Some news from the MLED front

kikinovak · 12-08-2016, 11:06 AM

Hi,

I've been very busy since sunday morning, and I've spent long hours every day working on MLED 14.1. At the moment, I'm concentrating on this version, since this is the one most of my clients are running. I try to follow the one-dragon-at-a-time rule, so I'll only start work on 14.2 once 14.1 is OK.

So what's this about? First of all, don't expect any dramatic changes like switching to a new desktop environment. Even though I pondered it for a few days, discussing the matter convinced me that this isn't a good idea. Plus, Xfce really works great on all my machines, and my clients like it a lot.

So right now I'm working on all the little details like cleaning up the build scripts and the automatic build infrastructure. To get a vague idea, this is like trying to solve a Tangram puzzle with 250 pieces. Take a peek at this file to get a vague idea:

https://github.com/kikinovak/microli...ce/build_order

So far, more than 30 components of MLED 14.1 have been updated, though these are all on my local machine for the moment, and every single package has been properly rebuilt. If things go as planned, I'll upload the whole batch over the weekend, along with some instructions.

If you wonder about my radio silence, it's only because I'm very busy under the hood. (I also have the flu, so right now I'm doing my best not to sneeze on the keyboard, but it doesn't get too much in the way of work.)

Cheers,

Niki

Huge upload in progress. This is probably the longest ChangeLog entry I've ever written.

	Brace yourselves, winter is coming. Here's a long-needed overhaul for MLED.
	14.1. No dramatic changes, but a myriad of incremental improvements, mostly
	under the hood. 
	All the build scripts have been cleaned up and checked, as well as the
	automatic build environment. Package groups are now built in a coherent
	order. Cleaning this up sometimes felt like trying to solve a Tangram puzzle
	with a few hundred pieces. The result is a clean and easily maintainable
	system, where everything just works. All the packages have been rebuilt, and
	more than forty have been upgraded, with a special focus on a complete and
	coherent multimedia stack. 
	This update introduces the [gnome] package group for all the GNOME-specific
	libraries and applications. 
	A few words on packages that were removed. The Shotwell photo manager has
	been a huge disappointment, what with its highly idiosyncratic and
	counter-intuitive behavior. SMPlayer has also been removed, since VLC now
	works perfectly, and there's still the beefed-up no-GUI version of MPlayer
	under the hood. 
	Some applications from the [extras] repository have been merged into the main
	section. 
	We're now officially using the Infinality patchset with its nice font
	rendering. 
	Don't worry if a handful of LibreOffice icons have disappeared from the dock
	after the update. You can add them again with a simple drag-and-drop.
	Here's how you can perform this massive update:
	
		# init 3
		# slackpkg update
		# slackpkg upgrade-all
		# slackpkg install microlinux-desktop
		# slackpkg clean-system   --> uncomment those packages you want to keep
		# init 4

	You might want to refresh your custom menu entries after the update.
+--------------------------+

Phew.

Nice, can't wait until 14.2 is updated. I'll be updating my PC by installing a second hard drive to use for my home partition so will be reinstalling.

Hi,

Looks like the update will be available in the course of the weekend. I'll keep you posted.

Cheers,

Niki

Hello Niki,

I upgraded to the latest massive batch of updates for 14.2 64bit.

Everything went fine and indeed font display looks crispier/clearer.

Thanks for the huge work.

You're welcome. Infinality is nice indeed. This last batch was the last major bump. From here on, you can expect smooth sailing with MLED 14.1 and 14.2.

Cheers,

Niki
