Bug#725818: please fix

2013-11-26 Thread Flavio Stanchina
I'd like to add a few notes to this bug. I installed just the Sqlite
backend as I don't want MySQL on this machine. This worked fine on squeeze
and wheezy, but I recently upgraded to jessie and every time I logged into
a KDE session I would get a dialog box saying that Akonadi was upgrading
resources which would stay there for a minute or so without progress. Upon
further investigation I discovered that the Akonadi server wouldn't start
because it was looking for MySQL:

$ akonadictl start
[...]
mysqld not found. Please verify your installation
[correct, it's not installed on this machine]
[more error messages and a stack trace]
ProcessControl: Application 'akonadiserver' returned with exit code 255
(Unknown error)
[the above part repeats three more times]
akonadiserver crashed too often and will not be restarted!

Maximiliano Curia wrote:
 akonadi-backend-mysql is the default backend, if you want to setup a
 postgresql or sqlite backend you need to manually change akonadi
 configuration to use that connection.

Manually? Are you joking? This is KDE, not bash with more colors.

 This is documented in:
 /usr/share/doc/akonadi-backend-sqlite/README.Debian.gz

...which says, among other things:
Just install the backend package which is the most appropriate for your
setup [...]

That's what I did. Again, if the MySQL backend is required for the package
to work, why isn't there a dependency? That's what the original bug report
was asking. Either Akonadi *needs* the MySQL backend, therefore a
dependency is required, or the fact that Akonadi won't start without the
MySQL backend is a bug that needs fixing. Just select the first available
backend and be done with it. By the way, if you just write:

  [%General]
  Driver=foo

...into ~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc, then the control panel will
start and let you set the configuration. It's funny that an invalid
configuration works better than a valid configuration without the backend.

Truth be told, the real question for me is that I don't want Akonadi on my
system, but it is a dependency of several core KDE packages (I didn't track
which ones exactly) so it can't be removed. I solved the problem by
dpkg-redirect'ing /usr/bin/akonadi* and /usr/lib/libakonadi
out of the way, so package dependencies are satisfied. The KDE session
starts without errors and every piece of KDE that I'm actually interested
in runs fine, so I guess Akonadi is not really required. I have no problem
if you won't fix the Akonadi package dependencies as I've now made sure it
won't affect me, but I'd really like if someone fixes the other KDE
packages' dependencies so I can remove Akonadi altogether.

Bug#602347: kspread: automatically selects unrelated file name on save as

2010-11-03 Thread Flavio Stanchina

Package: kspread
Version: 1:2.2.1-3
Severity: normal

I tried to save a .ods file as .csv; as soon as I selected the .csv file
type, kspread automatically changed the file name to an unrelated .csv
file I had in the same directory, while I was expecting it to change the
extension on the file name that the document was already using (every
other program I ever used works this way).

Re: can't play any video in dragon player

 I switched back to xine and I guess that one just has to check what fits
 best to one's personal needs.

In fact using the xine backend everything works again.

I was asking because with gstreamer i cannot even play ogg videos, which is a 
free format and so should be well supported.
It just seemed strange that the preferred (the one automatically installed) 
backend cannot handle it and i immediately thought about a problem...

can't play any video in dragon player

2009-02-03 Thread Flavio
Hi all,
since i upgraded to kde4.2 (from experimental) i cannot play any video with 
dragon player.

I think i installed all the required plugins (my phonon backend is gstreamer):

$ aptitude search ~igstreamer
i A gstreamer0.10-alsa   - GStreamer plugin for ALSA
i A gstreamer0.10-plugins-base   - GStreamer plugins from the base set
i   gstreamer0.10-plugins-good   - GStreamer plugins from the good set
iB  gstreamer0.10-plugins-really-bad - GStreamer plugins from the bad set
i   gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly   - GStreamer plugins from the ugly set
i A gstreamer0.10-x  - GStreamer plugins for X11 and Pango
i A libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0  - GStreamer libraries from the base set
i A libgstreamer0.10-0   - Core GStreamer libraries and elements
i A phonon-backend-gstreamer - Phonon GStreamer 0.10.x backend
$

before upgrade i was using xine backend.

Am i missing something? Should i return to xine backend?

Using mplayer everything works.

Below i pasted dragon player output, if you need more info, please ask.

Thanks all

Bug#504228: ark: does not open lha files from the command line

2008-11-01 Thread Flavio Stanchina
Package: ark
Version: 4:3.5.10-2.1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When you try to open a lha file from the command line (ark file.lha),
you get this error:

  The utility is not in your PATH.
  Please install it or contact your system administrator.

That's because the lha module doesn't set the unarchiver. The attached
patch fixes it. I copied the logic from other single-program formats,
such as ar and zoo.

OK, this is the same as http://bugs.debian.org/384325 and you might want to
try the workaround explained in the next-to-last mail,
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=384325;msg=47

This is definitely a Qt problem, not fireglcontrol's. I'm going to reassign
this bug to Qt and merge it with #384325 unless someone can show me that
something in fireglcontrol is helping this bug to come out.

AW: KDE 3.2-beta2

2002-09-29 Thread Flavio Tischhauser
Hi!

 I guess I need a mirror that either is doing updates automatically
somehow
 (which can be hard if I have a changing ip address), or to where I can
 upload
 the files when they change.
 

If your dynamic IP ist the problem, why don't you just use one of the
free dns services? I'm using dyndns.org for years now, and it works
wonderful. (they have tons of different clients/scripts to automatically
update your ip).

Once you have a dns with your current ip, it shouldn't be a big problem
to set up an automatical mirror.
