Committer request to upgrade MythTV to remove dependency on Python 2.7

[Alan Hicks via freebsd-ports]

Could a committer look into commiting the MythTV family of ports in pr 
249484


It would be great to get a working digital video recorder in ports and 
remove a dependency on Python 2.7.

+---+---
Open|249484    
|multimedia/mythtv: Update to 31.0  


Many Thanks,

Alan

ports/UPDATING does not seem to include an entry noting

He means, "I could just write 'No, 455205 is the first one with FLAVORS
support in it, if you don't count the brief interlude from 450663 until
450939 when introducing it exposed the lack of communication between
ports collection and ports tools maintainers for the first time', but
since that would be entirely too helpful, instead I'll just post a link
to the SVN web interface which boasts all the charm and usability of the
late 1990s and let you figure it out for yourself."



Given that I asked about a specific revision number, it stands
to reason that I had already spent too much time wandering around
svnweb.freebsd.org.  An entry needs to be added to ports/UPDATING
to state which revision turns on flavors and by extension neuters
all port management tools except poudriere.  Four months from now
when users update a system finding that information by crawling
through svnweb.freebsd.org will be a challenge.



Your friend is subversion log search
svn log --search FLAVORS svn://svn.FreeBSD.org

Generic FLAVORS work.

- Enable FLAVORS.
- Make make describe flavors aware.
- Add a qa check for unique package names amongst flavors.
- Make MOVEDlint understand flavors.
- Add a bit of sanity check to make sure FLAVORS stay lowercase.
- Various fixes.

Re: LibreOffice FreeBSD landscape printing

Hello

I am running into a printing bug with libreoffice :
http://www.freshports.org/editors/libreoffice

When I try to print, the options to select landscape is greyed out. It's
locked in at portrait. Has anyone else experienced this issue?


I can confirm the behaviour, though not sure it's a bug. I can change 
aspects of a document such as printing a brochure, the printing does the 
right thing and changes portrait to landscape with two pages side by 
side. Outcome appears as expected.


Perhaps your use case is not covered/outside scope?

Hi!


Hmm, I found this:

pkg clean -a
cleans the cache and

pkg install -R -f firefox

should force a reinstallation of the package and all dependencies.

Well, indeed, as you posted already, it does not 8-(



I didn't try pkg clean -a before pkg install -R -f firefox before but 
just tried it now and indeed - doesn't work.




Perhaps what you seek is:

pkg info -d firefox | xargs -L 1 pkg install -f

Also try editing your local config file

.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

For example mine is currently:

[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme = false
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = Default
gtk-icon-theme-name = Adwaita dark
gtk-font-name = DejaVu Sans 10

See https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkSettings.html

You'll need to ensure any icons and fonts are installed

gtk3-widget-factory, installed with gtk3, is a great 
testing/visualisation tool

Alan
