I would like to actively contribute to Kubuntu and KDE. What is the process I need to go to become one of the maintainers? [06:33] hi karthik085 [06:33] a good place to start is #ubuntu-motu and #kubuntu-devel [06:34] karthik085: the first step to become a maintainer is to become a "MOTU" [06:34] (very short version of the story) [06:36] Hey fabbione. I applied to become a MOTU. [06:36] ok did you read all the documentation on how to become one? [06:36] Yup. [06:36] because you need to show up during TB/CC meetings and prove yourself as a valid MOTU before you can be one [06:37] i think the best is to ask in -motu how to do so [06:37] I will be attending the one on Tuesday [06:37] i personally don't recall all the details and i don't want to put you in the wrong direction [06:37] Do you know what skills one need to become a maintainer? [06:38] it depends what your skills are [06:38] there is always something to do :) [06:38] :-) [06:39] I am good at programming, especially C++ and Java. Currently, I am learning Ruby. I also designed/developed various projects for my university. Recently, a paper based on my program got accpted in a conference. [06:41] karthik085: sounds good.. i think you need to find yourself a place where to apply these skills... [06:42] we don't exactly force people to do something they don't want to :) [06:42] and talking with the MOTU's is the best you can do imho === Xof [~mas01cr@158.223.59.22] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:43] Ok..

[08:25] infinity: what's up? [08:25] Working to get a bunch of upstream version bumps ready in the next 2 days, since I just went back and re-read the release schedule and checked the calendar. :) [08:25] ehehe [08:26] <\sh> question: the upstreamfreeze is only for main, or is it also for universe? [08:26] Also, wishing customs would release my laptop and send it to me. [08:26] elmo: [08:26] elmo: please sync pmount from Debian experimental [08:26] \sh : Just main. Universe gets some slack cut, since we don't officially support it anyway. [08:27] <\sh> wonderful :) [08:27] \sh: syncing stops, but uploading has been fine thus far (without approval) [08:27] \sh: right, that's entirely MOTU driven; if they accept a new upstream release 2 days before release, that's fine [08:27] hehe [08:27] FOr some value of "fine"... A little common sense would be nice. [08:27] of course [08:27] since universe doesn't ship on a CD i don't see why it should freeze at all [08:28] <\sh> Amaranth, we need to get some apps stable in the end...and sometimes it's better to have an older stable version, then an unstable new version ,-) [08:28] WOW.. i think i never managed to hang d-i so badly.. getting the screen to switch to another tty :) [08:28] I think we've hashed this one before and reached a consensus that a stable release really needs to be stable, even for universe. [08:29] fabbione: I saw a similar problem with a Hoary pre-release [08:29] womble: nah.. i am messing with it :) [08:29] Oh, OK. Might want to get that one fixed before release... [08:30] womble: no.. really? :) [08:30] Amaranth: and that it's trickier to accept uploads to universe while leaving main frozen [08:30] <\sh> but actually I would really like to have some comments on this showstopper...should we put this app into universe as a replacement of the old package, or should we w8 for debian and kick the old one out of the repos? [08:30] <\sh> https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=11456 [08:30] Ever seen Dumb and Dumber? I'm thinking the "IOU 1 ferrari" scene here [08:31] <\sh> (actually it's not only an app) [08:31] \sh : Does anything {build-,}depend on it? [08:32] <\sh> infinity, only the packages generated directly from the source [08:33] \sh : And do your packages seem to build and work fine? [08:33] <\sh> infinity, i tried the last official "stable release" of gnuradio-core (replacement for old gnuradio-0.9) and it didn't compile with gnu c/c++ 3.4 or 4.x [08:33] \sh : If so, I see no issues. Just version your package with -0ubuntu1, so a Debian -1 will be higher, and see about working with the Debian maintainer to converge the packaging/sources at some point in the future. [08:34] <\sh> the latest cvs head is compiling and the debian maintainer was really surprised as well to see it's compiling..(i only test it for i386) [08:34] \sh : Debian will be doing the gcc4 transition very (VERY) soon, so the Debian packages will need updating ASAP anyway. [08:34] <\sh> infinity, yeah read the announcement of doko on d-d [08:42] is the kernel going to get built with gcc 4? [08:52] Amaranth : Not for breezy. [08:52] <\sh> well, new xorg and some new eclipse stuff nice [08:52] ok, can we at least get the same version of gcc 3.4 that the kernel was actually built with? :) === dholbach [foobar@td9091c04.pool.terralink.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:53] morning === HiddenWolf [~hidden@136.180.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:54] Hey dholbach [08:54] <\sh> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/libx11-6_1-0x1,ba1a10000005bp-1336.2.1+cvs.20050615-4_i386.deb: versuche /usr/lib/X11/XErrorDB zu berschreiben, welches auch in Paket xlibs-data ist [08:54] dholbach, morning!

