The update will break the gallery; however there is a
workaround. Before you run the upgrade from
http://<host>/gallery2/upgrade, you need to add the following
symlink
ln -s /usr/share/php/Smarty /usr/share/gallery2/lib/smarty
If you have already run the upgrade, you can still just add
the symlink and it will work. I only say to add it before, to
minimize the system check errors.
After the symlink is added, the upgrade system checks detect 3
files missing (2 documentation files and a jar file,
g2_db2.jar) and 2 modified (Smarty_Compiler.class.php and
modifier.debug_print_var.php). These do not seem to present
an issue.
As far as I can tell, everything is working after the symlink
was created.
Unless I am missing something, it seems to be impossible
to upload pictures without the remote module. I was only able to
upload my pictures via digikam, after manually installing the remote
module.
It looked like gallery2-remote was obsoleted by gallery2-2.3-1 and the
file was there:
rpm -qf /usr/share/gallery2/modules/remote/ItemAddGalleryRemote.inc
gallery2-remote-2.3-1.fc10.noarch
Now it's gone from 2.3-7 and later. Not fixed with the Smarty fix
that's in 2.3-11 that's in Koji. This sucks. I can't even add local
items, I immediately get an "invalid path" error that this file is not
found. Filing a bugzilla on this one now.
Looks like it got pulled due to a requirement for "nonredistributable
jars" but it screws me over royally. As soon as I click on "Add Items
to Album" it blows chunks and I have no idea what to do about it. I'm
rebuilding the RPM's right now with the "rm -rf remote" commented out.
I don't really use the remote protocol but it sucks getting screwed over
like this by a build "upgrade".
I also tried using webdav, but nautilus from F10 is not able to
access
webdav shares: bugzilla #458892
I can access webdav by connecting to the server under Gnome. If you
need to use SSL (which I do) it's a little tricky. I had to add some
helper file, IIRC. Web search turned up that trick.
Therefore, I think that this new release (to cope with legal issues)
has some regressions, which are difficult to deal with.
THAT's putting it mildly.
