@Anarcat @jmm
1) couldn't get pwvu to build yet but it gets rid of pulseaudio totally so WFM (also cleaner interface)
2) raise / lower / mute volume and have a optical feedback
3) yeah :D
4) I guess it makes limited sense in NA
also wormhole-rs which I should really upload to NEW soon

@Anarcat nice post. Commenting (shamelessly advertising ) here my discoveries:

swtchr - a GNOME-like window switcher for sway
swayosd - OSD for sway (in NEW)
librespeed-cli - measure internet speed
meli - terminal mail client
fonts-schraubenkiste - label your screws
pwvucontrol - pipewire version of pavucontrol (not in debian yet)
railway-gtk - query travel info

@highvoltage @awai there's also OS Installer by Peter Eisenmann; GTK + Python based. I feel like Debian could use a "sleek" installer and ab wxpert one to ease access for first-time users

Kooha is now available in Debian unstable too. It's a neat GTK app to record your screen and / or audio.

Now I am stuck in Villach for an hour :/

My vacation is ending tomorrow but I had a great time overall. Visited a new country (Slovenia). Was impressed by a car-free Ljubljana and the politeness everywhere. Can only recommend it as travel destination.

@FineFindus right. I will try to get udisks into the archive, but this is not that of a huge priority atm.

Man, looking at the election results in East Germany I feel both angry and depressed.
I fear that Germany will become a fascist state again.
The great Sokee put it really well a few years back:

Seems like resistance and staying true to humans rights is the only solution for now.

@dusnm @ariadne @BrodieOnLinux I think company backing of Linux is great, but lets remember the companies are backing Linux because they have to and because it makes them money very much despite GPLv2. If a viable MIT licensed alternative shows up to be used in place of Linux, companies will dump Linux in a heartbeat (which I find very unfortunate, copyleft ftw).

@FineFindus don't mind the hijacking :) We haven't worked on GNOME Disks tbh. udisks-rs would need packaging from scratch, but that is easily doable. It hasn't been on my agenda yet, but seems straightforward enough. I take it gnome-disks needs a specific commit of udisks-rs right now ?

@decathorpe also GPG is provided by them in the backend and not that freely configurable. I ended up choosing riseup for Debian stuff and hope to migrate my private stuff to posteo soon™

@decathorpe I had to package four new crates so far: librsvg-rebind(-sys), gufo-common and gufo-exif. I hope this is it for now :)

So the latest GTK-rs release (0.9) is now available in #Debian unstable along with gstreamer-rs 0.23.
We also updated system-deps from 6.x to 7.x
Big thanks to jbicha who did most of the work for this transition. Most gtk-rs apps are already updated; though some are still being worked on.

@overflo 1 banger

On my way to a well-deserved vacation to Prague via train

turns out it does, just not the overlay part

man I wish xeyes would work with sway

@gagath unstable do be like that. I have to carry documents to a stable machine just to print :/
