DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:48:34] <Centurion_Dan> I proposed a Code of Conduct recently for the NZ Open Source Society, because all the others were far too wordy to be useful and effective.00:56
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:48:45] <djph> ... it's too bad "do unto others..." and/or "seriously, don't be a dick" aren't good enough.00:56
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:49:05] <djph> or rather, aren't seen as "good enough"00:56
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:49:18] <openfbtd> djph, but they are. “There are no rules. There are no rules about moderation either, enjoy your ban.” :)00:56
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:50:22] <openfbtd> Conduct rules hurt communities more than they help, because when you have rules, you have a whole other class of trolls who game the system while technically not breaking any.00:56
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:50:22] <Centurion_Dan> It basically boiled down to that simple don't be a dick, and if you are a dick then we will deal appropriately with you if somebody complains about it.00:56

OksanaTelepathy sometimes swallows some of the recent incoming (not outcoming) messages in a conversation, and tried to forget name of the sender (Conversation title becomes " (xx)" where xx is number of unread messages). Probably caused by very large total number of messages in the conversation. Unpleasant bug...01:28

OksanaMussorgsky: take a look at ExFalso if you wish. ExFalso is not a competitor due to futuristic Python dependencies, but some of its code could give ideas on how to add more features to Mussorgsy (like Track Number, or something)01:35
* Oksana is looking at id3lib , meanwhile01:37
*** florian has quit IRC01:44
Oksanadep: libid3-3.8.3c2a  What kind of dependency is that?! /EasyTag in wheezy/ There is libid3tag0 0.15.1b in Maemo 5, how do they even correspond?..01:46
OksanaOkay, this libid3-3.8.3c2a I can just fetch, it has no additional dependencies of its own01:47
OksanaIt's easier to add Wheezy repository and install EasyTag than download one or two dozens of dependencies. But at least, all of them should be doable? Hopefully01:52

DocScrutinizer05  social justice warrior?02:41
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:55:52] <fsmithred> benevolent dictatorship is very useful and appropriate in some situations02:43
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:56:05] <djph> (1) "Don't Panic" (2) "Don't be a dick" (3) "If you're deemed to being a dick, mods will ban you"02:43
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:56:07] <openfbtd> Basically it's the “spirit of the law” vs “word of the law”02:43
DocScrutinizer05[2016-06-01 Wed 14:56:49] <Centurion_Dan> Not really neccesarily, but in the NZOSS case we had to shut down the CoC discussion because it was turning into the sort of flamewar that would require a CoC to clean up the casualties.02:43
*** Oksanaa has joined #maemo03:01
OksanaaWhat the?.. libfontconfig1 from wheezy requires sysvinit-utils, which conflicts upstart. Why would libfontconfig1 require sysvinit-utils, anyway?03:02
*** Cor-Ai has quit IRC03:08
*** Cor-Ai has joined #maemo03:11
DocScrutinizer05good question03:25
DocScrutinizer05aversion against systemd? ;-)03:26
OksanaaThe difference in versions is small, 2.6.0 vs 2.9.0. And they should conflict systemd then, instead of locking onto sysv03:26
DocScrutinizer05hehe, just kidding03:27
DocScrutinizer05install it, breaking dependencies, then see what unmet dependevies show up during runtime03:27
Oksanaahow do I tell apt-get to ignore dependencies? ah, I know, aptitude03:28
DocScrutinizer05--force?03:28
DocScrutinizer05dunno03:28
DocScrutinizer05prolly apt is not suited for that03:28
DocScrutinizer05dpkg -i03:29
DocScrutinizer05my uneducated guess would be it depends on started X11 or sth, which in turn brings in some sysv-init based handling scheme03:29
DocScrutinizer05maybe the explanation is as simple as "it comes with a startscript, to restore font settings during boot"03:31
Oksanaadpkg -i requires having not only libfontcondig1, but all other dependencies of it? could be an option though... easier than dpkg -i easytag03:31
Oksanaawell, how did they handle it before?03:32
DocScrutinizer05before what?03:32
DocScrutinizer05(not that I had a faintest chance to answer that question)03:33
Oksanaalibfontconfig 2.6.0 is on maemo, no problems. it's 2.9.0 from wheezy which is problematic03:33
Oksanaalibfontconfig1*03:33
DocScrutinizer05aah, you mean "how is it handled by genuine maemo fontconfig?"03:34
DocScrutinizer05well, I guess it has some patches so it gets started by upstart or even by X11, or dunno what they did03:35
Oksanaawhat?.. sysvinit-utils 2.86.ds1-60maemo103:35
Oksanaaaptitude thinks that downgrading solves everything mp-fremantle-community-pr [21.2011.38-1Tmaemo11+thumb0 (community-thumb, now) -> 20.2010.36-2maemo8 (fremantle)]03:36
DocScrutinizer05I pass03:37
Oksanaaof course, it involves removing way too many packages (including mediaplayer) so not acceptable03:39
Oksanaatrying  aptitude install libfontconfig103:39
OksanaaI guess that getting easytag to work may in the end require porting it to maemo03:40
Oksanaajust because of its way-too-many dependencies03:41
DocScrutinizer05well, when easytag is some GUI program...03:49
DocScrutinizer05never heard of it03:49
Oksanaait's gtk+ program, without python, and depends on id3lib which is already on maemo, for tag editing. and somebody seriously overcomplicated its dependencies list03:51
Oksanaaaka mussorgsky, only without python or mutagen03:51

