Having a problem compiling tdepim libs for Gentoo packaging
by E. Liddell 18 Mar '16

18 Mar '16

The short version: some auxiliary build commands are trying to touch directories the package manager doesn't want them to touch, resulting in sandbox violation failures of the following format: === VERSION 1.0 FORMAT: F - Function called FORMAT: S - Access Status FORMAT: P - Path as passed to function FORMAT: A - Absolute Path (not canonical) FORMAT: R - Canonical Path FORMAT: C - Command Line F: mkdir S: deny P: /root/.trinity A: /root/.trinity R: /root/.trinity C: /usr/trinity/14/bin/tdeconfig_compiler /var/tmp/portage/trinity-base/libkcal-14.0.0/work/tdepim/libkcal/htmlexportsettings.kcfg /var/tmp/portage/trinity-base/libkcal-14.0.0/work/tdepim/libkcal/htmlexportsettings.kcfgc === I've attacked a full build log for libtdepim which ends in a couple of failures of the same type. The long(er) version: Gentoo is a source distribution, so Gentoo packages are more or less glorified build scripts. The package manager creates a per-package sandbox in /var/tmp/portage/ which is used during build and install to keep failures from spewing files all over the system. For some reason, both tdeconfig_compiler and maketdewidgets are trying to do a mkdir in (probably) ~/.trinity . They don't, as far as I can tell, put anything in the resulting directories. Regardless, this breaks the sandbox and the build can't complete. This is in 14.0.0, but if there's been a commit that has changed any of this since then, I can't find it. It's possible that there's an additional CMake variable I need to set, in which case feel free to hit me over the head with it. Otherwise, I need some way of either redirecting those mkdir commands so that they land inside the sandbox, or keeping them from being issued in the first place. E. Liddell

Git mirror to use
by Fat-Zer 17 Mar '16

17 Mar '16

I'm wondering, if something changed over years. Which mirror I supposed to use for scripts which meant to be used to build trinity on end-user machines from source (gentoo ebuilds)? Now I use http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/<package name>. Is it correct, or there is something better? I don't think it will make a high load any day, unless TDE will become anyway popular, but you never know and it's better to ask...

CMake × tquic
by Slávek Banko 16 Mar '16

Hi Fat-Zer, all, I saw that in CMake processing of UIC files is a called command with redirect of output. I think that's not the ideal way. Therefore, I propose to modify it so that it will be used CMake method of processing outputs. See proposed patch. Cheers -- Slávek

[patch]Initial cmake conversion for k3b
by Fat-Zer 13 Mar '16

Unlike autotools this one doesn't installs headers. Why may we need k3b headers in system? Is there something linking against it? If so, I'll add install statements for them... Also it doesn't installs k3bsetup2 by default because mostly every modern linux have sane permissions to allow user to burn cd's whithout such hacky crap. +musepack is disabled due to k3b doesn't builds against recent versions (tested with 465)

TQT DBus
by deloptes 10 Mar '16

10 Mar '16

Hi The context to my questions is the project I started about integrating syncevolution in TDE. I finished the basic plugin part and would like to write the platform part, which seems to use dbus from within the plugin to provide password read/write in the tdewallet. 1. Question what would be the best place to start reading about using dbus from within trinity? What is the preferred library to use for the future - it says dbus-1-tqt is qt4 bindings backport? I guess the dbus-tqt should serve my needs as I'm targeting the TDE wallet, but still I would appreciate some advise. http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/dbus-tqt/ http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/dbus-1-tqt/ http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/kdbusnotification/ 2. Question For Calendar/Todo/Memo and Addressbook we hit some issue in syncevolution that child sends via dbus the final sync report message to the parent but the return message does not result in the defined callback and both parent and child are stuck. Patrick Ohly from Syncevolution is looking into it but I think asking here is worth in this case. Are you aware of some side effects in DBus context when used in Trinity? Are there some recommendations - examples, application code? thanks in advance

HI all, FWIW I like the "Trefoil Knot" as a new logo for Trinity. Sure it needs to reflect the right style and colours. My 2p worth. -- Best Regards: Baron

TDE Powersave -- some clarification needed (not only in my mind -- in the docs too)
by Thomas Maus 27 Feb '16

27 Feb '16

TDE Powersave offers 4 states according to the source (factually 3 on my system): * Suspend2RAM -- this is obvious * Suspend2Disk -- obvious, too * Freeze -- hmm, anybody knowing what this actually is? (in the code it uses the Suspend2RAM icons but calls it's own method) * Standby -- according help this is either a DPMS screen standby with the system otherwise running on power or combined with a Suspend2RAM??? What is it really? And I'm wondering where my most favourite suspend mode is hidden: "Suspend2Both" aka "Hybrid Suspend" This mode sets up the swap area as for Suspend2Disk AND then does a Suspend2RAM. The net effect is, that you normally have quick resume from RAM, but should power fail, nothing is lost as you can resume from disk. Essentially a failsafe suspend ... Its the only suspend-mode I you for desktop systems, and my prefered mode for laptop lid-close action as it always does "the right thing" (at little cost). So, is "Freeze"="Suspend2Both" or can we introduce "Suspend2Both" (if the machine and swap configs allows)? ciao, ThoMaus
