[09:54] <ecobos> Hey, direct download links in https://ubuntustudio.org/download/ use http:// rather than https://
[09:54] <ecobos> Which cause Firefox to (correctly) flag it as potentially insecure
[09:54] <ecobos> Just using https:// there works, so maybe the link could be fixed?
[10:17] <kryten> ecobos: "Fixed" (also on some other links on the page that were still HTTP)
[12:58] <Eickmeyer[m]> Used to be only http worked.
[13:02] <RikMills> zysnc only works with plain http
[14:27] <BrianHechinger[m> Firefox is getting obnoxious with their security warnings.
[16:31] <ecobos> kryten: Thanks!
[22:36] <Eickmeyer[m]> leonwinter1993: Welcome. I'll let you know when I've got something, just watch element for a notification.
[22:37] <Eickmeyer[m]> Bear in mind, I can't add it to Ubuntu Studio 22.04 retroactively, but I can put it in the backport ppa when it's ready.
[22:37] <leonwinter1993[m> Eickmeyer: Heck yeah dude! I'm not always on here, so if it takes me a minute to respond, feel free to shoot me a DM and I'll get back to you ASAP
[22:38] <Eickmeyer[m]> Oh, don't worry. Instant messaging != instant, if you know what I mean. :)
[22:38] <leonwinter1993[m> Haha I got you
[22:38] <leonwinter1993[m> Again, much appreciated! 
[22:41] <Eickmeyer[m]> leonwinter1993: I found the source code and I just realized I've been working on this set of plugins for quite some time. It's actually a gigantic plugin bundle in the source code that I've been trying to get a code review on forever. At one point, I had a build, but it's way outdated.
[22:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> So this is... youch.
[22:42] <leonwinter1993[m> Yeah I think it comes with a package called distrho-ports
[22:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> Indeed it does.
[22:42] <Eickmeyer[m]> That's the source package.
[22:43] <leonwinter1993[m> Weird thing is, it works on the arch-based distros that I've used.
[22:44] <Eickmeyer[m]> Well, Debian (and Ubuntu) packaging is quite a bit more pedantic when it comes to copyright. We have a file that has to account for every single file in the source. That takes some time to go through for both the packager to create, and the reviewer to review.
[22:47] <leonwinter1993[m> So it it just a matter of waiting for a review, or a matter of "how to get it reviewed"?
[22:47] <leonwinter1993[m> If it's the latter, maybe hit up the guys over at Manjaro and see how they got it through?
[22:47] <Eickmeyer[m]> Nah, it's a matter of the wait for the most part. However, uploading to my own PPA is a matter of just a  little yeet.
[22:47] <Eickmeyer[m]> Manjaro's packaging is completely different.
[22:48] <Eickmeyer[m]> Fedora's is one I can speak to as well as I'm technically still a packager there. With that, it's all just one file, and you just have to list the licenses without respect to the individual files.
[22:49] <leonwinter1993[m> I figured so. Anyway to yeet it over to your PPA and try it out? I just started with my Ubuntu Studio setup, so I don't mind risking my current system to test it.
[22:50] <Eickmeyer[m]> Yeah, I could, but my sources are out of date, so it'll be a bit. Can't even guarantee it'll be tonight.
[22:51] <leonwinter1993[m> That's ok with me dude. Whenever you're ready, just lmk and I'd be happy to try it out!
[22:51] <Eickmeyer[m]> Sure, will do.
[22:51] <Eickmeyer[m]> We can always use more people willing to test thigns.
[22:52] <leonwinter1993[m> Happy to help out any way I can, really want to find my home distro for linux music production, and it would be super cool for it to be ubuntu studio!
[22:52] <Eickmeyer[m]> Well, that's one of the many things it's made for, so we'd be happy to have you!
[22:52] <leonwinter1993[m> Sweet!
[22:52] <arraybolt3[m]> Eickmeyer: Is there something I can help with as far as the plugin goes?
[22:53] <Eickmeyer[m]> arraybolt3: Considering I have nothing to work with (yet)... nothing. 😅
[22:53] <arraybolt3[m]> Ah. OK, I was just thinking I could manage the copyright file or something.
[22:54] <Eickmeyer[m]> arraybolt3: I mean... if you want... last time I touched it it was over 1,500 lines
[22:54] <arraybolt3[m]> Well, I don't have anything pressing I'm doing in Lubuntu, so it might be a fun project.
[22:55] <Eickmeyer[m]> Well, I'd hate for you to start from scratch, so let me see if I can even find it.
[22:56] <Eickmeyer[m]> Found it, and yes, I haven't touched it for two years: https://code.launchpad.net/distrho-ports
[22:56] <Eickmeyer[m]> I'll get the new upstream release in.
[23:00] <arraybolt3[m]> I think I should start from scratch for accuracy's sake. I'll just use LibreOffice Calc to help me with it, and then translate it to Debian copyright file format.
[23:00] <arraybolt3[m]> What version should I be doing it against?
[23:03] <Eickmeyer[m]> Well, I'm updating the entire git repo now. It'll only be 6 months out of date, since the last release was in March 2021.
[23:03] <arraybolt3[m]> Oh, OK.
[23:03] <Eickmeyer[m]> So, the copyright file won't be too far off.
[23:05] <Eickmeyer[m]> Pretty much will need to add all of the ports/ and scripts/ directories.
[23:29] <Eickmeyer[m]> arraybolt3: Ok, you should have push/pull access to that git repo. Everything you need should be in master.
[23:29] <Eickmeyer[m]> Final push done.
[23:29] <arraybolt3[m]> Eickmeyer: Oh wow, thank you!
[23:30] <Eickmeyer[m]> Feel free to comb through and make any corrections to that d/copyright. It's nearly 500 lines long (I was exaggerating earlier, but it's a long one).
[23:30] <Eickmeyer[m]> There are two new plugins, one of which is the plugin in question.
[23:30] <Eickmeyer[m]> Both include an lv2 and a vst version.
[23:31] <arraybolt3[m]> OK. What's the old version so I can git diff properly?
[23:32] <arraybolt3[m]> (Sorry if this is a silly question, but I'm not sure how to look it up off the top of my head.)
[23:33] <Eickmeyer[m]> Actually, you don't need to. Everything is updated, we're just looking for an update to the d/copyright at this point.
[23:34] <arraybolt3[m]> Oh, OK. I see what you're saying.
[23:34] <Eickmeyer[m]> I have a pretty fast workflow when it comes to updating upstream branches.
