| daniels | in theory, yes | 01:52 |
| daniels | in reality, you need to work out exactly *how* | 01:52 |
| mjg59 | Gnobody: Yes. But not if you want suspend/resume support. | 01:52 |
| daniels | the logic for this is too complex to put into a tiny image-displayer | 01:52 |

| mdke | malone? | 01:55 |
| infinity | tseng : Yes, but I have no satisfactory answer for you yet. I'll look harder in a bit. | 01:56 |
| jp_ | can somebody update to th new sticky notes? it rocks :) | 01:56 |
| infinity | tseng : How on earth that tool segfaults at all is a bit of a mystery, though. Seems rather fragile. | 01:56 |
| tseng | infinity: thanks. it breaks other packages | 01:56 |
| tseng | eh it doesnt segfault in my chroot | 01:56 |
| tseng | or on the other buildd's | 01:57 |
| infinity | By "other", you mean "other non-i386", right? | 01:57 |
| tseng | yes, but my pbuilder is x86 | 01:57 |
| infinity | It does die on all 3 i386 buildds the same. | 01:57 |
| tseng | so, whats the difference between pbuilder and sbuild chroot | 01:57 |
| infinity | I can grab you a list of installed packages. | 01:58 |
| elmo | eh, pbuilder vs. sbuilder isn't going to cause a segfault | 01:58 |
| tseng | elmo: exactly. | 01:58 |
| elmo | it's far more likely to be what's installed/not installed, versions or the kernel | 01:58 |
| tseng | *baffle* | 01:58 |
| elmo | tseng: that's hardly the only difference | 01:58 |

| infinity | Riddell : If the build-deps weren't strict enough, please make them stricter (for the benefit of bootstrapping) and reupload. | 03:03 |
| Riddell | infinity: not sure, I did have quite strict build deps because lamont was looking over my sholder, but could well have missed one | 03:03 |

| bddebian | Anyone know why zeiberbude wouldn't be able to find -lqt ? | 05:12 |
| zwnj | i cannot build source packages with dpkg-deb -b. any introdustoin/howto? | 05:14 |
| bddebian | Use debuild or dpkg-buildpackage? :-) | 05:15 |
| zwnj | bddebian: uhu, thanks | 05:16 |
| zwnj | i'm new to ubuntu/debian. i used to use redhat/fedora for 5 years... but no deb-based distro | 05:17 |
| bddebian | Ah, well welcome | 05:17 |
| bddebian | Sorry to hear about those 5 years of wasting your life. ;-) | 05:17 |
| daniels | bddebian: because -lqt has been deprecated for years | 05:18 |
| bddebian | daniels: What is it now? -lqtthreads? | 05:18 |
| daniels | try apt-cache search | 05:19 |
| bddebian | Search for what? | 05:19 |
| daniels | libqt, maybe? | 05:20 |
| zwnj | bddebian: ;) | 05:20 |
| bddebian | I realize that it is libqt3 now but you can't do -lqt3 can you? | 05:21 |
| daniels | no, you can't. keep didding. | 05:21 |
| daniels | digging, also. | 05:21 |
| zwnj | bddebian: btw, i just started to read Redhat RPM Guide and dpkg's manuales to build packages... of course i try to build my RPMs on ubuntu ;) | 05:21 |
| bddebian | zwnj: Are you building for others or yourself? If you just want to install, try alien | 05:22 |
| zwnj | bddebian: we develop some Persian localized utils, and i want package them in rpm and deb for Iranian users | 05:23 |
| bddebian | Ah, cool | 05:23 |
| zwnj | bddebian: just got familiar with alien yesterday... | 05:24 |
| bddebian | daniels: Well my only options in /usr/lib are libqtthreads and libqt-mt. Am I going about this the wrong way? | 05:24 |
| zwnj | is anyone here familiar with gedit's plugin system? who is the package manager of gnome stuff? | 05:25 |
| bddebian | zwnj: In Ubuntu, there is a Gnome team I believe. As I understand Ubuntu, there is no 1 maintainer for a particular package | 05:26 |
| bddebian | But don't quote me, I'm learning too :-) | 05:26 |
| zwnj | i want to know how i should package a gedit plugin... because it's build system for plugins is a little complicated | 05:28 |
| zwnj | is anyone from gnome team here right now? | 05:28 |
| bddebian | daniels: -lqt is single threaded but all the build depends use libqt-mt. Why would they link against the single threaded version? | 05:30 |
| daniels | bddebian: exactly | 05:36 |
| bddebian | Will I cause a problem if I use -lqt-mt ? | 05:36 |

