Lost dropbox credentials

racy 5.3

Would be great to have an automatic login to dropbox - without having to login manually each time... call me lazy and perhaps a little liberal security wise - but this is a real pain in the butt!!

Full version remembers authorisation?

Any chance of a .pet?
The portable version doesn't work on racy complaining about fuse?

So Python 2.7.2 with pygtk it is

racy 522. I am compling python 2.7 and there are only packages for 2.6 that I could find. I tried with 3 with gtk 3 but couldn't get it all to work - I posted elsewhere about my experiences with that nightmare..

It doesn't seem quite a straightforward as you say:

I have:

Code: Select all

# pkg-config --modversion cairo
1.11.2
# pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
2.24.8
But there is no version of pycairo 1.11.2 - neither is there a version of pygobject of 2.24.8

pygobject-introspection

This looks like what I am after but I guess you are talking about the depreciated pygtk bindings for python 2.x .... have you tried to get python 3.x going with gobject-introspection and pygobject?

I have spent days trying to get this going!!

Compiling Python 3.2.2 with pygobject gobject-introspection

Has anyone done this? I was hoping to make a .pet or .sfs for everyone.... but can't do it :-( I have toiled and toiled at this using a fresh racy 522 with the devx - which has Python 2.6.4 in it as standard. I am keen to use Python with the new Pygobject bindings to Gtk but it is ridiculously hard ...

I have an appliication I would like to bundle with pupppy and this would seem a perfect solution. Is there a python 3 glib pygobject .pet around? I thought updating ...
