Dear @junocomputers if you sell computers and use Free Software Operating systems it is not o.k. to assume you can free ride on community support.

It makes me sad to have mails from users in my inbox that are stuck with an unusable device on a Sunday and are seeking help to get it going again. This is your job.

Please listen to your customer's issue. If it's a software issue in the latest upstream version forward it with a good description.

Progress in supporting Indic languages in phosh-osk-stub:

- merged initial completer support for Indic languages based on libvarnam earlier this week
- have an MR to switch from libvarnam to more modern govarnam (thx @subins2000
- @arunmani is looking into making all the possible completions available
- have an MR to allow to switch between different completion engines automatically (e.g. use for Us & De and for (see video below)

@craftyguy @devrtz @philn @agx I certainly take MRs for more features (we recently gained playback speed adjustment). The current version on flathub is a bit dated.

@usia On PureOS / Debian / Mobian you just use

update-alternatives --config Phosh-OSK

On other systems you can just install to /usr/local and it will be picked up as it puts a `sm.puri.OSK0.desktop` in place there by default.

That said there's lots of things that phosh-osk-stub doesn't do so make sure you can switch back.

@LibreOfficeDE
Sieht spannend aus. Wird es das auch für freie Betriebssysteme auf Mobiltelefonen (z.B. mit /#GNOME oder ) geben?

@usia …and at scale 1.75 (again without phosh and completion disabled):

@usia Fractional or not shouldn't matter. Here's a screenshot at 800x800 scale 1.5 (just and -osk-stub).

@mntmn Sorry, no - I need to keep one daily used X11 application to ensure 's support is working properly and is the last one 😄

@leimon I didn't upload phosh-osk-stub (gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-) to Byzantium as I don't consider it production ready (it fits my personal use cases though). Older versions are in Octarine and recent ones are in Pureos Crimson and Debian testing. It builds and runs on Byzantium fine though (I'm using `l5-fetch-next phosh-osk-stub` to install it there).

People had different theories why phosh-osk-stub woudn't use the whole display width on wider displays so I was buckling up for a full afternoon of debugging sizing issues but as it turns out after a couple of minutes we were just missing a tightening-threshold in a HdyClamp: Rest of the afternoon saved thanks to inspector 🎉

phosh 0.31.0 is out 🚀📱:

Lots of fixes in ➕ better xdg-activation ➕ less CPU usage ➕ animations on tiling/max

now supports the tablet-mode of convertibles (based on work by Jonathan Hall)

p-m-s allows to configure the notification priority for waking up the screen (thanks to Suraj Kumar Mahto).

libcall-ui switched to GTK4 thanks to @antonok.

Check out the full release notes at phosh.mobi/releases/rel-0.31.0

@purism

@suguru I'd also appreciate feedback for gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh- - there's lose ends to fix in the UI but that would be rather simple once we're sure it's heading the right way.

Thanks to @antonok libcall-ui's main branch now uses GTK4/libadwaita. We've also tagged 0.2.0~beta1 for that.

For GTK3/libhandy applications there's still the 0.1.x branch.

Today's dpkg 1.22.0 upload enables new toolchain hardening build flags which will ultimately land in Debian trixie (packages need a rebuild to pick up the new flags, but the vast majority will see an upload or rebuild before the eventual stable release):

- On amd64 it enables Intel's Control-flow Enforcement Technology (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-)

- On arm64 it enables Branch Target Identification

- On amd64 and all ARMs -fstack-clash-protection is enabled (gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Ins)
