reboot it, still no icon.

i can unison on n900 terminal; i usually unison from my pc or laptop, works for me.

thanks.

I've just started to want try Unison. Has it been added to a repository anywhere, or is this still the only source? TX

I don't think so, due to it being written in OCaml/LablGTK

Just the command line part would be good for me .

Its still in OCaml

Right, got it. All you have to do is point that out to me three or four times, it'll finally sink in . TX

Not that its not possible to get it in extras-devel, but it will remain there and I don't want to get OCaml in the repo, prefer someone more knowledgeable in that area to do it properly.

Hopefully someone rewrites it using something more mainstream like PyGTK or pyqt

How are you guys handling the problem of "different versions"?

You have a versio on your desktop and and older version on the N900. They don't talk to each other...

I have even suggested the author (upstream) to try to handle this situation, but I don't even know if he has read my message.

In order for unison client and server to talk to each other, the minor version has to match (for my binary posted above: 2.38). The reason for a version change is usually a change in the network protocol and/or unison-internal files.

In practice, that means that you need to update unison on all your machines at the same time, and that's also why I prefer a single binary on my local path rather than a repository where selecting a specific version is not intuitive. Not that I would mind if someone manages to get an automated build infrastructure for OCaml+GTK working...
