Chinese fonts on chrome

Hello: I'm trying to get chrome or firefox display Chinese characters but I'm failing. I have installed zh-wqy-bitmapfont and zh-fonts-kc and then I run fc-cache but they do not show up. In the font menu of chrome I cannot find any option for those fonts to be used. Firefox is fine though. I

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

I think the issue of triage deserves a more clear explanation of just how huge a task this really is. A team with members who are well familiar with each architecture and having access to the actual models/devices showing the problem. Even a "fix" might break other models within the same

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

> No such team exists. the tool used is irrelevant Well, we have that tool today: it is a mailing list. Also, we have a team which triages bugs on there: the developers. Is it perfect? No. Do things slip through the cracks? Sure. Because not enough people triage. Not enough developers.

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

Christoph, your conversation is distracting. Nobody gives a damn about the tool. Everyone gives a damn about the triage. I hate to break it to you, but you are not the first person to broach this discusson. The only way this would work is with a dedicated team of people to triage each area and

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

My question was serious. I am not the enemy but I think this thing will only work if the people who use it accept / like to use it and so on. > bug tracking software is 1% of the solution. At least 80% of the work is triage, and noone on this thread is serious about doing that.

Using stmp auth for local account with PHP scripts

Hi there, There are simple ways of relaying local mails(connection on lo0 on port 25) to a other mailserver. This is oky for logs and stuff but what's about mails created by a php on the local webserver? His do I get smtpd to still do a auth with username and pwd on lo0? Is it possible or do

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

Thanks for your fast answer. I thought before, that the manual triage was the point. Would the devs accept / use a bug tracker ? I ask because I find start something without the devs is burning time (see the .ru domain, the UI posts ... ). If someone of the developers is interested a off list

texmacs on 6.2

Hello, I have probably a trivial (user) question. I've used texmacs on 6.1, amd64. Now I wanted to install it on 6.2, i386, but I can neither find a package nor i386 is mentioned among Archs in ports (the same for amd64, btw.). What can I do? Why isn't i386 and amd64 available? Thanks Ruda

Re: bug tracking system for OpenBSD

Just curious, could it be, that the problem is only a problem of the OPs from the threads (bug tracker, github mirror and so on) and, not a problem from the OpenBSD developers ? If I read the last section from https://www.openbsd.org/report.html it looks like that for me. I did not search the
