[FFmpeg-devel] roundup help NEEDED!!!

[Luca Barbato]

Eventually managed to recover this email from my wretched email
client... In the mean time roundup should be usable both from the mailgw
and the web frontend, I guess some public reply is due.

Had been fixed, upstream had been asked to add this stupid problem in
the faq. For your curiosity: the roundup mail gateway picks up the same
logging configuration as the web frontend. While updating this
configuration had been set to spew everything to stderr so that it would
be presented in the apache log. It worked fine for the purpose.

Obviously I did not consider that postfix would consider the presence of
something on stderr as a failure... My fault for not checking that as well.

The hosting server had some strange issue so it had been decided to
avoid potential problems like having mod_python and mod_wsgi loaded at
the same time.

I was present on irc and asked people around to help me track remaining
problems.

Basically the roundup website with the usual migration info was out of
sync so I fixed annoyances on the go...

our roundup was stale more or less.

Had been updated to the latest stable, no patches.

I did. They had been helpful in pointing me to the up to date upgrade
document...
