Compiled Secrets password manager but it crashed


↺ Compiled Secrets password manager but it crashed


> Secrets, formerly known as PasswordSafe, project is here:


> https://github.com/falkalexander/PasswordSafe


↺ https://github.com/falkalexander/PasswordSafe


> There is also a Windows "Password Safe", which has no connection with this one. Secrets is compatible with KeePass database, and requires gtk4.


> The latest version is 7.3; however, it requires a later 'glib' package than is in Easy. So I went back to 6.5.


> It requires a few python3 modules, and also 'cracklib' and 'libpwquality' that I compiled in OE.


> It started OK, created a database, but when attempted to create an entry, it crashed. So much for that.

[GSOC 2023] Progress on perspective transformation


↺ [GSOC 2023] Progress on perspective transformation


> While the change request to add reference images was being reviewed, I started working on ticket #18415, which suggests adding shear and perspective transformations. I decided to implement the perspective transformation since I still need to figure out which way I’m going to implement the shear transformation. Hopefully the experience in implementing the perspective transformation will give me information that will help me decide how to implement the shear transformation.
