Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ansel-A: Digital Darkroom for the N900

To get this to extras you need to change the bugtracker url to, for example,

Code:

https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=anselA

and the description in the control file should be something like this:

Code:

Description: Digital Darkroom for the N900.

 Supporting B&W Conversion, Color Correction, 

 Precision Rotation, Photo Browsing, 

 Level Adjustments and Simple Filters. 

 Pronounced 'Ansel, A'.

Short and long descriptions are then generated properly.

This is unfortunately a known bug, Haven't quite figured out the math transposition between the thumbnail and the rotated portrait (90CW 90CCW) images. Thanks for spotting it. ( I was hopping it would slip by for at least the weekend. :)

Also, when you undo the cropping and revert to the original image, and you try to crop again, you find that the cropping window remembers the previous cropping attempt, and can't be reset to the full image.

Undo has some strange issues with crop/rotate where the thumbnail isn't correctly updated before or afterwards. It'll also cause a miscount in your undo steps so that instead of going back to the selected undo point it ends up at your current point with the intermediary steps deleted. The thumbnail seems to be able to directly access the current image and not the thumbnail copy. (which it shouldn't be able to do, nor is that the intent). I'll have to look deeper into python.Imaging/CImg to see it during Crop or Rotate the actual image is manipulated and not a copy/deepcopy of the image.

When my head programmer gets in tomorrow I'll ask him, err... that's me, I'm looking into it. ;)

I know NOW why they call it Extras-TESTING, It's been 3 hours and the community has found, confirmed and reported back more bugs then I'd stumbled across in a week.

This is so beneficial, who am kidding? This is freaking awesome! Thanks so much guys.

Just an open question, since it's headed on 4am here in NJ, at what point do the amount of bug/issues make someone retract a release? (I'm not going to, I think honestly it works sort of well) or do I carry on as I have in -devel and fix-release++? and try to get a new version into -testing as fast as possible and vote down this one?

There is no intent at all of getting this version into Extras, I just needed to get out of -devel and have some fresh eyes see the issues.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Ansel-A: Digital Darkroom for the N900

Well done!

What a great app - easy to use and very polished you should be proud of yourself.

Especially as an initial release.

Is it also possible to run this on a "normal" desktop computer?

oops, my bad, I deleted my version and left the commented version, strangely enough the button that links to it in my code is correct.

As far as the description, I have that. but It seems I have it wrong. it populates the incorrect field when you install. I just need to look at someone else's files to get the right text, I've based mine off of the py2deb examples.

Also for the past 8 releases, I've been constantly editing the changeloginformation with each release but I never see it in control file

I do on my machine, but the deb won't install due to specific maemo5 depends. but there's nothing funny here, as long as you have >PyQt4.6 and >Python2.5 and Python-Image you should be set and can run from /src.

I think the program itself seems stable enough though. You can promote stuff to extras with know bugs as long as they are minor and don't crash the application. For difficult bugs you can disable the feature if there is no quick workaround (mention this in description). That way the N900 gets a great app, and you can then take the time to work out the rest of the bugs, and then post an update.

the description in the source of 0.9-1 is all on one line, so that must have gone wrong. you can edit the control file directly, the lines after the first description line need a space in the beginning, like my example.

I usually do
dch -i
to increment version and add changelog entry. And that does not and should not do anything to the control file. Only changelog.

to create the files for extras i do a
dpkg-buildpackage -sn -S

(I don't know how you build your packages, just thought I'd mention how I do mine, in case it helps)