| fabbione | hey pitti | 07:20 |
| pitti | Good morning fabbione | 07:20 |
| fabbione | pitti: before you start the firefox mess, should we review a few things? | 07:22 |
| pitti | sure | 07:22 |
| fabbione | pitti: perfect | 07:22 |
| fabbione | let's start with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionReportRhCluster | 07:22 |
| fabbione | point 1) the entire suite is in main/universe | 07:23 |
| pitti | neat | 07:23 |
| === Revelation [~angryce@62.128.240.78] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| fabbione | the libdlm transition for clvm (universe, source lvm2) has been done right away | 07:23 |
| fabbione | 4) there is a also a GUI now. | 07:24 |
| fabbione | Regarding QA the upstream situation has been changing a lot | 07:24 |
| fabbione | they did clean up their mess | 07:24 |
| fabbione | in terms of how they use CVS | 07:24 |
| fabbione | and tons of bug fixes made it to the STABLE branch | 07:24 |
| === zwnj [~behnam@81.31.160.199] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | what's the package name again? | 07:24 |
| fabbione | redhat-cluster-suite (source and meta) | 07:25 |
| fabbione | now it's also possible to compile modules for custom kernels + we provide them by default | 07:25 |
| fabbione | pitti: as you can see from their bugzilla all the CRI bugs have been addresses | 07:26 |
| fabbione | addressed | 07:26 |
| pitti | looks really good | 07:27 |
| pitti | GUI is sensible? | 07:27 |
| fabbione | so even if you already approved it, i am going to ask for official inclusion in main and see the packages | 07:27 |
| fabbione | pitti: yup and it works very well | 07:27 |
| pitti | cool | 07:27 |
| fabbione | pitti: all our packages have been tested by upstream | 07:27 |
| fabbione | <pjc> they worked beautifully | 07:28 |
| fabbione | <pjc> the meta-package was great. Fedora should have something like that | 07:28 |
| fabbione | one of the upstream comments testing on ppc :) | 07:28 |
| fabbione | (oh and they fixed the config file permission problem rigth away ;)) | 07:30 |

| fabbione | pitti: what wireless? | 07:38 |

| sivang | (the one I see you too are so hard working at :-) ) | 07:46 |
| Mithrandir | argh | 07:46 |
| fabbione | sivang: you want to talk with me about that | 07:46 |
| sivang | fabbione: ah , ok , basically everything is borrowed from fedora / RH (I recall you told me they wrot the GUI control tool) | 07:47 |
| fabbione | sivang: RH.. | 07:49 |
| fabbione | fedora is no upstream | 07:49 |
| fabbione | yes.. they wrote a gui that is already in universe | 07:49 |
| fabbione | pitti: speaking of which.. we should move the GUI to main to | 07:50 |
| fabbione | pitti: it's written in python.. | 07:50 |
| pitti | fabbione: right, the packages are fine and I already approved the stuff | 07:50 |

| fabbione | sivang: yes i know. i need to upload a new kernel or you need to rebuild the cluster modules | 08:06 |
| sivang | fabbione: ah well, it's no rush , I will try install it when you finish :-) | 08:08 |

