00:03:05 *** Suiseiseki (n=POKJ@wikipedia/Antonio-Lopez) has joined #portableapps 00:03:44 i agree, don't feed the trolls 00:04:59 If people are genuinely interested, I can post details of the versions, GPL violations, EULA violations and the 'misstatements' to reporters so there is a public record of it. It may assist with educating publishers as well. 00:05:28 Hall of Shame. 00:07:42 Maybe. Not sure if it's worth it, really. It's a small-fry project with a small userbase. Though it would be nice to make them aware of what they've actually gotten themselves into. 00:08:04 Yeah. It's probably the biggest of our "competition" though, I'd say? 00:08:52 That would be Ceedo. THey're a decent 2nd to us. 00:09:02 Then U3. Then WinPenPack. 00:09:07 OK. 00:09:13 Yeah, I was forgetting about WinPenPack 00:09:18 LiberKey would be more like 5th or 6th, 00:09:21 And U3 is so easy to forget about completely... 00:09:27 Different market really. And it's dead. 00:09:31 And at least WinPenPack usually includes source and credits. 00:09:35 Yeah 00:09:44 They do things decently and in order. 00:09:45 Framakey does, too. They mod our stuff for the French folks. 00:09:56 Yep 00:10:20 Can't believe they copied eXpresso :'( 00:10:22 Lupo doesn't. He's probably right behind Liberkey in terms of users. 00:10:33 That far up, eh? 00:11:05 I've been trying to get Lupo to release source and quire permission from mozilla. 00:11:16 *acquire 00:11:26 gluxon: (/very/ dryly) good luck 00:12:29 Yeah, Mozilla won't give Lupo permission. ANd they definitely won't give LiberKey permission. 00:12:41 Ah. 00:12:52 And they wouldn't look for it anyway. 00:13:06 Then their only option is to use IceCat. 00:13:44 Not "only", there are other trademark-free builds. 00:13:49 But the equivalent of it, yes. 00:14:26 WinPenPack had to remove the original X-Firefox. They're not bundling the actual Firefox installer and pulling files out of it. But they're actually still in violation for calling it X-Firefox. Liberkey makes no attempt at legality and just repackages it and modifies the settings without permission. 00:16:08 Yeah, they would be. Thinking of name restrictions, should I go and take down links to TrueCrypt Portable as derivatives aren't allowed to use "TrueCrypt" in the name according to the TrueCrypt License? I've given ample time for the developer to release a new, rebranded version 00:17:40 Hmm... did he reach out to the TrueCrypt folks at all? Can we? 00:17:43 brb 00:18:45 *** Chazz (n=chazz@unaffiliated/dabomb69) has joined #portableapps 00:18:45 Chazz is the awesome developer of Bash Portable http://portableapps.com/node/20277 and GEdit Portable! (And Gnumeric Portable) :D 00:19:00 I doubt he did. We probably could. 00:19:11 We need a more official TrueCrypt Portable at some time. 00:19:42 I think the Launcher will help with it. I'll be putting in privilege escalation with the UAC plug-in soon 00:21:24 privilege escalation? you mean privilege requesting, don't you? 00:22:48 Either term will do. 00:24:34 I know "privilege escalation" is more often used as a type of security hole, but it's what is done. 00:25:00 Sure, the user has to type in a password or press "OK" in the UAC box, but it's still escalation of privileges 00:25:22 JohnTHaller: should I upload PAL1PA1 to SourceForge? 00:26:11 I imagine I'd use the directory name "PortableApps.com Launcher\PortableApps.com Launcher 1.0 Pre-Alpha 1" -- or "PortableApps.com Launcher\1.0 Pre-Alpha 1"? 00:26:44 escalation normally means, that something is uncontrollable, which is not the case ;) 00:27:11 I don't think it means that 00:27:46 .dict escalation 00:27:46 escalation - 1. increase 00:34:23 JohnTHaller: I set the default download on the SourceForge project to PortableApps.com_Platform_Setup_1.6.exe rather than 1.5.2 00:35:38 ChrisMorgan: Wait you have the power to do that? :D 00:35:45 I do now. 00:37:35 I'm not an admin of the project, but I can access the shell service (to create my nice shiny new launcher repository), commit to mercurial repositories (to work on my nice shiny new launcher) and manage files (to upload releases of my nice shiny new launcher). 