Hi all,
the tenth service on the migration list is the primary archive.
-- Migration status --
The change of the primary archive was made before the release of R14.0.7
(in October 2019). This removed the dependency of the primary archive on
QuickBuild, which made it possible to make a change in the archive layout
and cleanup. The reprepro tool is now used to manage repositories of deb
packages, which allows us to publish new releases very smoothly. Thanks to
the use of reprepro, Contents files for apt-file are also available.
Because the primary archive is too large to be placed on a tde-box or
tde-vps, it is located on my home server. In order to reduce the size for
the mirror system, packages of older versions are excluded.
I would like to thank those who provides mirrors for our repositories, and
especially Mike Bird for his efforts and attention in managing the primary
mirror and overseeing the status of other mirrors.
-- What needs to be done --
We may consider placing the primary archive in a hosting center - for
example, by purchasing larger disks for tde-box or by increasing the space
provided for tde-vps. However, it will probably be a good idea to consider
such changes only after we are able to manage the project funds and accept
donations.
-- More ideas and suggestions?
Do you have any other ideas and suggestions?

I would like to install Trinity Desktop on Fedora 33, but have so far been unsuccessful. Please provide the correct command for adding the repository properly for Fedora 33. Thanks.
A while ago I wanted to try placing my kMail toolbar on the right side of the
main window (I normally keep it on the left). When I decided that wasn't
helpful I tried to move it back, but it didn't want to; stayed on the right
side. I eventually got it to go back again (somehow), but now whenever I
open kMail it's collapsed (just showing the handle at top left below the
menu) and I have to expand it each time kMail starts.
Any suggestions for fixing that?
Also, in Kate, which has multiple, somehow nested, toolbars, I'm having
trouble getting it to put the various buttons where I want them. In
my 'gaming' account they're set the way I find most convenient, with the
Save, Close and Quit buttons together, but in my 'working' account they
stubbornly refuse to associate. (See attached screenshots.)
What controls where these buttons appear in the toolbar?

I want to print the manual for an application from the Trinity Help Center.
If I click on the printer icon in the toolbar the dialog window says "all
pages". Is that all pages for the application being viewed, or all pages for
the Help Center?
I looked at the handbook for the Help Center itself, but for printing it
says "Print the contents of the currently visible page."
Confusion reigns.
Leslie
Selecting Advanced|No Border from the window operations menu will
remove the caption bar from a window. In theory you can set a
preference through Special Window Settings / Special Application
Settings to do this automatically, but it doesn't always work: e.g.,
LibreOffice windows respond to the window operations menu, but setting
SWS and SAS preferences does nothing. I wonder why?

Now I need some cross permissions help.
I have added two dcop commands to my backup.sh that are:
/opt/trinity/bin/dcop kmail KMailIface pauseBackgroundJobs
and:
/opt/trinity/bin/dcop kmail KMailIface resumeBackgroundJobs
Specified as Cmdholdit
and Cmdresume
and called as
$Comdholdit
and
$Cmdresume
But this script run as amanada, who is part of the backup group
and this error or generated:
ERROR: Couldn't attach to DCOP server!
when backup.sh is launched by amanda.
I interpret this error to mean that amanda does not have rights to use
dcop.
I, as user 1000 do, that command works without any reported error for me.
So, how do I add the backup group (or the user amanda) to the list of
users who can access dcop and send kmail a msg?
Thanks.

I just run rsync and then sleep 10800. If things are real busy before a
release I sleep 1800 instead.
Our servers all have a line for perpetual jobs in /etc/inittab so we
don't worry about the job dying and not respawning:
yp:12345:respawn:/root/perpetual
My bash script looks like this. You may prefer something a bit different.
Check with Slávek whether he prefers secondaries to pull from
tde-mirror.yosemite.net or whether he has an alias in his DNS that he
would prefer you to use.
MAILTO=someaddress(a)yosemite.net
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
AUX='--temp-dir=/ARCHIVE/TDE/trinity.temp/'
BWLIMIT=0
DST='/ARCHIVE/TDE/trinity/'
EXCLUSIONS=''
SRC='archive.trinitydesktop.net::trinity/'
su --shell=/bin/bash --command='(date; time
rsync --bwlimit='"${BWLIMIT}"' -aHv --delay-updates --delete --delete-after --max-delete=5000 '"${AUX}"' '"${EXCLUSIONS}"' '"${SRC}"' '"${DST}"';
df -h /ARCHIVE/TDE; date) 2>&1 | mail someaddress(a)yosemite.net -s "TDE
Sync"' -- www-data; sleep 10800
Mirrors are not expected to be perfect or secure. Missing files are
handled by a redirector and corrupted files are handled by signatures.
Then you'd need to configure your server to provide the files via at
least http and maybe also rsync. When ready tell Slávek and he'll
add you to the mirror list.
I also monitor my mirror with Nagios and a cronjob sends me a simple
daily status report with output from df and some checks on the
secondary mirrors.

Hi all,
the fifth service on the migration list is wiki.
-- Migration status --
A new wiki has been created, data from the existing one has been migrated.
User accounts have not been migrated, so users must create new ones.
-- What needs to be done --
A new TDE skin remains to be created.
Some wiki pages deserve to be updated - for example, Project RoadMap,
Nightly Builds,...
I have an idea that pages with information about individual applications
could be created in the wiki, so that an overview of these pages can
replace the list of applications, which is statically on the main web.
-- More ideas and suggestions?
Does everything work fine with the new mailing lists?
Do you have any other ideas and suggestions?
Cheers

I don't have that problem and I'm using Alie's roll.
Hunt for "firefox icons" on the net.

Greetings all;
From time to time, kmail does some expiry housekeeping duringthe nightly
amanda run, and the disappearing files make amanda spam the logs as
follows:

Is there a dbus command my amanda script can send to tell amanda to hold
off expiry till amanda is done?
Might be over an hour of expiry holdoff needed at times.
Thanks all;
Cheers, Gene Heskett
