A slow day was nice after yesterday. Woke up first at about 08:00, then slept until almost 13:00. Got up, ate some food, irced, closed a few bugs. Also cleaned some more, my flat is almost shined now -- nice. I think I'm going to buy a mini-itx box for KDC and loghost, but not sure yet -- it's a bit of money.
It feels like I'm catching the flu; my throat has been sore for the whole day. Hopefully, it's nothing, but I fear the worst.
I'm tired.. got up a little after 1300. IRC-ed, crashed alfa and a little later ravel, when trying to build glibc and gcc. Celebrated 2^30^ seconds since the epoch. Later, I went to a friend's birthday. Had fun, drank beer and ate hot dogs. Nice. :) Later, once I was out of beer I drank a few glasses of good whisky. Good afternoon.
Got home again, and irced a little again before going to bed. I IRC too much.. :(
I don't like gcc. I don't like glibc. And I surely don't like them on amd64. I've been trying to get an up-to-date biarch GCC built for amd64. This failed due to glibc (32 bit) not being biarch. So I started rebuilding glibc in biarch mode. It killed first alfa, one of the boxes at work (nothing critical, I was supposed to stress-test it). Then I killed ravel, one of the developer-accessible AMD64 machines. This was of course due to a kernel bug, so after maswan went out there and rebooted the machine, we got a new kernel installed; this one seems fairly stable so far. So, in order to rebuild gcc so that I can test that the new glibc works, I'll have to rebuild glibc (32 bit), then gcc (biarch) then at last glibc (32 and 64 bit). Fun, isn't it?
Bah, in order for pybloxsom with the txtl backend to work somewhat properly, one has to fix the txtl.py:cb_preformat definition to something like:
def cb_preformat(args):
if args['parser'] == PREFORMATTER_ID and \
args['request'].getData()['flavour'] == "html":
return parse(''.join(args['story']))
else:
return ''.join(args['story']).replace("&","&")
This will make the RSS feed work properly.
