Description Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2008-04-09 13:09:10 UTC
obex-data-server 0.3.1 was released on April first. It's ABI/API compatible with 0.3.0 and only contains bug fixes. We should definitely upgrade.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Comment 1 Tadas Dailyda 2008-06-25 22:09:01 UTC
Just released obex-data-server-0.3.2. It's one more bugfix release API compatible with 0.3. Many serious memleaks were fixed and OBEX FTP now works with crippled Nokia devices. No build changes, just bump the version.
Comment 2 Tadas Dailyda 2008-06-27 17:28:14 UTC
obex-data-server-0.3.3 released.
Comment 3 Dennis Schridde 2008-10-05 09:20:35 UTC
obex-data-server-0.3.4 released 3 months ago.

I'm using obex-data-server 0.3.4 in a production environment for about a month now. It's under heavy use and proves itself to be stable. We should definitely add it to the tree. Bumping the 0.3.2 ebuild to 0.3.4 works flawless.
Comment 6 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2008-11-01 16:34:55 UTC
Note: The obex-data-server 0.4 series is API incompatible with the 0.3 series. But the 0.3 series does not support bluez 4.

I asked the upstream author to become a proxy maintainer and he originally was positive about it but haven't heard from him since.
Comment 8 Christoph Brill (egore) (RESIGNED) 2008-11-08 10:54:41 UTC
obex-data-server 0.4.2 is in portage (thanks to Alin Năstac). those who need 0.3 series can stick to 0.3.2 (stable enough). others should upgrade to 0.4.2
Comment 9 Tadas Dailyda 2008-11-08 12:03:29 UTC
Though 0.3.2 is stable enough it contains two very bad bugs which are fixed 0.3.4:
1) Sends garbled filenames to remote devices (UTF16 conversion bug)
2) Leaves some sockets opened

So I would recommend bumping 0.3.2 to 0.3.4 anyway.
