I'm looking for an SVN GUI that integrates into the file browser (Nautilus or Thunar). So far I've only found RabbitVCS for this, but I'm having trouble installing it. Yes, there are plenty of posts here about this, with plenty of tips, and I think I've tried them all - no success.
Here are my steps:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rabbitvcs/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y rabbitvcs-gedit rabbitvcs-cli
All of this executes fine, but then this line fails:
sudo apt-get install rabbitvcs-nautilus3
[...]
E: Package 'rabbitvcs-nautilus3' has no installation candidate
So instead I do:
sudo apt-get install -y rabbitvcs-nautilus
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1.0 /usr/lib/
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1 /usr/lib/
wget http://rabbitvcs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/clients/nautilus-3.0/RabbitVCS.py /usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER ~/.config/rabbitvcs
killall nautilus
I end with a system that correctly shows the overlay icons and correctly works on the CLI, but when I right-click any folder, the entry "RabbitVCS" is simply missing.
(It's also terribly annoying that the "clock icon" overlay is displayed on every damn file on my entire system - I only want overlays on actually versioned files.)
Is something broken with 15.04, or what is going on here? What did I miss? What did I do wrong?
Also, the gedit plugin seems to malfunction. When I try to enable the plugin in gedit by ticking the checkbox, the checkbox disappears and the plugin icon is replaced by a red stop sign.
