When trying to build cef I get an exception about being unable to find leveldb's gyp file.

Building Desura uses 128 processes and brings my computer to a screeching halt, apparently it's due to the huge amount of IO being used.

The ones in the latest commits.

Python2 is named python2 and Python3 is named python on my system for example.

A script to fix cef's cef_create_projects.sh is at http://sprunge.us/XeXU , yet this problem persists in all scripts (such as in depot_tools) that use python directly.

A fix to this would be to call python by $PYTHON and have a script set the environmental variable before the scripts are run.

help?

When starting up desura on (some?) 64bit Linux systems using ext4 as filesystem, the hard drive is read excessively for a couple of minutes.
This behavior was first reported on the Desura forums (http://www.desura.com/groups/desura/forum/thread/desura-reads-hard-drive-excessively-on-start-up-on-64-bit-linux-system). A workaround was suggested there: Moving .settings from desura to an ext2 partition. For my system the hard disk crunching of >6min went to <1sec.
Is there a way to properly fix this within the desura/desurium code or is this an upstream issue, if such which?

NOTE: I have not tested either the bug nor the fix with the latest desurium build, can someone please confirm this.

I just saw in the commit log using libnotify on linux...isnt that an Ubuntu thing not a Linux thing?

http://www.moddb.com/groups/desura/forum/thread/shortcut-of-games-on-desktop/#705641

All Ready implemented on windows. Shouldnt be to hard to add.

cURL needs to be updated to at least 7.21.5 as 7.21.4 won't compile on Debian/Ubuntu because of no SSLv2 support

Every 5 hours or so (has to be under 6 hours), any files we put in XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (like the locks and sockets) should have their mtime attribute update to avoid being cleaned out. See here for details.

It's the key which makes Desura force update. After successfully updating itself it shows a message box with "Unknown Desura Link: -f."

(Doesn't apply to Desurium)

The Windows client will add games to control panel but it doesn't add the displayed name correctly. You end up with names of "Desura:" over and over for each game installed. If you remove the game using Desura then the Control Panel version isn't removed so you have to go in by hand and remove them from control panel and you get "There was an error removing this do you want to delete this".

When I started using Desura, it took me over a day to get used to the fact that the "Thread Watch" icon didn't mean "change view mode for the currently-displayed set of games or search results". (A feature which might also be good to have, but something for a separate bug report)

I'd suggest using a simple graphic of an eye to signify "thread watch" more intuitively. (Two arcs and an un-filled circle, like a simpler cousin to the CBS and Eyewitness logos.)

Currently they don't work. The ones in the readme. If you clone this repo and then follow the instructions exactly you'll see the problem. I'm currently hacking my way through it trying to fix it but I'm not sure if it's just my problem.

Linker errors cause the build to fail. Currently I've commented out the problem code.

It's pretty much a prerequisite to use the GPL license.

Currently the Desurium branding is broken (as in, nothing, and it included the Desura logo)

This needs to be fixed for copyright reasons for the next release.

Considering we're suppose to symlink the gef folder to the chromium one, it doesn't seem that the src/third_party/gefs folder should be in this repo.

http://www.moddb.com/groups/desura/forum/thread/unknown-desura-link-f

It'd be nice to have per-user game storage in $XDG_DATA_HOME (~/.local/share), instead of /opt/desura/common.

This is just an idea, and I'd like feedback and comments as the current system works fine.

Implementing it would probably best be done as a compile-time option for package maintainers or sysadmins, but then the official Desura website would have to provide two versions if both were to exist.

The correct version should be the text one from the following URL:

https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt

The names are mixed due to the different branding.

Yesterday, I had two games in my Linux Desura "Play" tab which were showing status icons with no clear means (beyond clicking them) for identifying what they indicate. (A pair of arrows in a circle and a lightning bolt)

As it's the most intuitive solution I'm aware of, given the current form integrated help in the Desura client takes (tooltips for some icons and a link to the forums), I propose that icons in the Play list should join toolbar icons in having explanatory tooltips.

Considering the readme just tells you to write in commands, it seems simpler to wrap them in a shell script and have the user use that does it not?

This one is going to be a pain in the behind to find. Consitantly but with no rhyme or reason the Linux client will crash and exit when doing an upload. The Windows version doesn't seem to have this problem. Sometimes it happens immediately when you try and start the upload sometimes it take as long at 10 minutes. It always crashes though before the upload is finished unless it is a small file like under 10 megs. Most updates to games are this small but getting a game up under Linux it always crashes multiple times and I have to resume it.

Less frequent is the crash on download. I have I would say maybe 5% of the time the client will crash on a download both on Windows and Linux.