[10:31] mdz: well, it can also change the default card, that's no problem [10:31] mdz: however, we wanted a "configure card..." which calls the mixer [10:31] mdz: of course this should show the new card by default, to make any sense [10:32] mdz: however, that's an entirely different problem, it's just the reason why I didn't yet upload that [10:32] pitti: is it something we could bounty upstream for? [10:32] to make it easier to tell the mixer to change? [10:32] mdz: I already talked with upstream [10:32] mdz: upstream's preferred solution would involve some heavy gconf/gstreamer action [10:33] daniels: still a file overlap between libx11-6 and xlibs-data [10:33] mdz: however, finally he didn't think a simple command line argument were entirely wrong [10:37] seb128: ping [10:37] doko: pong [10:37] fabbione: after a fresh install, I get a post-update information item telling me that I've just installed a new version of the Linux kernel [10:38] Kamion: hmmmmm.... yes.. === ivoks [~ivoks@backup.grad.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:38] Kamion: that's a tricky problem to solve [10:39] Riddell: hi [10:39] Kamion: because the notification file is installed with the package.. making it part of postinst is an issue...

[10:46] Kamion: yes.. and there is no way i can change postinstall dynamically at build time because it's added by kernel-package.... [10:46] infinity: oo.o2 [10:46] fabbione: I have the same problem with the language pack upgrade notification; writing the file in postinst is the only solution I see [10:47] pitti: i can't write it in postinst.. really.. [10:47] pitti: with package names changing, that's tricky for the kernel [10:47] so how do I clear out the notification applet's queue? [10:48] doko : Indeed, OO.o2 is in needs-build on all arches. [10:48] Kamion: i think it's enough you remove the files from the notification dir before executing it [10:48] doko : Do any of its build-deps need some TLC? [10:48] Kamion: since it's a fresh install the notification applet won't even see them [10:48] Kamion: /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/notification-2.6.12-3-powerpc [10:48] infinity: TLC? [10:49] fabbione: (a) I don't execute the applet, I just start GNOME, (b) that file is shipped in the .deb so I can't remove it [10:49] doko : Tender Loving Care. Or "effort on my part". [10:49] infinity: no [10:49] Alright. [10:49] Kamion: well yes you can remove it.. it's not a config file ;) [10:50] fabbione: /etc/kernel/postinst.d [10:50] fabbione: I use that for linux-hardened-support, works very well [10:50] pitti: ? [10:51] fabbione: that's a hook dir for kernel postinst's [10:51] fabbione: you can drop a file in that directory, and it will be executed; you can use that to generate the update notifications [10:52] pitti: and what would be different from installing the file directly? [10:52] fabbione: it's rather painful for me to mark that update-notifier hook as seen [10:52] fabbione: (short of just rming the file, which I won't do) [10:52] fabbione: you can check whether you are installing from scratch, or upgrading [10:52] pitti: you will hit the same problem as Kamion told you above... [10:52] fabbione: to do that, I have to write into the initial user's home directory; and I can't do that in all cases, because it might be e.g. NFS-mounted [10:52] pitti: with a name change due to ABI change, you won't see the difference between a fresh install and an upgrade [10:53] the installer avoids stuff that requires it to write into the initial user's home directory for good reason [10:53] fabbione: you can look for /boot/vmlinu* or similar [10:53] fabbione: or I can try to get you some hint that you're running within the initial bootstrap [10:54] Kamion: i am more prone to remove this notification area thingy [10:54] though that's also relatively hackish ... [10:54] it's more a problem to do than the problem that it solves [10:54] and hounetly the kernel maintainer scripts are already complex enough to add extra point of possible failures [10:55] mm [10:57] could the hooks themself extended to better support your needs