jdev - 2022-06-05

any expert here who is good in video call?

moparisthebest, I had to build a few libs myself, hunt down gir and vapi files, and track down unmentioned dependencies for a gspell and one other lib (found by running `pkg-config --print-errors --exists <lib-name>`

my /boot/home/config/non-packaged is now a unix-like mess.

Seems it is runnign with client side drawing :)

nephele, GTK only does client-side drawing.

Yes... but you can force it not to do that

In GTK 4 it even got moved to the GPU in most cases.

Can you?

Yeah

GTK_CSD=0

On Haiku this seems to then use the normal tab instead

Oh you mean just the outer frame, I was talking about the actual drawing.

Ah. Well Haiku always does server side drawing for everything

though i think qt does this "i submit finished frames" thing too...

which well, makes qt apps sometimes look not so good on haiku :D

anyhow, yes you are right, i ment to side client side decoration

to say*

Here's what it looks like with GTK_CSD=0 prepended to the command line.

Oh, you don’t build with librsvg’s gdk-pixbuf ?

If you did, you would see my avatar. :)

The terminal output is saying it doesn't recognize the image format. It built against gdk-pixbuf (installed from HaikuDepot)

What's the image format?

svg?

gdk-pixbuf uses different loaders (.so files usually) which are pluggable, and librsvg ships one such loader.

nephele, yes, SVG.

librsvg wasn't installed. I'll rebuild dino and retest

You don’t need to rebuild Dino, only to make the loader available.

I assume it will need a restart, though.

You can use `gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders` to list the available loaders.

Possibly yes.

Heh, i have proper dark mode for webkit image documents, but not for svg

thomaslewis, that should be it.

Now the icons should appear as well.

I just put the hicolor icons in ~/.icons. I'll restart and find out.

Dino looks very flat still, can't really tell where the controls start on your screenshot

Woohoo!

...and I now see your avatar.

Tomorrow I'll see about learning how to package things via HaikuPorter (and remembering exactly what I had to do to make it work). Which means I'll also have to package gspell, libsignal-protocol-c, etc.

packaging is endless fun, if you are done, just make a new distro to dance all over again ;)

larma, you talked about a xmpp devroom at froscon earlier, will something happen there? I'd like to know if I include this in my plans for the summer or not. Also anyone else will be there? (CfP closes in a week, too)
