[gentoo-user] Hugin panoramic picture and auto control points.
Howdy, I been using Hugin to create panoramic pictures for years. The automatic create control point button never worked. It always spit out a error about a tool missing so I did it manually. Time consuming to say the least. I recently took a few pictures and got tired of spending all night going through pictures manually setting control points. I decided to try and figure out how to fix it since all the programs and commands should be installed. I went to File, Preferences and then clicked on the Control Point Detectors tab in the new window. If you have autopano-sift-C installed, it should be the default. Highlight it and then click Edit. Find Program and then click the Choose button. The correct setting and path is /usr/bin/autopano-sift-c. The default I think was autopano-noop.sh or autopano-noop. When I googled, I couldn't find that command anywhere so no idea why that is the default setting. It took me a while to figure out where that setting was. Google wasn't much help. Once you have that set up, you should be able to add pictures and then tell it to Create Control Points and it work. I don't know how few use this program on this list but since I get a lot of help here, I wanted to post this just in case it will help someone who does use this and has the same problem I had with having to do it manually. Trust me, it is much faster and it does a awesome job so far. What normally would take me all night only took a few minutes with the auto tool working plus it creates a lot more control points. Hope this helps someone. Pictures makes memories. :-D I may post a link to some at some point. Dale :-) :-)

Hi,
I have an ebuild containing
inherit git-r3
and
src_compile() {
./build_all.sh
}
The script build_all.sh contains
[ -d csources ] || git clone --depth 1
_h_t_t_p_s_:_/_/_g_i_t_h_u_b_._c_o_m_/_n_i_m_-_l_a_n_g_/_c_s_o_u_r_c_e_s_._g_i_t
When I try to build I get the strange error
fatal: unable to access
'_h_t_t_p_s_:_/_/_g_i_t_h_u_b_._c_o_m_/_n_i_m_-_l_a_n_g_/_c_s_o_u_r_c_e_s_._g_i_t_/':
Could not resolve host: _g_i_t_h_u_b_._c_o_m
But when I exec
git clone --depth 1
_h_t_t_p_s_:_/_/_g_i_t_h_u_b_._c_o_m_/_n_i_m_-_l_a_n_g_/_c_s_o_u_r_c_e_s_._g_i_t
in an xterm (i.e. without using 'ebuild') it succeeds.
What's going on here?
Many thanks for a hint,

Hi Helmut
I believe this is a consequence of the sandboxing of ebuilds.
When I had the same problem with an ebuild trying to download many
things from
the Maven repository, I added the following lines inside the ebuild:
# To enable Maven access to
_h_t_t_p_s_:_/_/_r_e_p_o_._m_a_v_e_n_._a_p_a_c_h_e_._o_r_g_/_m_a_v_e_n_2
RESTRICT="network-sandbox"
It is described (shortly) in "man 5 ebuild"
This is forbidden in the Portage tree, but is allowed in your own
overlay.
Best regards

Many, many thanks Micka. I'd never thought of that.
Stay healthy,
Helmut