somehow? [10:57] (sorry for jumping in late) [10:57] mvo: eheh no problem dude :) [10:57] if there were a global way (not touching users' home directories) to mark a hook as seen, that might help? [10:58] mvo: the hook would require a high level of complexity to recognize only what's happening [10:58] Kamion: that would certainly be doable [10:58] Kamion: would it be so bad for you to just trash that file at first install? imho it's at the same level of hugly hacks as me getting crazy to figure that out from maintainer script hooks [10:59] fabbione: I think it goes over my hack threshold [10:59] mvo: u-n should check the md5sums of changed files, so that it doesn't display the same notice again [10:59] I don't mind globally saying "no notifications on first install", but trashing a specific file for a specific package (even if it is the kernel) is getting pretty grotty [11:00] well, the first alternative would indeed help [11:00] Kamion: the hook files are not precious, I think I'll add some sort of cleanup for old hook files anyway in the future [11:00] mvo: right now I wanted to convert the langpack update notice from "ship in deb" to "generate dynamically in postinst" for the same reason [11:00] Kamion: i understand that [11:01] Kamion: but your point is valid of course [11:01] mvo: I basically have the same problem: if I install the langpack from scratch, I don't want the note === minghua [~minghua@ppp-70-247-42-78.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:01] pitti: not sure about this, the kernel message "please reboot" is always the same, but needs to be displayed nevertheless [11:01] mvo: I think all files shipped in .debs have to be considered precious - I don't want to confuse tools like debsums by going around removing shipped files [11:02] right [11:02] mvo: maybe a better solution than reinventing the wheel in many postinsts is a "install-update-note" script in u-n? [11:03] pitti: what would that script do? [11:04] mvo: maybe "i-u-n " [11:04] it could compare postinst's $2 lt-nl [11:05] so it wouldn't be installed if the pkg is installed from scratch ($2 == '') [11:05] and wouldn't be installed if it already exists [11:05] however, I didn't think about that thoroughly, I just need that for the langpacks [11:05] fabbione certainly has different requirements for ABI changes etc. [11:07] pitti: would it be ok if you could try to make your language-pack script a bit more generic so that it could be envoled into a generic i-u-n script later? [11:07] tvo: hi [11:07] you're my mentor :) [11:07] you received my mail? === minghua [~minghua@ppp-70-247-42-78.dsl.hstntx.swbell.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [11:07] mvo: well, I'll implement what I need now, then we can discuss about a generic approach [11:08] pitti: fair enough, thanks [11:09] Riddell: you received my mail? [11:10] tvo: Can you do me a favor? You don't have to do it now, just for next time you connect. [11:10] Riddell: any comments about it? [11:10] Amaranth: probably [11:10] tvo: It helps others figure out who people are if they put their real name in for their user info. [11:11] right now /whois tvo says 'gaim', I dunno if you can change that with gaim [11:11] Amaranth: ah ok, I'll try to figure that out [11:12] elmo: is it possible/reasonable to move things from multiverse to universe via teri, or should I ask you instead?

[11:22] pitti: KDE does need the language set [11:22] pitti: do you have an example package I could test? [11:23] Riddell: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/langpacks/ -> language-pack-kde-de-base_20050702_all.deb language-pack-kde-de_20050702_all.deb [11:23] Riddell: I tried with "kenolaba" [11:24] Riddell: I straced it, and it does not look in /usr/share/locale-langpacks, as libc does [11:24] Riddell: so I assume KDE apps use a kdelibs or whatever implementation? === icaro [~icaro@adsl-ull-195-17.44-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel === icaro hi all [11:27] Hi icaro [11:27] hi pitti === aigarius [~aigarius@159.148.239.180] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:28] pitti: Hi Martin, 'sup?

