kens | chrisl ping | 08:06.04 |
chrisl | kens: pong | 08:15.55 |
kens | Do you have any ideas about that CUPS bug report ? | 08:16.12 |
chrisl | Not a clue - leaving it to the cups people | 08:16.28 |
kens | The device is a contrib device | 08:16.28 |
| Oh OK, then it'll just languish | 08:16.37 |
chrisl | Well, we have no way to test it, so..... | 08:16.56 |
kens | Absolutely. I did think that if they supplied an example file and command line I might be able to bisect and find where things changed. | 08:17.19 |
| But they appear to be going from an 8.x to a 9.16 (!) versio. | 08:17.50 |
chrisl | but *lots* of things will have changed the bitmap - if we can't view it, then we're stuffed | 08:17.52 |
kens | So it coudl be almost anything | 08:17.56 |
chrisl | I guess we could hack it just to spit out the raster, but even that wouldn't guarantee finding the problem, and it would make bisecting a huge pain | 08:21.38 |
kens | Yes it would. I'm happy to leave it | 08:21.54 |
| Googling for the printer just brings up Japanese sites that I can't read | 08:23.47 |
chrisl | And no real hints about what npdl actually is (other than, presumably, NEC's PDL) | 08:24.38 |
kens | Crumbs eBay has one for £1000 | 08:24.42 |
| I guess it was only sold in Japan | 08:25.11 |
chrisl | It certainly looks that way | 08:25.48 |
| We could try contacting the author - from 1998.... | 08:26.31 |
kens | Time to leave it, there's no way for us t investigate. | 08:26.34 |
| Well translating one of the NEC sites, it seems their npdl driver is right up to date | 08:29.06 |
| But anyway | 08:29.44 |
ray_laptop | Now that fredross-perry is back, I need to see if he can go fix peeved | 13:53.30 |
fredross-perry | After the meeting(s) I'll head up there. | 13:54.17 |
kens | had forgotten today was Tuesday | 13:54.43 |
ray_laptop | thanks, fredross-perry | 14:09.02 |
chrisl | kens: Should I pull the /.gs.pdfobj# fix into the release? | 14:36.26 |
kens | I wouldn't bother. Its been like that for a while, and I'm a little wary of it. It took more efort than I liked to get it to work. | 14:36.51 |
chrisl | Okay, thanks | 14:37.05 |
sebras | I have resolved 698839 with four small commits on http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=user/sebras/ghostpdl.git;a=shortlog care to take a look? | 18:47.14 |
HenryStiles | sebras: wonder where str-p39 went. log version 1 * successfully decodes CVision embedded bitstream str-p39 ... | 19:04.34 |
sebras | HenryStiles: I couldn't find it in giles account ghostscript.com nor did shelly have it. | 19:05.29 |
| HenryStiles: let me look a bit further then. | 19:08.04 |
HenryStiles | sebras: so we are stuck updating these hashes all the time, if the tests could be embedded we could stick them in the regression test and get rid of the test. Other than that lgtm | 19:08.57 |
sebras | HenryStiles: correct. I did find https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12885274/Re_JBIG2bitstreamTestfiles.eml and https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3906?attachmentSortBy=fileName | 19:18.34 |
| HenryStiles: but I'm not entirely sure what the conclusion was, however I don't find the file in their repo: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=pdfbox-jbig2.git;a=tree;f=src/test/resources/images;hb=HEAD | 19:18.54 |
| so.. licensing unclear? if so perhaps we don't want to embed it into the repo. | 19:19.19 |
HenryStiles | yeah let's not worry about it | 19:20.15 |
| thanks sebras | 19:20.36 |
| Forward 1 day (to 2018/03/21)>>> | |
