my hibiscus wrapper now alerts me through XMPP, when the hibiscus server found new bank transactions
I am using the sendxmpp utility (written in Perl) for that.
-
the tool that analyses my “fetchmail log file” is now able to alert me, when “fingerprints do not match”
And it also tells me the new “sslfingerprint” clause for fetchmail’s rc file, so that I can immediately replace the old one in ~/.fetchmailrc .

sendxmpp-1.24 got created rather recently (2014-09-13) – two .pm-s involved indirectly needed changes – and now it works for me
The software also moved to a new maintainer.
Two modules involved showed warnings like this:
Use of uninitialized warnings …
- …/XML/Stream/Parser.pm – method: new
- …/Net/XMPP/Debug.pm – method: Init
They both have their github repositories:
I forked them both, introduced my changes, and committed pull requests. I wonder, whether they will get accepted, and I also wonder, what it will take, so that the current tarballs resp. github ZIP downloadables will find their way to CPAN.
I created 2 accounts on jabber.de,
- one for initiating messages,
- one for receiving them.
Now sendxmpp works fine for me.
Update 2015-03-25: Uses these patches to install and run sendxmpp etc. successfull on a Synology DiskStation.

backing up my new openSUSE VM to my Synology NAS – using my beloved Ruby Rakefile
Of course the Rakefile needed a few changes, and it also got a few long awaited changes applied.
One VM like that on the Mac mini (alternate Special Edition) hosting the VM is like nothing. A new openSUSE, a new VM – with all the same minimal contents inside – that will be fun.

- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2922128/synopsis – next episode – actually #3.3 and #3.4 belong together
In episode #3.3 “Krav Maga” got quoted as the martial art, the negative main character had exercised.
