Debian uploads, Core22 KDE snap content pack and more!

/

I have been quite busy! I have been working on several projects so my cover image is a lovely sunset where I live. Debian: I have updated and uploaded several packages and working on more. KDE Snaps: I have reworked the CI to now do Core22 snaps! They will publish to the beta channel until we get them tested. First snap completed is the ever important KDE Frameworks / QT content snap + SDK! Applications will start after I tackle the kde-neon extention in snapcraft. GUI-Testing: I have begun learning/writing some GUI tests using python and https://invent.kde.org/sdk/selenium-webdriver-at-spi/, inspired by one of my favorite people, Harald. See https://apachelog.wordpress.com/2022/12/14/selenium-at-spi-gui-testing/ for more info and I hope to get these in repos near you soon! In closing, I am still seeking employment/sponsor amidst this terrible layoff season. If anyone knows of anyone with my diverse skill set please let me know. In the meantime if you can spare anything to keep the lights on I would be ever so grateful.

Representing KDE @ Ubuntu Summit in Prague

/

First, I would like to send a big Thank you! to Canonical for sponsoring my trip to Prague for the Ubuntu Summit! It was a great success. I saw some great talks and valuable workshops. I now know how to snap our applications the have daemons and services thanks to the Snapping Daemons and Services workshop. Prague itself is an amazing city. Wow. Just wow. I got to see old friends and meet many new ones. I will take away some wonderful memories. Did I mention a river cruise? Yes! It was great fun. I did a lightning talk with Jonathon and a Snapping Desktop Applications workshop with Olivier. The talk was “lightning” fast! But good practice for my speech giving skills ( a challenge for a shy person such as myself!) The workshop was great presentations of different ways snaps are done for different projects. The audience was smaller than I had hoped ( it was the end of the summit and many folks were wrapping up to leave.) I still left with a feeling of accomplishment. This week I will apply my new found knowledge and push out some more snaps!

KDE snaps at Ubuntu Summit 2022, see you in Prague!

/

I am pushing out a few more snaps as I prepare for the Ubuntu Summit next week! At the summit I will be co-hosting a snap workshop where I will dissect and explain what goes into snapping KDE apps. I am very excited! Some of the main goals to accomplish while I am there include: Start knocking out our wonderful PIM suite. Sort out apps that want access to system-files and give it to them. Calligra office suite. Access to the neon extention so I may update some issues I am running into. A few apps that require daemon ability ( I believe there is a workshop for this 🙂 ) See old friends that I haven’t seen in forever it seems! Todays releases are as follows: Kig Kreversi Kruler Kshisen Kigo Killbots Kiriki Kiten Please consider donating! Helps keep the lights on so I can get more Kool software out to you. https://www.patreon.com/sgmoore Cash App $ScarlettMoore0903 Stripe: https://buy.stripe.com/28o16y3PHcISf

KDE Gear snaps round 3!

/

While trying to stay warm in our first snow of the year, I got several apps tested and released in round 3 of https://www.scarlettgatelymoore.dev/kde-gear-snaps-round-2/ ! All of these are being ( re ) tested on both arm64 and amd64. Hence, the release is going slower than it will in the future. Thank you for your patience. Kalzium ( again ) Molecule editor works. Known bug downloading molecules. Just go to Home/Documents and rename the file hotsuff-access.xml to themolecule.cml and load molecule as a temporary work around until a permanent fix comes about. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=461027 Ktuberling Kbounce Kmplot Kbreakout Knavalbattle Kubrick ( Not on chromebook unfortunately, opengl errors need looking into. ) Kbruch Knetwalk Kwordquiz Knights ( Sound is fixed! ) Kollision Lokalize Kfourinline More rounds of bug gardening has been done, if you find bugs, or know one of your bugs is related to it being a snap, please assign to me. https://bugs.kde.org Please consider a donation so I may bring many more apps your way. https://www.patreon.com/sgmoore I am working on one time donations.
