SBAC and 14.04

<< < (2/3) > >>

pyperdown:
FWIW, this works in our mixed 1.04/2.11 environment

this is the update.sh script fragment.

if ! apt-cache policy sbac | grep -v "6.3-1"
then
        echo "20" ; sleep 1
        echo "Installing new SBAC browser" ; sleep 1

        if grep -i "ubermix 2" /etc/lsb-release
        then
                echo "Installing 32 bit libraries"
                apt-get install libgtk2.0-0:i386 libstdc++6:i386 libasound2:i386 libdbus-glib-1-2:i386 libxt6:i386 libncurses5:i386 sox:i386 -y
        fi

        wget -N $WEBSERVER/sbac_6.3-1_i386.deb
        dpkg -i sbac_6.3-1_i386.deb
fi

Install for 6.5 on ubermix 2 is now available http://blog.ubermix.org/2015/01/caaspp-secure-browser-for-test.html

We're in Vermont and use the SBAC test. I see that this site refers to the browser as "for state testing in California". Is it the same browser that will be used in other states? Will you be making a package with new 6.5 browser for .deb as you did with 6.3.1?

Thanks,

California has a specific browser for CA - although it looks like it's pretty much the same. I can build a package of the generic one as well - give me a few days to work on that.

Thanks! I was at an SBAC training meeting this morning and they assured me that they did not expect to have any updates to the Secure Browser -- that it would be a once-a-year only release. We'll see, but it seems that the package would be good for this year.

Will the package include the required libraries: Festival and SoX
as listed at: http://vt.portal.airast.org/secure-browsers/  ?

Or maybe they're already in the UberMix install - I see that Verdana TrueType font is. Looking at the Software Center it seems like maybe Festival is but sox is not.

Thanks,
