Bug Description

Binary package hint: prey

Please update the prey package to v.0.5.3.

The 0.5.x brings (this list includes only Linux specific changes):

# Offline actions support: You can now force the actions to be kept running even if the device goes offline.
# Windows Lock binary rewritten in C#. Better focus management. Task Manager disabling works as it should in XP and Vista/7 as well. As we’re not bundling WinLock.dll any more, there shouldn’t be any more false positives.
# New strategy for capturing webcam shots in Linux (waaay better image quality and lightness). Thanks to everyone who helped on this.
# Linux: Change the delay to give wifi time to work when using autoconnect (thanks Drew!)
# Linux: When using autoconnect mode in the config, Prey will use the network with the strongest signal available (again, thanks Drew!)
# Fixed file sending in SCP mode (screenshot, picture). (#76)
# Removed rubbish on Mac/Linux log files.
# Linux: Fixed Wifi device getting (using iwconfig now).
# Linux: Lock module should work on distros with Python 3 installed.

V.0.5.2's biggest change is that it can be run without root.

Hi there,

If you want this backported then we'll need confirmation that it builds, installs and runs on natty. You can use 'prevu' for this.

Cheers,
Iain
