It is currently hardcoded in setup.py to be 'allmydata-tahoe'. Ticket #556 is to make it configurable by a runtime command-line argument to setup.py: "--appname=foo", but I suddenly wondered if we really wanted that and at the same time realized that we don't need that for tahoe-1.3.0 release, so this patch just hardcodes it in setup.py. setup.py inspects a file named 'src/allmydata/_appname.py' and assert that it contains the string "__appname__ = 'allmydata-tahoe'", and creates it if it isn't already present. src/allmydata/__init__.py import _appname and reads __appname__ from it. The rest of the Python code imports allmydata and inspects "allmydata.__appname__", although actually every use it uses "allmydata.__full_version__" instead, where "allmydata.__full_version__" is created in src/allmydata/__init__.py to be: __full_version__ = __appname + '-' + str(__version__). All the code that emits an "application version string" when describing what version of a protocol it supports (introducer server, storage server, upload helper), or when describing itself in general (introducer client), usese allmydata.__full_version__. This fixes ticket #556 at least well enough for tahoe-1.3.0 release.
