FreeBSD 13.0 Trinity Port: Update on pinentry-tqt error
by Hunter E. 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hey everyone, I am back once again. I've reinstalled FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE and am working on fixing the FBSD port of TDE as I go along with building it, recording everything that happens so that we may be able to end the weird snags that occur in it once and for all. I ran into the usual problem with pinentry-tqt where it stops and says to set MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes and try again. I ran it once again with MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE=yes and this time it stopped with different output and told me to run "aclocal", so I went into the pinentry-tqt work directory and did such. Now I went back to the big makefile where I was and started back. It made it much further and the output was different yet again, this time giving me more insight on what was going on. At this point I also found out you need to have the package 'texinfo' to avoid a "makeinfo not found" error. It looks like the problem is caused by libgpg-error in some way. I used the script tool to record the terminal output and attached it to this email. libgpg-error on my system is version 1.42, which is higher than the minimum version of 1.16 it says is needed so I am dumbfounded.

On maintaining message marks
by Gene Heskett 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Greetings all; One small item about kmail has bugged me for many years, and its time I fussed about it. The "it" I refer to is that when kmail rebuilds an index, it wipes out your carefully set message marks like "important" or "action item", losing those flags you set so it was easily findable later. The addition of the ability to save those, and search for them later by a better method than visually scanning the message list looking for those marks, would be the most usefull addition to kmails abilities I can imagine. Thank you. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Vivaldi/Chromium printing in grayscale
by Edward 06 Sep '21

06 Sep '21

Since the upgrade to Debian 11 and TDE 14.0.11-pre, if I try to print something using either the Vivaldi (using stable or snapshot) or Chromium browsers, it prints to the HP printer in grayscale. Only Firefox and Thunderbird will correctly print in color. The printer is connected to the PC via Ethernet, this is the only way Chromium and Vivaldi will see the printer, but in the TDE Control Center, the printer is listed twice, once with the local IP address and one without. The entry with the IP address was added using HPLIP. If I remove both entries and use TDE to connect the printer via USB, the Vivaldi and Chromium browsers do not see the printer, the only print option is to Save to PDF. Firefox and Thunderbird still see them fine. HPLIP will not otherwise install the printer via USB (something called avahi-browser is missing). However, it appears TDE is automatically installing the printer regardless of the connection, without any user intervention. Is this grayscale issue, a known issue?? Thanks. -- Linux.

Firefox sound question.
by Γιώργος Κωστόπουλος 05 Sep '21

05 Sep '21

Hi! :-) I'm using Firefox from repositories without any problem. Just out of curiosity, I downloaded from Mozilla site, the latest version I unpacked and ran it. Everything seems to work fine, except sound. It seems to be unable, to play any kind of sound. Does anyone know anything related? TIA! G.

Kmail connections
by Edward 05 Sep '21

05 Sep '21

Hi everyone. I'm not too happy that neither Debian nor the Ubuntuzilla repository have made Thunderbird 91 (now on 91.0.3) available after almost a month since 91.0 was released. I obviously do not know what could be holding it up. Does TDE's KMail offer persistent/cached (?) connections like Thunderbird does - with the app open/minimized if an e-mail comes in (IMAP accounts), it's automatically retrieved?

Gitea question.
by Γιώργος Κωστόπουλος 05 Sep '21

05 Sep '21

Hi! :-) Does someone know about the bug tracker on gitea: Is it possible to have mail notifications? I have activated the related options, but no mail notifications. Only if you login to gitea, it informs you of any messages you have. This way, some developer may request from you additional information, but you'll never know (unless you login to gitea). G.

Change "Create New" file templates
by Echedey López Romero 03 Sep '21

03 Sep '21

Good night. I have been curious about how to change the "Create New" file templates. Other DE uses files found at ~/Templates/ but it is not the case of KDE 3.5 or TDE. How could I change the templates showed at user level? -- Regards, Echedey, Lopez Romero () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
