16:01 <SiFuh> ukky: https://pastebin.com/Uzj9way3 <-- 2 days to figure out how to do that. Read the headers, asked around. No help. Eventually found an example on some obscure forum. It was very outdated so doesn't work with the current libdialog, but with some tweaking for the modern version, I eventually got it working.

20:21 <ukky> SiFuh: what is the benefit spending so much effort on design that just takes a few seconds during boot/install stages? Shell script whould do the same with less effort.

20:35 <SiFuh> ukky: Education

21:51 <SiFuh> ukky: Heh, I had a while loop that when I'd select abort, and then cancel abort, if I never moved the keyboard keys at all it would close the session if I tried to proceed as one normally would. After much deduction, it was as simple as replacing return; with continue; Heh.

22:29 <SiFuh> zorz: Is here but ppetrov^ is not

22:29 <SiFuh> https://dpaste.com/ <-- zorz dpaste is moving to python

22:32 <SiFuh> https://i.snipboard.io/m9dNvi.jpg <-- zorz I have progressed from welcome() -> Install and Upgrade selection -> (It splits here). Upgrade goes to -> warning -> /mnt. Install goes to -> /mnt and I am as far as /mnt and /mnt is working already. Next one is package selection.

22:32 <SiFuh> And if I remember correctly upgrade before package selection goes to a notice about some config file

22:33 <zorz> :)

22:33 <zorz> fuck dpaste,,, https://0x0.st

22:34 <zorz> its nice

22:34 <zorz> the setup is nice

22:36 <SiFuh> zorz: yes, a pain in the butt, but I have been enjoying it. Learning some ncurses and libdialog. As ukky said before (paraphrasing) why bother when you can use a shell script. Which is true and fair enough but it isn't ours. And dialog is easy. However, libdialog on the otherhand is not. I found a bug in libdialog that I ended up having to bypass with mathematics.

22:39 <zorz> yes correct.... but why you did not try calamares?

22:40 <SiFuh> calamares?

22:40 <zorz> https://calamares.io/

22:41 <SiFuh> WTF for?

22:41 <SiFuh> Are you whoring again?

22:42 <SiFuh> zorz: And what is happening with MUSL core? Who's working on that?

22:42 <SiFuh> I thought that was farkuhar and your work.

22:42 <zorz> no no no.

22:43 <zorz> myself i just collect the ports, and put them in one place

22:43 <SiFuh> And I wonder if remiliascarlet has been doing anything. I know she was wanting stuff to do but I only gave her suggestions of what is on the plate. But never handed her an actual job.

22:43 <zorz> i gave access... and keys

22:43 <SiFuh> So who the fsck is building MUSL?

22:43 <zorz> dont know

22:43 <SiFuh> HAHAHA

22:44 <zorz> myself.... this is personnal work so far... like instead of personall repo... i put them there.

22:44 <zorz> anyway.... decide which ports have to stay in core

22:44 <SiFuh> I uploaded all the ports I worked on. That way whomever is building MUSL and whomever is building GLIBC can look at them as reference and start working on a slimmed down functioning core.

22:44 <zorz> and let me know as well

22:45 <SiFuh> Well to be honest, I can't decide that. That is a group decision.

22:45 <SiFuh> That is where emmett1, farkuhar, ukky, dlcusa, remiliascarlet, you and I start screaming at eachother.

22:46 <zorz> look sifuh... nobody will stay with a slimmed down core.... i think the core,,, has to do with the installer... so keep core.. on par with installer.

22:46 <zorz> and in core... we need to add wpa_supplicant.

22:46 <SiFuh> zorz: No way. The installer has to have many features the a running system doesn't need

22:46 <zorz> nowdays not everybody have cable connection

22:46 <zorz> but everybody has wifi

22:47 <zorz> yes okay

22:47 <zorz> i aggre.

22:47 <SiFuh> No wpa_supplicant stays in opt but the net scripts need to be rewritten so that they share a single config file so the user doesn't edit the actual rc script.

22:47 <zorz> anyway.... a basic draft are this

22:47 <zorz> [zorz@vbox /home/zorz]$ ls opencrux/core/ |wc -l

22:47 <zorz> 73

22:47 <zorz> 73

22:47 <SiFuh> FUCKING HELL

22:48 <SiFuh> No way

22:48 <zorz> why no way?

22:48 <SiFuh> I still vote to have all compilation tools and prt and pkg utils moved into a separate repo.

22:48 <SiFuh> 99.999999% of the time, that repo will be installed

22:49 <zorz> https://0x0.st/8Y6-.txt

22:49 <zorz> then core goes less

22:49 <zorz> but why separate???

22:49 <zorz> you need all the time gcc

22:49 <SiFuh> But that is beside the point. The point is it isn't functional for a core system. It is for a system that is being built. So it needs its own dedicated repo

22:50 <SiFuh> Only for building.

22:50 <zorz> yes guys... i dont mind, whatever you decide.

22:50 <SiFuh> zorz: By the way, chucked the shits at ncurses, that is why I decided to work with libdialog which uses ncurses.

22:51 <SiFuh> zorz: But here is the fun part. dialog doesn't install the headers.

22:51 <zorz> chucked??

22:51 <zorz> which dialog... crux dialog?

22:51 <SiFuh> https://gitlab.com/SiFuh/opencrux/-/blob/main/extra/dialog-headers/Pkgfile?ref_type=heads

22:51 <SiFuh> Read the package file

22:51 <SiFuh> Notice no 'make install' ?

22:52 <SiFuh> You build it to get dialog.h. If you install the port like normal there are no header files

22:52 <zorz> yes yes... you copy th .h

22:52 <zorz> got it.

