Upstreaming FreeBSD ports patches before 4.2.0?

2018-04-14 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Hi

Can we please upstream the patches from FreeBSD ports, before the 4.2.0
release?

That idlc memory alignment SIGBUS crash from
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=216206 is Clang specific,
not FreeBSD specific, and could happen on other operating systems.

Thank you
Damjan

Is Java 1.7. a requirement of Ant >=1.9.1?

I thought you mentioned Java 1.6 at some point as minimum.
(Just asking and thinking of the OS/2 port)

On my side, this looks OK but localization is still lagging behind.

Unless we deem it acceptable to get 4.2.0 out in English only (or with a 
significant percentage of English strings in the UI even for localized 
versions) this is still quite blocking, especially considering that 
there is an entire localization community that will need to be reactivated.


Localization is, so to say, under my "ownership" (meaning: it's an area 
where I've volunteered to lead the effort); but I can't commit to 
getting it done by a certain deadline right now. Volunteers welcome, of 
course; even beginners.


I do think we should try and get 4.2.0 out in all languages; but for a 
beta it would be acceptable to have English only, or incomplete 
translations.


Localization doesn't have a big impact in terms of branches since what 
we have now is not aligned to the code anyway. And localization files 
live in their own directory so conflicts are not to be expected.

  Andrea.

You can count on me.
But at the moment I am having troubles with po2oo or better how to get
the en-US template. ;-)

BTW: I managed to build Arabic and Ukrainian for Windows. There were
problems with packaging (NSIS). I could work around it, but am still
looking for a "real" solution...

I have previously volunteered to get the Portuguese version ready for release.
I am volunteering again.
Is there any work to be done on Pootle?

There is always something to improve on Pootle. ;-)

But that's not the point here: We need to get Pootle and the source code
in sync again.

After that is done, there will be *a lot* of work to be done on Pootle...

That one is a bit complicated to upstream.  In the FreeBSD port I only
apply the patch conditionally when building with recent clang on amd64.
I could be harmful in terms of memory consumption on 32-bit machines.
The changes in the patch would need to be #ifdefed in order to import
it.

Also the changes for the internal allocator are lightly tested at best.

Help Needed

2018-04-14 Thread Donnell Giambastiani

Hi;
I have used your open office program for quite a few years with
no problems. Last week I am not sure what happened but all of my saved
documents have just disappeared.  I really need your help to get them
back as I use them for my work and photos.

Can someone please get back to me as soon as possible so we can figure
out what happened.  I did not do anything new with the computer or add 
any
new programs so cannot explain or figure out what happened to make all 
my

documents just gone!

Donnell

Your documents are still on the computer, in the directory in which they were 
saved.  What has happened is that OpenOffice has lost the list of shortcuts to 
these documents, possibly due to a computer or program crash, or to an 
over-hasty power off of the computer before the internal housekeeping had been 
finally written to disk.  If you use /File /Open to navigate to the directory n 
which you saved these documents, as you select each one and open it, it will 
then appear on the recent Documents list.

Alright thank you.

Would it be better to just scrap cpprt, like gbuild modules already do?

Re: Minimum Ant version is now 1.9.1

2018-04-14 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Ant 1.9.x only needs Java 1.5, but the code I've written for the SDBC-JDBC
bridge and PostgreSQL database driver needs Java 1.7.
