Claude/taskcoach deprecation investigation 01 t3 fhv zc uv a hp cgo zh th g vo#13
Conversation
Added comprehensive documentation and automation scripts for running TaskCoach on Debian 12 (Bookworm): - DEBIAN_BOOKWORM_SETUP.md: Detailed setup guide with troubleshooting - QUICKSTART_BOOKWORM.txt: Quick reference for getting started - setup_bookworm.sh: Automated installation script - test_taskcoach.sh: Comprehensive test suite These resources help users: - Install all required dependencies (Python 3.11, wxPython 4.2.0) - Generate necessary resources (icons, templates) - Verify installation works correctly - Troubleshoot common issues Tested and confirmed working on Debian Bookworm with Python 3.11+
Provides detailed comparison between running TaskCoach on: - Debian 12 Bookworm (stable) - Recommended - Debian Trixie/Sid (testing/unstable) Key findings: - Bookworm is simpler due to Python/wxPython version alignment - Trixie requires explicit python3.12 usage due to version mismatch - Bookworm recommended for general users and production - Includes side-by-side setup comparison and troubleshooting

Just a short note that I saw this by notification, and it's great to see activity here at all. Thank you for working on this! |
|
Has anyone had success getting this to run on any recent versions of linux? There seems to have been alot of work on it in this repo. |
|
I have not tried this myself. I'm still running only Python2 Task Coach. But if anyone working on this thinks my testing would be helpful, I can try. I'm not a programmer, but I'm running recent linux (KDE Neon specifically) |
|
It was mostly working, but I cleaned up a few things. I made alot of changes, so I don't want to mess up this repo, so you can review and take what you need. I have a few other things I want to fix like the windows are not opening on the correct screens on multi-monitor setup, etc. These are the instructions to get it running on Debian Bookworm. I also want to get it running simple on Trixie. https://github.com/realcarbonneau/taskcoach/blob/master/DEBIAN_BOOKWORM_SETUP.md |

As I'm not a programmer, I'm not able to review meaningfully. I'm relying on others there but am able to do some testing on my own system or a family computer running Ubuntu or something… I see now incidentally how it could be a huge thing to use AI like Claude to get through a lot of these challenges, though I'm skeptical still and assume it all needs competent human review still at this time. And besides getting things working, we need the code in the end to be as accessible as possible to us humans to understand how to work with it. Once we actually have a working Python3 Task Coach, I have some design ideas about how to really help improve it and adjust actual features… |

I can't tag you in my forked project / issues, but check this issue and my project actions. I am trying to refactor and build on windows, but I don't have a windows machine to test. You can comment in the my issue below for tracking if you want. There are some new docs in my fork also explaining what the work I am doing. |
The input filter was eating all mouse, keyboard, and scroll events during rebuild + 1s settling period, making the app feel unresponsive (lost clicks, lost keystrokes). Only motion events drive the AUI cascade (OnMotion -> hover -> repaint -> repeat). Clicks, keyboard, and scroll do not contribute to the cascade and should pass through. Narrowed _MOTION_EVENTS to wxEVT_MOTION, wxEVT_ENTER_WINDOW, wxEVT_LEAVE_WINDOW only. Updated LIST_MANAGEMENT.md with the abandoned approach (#13) and revised architecture description.