[11:46] doko: I moved them into main at the same time as libxt-java and libxp-java [11:47] they were just new binaries from a source package in main [11:47] libdb4.2-java-dev | 4.2.52-19ubuntu2 | breezy | amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, sparc [11:47] libdb4.2-java | 4.2.52-19ubuntu2 | breezy | amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, sparc === icaro [~icaro@adsl-ull-195-17.44-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:48] mdz: yep. I'm waiting for a reply from the Debian maintainer. at least on our release architectures they should be preferred over the blas and refblas packages. [11:49] mdz: ok, after the last Packages update, it can be found again. === madduck [~madduck@madduck.developer.debian] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === martink [~martin@p54B39321.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === dr88dr88 [~gerrit@h174040.upc-h.chello.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel === HWolf [~hidden@136.204.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === doko [~doko___@dsl-084-059-083-254.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === icaro [~icaro@adsl-ull-195-17.44-151.net24.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:09] doko: I also moved boost, since it was required by openoffice and pitti reviewed it [12:10] Kamion: I'll upload a new update-notifier with support for a global "seen" file in /etc/update-notifier/hooks_seen. the format is "hookfile-name mtime was-run" (e.g. "kernel `date +%s` 0") [12:10] mvo: how does that help? [12:11] mvo: how does the current mechanism work, to know when the message has already been seen? [12:11] mdz: thanks [12:11] pitti: after a fresh install kamion can add a entry to this file and the kernel hook will not be displayed [12:12] mdz: it save a seen-file (same format) in the users homedir (in .update-notifier/hooks_seen) [12:12] elmo: ping? [12:12] hm, still looks h4ck1sh [12:12] pitti: yes :/ === fabbione -> food [12:14] seb128: left alt+tab works as normal, but right alt+tab acts funny (when I release right alt, the selector stays up, and focus never changes). do you know what might cause that? [12:14] mvo: ok, I guess the only problem after that is that I have to work out the hookfile-name, but that should be straightforward [12:16] find /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/ -type f | sed "s/\$/$(date +%s) 0/" [12:16] or similar [12:16] yes, that should work [12:16] well, with an extra space and with -printf '%P\n' [12:17] infinity: what's happening with the infrastructure bits of SoundEvents? === SloMoSnail [~slomo@vpn-imt1.uni-paderborn.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:22] mdz: nop, seems to be a xorg/xkb issue === highvoltage [~Jono@george.kkhotels.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel === herzi [~herzi@c183159.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:25] mvo: what does the was-run bit do?

[12:28] mvo: yep [12:28] I was waiting on new version/Debian version [12:29] pitti: I think your kde-language packs should include the entry.desktop, flag.png and charset files used by KDE [12:30] pitti: but also if you do kde-config --path locale it comes out with /home/jr/.kde/share/locale/:/usr/share/locale/ [12:30] hm? desktop files in langpacks? [12:30] pitti: so I need to work out how to add /usr/share/locale-langpack to that path [12:30] Riddell: so /usr/share/locale-langpack needs to be added to that path? [12:30] ok [12:31] Riddell: can't this rather just use libc's gettext? [12:32] pitti: seems not, I think for historical reasons [12:32] hopefully KDE 4 will use gettext properly but I think back when this was written gettext didn't support everything needed [12:33] Riddell: did we reach a resolution on whether we need to upload another gettext package for kde? [12:33] mdz: nope, carlos was going to look into it after rosetta 1.0, which was going to be start of july as I mind [12:33] Riddell: is it blocking any of your work? [12:34] mdz: it's blocking KDE support in rosetta. I have plenty of other things to get on with [12:35] ok [12:36] seb128: is there a newer (not yet uploaded) version of gst-plugins0.8 which build-deps on libmpcdec? [12:36] the version in breezy doesn't seem to require it [12:36] mdz: yep, on my list for today, why? [12:36] seb128: ah, ok [12:36] seb128: because it has a main inclusion report [12:36] mdz: was waiting on the approval before uploading [12:36] pitti: the entry.desktop is needed to select the language through KDE Control Centre, works fine if you export LANG=foo but that's not very user friendly [12:37] Riddell: hm, but these desktop files should already be shipped somewhere, right? [12:37] pitti: they're in kde-i18n-xx [12:38] hrm [12:40] mdz : Now that we actually have people submitting sounds, I'll upload the packagy bits in the next couple of days. [12:41] fabbione: have you been in contact with the XenIntegration mentee? === `anthony [~anthony@220-253-38-151.VIC.netspace.