Hey all,

dump link - I have tried to change it, but it seems that Invent only allows me to edit the changelog, not the associated links. I have added a reference to the copy on files.kde.org, and in the future I'll make sure to put the file there (or on download.kde.org, as there may be a few alphas) first before doing anything else.

upstream work - as I said in my Akademy talk yesterday, I don't hold much hope. I chose an outright fork for two reasons: * I've been trying to contact them specially because of the locale bug, to no avail. * The i18n team specifically rejected translating my work unless it was an outright fork under the KDE umbrella.

The latter is a big source of the difficulty of upstreaming this.

I apologise for any pains-in-booty caused by this. If there's any way I can help make it easier for any packagers out there, please ping me back or write to me directly.

Best regards,

Leonardo

.. ok, that's a Walt Disney open source thing, that's packaged in surprisingly
few places already: https://repology.org/project/seexpr/versions . FreeBSD is
one of them.

It is important to package the SeExpr we release from invent.kde.org because
of a host of bug fixes and because this version of SeExpr can be
translated.

Is there any hope of this getting upstream? For systems with seexpr already
packaged, packaging up a one-consumer fork is a pain in the butt (but if it's
needed for Krita, then it'll just have to happen, and thank you for the heads-
up).

An alpha package is available from
https://files.kde.org/krita/build/dependencies/seexpr-3.4.4.0-alpha.1.tar.g
z.

You might want to change the link in the release on invent, which still points
to amyspark's dump-files.
