os.getlogin() unreliable about blender2ogre HOT 8 CLOSED

Same thing apparently applies to Linux too. I'm using Ubuntu 10.10

The error message reads 
(couldn't copy/paste so I had to retype it -- hopefully without typos)

File 
"/home/tomislav/bin/blender-2.56a-beta-linux-glibc27-x86_64/2.56/scripts/addons/

Attached fix did in fact fix it though. Thanks.

There's a newer version that fixes more issues that's on the ogre forums.

It includes a better fix than what I applied.

Cheers

Thanks once again. So the project is not updated here on Google Code any more? 
It looks like the Mercurial repo is empty too. Did the project migrated to some 
other site?

I do apologize for straying off-topic, but I'm guessing it won't do that much 
harm since this is the only issue report on this project. :)

As far as I know the initial version was uploaded here, however there have been 
community modifications that have been added and attached in the Ogre forums. I 
added the last minor fix listed in the forums today.

The original thread can be found here:

I'm not sure if the project has moved elsewhere. 

Thank you for you interest, and sorry for the lack of updates.

The project is still alive, and we are going to provide more updates on this 
google code project.
