I don't understand what I'm doing, but here is a patch that adds aria-controls attribute that, according to a candidate recommendation (​http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-controls), is supposed to tell some software that the down/up arrow icon controls the header drop-down.

At least it *hopefully* doesn't break anything and doesn't add any requirements for more attributes.

On a fresh wheezy install with the normal mediagoblin dependencies as well as pkg-config and autoconf, I get the following error (and so do others on IRC):

cwebber@li313-33:~/mediagoblin$ ./bootstrap.sh && ./configure && make
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force 
autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool
autoreconf: running: /usr/bin/autoconf --force
configure.ac:152: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1

I'm not having this happen in Jessie, and IIRC I even had this working right in Wheezy. Some package must be missing? But without knowing what it is, we can't make this the official recommended way to set up MediaGoblin.

So, two steps:

• First of all, change the docs so that the pyconfigure route is marked as "experimental" for now.
• Figure out what's missing and document it!

I tried to upload this video : ​http://www.sturm.com.au/resources/stallman-software-freedom-day-low.ogv

The WebUI says the upload is completed, but the video doesn't appear anywhere.
