Welcome Ansel GPT !

After I finally wired the whole website and docs to a water-tight translation workflow (using po4a on top of Hugo), which happens to use the exact same toolset and logic as the Ansel application, I got the idea of automating empty translations, first from the software translation files, then through ChatGPT API, which does a very fair job at translating Markdown syntax.

Working alone, you can’t rely on social loafing , so you have to be clever. You can see the list of things I have already automated in background for Ansel.

Changes in distribution support for Linux AppImage package

Rawspeed (the library providing the decoders for camera raw files) has deprecated support for GCC < 12. As a result, I can no longer build the AppImage on Ubuntu 20.04 (using Github runners) but I have to build it on 22.04.

It means any Linux distribution having libc older than 2.35 will not be able to start the new AppImages starting today. That should not affect most users running distributions upgraded in 2021 or more recently. Ubuntu 20.04 and other LTS/old stable distributions (Debian stable) may be affected.
