Need default url for updater - patch0048

Description
With the switch to microformat in DX3 you need to pre-populate ~/.gconf/desktop/sugar/updater_url with a url for the webpage. Otherwise software update in CP just hangs with fetching update information. Also of note is sugar-update-control has the ability to alter the url. Not sure if your able to do that with this version yet.

After setting gconf value to: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/OLPCAU/11.3.1 the activity-updater crashes due to the use of dotted-activities, micro-shell.log attached.

Changed the value from a number to a string, and it works. Patch attached

The problem now becomes it appears that older activities on the above wiki will overwrite higher versions of the same activities already installed. On a plus note new activities are not selected but default.

The fix for the inverted behaviour

Think we can get this into sugar 95.3?

Think there should be a way to alter the url like sugar-update-control has, as not having to mess with gconftool-2 to alter the url.

- Cc dsd sridhar added
cc'ing dsd, sridhar. Think if this gets resolved, sugar-update-control can go away for sugar 0.96.

- Cc sascha_silbe added
- Distribution/OS changed from Unspecified to Dextrose
Adding Sascha to include diffs attached to this ticket to modify the appropriate patch in patchset.
About changing the url, until such functionality is provided, the gconf needs to be pre-populated within the dx3 patchset.
Thanks for the ticket!

Dextrose-3 is no longer using its own microformat updater for the time being, reducing the severity:priority of this bug. (We'd still want it to be included in the longer run, or in places where we don't use proxy networks).
In any case, this bug is fixed, since the default url for the updater _is_ now set correctly.
