| 1004_add-http-proxy-option.patch | Add command-line option to set the HTTP proxy This option will be used to properly fix the Debian bug #651065. |
Raphal Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> | no | debian | vendor | |
| 1005_use-var-lib-dropbox.patch | Use /var/lib/dropbox instead of $HOME The binary files should be downloaded only once on the system and in a common place for all users. . Furthermore the downloaded files must be owned by the root user. The upstream tarball contains improper owner/group information (corresponding to a "releng" user/group with UID 1000 and GID 1002). |
Raphal Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> | no | vendor | ||
| 1006_use-pkexec-to-get-root-rights.patch | Use pkexec to execute Dropbox's installation as root When the user has to install the missing Dropbox software, we call pkexec to try to get the required root rights. |
Raphal Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> | no | |||
| 2001_non-interactive-update.patch | Ensure console variant of dropbox update is non-interactive This is because "dropbox update" is called from the postinst of the package and we don't want any interactivity there. . This is a Debian specific patch and probably should not be forwarded. |
Raphal Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> | not-needed | vendor | ||
| 2002_use-dpkg-to-select-platform.patch | Use dpkg to identify the architecture to use The upstream check is not reliable because if you run i386 with a 64 bit kernel, you download the wrong binaries. . This patch is Debian specific since it relies on dpkg and thus can't be upstreamed. |
Raphal Hertzog <hertzog@debian.org> | not-needed | vendor | ||
