Ubuntu Karmic users: please note that gdebi bug #393381 will cause manual installation to fail with:

dpkg: unable to read filedescriptor flags for <package status and descriptor>: bad file descriptor

This can be fixed by upgrading python-vte. If you can't do that, use the PPA.

Archlinux Users can build it via the user repository: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=30974

Hi,

Thanks

Since it's a file manager extension, I'm not sure what we'd actually put under a desktop menu…

@sohail: after adding the ppa source, you need to install the program via “System” –> “Administration” –> “Synaptic Package Manager”. Search for 'rabbit' and you will see it in the list.

Could you include download links for the source packages, e.g. SRPMs?

Adam Plumb, 2009/12/07 19:54

For SRPMS please write to our rabbitvcs-devel mailing list and our resident Fedora packager (Juan) should get back to you.

Bruce van der Kooij, 2010/01/11 22:42

Do you need something more than the .spec file (which you can find at http://rabbitvcs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/packages/fedora/)?

No RabbitVCS Menu Icons?

If you notice that the RabbitVCS menu icons are not showing up, this is actually the result of a decision by GNOME upstream to cease displaying icons in menus by default.

You can change this behaviour by right clicking on the desktop, then select “Change Desktop Background” » Interface » Show Icons in Menus

…or try running:

gconftool-2 –type bool –set /desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons true

(You can also use Applications > System Tools > Configuration editor, browse to that key and check the box.)

See the RabbitVCS bug report and the original GNOME bug report for more details.

I installed from ppa:rabbitvcs/ppa and work perfectly on my Ubuntu Karmic :)
Great tool!
Thank you guys ;)

Just following the instructions wasn't enough, logging out and in didn't give me the context menus. I needed to really restart ubuntu, then it worked.
