New J-Pilot version

Hi,

I released a new J-Pilot version, 2.02. It includes a sqlite3 plugin (thanks to Elmar Klausmeier) and a lot of small fixes and improvements (thanks David Malia, Pascal Jaeger, Morgan Kesler and anyone else I left out). I built packages for Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04 and uploaded them to package cloud.

The instructions from http://jpilot.org should work for jammy and noble (22.04 and 24.04).

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/judd/jpilot/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install jpilot jpilot-plugins

If you have a close distribution and want to force it you can do something like this.

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/judd/jpilot/script.deb.sh | sudo os=ubuntu dist=jammy bash
sudo apt install jpilot jpilot-plugins

At the moment I only have Ubuntu 18.04, 22.04 and 24.04 installed that I can use to build packages with. If you need something else let me know and if I have the time I will try to build a package for it.

Good morning Judd:

Thank you so much for maintaining J-Pilot and keeping it current.

... if I have the time I will try to build a package for it.

I'd appreciate your considering the possibility of building a *.deb package, if not for Debian

(which uses the infamous systemd) for Devuan which does not and uses sysvinit as the

default init software.

I still use J-Pilot 1.8.2 in Devuan Daedalus and am quite happy with it.

ie: Linux devuan 6.1.0-26-amd64 #1 Debian 6.1.112-1

The *only* problem I foresee is that (eventually) my Palms will die out but even so, J-Pilot will

without doubt continue to be my desktop organiser software.

Once again, tank you very much for your efforts.

Best,

JHM

Even from my side: Thank you so much for maintaining J-Pilot and keeping it current.

I just tested sudo apt upgrade on Ubuntu 24.04 (noble). It works fine.

Do you have a change log about the fixes?

Hello Judd,

Thank you for your great work!

Maybe you (or other experts) can build the package for Debian 12. At the moment, it does not work:

werner@desktop12:~$ sudo apt install jpilot jpilot-plugins
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done

Hello:

… package for Debian 12. At the moment, it does not work:

J-Pilot is not in the Debian 12 repositories which is why you cannot find it. ie: install / update it past the 1.8.2-2 release.

The last Debian repository in which it was present was Debian 10 / Buster.

According to the Debian package tracker page, jpilot was removed from Debian unstable and testing back in 08/2019.

It seems this was at the request of the previous maintainer, Ludovic Rousseau but I don’t know why.

jpilot was part of Debian until a few years ago.  It was removed from
unstable at the request of then-maintainer Ludovic Rousseau, back when
upstream maintenance had slowed and/or stopped.  (Please see:
https://bugs.debian.org/938958).


https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1020381

The thing is that it will not be in the Debian repositories again until it gets a new maintainer.

In my opinion, Judd is doing more than enough by keeping it current and up to date in for the Ubuntus.

That’s all I know/could find out about it.

Best,

JHM

What does sudo apt update return about the external source (not a PPA) from packagecloud ?

Does it accept the source?