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:42] smurfix, around? [12:43] mdz: yes.. i did send out pings to all the guys and received acknoledge from all of them. [12:43] fabbione: ok, please update the BreezyGoals entry accordingly [12:43] mdz: they will feed me with weekly status reports. [12:44] list the student as the responsible person and mark it as a google project [12:44] (there are examples already on the page) [12:44] hmm, the firefox logo in gnome-icon-theme needs to be fixed I think [12:44] mdz: will do [12:44] fabbione: thanks [12:44] no problem [12:44] why is mozilla-firefox.png shipped by about n different packages anyway? [12:45] infinity: is there something about the changes which makes them unsuitable until we have sounds? [12:45] Kamion: why? [12:45] I expect the process of gathering and refining the sounds will take some time yet [12:45] Kamion: what's wrong with the icon theme? [12:46] seb128: it's the Mozilla foundation logo rather than the de-branded globe [12:47] they can't ship it? [12:47] doko: regarding OpenOfficeLocalisation, the status says it depends on oo.o vs. oo.o2; I think we are essentially committed to v2 at this point [12:47] doko: what remains to be done? [12:47] seb128: the one in gnome-icon-theme is trademarked according to mozilla-firefox 0.8-6 changelog [12:47] and there seem to have been some problems with that [12:48] Kamion: hum, should I bug GNOME upstreams? [12:48] any pointer for them? [12:48] best check with thom, maybe [12:48] I think he knows the history [12:48] k [12:48] pitti: how is that locale-langpack directory added to gettext programmes locale path? [12:48] Riddell: a libc6 patch [12:49] mdke: yo [12:49] Riddell: I proposed to upstream to generalize that facility, but it was rejected [12:49] pitti: right. and what's the reason for using locale-langpack over just installing to locale? [12:49] Riddell: to avoid file conflicts with locally installed debs [12:49] smurfix, yo indeed. thanks for the email, we've been looking at smf, can you tell me which locoteams use it so we can see what it looks like in practice? [12:50] mdke: -fi and -ru [12:50] pitti: I was thinking yesterday about whether we could avoid stripping locales from .debs [12:51] smurfix, thanks [12:51] pitti: and do a delta from upstream translations->current translations instead of last-langpack->current translations [12:51] smurfix, -fi looks quite nice [12:51] pitti: depending on the activity level in rosetta and how quickly upstream integrates translations, it could be similar size [12:51] and would simplify things [12:52] and would be better for users [12:52] hm, worth thinking about that [12:52] atm if a package change the translation domain, the app goes to 0% translated [12:52] well, that doesn't happen in stable releases [12:53] no, but it happens with unstable [12:53] and translators need to have correct translations to work to translate the next version [12:54] hum, lot of "translat" on the same sentence :p [12:55] mdz: I think that would mean a bigger sum of package sizes (mo files in deb + delta langpacks), so we probably need to drop more langpacks from CD [12:55] pitti: you think? it seems non-obvious to me [12:55] mdz: i. e. if somebody in Rosetta fixes just one string, we would ship the same mo file twice [12:55] pitti: would it be a lot of work to calculate it? [12:56] mdz: well, calculating it requires the percentage of touched translations [12:56] YES YES YES!!!! [12:56] mdz: we currently can't ship a "diff mo", just complete mo files [12:56] Kamion: i just got the first automatically generated /boot out of p-a-l :D [12:56] pitti: right [12:57] mdz: so in the worst case the amount of shipped mo files doubles [12:57] but I think the percentage is relatively small at this point, right? [12:57] mdz: right now, yes [12:57] and I expect that in mature projects it would stabilize [12:57] mdz: but only because I don't yet pull translations from Rosetta === zeedo [~zeedo@www.reboot-robot.