[Gimp-developer] gimp-perl moved into its own CVS module

2003-02-26 Thread Sven Neumann
Hi,

when I saw your mail, I remembered that I haven't yet told you that we
finally moved gimp-perl out of the gimp HEAD branch into its own CVS
module called gimp-perl. Hoepfully someone will find the time to
resurrect its functionality and make it work with GTK+-2.x and
GIMP-1.3.

Well, I must admit that I am not really keen on working on gimp-perl in
gimp-cvs anymore, anyways. The continuous mobbing made the air somewhat
bigheaded up there.

Marc, there has been no mobbing going on (despite your continous
ranting perhaps). There are two reasons for moving gimp-perl into a
separate module:

(1) It doesn't work with GIMP-1.3 and noone seemed to work on getting
this fixed. Since we want to release soon, we were forced to do
something. Having gimp-perl in a seperate module allows to have it
maintained independently of the main GIMP package.

(2) There are a couple of severe problems with the build that have
been outstanding for a very long time and noone did anything about
them. In particular I'm speaking of:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20052
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35694
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79751
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81791
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104726

I expect that some of these problems are more easily fixed in a
separate module since integration of the perl build environment
into the GIMP build environment has proven to be non-trivial.

Just about every of your mails you wrote that has anything to do with
gimp-perl contains some (usually little) amounts of FUD. It might not be
intentional, but it's scary that people like you have the need for this.

If you feel that I am ranting unwarranted then I cannot help you.
Despite me telling you a lot olf times ("rants"), you continue spreading
FUD. Since I regard you as the main gimp developer right now, I take this
as an official sign to really go away.

I mean, I told you... you give a shit and continue... What else can I do
to make you behave less anti-social?

I don't question these reasons at all, btw. Moving gimp-perl, however, is
not the reason why I felt mobbed at all.

I didn't know this (but I don't use the bugtracker, since despite a lot of
tries I never got an account there, so it's rather useless for me).

Well, this is true, but this is also partly because people who go in and
change things fix most of the plug-ins but don't even attempt to do a
one-line variable change inside gimp-perl.

it seems we suffer from the same problem: I've told you about these
problems several times and it seems you forgot about it. So did I
forget that there was a problem calling Script-Fu from anything but
Script-Fu. Perhaps us two just have too many things to care about...

It seems this is wrong and only you forgot about it. I went through all
bug reports you ever told me about and fixed, or at leats tried to fix
them in good faith. I remember having given you feedback on them, too, but
maybe in the last year or so some mails slipped through, I don't know.

> forget that there was a problem calling Script-Fu from anything but
> Script-Fu.

Well, you keep forgetting it, don't you? In any case, arguing about open
bug reports (that are long fixed) isn't going to get us anyhwere.

> Perhaps us two just have too many things to care about...

Perhaps. But I don't go out in the public and keep claiming wrong things
when I _know_ that I _do not_ know.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20052

This bug report is rather outdated and supposedly fixed since MANY years.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35694

Same issue here.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79751

Oops, this is certainly not something you told me about ever.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81791

This also is rather valid - I missed the change from overwriting prefix to
destdir.

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104726

Well, this is another case of broken compilation environment (gcc doesn't
support the native asm syntax and compiler switches).

In any case, the two bugs are really easy to fix - I don't think you ever told me 
about those.

Yes, it's not at all your duty to tell me about these - I am not at all
arguing about that, or wanting you to invest even more time and work.

My problem is that you are investing too much time with misinformation -
something that is relatively easy to avoid, especially since I do tell you
about this regularly (oh sorry, for you it's ranting - no wonder you keep
ignoring it).

Strange.  I had no problem creating an account some time ago:
  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/createaccount.cgi
Submitting your e-mail address using this form is the only thing you
need to be able to add comments to any bug report.  If you also want to
be able to confirm bug reports, to close them or to re-assign them,
then you should send a request to [EMAIL PROTECTED] after you account
has been created.  It may take a couple of days before this request is
honored, but in the meantime you can already use your account to add
your comments in any bug report.

I certainly did; I even added your email to the Cc: which should have

If you ever come around to fix this, will you please notice us about
your change so we can avoid to have the bug-report open for some more
years.

I'm sure you know how to query Bugzilla for the gimp-perl component of
the gimp module.

I vaguely remember that Bugzilla needed JavaScript or Cookies or some
other extra technology to be enabled before you could use it. It's
not set-up very well.

Well, I registered a long time ago (I think under a differrent URL). The
problem is:

> then you should send a request to [EMAIL PROTECTED] after you account

I originally was referred to martin baulig (I think), and tried to contact
him, to no avail (yes, that's years ago). The I was refrred to one other
person (who also didn't respond). I also tried the above address, but
nothing happened, either.

I might try again (and would probably succeed eventually), but I tried
once a year in vain (not last year), and I am somewhat... tired :()

You know, I am really frustrated by this "developer community". I would
have hoped that people like sven (or you, even if it's not your intent)
eventually would stop their (mild) perl-bashing, but it's not at all fun
to try to dveelop within a community that shows you again and again that
they don't care for your project, spread misinfirmation (wether by intent
or not), and generally aren't helpful.

Really, claiming gimp-perl is broken despite soo many people using and
relying on it for years _was_ wearing me out.

Just another FUD example.

You don't need JS (though it may improve user experience in
a few places).

You need cookies to log in, so you generally need cookies to
change anything (what brower do you use? bugzilla works even
in lynx).

You don't need anything to search for bugs, wget is enough
if you know what you are searching for.

I just checked in this one-line change. If it really all that was
required, then it's solved now and could be closed.

Well, nobody said it's totally useless to quarrel sometimes, at least
there is the chance of getting somrthing moving again...

Hmm.. rank 6 will be difficult to reach, though.

It's OT, but you started about reality:

Default lynx behaviour is to ask about each cookie. You can
decide to accept exactly the log-in one (it sends a few
more). You can make sure it's deleted after session. You can
then set your cookie preferencies in the config.

The reality is, you have to prove yourself to make any
changes, and this is a very logical requirement. The
stronger authentization, the better you are monitored. You
can't be monitored less.

If you are so paranoiac you don't accept cookies from
bugzilla.gnome.org, then I can't understand why you bother
to read any mail not signed by some trusted GnuPG key
(namely gimp-dev), not speaking about responding to them. We
are probably all evil hackers monitoring your mailing
behaviour.

Did I say anything about that issue? Maybe I really do bother... I
regularly have problems explaining to people why a gpg key that is not
signed or verified by anybody (self-signature not counted) is still very
useful and still has all the same identification qualities as a "trusted"
(or better: verified by showing your ID card) gpg key.

(A trusted key, btw, is something that actually _weakens_ your
security. If you are paranoic you should never trust _any_ key. And as
a general rule of thumb: if you trust anybody or anything, you are not
really paranoic ;)

Well, that's probably not true, but wether I am paranoic or not, I _do_
respect it when people send me private (off-topic) mails and don't forward
them...

F'up in private again, please ;)

The "bug activity" log for this report (available as a link from the
