Jonathan, sorry, but it dosen't work with 0.3.13 on Interpid nor in up-to-date
Hardy, IF, as Risto pointed out, the folder name contains "special" charaters
that the english users will never encounter: "ö" "õ" "ä" or "ü"
In Estonian the desktop folder is translated 'Töölaud' and any attempt to
install packages from there in Hardy or Interpid fail, so i did a little test,
made folders Töö, Tää; Tüü and Tõõ and every time when trying to istall a
package from there with gdebi-kde, it fails. Running it from Console shows the
following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo gdebi-kde /home/user/Tõõ/nxclient_3.2.0-14_i386.deb
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/apt/__init__.py:18: FutureWarning: apt API not
stable yet
warnings.warn("apt API not stable yet", FutureWarning)
Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-user" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/gdebi-kde", line 100, in <module>
afile = unicode(afile, 'utf-8')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 13-16: invalid
data
when installing it from the console from any of these folders with just
the command line 'gdebi' everything works as expected.
Please somebody look into this because this bug means that any Estonian
or Finnish user can install anything from their desktop folders in Hardy
nor Interpid, and this leaves an unpleasant experience.
