Re: How to report bugs with the new git repo?

2018-02-16 Thread Pavlo Solntsev
Thank you All for the discussion. It looks like official part, e.g. bug
registration, should be done as usually, while technical work may be done
using git lab.

How to report bugs with the new git repo?

2018-02-15 Thread Pavlo Solntsev
Hello,

I am very excited to see that Debian has moved to GitLab (
https://salsa.debian.org). With this change, I am wondering how bug report
process should look like? Now, I want to submit patches to packages, e.g.
libgdamm. What would be the best process: submit a patch via push request
in the Debian repo, or push patches to upstream?

Thanks,

Re: libgda with ui support.

2017-08-15 Thread Pavlo Solntsev
Dear Andreas.

Thank you for the clarification. I personally didn't file that bug but I
was planning to. Since it was exactly what I was planning to describe I
just referenced it. Last night I was trying to rebuild libgda from stable
with "--with-ui" argument. I got an error when start compiling test
modules. I am not sure how to skip this step but it looks like it is a part
of ui compilation. The code contains a lot of obsolete code that should be
fixed in upstream (needs to be checked). I will continue investigation but
it looks like we had an issue with compilation ui module and that is why it
was switched off. Make sense.
All the best,

libgda with ui support.

2017-08-14 Thread Pavlo Solntsev
Hello,
I am not sure where I should direct my question. There is a bug #862251 for
libgda-5.0 package. UI modules are not compiled and not available.
Basically, I have to manually compile those. The bug is sitting for 90 days
without any comment. I understand, that people may be busy with other
duties, but can someone clarify why we don't have ui module available as a
separate package or part of *-dev. Is there any reason for that?

Thanks.

Re: I need your advice

Dear Paul. 
Thank you for quick response.

will not work so easily. I need to rebuild libgda and glib. It is
doable but, as you understands, I would prefer leave this solution as
my last chance.

This is definitely good idea. Will do.

I am not sure what is called "GNOME runtime".

I already done this. I just need to go through the standard process. It
 still doesn't solve problem with upstream development. 
I put all my packages here https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8fjSLiFRX

Definitely, all three suggestions serve different needs. Many thanks
for your comments.

I need your advice

2017-04-26 Thread Pavlo Solntsev
Dear friends.

I need your advice about development under Debian. I use testing repo.
My desktop environment is Gnome and I contribute to some Gnome's
projects. For me the big challenge is to work with upstream libraries.
Basically, questions lays in the plane how to maintain upstream library
that I can use in my own project. For now, I can't build some libraries
because of dependency that are not available in my debian repo. I know
jhbuild can be used but some libraries, e.g. libgdamm are not available
as modules. I checked Flatpak but can't figure out how to use my own
library for development. I just wanted to ask for advice if someone can
share an experience in this matter that would be very helpful.

Thanks.

Recently bought the newest Dell inspiron. Everything works out of the box.
Didn't play much with HDMI. Know fo sure that video works. With recent
kernel update (Debian testing) even screen rotation works. I am personally
very happy.
