| OvenWerks | zequence: getting things to work in ubuntustudio-install with packages on the commandline was much harder. I finally gave up on bash and have moved to perl. perl deal much nicer with strings than bash does. | 02:38 |
|---|---|---|
| OvenWerks | ubuntustudio-install now takes packages on the commandline checks to see if they exist in the repos the system knows about, grabs the description at the same time... | 02:40 |
| OvenWerks | then creates the selection dialog and installs whatever the user has selected. | 02:41 |
| OvenWerks | The install progress screen is writen in perl, so no new depends are added as I am not using any special perl modules or extras. | 02:42 |
| OvenWerks | (30 lines of code, 20 lines of comments) | 02:50 |
| OvenWerks | zequence: new branch: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev/ubuntustudio/ubuntustudio-installer | 03:37 |
| OvenWerks | zequence: I have uploaded ubuntustudio-installer to my ppa so I can see how it builds and installs. | 04:33 |
| OvenWerks | It is missing an icon for the desktop file... I'll work on that unless one of our artists beats me to it :) | 04:35 |
| zequence | OvenWerks: Nice. I'll try it out tomorrow | 06:33 |
| zequence | We also need to do something about -controls before feature freeze. My idea right now is to do a quick rewrite of it | 06:33 |
| zequence | make it a simple indicator app, with launchers to system settings and your installer | 06:33 |
| OvenWerks | zequence: sure, I was thinking that a generic uninstaller might be nice too. | 14:23 |
| OvenWerks | (as in a generic kernel uninstaller) | 14:38 |
| OvenWerks | but we should fix grub to default to low latency anyway. | 14:39 |
| OvenWerks | Hmm, if a package/meta is already installed, I should probably not list it :) | 15:05 |
| OvenWerks | It doesn't hurt anything to list already installed stuff... makes easier testing. I will put a switch in my code to turn it off and on. | 15:07 |
| holstein | OvenWerks: its just like... | 22:54 |
| OvenWerks | Ya I know. | 22:54 |
| holstein | "i want to help!, how can i help?!" | 22:54 |
| holstein | and the first thing on the list is /join this channel ;) | 22:54 |
| holstein | whatevs... | 22:55 |
| holstein | you never know | 22:55 |
| holstein | they might test iso's | 22:55 |
| holstein | that would be helpful | 22:55 |
| OvenWerks | smartboyhw started that way too. | 22:55 |
| holstein | yup | 22:55 |
| holstein | and he's quite helpful | 22:55 |
