Capuchin is an open-source program that runs in the background, downloads and installs plugins. It can be used by any application through its D-Bus interface.

Capuchin 0.3.2 released

This release just fixes a bug in AppObject.Update
and stores repository files in $XDG_CACHE_HOME dir.

Download:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/capuchin/0.3/

Changes:

  • Emit Status and InstallFinished when calling AppObject.Update. 'INDEX' is used as plugin id.
  • Store repository XML files in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/capuchin or $HOME/.cache/capuchin. Log files are still stored in $HOME/.capuchin
  • Require ndesk-dbus

Capuchin 0.3.1 and capuchin-glib 0.1.1 released

Capuchin

In this release the behavior of AppObject's Update method changed.
It's now always called blocking, therefore the UpdateFinished signal
has been removed.

Download:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/capuchin/0.3/

Changes:
* Fixed bug that downloaded file will be deleted even if it's no archive
* Strip bad characters from object path
* Added support for Content-Disposition
* Made AppObject.Update a blocking call.
* Removed UpdateFinished signal, because it's not needed anymore.

Capuchin released

Capuchin replaces NewStuffManager and comes with a completely rewritten D-Bus daemon, new D-Bus API and slightly changed XML file format. In addition, C GLib bindings are now available as well. From know on you only need a XML file that represents your repository.
