Synchronizer

[jan]

Hi,

I have made a probably unpopular decision:
I'm going to disable the build of the Synchronizer by default because
it's unmaintained (I don't have the time - sorry).
There are several open bugs, one of them causing data loss:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=270150
I've started working on a fix for this, but it involves a considerable
amount of changes that should be reviewed.
Doing this, I also came to the conclusion that the Synchronizer needs a
general overhaul and review.
So, I don't consider it ready to be shipped in the upcoming release.
I plan to modularize Krusader more in the future, probably making the
Synchronizer a standalone, which will hopefully make it easier for
someone else to work on it.

Good call. I don't use it and probably still wouldn't if I had the gadgets to do
it with. Like you said too, it will be far easier for someone else to work on it
separately on its own.

Hi,

This will make Krusader not very useful for me, but I can live with it
if the compilation can be easily switched on. ;)

I will add the corresponding warning into handbook as soon as the
Synchronizer is removed.

Best regards,
Yuri

Hi Yuri,

The compilation will be togglable via cmake variable.
But I suggest using another tool that's actively maintained for
synchronizing valuable data.
