Description

The GUI is not important at all. In fact, up to today, I didn't even realize it HAD a GUI! The GUI wasn't in the original ebuild I wrote in CVS many years ago, or in upstream at the time, somebody added it along the way. I'll rip out the GUI stuff in a revbump. Absolutely everything in the GUI is doable via the CLI. The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=f6b905dd92ecedf91f6fe02956124e05d7acbb0e commit f6b905dd92ecedf91f6fe02956124e05d7acbb0e Author: Robin H.

What functionality are you using in the GUI that isn't available via the CLI? (In reply to Robin Johnson from comment #4) > What functionality are you using in the GUI that isn't available via the CLI? Not needing to remember various command lines for a tool I almost never use; being able to see at a glance (perhaps even from next to my generator) what my input voltage is; at-a-glance time remaining counter; etc. Ported to Python3+Qt5: https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/1310 |
