10:15:15 <xiphon> Snipa: selsta: i'm also looking into completely stripping this openssl requirement 
10:16:18 <xiphon> plan to reuse monero core http client (epee lib)
10:18:46 <xiphon> ^ the same way  moneromooo reused it in monero-update utility
10:31:13 <xiphon> if everything goes fine, we will be okay with Qt without openssl support (i.e. '-openssl no' configuration)
12:39:45 <selsta> sounds like a good alternative if it reduces dependencies
15:43:28 <xiphon> Snipa: just pushed the PR, could you try to build some test binaries with the patch?
15:44:13 <xiphon> With the patch, we don't even use any Qt networking anymore, but using epee monero core lib instead to issue HTTP/HTTPS requests
15:45:21 -xmr-pr- xiphon opened pull request #2799: qt: drop Qt Network and Qt OpenSSL deps, use epee library instead

15:59:36 <xiphon> selsta: have to go right now, will fix later
15:59:51 <selsta> yep np

19:20:02 <kinghat> 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.
19:22:04 <kinghat> the dots in the password entry get cut off and then text field icon at the end get covered in long passwords: https://irc.kinghat.xyz/uploads/f4cd695dd8e658fd/image.png 
19:22:45 <kinghat> that menu on the left is really nice. the colored dots and the colored thing across the top is gone! 🙌
19:23:04 <selsta> is this the getmonero.org release binary?
19:23:11 <selsta> the dots should not look that large
19:23:25 <selsta> they should look normal
19:24:29 <selsta> like this https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/cQy5hTEb/Screenshot%202020-03-08%20at%2020.24.24.png
19:26:28 <kinghat> from github
19:27:09 <kinghat> im on KDE Neon so Qt 5.14.1
19:27:38 <selsta> it seems to be an issue with kde neon and monero-gui
19:27:49 <selsta> not sure where the problem is exactly
19:28:46 <selsta> https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/issues/2641
19:29:17 <kinghat> if i get around to running the VM i can check on kubuntu 19.10
19:29:47 <selsta> the other person who reported this also used kde neon
19:31:08 <kinghat> got to be a Qt thing since its the only distro running most recent. i guess rolling distros probably do as well
19:31:51 <kinghat> sorry i didnt go to the issues first
19:32:00 <selsta> no problem, too many open anyway lol
19:32:10 <selsta> so from github means binary from github or self compiled?
19:32:27 <kinghat> from github, not self built.
19:32:38 <selsta> because if you could try self compiling with Qt 5.14.1 it would be interesting to see if the bug is fixed
19:34:22 <kinghat> ok. ill have to put that into the when the VMs start up because of my pooter.
21:29:19 <ErCiccione[m]> FYI: the updated guides to verify the binaries are online on getmonero
22:18:09 <selsta> Snipa: re openssl + Qt, you don’t have to test anything yet, xiphon is still working on the patch
22:18:53 <selsta> if everything works well we don’t need  Qt compiled with openssl
22:20:40 <Snipa> kk.
22:26:50 <dEBRUYNE> ErCiccione[m]: Nice work, thanks
