 emily | check debian/fedora/arch for distro patches | 21:45:31 |
| emily | oh this is some awful non-free printer blob | 21:45:38 |
| emily | n/m do whatever you want :p | 21:45:41 |
 Pouya Abbassi | K900: I'm getting new errors like
warning: ignoring return value of 'read' declared with attribute 'warn_unused_result'
Isn't there a way to suppress them all, or at least tell gcc to NOT treat warnings as errors for this package?
| 22:00:47 |
 K900 | It should not do that by default | 22:01:01 |
| K900 | So presumably it's hitting some warnings that are being treated as errors | 22:01:15 |
| emily | you want to search for "error:" | 22:18:38 |
| emily | have you considered using Internet Printing Protocol or whatever it is btw? | 22:19:19 |
| emily | these ancient proprietary drivers are just going to bitrot more and more over time | 22:19:40 |
| Pouya Abbassi |
have you considered using Internet Printing Protocol or whatever it is btw?
printer does not have wifi and is connected directly to my laptop.
I guess I'll just remove the driver and use my windows pc to print stuff :|

| emily | you can just set -Wno-error | 22:35:57 |
| emily | for the errors that appear | 22:35:58 |
| emily | (again search error: in the compile log) | 22:36:03 |
| emily | ideally send a PR | 22:36:13 |
| Pouya Abbassi |
you can just set -Wno-error
how do I set this?
I fixed two issues. Now I'm getting the third one and I'm not a C programmer so they're a bit cryptic.
getipc.c:62:72: error: passing argument 3 of 'accept' from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
62 | while( (client_fd = accept(server_fd, (struct sockaddr *)&sun, &len)) >= 0 )
| ^~~~
| 22:39:24 |
| emily | -Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types | 22:39:42 |
| emily | it's not really worth patching because it's an unfree source dump that will never be updated | 22:40:00 |
| emily | just env.NIX_CFLAGS_COMPILE = "-Wno-error=a -Wno-error=b …"; until it compiles | 22:40:12 |
| Pouya Abbassi | Thanks.
I found a file in the project that has CFLAGS definition. I have added -Wno-error to it 🤞
I would add yet another patch to the patches that are availabele in the nixpkgs for this package. That should help others. If I can fix it at all. | 22:43:01 |

| emily | Colin: guessing you use the libcap tools, so might want to participate in the discussion re: your PR in https://matrix.to/#/!UNVBThoJtlIiVwiDjU:nixos.org/$QjE6OLK38mYL4jjoy0IlAqolVHJmHoGHOYh5oIrFkNk?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=tchncs.de | 23:20:58 |

 matthewcroughan | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/370832 unbreaks qtox which has been broken for a long time, but the maintainers aren't responding and aren't in this channel | 09:11:00 |
| matthewcroughan | I'm thinking of merging it, any objections? | 09:11:08 |
| matthewcroughan | tox.chat appears to reference this "TokTok" fork now, so seems legit | 09:11:30 |
