16:08:14 <warlord> Hey all.. I'm back...
16:10:32 <warlord> @op
16:10:33 *** gncbot sets mode: +o warlord
16:45:43 <jralls> warlord: How bad is the damage? Is the UPS done for?
16:46:42 <warlord> jralls: Nah, it was okay, just needed a full reset. I pulled out the secondary power pack, turned off the breaker and waited for it to die. Then I put the battery back on, turned back on the power and viola..
16:47:04 <jralls> Yay.
16:48:08 <jralls> The Wiki is still hosed, though. I get the same error I sent you in email on every page I've tried.
16:51:01 <warlord> Yeah, haven't had the chance to try to fix that, yet.
16:52:17 <warlord> okay, a few tables are marked as crashed.. Need to figure out how to fix that.
16:56:24 <warlord> Aha, mysqlcheck -r (instead of -o to optimize)
16:56:30 <warlord> Okay, should be fixed now.
16:56:56 <warlord> Can you try, jralls?
16:57:10 *** MechtiIde has quit IRC
16:57:26 <jralls> That's got it.
16:59:18 <warlord> great
16:59:26 <warlord> now I get this issue on my few FC20 system:
17:00:23 <warlord> Hmm, can't seem to cut-and-paste :(
17:00:29 <warlord> (into xchat)
17:01:06 <warlord> Basically, it can't find swig-runtime.. apparently it thinks I'm not building from git -- i'm building from an lndir
17:08:55 <jralls> It decides that you're building from git by looking for .git in $top_srcdir. Is that getting confused by the symlink?
17:09:43 <warlord> it didnt in fc18
17:11:34 <warlord> Hmm.. Maybe I wasn't using git -- maybe I was still using SVK? I don't see a .git in there.
17:13:37 <warlord> Might as well just clone it now..
17:14:53 <jralls> Is the .svn or .svk still there? I don't think that anyone's simplified that bit to be git-only.
17:15:05 * jralls looking...
17:15:23 <warlord> I dont have SVK installed here, so it just failed to find it.
17:15:30 <warlord> (SVK doesn't work anymore)
17:16:46 <jralls> Nope, I'm wrong. It looks for all of them, but only accepts git.
17:17:36 <warlord> No worries. I'll just use git
17:23:15 <warlord> okay, not I'm confused.. Just did a git checkout and now trying to change branches to 2.4 but there are a bunch of modified files..
17:23:41 <warlord> like a bunch of packaging/win32 files... and doc/README....win32 files
17:23:45 <warlord> Line ending issue?
17:24:25 <warlord> I have core.autocrlf = input
17:28:53 <jralls> Yes. Drives me nuts every time I clone a fresh repo.
17:29:33 <jralls> We can fix that once and for all by getting rid of packaging/win32, which doesn't work any more anyway.
17:29:35 * gjanssens has no core.autocrlf on his F20
17:29:59 <gjanssens> It does the right thing (tm) just like that
17:30:53 <gjanssens> And I haven't dropped packaging/win32 yet because some parts of the gnucash build system still refer to it IIRC
17:31:13 <jralls> Huh. I wonder if there's a conflict between the core.autocrlf code and the .gitattributes code.
17:31:19 <gjanssens> It's on my TODO
17:31:57 <gjanssens> There may be some conflict indeed
17:32:21 <gjanssens> It's been a while since I worked on the eol issues
17:32:36 <gjanssens> I know it depends on git version
17:33:02 <gjanssens> IIRC the rules in .gitattributes require git >= 1.8 to function properly
17:34:00 <warlord> Well, I do know the code I have worked on my fc18 system, but I had SVK installed there.
17:34:26 <gjanssens> But then I *thought* these rules should take precedence over the value of core.autocrlf but perhaps only if set to "auto"
17:34:43 <gjanssens> I can't check that now
17:34:45 <warlord> I can change my core.autocrlf to auto?
17:34:53 <warlord> (would I need to reclone? Or just checkout?)
17:35:11 <gjanssens> you don't need to reclone
17:36:00 <warlord> If I change it to "auto" I get a "bad numeric"
17:36:15 <gjanssens> Yes, my memory fails me...
17:36:24 <gjanssens> Here's the page I usually follow: https://help.github.com/articles/dealing-with-line-endings
17:36:44 <warlord> What's in your ~/.gitconfig file?
17:36:47 <gjanssens> github also suggests to set it to "input"
17:37:03 <warlord> Which is probably why I had it set to 'input'
17:37:29 <gjanssens> There's nothing in there related to line endings on my system
17:37:36 <gjanssens> Just my username and e-mail address
17:38:41 <warlord> Okay, I can just "git checkout 2.4 --force"
17:39:24 <warlord> That seemed to have worked.. Trying it now..
17:40:14 * warlord is still setting up this new laptop, but have to leave for the airport in ~2 hours
17:41:11 <warlord> Aha, I hit the same guile issue that the person on the list did..
17:41:28 <warlord> I've got both 1.8 and 2.0 installed!!
17:41:54 <warlord> Not sure how that happened.. Let me remove compat-guile18-devel
17:42:26 <warlord> Oh, wait.. for 2.4 I need 1.8 and NOT 2.0
17:42:59 <gjanssens> Indeed
17:43:10 <gjanssens> 2.6 can work with either
17:43:18 <warlord> right
17:43:58 <gjanssens> BTW what guile issue was that ?
17:44:09 <warlord> Cannot find guile
17:44:44 <warlord> Now I have another issue -- building from a CLEAN git tree... fails... it's trying to use svn to create the ChangeLog file! Which fails, since we don't have svn support.
17:45:02 <warlord> fixed with a simple touch
17:45:37 <jralls> Why are you building 2.4 anyway?
17:47:06 <warlord> Ummmm... "testing"? ;)
17:48:02 <jralls> OhhhhKayyy....
17:50:03 <gjanssens> Building 2.4 from git was never fully supported :(
17:51:07 *** gjanssens sets mode: +o fell
17:51:25 *** gjanssens sets mode: +o jralls
17:52:00 <warlord> What do you mean by "fully supported"?
17:52:58 <gjanssens> As you figured out yourself: 2.4 assumes svn to be around for some corner cases
17:53:06 <gjanssens> Like changelog generation
17:53:40 <gjanssens> I only fixed the last remaining tidbits after 2.4.15 was released
17:54:01 <warlord> ah, yeah, but the code itself works.. Once you workaround those few tidbits
17:54:17 <gjanssens> Yes, I'd expect so
17:55:00 <warlord> Anyways, it's up and running now. (yay)
17:55:21 <gjanssens> Yay!
17:56:13 <warlord> Now I just need to remember the train URL
17:57:11 <gjanssens> :)
17:57:23 <warlord> b-europe?
17:57:50 <gjanssens> https://www.b-europe.com/Travel/Destinations/Delft
17:57:54 <gjanssens> yep
18:00:31 <warlord> Cool, thanks..
18:01:28 <gjanssens> Will you be on irc on your trip ?
18:01:33 <gjanssens> Or e-mail ?
18:02:15 <warlord> Email: yes. IRC: maybe
18:02:22 <gjanssens> Ok
18:02:44 <gjanssens> Just let me know your eta in Antwerp once you have your tickets
18:02:53 <gjanssens> I have to leave now
18:03:05 <warlord> I'll send you my .NL # when I get it tomorrow.
18:03:13 <warlord> TTYL
18:03:35 <gjanssens> ok bye