| sivang | fabbione: Does it use the mosix kernel for grid computing, or is a cluster something different? :) | 08:32 |
| fabbione | sivang: it's a HA cluster. mosix is high performance | 08:32 |
| fabbione | they are 2 different implementation | 08:32 |
| fabbione | the RH cluster aims for High Availability (HA) | 08:33 |
| sivang | fabbione: so basically, it replecates one node to the other, to be able to respond even if some of them break? | 08:33 |
| Treenaks | sivang: basically, yes | 08:34 |
| fabbione | sivang: not really.. | 08:34 |
| Treenaks | no? | 08:34 |
| Treenaks | isn't the goal of HA basically "Little or no downtime and/or corruption" | 08:34 |
| fabbione | HA does not replace.. it switches services across the nodes so that service foo is always available | 08:34 |
| fabbione | Treenaks: yes, but it doesn't replicate the nodes | 08:35 |
| fabbione | or replace them | 08:35 |
| fabbione | the work is done at service level | 08:35 |
| Treenaks | fabbione: no, the nodes should do that themselves | 08:35 |
| fabbione | Treenaks: ?????? | 08:35 |
| === teo [~teo@19.Red-80-59-20.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| fabbione | the HA cluster takes care of migrating services from a failed node to a working one | 08:36 |
| Treenaks | fabbione: well, what you said.. the different services shuold take care of replication, some other piece of magic takes care of the failover | 08:36 |
| === wbniv [~wbniv@red-corp-201.130.130.10.telnor.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Konversation] | ||
| fabbione | Treenaks: exactly.. replication is something different | 08:36 |
| sivang | fabbione: that's interesting, so we basically have autonomic nodes (as each one is a seperate box) which all run the same services, and there a kind of a "switchboard" to find open slots per services (on each machine) and delegates the request there? | 08:37 |
| === carlospc [~carlospc@36.Red-217-125-73.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| fabbione | sivang: no, that's a load balancer | 08:37 |
| fabbione | sivang: let say you need service foo (apache for example) | 08:37 |
| fabbione | to be always up 100% of the time | 08:37 |
| fabbione | node A and node B ( just to keep it simple ) | 08:38 |
| fabbione | the HA cluster will make a fake node C, masking A and B | 08:38 |
| fabbione | (sort of) | 08:38 |
| fabbione | so if apache is running on node A and node A fails, the service will automatically be switched to B | 08:39 |
| fabbione | without you even noticing | 08:39 |
| fabbione | this is a very SIMPLE example | 08:39 |
| Treenaks | even in the middle of a request? | 08:39 |
| fabbione | but there are tons of consideration behind doing something like that | 08:39 |
| fabbione | Treenaks: no, that's too apps specific | 08:39 |
| fabbione | but: | 08:40 |
| fabbione | a) you don't lose the service | 08:40 |
| fabbione | b) a shared cluster FS will not lose consistency | 08:40 |
| fabbione | so even if effectly you lose one transaction in the middle of the switch.. | 08:40 |
| fabbione | you don't lose the service | 08:41 |
| sivang | fabbione: and data is consistent due to (b) | 08:41 |
| fabbione | sivang: exactly | 08:41 |
| sivang | wow, cool | 08:41 |
| fabbione | but you need a shared storage device between the 2 node | 08:41 |
| fabbione | using local disk is pointless in a cluster :) | 08:42 |
| \sh | emc is overload but a netapp is nice for those things | 08:43 |
| \sh | good morning btw | 08:43 |
| sivang | you can just as well build a custom shared storage with linux, there a howto somewhere (can't recall where) | 08:46 |
| sivang | pitti: do you recall by heart the env vars that dch and other pkging tools use? i.e. for maintainer name and email, etc | 08:48 |
| pitti | sivang: DEBEMAIL="Sivan Green <sivan@green>" | 08:48 |
| fabbione | sivang: well in a cluster enviroment you try to use good hw ... | 08:48 |
| fabbione | sivang: like a redundant shared device | 08:48 |
| fabbione | and stuff like that | 08:49 |

