meustationhow would one proceed to install the multitrack audio editing software Reaper on a regular 20.04 LTS Ubuntu? Is it in the repositories accessible through synaptic, or is the procedure a more exotic one?02:55
tomreynmeustation: it's a proprietary software built for windows, which according to their website works through WINE only. Bot the fact that there are no native Linux builds / executables (that WINE is needed to run it), and that it's proprietary rule out that you'll find it packaged in the official Ubuntu repositories02:59
tomreynthat is, via apt. things may differ for snaps, but i assume it's not available there also02:59
pickanickHi, I just had a crazy idea. Apparently Kubuntu LTS is supported for three years, Ubuntu LTS for five. Is it possible to ;) "downgrade" ;) Kubuntu back down to the "Ubuntu 22.04" version?  Is KDE on "Ubuntu" supported for longer than "Kubuntu" ?03:50

cbreakI updated several machines to 24.04. There were minor issues early on, and I still don't have any display output during boot (but that might be an nvidia / driver problem, not an upgrade problem)10:03
cbreakother than that it worked ok.10:03
cbreakon most machines anyway. I ended up reinstalling from scratch a bunch of them because upgrading was so much slower10:03
cbreak(I had to upgrade from 20.04 to 22.04, then to 23.10, then to 24.04, because there was no direct upgrade path)10:04
meustationthank you very much tomreyn10:32
tomreynmeustation: you're welcome. if you'd consider native software, there's audacity (which is apt install-able) and there are others which might not be as easy to install. i'm not really into the topic, though10:37
tomreynyou could check what UbuntuStudio provides10:38

fwehtcan i see somehow which snap packages where installed as dependencies and which ones are leafs?  are dependencies automatically removed when i remove a snap package?10:54
fwehtand not every snap package corresponds to a folder in `~/snap`, right?  which ones do?10:55
ravagenot ~/snap but /snap10:56
fwehtah thank you!10:59
ravageand snaps are not really cleaned up automatically11:05
ravagebut if you try to remove the core18 snap example and snaps depend on it you get an error11:06
ravageso i sometimes go through the list and try to cleanup everything11:06
fwehtravage: thanks a lot, will try!11:12
ravagethere is a --purge parameter for snap remove. but only use that if you really dont care about the snap data11:13
ravage(and user data)11:13
meustationtomreyn, I use audacity from time to time, but it's nowhere near what Reaper caters to. I could've sworn I saw on its website that it was installable on linux in some not too simple way (using wine classifies as simple for me, since I had the need of it for dvdshrink); Reaper is for me a sort of "minimum needs met" solution; I'm aiming to build podcasts from a voice guide track and songs I have on either cd or mp3 but11:24
meustationthe kind of control I need to get it done is something that will probably mean using one of the multi-video&audio mixing software. not having to work on real time broadcasting means I don't need ubuntustudio's live kernels.11:24
meustationhave no knowledge about any of the video editing softwares on the repositories though, I'm open to suggestions and caveats11:25
=== rajm-and is now known as rajm
tomreynmeustation: i don't have better suggestions, most likely because i'm not into audio/video processing11:36

bagatur-lphi, I have written a script to install built files to a user local with symlinks, but I wonder what else I can use for it11:42

=== SystemFailure is now known as blahblashblah
blahblashblahSo...I woke up this morning to my system dying due to no drive space...syslog is full of gigs of lines of GFileInfo errors. https://pastebin.com/bVqzxs7912:15
pickanickblahblashblah: which OS version?12:28
blahblashblahXubuntu 24.0412:28
pickanickUpgraded from 22.04 or installed fresh?12:29
blahblashblahUpgraded from 22.0412:30
pickanickUntil the problem is resolved, one way of getting by is to change the point at which the current log is rotated out and the < N-1 logs are compressed. I don't recall how its done but I know its possible. On the bright side, repeated error messages often compress really well.12:35
blahblashblahI wonder if linux will ever learn that spamming the error every few milliseconds until the system becomes unusable isn't really useful.12:36
xplora1aIf you are the bit of core reporting the error it is difficult to determine that you were there 100 milliseconds ago and don't need to report the error again.12:38
ioriablahblashblah, using Thunar by chance ?12:48
blahblashblahI have, but not often12:50

