schestowitz-pi2tidying up today, found out that KDE Plasma in debian 11 still has some new bugsMar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2the same ones i noticed in kde neon, which is more cutting-edgeMar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2notably in the efforts to "reinvent" window- and app-specific settingsMar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2like opacity for application x, hide title in window y...Mar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2the new interface is not badMar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2but it has bugs that lead to non-fatal glitchesMar 14 04:08
schestowitz-pi2at least no reboot is requiredMar 14 04:09
techrights[sec]\Mar 14 04:14
schestowitz-pi2remember debian lost its kde maintainerMar 14 04:15
schestowitz-pi2because sarah sharpe deemed it offensive when the 'wrong' prounounc was usedMar 14 04:15
schestowitz-pi2to defend t'soMar 14 04:15
techrights[sec]So trolls at Debian have helped kill the distro a little more.  The reason  Mar 14 04:16
techrights[sec]they attack all the people is because Debian is the root of (at last count)Mar 14 04:16
techrights[sec]well over 350 downstream distros.Mar 14 04:16
schestowitz-pi2having said that, he now works with arch linusMar 14 04:18
schestowitz-pi2i look at it like thisMar 14 04:18
schestowitz-pi2when you succeed, they attack more viciously Mar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2remember steamos changed from debian to archMar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2the split may be widening between coc trolls and actual communityMar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2the important thing is, keep the community goingMar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2TR, i think, gives it s avoiceMar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2OSI is the voice of coc trollsMar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2calling normal people "he/him"Mar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2arch uses kde, steamos uses kde, debian's kde personis still activeMar 14 04:19
techrights[sec]Good, that.Mar 14 04:19
techrights[sec]One thing to worry about are "Flatpaks" because the attitude behing them Mar 14 04:19
techrights[sec]is that the developers themselves should waste their time and skill doingMar 14 04:19
techrights[sec]packaging rather than what they like and are good at and no one else can do.Mar 14 04:19
techrights[sec]Thus Flatpaks weaken the distro ecosystem.Mar 14 04:19
schestowitz-pi2flatpaks solve a real issueMar 14 04:21
schestowitz-pi2but leave cruft and dupes all over the placeMar 14 04:21
schestowitz-pi2they solve a problem by creating other problemsMar 14 04:21
techrights[sec]I remain unconvinced as to the general benefits of static linking forMar 14 04:22
techrights[sec]the default.  Snaps destroy.  A few years ago a distro would take up a fewMar 14 04:22

techrights[sec]The -d takes no option.  The first argument is the file name to de-duplicate.Mar 14 06:47
techrights[sec]Any subsequent arguments (and there must be at least one) are the sourcesMar 14 06:47
techrights[sec]files of the duplicates.  So, in links it is used like this:Mar 14 06:47

schestowitz-pi2i have it working nowMar 14 06:49
schestowitz-pi2this works for certain files, like rrrr filesMar 14 06:49

techrights[sec]excellentMar 14 06:50
techrights[sec]yes only those with the structure originating from template.html from GitMar 14 06:50
techrights[sec]If it works on rrrrr.py's output then that is a happy flukeMar 14 06:50
techrights[sec]Should have /different/ file names for argumentsMar 14 06:50

techrights[sec]hmm the actual de-duplication part is not working ... if the file points at   Mar 14 07:04
techrights[sec]itself; it does seem to work if the files are different; Mar 14 07:04
techrights[sec]Ah, there is a check in the script to prevent the file from pointing   Mar 14 07:04
techrights[sec]at itself and thus cancelling out the whole thingMar 14 07:04
