Planet DebianPlanet Debian - http://planet.debian.org/Matthew Garrett: My trip to Istanbul by Matthew Garrett aged 28 and 4365ths- July 13, 2008 SaturdayArrive at Heathrow. Richard gets to be my special lounge buddy - we later discover Bastien sitting outside looking like a lost puppy. Flight is delayed by a mere hour, so we get to the hotel with little trouble and check in. Dinner with Luis and co on pillows on the street. This becomes a recurring theme. Drinking is involved. This also becomes a recurring theme. People complain about my shortcut finding skills.SundaySee beautiful things. Thankful to finally get to see buildings older...http://mjg59.livejournal.com/93770.html Bastian Venthur: Porting rng to QT4- July 13, 2008 Today I was busy porting reportbug-ng to QT4. One really cool thing I noticed is the new QWebView widget, which is the main widget of the QWebKit module. It works surprisingly easy compared to the good old QTextBrowser of QT3 &8212; now you can just throw an URL at it and it will render the page nicely complete with CSS, images, etc. Here&8217;s the obligatory screenshot: as you can see, the bugreport looks much better than in the old version of rng. WebKit does a really good job rendering the.http://blog.venthur.de/2008/07/13/porting-rng-to-qt4/ Jonathan McDowell: Too many secrets- July 13, 2008 FFS. If you're running a forum site (Ubuntu Forums, I'm currently looking at you, though you're not the only offender), please don't require logins to download attachments. It's really annoying and I'm fed up of having to create user accounts I'll only ever use once.http://www.earth.li/~noodles/blog/2008/07/too-many-secrets.html Lior Kaplan: How many projects can you identify- July 13, 2008 (taken from http:www.freebsdnews.net20080311open-source-community-united)http://liorkaplan.wordpress.com/2008/07/13/how-much-projects-can-you-identify/ Christian Perrier: In Bruges- July 13, 2008 Good movie. Two great irish actors (Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson), a wonderful fuckin' city which is just like a fairy tale and a quite crazy story. A few hilarious moments, the best of which for me being that sentence (transcript from my understanding): "Bruges is not too crowded. Would it be elsewhere than in Belgium, it would be overcrowded". And the film even features the two actors facing 'The Last Judgement' by Hyeronymus Bosch, a triptych where I remember spending more than one...http://www.perrier.eu.org/weblog/2008/07/13#in-bruges Romain Beauxis: Spip package- July 13, 2008 I've just uploaded a new package for the SPIP content management webapp. SPIP is a very powerfull CMS made by a team of french coders. It is widely used in the french-speaking part of internet, used in thousands of sites, ranging from personal home page to professional publication websites. SPIP is somehow not well known in the eglish-speaking world, probably because most of the things happen in French... However, it's fully translated and documented in English, as well as many other (...)http://blog.rastageeks.org/spip.php?article6 Matt Brown: Ubuntu versions numbers on crack- July 13, 2008 On hardy after the latest round of updates: mattkrypton:$ dpkg -s flashplugin-nonfree grep Version Version: 10.0.1.218+10.0.0.525ubuntu1hardy1+really9.0.124.0ubuntu2 Granted this package is in hardy-backports not hardy proper, but still, what on earth!!http://www.mattb.net.nz/blog/2008/07/14/ubuntu-versions-numbers-on-crack/ Wouter Verhelst: New toy- July 13, 2008 While all of Belgium is buzzing over the fact that now the iPhone is being sold here, in compliance with the law against coupled sales (i.e., not simlocked), I couldn't care less. Instead, I bought me something far more useful than a cell phone that wants to be a PDA. (occasionally, the poem is one of the better-known poems by expressionist poet Paul van Ostaijen, my favourite in the Dutch language) This is a Hanlin V3 e-book reader. I found that I was reading way too much text on the 'net,...http://www.grep.be/blog/en/computer/play/hanlin Russell Coker: New SE Linux Policy for Lenny- July 13, 2008 I have just uploaded new SE Linux policy packages for DebianUnstable which will go into Lenny (provided that the FTP masters approve the new packages in time). The big change is that there are no longer separate packages for strict and targeted policies. There is now a package named selinux-policy-default which has the features of both strict and targeted. When you install it you get the features of targeted. If you want the strict features then you need to run the following commands as...http://etbe.coker.com.au/2008/07/13/new-se-linux-policy-lenny/ Rob Bradford: Clutter 0.8 Packages- July 13, 2008 Packages for Clutter 0.8 have been uploaded to the Debian archive and to the OpenedHand Debian repository. There are packages available for Debian unstable and Ubuntu hardy (no gutsy i&8217;m afraid, glib is too old.) And in completely unrelated news thanks to everyone involved in the organisation of GUADEC: Good work guys!http://www.robster.org.uk/blog/2008/07/13/clutter-08-packages/ |
