though it is there, and when it
attempts to create it, it fails.
However, it still has some problems copying some files, even after the
change. On my Neuros, I have a directory /music/u2, while positron is
trying to create a directory /music/U2, and this is failing... (similar
error message as above.)
I deleted /music/u2, and now it is recopying that whole tree (although
for some reason the directory still gets created as "u2" rather than
"U2". So it seems to be working for now, until the next time I do a
sync, when it will attempt to create the /music/U2 directory again...
(I think that positron used to work correctly.)
