BlagovestPetrov[as far as I understand, they changed the CPU because the old one was out of stock09:21
WizzupBlagovestPetrov[: yeah we know these10:10
BlagovestPetrov[:)10:10
WizzupBlagovestPetrov[: I have the fxtec pro (not the 1x)10:10
Wizzupmainline is not quite there yet, it's expensive, too10:10
Wizzupbut it's a neat device10:10
BlagovestPetrov[yeah10:10
uvos__Wizzup: did you ever get your fxtec back?10:19
Wizzupuvos__: yes10:20
WizzupI have it here10:20
uvos__ah good10:20
freemangordonWizzup: how expensive?10:23
freemangordon741 eur for 256+810:26
freemangordonI remember n900 was ~450 eur 12 years ago10:26
Wizzupfreemangordon: I don't think the original fxtec is avail anymore10:26
Wizzupthe fxtec pro 1x mainline status also isn't quite the same10:26
freemangordonok, I was about to comment on the prise anyways10:27
freemangordonprice10:27
freemangordonactually I may order one as a replacement to my n90010:27
freemangordononce it is better supported upstream10:28
Wizzupfreemangordon: might need to get bigger pockets then :P10:35
Wizzup(for the phone)10:35
uvos__nah10:35
uvos__his purse gets proportionally smaller, freeing up space10:35
Wizzupmaybe if he pays in coins10:36
freemangordon;)10:36
WizzupI've tried to put all things that I consider 'important' for the core of the os here: https://github.com/maemo-leste/bugtracker/milestone/3011:06
Wizzupplease feel free to move tickets there or add tickets as you see fit11:06
buZzoooo battery arrives today13:08
Wizzupuvos__: freemangordon: BlagovestPetrov[: I'm looking now at python-gconf, which relies on pygtk and pycairo and pygobject, all of which have their python2 versions removed from buster13:34
WizzupI can look at building the packages, and then only their py2 versions, or we can try to just import them from the previous debian pkgs13:34
WizzupI think it's probably good to see if we can build them13:35
Wizzuppycairo wants pytest which is gone, and this pkg wants like a million other python 2 packages :)13:39
BlagovestPetrov[phew13:39
Wizzupwell it wants pytest only during build13:40
BlagovestPetrov[what about a C program in ./debian instead of the script? :D13:40
BlagovestPetrov[statically linked13:40
Wizzupdoesn't scale13:41
uvos__how often is python-gconf used?13:42
uvos__maybe we can just replace those instances with something that uses gconfs native interfaces?13:42
uvos__or ist that what BlagovestPetrov[ is suggesting13:42
Wizzupthat's not what he was suggesting13:42
Wizzupcurrently it's icd2 using it13:42
Wizzupwell, no13:43
Wizzupit's maemo-system-services13:43
Wizzup~/maemo-leste $ grep python-gconf */debian/control13:43
Wizzupmaemo-system-services/debian/control:Depends: python-gconf13:43
Wizzupand from my cloned repos it's only this13:43
Wizzupbut I would not be surprised if some of our extras repos use it13:43
uvos__ok that dosent sound insane to just write a few tiny c binarys that do whatever those scrips did13:43
WizzupI rewrote the bash version we had because it was buggy13:44
WizzupI have pycairo build now with only py2 versions13:45
Wizzuplooking at pygtk now13:45
BlagovestPetrov[we can check how it was implemented in mate desktop13:47
Wizzuphonestly we're just in a hard place13:47
Wizzupno python3 for gtk2 which is really annoying13:47
Wizzupthat's the root cause here really13:47
Wizzupwell that and gconf :)13:47
WizzupI'll bbl13:49
WizzupI can build pygtk without numpy and then we're mostly there I think13:49
buZzso we'll need to put 'all of python2 packages' into leste?13:50
Wizzupno, I did not say that13:51
WizzupI can probably build the minimal pkgs we need, but we might want to think about other ways to deal with this13:52
buZzah ok13:53
WizzupI also want to get rid of py2 really :)13:53
Wizzupbut then what do we do :)13:53
Wizzupbbl13:53
BlagovestPetrov[I asked in #mate :)13:56
BlagovestPetrov[but they are not active :D14:15
Wizzupok, I have an importable gconf module20:30
Wizzup(with pygobject 2, pycairo, pygtk, ...)20:30
uvosmind if i delete obsolete branches from droid4-linux?20:36
Wizzupwhich?20:40
WizzupI'd rather keep them20:40
Wizzupat least the tags and stuff20:41
uvosanything <5.10 random obsolete branches like maemo-5.18-callstest branches like droid4-pending-v5.11 that are mearly clones of branches developed externally20:42
uvosthe repo is20:42
uvosum a mes20:42
uvoss20:42
Wizzupwell some of it can be used for searches later, no?20:52
uvosnot sure what you would search there that isent in the other branches21:03
Wizzupuvos: upgraded23:43
Wizzupworks good so far23:43
