Bug Description

Bzr should have a nautilus integration similar to Tortoise under Windows.

- Most operation should be available with the right click menu when in a bzr repository.
- Emblems on files and folders should reflect the status (unknwown, up-to-date, modified, added, ...)
- Everywhere, it should be possible to create a repository in a folder with a right clic

There is a tool called nautilus-bzr bundled with bzr-gtk. Have you tried it? (Unfortunately it's painfully slow on big working trees, because of Nautilus' polling mechanism.)

I've seen that it exists but it is disabled in Ubuntu and I thought that was because it was not functionnal.

If bzr-gtk is functionnal then it should be enabled in Ubuntu (maybe in a separate bzr-nautilus package) and this bug (I would say "request") only applies to the bzr-gtk ubuntu package.

Yes, this is the same bug as 501597 in Debian; I've marked it as such.

It's actually a python-nautilus bug, since that changed the directory it loads python plugins from.

How can I re-enable it? Is it simply just a matter of copying some files, or do I just wait for 0.96?

Install python-nautilus and experimental bzr-gtk (http://packages.debian.org/experimental/all/bzr-gtk/download)

Dundee: I can confirm that the Nautilus integration stuff works with the package from Debian Experimental after installing it and restarting Nautilus. Emblems and context menu options are visible for all bzr repositories.

I also notice that there is no longer a bzr-notify icon in the notification area with that version. I assume it only appears now when there is actually a notification to present.

Unless the previous is a bug, I have had no problems so far.

I agree. Bzr-Nautilus integration works fine in Inrepid. I suggest marking bug as resolved (closed).

I've downloaded this package but nothing happens. Should i somehow "enable" it?

You just need to install: bzr, python-nautilus and experiamental bzr-gtk (http://packages.debian.org/experimental/all/bzr-gtk/download). Then restart computer.

But I discourage you of doing this, because Nautilus is then really slow when browsing among bzr repos. I advice you to use console commands and olive-gtk.

Dundee > for some strange reason, it doesn't seems to be that related to the size of your bzr repository.

I'm using it at work with quite a lot bzr repositories, some of them are big, and a lot of svn repositories that I use through bzr-svn : I've no problem at all (except that nautilus is a bit slower when entering those folder but that's not really a problem)

On my home computer, with only a couple of small bzr repositories, nautilus is not useable anymore. Every action, even on the desktop where there is no bzr repository, takes ages and it fill my memory. After a few action, my swap is filled and I have to kill nautilus.

Both computer are running the latest up-to-date intrepid with bzr-gtk from debian-experimental. So it's really really strange.
