bug of recent updated "clear" command

after upgrade, "clear" command dot NOT clear the scrollback in a terminal.

compared with previous version, I think it's a upstream change but don't know how to report a bug to them.

before upgrade (l/ncurses-6.2_20200801):
clear was calling 'write(1, "\33[H\33[2J\33[3J", 11)'

after upgrade (l/ncurses-6.2_20201024):
the calling change to 'write(1, "\33[H\33[2J", 7)'

so the scrollback is not cleared.

First of all , thanks for new testing plasma packages.

I have 1 question

My question after some time out, and packages updated/existing patches , why gcc-10 not go under standard line and continues under /testing?

USUARIONUEVO · 11-03-2020, 07:37 PM

if we add vid.stab , we can recompile ffmpeg

Quote:

--enable-libvidstab

Thanks!

Please add Python bindings in the opencv SlackBuild:

Code:

-DPYTHON2_PACKAGES_PATH=$(python2 -c "import site; print(site.getsitepackages()[0])") \
-DPYTHON3_PACKAGES_PATH=$(python3 -c "import site; print(site.getsitepackages()[0])") \

Thanks,

I open the ball for testing/vtown

For 'sddm' user a new version (0.19.0) is available here:

https://github.com/sddm/sddm/releases

i prefer startx, but this new release work here, in vtown source it need to remove or comment the patch:

#cat $CWD/patch/sddm-qt5/sddm_userxsession.diff

regarding the new vtown packages, if you eventually decide to drop digikam please consider keeping its dependency OpenCV in, it's very valuable for a lot of people working with image processing and it's a bit heavy to build on weak machines.
On its own it would be a great addition to the base system in my opinion.

I believe we shouldn't bother anymore about the installation kit size and definitively to keep Digikam - it is best tool for photos.

And it is already hard to buy an 16B usb stick, they sell mainly of 32GB, 64GB and 128GB. Which is plenty of room also for this digikam source code tarball.

If Slackware drops digikam and/or opencv, I will maintain a package in 'ktown' together with all the other relevant stuff that gets dropped.

hunspell 1.7.0 was released (nearly) 2 years ago and is needed to compile calibre 5.4.2. (simple version bump update)

LuckyCyborg · 11-04-2020, 09:29 AM

How now we have the VTown, when we will have also the VXFCE in /testing?

I like very much also Mr. Workman's XFCE-next...

And from what I understand, the XFCE-next goes along well with Plasma5.
