 wb9688 | Yeah | 13:03:19 |
| wb9688 | izzy: Note that it's Segoe UI, not Segue | 13:04:32 |
 izzy | Well, they should know which fonts they require, right? ;) | 15:04:47 |
| wb9688 | Yeah | 15:22:54 |
 Bubu | izzy: what happened here? https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1421 | 15:28:45 |
| Bubu | or maybe I don't even want to know. | 15:29:02 |
| Bubu | if the request for removal is valid (for whatever reasons) could either remove the app yourself or ping me, so I can do it? | 15:29:56 |
| Bubu | valid as in the requester is indeed the upstream author... it was hard to follow that issue | 15:30:29 |
| izzy | Bubu: quite confusing. I had to pull all details out of his nose, bit by bit. Looks like one of their devs went crazy and demoted all his collegues to "developer" status. As they no longer were able to do "real work", they started a fork. Now they want us to switch metadata to the new repo. | 15:33:06 |
| izzy | You only notice that other repo is more up-to-date if you check all of its branches. One of those indeed was updated just several hours ago. Which is not reflected anywhere else. | 15:34:07 |
| izzy | TL;DR: If I understood correctly, they want YAML metadata updated so all URLs point to the new repo. Hence I recommended a MR on fdroiddata. | 15:35:11 |
 _hc | I say just remove it and move on, it doesn't look like izzy or any other fdroid contributor did anything wrong | 15:35:14 |
| izzy | _hc: IMHO the "remove" is a language barrier problem. They want to MOVE, not REMOVE. Look at the English Hernandez is using. | 15:36:15 |
| izzy | Hard to grasp. | 15:36:27 |
| _hc | "Withdrawal" is remove, not move | 15:37:47 |
| _hc | IMHO | 15:38:18 |
| izzy | Ah, wait, he opened another issue… Well, that one indeed. WTF is he expecting? Throwing in some puzzle pieces and expecting us to use our crystal balls? | 15:38:54 |
| izzy | Original issue/discussion here: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1282 | 15:39:39 |
| izzy | Start reading at https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1282#note_377784596 for context. | 15:40:55 |
| izzy | "the browser Midori Next have you had a repository change but we are the ones that are supporting the project that we can do so that F-Droid detects the changes?" | 15:42:03 |
| izzy | Without any context, just out of the blue. | 15:42:53 |
| izzy | "have you had a repository change": No, we (F-Droid) had none… | 15:43:19 |
| Bubu | I'll remove it | 15:54:15 |
| izzy | Bubu: feel free to follow the removal request. I'd better refrain from further communication with Hernandez. Especially as in that new issue he seems already to threaten me ("what happens to you"). Thanks for the fish. | 15:54:55 |
| Bubu | this seem to not be worth our time really 🤷 | 15:55:22 |
| izzy | I can't agree more. Thanks, BubuIIC! | 15:55:39 |
| izzy | Sad that I'm no diplomat: "A diplomat is a person that tells you to go to hell in a way you'll actually look forward to the trip…" | 15:57:54 |
| izzy | Sorry. | 15:58:06 |
| Bubu | Uhm... https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/1421#note_378586569 | 17:34:33 |
| izzy | Bubu: thanks! If it should come up: I'm completely willing to forget the whole thing (after all, I guess his "rage" has a different source and I just happened to be at the vent). Considering the background (how I would love to be locked out from my own project!), no bad feelings if Hernandez really wants to "calm the waves". No explicit "apology" needed, he's got my sympathy. | 18:48:08 |
