Package: gnome-pilot
Version: 2.0.10-6.1
Severity: normal
When setting up gnome-pilot, the dialog box only accepts something
like /dev/[a-zA-Z]+[0-9]* as device name.
This makes it impossible to
a) Use user specific names for USB devices like /dev/foo-pilot and
/dev/bar-pilot for the users foo and bar, respectively.
In the age of udev, I suggest accepting much different device
names.
b) As described on
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-pilot-list/2004-June/msg00027.html
it seems that for netsync to work, the same problem applies,
because for net sync the device name isn't "/dev/something" at
all but "net:".
Suggested fixes:
a) No restriction for devices the user types in. However, keep a
number of common options to choose from (like /dev/pilot, net:,
/dev/ttyS0, /dev/ttyUSB1, etc.)
b) Restrict device name depending on connection type (Serial, USB,
IRDA, Network). Probably difficult to handle all conceivable
eventualities.
