Seeking python expertise
by Darrell Anderson 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Building kstreamripper is broken because the python build script can't parse the new TDE versioning scheme and looks for kde-config rather than tde-config. I tried fixing things but fell short and filed bug report 946: http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=946 I don't think the changes need be prolific. If you have any python experience you probably can make the changes in short order. As always am I ready to test any patches. Thanks! Darrell

*intermittent* sip4-tqt build failure on first try ( /usr/bin/flex: Unrecognized option `W' )
by David C. Rankin 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

All, GIGO right - computers, given the same input should produce the same output every time. If it's garbage in it's garbage out. The build of sip4-tqt seems to violate that adage. When attempt to build sip4-tqt (the first time/randomly), I get a failure: gcc -c -march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -I/usr/include/tqt -I/opt/trinity/include -I/opt/tqt3/include -O2 -w -DNDEBUG -I. -o parser.o parser.c lex -Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,--hash-style=gnu -t lexer.l > lexer.c /usr/bin/flex: Unrecognized option `W' Try `flex --help' for more information. make[1]: *** [lexer.c] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/src/sipPy3/sipgen' make: *** [all] Error 2 The only 'W' that could be causing the error is the LDFLAGS string '-Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,--hash-style=gnu', but that hasn't caused a problem before so I just issue the build command again - and it builds without issue - WTF? Looking at the lex command above I see: lex -Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,--hash-style=gnu -t lexer.l > lexer.c That doesn't seem right. I don't know lex from fred, passing 'lex ${LDFLAGS} -t lexer.l > lexer.c' doesn't seem right because there is no '-Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,--hash-style=gnu' c syntax that I know of :) Has anyone else seen this spurious behavior? I kills rebuilds when it causes sip build failures I haven't changed a thing, and I get different results. The build is simple: <snip> cd ${srcdir} ## copy source for Python build cp -r ${pkgbase#*-} sipPy3 ## Python version msg "Running python configure.py (python3 based sip)...." cd ${srcdir}/sipPy3 python configure.py CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" LFLAGS="${LDFLAGS}" msg "Building - tde-sip (python3 based sip)..." make ## Python2 version msg "Running python2 configure.py (sip4-tqt)...." cd ${srcdir}/${pkgbase#*-} python2 configure.py CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" LFLAGS="${LDFLAGS}" msg "Building - ${pkgbase}..." make } Any thoughts? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

I'll see if I can figure it out based on the gwenview patch. I think that is all it needs. If anyone is good with this and can beat me to it, my hat is off to you. And wow - processor speed really makes a huge difference in build times. For the packages I'm building on arch: i686 build - old p4 2800 Build time 462 min. ~ 7.7 hours x86_64 build - newer (but old) 9850 X4 Build time 224 min. ~ 3.7 hours Never really built projects this large before, but speed -- does matter :) -- David C.

eg. kima - why do some sources still have the 'config.log' files in the source?
by David C. Rankin 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Tim, All, Do we want to flag packages that still have old build files in them? Look at kima - it still has somebody's old config.log in the kima dir. Etherpad issue? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

'tsak' and 'tdmtsak' still using ~100% of CPU when TDM used
by David C. Rankin 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Tim, Slavek tsak/tdmtsak are still broken and taking almost 100% of the cpu when TDM is used as the login manager. This is with 'todays' (03/29) build from the GIT tree: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/dt/trinity/ss/tsak-96-cpu.jpg I thought this was fixed?? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Fixing What's This and Tooltip text strings
by Darrell Anderson 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

I would like to update branding issues in all of the What's This and Tooltip text strings. Primarily changing KDE -> TDE. A challenge is many of the text strings are multiple lines. A simple find/sed one-liner will be insufficient. The What's This strings are contained in TQString functions and end with the traditional semi-colon. Additional What's This strings are in XML files enclosed in <whatsthis> and </whatsthis> tags. The tool tips are embedded in i18n functions. I'm no expert with awk or perl and I'm guessing either is better for addressing this challenge. A good way for me to learn some basics about awk or perl is to update these text strings. I would appreciate some awk/perl tips or pointers for approaching this mini project. Thanks! Darrell

Big Trinity deployment in Munich
by Julius Schwartzenberg 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

I just noticed this on Slashdot: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/12/03/29/0025239/munich-has-saved-4m-so-far… One of the comments also links to this presentation which looks interesting: https://www.desktopsummit.org/sites/www.desktopsummit.org/files/DS2011_LiMu… It seems Trinity was the most attractive choice as a KDE 3.5 replacement. It will be interesting to see more of such deployments. Julius

knemo - quirks? Never shows up on systray.
by David C. Rankin 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

All, Built and installed knemo, my favorite network monitor. The first thing I notices was there was no menu entry created? IIRC there was always a launcher. Not a huge problem, 'kcmshell kcm_knemo' fires the config right up. Configure it to taste, set nettools backend to sys and --- nothing shows up in the systray? Tweak config, try NetTools backend, delete eth0 and recreate, still - no knemo in systray. Hmm - anyone else see this? [ ] hide when not connected - unchecked :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