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:57] e.g., gnome will integrate new translations very quickly [12:57] mdz: right now I generate everything completely on my own from the stripped tarballs [12:58] when a new language is translated, it won't be upstream, and we still ship only one copy [12:58] right [12:58] pitti: right, but that should change in...3 days? [12:58] the exceptions are Ubuntu specific strings [12:58] mdz : Well, one of the major changes will involve pointing apps at what we would consider to be "sub-optimal" sounds, with the expectation that we'll get those files replaced with something more appriopriate in ubuntu-sounds before we ship. [12:58] but there aren't so many [12:58] mdz: wiki updated [12:58] mdz : Now that I'm fairly confident the latter will happen, I'm happy to go ahead with the former, to make sure it's all in place. [12:59] fabbione: thanks [12:59] mdz: yes, if it really changes in 3 days, then I have actual numbers for estimating the overhead [12:59] What is Oliver's nick? Ogra? [12:59] highvoltage: yes [01:00] pitti: do you perhaps have an idea when he'll be back home? [01:00] highvoltage: no, sorry [01:00] np [01:00] well, next week at latest [01:00] mdz: I calculate the diff when I get the first Rosetta updates, then we can evaluate that again. okay for you? [01:01] pitti: sounds good [01:01] mdz: just let me tell you that the latest Hoary tarball I got imported some 200 MB worth of new po files (uncompressed) [01:01] highvoltage: I would expect that he would be home already [01:02] mdz: okay. is he normally on irc most of the time, or not? [01:02] highvoltage: yes [01:02] his flight back was yesterday at about 2000 I think [01:02] mdz: thanks, i'll just come check a bit later. [01:06] mdz: so maybe I shall wait for another 3 days with uploading the split set of langpacks? [01:07] mdz: OO.o2 translation: I'm sending an update this afternoon, will CC you and update the wiki [01:08] seb128: why is it that the X server is started by gdm without -br now? [01:08] fabbione: cool :) [01:09] pitti: why, is the split affected by the rosetta exports? [01:10] mdz: no, but say we only upload diff packs, then we might not need the split any more [01:11] pitti: good point [01:11] mdz: I've dropped the change while switching the package to CDBS, I'll fix that with next upload [01:11] mdz: thanks for noticing [01:16] pitti: I'll do a gst-plugins0.8 upload, what audiosink do you want as default? [01:16] seb128: I think it should be esd for now [01:16] k [01:16] that'll work with both polypaudio and esd [01:17] seb128: does the polypaudio sink work for you now?

[01:57] does anybody know whether a sync is any more than just "upload the package from Debian to Ubuntu"? [01:58] pitti: the issue is that you can't upload the Debian version to ubuntu, you need to update the changelog and then have to sync for next upload [01:58] which is not optimal [01:58] seb128: ah, right [01:59] seb128: so upload -0ubunt1 :-) [01:59] sucking [01:59] that should be autosynced over on the next occation [01:59] I want a sync [01:59] and I want e-d-s accepted to new break evo [02:00] s/new/not/ === seb128 declares lunch time [02:01] ah good [02:01] seb128: I can do the e-d-s -> main thing [02:01] seb128: I don't know the runes for doing syncs, though [02:01] Kamion: can you also accept NEW packages?

[06:51] -M Places the ssh client into master mode for connection [06:51] sharing. Refer to the description of ControlMaster in [06:51] ssh_config(5) for details. [06:52] interesting [06:52] I don't think that will do what I want, though [06:52] the actual connection sharing stuff is unnecessary here, but you can use it to provide you with a mechanism to control a running client [06:52] that would only let me control the running client from the local end of the connection, no? [06:53] I could just as easily kill it there, but I can't reliably know when to do that [06:53] which is why I set about looking for a way to do it on the remote end [06:53] oh, I see [06:54] kill -1 $PPID isn't all that evil [06:54] I didn't think ssh started a shell by default for the command [06:54] but doesn't the remote end already know when the command has exited? [06:54] yes [06:54] for example the command could write a line to a FIFO when it's done [06:55] oh, never mind me [06:55] I think ssh host '; kill -1 $PPID' will do the trick, testing [06:56] would it be good enough to be able to tell ssh not to wait for forwarded connections to close? [06:56] well, yes [06:56] that's what I really want [06:56] (which is a more generic long-standing wishlist) [06:56] that seemed like a harder battle to fight [06:56] Eclipse ---> Universe? :) [06:58] Jul 04 02:12:26 mdz elmo: is it possible/reasonable to move things from multiverse to universe via teri, or should I ask you instead?

[09:24] No. It's sort of something I need to think about more. [09:24] it's not a real problem, but I'm used to work with ~/workspace. just a habit [09:24] Eclipse tries to put hte workspace in the current directory. [09:25] ah, ic [09:25] And I cd into .eclipse before launching it. [09:25] And I don't like ~/workspace since it's ambiguous.
