Feb. 15, 2003

Hi there! Thanks for the quick replies and corrections for the english version of the interview. Now it has been corrected and uploaded, so I hope it serves better its purpose. Well, I'm expecting for feedback on the tarball now. That's the gap between rc1 and an official release! Best Jorge.-

Release candidate 1
by Jorge Arellano Cid Feb. 15, 2003

Feb. 15, 2003

Hi there! Finally, after a lot of work, the first release candidate tarball for dillo-0.7.0 is ready. The idea is to test this tarball and if it has no problems, the 0.7.0 release will be made of it (with only minor or cosmetical changes). Once again, I'm specially interested on non GNU/Linux platforms testing (bacause I already tested GNU/Linux). ------------------- Summary of changes: + Included the bookmarks server code inside the main tree (no separate tarball now, it all builds at once) + Added a workaround for nanosleep on Solaris in configure.in + Added a new icon for bookmarks and set ALT+B or ; as shortcuts. (there's also the option of hiding the icon from dillorc). + Made a new splash screen (contents and design). + Made a custom D_SUN_LEN definition to avoid inconsistencies with SUN_LEN, also switched memory clearing to sizeof and defined AF_LOCAL when not present. + Made ~/.dillorc/ have precedence over PATH when searching for plugins. + Added a SIGCHLD handler to avoid zombies when the dpi server is killed manually before dillo exits. + Bound find text to /. Now it works with CTRL+F or / + Added an icon for bookmarks. + Image tooltip now works with "title" instead of "alt". (had mistankenly switched to "text" before...) bm_srv12: + Made the convertion (import) from the old bookmarks format automatic. + Made it work when there's no bm.txt file present, and also when there's a zero sized bm.txt. + Fixed some Solaris compatibility glitches. + Fixed SUN_LEN issues. ------------------- The test emphasis should be on the new features. Please remember first to remove the bookmarks server binary from your ~/.dillo/ directory and killing the server if running, before testing. Now, a simple: ./configure make make install-strip should build and install everything right (it works here!) The plan is to make the official release this Sunday or early on Monday. Please send your feedback to this list. I'll be updating the site in the meanwhile, so please focus on the tarball. Last but not the least, the splash screen includes a link to the text version of an interview I gave to tux.cl magazine. The original is in spanish so I made a quick translation to english so everyone can read it. If you are knowledgeable in english grammar please read/correct it and send me the diffs. That'd be, as always, highly appreciated. Thanks a lot and I'll be expecting your feedback! Jorge.- PS: For those that read this far, here's the tarball: http://dillo.auriga.wearlab.de/dillo-0.7.0-rc1.tar.gz :-)

FYI: -l option and URL redirections
by Melvin Hadasht Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

Hi, When an HTTP URL is given along with the -l command line option, and if the URL is redirected by the server, the new URL is handled normally as if the -l option was not given. This behaviour can be seen with the http://www.google.com URL, at least when requesting it from France, in which case a 302 error code is given and Dillo is redirected to http://www.google.fr/. In that case, the Google logo images are downloaded. Whereas a direct dillo -l http://www.google.fr/ won't download the images. I do not consider this a serious issue, but for consistency I would have expected Dillo to show me the redirection error page with the target URL. The target URL being clickable and also retaining the SpamSafe mode. As said, this is not a high priority issue, it is rather a consistency issue. -- Melvin Hadasht

$SRCDIR/Makefile syntax
by Jan Stary Feb. 9, 2003

Feb. 9, 2003

Hi, just a minor correction. $SRCDIR/Makefile says uninstall-local: -if [ -d $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ]; then \ rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir)/dillorc*; \ elif [ -d /etc/ ]; then \ rm -f /etc/dillorc* fi but should say uninstall-local: -if [ -d $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ]; then \ rm -f $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir)/dillorc*; \ elif [ -d /etc/ ]; then \ rm -f /etc/dillorc* ; \ # <<-- here fi Jan

Dillo on Solaris
by Mail.com Janke Feb. 8, 2003

Feb. 8, 2003

Just pulled latest dillo from CVS & compiled on Solaris 8. It's a pretty slick browser. Some things to fix for Solaris builds: nanosleep() needs to be linked with -lrt. Adding something like: case $system in SunOS) LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -lrt" ;; esac to configure.in seems to fix that problem. Also, Solaris seems to not have AF_LOCAL and SUN_LEN defined. Adding defs for those two somewhere -- in a header or in dpi.c seems to fix those problems. #ifndef AF_LOCAL #define AF_LOCAL AF_UNIX #endif #ifndef SUN_LEN /* This system is not POSIX.1g. */ #define SUN_LEN(ptr) ((size_t) \ (((struct sockaddr_un *) 0)->sun_path) \ + strlen ((ptr)->sun_path)) #endif (I swiped that code from the nautilis project.) With those fixes & got it to built & it seems to work. I have not done the bookmark tarball yet. --Mike -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup

Dillo & Sylpheed-Claws integration page updated
by Melvin Hadasht Feb. 6, 2003

Feb. 6, 2003

Hi, I updated my pages concerning the integration of Dillo as an HTML mail viewer in Sylpheed-Claws. New screenshots reflecting the use of Dillo 0.7.0 were also added. The plans concerning Sylpheed-Claws were included, too. The URL is: http://melvin.hadasht.free.fr/home/dillo/sylpheed/ To summarize: currently, and not before Claws 0.8.11, Claws must be patched with the patches I provide in that page. It is planned that Claws 0.8.11 will officially include support to embed Dillo to view HTML mail. The current version of Claws is 0.8.9 and 0.8.10 is soon to be released. Dillo cvs and 0.7.0 and newer do not need to be patched anymore. Best regards -- Melvin Hadasht

Does FTP work? The page about achieved goals states that: "Fixed the plugin handler (FTP works again)" ? Any info about this?

Next release...
by Jorge Arellano Cid Feb. 5, 2003

Feb. 5, 2003

Hi there! I tried to make the release from where I'am now, but there're still some issues pending. For instance: the bookmarks server doesn't work when there's no bm.txt file, the conversion from the old format is not automatic and most importantly, bm_srv12.c code should be inside the final tarball. Some of those were fixed today (not commited yet) and the latter is pending. The problem is I don't know when I'll be able to reconnect, but in the meanwhile I will work on finishing the 0.7.0 tarball, so the next email should be something like a test petition for the candidate tarball. So far dpi over unix sockets has been tested in GNU.Linux and *BSD environments. See you soon Jorge.- PS: please keep reporting any further troubles you may find. Livio and Sebastian are still online and can take care of it.

Re: [Dillo-dev] autoconf/automake stuff in CVS

> > This list seems OK to me. Thanks Jorge. > > Are you savvy on autoconf/automake stuff? Not really. :-) I only know which files need to be around and which ones don't, and the list seemed OK. I wrote because I was among the ones who asked you to remove those files and I'm happy that you did.
