Kate, highlighting and File Associations
by J Leslie Turriff 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

I'm looking at Kate's highlighting feature and trying to figure out how it works with files that have no extension. If I load a bash script into Kate it appears with lovely highlighting, and looking in Settings => Configure Kate => Highlighting I see that it has somehow associated it with | application/x-shellscript;text/x-shellscript I don't understand how it does this, since, looking at the mime entry for this in KControl Center => TDE Components => File Associations, to be matched, files must have one of the .sh, .csh, or .bash extensions. The bash script has the so-called "magic number" | #!/bin/bash as its first line, but nothing in the Kate and File Associations handbooks mentions these, and there is no place in the Configure Kate dialog to make an association with a magic number. The reason I'm looking at this is that I use a different, more programmer-friendly language, Rexx, for my scripting. Like bash scripts, I use a "magic number", in this case | #!/usr/bin/rexx to associate the text/rexx mime type with these scripts instead of an extension; but Kate does not associate this mime type; the Highlighting entry is set to None for this file when it is loaded, and no highlighting occurs. How does Kate know what highlighting to use with a bash script that has no extension, and why doesn't that work for a Rexx script with no extension? N.B. the highlighting works for Rexx scripts with the extensions defined in File Associations, but unlike bash scripts, not without them, so the mime types are functional; but I don't want to have to put extensions on all of my Rexx scripts just because of this Kate weirdness.

Update-notifier applet
by midi-pascal 28 Aug '21

28 Aug '21

Hi all, Since the last TDE stable upgrade (many months ago), the update-notifier applet is not available anymore. Is there a good reason to have it removed from TDE or did it fell in a crack? It was useful to know if some updates are available in a simple way. I am missing this small and efficient little applet. Or is it part of a package I missed?

[devels] [mageia] invalid MD5SUM files

subscription to ML
by deloptes 19 Aug '21

19 Aug '21

Hi, it would be perhaps for Slavek to answer this, but may be someone here knows the answer too and can spare him the work. I recently did reorganize emails identities etc. and one part was to stop using the gmail account for writing to the lists and start using a private domain account. However I was not able to post for some time (work+vacation+many_other_activities). Now I went looking into the issue and noticed that this ML is managed on https://mail.trinitydesktop.org/mailman3/postorius/lists/ The information on the TDE web site seems to be newer than last time seen, but never mind, I subscribed the lists from the webui and voila - it is working now. It seems that using the subscription in Gmain is not working, because I tried subscribing from knode before and then on gmain.io, but in vain So the question in context of TDE is how the subscribe can work from knode for this list? For debian-user it worked in knode. IMO it seems that something needs to be done in gmain, so that gmain can forward the mail to trinitydesktop and trigger the subscription, but it's just a guess based on described experience. BR

[suse] why does trinity-tdelibs require wicked?
by Felix Miata 29 Jul '21

29 Jul '21

Wicked and NetworkManager are both unnecessary when using systemd-networkd, which I do in all Tumbleweed and 15.3 installations. Most TDE packages will not install without wicked installed, which seems to be hung on libtdecore.so* from trinity-tdelibs requiring wicked. What's so special about wicked that systemd-networkd isn't good enough network support to enable basic TDE/TDM packages to install? After re-installing wicked I was able to get another 69 Trinity packages installed. Afterward I force removed wicked, before starting TDM or a TDE session. Zypper -v produces no complaint about missing wicked. Rpm -q -R trinity-tdelibs output does not include wicked in output. TDM and TDE are apparently working as expected. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!

Status of TDE ARK timestamp for files in ZIP archive.
by Alec Destry 28 Jul '21

28 Jul '21

Unzip (unzip-5.52-77.x86_64.rpm), some years ago, when listing files in an archive, showed the timestamp for those files in the format of MM-DD-YY. The latest versions of unzip (unzip-6.00-89.1.x86_64.rpm), when listing files in an archive, shows the timestamp for those files in the format of YYYY-MM-DD. This change in how unzip shows timestamps has caused KDE3.5.10 ARK to show a messed up timestamp when viewing a ZIP archive using the latest versions of unzip. Rolling back to the older version of unzip gets rid of the problem. However, that could create other problems. Has this been fixed in TDE? Does TDE ARK show a valid timestamp when viewing a ZIP archive using the latest versions of unzip?

TDE with Debian Bullseye
by Mike Bird 26 Jul '21

26 Jul '21

Debian Bullseye is in deep freeze and scheduled for release 08/14. Often I wait until after release but this happened to be a good weekend for me to start testing Bullseye. The non-TDE parts went much smoother than usual. The only minor difficulty thus far was switching routing from Quagga to FRR. I see there's a TDE Bullseye version in trinity-sb. However if I test this I'd like to get back onto TDE stable as soon as possible. Any thoughts please on if I try trinity-sb/bullseye how much time or how difficult will it be to get back to TDE stable with Bullseye? Thanks, --Mike
