Gajim - 2024-10-30

does nbxmpp use gobject?

No

was it using gobject? I'm asking because I see it depends on python3-gobject in my distro

and it has gobject as dependency in pyproject.toml

Ok I misunderstood you, yes this library is necessary

How do I configure Gajim to show URL image previews in a chat? From what I can find, there's a URLImagePreview plugin, but I can't seem to find it.

Sorry - v1.9.5, on windows

there is no need, Gajim should display it

you can check preferences for options to display all urls

It doesn't though

as said you need to check the preferences

I've togggled that, and restarted, turnd it off, restarted, turned it back on restarted...

so what do you see?

Just a url

to a image?

Yes

If I click on the url it opens in a browser

does this load for you?

I just get a url, no image preview

check view -> debug console

for errors

Nothing informative, one error for "feature not implemented", another error that seems unrelated "recipient not in room"

just to be clear you activated this setting

Yes. I've tried turning it off, restarting, turning it back on, and restarting again, no change either way. Odd

I'm guessing it's something weird between Gajim and Windows, with how Windows handles defaults, but I can't find anything specific. It's the same on 2 machines, Windows 10. One is fairly new

then you need to enable debug logging, restart and send me the log

Seems I'm unable ot attach a file to this chat?

you can send it to my mail philipp@hoerist.com

Done. Thx.

it says TLS verification failed: ['The signing certificate authority is not known']

are you using maybe some kind of proxy on that machine?

seems the problem affects only some domains

seems your machine has no problem downloading stuff from gajim.org

Nope, no proxy anywhere

Oh that's interesting

Phone and other machines are on the same net, and don't have a problem. So odd

do you see this?

looks like an icon?

like the Gajim icon

yes its a picture on gajim.org

Yea, shows as the icon, not a url

yes thats what it looks like if it does not run into an error

meaning the preview works if it actually can download the data

and it seems it cannot for some domains on your machine, but can for others

Ok, so it's not Gajim or machine config. Thanks for helping clarify that at least!

Guess I'll have off topic go check the router, see if anything weird is going on.

its maybe kinda a machine config

it says the it cannot verify the cert

Happens on 2 machines, so muct be something on my network. Though it doesn't affect the phones or iPad

meaning maybe you dont have setup the root certs for specific providers

the link i posted earlier

does it open normal in your browser?

Ah, that could be too. I'll start digging. Yay

Yea, browser is fine.

hm though browser is often not a good test, as they ship their own certs sometimes

Previews just don't show in Gajim, so I thought I had a misconfig there, or something perhaps in windows default handlers, but image files open right

i dont think its something on the network, because then it wouldnt work in the browser

Yea, good point. I've got something not set right...sigh

lol

i would check the root cert store in windows, and try to look if you find the root cert for that provider where it does not work maybe

It's not crucial either, just annoying. I can live with it, but the wife and family aren't going to tolerate it. haha

Cool, I'll check. Thanks again.

in the case of the link i posted earlier

its GlobalSign Root CA - R3

Oh, thanks. That'll help
