Hi all,

Some news about klikutils. I have recently changed the way how klikutils is
called to offer an easy way to the end-user to sandbox an application into a
private directory. It's just for testing purpose of course.

If you create a <what you want>.jail directory on the Desktop (or even
several), klikutils will ask you on startup if you want to jail your
application into this one. With that, everything will be put into this
specific directory and nothing will be modified from your own data.

A bad news is that it seems, for the moment, impossible to put data into an
iso file mounted in loopback. Mountlo is not mature enough for the moment i
fear. So the solution of a directory is a workaround.

An another change is that you can put the klikutils directory into your own
private directory.

For example, on Ubuntu/Kubuntu :

# cd ~
# tar xzvf ~/Desktop/klikutils-static-20070629_2.tgz
# sudo chown root:root .klikutils/bin/fusermount
# sudo chmod 4755 .klikutils/bin/fusermount

If you are under KDE, you can update the menu files by
running .klikutils/install_menu_kde.sh to avoid to have to call an
application from a command line.

You can download the last version on http://lionel.tricon.free.fr/KLIK/ as
usual. Don't hesitate to test it ; it works well on Kubuntu 7.04 and suse
10.1

Have a good week-end,
Lionel
