 <<<Back 1 day (to 2011/08/04)2011/08/05 
mvrhel2 Robin_Watts: I am sorry to have abandoned you. The kids had their final swim lesson and I had to go and see what all they learned01:36.22 
  Robin_Watts: It is the RAW_DUMP stuff that I am looking at. Be sure to run that file with a small resolution -r30. At 72 it does clist rendering01:37.15 
  which will be confusing01:37.23 
tkamppeter chrisl, hi08:19.04 
chrisl tkamppeter: good morning08:36.08 
tkamppeter chrisl, can you tell me as soon as you have the official and final 9.04 tarball up, so that I can update the GS package then?08:41.08 
chrisl tkamppeter: yep, sure. It will be this afternoon, I've got docs to update and some basic testing to do first.08:41.45 
tkamppeter chrisl, OK.08:42.11 
Robin_Watts tor8: Well, I think I found a bug in gs blending handling :(11:38.09 
tor8 Robin_Watts: fantastic! :)11:38.25 
sebras tor8: ... if it is fixable...11:38.38 
chrisl Robin_Watts: am I right in thinking we don't currently have 64 bit Windows GhostPDL builds?12:22.42 
Robin_Watts You are, I believe.12:23.03 
  Or at least, I've never seen such things.12:23.19 
chrisl Okay, something else for my to-do list then..... Thanks.12:23.27 
Robin_Watts but I'm slightly out of the 64bit loop, as I'm languishing in 32bit windows world.12:23.46 
chrisl I don't see any 64 bit targets in there, I just thought I'd ask - so, no point in my trying to test it.12:25.00 
  tkamppeter: The GS 9.04 release archive is here: http://www.ghostscript.com/~chrisl/ghostscript-9.04.tar.gz13:09.35 
  tkamppeter: sorry about the slight delay - minor build panic a couple of hours ago (GhostPDL not Ghostscript).13:10.03 
Robin_Watts I have it so that mupdf and gs both go into the blending step, with the same inputs. but they come out with different results.14:19.36 
  So hopefully that's "just" a question of fixing the blend routines.14:19.52 
henrys ugh I forgot the ghostpdl NEWS14:33.04 
chrisl henrys: if you can do it now, I'll get it into the archives - I wouldn't have thought there was a lot to say?14:35.36 
henrys no nothings happened a bug fix or two.14:36.02 
chrisl henrys: well, plenty of stuff has happened which affects GhostPDL, but it's mostly covered already in the GS docs.14:37.18 
  henrys: also, don't forget that now we don't have an easy way to differentiate the two, the Ghostscript changelog covers GhostPDL as well.14:38.47 
henrys I'll put a note at the top of ghostpdl/NEWS that explains that.14:42.54 
mvrhel2 sigh. I don't think this flight is going to ever get going.....14:47.13 
  henrys: I am gong to try to get my P1 regression bugs cleared over the next few days14:47.30 
  most of them look like they should be relatively straight forward14:47.47 
henrys okay, feel free to downgrade them if you think it is appropriate.14:48.12 
mvrhel2 ok. 14:48.24 
Robin_Watts mvrhel2: Hey.14:53.07 
  Does gs not support certain combinations of knockout/isolated group ?14:54.21 
  Damn. Scared him off again.14:56.29 
henrys Robin_Watts:you have that effect on people, I did try MEMENTO and it works fine - not to pleased with what it reveals :-(15:04.34 
Robin_Watts henrys: yeah, lots of SEGVs/leaks.15:05.13 
henrys okay chris I quickly stammered something into the NEWS file.15:05.38 
chrisl henrys: thanks. Looks fine to me. I will *try* to gather the contents a bit earlier next time........15:06.18 
Robin_Watts henrys: I vaguely had an idea for a way of neatly encapsulating the output from a memsqueeze run into a web page.15:06.22 
  A table of grid elements, one per 'number of allocation events before failure'. Each one would be color coded; green for no leaks, clean shutdown, yellow for leaks, red for SEGV.15:07.45 
  And clicking on each one would show the actual script output for that stage after the table.15:08.07 
tkamppeter chrisl, thank you very much.16:18.41 
Robin_Watts http://ghostscript.com/~robin/out.png16:21.04 
  Now, if I'm smart, I'll go on holiday now, and not do any more testing.16:21.21 
chrisl Right, source archives all done, Windows binaries all done, Linux binaries all done.17:25.56 
  Anyone that wants to play before Monday: http://www.ghostscript.com/~chrisl/ghostscript-9.04.tar.gz and http://www.ghostscript.com/~chrisl/ghostpdl-9.04.tar.gz17:26.48 
  And I'm calling it a day........17:27.10 
Robin_Watts Congrats chrisl.17:32.42 
  Did you do ghostpdl 64bit binaries? (I assume the "todo" list is for the *next* release?)17:33.10
