2. Get your VM with your ssh

Attach a device via virsh

This guide is based of this guide from RedHat. I must say it was pretty useful.

1. In order to locate the SkyConnect device via USB. first run lsusb before plugging the module:

Create temporary setup for pytest with context managers

My need

To create a temporary setup for pytest, you may think fixtures. But my case isn't like yours.
I needed to change tempolarly a value in the middle of my test so I could get faster results.

The clean solution

We will use the with statement. It will make a dedicated "scope" to that temporary setup. I'm sure that you already used them to open files. It is particularly powerful as it creates a context manager, which increases readibility, and protects developers from themselves.

Why do clean? Because it's an addiction since I discovered C++ destructors, but above all, Rust drop trait.

Modify Apache2::Imager::Resize to fix iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile error

First this error is not your module or your library in fault, it's the libpng library fault.

Since libpng 1.6 release, the library became more aggresive about incorrect iCCP data chunks. To fix that problem, you could go to a prior version or modify the images so that the iCCP chunk is removed.
