| 09:08:14 | <Solid> | liskin: is haskell-ci-hackage.patch actually supposed to apply after running `haskell-ci regenerate`? |
| 09:08:51 | <Solid> | because the latter doesn't generate workflows for all GHC versions for me (e.g. nothing for 9.2.1) |
| 09:10:45 | → | bfrk joins (~Thunderbi@i59F7ABAC.versanet.de) |
| 09:11:54 | <liskin> | Solid: yes it's meant to be applied when you run that, but you need to use a recent enough version of haskell-ci to get all ghc versions |
| 09:12:04 | <Solid> | oh I see |
| 09:12:22 | <liskin> | (I'm on vacation till next Sunday so can't really help much except for toilet ircing) |

| 17:46:49 | <jimr> | anyone here? |
| 17:47:03 | → | liskin[m] joins (~liskinmat@2001:470:69fc:105::768) |
| 17:47:05 | <geekosaur> | yes |
| 17:47:34 | <jimr> | are you familiar with the border patch for dmenu |
| 17:48:06 | <geekosaur> | no, sorry |
| 17:48:32 | <jimr> | im trying to reduce the thickness of the border i got it to make install with no issues..just doesnt change lol |
| 17:48:37 | <jimr> | ok no worries |
| 17:52:21 | <geekosaur> | looks like the patch uses the same border xmonad does, so you'll need to set/change the border within xmonad |
| 17:52:33 | <jimr> | k |
| 17:54:03 | <jimr> | no thats not it.. |
| 17:54:35 | <jimr> | i had the border in xmonad set..the border im trying whittle down is way thicker than 2 pixels lo |
| 17:55:56 | <geekosaur> | hm, the patch I'm looking at uses the window's border_width |
| 17:56:44 | <jimr> | the error i get is that border_width is defined but not used |
| 17:58:13 | <geekosaur> | did you apply the whole patch? there are two hunks: one to config.def.h that defines the border width, and one to dmenu.c that uses it |
| 18:01:40 | <jimr> | ok looking in dmenu.c now |
| 18:09:40 | <geekosaur> | should be around line 657 |
| 18:09:51 | <geekosaur> | XCreateWindow |
| 18:11:06 | <geekosaur> | if you see an 0 at the end of that line, change it to border_width |
| 18:17:33 | <jimr> | you mean in the create menu window section? |
| 18:17:44 | <geekosaur> | yes |
| 18:18:02 | <geekosaur> | win = XCreateWindow(dpy, parentwin, x, y, mw, mh, border_width, |
| 18:18:20 | <geekosaur> | unpatched will have 0 in place of border_width |
| 18:18:36 | <jimr> | yep...no numbrs |
| 18:19:09 | <jimr> | looking up something at the moment |
| 18:19:24 | <geekosaur> | and I missed that the window has the override_redirect flag set, so xmonad can't affect it |

| 18:45:22 | <jimr> | ok |
| 18:45:36 | <jimr> | think ill have to email the author of the patch |
| 18:45:54 | <geekosaur> | do you have any other patches applied? |
| 18:46:14 | <jimr> | morecolor center and highlight |
| 18:46:27 | <geekosaur> | I could imagine one that added another source file reporting that warning (then -Werror) if it's not used in that file |
| 18:46:38 | <geekosaur> | but those don't sound like they should add files |
| 18:47:21 | <geekosaur> | flip side, make sure what you are seeing is actually an error and not simply a warning |
| 18:47:34 | <jimr> | yea i got make install to run with no errors..just not changing |
| 18:47:55 | <geekosaur> | make sure you don;t have a different dmenu somewhere else |
| 18:48:22 | × | Czernobog quits (~Czernobog@user/czernobog) (Quit: ZNC 1.8.2 - https://znc.in) |
| 18:48:30 | <geekosaur> | if you initially installed it from an OS repo then it'll be in /usr/bin/dmenu, but by default make install usually gores to /usr/local/bin |
| 18:48:37 | <geekosaur> | *goes |
| 18:49:46 | <geekosaur> | (also OS package managers dislike it when something else writes over what they installed) |
| 18:50:09 | <jimr> | k i originally installed it via pacman |
| 18:50:21 | <jimr> | then i downloaded the source code from suckless |
| 18:52:07 | <geekosaur> | find $(IFS=': '; echo $PATH) -name dmenu |

| 18:53:33 | <jimr> | yea user/bin/dmenu and usr/local/bin/dmenu |
| 18:53:58 | <geekosaur> | ok, so remove the one installed via pacman since you're using your own install now |
| 18:54:27 | <jimr> | k sudo pacman -Rns dmenu right? |

| 19:02:58 | <geekosaur> | I don't know Arch; I'm on ubuntu which uses apt |
| 19:03:54 | <geekosaur> | main problem likely to happen is now xmonad can't find dmenu becuase X121 startup doesn't use your PATH setting but is hardcoded to /bin:/usr/bin. you'll need a wrapper or an extra setting in main to work around that, if it happens |
| 19:04:13 | <jimr> | k |
| 19:05:38 | <geekosaur> | also you shouldn't need to restart your session for most of this |
| 19:05:59 | <geekosaur> | even if we need to add a PATH setting to main, mod-q should be enoough |
| 19:08:05 | <jimr> | for once its make install with no errors or warnings... |
| 19:08:42 | <geekosaur> | shouldn't need to repeat that either, I'd think |
| 19:09:05 | <geekosaur> | it's already installed, you've just not been running the installed one but the one from the package manager |
| 19:13:23 | <geekosaur> | if it's now coming up as "not installed" then you need to fix your $PATH |

| 19:21:04 | <jimr> | yes finally got it.. |
| 19:22:33 | <jimr> | done something i should have done earlier...looked at the dmenu-border4.9.diff and it told me what to replace.. |
| 19:23:21 | <jimr> | helps if you look at the patch file lol |
| 19:25:15 | <jimr> | thanks for the help |
| 19:25:28 | <geekosaur> | np |
| 19:25:33 | <jimr> | i didnt even think of deleting the on from pacman |
| 19:26:28 | <MrElendig> | I would make my own pacman package instead of sudo make install |
| 19:26:42 | <MrElendig> | the later will break in all kinds of fun ways |
| 19:27:47 | <jimr> | im still relatively a noob when it comes to linux...sometimes going into configs scare me a little...but i do read up..and really only ask for help if i cant get it |
| 19:28:50 | <MrElendig> | adding a patch to a PKGBUILD is much easier than building by hand |
| 19:29:09 | <jimr> | k |
| 19:29:33 | <MrElendig> | also avoid the whole problem of you not remembering how/what you did in 3 months when you have to rebuild it |
| 19:29:46 | <jimr> | lol |
| 19:30:01 | <jimr> | yea going to back up my .config files... |
| 19:30:29 | <jimr> | and write down what i did where i did it and why i did it |
