Gajim - 2024-01-31

How do I make Gajim display an Ad-Hoc command result? I attach a <note type="info"> element to a command with status="completed", but just get a "Completed" window. (And in Cheogram, a tab just opens and closes immediately). Am I doing something wrong or it's underimplemented?

Ah, got it, there's a problem with XML serialization which gives the element a wrong name.

To be on the safe side: I have been told that you can easily lock yourself out of your server with fail2ban if you are not familiar with the software. (which is true). Therefore, if you are testing this and have not used fail2ban before, please be careful. (make ignoreip entries). The tutorial is perhaps intended more for those who already use fail2ban anyway. thx @ moparisthebest

stefan: it's easy to lock yourself out even without fail2ban if you don't have some kind of KVM/VNC console as a fallback. By accidentally breaking SSH configuration, or network configuration. It's also a concern only for those having a static IP, which is extremely rare for home networks. It has always been pretty easy to me to just reboot a modem, and thus to never treat IP bans as an affective counterattack measure at all lol. I love to play whack-a-mole.

Hilariously though, I don't even know (or remember) the root passwords of some of my servers, so such consoles are useless there anyway.

can anyone here who is using wayland let me know if chat search will highlight messages when they are selected from the search results list? ✏

fjklp: yes, there's a highlight effect for a short period

I think that's how it was for me in the past but now there is nothing

Thanks for the feedback. I'm on gnome so it might be specific to gnome, or at least different for gnome

lovetox, do you need more information?

sch, which Gajim and libsoup version? Is it reproducible? Worked for me when I sent a custom XML message with the url of your image

sch: error 403 unauthorized

It is possible to view that image from Dino, Converse and monocles.

meson, please send a screenshot

sch: Here's the XML:

what the new standard and replacement for GTK StatusIcon

Gajim use gtk and have a very good implementation that works everywhere just curious to know what it use :)

Ichtyx: libappindicator

cal0pteryx: thx

Ichtyx: only on Linux. On windows there is no replacement

lovetox, thx no prob I don't care about blackbox os

> which Gajim and libsoup version? ( meson) https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libsoup/ libsoup 2.74.3 https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/gajim/ gajim 1.8.4

sch: I use libsoup 3.4.4

It is good to know that you have it working. I hope to see it soon in ArchLinux.

sch: you can install libsoup3 in Arch and see if Gajim uses it and the issue still appears

Gajim 1.6+ requires libsoup3

It does not work with libsoup2

https://gajim.org/post/2023-01-07-gajim-1.6.0-released/

meson, it is already installed: ``` # pacman -S libsoup3 warning: libsoup3-3.4.4-1 is up to date -- reinstalling ```

What could be the cause then? Could it be a user-agent which the server rejects?

the http error returned in your log is "forbidden"

this does not seem like Gajim error

the server for whatever reason does return that status code when requesting the URL

if you can conact the owner of the server you could ask them to look at the log and tell you why
