Hi Valerio,<br>

</div>I have had a look into packaging ReMoko for Debian. Here are some issues<br>
that you might want to look into, to make ReMoko easily packagable.<br>
<br>
* The setup.py could be improved. Have a look at [1], how I did this<br>
for zhone's setup.py.<br>
* It would be great if you could provide "official" source tarballs of<br>
your release. setup.py helps you with the sdist command, but you need to<br>
tell it what files it should include. Again, you can have a look at how<br>
Jan Lübbe did that for zhone at [2].<br>
* Your configuration module just looks for "settings.cfg", without<br>
specifying a path. Something like sys.env['HOME'] + "settings.cfg" might<br>
be more sensible.</blockquote>The ReMoko version on the svn is my work version, I know that I have relative path and also the setup.py is incomplete, and some other glitches remain there. Until 16 Set I can't take a look on that :(<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
* The server source looks good, "make dist" produces a sensible<br>
tarball. You might want to change the product name and version number in<br>
<a href="http://configure.ac" target="_blank">configure.ac</a> though.</blockquote><div>Thanks, I miss that one. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
* What exactly is the server for? It seems it listens on a tcp socket<br>
for commands, which is connected by the UI to send the events over<br>
bluetooth. Why don't you bind to the <a href="http://127.0.0.1" target="_blank">127.0.0.1</a> IP address? Why don't you<br>
use dbus for that?</blockquote>The server handles all the HID communications, is like a bridge for the client UI, I use a unix socket because the BlueZ devs recommend it to me, besides a dbus interface will be slower, because in the mouse profile I have to send every small movement (pixel by pixel).<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

I think it would be great to have a remoko Debian package, but there is<br>
some work left. Are you going to continue remoko development, now that<br>
GSoC is over?</blockquote><div>Yes, I already made more code, but right now I don't have time and concentration until I finish my last exam (16 Set) :(<br><br>Thanks for the tips.<br>I will get in touch with you after 16 Set.<br>
