lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: this is bashism then? wpBg=$(grep 'BgColor=' $settingsFile) ... wpBg=${wpBg:8}00:04
lubot<teward001> that sounds like a wordpress-ism00:05
wxlyep00:05
lubot<teward001> ah, my bad.00:05
tewardwait00:05
tewardwxl: who were you replying to :P00:05
wxlyou could use `` instead of $()00:05
tewardwxl: ehhhhh00:05
wxlbut that substring bit is totally unportable00:05
tewardwxl: last time I checked ` ` is recommended to $() not backticks00:06
wxlteward: not you, go back to your caffeine drip, you junkie00:06
tewardwxl: what caffeine drip?  *sips on coffee*00:06
teward:P00:06
wxlum those ARE backticks00:06
tewardwxl: i didn't say `` is recommended.00:06
tewardi said that the recommendation is to repalce `` with $() calls00:07
tewardi mistyped that00:07
tewardbut i'm sorta being bumped around and crap in the hospital waiting room here00:07
wxli don't think that's portable in /bin/sh but could be wrong00:07
tewardso blah.00:07
tewardwxl: well are we talking about Bash or Dash?00:07
wxl/bin/sh00:07
tewardbecause they're different :P00:07
wxland ultimately, POSIX-compliance00:07
tewardyou mean Dash :p00:07
wxlno00:08
teward/bin/sh is symlinked to Dash in *buntu00:08
tewardso00:08
tewardyes00:08
wxlbut that's as close as it gets00:08
tewardyou do00:08
tewardi'll leave you be :)00:08
wxlfor example in free bsd, $() fails00:09
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl [<wxl> but that substring bit is totally unportable], but actually what i want to get is what is after the =, I know that is after the 8 position, that is why I substring it.00:15
wxlhttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/40771231/how-to-check-substring-in-bourne-shell00:17
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: this is not bashism?00:32
lubot<HMollerCl> j=$((j + 1))00:32
lubot<HMollerCl> or more general00:32
wxlit is, afaik00:32
lubot<HMollerCl> OUT=`/usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check` ...         IFS='x' ...         j=0 ...         for STRING in $OUT; do ...             case $j in  ...                 0) ...                     upg=$STRING;; ...                 1) ...                     security=$STRING;; ...             esac ...             j=$((j + 1)) ...         done00:32
wxlj=`expr $j + 1`00:36
lubot<HMollerCl> These features are not required by POSIX. ... foo=$((n++)) can be replaced with foo=$n; $((n=n+1)) foo=$((++n)) can be replaced with foo=$((n=n+1))00:44
wxlit won't work EVERYWHERE00:45
wxli use freebsd as the ultimate test00:45
wxlbut maybe that's a bad test :)00:45
wxli guess for our sake if it works in dash, you'll probably be ok00:46
lubot<HMollerCl> jeje I got it from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh00:46
wxlthat yeah00:46
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: you understand set — $var as good option? ... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14594033/does-dash-support-bash-style-arrays01:12
wxldoesn't work in bsd01:14
wxlarrays, afair, are not supported at all01:14
wxland indeed that's not an array!01:21
lubot<HMollerCl> any ideas on how to run qterminal with a command and don't close it?01:30
lubot<HMollerCl> -e close it01:30
lubot<HMollerCl> for example $qterminal -e "apt update"01:31
wxli seem to remember combating that in a bug report but don't remember the answer01:31
lubot<HMollerCl> I might give up with aptdaemon and thing that the best way to call an upgrade is to open a terminal and execute "sudo apt dist-upgrade"01:32
lubot<HMollerCl> there is no info from aptdaemon during installation, only for download01:32
wxlcould you keep it open via a desktop entry somehow?01:35
lubot<HMollerCl> I'm trying that, but after all, the only problem  is that if it gives an error you won't know01:36
wxlso that's the reason why you're trying to keep it open?01:36
lubot<HMollerCl> yes01:38
wxlthere's no aptdaemon way to raise errors???01:38
lubot<HMollerCl> it supose to, but apparently there are problems with kernel updates01:39
wxlhm01:39
lubot<HMollerCl> today it has given me all the time that are 26ish updates I install with the gui says it fine, but keep pointing me that are updates01:40
lubot<HMollerCl> and during a long update, sometimes you might think it freeze, that's why I would better use a shell instead01:40
wxlmakes sense01:40
wxlheaded home, talk soon01:41
lubot<HMollerCl> see you soon01:41
lubot<kc2bez> Has anyone seen the latest daily iso?03:18
lubot<tsimonq2> No, have you?03:21
lubot<kc2bez> Yes, still Gnome with a default debian wallpaper now.03:21
lubot<tsimonq2> Siiiigh.03:22
lubot<kc2bez> What if we seed `notification-daemon`?03:29
lubot<tsimonq2> We need to explicitly seed lxqt-notificationd03:35
lubot<tsimonq2> On it03:35

lubot<HMollerCl> @kc2bez [Yes, still Gnome with a default debian wallpaper now.], So gnome-shell os still presenta?10:29
lubot<kc2bez> Yes it was. Not sure if the iso has rebuilt or not, I haven't checked. Simon added lxqt-notificationd to the seed.10:31
lubot<HMollerCl> @kc2bez [Yes it was. Not sure if the iso has rebuilt or not, I haven't checked. Simon add …], I thought you were sleeping10:57

lubot<tsimonq2> Could you maybe look at wrapping the text?12:25
lubot<tsimonq2> Otherwise it looks good!12:25
lubot<tsimonq2> wxl: Look at this! ^^^^ :D12:25
lubot<HMollerCl> @tsimonq2 [Could you maybe look at wrapping the text?], ok, but I think the priority for now should be update-notifier, or this?12:29
lubot<HMollerCl> for running it. $lxqt-sudo software-properties-qt —open-tab=4 ... now the .dekstop should added/fixed.12:30
lubot<tsimonq2> @HMollerCl [ok, but I think the priority for now should be update-notifier, or this?], Probably update-notifier, yeah12:31
lubot<tsimonq2> Got a link? We can package that12:31

wxl[m]You are amazing @HMollerCl13:28
wxl[m]lynorian adding a section on SDDM configuration would probably be extremely valuable since we currently don't have a good method of configuring.13:31