fishbulbhow many poeple are actually buying a neo900 ?07:12
fishbulband is the hope that a new userbase will come along and create software for it?07:14
fishbulbor the existing stuff will be ported or what07:15
luke-jrfishbulb: AFAIK the point of the Neo900 design using an ancient SoC is to maintain N900 compatibility07:16
luke-jrbut DocScrutinizer05 would be the one to ask07:16
luke-jrpersonally, I'm going with Pyra07:16
fishbulbthere's no way I'm buying a neo900, or basically any phone, I'm just wondering what that project has as goals and expectations07:17
fishbulbthe board was old when that project started07:18
fishbulbhow much is the pyra07:19
*** Venemo has quit IRC07:20
fishbulbthe pandora was ludicrously expensive and there are only 3d renderings of the pyra07:20
luke-jrfishbulb: no, there are prototypes of the Pyra too07:21
luke-jrhttps://www.pyra-handheld.com/wiki/index.php?title=Comparison_Chart07:21
*** ashneo76 has joined #maemo07:34
Oksanafishbulb: Generally, it's hoped that old users of N900 will migrate to Neo900 (when N900 devices disintegrate with time) and new people will join the community due to lack of dev-oriented (like, with hardware keyboard) phones; privacy-conscious (and paranoid) people also do not have much choice in modern market, and may come to get Neo900 and-or Pyra in order to have control over cellular modem.07:37
Oksana~fptf07:37
infobotextra, extra, read all about it, fptf is the Fremantle Porting Task Force, see http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=9130807:37
Oksana^ That's about porting (and upgrading?) old software to new hardware07:38
fishbulbthis is kind of worse than even a kickstarter07:39
fishbulbbasically all kickstarters fail becuase mass production isn't the same as making a few prototypes, at 900 euro or whatever, I could buy... a car? a flagship device, and root it, install debian and whatever else I wanted... or that07:40
fishbulbin saying so, I still use an n900, but LOTS of them were made by nokia, and ALL of them passed nokia's build quality standards, then were supported for a while07:41
fishbulbit would be good if more people were able to be objective about their projects.07:42
OksanaIt's objective. Neither Nokia or Microsoft are going to support N900. Community still updates software for N900. And the team ports this software to Neo900.07:48
OksanaBuild quality standard is excellent, have a look at Openmoko aka GTA04 (if I remember correctly) to know the build quality. Made in Germany, by the way.07:49
OksanaNot all flagship devices are root-able, and even those which support multi-boot, will hardly have the same thought put into them. The same ability to monitor modem transmissions, and power down the modem on user's request. And isolation of modem from other parts of the system.07:50
OksanaThere is also thought put into overcoming nokia's known issues, such as some SIM-related-chip separating from motherboard and requiring hot-air to make it work again07:52
OksanaAnd don't get me started on sensors. Pressure, temperature and humidity; stylus detector (to avoid losing stylus)...07:56

fishbulbI carried a giant slow cooker to the place I bought it from, exchanged it, bought groceries and walked back08:52

fishbulbone has a broken usb port, and it's 8 years later08:53
fishbulbthe other has a failing usb port, one has a keyboard that's pretty worn, zero of those issues you said I've ever experienced, several other people didn't either who got theirs roughly the same time as mine08:55
fishbulbif I have to replace this phone, I wouldn't spend 1/20 of the neo900 price08:56

ceenemodest breaks itself sometime16:17
ceeneafter receiving maybe a bad formatted email, or maybe just a strangely (but standard compliant) email, it starts not knowing what an email is16:18
ceenebreaking headers, not being able to show the content, mistaking subject with sender or recipient... general parsing errors all over the place16:18
ceeneah, it's been in fact after receiving a linux-kernel mailing list email16:18
ceeneso i don't reckon it's misformated16:18

ceenethey are only slightly better than modest, plus they don't have maemo integration so they must be running at all times, there's no notification on new email, can't use exchange... so it's just a workaround as useful as VNCing into a remote system to read email16:40

bencohdoes it use mbox?17:52
bencohor some other format (maildir, mh ....)?17:52
bencohbecause a malformated mbox could explain ceene's issues17:52
DocScrutinizer05I'd think this should be simple to answer... *if* you got a modest running17:57
DocScrutinizer05looks like maildir18:00
DocScrutinizer05but only 'looks like', I didn't verify it actually is18:00
DocScrutinizer05 /home/user/.modest/cache/mail/maildir/home/user/.modest/local_folders18:01
bencohanyway, not mbox18:01
bencohso prolly not what I was thinking about18:01
DocScrutinizer05still it could use a mbox or even database in the end18:01
DocScrutinizer05ooh yeah, and then there was this (look closely)  /home/user/.modest/cache/mail/maildir/media/mmc1/.modest/local_folders18:03
