Hi all, For info to Norton Security Users, Using QGIS 2.18.1 on Windows 7 sp1 64 bits. Norton deleted twice, without warning, qgis-bin.exe + many .py files on my computer + modified many registry entries. Message was "WS.Reputation.1", linked to the so-called SONAR function of Norton Securi

Thank you Paul, We have received similar reports in the past already. I think what you have done is the best approach: notify the antivirus producer about false alerts as a user and provide them with the required information (qgis-bin.exe etc.) to investigate the problem and update the heuristics

Thanks Paul, Yes indeed it looks like every single version will need to be whitelisted. It would be interesting for us to upload every release, but it looks like it's a manual process that someone will need to take care of (at least it doesn't look like it's a scriptable API): https://submit.sym

Thanks for your response and also to Paolo's response. I'm ready to help as far as I can with my limited skills. The "vendor's form" (https://submit.symantec.com/whitelist/isv/) specifies that a corporate email adress is mandatory to make a proactive whitelisting: --e

[Qgis-user] Pyspatialite installation issues on Fedora 25

2016-12-19 Thread William G. Guthe
Hi, I've installed QGIS 2.14.3-Essen on an i386 Toughbook running Fedora 25. The Processing plugin is missing the pyspatialite module, so I followed directions at http://blog.oddbit.com/2015/11/17/installing-pyspatialite-on-fedora/ to install the dependencies and pyspatialite itself. All's go

Hi William, I had the same problem on Fedora 25 and solved it with comment 5 at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1340535. Create a pyspatialite.py file in ~/.qgis2/python with the following contents: from sqlite3 import * def connect(*args, **kwargs): import sqlite3 db = sqlite

[Qgis-user] Fwd: different buffer distance for each side

2016-12-19 Thread Azzurra Lentini
Thanks Nyall. I dont know why but GDAL SINGLE SIDED BUFFER it doesnt work really well. The result of this buffer is a line and not a polygone (the line is the same of the input file!!) I just put my input file and 150 m for the distance buffer for the left side. Thanks, ​A.L.​ 2016-12-19 20:19
