hi fabio t,

it's not python that's conficting, it's some libs in the bluetooth pet........ i haven't got bluetooth so can't test...

here's a pet to try, uninstall the old one first http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19554672/bluetooth-0.5_test_fix.pet

it removes some libs that conflict with mypaint, but the whole .pet could do with updating. if bluetooth still works with the test pet, i'll try and update the whole thing.

[Fabio T]

Thank you very much 666philb,

I've downloaded your .pet and try a few test to try different configuration of Precise with Mypaint.

There are several suprises!

In fact your package don't prevent Mypaint to work, but Mypaint don't work for me because don't find his icons...

Tomorrow I'll tell you the test on Precise and results, stange results!

What are files and libraries different between Your file and the original? In this differences are the answers to my install problems.

[Fabio T]

Ok, I'm back.

Description of strange abearance of PC & mypaint & bluetooth:

Restart Precise from scratch.

Reboot Precise pfix=ram.
Setup language and create a new precisesave.4fs
Reboot
In BootManager config bootup: load mypaint.1.1.0.sfs
Reboot.
Launch in terminal window (rxvt) : mypaint (enter)
Mypaint don't launch and complains that cannot find his icons.

Install Bluetooth.0.5.fix.pet (my file).
Launch in terminal window (rxvt) : mypaint (enter)
Mypaint don't launch and complains several Python errors.

But Bluetooth icon appears in the status bottom bar.

Uninstall Bluetooth 0.5.
Reboot.
Launch in terminal window (rxvt) : mypaint (enter)
Mypaint WORKS! Icons founded!

But Bluetooth don't works.

Now I Install Bluetooth.0.5.test.fix.pet (your file)
Reboot
Bluetooth WORKS and MYPAINT WORKS!

Bluetooth icon appears in the status bottom bar.

Now I decide to try your file:

Restart from scratch.
Reboot Precise from Ram.
Setup language and create a new precisesave_1.4fs
Reboot.
In BootManager config bootup: load mypaint.1.1.0.sfs
Reboot.
Launch in terminal window (rxvt) : mypaint (enter)
Mypaint don't launch and complains that cannot find his icons.

Install Bluetooth.0.5.test.fix.pet (your file).
Launch in terminal window (rxvt) : mypaint (enter)
Mypaint don't launch and complains that cannot find his icons (NO MORE PYTHON ERRORS!)
And Bluetooth mouse works.

But Bluetooth icon don't appear in the status bottom bar; There is instead a white icon with a red cross inside.

It seems that bluetooth 0.5 (my file) sets correctly icon directory or path to icon directory.

What difference there is from two version of bluetooth.0.5 mine and yours?

Thank you for help.

hi fabio t

the only difference is i removed two libs from my .pet 'libxcb-xlib.so.0.0.0' and 'libxcb.so.1.1.0' the tashbar icon shouldn't be affected .... did you try rebooting?

as i said there are more libs in the bluetooth pet that conflict with and overwrite precises own libs. i'll try and post a precise version of the bluetooth pet for you to test this week sometime.

cheers

After several tries I've found problem core.

It's bad indexed icon cache.

Initially I followed instructions in site https://gna.org/bugs/?18460.

But file 'icon-theme.cache' isn't in /usr/local/share/icons/hicolor but is in /usr/share/icons/hicolor !

Then it's only sufficient to modify and launch this command from command line:

gtk-update-icon-cache -tf /usr/share/icons/hicolor

It reindexs mypaint icons (and bluetooth icon that reappears after restart X)

After this command mypaint 1.1.0 works correctly.

If you can create a precise bluetooth adapted file I thank you very much.

sfs loaded in my graphics suitcase
Mypaint is part of he brand new Vincent van Puppy (2016) released for our artists using Puppy
Based on upup Raring.

Where is this machin ??? Pfind ne trouve pas.

In the above: "machin" is French for "thingy".

[don570]

[Pelo]

don 570, that would meant that Mypaint dowloaded from PPM will not work.
I keep van pup because MyPaint intalls well, i did'nt check deeper, because i'm learning how to use it.
Quickpet in upup Raring does not load MyPaint, but drives you to this topic... strange. Perhaps they didn't succeed in compiling... did they ?

[Pelo]

is MyPaint worth the candle ? (Google). Don 570 tested it
"Good News!!
MyPaint 1.1 SFS works in Puplette and ToOpPy. " French forum will enjoy these news.

Merci gjuhasz
yes yess yes all included. merci for that pet.. ah i must resize my pupsave..
I am interested a lot in discussing how to use theses graphics tools.So i am glad to meet a user as you.
Mypaint was the main interest of Van pup, the artist Puppy. I did a quick check of it
I have now a hundred of pictures taken during a Carnival for the city Newspaper. I will test Mypaint deeper.
installation postponed.... (precise 5.7.1)
MyPaint is not a Photo editor it's a painter. (tested with Vanpup) . So it's not really my hobby..
mypaint-1.1.0_sfs4.sfs: 51 M OK, See above Topic

Hi All,

Note to self: Do not read pelo's posts first thing in the morning. Pelo has the annoying habit of "not letting sleeping dogs lie", which peeks my curiosity, compels me to try Pups and applications I wouldn't have known about; and screws up my plans for the day.

Installed gjuhasz's MyPaint-1.1.1p in Tahrpup 6.0.5. It opens and appears to be functional. MyPaint appears to be a graphics application well worth mastering as it provides tools I think are otherwise not available. Before working my way through the guides and tutorials, I decided to open MyPaint from the console to see if there were any problems.

Opening via the terminal generated the following information. I didn't have a drawing tablet attached, so would guess that explains

"Looking for GTK devices with pressure:

No pressure sensitive devices found.
device change: Core Pointer <enum GDK_SOURCE_MOUSE of type GdkInputSource>"

But is anything (else) a cause for concern? And, if so, can it be fixed?

Rendez vous here There are simulteanous topics about My Paint. Topic linked has fourteen pages, perhaps we should join their team.
I am really happy to meet people interested in editing pictures. Nice !
