ZehraI'll be checking out arch, alpine and gentoo in the future. :)01:32
blast007Zehra: bzadmin doesn't *need* a curses library.  It would just only have the stdin/stdout/stdboth UI types and lack the curses UI type.01:33
blast007Zehra: also,f or arch, keep in mind that there is an 'archinstall' command available from the installer live media that will run an install wizard.  That's what I've used.01:34
blast007also, for*01:34
Zehrablast007: By any chance were other interfaces planned for bzadmin in the future?01:38
blast007we should add a graphical interface to it01:41
blast007maybe one that could use OpenGL to speed up the rendering01:41
blast007and while we're at it, maybe we could also make it possible to play the game from this new bzadmin UI01:42

* Zehra realizes arch and gentoo use systemd01:49
blast007systemd is rather nice01:52
blast007sounds like Gentoo uses OpenRC by default for the init system, though01:55

Optic_Delusionnow I'm stuck with what led me to the other things... No Modeltool that includes drawinfio conversion can be opened on my mac.14:26
Optic_Delusionneed a modeltool.2.88 compiled for apple silicon. 14:28
Optic_Delusioner 2.9914:28
blast007can't apple silicon macs run intel mac binaries through Rosetta2?14:33
Optic_Delusionnot through the terminal?14:40
Optic_Delusionit's the security that i'm having problems with. developer verification... 14:43
Optic_DelusionI'm working with a copy of a decade old file, in the terminal  it says "zsh: killed     ./modeltool" then a dialog comes up about developer verification 14:44
Optic_DelusionI was able to get a copy of modeltool downloaded with BZFlag 2.4.26 to run, but it has no drawinfo 14:46
Optic_Delusionchmod 755 has no effect14:47
blast007sounds like you need to allow it to run.  might be marked as being downloaded from the Internet, so it's getting blocked by GateKeeper14:50
blast007if you right click on it and choose Open, what happens?14:51
Optic_DelusionGAH, that was too simple14:52
Optic_Delusionworks.. but 14:52
Optic_DelusionI'm also having a serious WTF moment, for years people have been asking me about drawinfo, and I tell them, "you already have modeltool in your downoaded app", and now you tell me that drawinfo support never made it into 2.4 modeltool... so when they went and found modeltool, and tried to run it... they had a WTF moment too?14:53
Optic_DelusionI've been working with the same old copy for over a decade... i guess that's why drawinfo usage never blossomed14:54
Optic_Delusionnever knew14:54
JuestOptic_Delusion: issue spctl --master-disable and then run xattr -rsd com.apple.quarantine on the files18:23
Juestwell, the first command is optional but basically it lowers the security for scanned files to allow anything from anywhere to run18:25
Juestthe second removes the protection altogether by removing the extended attribute that marks them for verification18:26
blast007I wouldn't run the first without fully understanding the implications of that.  And I think the second is unnecessary as they've already got it running.18:28
Juesti mean, the second command basically removes the verification without the verification :)18:34
blast007Does right clicking and choosing Open do that already?18:39
Juestblast007: no, it runs verification and then removes it when you click on open18:40
Juestthe only difference is that right click open lets you open things from unidentified developers which normally doesnt allow you to18:41
blast007ah18:41
Juestonce you click open in the verification prompt is when its removed, removing it manually via xattr bypasses it entirely18:42
Juestonly downloads that are aware of the quarantine flag and use the apple api for that matter do have it, CLI tools and such dont put the extended attribute18:43
Juestthe spctl command lets you select allow programs from anywhere18:44
Juestwhich lowers the security but it still verifies stuff and informs you about it but it doesnt display a warning18:45
blast007Windows does the same sort of thing through NTFS alternate data streams18:45
Juestyou mean like the "block" stuff it has in properties?18:46
Juestthat's a thing since xp iirc18:46
blast007yup18:46
Juestits worse than apple solution18:46
Juestit only shows a dialog every time you try to open it18:47
Juestthan XProtect that is18:47
blast007I mean for the marking of stuff as being "from the Internet"18:48
blast007for verification it has SmartScreen18:48
Juestfair enough19:20
