gmail.com has some XMPP SRV records, but does not itself respond to XMPP
traffic, although it does accept connections on port 5222. So if a user
entered the wrong password, it would try all the SRVs and fall back to
trying gmail, and hang at that point.
This seems the right thing to do, not just a workaround.
The icon files will be installed when running make install or cabal
install. Did not try to run update-icon-caches, since I think it's debian
specific, and dh_icons will take care of that for the Debian package.
Using the favicon as a 16x16 icon. At 24x24 the svg displays pretty well,
although the dotted lines are rather faint. The svg is ok at all higher
resolutions.
The standalone linux build auto-installs the desktop and autostart files
when run. I have not made it auto-install the icon file too, because
a) that would take more work to include them in the tarball and find them
b) it would need to be an install to ~/.icons/, and I don't know if that
really works!
The ssh setup first runs ssh to the real hostname, to probe if a ssh key is
needed. If one is, it generates a mangled hostname that uses a key. This
mangled hostname was being used to ssh into the server to set up the key.
But if the server already had the key set up, and it was locked down, the
setup would fail. This changes it to use the real hostname when sshing in
to set up the key, which avoids the problem.
Note that it will redundantly set up the key on the ssh server. But it's
the same key; the ssh key generation code uses the key if it already
exists.
maximum is partial, so need to ensure the list is not empty.
This lack of associated files would most likely be a problem -- and fsck
fixes it. It could also occur legitimately due to a race.
This is a compromise. I would like to nice every thread except for the
webapp thread, but it's not practical to do so. That would need every
thread to run as a bound thread, which could add significant overhead.
And any forkIO would escape the nice level.
I noticed that when my modem hung up and redialed, my xmpp client was left
sending messages into the void. This will also handle any idle
disconnection issues.
I hope this will be easier to reason about, and less buggy. It was
certianly easier to write!
An immediate benefit is that with a traversable queue of push requests to
select from, the threads can be a lot fairer about choosing which client to
service next.
This will avoid losing any messages received from 1 client when a push
involving another client is running.
Additionally, the handling of push initiation is improved,
it's no longer allowed to run multiples of the same type of push to
the same client.
Still stalls sometimes :(
