Bug#860763: policy.xml contrasts with documentation

2021-07-09 Thread Douglas Perkins
As a desktop user who has used ImageMagick for years, right now it's 
quite surprising because I can't format shift.  Converting a JPG to a 
PDF, for example, is (or was) an ordinary well-documented way of using 
the software.  Is it reasonable to expect all desktop users to edit a 
root configuration file to get the behavior they always had, behavior 
that is consistent with the program's official documentation?


Alternatively, if the current restrictive policy.xml is considered 
reasonable or necessary, it should be better documented. Because the 
policy.xml restrictions make everyday format shifting impossible, it is 
important to clearly indicate in the error message that (a) the package 
no longer works like it always did, and (b) how the desktop user can get 
things working again.




Bug#856110: anki: Anki cannot start

Package: anki

Dear Maintainer,

I just upgraded to Anki 2.1.0 with a dist-upgrade.  When I try to open the 
packaged version, I get the following error.

I would like for Anki to start normally.

I can and have downloaded Anki 2.1.0a10 from source, and when I run that, it 
functions normally.  This is my workaround.

I agree with others: the severity is more than minor.  I would say it's 
important, and at the least normal.


With AdBlock unavailable, many websites that were fine before become 
borderline unusable.  To me and many others, that's a major usability 
problem.

Bug#834303: calibre: Unhandled exception when editing books

2016-08-14 Thread Douglas Perkins
Package: calibre
Version: 2.60.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After an upgrade a few days ago, I can no longer edit books using Calibre.

I open Calibre, open the editing window, and so far so good. Now I double click 
on an xhtml file, and instead of the file opening for editing, I get the 
following error.

Bug#823134: calibre: Cannot edit books

2016-05-01 Thread Douglas Perkins
Package: calibre
Version: 2.55.0+dfsg-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After a update and upgrade in late April 2016, editing in Calibre stopped 
working.

If I open Calibre, right-click and edit an ePub book stored there, and then try 
to open an HTML file in the book, I get a pop-up error message.

---

AttributeError: type object 'QUrl' has no attribute 'None'

---

After I click OK for the error message popup, Calibre closes.

I have not done extensive testing, but it seems this mostly or only happens 
with HTML files. Within Calibre, I have successfully opened and edited txt and 
css files, and likewise jpgs are viewable. All HTML files that I've tried to 
edit lead to this crash.

If it's a book I've edited in the past, where the HTML tab would ordinarily 
open up in the editor because the editor remembers files viewed in the past, 
Calibre crashes when I try to open the editor itself, before I click on any 
specific files. 

I would like to be able to edit books.

Hi,

As it turns out, there's an unofficial Anki server out there:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/AnkiServer/2.0.5


That server is quite old and not actively maintained.  Current versions 
of the desktop client will not sync with it, in my experience.  (Other 
clients definitely won't sync with it without modification.)  The author 
says that with a little work one ought to be able to update the server 
accordingly, though he doesn't have time ATM.


Andreas, I'd be happy to package it for Debian, but since I'm not yet 
a DD, I'd

need you to sponsor the upload. Let me know if you'd be interested in
sponsoring, or if you'd rather make the package yourself.

Yours thankfully,

Riley Baird

Bug#768398: anki: Old version can't sync with AnkiWeb

2014-11-07 Thread Douglas Perkins

Yes.  I greatly appreciate your efforts in this burdensome situation.

I tried downloading and installing 2.0.31 from upstream source, and 
also the upstream dpkg, but ran into dependency issues.  I couldn't 
figure them out, but that's not surprising given my very limited Python 
knowledge.


In the long run, I think the best fix is to establish alternate Anki 
server choices.  If and when those can be stabilized, there will be less 
need to rush to adopt new client versions.  That way, if the Ankiweb 
administrator is too aggressive in pushing upgrades, that service will 
lose traction as people shift to user-friendly servers, or just run 
their own.  That is outside of the scope of this conversation, though.

Bug#768398: anki: Old version can't sync with AnkiWeb

2014-11-06 Thread Douglas Perkins
Package: anki
Version: 2.0.30+dfsg-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I regularly use Anki and sync with AnkiWeb.  Everything worked fine until this 
morning.

Now when I try to sync, I get a popup error message, "Syncing failed:
Please upgrade to the latest version of Anki."  I've tried several times with 
the same outcome.

In the past, this has happened when the AnkiWeb server administrator decided to 
force clients to use the most recent version.  The newest version on 
http://ankisrs.net/#linux is 2.0.31.  Currently, Sid has version 2.0.30.

Is it possible to move to 2.0.31?  My apologies for posting here.  The problem 
is not precisely with the client, but rather with the AnkiWeb server 
administration requiring lightning-fast client upgrades.

Bug#750772: An update

2014-06-17 Thread Douglas Perkins
I closed the bug report on GitHub because I thought everything was 
working.  But it turns out that that's not accurate.


Until the day before yesterday, OwnCloud contacts was totally broken for 
me.  As of yesterday, I now have OwnCloud contacts working for a limited 
time after restarting Apache.  But after this variable amount of time, I 
get the same errors as before.


This working-for-a-limited-time behavior has been reported by others.  
Speculation is that sqlite had a bug, and that got fixed, but there's a 
second bug not specific to mysql or sqlite that affects both.


One workaround, if your server is mostly idle, is to set a cronjob that 
restarts apache every 30 minutes or so.  It's a kluge, but hey.

Bug#667457: gwaei: Program freezes without properly starting

Package: gwaei
Version: 3.2.0b1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

As of a sid upgrade around 2012-03-31, gwaei now won't start.  Prior to that 
point, it was working properly.

Package: gwaei   
State: installed
Version: 3.2.0b1-1
Section: gnome
Architecture: amd64

Here is a screenshot of it freezing.  https://imgur.com/dcOkY  It will stay 
like this until I force close it, and this happens every time.  If I open the 
program using the command line, no error message (or any other message) is 
displayed.

I haven't changed any gwaei settings recently, but on spec, I tried removing my 
home directory gwaei files, and the behavior persists.  I'm using xfce4 and 
haven't tried Gnome or KDE.

Ideally, gwaei should open without freezing when I try to open it.  I would 
like to provide more information on what's going wrong, but no error messages 
show up in the console or in /var/log/messages.  Let me know what other 
information would be useful.
