Latest Bugs & Tasks

Can't reproduce it on recent revs.

Fixed in hrev49387.

Haven't seen it since then. Was probably fixed in the meantime.

In any case, this is a build issue outside of Haiku. You need to change the your build so that it will find the right header.

The xz package is part of the image. I guess you don't use a freshly downloaded image, but keep updating older installations. Something similar happened when the DejaVu font was outsourced. Installing packages from within apps would be a new enhancement ticket.
I remember PulkoMandy mentioning the idea to have archivers etc. work the same way as Translators today. Probably an R2 topic... Closing ticket.

hrev49382.

Mounted an NTFS partition (in read only mode) which has ~500 files of various file types. Double clicking some JPEG images takes about 8 seconds to open in ShowImage. During that time I can hear HDD seeking/reading noise. Probably ShowImage is trying to read the directory where this file is for caching.

Interestingly, opening the same image from Terminal using "ShowImage /path/to/image.jpg" takes 5 seconds. So there's some kind of a difference here about how the file is being opened.

Some other JPEG files in the same folder open within 3 seconds (using double click) in ShowImage.

It takes only 1 second to open the same file in QupZilla/WebPositive.

Opening it in DiskProbe is instant.

Downloaded a FreeBSD iso image:
​ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/ISO-IMAGES/10.1/FreeBSD-10.1-RELEASE-i386-dvd1.iso.xz

However, Haiku is unable to decompress the file. Expander shows an empty directory.

on my haiku nightly image hrev 49162 the tar command does not store file attributes set with the shell tool addattr. After unpacking the attributes are deleted

Just ran into this one while compiling QtCreator.

../3rdparty/cplusplus/Bind.cpp:503:35: error: 'to_string' is not a member of 'std'
                                 = std::to_string(static_cast<long long>(constantValueAsInt));
                                   ^

A website i use for work often crash on a particular action.

hrev49378.

Mounting ntfs partitions in DriveSetup doesn't result in a dialog offering read only mounting.

The ban (should) be removed now. Please let me know if it isn't (send me a /msg on IRC or email.)

Reopening, as I don't agree with waddlesplash either and I don't think this has been discussed properly with other members of the project before taking action.

It was discussed with Alex and Puck, but I suppose that a more formal discussion would have been better, yes.

I have been registered on freenode for ever ... i get:

Registering is not enough. You have to authenticate (log in) every time you connect to the server. Adding your password into the "server password" option in Vision will do this for you.

The following app play sound but show event queuing problems (ClientNode.cpp) and starts with a large lateness:

I've rechecked the code, and begin to suppose it's an Haiku bug.

HDS can store several screenshots per package, however, HaikuDepot can only show the first one.

The IRC channel requires authentication with NickServ (instructions on how to do this: ​https://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup) in order to post messages, because lately there have been a large number of trolls in the channel. Requiring NickServ authentication cuts down on said trolls because it forces users to register an account and verify their email.

I suppose we could add that link to the topic of the channel if there are enough people confused about how to use NickServ...

We use the #haiku irc channel as much as the website as a first contact porthole for bringing in new users and / or developers. Suddenly the channel is locked and one has to "register", whatever that means, to ask a question.
