I've added some details on how nautilus access the feature in the 'Background information' section
** Description changed: [Availability] The package wsdd is already in Ubuntu universe. The package wsdd build for the architectures it is designed to work on. It currently builds and works for architectures: amd64 as a python arch-all package Link to package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wsdd [Rationale] - The package wsdd is required in Ubuntu main for enabling win10 shares discovery in nautilus. - The package wsdd will generally be useful for a large part of our user base - There is no other/better way to solve this that is already in main or should go universe->main instead of this. - The binary package wssd needs to be in main to achieve shares enumeration in gvfs/nautilus. We don't plan to install wsdd-server which will stay in universe. - The package wsdd is required in Ubuntu main no later than August 15th due to Oracular feature freeze. [Security] - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin` - Package does install an user service which is going to be started by the corresponding gvfs backend - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024). - Package does not expose any external endpoints - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software [Quality assurance - function/usage] - The package works well right after install [Quality assurance - maintenance] - The package is maintained well in Debian/Ubuntu/Upstream and does only has a wishlist request open in Debian and minor bugs upstream - Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wsdd/+bug - Debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=wsdd - Upstream's bug tracker, https://github.com/christgau/wsdd/issues - The package has no important open bugs - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support [Quality assurance - testing] - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails it makes the build fail, link to build log 1ubuntu1 TOFIX: we need to enable some autopkgtests TODO-A: - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on TODO-A: this TBD list of architectures, link to test logs TBD TODO-B: - The package does not run an autopkgtest because TBD TODO-A: - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now TODO-B: - The package does have failing autopkgtests tests right now, but since TODO-B: they always failed they are handled as "ignored failure", this is TODO-B: ok because TBD [Quality assurance - packaging] - debian/watch is present and works - debian/control has a valid Maintainer definition - This package has no lintian warnings - Lintian overrides are not present - This package does not rely on obsolete or about to be demoted packages. - This package has no python2 or GTK2 dependencies - The package will be installed by default, but does not ask debconf questions - Packaging and build is easy, https://salsa.debian.org/grantma/wsdd/-/blob/master/debian/rules [UI standards] - Application is not end-user facing (does not need translation) [Dependencies] - No further depends or recommends dependencies that are not yet in main [Standards compliance] - This package correctly follows FHS and Debian Policy [Maintenance/Owner] - The owning team will be desktop-packages and I have their acknowledgement for that commitment - The future owning team is already subscribed to the package - This does not use static builds - This does not use vendored code - This package is not rust based - The package has been built in the archive more recently than the last test rebuild [Background information] The Package description explains the package well Upstream Name is wsdd Link to upstream project https://github.com/christgau/wsdd + + The desktop integration is done via a gvfs service (/usr/libexec/gvfsd- + wsdd), which is already enabled in the Noble package but requires the + wsdd backend to be installed to do anything. + + The backend was added in + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/-/merge_requests/186 + + The shares listed by that services are added to the network backend and + listed in the corresponding nautilus section (in the 'other locations' + entry of the sidebar) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2070025 Title: [MIR] wsdd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wsdd/+bug/2070025/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
