Description Róbert Čerňanský 2006-08-12 12:32:39 UTC

gscmxx-0.4.1-r1 does not work with latest scmxx-0.9.0 nor scmxx-0.8.2. It uses old parameters format to call scmxx.

gscmxx calls scmxx while loading addressbook, this way (checked with 'ps axww'):

/usr/bin/scmxx -d /dev/rfcomm1 -b 19200 --get --vcard=all --out -

This do not work and when tried to call it directly, it prints:

$ /usr/bin/scmxx -d /dev/rfcomm1 -b 19200 --get --vcard=all --out -
/usr/bin/scmxx: unrecognized option `--vcard=all'
Using "UTF-8" as system character set.
Accessing device /dev/rfcomm1...done
OK, a modem device is present.
Detected SIEMENS S55

Error: you must specifiy a valid memory type.



Correct and working call is:

scmxx --get --binary --mem vcf --out -


Latest scmxx that works with gscmxx for me was 0.7.5. I checked upstream a bit and it seems that gscmxx is not updated. Latest release is from 2002 and cvs activity is also in deep past.
