[Geany-Devel] Geany 2.0 has bad or missing signing keys
Hi, I always like to be able to download the pubkeys and signatures so I can verify the downloads before doing the installation. gpg2 gives me these diagnostics: geany-2.0.tar.bz2.sig Good signature from "Colomban Wendling " [expired] geany-2.0.tar.gz.sig Good signature from "Colomban Wendling " [expired] geany-2.0_setup.exe.sig Good signature from "Enrico Tröger " [unknown] and for geany-plugins-2.0.*.sig gpg: Signature made Oct 19, 2023 xx:xx:xx MDT gpg:using EDDSA key 23C0ACC6C2A22D6EB8A98563EC3A8C6CF6546888 gpg: requesting key EC3A8C6CF6546888 from hkp://pgp.surf.nl gpg: Can't check signature: No public key In summary, two expired keys were used to sign the geany 2.0 assets, and the public key required to verify the geany-plugins 2.0 assets does not seem to be available on the geany.org site. There are also no signatures for the .zip and .tar.gz files containing the source code for both geany and geany-plugins. With previous releases, I have also used the MD5SUM, and SHA*SUM files for additional verification.

So looking at https://nightly.geany.org/win32/build_win32_geany.log, the problem is clear: the build is using Python 2.7. Python2 will read the file as ASCII by default, while Python3 will try to detect the encoding and fall back to UTF-8. Plus Python2 is now unsupported. When I tried to recreate the problem on msys and cygwin for 1.31.1, 1.36, and 1.37.1 , I could not reproduce it because I have Python3 installed as the only Python on both systems. I spent more time than I should have on this, and I think you may have found a solution yourself.

The win32 theme works, but does not look as nice as the Windows10 theme. How do you install a GTK3 theme on Windows? The linked page only describes the install for *nix. Google yields a confusing number of results that are full of alternatives for the developer, but without much guidance for the post installation user.

I downloaded and installed both of these. So far they have worked flawlessly, although I have not done much actual work, instead, just re-exploring the interface and preferences. I have a few observations, questions and suggestions. - the slow project loading of 1.37.1 is corrected. - the visual style of scrollbars on the edit window is different. The scrollbars are now about half the width as formerly. The previous scrollbars were about twice as wide, making it much easier to grab the thumb. The Win10 style is a narrow scrollbar that gets wider when you hover over them. Is it possible to have a choice, or at least an OS style scrollbar? - The help button does not work on any preference page. It reports, e.g.: 21:16:09: Failed to open URI "C:/Program Files/Geany/share/doc/geany/html/index.html#various-preferences": The system cannot find the file specified. And in the Debug Messages: 21:16:14: Geany WARNING: ShellExecute failed opening "C:/Program Files/Geany/share/doc/geany/html/index.html#various-preferences" (code 2): The system cannot find the file specified. The menu item "Help->help" and pressing "F1" correctly open the help file in Firefox Nightly at "file:///C:/Program%20Files/Geany/share/doc/geany/html/index.html" - The help file does not declare its character encoding so the 3rd non-blank line contains "Authors: Enrico Tröger". - The menu item "Tools->Load Tags File..." uses a non-windows style file search dialog. - The menu item "Help->Debug Messages" opens a very small window. Opening the window with a size of relative to the main geany window, or perhaps safer, relative to the screen size would be nice. Some messages do not have the timestamp prefix. Many debug messages have the same time stamp, so adding the milliseconds value would be helpful. - The keybinding for entering unicode characters is documented, but the key combo Ctrl-Shift-u does not seem to work at all in 1.38beta1. The ability to enter unicode characters is almost a requirement for me. - Geany on Win10 can be crashed every time by opening the open file dialog, shift-right-click on a filename and selecting "Copy as path". Shortly after canceling the open file dialog, geany will crash. There are two entries in the Event Viewer -> Windows Logs -> Application. The following info from the Error entry (incomplete): Faulting application name: geany.exe, version: 1.38.0.0, time stamp: 0x Faulting module name: libcairo-2.dll, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x Exception code: 0xc005 Fault offset: 0x00050f63 Faulting application name: geany.exe, version: 1.38.0.0, time stamp: 0x Faulting module name: libcairo-2.dll, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x Exception code: 0xc005 Fault offset: 0x00050f63 indicates the fault occured in libcairo-2.dll. The circumstances suggest that the clipboard buffer for the copied file path is incorrectly allocated or incorrectly identified as shared public or some such thing, so that cairo attempts to free a memory block owned by the clipboard. Does geany provide a callback to libcairo which allocates memory? If this is a libcairo error, it should be occurring for every GTK3 app on windows with a file opener dialog. In 2018,I opened the issue "Win10 crash after "Copy as Path" from open file dialog #1942" for geany 1.33 https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/1942 which seems to be the same problem. I plan to continue to use this version of geany as my main editor/IDE.

[Geany-Devel] Building geany using msys2 on Windows 10
The slow loading of projects in geany 1.37.1 and the missing plugins installer for 1.37.1 has prevented me from upgrading, and a bug that may be related to file dialogs, has prompted me to try building geany from source. I have been following the instructions on the wiki page "Build Geany on Windows (using MSYS2)" at https://wiki.geany.org/howtos/win32/msys2 to set up and build on a Windows 10 Pro laptop with Msys2 and Mingw64 installed. I have used msys2/mingw64 for several years and cygwin for many years, as well as several *nix systems in the past. In the "GTK+3 compilation" section, it appears that the required msys2 package list has evolved since the wiki page was last updated about 6 years ago. When I try to run "autoconfig.sh" to build ./configure, the following lines in "configure.ac": # GTK/GLib/GIO checks gtk_modules="gtk+-3.0 >= 3.0 glib-2.0 >= 2.32" gtk_modules_private="gio-2.0 >= 2.32 gmodule-no-export-2.0" PKG_CHECK_MODULES([GTK], [$gtk_modules $gtk_modules_private]) appear to cause a failure about missing packages. I could not find a "gmodule-no-export" package. Can someone suggest how to correct this snippet of code in the wiki page to work now, or how to make a modified version of "cross-build-mingw.sh" which will work for buildinig on mingw on a Windows machine.
