Jungle Disk 1.46 Released
Jungle Disk 1.46 is now available for download. This version adds some significant improvements and highly requested features. New features in this version include:
- Support for archiving previous versions and deleted files
This works for both the built-in automatic backup and the mapped drive and lets you have a “Time Machine” like history of your changes (albeit without the spiffy graphics) - New restore dialog for easily restoring large numbers of files or previous versions
- Option to password protect the software - either the configuration only or the entire application
- Option to run backup cleanup on each backup run
- Improved support for launching web browser on Linux
- Automatically show network servers on desktop on Leopard
- All new online Manual covering all of the software features.
We’ve also made some changes to the Jungle Disk Encryption feature, see yesterday’s blog post for more info. For a full list of changes please see the release notes.
The next major release will bring the ability to do block-level file updates, upload resume, and optional web access to your files. More details coming soon!

Sounds great. One issue I’ve experienced is that you seem to cache each file before uploading it. This can be a problem if the files are large.

“…web access to your files.”
Sounds great!

I am interested in packaging jungledisk for a customer so that it is available for CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Now as a packager I have a few suggestions to make this easier.
1. version the tarball so that we can automatically download newer versions (and not end up with the same files)
2. add the documentation, release notes, license, faq, sample jungledisk config files and other useful information to the tarball
3. announce new releases to freshmeat so we can track new releases like we do with all software
And I have a few tips for the jungledisk program itself:
4. Add –help, –verbose and –version options
5. Create an option to run it in foreground mode and show errors to the console
6. Make the logfile line-based and only write out useful information (no markers and other stuff)
A preliminary package will be available from:

when it is ready. Thanks in advance !

This version has many improvments.
Password protection was needed. Thanks!
Small bug, web access home page shows:
Jungle Disk Web Access (Beta)
as on 1.45 Beta version
It is an honour for all of us to have Dag Wieers interested in packaging Jungledisk. But, is the code under GPL?
Will davfs2 and fuse be included as dependencies?

[…] Jungle Disk 1.46 has been released. It adds support for file archiving ad automated cleanups. While I liked Jungle Disk I still haven’t found a regular use for it so I haven’t tried the update. […]

Dag - thanks for creating the packages. We’ll look into implementing your suggestions for the next release and getting the software on FM.