00:38:21 Sweet :) 00:38:48 an\d back 00:38:51 thnx chris 00:39:37 * ChrisMorgan reckons SourceForge should replace the main project download page with it as it is in the file admin page minus the administrative commands 00:40:08 Then it would load folder contents etc. with Ajaxy techniques rather than trying to load a complex HTML and Javascript page which is almost 5MB. 00:43:18 JohnTHaller: should I give a path for the launcher forum thread, development/launcher or should I just leave it with the plain boring node/NNNNN? (That path is referenced in the package in expectation of what it will be when finished.) 00:44:31 Give it a URL in the docs of /development for now as the official one since we'll add it there when it's done. We'll get it up with a link from /dev to the beta topic next week 00:45:06 development/launcher? 00:45:34 no, just pa.c/dev 00:45:37 for now anyway 00:45:43 Oh, OK, I see 00:45:46 In the package 00:45:51 yea 00:46:37 Ahhh, the power of bash and grep... vim `grep -l development/launcher *` 00:48:19 Sure, I should use sed, but I haven't looked at it yet. 00:50:43 Gah, no appicon_(16|32).png 00:51:14 In what? 00:51:19 PAL 00:51:21 Silly me. 00:57:07 JohnTHaller: Since you're here too... ChrisMorgan, do you recall what reg entries from Qt you found in KVirc portable that were left behind? 00:57:22 Gizmokid2005: I didn't try 00:57:28 Sorry 00:57:50 and JohnTHaller, my question for you is since they're Qt bs reg entries, and aren't needed for anything, do you have any problems with just deleting them upon close? 00:57:53 As far as I can see though the Qt plugin cache must be enabled - there's no way of disabling it at runtime 00:57:56 ChrisMorgan: you found them a while back... 00:58:11 Gizmokid2005: they were from my local KVIrc installation 00:58:15 if you don't have them handy I'll just find them again... 00:58:18 ahh 00:58:20 alright. 00:58:29 Or actually... maybe there were some from right at the start 00:58:40 I think that they should be there though unless you manually kill them 00:59:05 I'll be putting killing of the relevant Qt plugin cache stuff into the launcher soon 01:00:55 Heh heh... it appears that you /do/ get told when a program crashes in Wine :D 01:01:03 PortableApps.com Installer just died :-( 01:01:37 Just like Windows... "The program PortableApps.comInstaller.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." in the white area 01:01:59 odd 01:02:08 never seen that. what did you DO chris? 01:02:21 Just ran the PortableApps.com Installer in Wine. 01:02:32 Then the rest of the message is Wine-specific... /not/ like Windows :-) 01:02:37 I'll try it without the CLA 01:02:42 Hmm.. odd. Died as soon as you fired it up? 01:02:47 Yep 01:02:56 It's in some threading stuff 01:03:13 The backtrace seems to indicate that anyway 01:03:15 ChrisMorgan: yeah, but I'd like to get it finished up in my launcher...since I'm doing a rewrite of it to try and use the built-in switch to specify an INI which in turn specifies the profile location 01:03:41 What it said was "Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x02b09510 in 32-bit code (0x0040139d)." 01:04:01 Possibly running a 64-bit Ubuntu machine isn't helping with it. 01:04:04 JohnTHaller: are you OK with the entries just being blown away? 01:04:16 what entries? 01:04:28 When I put an invalid path in, and when appicon_*.png weren't there, it failed normally. 01:04:46 JohnTHaller: Qt plugin cache entries in the registry. 01:04:58 they have no paths or anything...it's just bs bloat 01:05:21 Tried again to refresh my memory, going through the wizard rather than specifying the directory in the command line, and it got to "Creating PortableApps.com Installer..." and then crashed 01:05:41 Same page fault. 01:05:49 :-( 01:06:28 Probably due to how it spawns makensis.exe. 01:07:28 Digg it please! http://digg.com/software/PortableApps_com_Suite_and_Platform_1_6_Released_for_USB 01:07:37 * ChrisMorgan doesn't use digg 01:07:53 lame :-P 01:08:04 Oh come on, I waste enough time in here as it is. 01:08:13 And this launcher work, when I could be working on my own project... 