| willem | flocculant, didn know about https://wiki.xubuntu.org/qa/isotesting yet. Will have a look. Am thinking about several ways to go: | 07:10 |
|---|---|---|
| willem | Some people like to read; some people like visuals; some people like simply to skip any reading or information and want to simply dig in... | 07:11 |
| willem | Perhaps there is a way to cater for all... | 07:12 |
| Leigh_on_sea | willem: could you tell me which irc bouncer you used and point me towards links to get it up and running? | 08:04 |
| willem | Sure. | 08:06 |
| willem | ZNC: https://wiki.znc.in/ZNC | 08:07 |
| willem | As a client I use HexChat. | 08:08 |
| willem | ZNC+HExChat work together quite well I find. | 08:08 |
| Leigh_on_sea | I have done some reading and my initial thoughts are that the current set-up with an introduction page (https://xubuntu.org/contribute/qa) and also a more in depth doc on everything (https://docs.xubuntu.org/contributors/qa.html) is good but that the intro page needs to be developed and extended whilst remaining very simple. | 08:09 |
| Leigh_on_sea | thanks | 08:09 |
| Leigh_on_sea | I had found ZNC myself | 08:09 |
| willem | Leigh_on_sea, from what I read I find the information is all there, but it's written from the point of view of the developers-side of things. I am making a first setup/draft/concept where I start from the point of view of the end user. Will share that with you shortly, so that you can shoot at it. | 08:12 |
| Leigh_on_sea | OK, thanks | 08:13 |
| Leigh_on_sea | I am not in today but will try to set up ZNC so I don't miss posts. How will we exchange files etc? email? | 08:15 |
| flocculant | do it on e-mail and cc me in :) | 08:15 |
| flocculant | thanks both for thinking about this | 08:16 |
| flocculant | and good morning | 08:16 |
| willem | Leigh_on_sea, apropos bouncer: I believe pleia2 may be able to help you there. | 08:17 |
| Leigh_on_sea | I found a guide, will try to follow that and shout if I need help | 08:17 |
| Leigh_on_sea | what about android IRC? | 08:18 |
| willem | flocculant, I'll e-mail you, but as I don't have Leigh_on_sea's e-mail I'll rely on you to relay it on, and -if alright with Leigh_on_sea, to cc me so that I have his e-mail address. | 08:19 |
| willem | flocculant, good morning btw. | 08:20 |
| * willem reminds himself that good manners are essential even on IRC | 08:20 | |
| flocculant | well I'd imagined that you two could do some back and forth and I'd interject if needed :) | 08:20 |
| flocculant | willem: check the xubuntu user list for mails from Leigh_on_sea :) | 08:20 |
| flocculant | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-users/2018-April/010505.html | 08:21 |
| * willem facepalms for the bleeding obviousness of flocculant's suggestion :-) | 08:21 | |
| flocculant | :) | 08:21 |
| willem | flocculant, thank | 08:21 |
| willem | ou | 08:21 |
| flocculant | np | 08:21 |
| flocculant | also - re good manners, the Ubuntu CoC counts everywhere ;) | 08:22 |
| flocculant | Leigh_on_sea: did try android irc once - didn't work well for me - but it was a while ago and I'm not good at paying for apps there ;) | 08:22 |
| flocculant | Leigh_on_sea: also re irc bouncer - just mentioning the obvious here - but I assume you realise you need an always on machine for it to work | 08:23 |
| Leigh_on_sea | good morning :) | 08:26 |
| Leigh_on_sea | Flocculant: No, I didnt realise that - in fact that makes no sense to me as if I have to leave the machine on, why wouldnt I leave my client on (I am using Pidgin) and then I have no need for a bouncer? | 08:34 |
| Leigh_on_sea | With people like me it is always good policy to state the bleeding obvious :) | 08:35 |
| flocculant | :) | 08:35 |
| Leigh_on_sea | have to go, small person getting shirty about going to the beach | 08:35 |
| flocculant | yea bouncers need to be always on somehow - or you'd lose it, there are logs of this channel - updated hourly(ish) at https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | 08:36 |
| flocculant | have fun at the beach then - cya another time | 08:36 |
| willem | Leigh_on_sea, wasn't it you who had a raspberry pi running with OSMC? So have I, and that pi is running 24x7 and it's on that pi I installed ZNC | 08:40 |
| willem | Works like a treat | 08:40 |
| Leigh_on_sea | I have 10 around the house, one for the boat :) | 08:40 |
