tvoRiddell: you interested in a chat I had on #bksys about rpath?12:23
Riddelltvo: sure12:23
tvoRiddell: http://rafb.net/paste/results/SF0xLb84.html  didn't get the formatting right though12:26
=== tvo is still looking for a better copy option in xchat. and btw:
=== tvo succesfully created a .dsc, .deb .orig.tar.gz and .diff.gz :)
tvobtw, should I gpg sign my package?12:29
Riddelltvo: yeah sign it is good practice12:30
RiddellI should look into what rpath is :)12:31
tvok have to set up some keys and look into that too :)12:31
tvoyou read the chat?12:31
Riddellyes, interesting chat12:31
tvoso, either I'm going to release the tarball with rpath and the debian packages without,12:32
tvoor I find some better info :)12:32
Riddelltvo: the .orig should be the same in both cases12:35
tvoyeah in that case the removal of rpath would go in the diff12:36

tvo62,400 rpath issues on google :)12:53
tvoanyway, there doesn't seem to be a right track: ~150,000 (add OR enable) rpath, almost same number (remove OR erase) rpath12:56

tvoRiddell: which expression(s) did you try?12:31
Riddelltvo: random .*12:36
tvoI think I understand, it's just a way too old regexp format12:36

tvoI don't know if we have it, but it would be fairly easy to link .debs to a graphical program which does dpkg -i with a progess bar I think..02:34
OculusAquilaebut it should install the deps via apt-get, too, shouldn't it02:35

fromozeRiddell: I just remember the main problem I find in kubuntu: Why kget isn't in the default instalation??? 06:03
Riddellah yes06:03
Riddellwell mainly because it's got a complex user interface which is inconsistent with file transfers that happen not to use kget06:04
Riddellplus it has messy defaults, adding an extra button to konqueror, that weird drop target thing and big popup messages "do you want to use this with konqueror"06:05
Riddellwhich put me off it06:05
fromozeRiddell: I see, good arguments :)06:05
Riddellbut maybe I should give it another shot06:06
Riddellwhat else did that mailing list post ask for?06:06
fromozeCan I copy them to comment on my blog? I make a very bad post about the fault of kget xD06:06
Sonerashi there06:10
Riddellfromoze: sure, where's your blog?06:11
SonerasRiddell: about KGet. I know what you mean, but the drop target thing isn't there by default. maybe the additional (web-only) toolbar button can be removed as well?06:11
fromozeRiddell: Is in spanish xD06:12
Riddelloh, opening in new tabs instead of new windows was the defualt06:12
Riddellkonqueror should come to forground when opening a new tab06:12
fromozeRiddell: now is fromoze.blogspot.com... but i talk about kget on my old livejournal. The interesting link is www.augcyl.org/planet ;)06:13
Riddellfromoze: what is augcyl?06:15
fromozeRiddell: Asociacin de Usuarios de Gnu de Castilla y Len - A lug :)06:16
fromozewell a Lug's association..06:16
SonerasRiddel, did you read that (lenghty) eMail of mine (Suggestions for two KubuntuDefaults)? If so, was the 'issue' about everything opening in the same window as a tab understandable?06:17
RiddellSoneras: ah, that was you :)06:17
RiddellSoneras: yes, understandable06:18
Sonerasit was me :)06:18
=== Soneras ducks
RiddellSoneras: the trouble is that the other way you end up with lots and lots of konqueror windows which gets in the way (like spacial browsing)06:18
Riddellin breezy the defaults are set for downloads/file transfers to be in only one window, which is quite neat.  but I guess doesn't have the features of kget (it should damnit)06:19
Sonerasdoes it have resume (which I suppose is the most important one)06:20
RiddellSoneras: it does not06:20
Sonerasoh hmm. still worked on I guess :)06:20
Riddellkget features like resume should be part of kioslaves06:21
Riddellthen it would all be nice and slick06:21
Sonerasyeah, at times it'd be usefull locally as well. although I really don't mind kget I have to admit06:21
Riddellgah, kget takes up more room in system tray06:24
Sonerasoh. that's true06:24
Sonerasmakes for less open windows though.06:25
Riddelland if I pause my download it disappears06:25
Sonerasbut well, I'll not try to convince you of anything here ;)06:25
Sonerasabout the other thing though (tabs instead of windows)...06:26
Soneraswith spatial browsing you get a new window every time you open a folder... that's a lot of mess, I agree. but it's not like that in kde. 06:26
=== Riddell likes it when people try to convince him of things
=== Soneras will try on that one...
Sonerasusers only get a new window when they specifically open a new icon, outside the current konqueror window. 06:27
Sonerasso, errrm, when they want a second window they click "home" again - and can interact with both windows (copy'n'paste and the like) 06:27
seth_kbtw Riddell, re OpenOffice / KOffice, OpenOffice includes drawing and database programs.06:27
seth_kso no fair citing that as a KOffice advantage :P06:27
Riddellseth_k: drawing is not bitmap?06:27
Riddelland database doesn't work (needs java)06:27
Sonerasdoes that sound reasonable? I have had to explain most people I gave kubuntu how to open more windows (instead of tabs)06:28
seth_kah, well played06:28

