00:01.11 brlcad but it was (apparently) really easy way to get pretty shiny buttons in tcl that looked modern
00:05.21 louipc we had shiny things back then

02:12.09 starseeker grr. Anybody in here with an AMD64 system running Gentoo?
02:58.04 yukonbob starseeker: hey :)
03:10.33 starseeker howdy :-)
03:18.09 yukonbob what's shaking? Hows the Gentoo?
03:30.53 Maloeran starseeker, I do
05:04.56 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/tclscripts/geometree/GeometryBrowser.tcl: go ahead and have it use draw instead of e so it's clear what's going on to new users

05:28.24 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/configure.ac: let tcl and tk know where they're coming from, and don't cache the results of tclConfig.sh or tkConfig.sh so that Tcl's subconfigure will detect properly itself when we're compiling tcl/tk
05:31.29 yukonbob brlcad: how long have you been using autoconf et al.
05:31.30 yukonbob ?

12:45.42 starseeker yukonbob: Heh, sorry - playing IRC tag
12:47.04 starseeker Maloeran: Great! Do you think you could do me a favor and see if the latest ebuild works on AMD64 now that I've got the eclass included? http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77197
13:34.50 brlcad yukonbob: as a user or a developer?
13:36.52 brlcad as a dev, seven years or so I suppose
13:37.00 brlcad as a user, much longer

16:45.16 brlcad ``Erik: += doesn't work reliably with pre automake 1.8 (and 1.6 is the min baseline)
16:45.27 ``Erik bleh
16:45.28 brlcad that's why it's not used anywhere
16:45.44 ``Erik I'll back it out on my next change to that file
16:46.07 ``Erik apple should get their ass in gear so we can give up that archaic version
16:46.35 brlcad 10.5 updates it to 1.10
16:47.25 brlcad I had a thread on the apple mailing list about it, they apparently couldn't update the version before a major update
16:47.44 ``Erik then they shoulda updated it with, like, 10.2 O.o :D
16:47.59 brlcad because the autotools were shipped as part of the base OS, not part of the dev tools
16:48.11 brlcad with 10.5, they supposedly broke them out proper
16:49.06 brlcad they coulda, but it was only like 1.7 when 10.2 came out, and it'd "just" released
16:50.14 brlcad so when it was dire (by 10.4 release), they couldn't do anything about it until the next major
16:50.39 brlcad pretty stupid, but there it is
16:54.08 ``Erik *shrug* autotools version is a burden entirely on the developers, do you choose fugly automake files, or make the developer upgrade automake... I personally favor the latter :D
16:54.13 ``Erik are you in today?
16:56.11 ``Erik aight
16:58.51 brlcad so long as you cross-platform test it and it behaves when sdl/python aren't installed
16:59.04 ``Erik ayup, I'm working on the SDL/python bit right now
16:59.24 brlcad there is some testing in there already "does it work"
16:59.47 brlcad even better would be to rip out the python part and change the sdl part to libdm :)
17:01.11 ``Erik is libdm fast enough? heh
17:02.14 ``Erik and does it handle key and mouse events? O.o
17:04.18 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/configure.ac: AC_DEFINEs for python and SDL
17:17.46 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/adrt/Makefile.am: add libutil to the "always compile" list. Back out the += for those using automake 1.6.
17:18.58 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/adrt/libutil/ (display.c display.h): workaround for lack of SDL
17:20.11 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/adrt/libutil/ (7 files): merge in the updated libutil stuff (introduces capability duplication for now, but no symbol conflicts)
17:25.35 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/adrt/libutil/ (6 files): decorate the new sources
17:25.40 brlcad fast enough? sure, all dm does is create the context and give hooks for a doing display updates -- doesn't get much lower overhead
17:26.03 brlcad libfb is the one that does buffer processing and has a communications overhead for remote displays
17:26.56 brlcad dm does the wireframe display in mged, not the raytrace windows
17:39.04 CIA-28 BRL-CAD: 03erikgreenwald * 10brlcad/src/adrt/libutil/Makefile.am: rename libutil to libtieutil, to avoid any possible confusion
18:12.03 ``Erik oh, I started seeing the Entries.backup issue recently
18:12.23 prasad_ is it snowing there?
18:12.45 ``Erik always with the custom ssh ... never the sf friendly one
