On my quest to land some more pending merge requests I finally reworked the mode based app filtering (social.librem.one/@agx/1050042) so only docked mode shows all apps by default while only adaptive ones are shown in mobile mode.

This can be toggled manually via a button and also disabled completely via a . Mobile mode gets more tidy this way (and you can always white list individual apps).

Today I learned (source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-) that you can bring up the App Search bar on Phosh to launch another app with Super-a.

This is really helpful when using your Phosh running device with a hardware keyboard, e.g. for #convergence.

Thanks @agx!

@mntmn I just backported stuff from upstream git to 1.18 so if you don't care about packaging then `gst-build` (gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstream) is even simpler. Once finished gst-play-1.0 --use-playbin3 jellyfish-15-mbps-hd-h264.mkv should be accelerated. The player is only there since i had issues getting accelerated video to work in in some situations and wanted to verify it works with (which it does). If you want to try that building gst-p-b, gtk4 and the player is enough.

@mntmn in case you're interested in as well: see source.puri.sm/pureos/packages
fand source.puri.sm/guido.gunther/l for a minimal player that I'm using to validate /#imx8 accelerated decoding with .

I've tagged version 0.9.23 of git-buildpackage (a tool to maintain packages in repositories): lists.sigxcpu.org/pipermail/gi

The release improves git-attributes handling and support.

Thanks to everybody who contributed to this release!

Stitched together a small (µ) video player using and to test accelerated video decoding on the using it's VPU. It gets along with 20% CPU usage when rendering the 15 Mbps jellyfish demo to a which is twice as much as the raw `gst-launch-1.0` pipeline (social.librem.one/web/statuses) but not too bad. It also suspends rendering on screen blank and prevent screen lock during playback so just enough for 'on the road battery drain testing'.

@Alexmitter @KekunPlazas @leimon @purism @brainblasted there are patches for that involving which are used in but gtk3 looks too frozen to get those in upstream so work is focusing on / here.

org.Gtk.MountOperationHandler support coming to so you can open encrypted volumes with swipeable, modal dialogs

@purism

I've published a new spin-off project from the #debian-janitor: #ognibuild aims to provide a basic interface to any buildsystem, including dependency discovery and resolution. jelmer.uk/ognibuild.html

@inuit it's one bit less to patch (PureOS patched this in amber too)

With >150 non-merge commits (~4.5 every day since the last release) this is one of the bigger releases commit wise.
