<asimovc>likyle i said
<asimovc>sometimes i made a pr in community
<riteo>I don't think that the maintainer model is being enforced anymore, is it?
<sewn>it is
<asimovc>weeks and a have to call people here more than one time to be listened
<sewn>kiss has a BDFL
<sewn>kiss-community doesnt
<sewn>and doesnt have a set of people who are actively scouring for maintainership
<sewn>the bare minimum (update packages) is what is being done atm
<asimovc>the BDFL of kiss even see the prs, some are fixed and still opened
<sewn>asimovc: give me an example
<sewn>a kiss-community bug, with a PR that was opened to fix it
<sewn>if its true i will be very dissapointed
<sewn>i dont blame kiss-community, because the actual maintainers, people with commit permission, have lives
<asimovc>kiss repo is just updating stuff and fix big issues
<riteo>sewn: regarding the maintainer model, I mean that one can make a PR for "somebody else's" package
<sewn>asimovc: thats what i just said
<sewn>riteo: ahh
<sewn>i mean
<riteo>like, the maintainer model forbit making PRs and shit
<sewn>dependso n the maintainer
<riteo>oh I see
<sewn>if your name is ioraff, hard no
<sewn>but for the rest i believe you can make bug fixes and they get approved, like ones i made on kiss-xorg
<asimovc>sewn: i give the example. busybox haved a bug for more than months and alpine solved it. That's what i'm saying, maybe still need more patching for better performance and not breaking things but repos is just update stuff and fix big problems
<asimovc>the bdfl or community members just needed to look at alpines patches and patch busybox
<asimovc>this is the point the quality of kiss
<asimovc>kiss is just abandoned in quality
<asimovc>no one cares if is buggy as long is builded and "working"
<sewn>links please?
<asimovc>you can see my pr in community repo
<asimovc>i'm not with browser now lol
<asimovc>other example
<asimovc>someone just builded firefox in some condition and thinked "good work" and now i can't build as expected and need to find some solution
<phinxy>Whats your github/codeberg handle?
<asimovc>sewm: https://codeberg.org/kiss-community/repo/pulls/182
<asimovc>as you can see this pr i made was 8 months ago
<asimovc>the fix in alpine is due to jan 2023
<asimovc>one year for just look in alpines busybox package and get the patch
<midfavila>sad_plan yeah i paid for arpa ages ago, when i was still in high school. 100% worth it imho
<midfavila>also i fucking hate the default image for the uconsole aaaa it's literally the WORST
<ivyfri12_>lmao i just got sd card for pmos on nokia n900
<ivyfri12_>i love my "linux phone at home"
<midfavila>nice
<midfavila>im *this* friggin close to being able to drop my android for the uconsole running kiss but i just can't get it self-hosting
<midfavila>that and clockworkpi doesn't seem to provide the tools/kernel source/etc that they used for the r01 atm in violation of the gpl so that sucks
<ivyfri12_>uconsole running kiss sound awesome
<ivyfri12_>im into sliders tho
<midfavila>sliders are neat
<midfavila>my main goal rn is to cut out proprietary hardware to the extent possible hence the uconsole