=== Mez just closed over half of the ciritcal malone bugs
uniqgenerally i like to do things the KDE way. but amarok is a bitch. they should fix the arts engine :)06:38
pefRiddell: I think kdelibs4-dev is broken :(06:38
uniqpef: it's not kde, it's X.06:39
Riddelluniq: nope, KDE should remove arts :)06:39

pefRiddell: http://rafb.net/paste/results/TjgslV45.html06:39

uniqKDE needs a soundserver to run on other operating systems. can't focus too much on alsa.06:40
pefRiddell: It begin hard to build packages now :] 06:41
uniqpef: you can install kdelibs4-dev with: 'apt-get install kdelibs4-dev libopenexr-dev libqt3-mt-dev'06:41
pefuniq: thanks ;)06:43
uniqthe libXrender issue is nice too.06:44
peffor a new program, like kvpnc-0.7.2-2, the correct version for ubuntu is 0.7.2-2-0ubuntu1 right ?06:48
uniqkvpnc-0.7.2-2ubuntu106:49
Riddellpef: does the -2 come from debian or from kvpnc?06:50
pefdebian06:51
Riddellas uniq says then06:52
pefand for a revision like 8.4 it will be 8.4-0ubuntu1 correct ?06:53
Riddellyes06:54
Riddellthe -0 means it doesn't have a debian verion yet06:54

Sonerasor is there already a kasablanca package I missed?07:55

Sonerasbtw, Riddell, I had another question before: will there be a bootsplash and a grub menu background for kubuntu in breezy?07:57
Sonerasand if so, is there already beeing worked on? (on the artwork)07:58
RiddellSoneras: I suspect not, poke sladen07:58

tvoRiddell: you happen to know the reason uniq had for not including scons-mini in old kio-locate?08:09

Riddelldoesn't build-dep on scons mean it isn't needed?08:10
tvowell, ita (author of bksys) is trying to persuade me to include it because:08:10

RiddellSoneras: Bookmarks->Add in konqueror, should that dialogue appear or not10:10
SonerasRiddell: Sorry, still not sure what this means - adding bookmarks in Konqueror should be possible, but I suppose that's not the point. nevermind though, I'm sure somebody else knows about this and can give more educated feedback.10:14
\shthink Imessed up now everything10:19
\shwhich package installs /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/* ? i don't have it...and xfonts-base is wrong10:20

RiddellSoneras: when you add a bookmark in konqueror a dialogue box appears, but it can also be set so the dialogue box doesn't appear and the bookmark is just added.  which do you prefer?10:21
Riddell\sh: xfonts-75dpi has some10:23
\shmkfontdir not found.10:24
SonerasRiddell: Ah ok. Personally I prefer it with the dialog - can change the name directly, but I see the advantage (a lot faster, and 80% correct names) of not having a dialog as well.10:24

tvoRiddell: a Q about python build-depend: do I need to specify an upper limit for the version?11:09
Riddelltvo: yeah probably good practice, python <= 2.5 or the like11:10
Riddelltvo: what python are you playing with?11:10
tvoRiddell: i'm changing the build to use scons-mini11:10
tvoscons-mini is python, so I need to specify python build-depend instead of scons11:10
Riddelltvo: you might want to put that ony our wiki page (for people googling for scons debian packaging etc)11:11
Riddellon your11:11
tvoI was told the << 2.5 which is used for scons for example is because the python script gets compiled into bytecode11:11
Riddellcompiling to bytecode should be done at install time no?11:12
tvobut I reasoned this wouldn't matter in my case because it's a build depend and no python byte code is supposed to get in the deb11:12
tvoyep11:12
Riddelloh, build-depend, wouldn't both then11:12
tvomaybe I can find another app which uses a python build script..11:13
tvohmm I don't know how to search for packages with certain build-deps so i'll leave it for now I think11:17
Riddellit's not too important I suspect :)11:20
tvoRiddell: does it matter if I didn't do a thing with .po files for now?11:21
tvoand .pot11:21
tvoif it doesn't matter too much the package is finally finished i think :)11:21
Riddelltvo: you should create .pot files somewhere along the lines, but you can't do that in the build script just now since we don't have the kde gettext in the archive11:23
tvoRiddell: yeah, I understood something like that, but question is more: does it matter if I distribute a package with heavily outdated .pot files?11:24
Riddelltvo: it doesn't matter no, unless they get picked up by a translator who uses them11:25
