[gentoo-user] [SOLVED] Python+readline?
On Mon, Jan 30, 2012 at 01:38:53AM -0800, Keith Dart wrote ok, how about the output of: emerge -pv dev-lang/python:2.7 Did you do something with the readline library? I never had it installed!!! I assumed that including the line... dev-lang/python readline ssl xml ...in /etc/portage/package.use would cause sys-libs/readline to be automatically pulled in when building python. WRONG!!! Once I explicitly built sys-libs/readline, then python built against it and up-arrow/left-arrow/right-arrow works just like in bash. I emerged readline with -1, which doesn't enter it into world. And emerge -pv --depclean sys-libs/readline wants to remove readline. I'll file a bug in bugzilla later today. -- Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org

[gentoo-user] xorg-server-1.11.4 runs havoc
Hi, having updated xorg-server from 1.11.3 to 1.11.4 my machine runs havoc. xdm or slim start as usual, but having entered my password I get a blank screen or some colored strips and the only escape is via the famous SysRq sequence. But, disabling xdm, logging in via a console and using startx, Xorg is coming up normally and runs normally. Of course, I've re-emerged everything in x11-drivers. Has anybody made a similar experience and has somebody an explanation for this? Thanks, Helmut.

Helmut Jarausch writes: from time to time I need to boot in 'single' mode. I'd like to use the nano editor in this case. But unfortunately it doesn't run since it cannot resolve the dynamic library libmagic.so.1 Probably because you have a separate /usr partition that is not mounted in single user mode? In this case, copy /usr/lib/libmagic.so.1 to /lib/. How can I build a static version of nano? There is a utility that can convert static binaries from dynamic ones: http://www.magicermine.com/ It's not free, though. But there is a 15-day evaluation version you could use. They state that they support Free Software and OSS, so I guess they would be okay with this. The author also seems to be a nice guy, I exchanged some mails with him years ago because I looked for such a utility. But I did not buy it because the price (300€) was higher than my need for it. Another utility is ELF STATIFIER (http://statifier.sourceforge.net/). It's free, but it seems to have some problems with stack or VDSO randomization. Wonko

Re: [gentoo-user] Multiseat -- LTSP?
Can you rely on Xorg devs to ensure that they are not going to break your multiseat system in the future? Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't know why there would be (much) more likelihood of regression with Xorg multiseat than with anything else, including LTSP and all of its dependencies. Because fewer people are testing it. That's fair but Gentoo makes it easy to roll back if necessary. You can get low-powered Linux systems for $100 or $150 - either a little MIPs ShivaPlug or (I guess) a secondhand atom nettop (Acer Revo). If you save 2 hours per machine by using a standard and common thinclient configuration, then the hardware has paid for itself. You're saying use built-in thin-client firmware (on the SheevaPlug for example) along with something like VNC or NX on the server to save time over an LTSP setup? That would mean giving up some software control. Assuming multiseat works, is there an advantage to this over multiseat? If you have to employ a Linux sys admin to help you fix a complicated problem with Xorg multiseat, then it will run you at least $100 or $150 for those 2 hours. That's how you should be valuing your own time, too. LTSP and its host of dependencies seem much more complicated to me than multiseat. - Grant Nevermind on this. I'm back in now. - Grant

I made the final switch from Windows to Linux on my Workstation (Gentoo) and Notebook (Lubuntu) only a few month ago. So please, don't accuse me of making Windows insults. I feel that Win98SE was the best Windows ever, and could've been even more of a killer if Microsoft hadn't so stupidly tried to ram ActiveX down people's throats. Remove ActiveX, and 99% of drive-by-downloads would've disappeared. WinME was a sad joke, however. I enjoyed MS Dos, then played a bit with MS Win3.11, MS Win95 and MS Win98SE. However, for important stuff, like day-to-day desktop, I switched to Linux in 1997. That was the last time I lost files due to a crash of MS Windows... -- Joost

Swapping 15 floppies is no fun to me. Funny, reinstalling fixed the problems back then and it still is the best way to fix windoze. sighs Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...

Bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=401651 filed. A bit more looking at the ebuild, and more testing, reveals that you must have both the ncurses and readline USE flags set in order to for python to pull in sys-libs/readline. Note that it will build against a previously loaded sys-libs/readline if only the readline flag is set, but it will not pull in the sys-libs/readline package. -- Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org
