Re: Installation script

Hi Thomas

Thank you very much for the notes.

It could be good to report these little bugs to the respective applications:

Hi Ondrej,

ok, sounds logical.

One point: Couldn´t it be useful for the normal unexperienced LINUX user to include his „normal“ application menue path from Debian so that his experience wouldn´t be so strange as he find all standard apps he know (LibreOffice etc.)? 

By the way I have some Questions ;-). The Service parts from the main menue (GWorkspace) don´t work at all, right (for instance starting a new task in Simple Agenda)? Is it a task for Smalltalk (Steptalk)? How can it be fixed?

Do other Service parts work? If not: GWorkspace bug

P.S. Hi Riccardo, I couldn't find link to bug tracker at https://gnustep.github.io/experience/GWorkspace.html#Maintainer as emailing GNUstep mailing list is, while workable, not a very useful option for engaging other contributors ("Hi I'm new here and want to fix some bugs in GWorkSpace . Oh they are scattered in mailing list discussions? Nevermind I'm going home")

If yes: Simple Agenda bug --> https://github.com/poroussel/simpleagenda/issues

(This bug I can test on my system when I am home)

  In Gorm there is the effect that Gorm completely shuts down when you test an unsafed project and try to end this test with shortcut #q…. don´t know the reason.

Bug of Gorm

P.S. Gregory,  https://gnustep.github.io/experience/Gorm.html does not contain link to bug tracker

(This bug I can test on my system when I am home)

Also the Icons a a little misplaced in the windows…..

Bug of Gorm

(This bug I can not test as description is too vague)

Some glitches are in the presentation in GWorkspace, Gorm etc. 

Bug of GWorkspace 

Bug of Gorm

(This bug I can not test as description is too vague)

for instance if you have switched to other languages than English the Spaces in the textfields often don´t fit.

Bug of whatever app this is in

(This bug I can not test as description is too vague)

How can I help? ;-).

1. Report bugs including your OS, your gnustep version and your (whatever app) version details, steps to reproduce, and screenshots
   
2. Second step might be installing latest git versions from upstream and manually compiling them to see if the bug has already been fixed. If not, then as you have source code available on your machine, you may be able to fix some of these bugs as comfortable.
   
3. Note there is live chat available for assistance at Libera Chat, http://libera.chat One Click Connect >> https://web.libera.chat/gamja/?channels=#gnustep <<<  may want to join and keep the window open, and monitor the chat, for a couple days to catch someone awake
   

Regards,

Svetlana
