    You're the only name in the log. (-:

    git.parabola.nu/abslibre.git/t

    I'm just giving the packagers (those that I know about and are easily contactable, at any rate) a tap on the shoulder before the rest of the world explicitly learns that #redo 1.5 is up.

    jdebp.uk/Softwares/redo/

    (Po-Chuan Hsieh of #FreeBSD is still using a URL that has not worked since Brexit. 17 million people voted that I should not have my domain name. (-:)

    @schmonz

    #djbwares 10 is next.

  2. OK, I've added 1e1 conversions to github.com/LukeShu/inferno-man . And so I've emailed the cat-v.org mailing list about those maybe being better than what's currently on man.cat-v.org

    #catv #InfernoOS #retrocomputing #archival

  6. Yesterday:
    - Between the power being out & my brain being broken, not much

    Today:
    - Updated lukeshu.com/imworkingon/ to get "last updated" for pipermail mailinglist archives
    - Wrote some notes on email message threading lukeshu.com/blog/message-threa
    - Wrote a bit at lukeshu.com/imworkingon/ about why this week's work on is important.

    If any of this seems useful or important to you, plz consider throwing a few dollars my way lukeshu.com/sponsor/

  7. What I did yesterday, what I'm hopefully wrapping up today:

    - Tracking down where all of the bundled files in came from, and writing tooling to keep track of them: fosstodon.org/@lukeshu/1125671

  8. @schmonz @lukeshu

    I actually looked for contact details for Po-Chuan Hsieh, for the FreeBSD port, so that I could let xem know how messed up that port was; as I noted before. But there's only a wildly (a decade) out of date LinkedIn listing and an opaque FreeBSD account.

    The Parabola packaging of redo is several versions out of date, and has the pre-pre-Brexit URLs. Arch is on 1.4 at least but using the pre-Brexit URLs.

    I don't even know about Void, Hyperbola, et al.

    #redo #djbwares #nosh

  9. @schmonz @lukeshu

    I think that you possibly hadn't noticed before because it wasn't NetBSD; but now I've ported all three of #redo, #djbwares, and #nosh to NetBSD (testing on a non-amd64 architecture, no less!), as you've probably seen over the past few months. So now there's a system for building #NetBSD packages alongside Debian's, FreeBSD's, and OpenBSD's.

  10. @schmonz @lukeshu

    It has always been capable of building its own packages, by the way. (And since it's slashpackage, one can by design just package/compile it self-contained and not do the subsequent packaging step.)

    jdebp.uk/FGA/slashpackage.html

    It's not a Debian thing. Quite the opposite. For a long time no-one packaged any of this at all, so I made packages for people myself. Even now, no-one at all packages djbwares and there is only one that packages nosh.

    #redo

  11. @schmonz @lukeshu

    I'm curious how knowledge of the 1.5 source archive even reached any packagers.

    That was not listed on the WWW pages at all but only on a GOPHER site that's explicitly for people to get bonus content such as access to in-development source, and comes with an explicit warning in the GOPHER menu.

    The published source archives listed on the WWW, as well as the GitHub snapshot, were still at 1.4. I had only just ticked them over to 1.5 when I sent that nudge out. (-:

    #redo

  12. In by default a backtrace shows not just the $pc and function name, but also which objfile that pc/func are in. Like "exename" or "libc.so" or whatever. Is there a way to get to do this? (Or am I going to have to submit a patch myself? :P )

  13. Something I miss about the old #Identica is how weirdly well it ranked on Google. Like I could dent something like "The factory service manual doesn't mention it, but when removing the passenger-side CV axle on a 2000 #Infiniti #i30 you need to unbolt the support bearing (part 22 in the diagram) from the support bracket (part 23)" and somehow that dent would suddenly be in the top 5 results for "2000 infiniti i30 cv axle". On #Mastodon sharing such information feels like shouting into the void.

  15. @matt The stipple was great when first configuring LCD displays. It would be instantly clear whether you got the resolution correct or not (Moiré & other artifacts or no). I never found another pattern that worked so well for that. When I did IT circa 2010 I had a little 4x4 .png of it I'd carry around on thumb drive to set the background to even on Windows computers to verify the resolution.

  16. What I've been doing the last 3 days:
    - Working on a `./bootstrap` for ...

    What I'm doing today:
    - ...finished and sent it! sourceware.org/pipermail/binut
    - Finally responding to feedback on other changes I've sent off.

  17. @[email protected]
    I've tracked down where *almost* all the bundled files in
    came from; pinning down

    1 rev of autoconf
    1 rev of gettext
    1 rev of libtool
    1 rev of readline
    2 revs of automake
    2 revs of GNU config
    2 revs of texinfo
    2 revs of gnulib
    2 revs of zlib
    7 revs of GCC

    Still TODO: (not hard, just not done yet)

    config.rpath
    config/ChangeLog
    config/ax_lib_socket_nsl.m4
    config/bootstrap-hwasan.mk
    ltmain.sh
    readline/readline/support/config.rpath
    readline/readline/support/mkinstalldirs

  18. ltmain.sh isn't a source file, it's the compiled output of a bunch of m4 code from libtool. The version of ltmain.sh in does not correspond to any version of the libtool sources (release tarballs or libtool.git). We don't have the Complete Corresponding Source to binutils' ltmain.sh! :P

    (It has a --no-finish flag that no libtool sources have ever had.)

  19. Sending the worker SIGCHLD doesn't help. I'm not sure how libruby sets up the signal handlers.

    I'm now trying dropping `processes=4` from the config and only using rbthreads. If that doesn't solve the issue, then I'll try dropping `master=true`.

  20. Progress made on figuring out the lockups. Sometimes when doing `sub process expansion`, rb_f_backquote gets stuck in waitpid_wait, even though the process has exited and is now a zombie. So then that worker process stops being able to do work. Eventually all 's workers have this happen, and all requests become 504s. Eventually the buffer of connections fills up, and these turn into 502s. Not sure if this is the same as github.com/unbit/uwsgi/issues/ . This is with 2.7.8

  21. Almost 10 years of use later, still a fan of . Still not a fan of the uWSGI docs.

  22. Is the package just broken? Or am I being extra dumb? bundler/setup complains about pg version mismatch between Gemfile and Gemfile.local, and if comment out the line in Gemfile, then I get an error about it being unable to load json?

  23. @larsbrinkhoff github.com/larsbrinkhoff/sixel says "This has been tested on a real VT220", but has it been tested on an emulated ? I can't find an emulator that supports VT220-style sixels, and I'd love to be able hack on programs targeting the VT220 when I'm away from my desk.

  24. on my ... at about 0.6 FPS... gotta try to optimize the screen update code.
