Subversion Repository
If you want to stay with the bleeding edge development of lcd4linux, you may have a look at the SVN web interface.
To access the repository in a read-only way, you need a subversion client and the following instruction:
svn co https://ssl.bulix.org/svn/lcd4linux/trunk lcd4linux
This command will create a directory 'lcd4linux' for you, containing the current SVN code. If you want to update your local dir (which you should do on a regular basis), use the following command (inside the lcd4linux directory):
svn up
Subversion write access
If you are a developer and want to commit things into the repository, you need an account there. Choose a username and a password, and send us the output of
htpasswd2 -n -s <user>
(depending on your distribution, there may be no htpasswd2 command, but a htpasswd)
Firewall issues
Some firewalls - especially big corporate ones - block the WebDAV protocol used by svn, presumably due to security concerns. In such a situation the transaction will time-out with an error message such as
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/lcd4linux/trunk' >>> svn: PROPFIND of '/svn/lcd4linux/trunk': could not connect to server (https://ssl.bulix.org)
If you see this, take it up with the administrator of your firewall!