| Leigh_on_sea | will look into it | 08:40 |
| willem | great | 08:40 |
| willem | Leigh_on_sea, My pi runs OSMC, pi-hole, RED-node and ZNC - no problems whatsoever. | 08:49 |
| * willem will be away for a bit | 08:50 | |

| ochosi | ali1234: why not put svgtopng directly into the python package? | 20:51 |
| ali1234 | i don't know how | 20:51 |
| ochosi | would be more convenient to install, and it's a mandatory requirement anyway | 20:51 |
| ochosi | oh ok | 20:51 |
| ochosi | (still generating my first diff, seems i chose a biggy :p) | 20:51 |
| ali1234 | bootstrap is already in there but that does not need to be compiled | 20:51 |
| ochosi | right, but couldn't you ship svgtopng precompiled? | 20:52 |
| ali1234 | not really | 20:52 |
| ali1234 | it's written in C | 20:53 |
| ali1234 | so it would break | 20:53 |
| ali1234 | i'll ask #python how to build it at install time | 20:53 |
| ali1234 | actually since it only seems to use gtk i can probably rewrite it in python | 20:54 |
| ali1234 | it #includes libxfce4ui but i can't see where it uses it | 20:55 |
| ochosi | probably not necessary | 20:58 |
| ochosi | but yeah, rewriting in python wold probably be the cleanest solution | 20:59 |
| ochosi | even if that means it'll be a little slower at runtime | 20:59 |
| ochosi | (maybe not by much if optimized) | 21:00 |
| ochosi | nice work on the whole diff viewing | 21:00 |
| ochosi | really really helpful | 21:00 |
| ali1234 | probably will be faster since there will not be the overhead of spawning a new process. the actual code speed difference will not be measuable | 21:00 |
| ali1234 | i can also add an entry point that will let you call svgtopng directly | 21:01 |
| ochosi | nice work on the gradient conversion by the way | 21:03 |
| ochosi | the remaining part for me is to adjust the gradient stops i guess | 21:04 |
| ali1234 | there's a bunch of files i could not convert too | 21:04 |
| ali1234 | too complex, i didn't know how to handle it | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | i listed them anyway | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | also not sure if i did the stroke right | 21:05 |
| ochosi | oh, plus the stroke needs to be recolored | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | i did recolour some of them | 21:05 |
| ali1234 | there could also be radial gradients | 21:05 |
| ochosi | no problem, i'll dig through the icons | 21:06 |
| ochosi | there were quite a few more files touched though than expected | 21:06 |
| ali1234 | a lot of them have really tiny green bits | 21:06 |
| ochosi | not sure why e.g. go-home would be modified | 21:06 |
| ochosi | there are no green bits in that one | 21:06 |
| ali1234 | maybe the stroke | 21:07 |
| ali1234 | actually that was isn't modified | 21:08 |
| ali1234 | except for vacuum defs | 21:08 |
| ochosi | hm | 21:09 |
| ochosi | i only compared cf2bf4acbcbb1d54673fb484cac2a72a5a4a5218 to bfab3bcf27977cc3d09eeb0c195b32fd05d072bd | 21:10 |
| ali1234 | checking | 21:11 |
| ali1234 | go-home doesn't appear in that for me | 21:12 |
| ochosi | strange | 21:15 |
| ochosi | i'll clean up and try again | 21:16 |
| === leigh_on_sea is now known as Guest68548 | ||
| ochosi | ali1234: did you try on your own branch? | 21:19 |
| ochosi | oh crap | 21:19 |
| ochosi | i'm just too tired obviously :p | 21:19 |
| ochosi | i forgot i first tried with -a and never removed the parameter | 21:20 |
| ochosi | ok nice, i think i can manually fix those 119 | 21:23 |
| ali1234 | back | 21:28 |
| === leigh_on_sea is now known as Guest35412 | ||
| ochosi | ali1234: so i'll try to clean up the icons and make them ready locally and then do the merge on the repo | 21:41 |
| ochosi | thanks for saving me a lot of time there! | 21:42 |
| ochosi | it's still quite a bit of effort i'm afraid (gotta re-create the border stroke for every icon, set the correct color/opacity and remove the border from the gradient path) but it's a lot less than without your help | 21:42 |
| ochosi | (oh and adjust the gradient steps) | 21:43 |
| ali1234 | ochosi: pushed a pure python svgtopng | 22:13 |
| ali1234 | i think it should be 100% compatible with the C version | 22:14 |
| ali1234 | except for the default size stuff | 22:14 |
| ali1234 | that should be fixed now | 22:15 |
| ali1234 | also remember you can use tag and branch names :) | 22:16 |
