 <<<Back 1 day (to 2013/09/08)2013/09/09 
ray_laptop OK. That should fix it.17:21.50 
Anaphaxeton kick the bot, help Anaphaxeton !17:22.25 
ray_laptop Anaphaxeton: did you need help, or does that mean something ?17:22.58 
ray_laptop is very happy with auto-complete with someone having a nick like Anaphaxeton17:23.50 
Anaphaxeton yes i do need help, with headless cups+ghostscript17:24.08 
  this is my last try17:24.24 
  $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-dynamic --with-ijs --with-jbig2dec --without-x --with-drivers=ALL --with-fontpath=/usr/share/fonts/Type1:/usr/share/fonts --enable-freetype --without-luratech --with-system-libtiff --disable-compile-inits17:24.27 
  i havent used it though17:24.35 
  but ldd gs shows expected dependencies17:24.49 
  my questions are17:25.02 
  do i need jpeg,png,tiff,fonts support?17:25.18 
  dont those come from the desktop computer to the print server say, ready to be printed?17:25.40 
ray_laptop Anaphaxeton: OK. configure only creates the Makefile. You have to do the make. 17:25.42 
Anaphaxeton i did and it compiled and installed it in /tmp, then checked gs with ldd and it seemed fine17:26.16 
ray_laptop Anaphaxeton: no, gs needs jpeg, png and tiff (and fonts), but those are part of the src17:26.25 
Anaphaxeton even though it is server side?17:26.49 
ray_laptop I'm not sure if configure will check for libjpeg, libtiff, etc. but it will use the ones from the gs/ sources if you don't have them installerd17:27.34 
Anaphaxeton ok17:28.41 
  i will package it and through it to the server17:28.55 
  throw17:29.00 
ray_laptop Anaphaxeton: YES. gs needs those because PS and PDF's have images encoded. libtiff may not be needed if you don't build in or use any tiff output devices, and similarly for libpng17:29.01 
  but jpeglib is used to load images (also jbig2dec openjpeg and zlib) since images may be coded in JBIG2, JPX or JPEG17:30.04 
  Anaphaxeton: I am concerned that you have --disable-compile-inits since that means you must have the Resource/ paths on the server in the correct place w.r.t the binary17:31.26 
Anaphaxeton actually i picked that by archlinux17:32.10 
ray_laptop we usually recommend packaging with COMPILE_INITS=1 (don't disable it)17:32.11 
Anaphaxeton ok i have more faith in you than arch17:32.36 
ray_laptop that way gs will have all the things it expects internally (droidsansfallback for CIDFont substitution, all the required basic ICC profiles, and a compatible set of Fonts since what you have may not have all you need and a good Fontmap file for GS)17:33.53 
  Anaphaxeton: good luck. I'll be around off and on in case you have problems17:35.20 
Anaphaxeton thank you very much17:36.02 
  i hope i wont have to bother you anymore!17:36.12 
ray_laptop I have to reboot. Stoopid windows is chewing up 18% of my CPU's with csrss.exe (Client Server Runtime Processes)17:37.46 
mvrhel_laptop robin_watts_mac: are you back home?18:33.39 
Robin_Watts I am.18:34.44 
mvrhel_laptop how was the show on Sunday and your flight?18:34.56 
Robin_Watts We didn't visit the show.18:35.07 
mvrhel_laptop oh18:35.10 
Robin_Watts didn't start til 12, so it seemed silly to traipse into town just for a couple of hours.18:35.26 
mvrhel_laptop yes18:35.30 
Robin_Watts flight was fine.18:35.40 
mvrhel_laptop I flew out of chicago around 7:30 last night18:35.41 
Robin_Watts about 90 mins after us, and 90 mins before tor.18:36.20 
mvrhel_laptop looks like ken round a reasonable flight for the next staff meeting18:36.26 
Robin_Watts I must have missed that. He spent a lot of time looking at options.18:37.10 
mvrhel_laptop it was in yesterday's logs18:37.23 
Robin_Watts Right. Air Canada is one option.18:38.14 
  how was your flight?18:43.02 
kens Robin_Watts : (and tor for the logs) there's a Delta airlines option too. Its about as fast as the Air Canada one but it has some advantages. Its a Virgin code share for the first leg to LAX (but its Delta on all other legs) and they have premium economy on all legs of the flight. Air Canada only do PE on a few selected flights (not the ones we need). THe majopr downdide is the poor in-flight entertainment on the LAX-OGG legs (o18:50.27 
  verhead screens, how 20th century)18:50.27 
kens is happy to see ghostbot back, and hopes we didn't miss anything important18:51.06 
mvrhel_laptop hmm I need to do some significant error clean up in gsicc_create19:09.43 
  and clearly another bug as I review this19:45.12 
russcriptor hey guys, i'm trying to build the latest version from source21:36.51 
  but git is blocked over here21:37.03 
  although http urls work21:37.08 
  but when I try to clone mupdf21:37.18 
  it tries to get Submodules (thirdparty things) using a git url21:37.36 
  any way around that?21:38.30 
  is there a download zip function like in github?21:39.19 
robin_watts_mac russcriptor: Nope.22:02.45 
  You can possibly change them manually in the obvious way.22:03.12 
russcriptor or not so obvious22:07.44 
  I'm going down a different path now trying to link against the c code using python ctypes22:08.08 
  the example.c states that I should compile a debug build first22:08.29 
  but i don't see a way to do that22:08.38 
Robin_Watts to compile a debug build of mupdf?22:09.02 
  make build=debug22:09.07 
russcriptor yea22:09.07 
  great, that worked, thank you22:09.37 
Robin_Watts fab.22:09.53 
russcriptor any idea what I should tell ctypesgen in order to generate the proper types for me?22:10.29 
  https://code.google.com/p/ctypesgen/22:10.31 
  I'm basically trying to reimplement example.c in python22:10.40 
  or would this not work since there are no libraries to link against?22:11.42 
Robin_Watts sebras: Have you and tor booked a hotel yet?23:28.39 
  All the plans for the weekend will fall apart if we can't find somewhere to leave your luggage that's close enough to Marylebone for us to be able to pick it up for Helen to take it home with her when we go to the concert.23:29.40
