I've made several changes to the Weblate Docker container which are worth mentioning today. First of all if you are still using nijel/weblate, you should switch to weblate/weblate. They both currently share same configuration, but it might happen ... [More] that some future updates will go to the weblate owned container only. Now back to the container changes. Since beginning we were using Django built in server. That's fine for development purposes, but it really doesn't work that well in production as it can handle only one request at time. Therefore we've switched to more robust approach using nginx + uwsgi + supervisor. Thanks to this, the docker-compose no longer needs separate nginx server as everything is now sanely handled within the weblate container itself.

After fours years, I will again make it to DebConf, I'm looking forward to meet many great people, so if you want to meet and happen to be in Montreal next week come and say hello to me :-). It seems I've settled down on four year schedule - I've ... [More] attended DebConf09 and DebConf13 so far. Let's see if next one will come in 2021 or earlier.

It has been few months since I'm providing Windows binaries for Gammu, but other parts of the family were still missing. Today, I'm adding python-gammu. Unlike previous attempts which used crosscompilation on Linux using Wine, this is also based on ... [More] AppVeyor. Still I don't have to touch Windows to do that, what is nice :-). This has been introducted in python-gammu 2.9 and depend on Gammu 1.38.4. What is good on this is that pip install python-gammu should now work with binary packages if you're using Python 3.5 or 3.6. Maybe I'll find time to look at option providing Wammu as well, but it's more tricky there as it doesn't support Python 3, while the python-gammu for Windows can currently only be built for Python 3.5 and 3.6 (due to MSVC dependencies of older Python versions).

During last weeks I was finally able to push out some releases of Gammu and related tools. Those were mostly waiting for quite some time in Git, but still will be useful for many users. Gammu 1.38.3 brings several SMSD performance improvements (I'd ... [More] like to hear feedback here how much it helped in real world workloads), fixes USSD related crashes and adds support for new devices. python-gammu 2.8 finally brings emoji fixes to Python users as well. Those were fixed in Gammu quite some time ago, but the Python API still didn't handle them properly. There was also simplification in the calls API. Wammu release will follow shortly in next days, the most important change there being license change to GPLv3 or later. Filed under: Debian English Gammu python-gammu Wammu [Less]