| carlospc | Hello everybody, have you read in ubuntu-devel list the thread "GNOME panel and sudo"? I would like to know if this funcionality will be implemented | 09:00 |
| Burgundavia | carlospc, it is a google bounty and thus is quite likely | 09:01 |
| carlospc | Maybe i could help, does anyone knows if it's a goal? if so, how it's called? | 09:01 |
| sivang | pitti: is it ok to create patches with diff (talking about the configure patches) manually, and then concantate them into the one file debian/patch together with the code? | 09:01 |
| carlospc | Ouh, thanks Burgundavia | 09:01 |
| pitti | sivang: why not use something sensible like dbs-edit-patch or cdbs-edit-patch? | 09:01 |

| carlospc | Thanks in advance | 09:02 |
| sivang | pitti: hmm, since I want to avoid cdbs's diff against all file in the source dir, to avoid autofu trails from the other files created by it | 09:03 |
| pitti | sivang: just don't use autoreconf, use automake/autoconf manually | 09:03 |
| sivang | pitti: inside the cdbs-edit-patch "chroot" ? | 09:05 |
| pitti | sivang: it's not a chroot, but yes | 09:05 |
| sivang | pitti: how would you define it? :-) | 09:05 |
| pitti | sivang: it's pushd, nothing more | 09:05 |

| pitti | davyd: but you do have gstreamer plugins installed? (or, rather, didn't uninstall at least the ogg vorbis one) | 10:07 |
| Burgundavia | guys, this discussion belongs on #ubuntu | 10:07 |
| fabbione | trs80: i/o wait is highly dependend on what your box is doing.. it might as well be very normal | 10:07 |
| davyd | pitti: good call | 10:08 |
| pitti | davyd: gstreamer0.8-mad already helps a lot | 10:08 |
| trs80 | fabbione: it's just serving mail, dns, mailman etc. actual cpu usage is 1% or so | 10:09 |
| davyd | pitti: yeah | 10:09 |
| === davyd wonders if he should --get-selections off his old machine for this one | ||
| fabbione | trs80: mail* is an I/O bottleneck... | 10:09 |
| fabbione | trs80: CPU usage != i/o wait | 10:10 |
| fabbione | or better.. that becomes true if there is no DMA | 10:10 |
| trs80 | yeah, but a dual p3 733 was handling the same load faster | 10:10 |
| trs80 | the disks are sata | 10:10 |
| fabbione | exactly | 10:10 |
| trs80 | ? | 10:10 |
| fabbione | sata "has" DMA | 10:11 |
| fabbione | so that's not the problem | 10:11 |
| trs80 | yeah | 10:12 |
| fabbione | trs80: i would monitor /proc/interrupts and see if there is a device that is sucking IRQ | 10:12 |
| fabbione | and stalling I/O | 10:12 |
| fabbione | if that's the case try to boot with irqpoll | 10:12 |
| fabbione | boot option i mean | 10:12 |

| davyd | (on i386) | 10:14 |
| trs80 | 200-400 libata int/s | 10:15 |
| fabbione | trs80: you need to check it for a long time... | 10:15 |
| fabbione | not just in a 10 minutes phase | 10:15 |
| fabbione | there might be processes that reises the I/O load | 10:15 |
| fabbione | and not always running | 10:15 |
| trs80 | what's LOC in interrupts? | 10:15 |
| === trs80 leaves vmstat running | ||
| trs80 | fabbione: I have things like 3 kjournald sitting in the D state | 10:20 |
| trs80 | yeah, things are just sitting there, waiting for IO, not actually doing anything | 10:21 |
| trs80 | the disks are barely pushing a few MB/s | 10:22 |
| fabbione | what FS? | 10:25 |
| trs80 | ext3 | 10:25 |
| fabbione | did you say warty + 2.6.10 ???? | 10:26 |
| trs80 | hoary | 10:26 |
| trs80 | whatever 5.04 is, I always get the names mixed up | 10:26 |
| fabbione | ok | 10:26 |
| fabbione | trs80: if you the option i would try to boot with irqpoll | 10:27 |
| fabbione | not sure it will make any difference | 10:27 |
| fabbione | but it's defenitily worth a try | 10:27 |
| === trs80 ponders 2.6.12 | ||

