[07:10] flocculant, didn know about https://wiki.xubuntu.org/qa/isotesting yet. Will have a look. Am thinking about several ways to go: [07:11] 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... [07:12] Perhaps there is a way to cater for all... [08:04] willem: could you tell me which irc bouncer you used and point me towards links to get it up and running? [08:06] Sure. [08:07] ZNC: https://wiki.znc.in/ZNC [08:08] As a client I use HexChat. [08:08] ZNC+HExChat work together quite well I find. [08:09] 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] thanks [08:09] I had found ZNC myself [08:12] 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. [08:13] OK, thanks [08:15] 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] do it on e-mail and cc me in :) [08:16] thanks both for thinking about this [08:16] and good morning [08:17] Leigh_on_sea, apropos bouncer: I believe pleia2 may be able to help you there. [08:17] I found a guide, will try to follow that and shout if I need help [08:18] what about android IRC? [08:19] 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. [08:20] flocculant, good morning btw. [08:20] * willem reminds himself that good manners are essential even on IRC [08:20] well I'd imagined that you two could do some back and forth and I'd interject if needed :) [08:20] willem: check the xubuntu user list for mails from Leigh_on_sea :) [08:21] 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] :) [08:21] flocculant, thank [08:21] ou [08:21] np [08:22] also - re good manners, the Ubuntu CoC counts everywhere ;) [08:22] 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 ;) [08:23] 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 [08:26] good morning :) [08:34] 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? [08:35] With people like me it is always good policy to state the bleeding obvious :) [08:35] :) [08:35] have to go, small person getting shirty about going to the beach [08:36] 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] have fun at the beach then - cya another time [08:40] 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] Works like a treat [08:40] I have 10 around the house, one for the boat :) [08:40] will look into it [08:40] great [08:49] Leigh_on_sea, My pi runs OSMC, pi-hole, RED-node and ZNC - no problems whatsoever. [08:50] * willem will be away for a bit [18:28] -SwissBot:#xubuntu-devel- ::xfce4-announce:: ANNOUNCE: xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin 2.1.6 released @ http://xfce.10915.n7.nabble.com/ANNOUNCE-xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin-2-1-6-released-tp50888.html (by Graeme Gott) === zeioth_plus_one is now known as Zeioth [20:51] ali1234: why not put svgtopng directly into the python package? [20:51] i don't know how [20:51] would be more convenient to install, and it's a mandatory requirement anyway [20:51] oh ok [20:51] (still generating my first diff, seems i chose a biggy :p) [20:51] bootstrap is already in there but that does not need to be compiled [20:52] right, but couldn't you ship svgtopng precompiled? [20:52] not really [20:53] it's written in C [20:53] so it would break [20:53] i'll ask #python how to build it at install time [20:54] actually since it only seems to use gtk i can probably rewrite it in python [20:55] it #includes libxfce4ui but i can't see where it uses it [20:58] probably not necessary [20:59] but yeah, rewriting in python wold probably be the cleanest solution [20:59] even if that means it'll be a little slower at runtime [21:00] (maybe not by much if optimized) [21:00] nice work on the whole diff viewing [21:00] really really helpful [21:00] 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 [21:01] i can also add an entry point that will let you call svgtopng directly [21:03] nice work on the gradient conversion by the way [21:04] the remaining part for me is to adjust the gradient stops i guess [21:04] there's a bunch of files i could not convert too [21:05] too complex, i didn't know how to handle it [21:05] i listed them anyway [21:05] also not sure if i did the stroke right [21:05] oh, plus the stroke needs to be recolored [21:05] i did recolour some of them [21:05] there could also be radial gradients [21:06] no problem, i'll dig through the icons [21:06] there were quite a few more files touched though than expected [21:06] a lot of them have really tiny green bits [21:06] not sure why e.g. go-home would be modified [21:06] there are no green bits in that one [21:07] maybe the stroke [21:08] actually that was isn't modified [21:08] except for vacuum defs [21:09] hm [21:10] i only compared cf2bf4acbcbb1d54673fb484cac2a72a5a4a5218 to bfab3bcf27977cc3d09eeb0c195b32fd05d072bd [21:11] checking [21:12] go-home doesn't appear in that for me [21:15] strange [21:16] i'll clean up and try again === leigh_on_sea is now known as Guest68548 [21:19] ali1234: did you try on your own branch? [21:19] oh crap [21:19] i'm just too tired obviously :p [21:20] i forgot i first tried with -a and never removed the parameter [21:23] ok nice, i think i can manually fix those 119 [21:28] back === leigh_on_sea is now known as Guest35412 [21:41] ali1234: so i'll try to clean up the icons and make them ready locally and then do the merge on the repo [21:42] thanks for saving me a lot of time there! [21:42] 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 [21:43] (oh and adjust the gradient steps) [22:13] ochosi: pushed a pure python svgtopng [22:14] i think it should be 100% compatible with the C version [22:14] except for the default size stuff [22:15] that should be fixed now [22:16] also remember you can use tag and branch names :)
