Recently in pioto.org Category

So, I had a few random old scripts lying around in SVN. I've migrated them to git now. Along with my other repos, they're browseable at http://git.pioto.org/

Things of interest might be:

• rbtpb - A replacement for tpb which is hopefully more robust.
• rubeak - A tool for handling multimedia keyboard keys, and some IR remotes.

Update: fixed links.

All of pioto.org is moving to a new server. To start things off, I’m locking my blog read-only. If you want to keep track of all this, Paludis ticket #582 has the details.

So, I finally dropped lighttpd/fcgi and switched back to Apache 2.2. Trac is running with mod_python now. I think I've tracked down the main cause of our load/memory issues - googlebot. It was indexing all 4000 some revisions of our svn repository via the trac browser... bad stuff, but it should be blocked from that by our robots.txt now.

Also, I've added WebDav for Subversion now. Paludis is at http://svn.pioto.org/paludis, and the same is true for most of the other repos I host as well. Now those who have evil company/school firewalls and proxies can get through.

Update: SVN is sooooo 2007. Paludis is using git now: http://git.exherbo.org/paludis/paludis.git/

Hmm, looks like either Typo is being stupid, or Planet is...

I'd like to blame planet, but I'll look into my config a bit later on.

Yesterday I finally got around to migrating the Trac page for Paludis from using SQLite to MySQL. Hopefully this will help with all the system load and locking issues we've seen recently.

I'm starting this blog over again... I was having issues with the old one, which was running off of sqlite. Now I'm using mysql, and I hope this will help the overall availability and system load.
