01:09 hecks      Good enough
01:10 hecks      Though it does not exactly convey the absolute buttbugger of a lag you're almost guaranteed to experience when threading mapgen heavily together with on_generated
01:11 hecks      However, for that, I'd rather add a warning in lua_api for the on_generated function
01:40 paramat    ok thanks
09:45 nerzhul    !tell stujones11 tell me when you are around i'm stucked on the android build with the libiconv not finding the C compiler on Gitlab :(
09:45 ShadowBot  nerzhul: O.K.
13:23 rubenwardy at what point are release candidates done?
13:23 rubenwardy my understanding is at the start of the feature freeze
13:32 srifqi     nerzhul: What's the version of latest Minetest on Play Store? Has 0.4.17.1-3 released or still only for beta tester?
13:58 nerzhul    srifqi: 0.4.17.3 is the official play store version as it's coherent with previous, we should do a better thing on next release patches (i hope android can be full synced with PCs). It's based on the current stable-0.4 branch
13:58 nerzhul    and it's in production
13:58 nerzhul    i pushed it to production yesterday
14:04 nerzhul    our note increased from 3/5 to 3.75/5 for this release currently
14:10 srifqi     Okay.
14:10 * srifqi   waiting until 5/5
14:17 * p_gimeno lends a chair to srifqi
14:22 nerzhul    see #8069

14:34 p_gimeno   nerzhul: any info on what the signal is? SIGSEGV?
14:38 nerzhul    yep
14:39 nerzhul    i added my comment
14:39 nerzhul    i suspect the gl call which return a NULL string on those 2 phones
14:39 nerzhul    i will provide a patch to remove the C++ part and do pure C on that
14:43 p_gimeno   yeah, I wondered if it was a SIGBUS which would point to a different cause
14:47 nerzhul    see #8070
14:47 ShadowBot  https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/8070 -- Fix a crash on Android with Align2Npot2 by nerzhul
15:02 p_gimeno   from what I see it's not normal that it returns NULL, in every place I've looked it says that the opengl context might not be correctly initialized if that happens
15:03 nerzhul    i cannot do better at this point, this should switch to software rendering
15:04 p_gimeno   kk
15:19 srifqi     I can run and play 0.4.17.3 without problem. How to reproduce the crash?
15:20 p_gimeno   from the symptoms, it looks like a driver- or machine-specific problem
15:24 nerzhul    srifqi it's specific to some phones i think
15:24 nerzhul    i updated the PR to fix a performance issue shown by numberZero
16:05 nerzhul    merging #8070
16:05 ShadowBot  https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/8070 -- Fix a crash on Android with Align2Npot2 by nerzhul
16:05 nerzhul    i cherry pick to stable-0.4 if we need a point release in the upcoming days
16:14 crazyR     Is there any way to created a protected namespace in a mod that only whitelisted mods can use?
16:15 crazyR     does the built in security framework offer this functionality and if not is it something that could be considered?
16:22 nerzhul    it's not the case and except if we have a lua state for each modpack it will be difficult
16:23 nerzhul    mod isolation is not possible currently
16:55 Cornelia   Hey, I was wondering if there was an in-progress changelog for 5.0
17:54 nerzhul    the official changelog page, it's linked on the forum
17:54 nerzhul    dev.minetest.net/Changelog
17:54 nerzhul    i didn't finished to complete it
17:58 nerzhul_   an op can update the topic to notify about freeze ? i'm not
