palto42 added a comment to D13921: Include nextcloud-nemo extension.

Hi @EbonJaeger , I have no objections to split the package, but it's not fully clear to me if you suggest to just split the extension for nemo or all (nautilus, nemo and caja).
The current package also contains the extension for caja, only dolphin has it's own sub-package nextcloud-client-dolphin-integration (but this contains more than one Python script).

palto42 added a comment to T9939: Update tlp to 1.5.0.

Hi @stalebrim , I still believe that the maintainers of TLP would not enable it by default if such issues are frequent.
They document that it may cause issues to help the few users facing problems, it doesn't mean that this is a frequent issue.
On the other hand Solus has no means to properly document that the package provided deviates from the TLP defaults.

palto42 added a comment to T9939: Update tlp to 1.5.0.

My main concern is that those non-default settings are quite old and quite likely not valid anymore, at least on most platforms.
I assume that the TLP maintainers provide a good selection of default setting, working for vast majority of users. If any of those options frequently causes issues, it should be raised on upstream to get it changed.
One big issue with modifying the defaults provided by upstream is that this is not documented anywhere and for me as a user it was a bit surprising and most changes unwanted.
TLP provides good documentation, helping the user to fix potential issues like with WiFi if they get affected. But just because some (few) have been affected long back doesn't justify to change it for all.

palto42 added a comment to T9939: Update tlp to 1.5.0.

I've built tlp 1.5.0 locally and it works fine, but I have some concerns with the current patch for the tlp.conf file which changes a couple of default settings.
My impression is that those non-default values have been carried over from the old versions for quite a while and may not be adequate anymore. I checked the tlp package on Ubuntu and found that they deliver the plain default config, so what is the rationale to change them in Solus?
Some of them might be good for certain environments, but I doubt that they provide improvements or are needed in general. I'm currently testing with all default except the CPU governor for which I use custom values (defaults would be ok as well, but Solus setting is not optimal for me).

I will try latest calibre and see if it's a good alternative, but GCstar is used for all kind of collections, so other users may be interested in the non-book collection management.

palto42 requested review of D11900: Update to 3.3.4 and fix VFS.

Hi @JoshStrobl,
I had to change the pattern of the dolphin-integration to ensure that the VFS plugins /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/nextcloudsync_vfs_suffix.so and /usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/nextcloudsync_vfs_xattr.so are packaged with the main nextcloud-client. I tried some other wildcard match to only include *dolphin*, but it didn't work and I though it's not really worth the effort for just 2 files.
Please suggest a suitable wildcard if you still think that the explicit statements aren't suitable.

I tested with a few different PDF documents, but for the tests above I used the RaspberryPi magazine which you can download for free: https://magpi.raspberrypi.org/issues/99
What still puzzles me is the randomness of the failures. Each crash seems a bit different and not exactly reproducible. Especially the conversion test with pdftocairo creates each run a slightly different crash at a different page. For Evince it's anyway harder to try an exact reproduction of the crash, but I have the impression that it's also a bit random when/where it happens.

Errors differ between crashes, e.g. double free or corruption (out) or corrupted size vs. prev_size (same as before libcairo patch).
