| kubokeke | hi | 09:35 |
| adcax | can anyone suggests a lightest ubuntu flavour? the newest lubuntu lags on my old laptop | 11:40 |
| adcax | please suggest a lighter ubuntu flavor. Latest version (with LXQt) 18.10 is not running properly on my old laptop | 11:42 |
| guiverc_d | adcax, lubuntu is generally regarded as the lightest, however you can also misused a desktop & make it perform worse than another if you use inappropriate apps on it (eg. use GTK+ apps on a Qt base and you've caused your memory to have duplicate libs wasting memory..) | 11:42 |
| guiverc_d | I tested Lubuntu 18.10 on a 1gb single core pentium M - and I was happy. but with only 1gb of memory, I'd be careful with the apps I used... | 11:43 |
| adcax | ok thanks | 11:44 |
| guiverc_d | I also tested Xubuntu (GTK+) on the same laptop -- if I wanted GTK+ apps, Xubuntu would possibly be a better choice; but I did prefer Lubuntu on it (with Qt base) | 11:45 |
| guiverc_d | (Lubuntu 18.04 with LXDE may also be another choice... with it's longer LTS life) | 11:45 |
| guiverc_d | my point is you need to consider the DESKTOP (& its base) with apps you intend using; esp. with limited ram... with enough ram you can ignore the libs (& memory they require) | 11:46 |
| Mead | I have 18.04, if I run the command "apt full-upgrade" would this install a newer version of lubuntu? | 12:19 |

| lubot | <Abraham Martinez Diaz> Hello | 22:06 |
| lubot | <Abraham Martinez Diaz> i'm new to this group | 22:07 |
| lubot | <Abraham Martinez Diaz> I'm using lubuntu 19.04 and there's an error with inkscape | 22:08 |
| wxl | Abraham (use a nickname/username for IRC people to be able to mention you easier), try adding -o=APT::Install-Suggests=false to your apt command | 22:12 |
| lubot | <Abraham Martinez Diaz> E: The "python-uniconvertor" package does not have a candidate for installation | 22:12 |
| wxl | is that with my suggestion? | 22:13 |
| lubot | <Abraham Martinez Diaz> @wxl [<wxl> Abraham (use a nickname/username for IRC people to be able to mention you …], ok | 22:14 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> inkscape is installed | 22:19 |
| wxl | horray :) | 22:19 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> but I need that package | 22:20 |
| wxl | you need python-uniconvertor? | 22:20 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @wxl [<wxl> you need python-uniconvertor?], Yes | 22:20 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> the application has a bug | 22:20 |
| wxl | that package hasn't been available since 16.04 :( | 22:21 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @wxl [<wxl> that package hasn't been available since 16.04 :(], :'( | 22:21 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> Any suggestions? | 22:22 |
| wxl | i think there may be a snap package.. you could try that perhaps | 22:22 |
| wxl | python-uniconvertor is broken in upstream debian, too | 22:23 |
| wxl | what's really strange though is that it's a *SUGGEST*, which is the lowest form of "dependency." it's not even a dependency, technically. it's an enhancement. | 22:24 |
| wxl | i.e. inkscape should work just fine without it | 22:25 |
| wxl | the other thing i can tell you, is that this problem should exist across every flavor of ubuntu and debian and all of their derivatives | 22:25 |
| lubot | <lynorian> suggests can be wierd? | 22:28 |
| Eickmeyer | Suggests can be outdated and not even factor anything that actually exists or not. | 22:29 |
| wxl | that | 22:29 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @wxl [<wxl> i.e. inkscape should work just fine without it], the application closes because of that error | 22:30 |
| wxl | how do you know it's because of that error and not some other problem? | 22:30 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> The weird thing is that in my work I have Lubuntu 18.04 LXTQ and inkscape works fine but in Lubuntu 19.04 no | 22:33 |
| wxl | different versions of inkscape.. not necessarily weir | 22:34 |
| wxl | d | 22:34 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @wxl [<wxl> different versions of inkscape.. not necessarily weir], ok | 22:35 |
| wxl | so what is the error? and how do you know it's related to uniconvertor? | 22:35 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> when I copy and paste images that error appears | 22:36 |
| wxl | what error? | 22:36 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> and inkscape seems to need it for svg images | 22:37 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> give me a second and I translate the error | 22:37 |
| lynorian | oh seems there is a github fork that has emerged after orignial maintainer left | 22:47 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> You must install the UniConvertor software. … For GNU-Linux: install the python uniconverter package. … For Windows: Download it from … https://sk1project.net/modules.php?name=Products&product=uniconvertor&op=download and install it in the Python location on your system | 22:49 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> I did not know, I did not know it | 22:53 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @lynorian [<lynorian> oh seems there is a github fork that has emerged after orignial maint …], I did not know, I did not know it | 22:54 |
| lynorian | @ajedrezAbraham I was not talking about inkscape more stuff iwth the manual | 22:55 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> 👍 | 22:57 |
| wxl | @AjedrezAbraham https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/437143 | 22:57 |
| wxl | tl;dr save to svg and you should be able to get around the issue | 22:58 |
| wxl | otherwise try the snap https://snapcraft.io/inkscape | 22:58 |
| Eickmeyer | Another option is to ask someone on #inkscape on irc. | 23:00 |
| wxl | i suspect it won't go well | 23:00 |
| wxl | "tell your distribution to fix their packages" | 23:00 |
| Eickmeyer | wxl: I've only ever once encountered that. | 23:01 |
| wxl | Eickmeyer: oh what blissful world you must live in :) | 23:02 |
| lynorian | wxl the github fork somewhat works | 23:05 |
| lynorian | I think I should rename the LXDE branch as 18.04 | 23:06 |
| wxl | i agree (also -> devel) | 23:07 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @lubuntu_bot I will try to install UniConvertor from https://sk1project.net/viewpage.php?page_id=26 | 23:08 |
| wxl | @AjedrezAbraham that's really old and targeted at the *10.04* version of ubuntu. i would NOT suggest it | 23:09 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> @wxl [<wxl> @AjedrezAbraham that's really old and targeted at the *10.04* version of u …], This package: … python-uniconvertor-2.0rc4_20190402_ubuntu_18.10_amd64.deb | 23:11 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> sudo dpkg -i python-uniconvertor-2.0rc4_20190402_ubuntu_18.10_amd64.deb | 23:19 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> sudo apt install -f | 23:20 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> it worked 😃 | 23:21 |
| wxl | yay | 23:21 |
| lubot | <AjedrezAbraham> XD | 23:22 |
| wxl | Eickmeyer: if you have any intention of caring about that and have people to bug about it it looks like they may not know where the upstream is? | 23:22 |
| * Eickmeyer is confused | 23:40 | |
| Eickmeyer | wxl: if that package is needed for some workflows, then it might be worth getting the github fork packaged. | 23:41 |
| wxl | Eickmeyer: well, inkscape XD it looks like debian can't find the upstream source | 23:42 |
| Eickmeyer | wxl: I'll ask about it. | 23:42 |
| Eickmeyer | Expecially since it directly affects Ubuntu Studio. | 23:43 |
| wxl | well thanks because it doesn't lubuntu XD | 23:45 |
