"A plan to support source code indexing on debuginfod.d.n" by Sergio Durigan Junior in Somin https://debconf24.debconf.org/talks/132-a-plan-to-support-source-code-indexing-on-debuginfoddn/
Great news for those who could not attend the DebConf or have missed the conference because of time zone differences, there are so far 18 videos published for viewing at your leisure: https://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2024/DebConf24/ #debian #debconf24 #busan #korea #debiankorea https://micronews.debian.org/2024/1722315691.html #debian
Earlier this cycle Teemu Ikonen added support for displaying track position / length and a progress indicator to #phosh's media player widget 🥳 :
Gentle reminder: There'll be a #FossOnMobile devroom at #FrOSCon24 on 17./18. of August.
If you want to submit a talk, presentation, round table or BoF head to https://cfp.froscon.org/ .
All #LinuxMobile related topic welcome.
New blog post: Weekly GNU-like Mobile Linux Update (Weeks 28 and 29 of 2024) https://linmob.net/weekly-update-28-29-2024/
Can't join #GUADEC (https://events.gnome.org/event/209/) this year but at least I can watch the live stream on a 📱 running a #gtk based shell (#phosh) and lots of #gnome components with a video player using GTK and #gstreamer (#livi). Life could be worse.
I've tagged version 0.0.1 of #libcmatrix - a #matrix client library.
The project was initiated and developed by
Sadiq (https://gitlab.gnome.org/pksadiq) in order to add Matrix support to chatty (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty) for @purism
It has been a bit 😴 over the past months but my recent interest in #unifiedpush derailed me and I had a look at the code base, cleaned up minor things and figured it might make sense to tag a release so here we go: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/libcmatrix/-/releases/v0.0.1
Thanks @devrtz for the reviews!
@postmarketOS @EC_NGI @nlnet @EUCommission
We hope the EU will reconsider: https://phosh.mobi/posts/ngi-2025/
@EC_NGI and @nlnet make a dramatic impact to improve our sustainable, privacy and attention respecting #linuxmobile ecosystem. One of the very few answers we have to the duopoly of Android and iOS from Silicon Valley!
Because of that we are saddened about the @EUCommission not mentioning NGI programmes anymore in their draft of funding programmes for 2025. 😢
We signed the open letter, consider doing the same if your project received funding in the past.

PyGObject, the #Python bindings for #GTK, have recently merged support for asynchronous programming, closing an orthogonality gap between Python's async support and GTK having been single-threaded / event based since forever: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pygobject/-/merge_requests/189
This ends a decade of using projects such as gbulb that kindly bridged that gap.
New #dbusmock #release with bluez5 improvements, a new ModemManager mock, and fixing MacOS compatibility. Thanks to all contributors!

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (27/2024): Two Days Late
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-27-2024/
#LinuxMobile #PinePhone #Librem5 #postmarketOS #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch #FuriLabsFLX1
If you build #Debian packages a lot and want to test drive them quickly then "sudo debi" is your friend.
While @suraj_sloth is working on the #UnifiedPush connector side in #Chatty I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering #Matrix push gateways in #libcmatrix and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (26/2024): #Phosh 0.40.0 and other good news
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-26-2024/
#LinuxMobile #Librem5 #PinePhone #postmarketOS #Mobian #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch
#phosh 0.40 will correctly detect the #steamdeck's panel orientation and start up in landscape mode now! 🎉
Here's a photo of it running on #postmarketOS!
There are still a few rough edges with running pmOS, phosh, and the other UIs we support, on the Steam Deck... but it's still really nice to see one rough edge smoothed out.
pmOS on the Steam Deck, just like the blueberries in the photo, is not quite ready for consumption... 🤞 😄
Thank you @agx for your help and patience!
"#iPhones and #iPads are not general purpose computers" states #Apple. I vehemently disagree!!
