[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.8 Upgrade: WebDAV GVFS has issues

by Adam Tauno Williams

I upgraded my workstation [nVidia x86_64] and primary laptop [Intel-GPU x86_64] openSUSE 12.3 boxes to GNOME 3.8 as described @ <http://dominique.leuenberger.net/blog/2013/04/gnome-3-8-for-opensuse-12-3-g…> Upgrade was smooth, and both are working. On the laptop [Intel-GPU] I had to also perform the Mesa upgrade, otherwise it was hopelessly donkers (as expected from the post). zypper ar obs://home:dimstar:Mesa/standard Mesa zypper dup --from Mesa Only problem I have now is that GVFS WebDAV seems quite broken. I can view a folder in Nautilus, but attempting to right-click open some file results in an error. GVFS appears to be dropping the initial part of the path so "/dav/Projects/MyProject/Documents/myfile.txt" results in a request for "/Projects/MyProject/Documents/myfile.txt". -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Widget packing issues in Wireshark

by Adam Tauno Williams

I'm not sure if this is a "GNOME" issue, it appears to be a Gtk issue, so I don't know if that counts. I'm seeing widget packing problems when using Wireshark, in dialogs some widgets are not expanding to fill the available area. Widget not packing correctly in the Follow TCP dialog <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=819148> I found a very similar but relating to the packet detail dialog. <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813180> -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Change YaST installation a bit and add a script about language setup

by Efstathios Iosifidis (aka diamond_gr)

Hello lizards, This might not be the right place to send this mail, but since I'm not subscribed to factory list (and I don't plan to suscribe), I would like to send here this idea. Please share it with factory or anyone else. For the past 3 releases we have language installation problem. If someone choose to install openSUSE, for example in Greek, the result will be half Greek and half English (picture: blue is in Greek and other is in English [1]). Although many people reported this bug to bugzilla [2] and [3], nothing changed. openSUSE 11.4 was the last release that worked fine (even from the very first screen by pressing F2 button). A proposal would be to change the fist screen of YaST installation, where it prompts for language. Change it to ONLY English. When everything is set, I see 2 solutions. 1. PCLinuxOS has an icon on the desktop (adlocale) that prompts you to install your language settings. I guess it's an easy script. 2. GNOME has GNOME initial setup [4]. You can also read an article about it [5]. The idea is that after the installation, you get a prompt to setup online accounts, timezone, new user account, small tour about GNOME etc. By the way, although it says that we'll see it on GNOME 3.8, I didn't see it on Milestone 4. The language installation can be done via YaST after installation (that's the solution we propose here). But it's better to be done automatically after installation. Something should be done about it since it's major issue to promote openSUSE. Marketing cannot cover end users. End users also don't read release notes. Many of my friends (that I helped to install openSUSE), they turned it to Linux Mint or Ubuntu (I guess for the simplicity they provide). Fedora and Ubuntu work fine with the language thing. Please do something about it. Thanks for reading.

[opensuse-gnome] Request for adding deja-dup to default GNOME pattern

by Atri

Hi! I would like to request the addition of the file backup and restoration software Deja Dup [1] to the default GNOME pattern for openSUSE 13.1. From what I have used, deja-dup is a feature rich but easy to use and integrated nicely with the GNOME desktop, including setting up the excellent "Restore missing files" context menu item in nautilus. It offers several ways to backup files, including to Amazon S3, Rackspace, by means of WebDAV, FTP, SSH and to a local folder (for example, on a separate HDD), and can be configured for automatic backups and so on. I believe there is space in the LiveUSB images to fill yet and deja-dup can be nicely accommodated [2] without hitting the 1 GiB limit that these images intend to be restricted to. Likewise this would also fit without any issues on the DVD as well. Please let me know what you think. Thanks a lot. [1] https://launchpad.net/deja-dup [2] On a vanilla installation of 13.1 M3, installing the application takes the following additional space: ``Overall download size: 2.7 MiB. After the operation, additional 14.4 MiB will be used'' -- Atri -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Latexila build fails with recent gtk (3.9.10) in Factory

by Atri

Hi! With gtk3 = 3.9.10 now in Factory, it seems the fallout of gtk stock items (STOCK.ADD, etc.) have been completely removed from the library which causes builds of latexila [1] to fail with errors such as this: gtkspell.c:395:29: error: 'GTK_STOCK_ADD' undeclared (first use in this function) For the full buildlog for the failed package see [2], for instance. I did add an upstream commit [3] that should have stopped disabling deprecated symbols during the building stage; however that did not succeed either, with the same error halting the build. I am not sure what is going on, since I believed deprecated symbols in gtk3 are expected to be not completely removed until gtk hits version 4, and should have only given warnings instead of errors. In fact only as of gtk3 version 3.9.8, this was compiling just fine. I would be very grateful if someone could point out a way, if it exists, to workaround this that does not involve porting the entire gtk*stock* usage to their current replacements (that seems to be a lot of work for upstream and would likely be impossible to fix before 13.1 feature freeze). Fwiw, I think (although, I may be wrong in assuming these are due to the same basic cause) there are several other packages that have been hit by the gtk3 3.9.10 update too, for instance, GNOME:Apps/emerillon, etc. Thanks a lot.

[opensuse-gnome] Hilfe

by johannes-hagemann＠t-online.de

Hallo Ich hoffe, ich erfahre hier Hilfe! Im Open suse Forum will mir keiner helfen! Bin erst mal totaler Laie, fahre nur mit open suse, weil ein Bekannter sagte, das sei eine unkomplizierte Kommuni.-Form! Habe heute erst mal über Gnome etwas gelesen, macht mir nämlich zu schaffen! Habe wohl bis jetzt eine KD- oberfläche gehabt, aber irgendwie ist mir Gnome da reingerutscht, weiß nicht wie! Auf jeden Fall kann ich nicht wie gewohnt ins Internet! Der PC verweigert mein PW und springt wieder zurück! Und dann der Hinweis, die Gnome Energieverwaltung sei nicht richtig installiert! Also ich habe keine Aufforderung erhalten, Gnome zu installieren! Können Sie mir helfen? Wäre schön! Gruß Johannes Hagemann -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

On GNOME Factory, running Yelp from the command line fails like this: yelp: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/libwebkitgtk-3.0.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZTVN8icu_51_213UnicodeStringE I ran 'zypper up' this morning and also manually updated the libwebkitgtk packages, but the problem remains.
