Gajim - 2025-04-02

Our organization uses Windows, and recently you have been unable to successfully compile Gajim on Windows. Is there anyone who can help with this? ✏

Our organization uses Windows, and recently we have been unable to successfully compile Gajim on Windows. Is there anyone who can help with this? ✏

Compile? We provide installers

we changed the code a little and produce the internal installers. Change ICON. Very small changes. ✏

https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/blob/master/win/README.md We do after this. But it does not work now.

I see. Currently there is a problem building nightlies. Some dependencies are not satisfied. We're working on that

zhangede, can i ask why you want to rebuild Gajim?

are you trying to build the newest released version? Or are you trying to stay on 1.9.5 and apply more changes

because the newest version of Gajim is not released for windows for a reason, there are problems with emojis, no status icon, in general probably a downgrade for your users

lovetox pushed 1 commits to branch gajim/master ci: Windows: Switch depcheck to GIRepository 3.0 - https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/commit/8d32a4eecc1063c751de75e4236b6c8ff4f874cd

Hi! When clicking on avatars, Gajim started crashing. I never had this problem before. Kubuntu 22.04 LTS. Please help! Gajim 2.0.4 (Unix/Linux) GTK version: 4.16.12 GLib version: 2.82.4 Pango version: 1.54.0 PyGObject version: 3.50.0 Version cairo: 1.18.2 Version pycairo: 1.27.0 Version python-nbxmpp: 6.0.2 Version of libsoup: 3.6.4

Observer, clicking avatars where? And "crashing" does produce an error popup?

well recently I had gajim crashing when trying to use an emoji. I think it was 2.0.4 but it did not do it the last time.

it crashed twice and then when I tried later it worked.

I just tried it and it crashed

flatpak 2.0.4

Observer, ah, so not avatars, but emojis

thats an emoji, not a avatar

see https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/issues/12244

> Observer, ah, so not avatars, but emojis Yeah, I'm sorry, my mistake. ↺

To solve this, we'd need a specific log (see issue comment)

> see https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/issues/12244 Thank you, but that doesn't answer the question. ↺

Observer, lovetox just made a comment on that issue. We need a specific log to solve this issue. I can't reproduce it on my machine

> Observer, lovetox just made a comment on that issue. We need a specific log to solve this issue. I can't reproduce it on my machine Yeah, I got it, but I don't know where the magazine is. ↺

Nevermind, I can reproduce it. Let me check

I'm looking for the Gajim magazine

Observer, by "Issue" I meant the issue I linked in our issue tracker ;)

> Observer, by "Issue" I meant the issue I linked in our issue tracker ;) Sorry, I'm a regular user and for a lot of obscure things. ↺

It only crashes for some users, and we're working on a fix

> are you trying to build the newest released version? Or are you trying to stay on 1.9.5 and apply more changes we use gajim as our internal chating-program. Some small features should be done. For example changing contact phone, change icon... ↺

> are you trying to build the newest released version? Or are you trying to stay on 1.9.5 and apply more changes should I stay on Tag 1.9.5 and do our changes? Every version from 2.0.0 is not for Windows? ✏ ↺

> It only crashes for some users, and we're working on a fix I found a catalog /var/lib/flatpak/app/org.gajim.Gajim/ But I didn't find the magazine in it. ↺

zhangede, currently on 2.0.0 emojis do not work, and there is no status icon

if your users can live with that, feel free to switch to 2.0

we are working on fixing this, but we will release only if its fixed, because we think its important for chatting

is there any issue for emojis not working on win

havent found anything on the gajim issue tracker

> if your users can live with that, feel free to switch to 2.0 with your last commit. My Build succeeds now. God! Now I transfer to tag 1.9.5 and do a try. ↺

you can try that yes

exchange in the depcheck.py file the ignore libs var which is now Gtk3.0 to Gtk4.0

> Nevermind, I can reproduce it. Let me check you can reproduce it now? ↺

> you can try that yes transfert to tag 1.9.5, then i should change a line in depcheck.py? ↺

yes ```diff -IGNORED_LIBS = [("Soup", "2.4"), ("Gtk", "3.0")] +IGNORED_LIBS = [("Soup", "2.4"), ("Gtk", "4.0")] ```

. ✏

maybe you can make a branch for windows? 😄️

you also need to apply this commit

zhangede, feel free to fork the project on our gitlab, and apply those changes, then you have your branch
