ripple-client-desktop ported to RippleAPI

Disclaimer: this work is provided "as-is" and is not endorsed by or affiliated with Ripple Inc. in anyway.

RippleAPI was one of the APIs (the other one is core API) in ripple-lib before version 0.13.0 which was released in 2015 and has been the only API since 0.13.0.

ripple-client-desktop was abandoned by Ripple Inc. in 2015. By the time it was abandoned, it could only work with core API.

I started porting it to RippleAPI in late 2018.  The progress was recorded in this twitter thread:

You can download the executable files at this link:

https://github.com/r0bertz/ripple-client-desktop/releases

If you want to try it, please try it with testnet account, account with small balances, small transaction size, in that order. Because even though there is no known bug to me, after all this is a one man job. There could be bugs that I haven't seen yet.

To change server to testnet server, check "Online mode" under Network settings. Testnet server address can be found here https://xrpl.org/xrp-testnet-faucet.html. After changing server, please restart the client because server reconnection is not handled very well in ripple-lib.

Note that it may take a short while for it to connect for the very first time.

Thanks!

The ripple-client-desktop is an extraordinary portfolio. I really can't understand why Ripple abandoned the development of this portfolio. Thank you very much for your work. I will install and do a test. Congratulations.

portage-2.2 preserve-libs FEATURES explained

Maybe I am not the right person to write about it. But I felt the necessity to write about it. So I will just write something about preserve-libs, leaving other FEATURES to more competent people. Portage-2.2 has already entered unstable tree. Many people has started using it. It has many new features, like preserve-libs, sets, license filter and so on. Please check README and RELEASE-NOTES for a complete list. I will only talk about preserve-libs. To understand why we need it, we have to know some background information. First of all, applications are not built from scratch. Any non trivial apps use lot of libraries. In GNU/Linux, most of them are shared libraries, i.e. .so files. You can use `ldd /usr/bin/mplayer` to check what shared libraries an app has been linked to, replace mplayer to whatever program you'd like to check. Shared libraries have versions. E.g. /usr/lib/libavformat.so.51, here 51 denotes its version. After upgrading, the version number may change. E.g. /usr/lib/...