22:53 <SiFuh> https://gitlab.com/SiFuh/opencrux/-/raw/main/extra/dialog/.footprint

22:53 <SiFuh> https://gitlab.com/SiFuh/opencrux/-/raw/main/extra/dialog-headers/.footprint

22:53 <SiFuh> I originally had it as one port, but decided to separate so people could see they were two different things

22:55 <zorz> i did this yesterday... jq without onigoruma dependancy. jq has the ability to compile with it built in https://0x0.st/8Y6X.txt

22:55 <SiFuh> jq? Johnny Queer?

22:56 <zorz> bullshit json parser... but usefull to many people

22:56 <SiFuh> zorz: Got anything for remiliascarlet to help out with?

22:58 <SiFuh> I think there is only port building and maintanence as well as selecting which ports belong in what repo.

22:58 <SiFuh> And I am pretty sure she has a dislike for autotools which is a bonus since I don't seem to like them much either.

22:59 <zorz> good

23:00 <zorz> also when, core, opt will be set. we can upload in contrib.... but there everybody with his name so we know what is going on.

23:00 <SiFuh> Also I didn't seem to have any more responses from ukky and farkuhar about my rc and I thought dlcusa tried it as well but he hasn't mentioned anything since

23:00 <zorz> core, opt locked. contrib open

23:01 <zorz> i dont know man... i am a runit boy :P

23:01 <SiFuh> Yes contrib should either be a repo everyone with an account to add to or contrib with sub-repos for each user.

23:01 <zorz> i have runit... in contrib or opt... dont remember where.

23:01 <zorz> and in core as shell i kept dash

23:01 <zorz> but this are all ideas... you need to gather and make a list.

23:02 <SiFuh> I am sure that farkuhar can find a way to add a contrib repo that scans sub directories as repos. Only problem is that the signatures will need to match so they will probably need to be read from the contrib/*/ subfolders and not /etc/ports/

23:03 <SiFuh> runit should go in opt

23:04 <zorz> why to complicate it... one repo... many people upload....

23:04 <SiFuh> Like this contrib/zorz contrib/dlcusa contrib/farkuhar contrib/yenjie contrib/remiliascarlet contrib/ppetrov^

23:04 <zorz> good thing.... not duplicate ports.

23:04 <zorz> no no no

23:05 <zorz> like is in crux.... and Mainainer : sifuh

23:05 <SiFuh> Yes, and if duplicates exist then the last one to upload should notify why.

23:05 <SiFuh> That way we don't have 5 versions of arandr for example. We take the best of the best and use that. No mess like CRUX repos

23:07 <zorz> that is why i say one repo... one lets say aria2 and in the build file maintainer blabl

23:07 <zorz> that is why i say one repo... one lets say aria2 and in the build file maintainer blabl a

23:07 <SiFuh> However, if you think lavaball's repo is crap you can have a feature to completely disable it ;-)

23:07 <zorz> lavaball does not use crux

23:08 <SiFuh> In Soviet Russia CRUX doesn't use lavaball

23:08 <zorz> hahahaha

23:08 <SiFuh> He uses Gentoo and OpenBSD

23:08 <zorz> this weekend i need to make mesa

23:08 <zorz> fuck Gentooo.... Gentoo uses you

23:08 <zorz> seriously uses you

23:08 <zorz> :P

23:08 <SiFuh> Today is beer brewing. And work on some more of this setup program I guess.

23:09 <SiFuh> https://www.theregister.com/2024/04/16/gentoo_linux_ai_ban/ <-- Old but I 100% agree

23:10 <zorz> beermans, building of mesa is okay good efort but is bloated. i will do a preinstall script, that will probe for gpu... and according to gpu, install dependancies and make the mesa config.

23:10 <zorz> simple :P

23:10 <SiFuh> Maybe he uses sAI to do it?

23:11 <zorz> mine amdgpu when i compile mesa... is 1600 cxx how you call it compile lines.

23:11 <zorz> when i go with crux... i get amdgpu,,, but the compilation is 3000 lines... i get shit in mesa that i dont need.

23:12 <zorz> because... he is building mesa according to the installed programs.

23:12 <zorz> not according to the gpu

23:12 <SiFuh> zorz: I like the OpenBSD way emacs-gtk2 emacs-gtk3 emacs-no_x11

23:12 <zorz> yes

23:12 <zorz> i agree, debian the same... with nox etc

23:13 <SiFuh> But when you depinst (Stealing from CRUX) emacs. It asks you which version. However in the /etc/mk.conf you can select NO=X11 or something like that.

23:13 <SiFuh> zorz: I plan to rewrite CKUT too in C.

23:14 <zorz> SiFuh: before you start rewritting in c.... take some time... and think of the core collection.

23:14 <SiFuh> I wrote that 5 years ago. Wow, it needs an overhaul. https://gitlab.com/SiFuh/yenjie/-/raw/master/ckut/ckut-2.6.bash

23:17 <zorz> ooooooooo python. python should be in opt only python and pip. all the rest we should create python dir.

23:17 <zorz> as we have xorg, python.

23:18 <SiFuh> Actually python can be moved to a compilation repo. In core I only used it for builing ports

23:18 <SiFuh> It's as arch linux says "makedepends"

23:18 <SiFuh> Which I think is a great feature

23:19 <zorz> void the same

23:19 <zorz> make depends, run depends.

23:19 <SiFuh> I need something like redbull

23:19 <zorz> I need sleep

23:19 <zorz> 01:18,,, i am up from 07:20

23:20 <zorz> good thing mplayer, compiles great in musl...
