Eickmeyerteward: Have you spun-up a test for the new website theme? Eylul went over it and couldn't find anything obfuscated.17:33
tewardNot yet but my code review turned up nothing either18:18
tewardI’d say just use it18:18
tewardI have a lot of crazy atm to deal with18:18
Eickmeyerteward: Ack.18:39
OvenWerksEickmeyer: jack_mixer: has error messages on run. It does run. It complains about not having lash (yeah!) which is fine. It also complains about "Cannot load Python bindings for GConf"19:15
OvenWerksWhich means preferences will be lost from run to run.19:15
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Yeah, i noticed that. Did you save the mixer? Also, I noticed that jack-mixer is pretty much dead.19:16
OvenWerksI figured that may be true as well.19:17
EickmeyerHonestly, the mixer functions in Ardour are far superior.19:17
OvenWerksbut... it is written in python.19:17
OvenWerksIf all someone wants is a jack output mixer, Ardour is a bit much to load19:18
OvenWerksbut it does have a c componant it looks like19:19
OvenWerksbut a c bit would probably not need to be kept up. The python will be 2 and the gtk is probably 2 as well19:20
EickmeyerIt's both python 2 and gtk2. Unless it can be upgraded to python3, it might be dead.19:21
EickmeyerAs in, we might have to remove it from the seed.19:21
EickmeyerLast release was 2014.19:22
* OvenWerks is getteing tired of loosing sw that works fine for these kinds of reasons.19:23
EickmeyerHmmm...19:24
OvenWerksif jack_mixer a separate package on it's own?19:24
Eickmeyertrebmuh: You had the last commit to jack-mixer. Got any thoughts?19:24
OvenWerkss/if/is/19:24
EickmeyerYes. It's jack-mixer, not jack_mixer.19:25
Eickmeyerhttps://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/jack-mixer/tree/master/debian19:25
EickmeyerRather... https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/jack-mixer19:25
OvenWerksthe question is if it is easier to fix this or package nonmixer19:28
OvenWerksor build a whole new one.19:28
EickmeyerOvenWerks: That's the thing. In order to package NSM or Nonmixer, the entire non suite has to be packaged. BUT, it relies on git checkouts, which is non-ideal.19:53
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Also, a deal-breaker for me is that Non Mixer doesn't take MIDI. OSC only.20:19
OvenWerksEickmeyer: ya, jack-mixer is better that way, but doesn't load plugins... of course nonmixer is lv1 only.20:25
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Yep, which makes no sense to me.20:25
OvenWerksThe ideal thing IMO, would be a mixer that is integrated into the jack back end20:25
EickmeyerMight be easier to update to Python 3 for jack-mixer, but that might require a fork.20:25
OvenWerksbut that will not happen20:25
OvenWerksI am willing to do a fork for that purpose.20:26
OvenWerksthe gtk could be updated to 3 as well20:26
OvenWerksI think glade will take the gtk file and hilite things that need to be changed20:27
OvenWerksMaybe I should revisit gtkmaster after that.20:29
OvenWerksEickmeyer: If I feel u0p to it I will fork->fix->pr upstream as well20:31
EickmeyerOvenWerks: Ok, sounds good. We can fork it to ubuntustudio-jack-mixer or something like that? nm, I'll leave it up to you.20:34
OvenWerksbe nice if it could see keyboard vol-up/down as well :)20:37
