Trac Genshi support working at all?

[Dirk Stöcker]

I tried to update an Trac instance from 1.2.x to 1.4 and now iniadminpanel plugin fails completely. I e.g. get "TemplateSyntaxError: unexpected char u'&' at 10166" from the Jinja code, whereas the template is genshi.

That I get Jinja errors for a Genshi template seems highly suspicious. I tried fixing them and only get more and more issues.

Confirm all panels return '*.html', data, None instead of return '*.html', data (wiki:TracDev/PortingFromGenshiToJinja#PanelProviders / r15459).

Maybe a note can be added to wiki:TracDev/ApiChanges/1.3#Genshioptionaldeprecated

[Dirk Stöcker]

That's incompatible to previous Trac versions, so the plugin fails for Trac < 1.4 which also means that any plugin with admin panels must be updated to work with Trac 1.4. The whole idea of remaining Genshi support was that this is not the case.

To support old and new Trac needs ​code like this

Genshi support also lacks support for updated TracInterfaceCustomization. The site_head.html is not applied for Genshi template. You still need to use the old-style stuff, but as far as I see that's nowhere documented, at least not in the documentation page.
