PaoloRotolo | Hi all! | 16:22 |

highvoltage | hi PaoloRotolo | 16:49 |
PaoloRotolo | Ehm, sorry, why "https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/gamedevelop/" isn't in Precise Pangoline? | 16:54 |
PaoloRotolo | It's a very good app ;) | 16:54 |
stgraber | looks like it's a commercial app, so not something the ARB can help with | 17:00 |
PaoloRotolo | stgraber, but was it submitted on http://developer.ubuntu.com/ | 17:14 |
PaoloRotolo | ? | 17:14 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: hey there. there are two groups who vet apps for inclusion in software center for post-release apps. one deals with non-fre apps, and one deals with free apps. the ARB deals with the free apps. | 17:15 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: what I suggest you do is check the myapps web interface and see if there's perhaps a feedback request. perhaps they need some more information from you | 17:15 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: otherwise it might be best to ask on the web interface to request the status of your application | 17:16 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: ah, according to https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/gamedevelop/ it's already available in Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric) | 17:17 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: I guess you checked in Precise? You have to submit myapp apps seperately for each Ubuntu release. | 17:17 |
PaoloRotolo | highvoltage, Hi, thanks for the help. But "gamedevelop" isn't a my application :) I saw it on this post http://developer.ubuntu.com/2012/05/top-10-ubuntu-app-downloads-for-april-2012/ | 17:17 |
PaoloRotolo | because I'm using Precise, it's possible to install it in precise too? | 17:18 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: I think it's possible to manually add the right software source for that and install it manually, but I don't think there's anyway to do it from software centre | 17:20 |
highvoltage | (not sure if SC sets up auth for no-cost non-free apps, if it does then I guess you can't) | 17:20 |
stgraber | you can trick software center into thinking you're on 11.10 | 17:22 |
stgraber | SOFTWARE_CENTER_DISTRO_CODENAME=oneiric software-center | 17:22 |
stgraber | I can then see gamedevelop in the UI | 17:22 |
PaoloRotolo | highvoltage stgraber , ok, thanks a lot :) | 17:23 |
PaoloRotolo | and sorry for my bad english: I'm italian :) | 17:24 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: try what stgraber said, it should work | 17:24 |
PaoloRotolo | highvoltage, stgraber, it works :D Thanks again! | 17:26 |
highvoltage | great | 17:26 |
PaoloRotolo | BTW, I have already uploaded some apps for the ARB. Now they are in Oneiric and Precise. Why gamedevelop was uploaded only for Oneiric? (it's a free app too) | 17:29 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: you don't have to pay for it, but it's a non-free license | 17:30 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian_Free_Software_Guidelines for what we mean when we talk about free software | 17:33 |
PaoloRotolo | highvoltage, oh, yes, I know. So only the open-source apps are uploaded from the ARB for all the Ubuntu versions? | 17:34 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: usually for the current stable ubuntu version. we try to encourage people to get them into the ubuntu archives as well so that they can be available for future releases | 17:35 |
PaoloRotolo | highvoltage, ok I understand, thanks :) | 17:36 |
highvoltage | PaoloRotolo: you're welcome | 17:37 |
malin | is this app approved soon? https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/782/ | 23:20 |
