Snipa: selsta: i'm also looking into completely stripping this openssl requirement

plan to reuse monero core http client (epee lib)

^ the same way moneromooo reused it in monero-update utility

if everything goes fine, we will be okay with Qt without openssl support (i.e. '-openssl no' configuration)

sounds like a good alternative if it reduces dependencies

Snipa: just pushed the PR, could you try to build some test binaries with the patch?

With the patch, we don't even use any Qt networking anymore, but using epee monero core lib instead to issue HTTP/HTTPS requests

xiphon: ../monero/contrib/epee/include/net/http_client.h:31:10: fatal error: 'boost/shared_ptr.hpp' file not found

selsta: have to go right now, will fix later

yep np

i think they top left icons need hover info. not sure what the www icon would do, didnt know what the left most icon is or does until i clicked it. the moon i get.

the dots in the password entry get cut off and then text field icon at the end get covered in long passwords: irc.kinghat.xyz/uploads/f4cd695dd8e658fd/image.png

that menu on the left is really nice. the colored dots and the colored thing across the top is gone! 🙌

is this the getmonero.org release binary?

the dots should not look that large

they should look normal

from github

im on KDE Neon so Qt 5.14.1

it seems to be an issue with kde neon and monero-gui

not sure where the problem is exactly

if i get around to running the VM i can check on kubuntu 19.10

the other person who reported this also used kde neon

got to be a Qt thing since its the only distro running most recent. i guess rolling distros probably do as well

sorry i didnt go to the issues first

no problem, too many open anyway lol

so from github means binary from github or self compiled?

from github, not self built.

because if you could try self compiling with Qt 5.14.1 it would be interesting to see if the bug is fixed

ok. ill have to put that into the when the VMs start up because of my pooter.

FYI: the updated guides to verify the binaries are online on getmonero

Snipa: re openssl + Qt, you don’t have to test anything yet, xiphon is still working on the patch

if everything works well we don’t need Qt compiled with openssl

kk.

ErCiccione[m]: Nice work, thanks
