Research on software evolution is very active, but evolutionary prin- ciples, models and theories that properly explain why and how software systems evolve over time are still lacking. Similarly, more empirical research is needed to understand how different software projects co-exist and co-evolve, and how contrib- utors collaborate within their encompassing software ecosystem. In this chapter, we explore the differences and analogies between natural ecosys- tems and biological evolution on the one hand, and software ecosystems and soft- ware evolution on the other hand. The aim is to learn from research in ecology to advance the understanding of evolving software ecosystems. Ultimately, we wish to use such knowledge to derive diagnostic tools aiming to predict survival of soft- ware projects within their ecosystem, to analyse and optimise the fitness of software projects in their environment, and to help software project communities in managing their projects better. This work has been partially supported by F.R.S-F.N.R.S. research grant BSS-2012/V 6/5/015 and ARC research project AUWB-12/17-UMONS-3, “Ecological Studies of Open Source Soft- ware Ecosystems” financed by the Ministere` de la Communaute´ franc¸aise - Direction gen´ erale´ de l’Enseignement non obligatoire et de la Recherche scientifique, Belgium.

  • Fix Quod Libet Empty Panes on Gentoo GNU/Linux (Bug Solving Process)
    Fix Quod Libet empty panes on Gentoo GNU/Linux (bug solving process) Arne Babenhauserheide December 11, 2013 For a few days now my Quod Libet has been broken, showing only empty space instead of information panes. I investigated halfheartedly, but did not find the cause with quick googling. Today I decided to change that. Contents 1 Gathering Information 2 1 2 The solution-hunting process 3 3 The core solution 4 4 Conclusion 6 1 Gathering Information As starting point I installed the Quod Libet plugins (media-libs/quodlibet-plugins), thinking that the separation between plugins and mediaplayer might not be perfect. That did not fix the problem, but a look at the plugin listing gave me nice backtraces: And these actually show the reason for the breakage: Cannot import GTK: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/arne/.quodlibet/plugins/songsmenu/albumart.py", line 51, in <module> from gi.repository import Gtk, Pango, GLib, Gdk, GdkPixbuf File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/__init__.py", line 27, in <module> from ._gi import _API, Repository ImportError: cannot import name _API Let’s look which package this file belongs to: 2 equery belongs /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/__init__.py * Searching for /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/__init__.py ... dev-python/pygobject-3.8.3 (/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/gi/__init__.py) So I finally have an answer: pygobject changed the API. Can’t be hard to fix.

The principle design objectives include an intuitive system, meaning that it should be easy to pick up and use, as well as good localization/internation- alization support and accessibility. GNOME is founded upon the X Window System, the graphical networking interface found on many Linux distri- butions, which provides the basis for a wide range of graphical tools and window managers. More commonly known as just X, it can also be referred to as X11R7 and X11 (such as that found on Mac OS X). Coming from the world-renowned Massachusetts Institute of Technology, X has gone through several versions, each of which has extended and enhanced the technology.