I do way more uploading and downloading than most do with the client, so I see it all the time, but I am getting reports from developers and users of this issue.

Could the be a option to start desura in tray? So without desura window appears?

(linux version of desura i run)

As seen in the (XDG Base Directory Specification)[http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.7.html] we should be using $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/desura/ for configuration (this usually ends up being ~/.config/desura/) and $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/desura for sockets and other runtime things (XDG_RUNTIME_DIR isn't defined on my system, but XDG_CONFIG_HOME is. the specification tells you what to do if they aren't defined, though)

While the Linux client went public, this needs to be done sooner rather than later, seeing as the longer we wait the more of a hassle it will be to switch.

Switching would also allow people to specify the configuration directories using environmental variables, which is a huge bonus. Especially for distros like GoboLinux.

Why is the updater needed? Maybe it should be removed since package maintainers should be doing it..

The main menu button in gpl build is still using Desura's icon.

Hi,
I saw that 'install-deps.sh' has no Arch Linux option, so I tried to wrote mine. After that I wanted to test it, so tried to build Desurium. Third party built without problems, but I got an error while running build_lin/build.sh:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "../src/third_party/gyp/gyp", line 18, in <module>
    sys.exit(gyp.main(sys.argv[1:]))

Exception: Target ../src/third_party/libs.gyp:gtk#target has an invalid target type 'settings'.  Must be one of executable/loadable_module/static_library/shared_library/none.

I wanted to check if that's not dependencies fault, so I switched to Fedora (16), ran 'install-deps.sh'. After that I tried to build third party, and got problems with curl and wxWidgets.

• Curl gave me missing stropts.h.
  I ran: yum provides */stropts.h and got arm-gp2x-linux-glibc-2.3.6-9.fc15.noarch. Arm - strange... But installing it fixed problem.
• wxWidgets gave me:
  make: *** No rule to make target /usr/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h', needed by monodll_utilscmn.o'. Stop. And I'm not sure how I can fix it.

I don't know if that's a bug, or I am doing something wrong, but help would be appreciated :)

Also I saw that link branding-> branding_default is made, so line "Copy branding_default in src to src/branding" in readme is probably no longer needed. Also lines for installing dependencies could be changed to just running install-deps.sh.

When closing Desurium, I get the error:

09:17:51: Error: Failed to remove lock file '/home/jookia/.cache/desura/applock' (error 2: No such file or directory)

This is because I remove the $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/desura directory before the lock is deleted.

Right now everything is checked out and built by SVN, but I have Boost (for example) installed in my system. Allowing the use of external dependencies would be good.

Maybe a simple file exporting variables for which external dependencies to checkout and build would be a start? Of course it wouldn't do any detecting, but it'd allow us to manually set it up to use our system's stuff.

As you can see here in this gist, a single error in crypto is breaking almost everything.

src/third_party/crypto/include/secblock.h:32:7: note: void CryptoPP::AllocatorBase<T>::construct(CryptoPP::AllocatorBase<T>::pointer, const T&) [with T = CryptoPP::HuffmanDecoder::LookupEntry, CryptoPP::AllocatorBase<T>::pointer = CryptoPP::HuffmanDecoder::LookupEntry*]
src/third_party/crypto/include/secblock.h:32:7: note: candidate expects 2 arguments, 1 provided

We need to reorder the list in the pull down so it follows closer to most application setups/standards.

I believe it should be:

Console
History
Tools
Settings
(separator here)
Offline
Logout (remove)
Help
About
Exit

Wouldn't offline and logout give you the same effect. In both cases the client is still running and you are not logged in to the service. I am not sure that Logout is helpful when Offline would give you give you the logout but you just wouldn't be able to surf the website. I don't understand why you would want to surf the website logged out in the client.

Thoughts on this?

Need to implement tool tips like windows

Right now the system on the Linux side can't actually support certain kinds of expansions or mods. If the expansion or MOD has it's own launch script and doesn't launch from inside the game then the "desura_launch_Play.sh" script will get over-written and you can't play both at the same time.

I recommend we add the game number to the launch script name so that you won't have these collisions. Until this is resolved somehow we can't have expansions or MODs under Linux.

I am using curl - 7.21.5 to issue HTTP requests to fetch data segments. Under bad channel conditions I will be forced to cancel the issued HTTP request.

My Question: When I cancel a HTTP request do I receive 0 bytes? or do I receive a portion of the requested segment?

Example: I issued a HTTP request for 1 MB segment. After 3 seconds I decided to cancel the request. Do I receive a portion of the requested segment after cancellation or do I receive 0 bytes ?

It'd be easier to do than copying folders if the branding was specified was a build option.

