MX-23 Repository - the Ario thread

Ario 1.6+svn20202703 is now available in the Main MX-23 Repository. Four years ago the Ario developer fixed an annoying gui resizing/oversizing bug present in the Debian buster version. It would expand the windows & internal panes to fit whatever content was in them even if that made the applica...

Re: Sound-juicer fails.

Sound Juicer works fine for me. It can take 30 seconds or so sometimes to contact Musicbrainz to get the track listings. I prefer Asunder. It allows quality selection (for lossy formats like mp3 ogg aac) or compression level settings (for lossless formats) for the output files. Sound Juicer does not...

Re: Package manager aborts installation with: "cannot read /var/lib/dpkg/info/libcurses-ui-perl.list"

I rarely use LiveUSB sessions, but if none of those files you listed have any content then the problem isn't what I thought. These symptoms look like a root persistence issue where the persistence file overlay lists those files but has somehow lost all the contents in /var/lib/dpkg/ so it blocks the...

Re: Package manager aborts installation with: "cannot read /var/lib/dpkg/info/libcurses-ui-perl.list"

Because libcurses-ui-perl is a dependency of sysvinit and should be installed by default, I would try sudo apt-get install libcurses-ui-perl -d --reinstall The -d --reinstall parameters to apt-get will make sure it downloads it again instead of trying to find it in the cache to ensure the corrupt fi...

Re: Observation: MX-23.2_x64 vs MX-23.2_x64_ahs (Arduino-IDE issue: Java?)

There are no java packages in the ahs repo. Sounds like a permissions problem to me. Are the files you want to edit on your home partition or are you trying to edit files located on your MX-23 partition from your MX-23 ahs install?

Re: xz-utils vulnerability - MX23 seems to have dodged that bullet?

That's actually part of the debian rules - a necessary rollback needs a higher version so it will update but with +really<version> to indicate this has been done. I've had to label packages that way a couple times over the years.

Re: Viewer for .avif images (SOLVED)

You built qt-heif-image-plugin for MX-17 and I updated it for MX-21 & MX-23. It's in Main. Nomacs in MX already depends on it.
Updating it to the latest version doesn't fix the AVIF alpha-limited problem. Guess I need to look at libavif16...

Could you please point me to that as I've not seen it anywhere?