01:08:18 *sigh* the things I do ;-) 01:12:28 alright, must be off to dinner. sending a friend off to new zealand for a year. 01:12:44 night all 01:13:48 Bye 01:13:50 night JohnTHaller 01:14:01 *** daBomb69 (n=chazz@bb-183-006.omnitelcom.com) has joined #portableapps 01:14:01 daBomb69 is the genius that forgot to include Perl in Perl Portable xP 01:15:40 *** JohnTHaller has parted #portableapps () 01:20:27 *** Res2216firestar (i=Sam@wikipedia/Res2216firestar) has joined #portableapps 01:27:35 So I think the ExecDos plugin doesn't work in Wine. 01:31:22 *** Res2216firestar has quit ("Leaving") 01:42:06 arethusa in #winehq suggested I try upgrading from 1.1.31 (Ubuntu dev version)... to 1.1.37 (PPA dev version) and now it's working fine :-) 01:42:11 And so, I am happy :-) 01:42:17 *** Chazz has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) 01:46:27 Any last issues anyone would like to point out before I make the release of the PortableApps.com Installer 1.0 Pre-Alpha 1? 01:46:43 *** root (n=chazz@bb-183-006.omnitelcom.com) has joined #portableapps 01:47:11 *** root is now known as Guest97072 01:47:33 It... crashed again! :-( 01:49:51 you could always pull the latest svn and compile yourself and see if that works 01:49:57 I've done that occasionally 01:50:29 warning though it can be a pain to compile 01:50:54 I was running PAI 1.0.2 by accident. 1.0.3 works :-/ 01:50:58 *** Res2216firestar (i=Sam@wikipedia/Res2216firestar) has joined #portableapps 01:51:05 Ours not to reason why, ours but to CELEBRATE! 01:51:07 :-) 01:51:17 *** daBomb69 has quit (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)) 02:00:45 *** sar3th is now known as sar3th|away 02:17:58 *** gluxon has quit ("Leaving.") 02:24:35 *** Bjorn_H (n=BjornH@81-235-164-62-no21.tbcn.telia.com) has joined #portableapps 02:37:19 Weird bug.

Sounds like a Wine problem, and one I'll do some research on 03:23:12 I looked at that 03:23:41 If you liked you could run it in Wine and then contact their team directly. Having me as a middleman doesn't help, I'm sure. 03:23:55 actually, it really helps 03:24:23 I don't have a Linux box right now, just a LiveCD (which, IIRC, won't let me install apps) - I'm relying heavily on others to provide Wine feedback atm 03:24:40 and so far, you're the only one who's tried KidSafe on Wine and told me how it went 03:25:06 computerfreaker: you could do a /really/ roundabout way and use andLinux 03:25:17 Wine in andLinux in Windows 03:25:19 Fun fun :D 03:25:21 * computerfreaker wonders if that would work 03:25:28 Should do. 03:25:39 I do have something like andLinux - Portable Ubuntu 03:25:47 and it does work, mostly, on my system 03:25:49 The coLinux kernel is just the kernel built for Windows. 03:25:54 Doesn't that require rebooting? 03:26:06 no, I don't think so 03:26:09 doesn't for me, anyway 03:26:16 Oh... maybe it's something different I'm thinking of 03:26:23 it's something like a virtual machine and something like QEMU 03:26:28 here, let me grab a link for you 03:26:40 http://portableubuntu.demonccc.com.ar/ 03:26:46 *** WastePotato has quit (Connection timed out) 03:28:25 oh, I /can/ install apps on a LiveCD! 03:28:26 Yeah, that's a different one to the one I knew 03:28:32 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=840478 03:28:35 Sure. When you reboot they'll be gone though. 03:28:46 yeah, which is a definite disadvantage 03:29:01 it might be better than Portable Ubuntu, though, since PUbuntu crashes pretty frequently 03:29:23 If you can install software, use VirtualBox 03:29:45 So that Portable Ubuntu Remix is andLinux 03:29:54 Plus or minus 03:29:59 I've got VBox Portable, just haven't gotten around to setting it up yet; I think that just became a high priority. 03:30:03 *** excid3|asus (n=Chris_Ol@24-107-215-150.dhcp.stls.mo.charter.com) has joined #portableapps 03:30:20 and yes, from what I can tell, PUbuntu is just andLinux with some changes 03:31:51 WOW 03:32:04 just tried installing Wine on PUbuntu and almost blew out my entire system 03:33:13 :D 03:33:23 Grand. 03:34:14 definitely 03:34:32 I went to the Package Manager, got asked for the admin password, and the entire thing locked up 03:34:41 Nice. 03:34:44 better still, the login screen covered my *entire* screen - I couldn't get at anything 03:34:47 Have you used the package manager before? 03:34:56 yes, but only in VBox 03:35:11 So long as you knew your password or could press cancel... 03:35:38 I couldn't press Cancel 03:35:42 the whole dialog iced up 03:36:17 and since the dialog covered my screen, I couldn't get anything.
