 wxl: this is bashism then? wpBg=$(grep 'BgColor=' $settingsFile) ... wpBg=${wpBg:8}
 that sounds like a wordpress-ism
[00:05] <wxl> yep
 ah, my bad.
[00:05] <teward> wait
[00:05] <teward> wxl: who were you replying to :P
[00:05] <wxl> you could use `` instead of $()
[00:05] <teward> wxl: ehhhhh
[00:05] <wxl> but that substring bit is totally unportable
[00:06] <teward> wxl: last time I checked ` ` is recommended to $() not backticks
[00:06] <wxl> teward: not you, go back to your caffeine drip, you junkie
[00:06] <teward> wxl: what caffeine drip?  *sips on coffee*
[00:06] <teward> :P
[00:06] <wxl> um those ARE backticks
[00:06] <teward> wxl: i didn't say `` is recommended.
[00:07] <teward> i said that the recommendation is to repalce `` with $() calls
[00:07] <teward> i mistyped that
[00:07] <teward> but i'm sorta being bumped around and crap in the hospital waiting room here
[00:07] <wxl> i don't think that's portable in /bin/sh but could be wrong
[00:07] <teward> so blah.
[00:07] <teward> wxl: well are we talking about Bash or Dash?
[00:07] <wxl> /bin/sh
[00:07] <teward> because they're different :P
[00:07] <wxl> and ultimately, POSIX-compliance
[00:07] <teward> you mean Dash :p
[00:08] <wxl> no
[00:08] <teward> /bin/sh is symlinked to Dash in *buntu
[00:08] <teward> so
[00:08] <teward> yes
[00:08] <wxl> but that's as close as it gets
[00:08] <teward> you do
[00:08] <teward> i'll leave you be :)
[00:09] <wxl> for example in free bsd, $() fails
 @wxl [<wxl> but that substring bit is totally unportable], but actually what i want to get is what is after the =, I know that is after the 8 position, that is why I substring it.
[00:17] <wxl> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40771231/how-to-check-substring-in-bourne-shell
 wxl: this is not bashism?
 j=$((j + 1))
 or more general
[00:32] <wxl> it is, afaik
 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)) ...         done
[00:36] <wxl> j=`expr $j + 1`
 These features are not required by POSIX. ... foo=$((n++)) can be replaced with foo=$n; $((n=n+1)) foo=$((++n)) can be replaced with foo=$((n=n+1))
[00:45] <wxl> it won't work EVERYWHERE
[00:45] <wxl> i use freebsd as the ultimate test
[00:45] <wxl> but maybe that's a bad test :)
[00:46] <wxl> i guess for our sake if it works in dash, you'll probably be ok
 jeje I got it from here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh
[00:46] <wxl> that yeah
 wxl: you understand set — $var as good option? ... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14594033/does-dash-support-bash-style-arrays
[01:14] <wxl> doesn't work in bsd
[01:14] <wxl> arrays, afair, are not supported at all
[01:21] <wxl> and indeed that's not an array!
 any ideas on how to run qterminal with a command and don't close it?
 -e close it
 for example $qterminal -e "apt update"
[01:31] <wxl> i seem to remember combating that in a bug report but don't remember the answer
 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"
 there is no info from aptdaemon during installation, only for download
[01:35] <wxl> could you keep it open via a desktop entry somehow?
 I'm trying that, but after all, the only problem  is that if it gives an error you won't know
[01:36] <wxl> so that's the reason why you're trying to keep it open?
 yes
[01:38] <wxl> there's no aptdaemon way to raise errors???
 it supose to, but apparently there are problems with kernel updates
[01:39] <wxl> hm
 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 updates
 and during a long update, sometimes you might think it freeze, that's why I would better use a shell instead
[01:40] <wxl> makes sense
[01:41] <wxl> headed home, talk soon
 see you soon
 Has anyone seen the latest daily iso?
 No, have you?
 Yes, still Gnome with a default debian wallpaper now.
 Siiiigh.
 What if we seed `notification-daemon`?
 We need to explicitly seed lxqt-notificationd
 On it

 @kc2bez [Yes, still Gnome with a default debian wallpaper now.], So gnome-shell os still presenta?
 Yes it was. Not sure if the iso has rebuilt or not, I haven't checked. Simon added lxqt-notificationd to the seed.
 @kc2bez [Yes it was. Not sure if the iso has rebuilt or not, I haven't checked. Simon add …], I thought you were sleeping
 I'm up early, usually by 5 on work days.
 Are you on the easy coast, then?
 Yes, I am in NY.
 Good, someone timezone-near

 Could you maybe look at wrapping the text?
 Otherwise it looks good!
 wxl: Look at this! ^^^^ :D
 @tsimonq2 [Could you maybe look at wrapping the text?], ok, but I think the priority for now should be update-notifier, or this?
 for running it. $lxqt-sudo software-properties-qt —open-tab=4 ... now the .dekstop should added/fixed.
 @HMollerCl [ok, but I think the priority for now should be update-notifier, or this?], Probably update-notifier, yeah
 Got a link? We can package that
 pm
[13:28] <wxl[m]> You are amazing @HMollerCl
[13:31] <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.
[16:20] <lynorian> wxl[m]: Have you thought what chapter to put that in?

[19:45] <lynorian> anyone else having a problem in kvm on input on the latest daily on a kvm vm?
[19:50] <lynorian> I can't get any text input right now what package should I file a bug against
 I haven't tested today's daily. Is it still Gnome?
[19:53] <lynorian> no
[19:54] <lynorian> it is lxqt
 Well that is an improvement. I will check it later this evening when I get home.
[20:36] <lynorian> bug 1816665 ugh
[21:14] <kc2bez> lynorian: The new iso works in virtualbox. I will try it again later in KVM.
 @kc2bez might be best to comment that on the bug will help narrow down what is causing it
 I will in a bit.