Is it possible to get a proper Ubuntu tray icon, like an indictor so we just left click and get the menu, if that makes sense?

On GNU/Linux:

1. install game
2. back it (~/desura/common/) up
3. remove it ("remove files" and "remove it from account")
4. restore backup
5. install game from the client

Client won't be able to recognize valid game files. Perhaps there should be also option from backing-up data available from Desurium (but that's other topic).

Desurium is reporting problems while reading free disk space:

(25081, son of 25029) src/static/util/code/UtilLinux.cpp:390 - Free space for '/home/voitek/Projects/desurium/build_out/debug_lin/common/braid-64' could not be determined!
(25081, son of 25029) src/static/util/code/UtilLinux.cpp:390 - Free space for '/home/voitek/Projects/desurium/build_out/debug_lin/.settings' could not be determined!

This is because the actual path that's checked is missing the first slash, eg. it tries to check home/voitek/(...)

Here's the code:

uint64 getFreeSpace(const char* path)
{
    if (!path)
        return -1;

    UTIL::FS::Path p(path, "", false);

    std::vector<std::string> folders;

    for (size_t x=0; x<p.getFolderCount(); x++)
        folders.push_back(p.getFolder(x));

    struct statvfs fsinfo;

    for (size_t x=1; x<=folders.size(); x++)
    {
        UTIL::FS::Path fullP;

        for (size_t y=0; y<folders.size()-x; y++)
            fullP += folders[y];

        std::string szPath = fullP.getFullPath();

        if(statvfs(szPath.c_str(), &fsinfo) != 0)
            continue;

        return (fsinfo.f_bsize * fsinfo.f_bavail); 
    }

    char buffer[1024];
    snprintf(buffer, 1024, "Free space for '%s' could not be determined!", path);
    ERROR_OUTPUT(buffer);
    return -1;
}

The problem is, that std::string szPath = fullP.getFullPath(); never has a chance to prepend that slash, as it only does so if m_absolutePath equals true.

UtilFsPath.cpp:

Path::Path()
{
#ifdef NIX
    m_absolutePath = false;
#endif
}

To fix this, we need to assign fullP.m_absolutePath. So, you should add something like this after UTIL::FS::Path fullP; in UtilLinux.cpp:

        fullP.m_absolutePath = p.m_absolutePath;

If you grep 'src/third_party/cef/cef.gyp' you'll see that it requires 'leveldb', which doesn't exist in the Chromium source tree (anymore at least, I read somewhere that it was removed). It also requires other things that aren't there.

Thus it can't build.

There should be a option to install windowsw-only game in desura, and rune them through wine.
Many game all-ready work through wine :)

actually have a new error, everything compiles now, but desurium shows up with a blank screen, this is the error:

Everything else works just fine, I can even play my games by using the tray icon.
I read that this error plagued Desura earlier because it used system libs instead of the libraries
that came with Desura.

Anyway, have been goolging, but all the solutions so far are to force an update which I don't think I can do with Desurium... or can I?

I also already tried installing orbit and libSDL and then recompiling.

Games that require 32-bit libs should be filtered out if you're running 64-bit architecture without lib32 installed

We should add to the Tools menu under the Desura icon a link that takes you to the web page where it lists all the games you own and all the CDKeys for each game that needs it. There are other ways to get to it but it is pretty buried and if you don't know where it is your likely to miss it.

The URL is:
https://secure.desura.com/cart/cdkeys

It is the same URL for everyone and they just need to be logged in to get the list.

When you go to uninstall a game right now the two checkboxes you see are:
Remove Desura Files
Remove From Account

The second one is not correct. A game can never be removed from an account once it is purchased or added. All it is doing is no longer displaying that game in the client. The text should be:

"Remove from Client Game List" or "Remove From Local Game List"
or something similar.

The only reason this exists is so that you can remove the shortcuts that you create to your own games that are not from Desura.

The current build system which produces a distribution which should work everywhere is actually only useful for a rare and special case when the user downloads it from the Desura web site. I suggest to reserve it for the project maintainer (Lodle) so that

1. Other developers and package maintainers won't have to deal with occasionally forgotten or outdated build scripts
2. Lodle won't have to spend time maintaining the scripts so they would work for everyone when they do a lot of extra actions not required for either contributors or package maintainers.

Instead we should implement a simple build system which should only use system libraries which would simplify work of contributors and package maintainers (who would currently have to clean up all the bundled libs and fix scripts which build them).

The Linux client has a bug where if the directory for a game exists and is empty it gets stuck at "Validating Existing Files". If you cancel out then the client crashes. You have to go in and delete the empty directory for it to be able to download the game.