blahblashblahCould you give me the full link, that doesn't seem to work in this webirc thing, and I can't start a real client.12:52

younderSand boxing software has it virtues too, for security and stability.13:05
younderYou want the latest version. Snap includes the libs and support programs in the state the program expects it.13:10
younderRUST f.e.s is way better off with snap. I canned version would soon be obsolete. Firefox need the sand boxing. Perhaps they overdid it - just a few wouldo?13:12

alphaaurigaedepreciated gnome-authenticator 3.32.2 on ubuntu 24 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-authenticator18:03
alphaaurigae Read, https://pastebin.com/n5FVc6aX .. this version 3.32.2 creates real issues probably and should be replaced maybe.18:03
alphaaurigaeI ran into some real issues today on xubuntu 24 as described. gnome-authenticator DEV confirmed 3.32.2 depreciated. Losing 2fa access isnt nice. So maybe this is important.18:05

sixwheeledbeastre gnome-authenticator: it may still be hanging around due to the gtk3 vs gtk4 you mention. It will be down to the maintainer possibly from the debian repos rather than being a ubuntu issue. I use KeePassXC for TOTP, you can have multiple TOTP apps and you should store the recovery keys somewhere.18:53
sixwheeledbeastlooking at packages the 4.5.0 is available for Oracular18:55
alphaaurigaeThe dev said its on ubuntu, at least on what i understood. I wondered too why its on "The Oracular Oriole" but not on The Noble Numbat and The Jammy Jellyfish . Ill setup the new version with flatpak.18:58
sixwheeledbeastIf you don't want flatpack you can try the .deb from the packages page with gdebi and hope the dependencies can be met. It's only been uploaded to sid 3 weeks ago well after versions would be locked for lts releases.19:00
sixwheeledbeastIt could be that noble can't meet the dependencies, if it can maybe it can be backported.19:02
alphaaurigaeWouldnt bother so much if it didnt create a real problem today. I thought for a minute that i lost all my 2fa access which would have been a real issue because i didnt setup a backup device.19:03
alphaaurigaeOnly by trying to first find the db file (that wasnt named after the app and the location only had authenticator in it but with a capital A so locate didnt find it and there was no place where the location was outlined or that its a sql file. Then the second downer, after acessing it with litesql over sonsole , great the table is there but the key encrypted (logically) ... wanted to test if the app still acess 19:03
alphaaurigaentry , bingo. it was added to the db file. After doing so and restarting all entries showed again and i could create a json backup.19:03
alphaaurigaeMaybe it wouldve worked by running the app through sudo too, concluded because adding the test key required sudo.19:04
alphaaurigaewhatever, its a real problem to run into an issue like this and a "new" repo like 24 should run 3-5 year dated depreciated applications .. no clue ... this seems odd politely19:05
alphaaurigaeshould not*19:05
alphaaurigaeits so un usual that something goes this wrong on lts ubuntu that i bothered to post here, consult heir dev support channel. Using ubuntu for almost 16 years and this is one rare occasion where i thought wtf this can crate some real life problem19:07
sixwheeledbeastwhile 24.x release has been rocky, packages like this are extra and not part of the OS. It's down to those package maintainers, there was a bug report May 2023 about buggy behaviour.19:16
alphaaurigaeback, had to reboot19:37
swan@vortexx salut19:44
alphaaurigaeUpdated the gnome-authenticator with flatpak as recommended by the project maintainer dev. the depreciated 3.X should possibly removed from the repositories and / or updated as it potentially does more harm than good. Users  who run in the situation i experienced may find themselves with lost account access on important services and the issues that come along.19:49
swanj aimerais savoir il y a du monde de dispo s il vous plait ?19:50
PheralSparkyis there a distro of ubuntu tailored specific for newer touch screens 2 in 1 laptops like dell?19:55
sixwheeledbeastI would expect vanilla ubuntu with gnome is most touch friendly flavour.20:07
