Release Of EmergeActivity 3.0
It’s been a while since the last release of EmergeActivity. There were some fixes, but nothing really worth a release, so mostly everything was ok. Still, it was based on Qt4/PyQt4, and times passes, so I’ve finally found time to port EmergeActivity to Qt5. That and a few fixes/features seemed enough for me to increment the major number, hence […]

Release of EmergeActivity 2.1
Emerge activity is a small PyQt application aimed at Gentoo users that displays an “activity” graph of the emerges. Here’s a typical example on my desktop computer : For those wondering, the huge increase in 2009 is when the Gentoo KDE team decided to split KDE packages, and the drop in 2011 is when I stopped […]

EmergeActivity gets a graphical interface: releasing 2.0
I’m still using this small utility that displays the activity of ’emerges’ on the misc gentoo boxes I’m admin for.

Activities gallery
While developing my recently released activity mercurial extension (and here too), I did a lot of tests on some quite famous/big projects. I’ve found the results to be quite interesting and decided to put up this gallery. Are you interested in the history of commits for kde, linux, django, portage(software), and others? warning : this […]

Konqueror web shortcut for gentoo packages
You’re going to think that I’m some kind of web shortcut maniac, but I really think I’m not. I’m using http://packages.larrythecow.org a lot, and only today did I think about creating a konqueror web shortcut to get there faster. I’ve called it ‘gt’ (for gentoo, yes, i’m that lazy), and the magic url thinguy is […]
