Tickets can't be moved and re-ordered within the backlog

[rjollos]

In Trac 0.11, the tickets cannot be moved and re-ordered in the backlog. There is an error in the javascript error console:

Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'outerWidth' 

The plugin is using jQuery UI 1.7.2, which requires jQuery 1.3 or possibly 1.3.2 (the version available on the ​downloads page is 1.7.3 which requires 1.3.2). Trac 0.11 provides jQuery 1.2.3.

[rjollos]

Trac 0.11.1 provides jQuery 1.2.6, which jQuery UI 1.6 is compatible with. Version 1.2.6 is the minimum required jQuery for jQuery UI 1.5 through 1.6. Trac 0.11.0 provides jQuery 1.2.3. I can't find a version of jQuery UI older than 1.5, so I'll set a minimum required Trac version of 0.11.1 for the BacklogPlugin.

#10732 is a related ticket for the AdminEnumListPlugin.

(In [12488]) Fixes #10325, Refs #10331, #10333:

• Added 3-Clause BSD license text.
• jQuery UI 1.8.23 is used in Trac 0.12 and later. jQuery UI 1.6 is used in Trac 0.11.1 through Trac 0.11.7 (Trac 0.11.1 is the minimum version supported by the plugin).
• Renamed BACKLOGS_VIEW permission to BACKLOG_VIEW.
• Combined code in backlog-rw.js and backlog-ro.js to backlog.js.
• Added skeleton code for an admin panel.
• Added skeleton for unit tests.

I believe that the checking version code in [12488], if trac_version > 0.12:, does not work.

We can use pkg_resouces.parse_version for comparison the versions. See also ​http://packages.python.org/distribute/pkg_resources.html#parsing-utilities and ​trac:source:trunk/trac/mimeview/tests/pygments.py?rev=11493#L84.

Thanks, it never seemed quite right to me, so I'm happy to know a better way now. I'll apply this patch and also take a look at #10732 this weekend.

BTW, sortable widget works well with Trac 0.12.5, however, it doesn't work with Trac 0.11.7. I got the following on Firefox.

Timestamp: 2013-03-14 03:05:54
Error: TypeError: (intermediate value)(...) is not a function

To replace with ​http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.6/jquery-ui.min.js, it works.

[rjollos]

Ah, thanks. I guess we should pull down a new copy of jQuery 1.6. Feel free to commit any changes if you have something staged locally, and I'll try to get around to this eventually ;)
