Fixed mantis2trac.py

[licho@…]

Adding fixed and upgraded mantis2trac.py

Versions from trac and trac hacks sites were not working properly.

This fixed version was tested extensively against python 2.4, trac 0.11dev, and mantis 1.0.6

How does this relate to  TH:MantisImportScript?

I had errors using the mantis2trac.py script that was available in the trac and trac-hacks repositories. They both are v1.3 in the comments at the top of the file. Version 1.3 from the repositories had errors when trying to go to MySQL. Version 1.3 worked when I tried it with PySQLite but I wanted to use MySQL. I am converting from Mantis 1.1.1

The attachment above on this ticket contains a v1.4 that I found worked. It is actually not a patch but the complete file. Someone needs to commit this version into the repository.

I got the file by selecting all the lines of the attachment as it was displayed. Then I pasted it into xemacs and did a "kill-rectangle" on the line numbers. I also had to remove a trailing space behind two continued lines "\ " for it to work.

I added a similar comment to ticket 2009 on the Trac hack page.  http://trac-hacks.org/ticket/2009

This is the configuration that I have working:

Trac:   	0.11rc1
Python: 	2.5.1 (r251:54863, Sep 21 2007, 22:46:31) [GCC 4.2.1 (SUSE Linux)]
setuptools: 	0.6c8
MySQL: 	server: "5.0.45", client: "5.0.45", thread-safe: 0
MySQLdb: 	1.2.2
Genshi: 	0.4.4
mod_python: 	3.3.1
Subversion: 	1.4.4 (r25188)
jQuery:	        1.2.3

mantis converter breaks timeline

[dsvensson@…]

The patch is broken. It works better than the one found at track-hacks, but it doesn't handle WTF-8 conversion that well. The converted data breaks the timeline page.