| seb128 | and it seems to not like the special char | 11:57 |
| Amaranth | d'oh | 11:57 |
| Amaranth | i have a feeling it's a pyxdg bug | 11:57 |
| seb128 | that's fine with a C locale | 11:58 |
| Amaranth | if you don't have <Layout> defined the menus are supposed to be sorted alphabetically | 11:58 |
| seb128 | Amaranth: anyway, where do you want bugs... should I create a bugzilla.ubuntu.com smeg entry and assign bugs for it to you? :) | 11:58 |
| Amaranth | i'm guessing it's sorting ducation last and then do you something to make pyxdg create a <Layout> it gets stuck there | 11:58 |
| Amaranth | not my bug | 11:58 |
| Amaranth | file a bug on the fd.o bugzilla against pyxdg | 11:59 |
| seb128 | Amaranth: I've moved ~/.config/applications.menu away, I run smeg and ducation is at the bottom | 11:59 |
| Amaranth | although the dev won't be back for another 3 or so weeks | 11:59 |
| seb128 | Amaranth: you are no upstream for pyxdg too? :) | 11:59 |
| Amaranth | no | 11:59 |
| seb128 | ups, I thought | 11:59 |
| Amaranth | you're the one who told me to use pyxdg :P | 11:59 |
| seb128 | you said "we are going to get a new version", etc | 11:59 |
| Amaranth | yeah, we work together | 12:00 |
| Amaranth | usually a pyxdg release comes out the same time a smeg release does | 12:00 |
| seb128 | yeah, but some weeks after you were using "we" for pyxdg, so I assume you became an upstream :p | 12:00 |

| carstenh | ogra: yes, it will be in /etc/network/if-{up,down}.d/ | 02:13 |
| ogra | carstenh, do you write something new ? or do you adjust the firestarter stuff ? | 02:13 |
| carstenh | ogra: and a gui to easily configure the firewall | 02:13 |
| carstenh | ogra: something new, integrating firestarter in ubuntu the way we do it would be very hard | 02:14 |
| retrix | ogra, carstenh, i could possibly manage that | 02:14 |
| retrix | carstenh, how involved do you imagine the configuration options would be? | 02:14 |
| ogra | there is no special framework, but if you need someone to write a gui probably retrix is your guy, the ndiswrapper gui he wrote is nearly in shape so there might be time for more :) | 02:14 |

| carstenh | ogra: ... and ubuntu projects are normally written in python | 02:19 |

| carstenh | ... of couse it would be possible to disable it i.e. with vi /etc/default/firewall or the gui | 02:21 |
| pitti | carstenh: sure, if the default policy is sane (which it should anyway), it should just work | 02:22 |
| Nafallo | ++ on that one :-) | 02:23 |
| pitti | \sh: it's not the apache string, the web site advertises "powered by ubuntu" | 02:23 |
| === Nafallo reads the wikipage | ||
| carstenh | pitti: it will be sane, but only services that provide rules would be able to listen to the network. if a use installs something without using the package-system it would be blocked | 02:24 |

| pitti | carstenh: I guess we can still disable it last-minute if we don't manage to create rules for all servers? | 02:25 |

| carstenh | i guess a missing rule is some kind of important bug, so it should be fixable even later | 02:27 |
| Nafallo | ogra: I would prefer an "advanced" button. you should not have to use the registry ;-). | 02:30 |
| ogra | Nafallo, its not a registry, its the place where advanced options have to go to not clutter the GUI and make it ugly | 02:30 |
| mdke | gconf is totally similar to a registry | 02:31 |
| mdke | IMO | 02:31 |
| ogra | not at all | 02:31 |
| Treenaks | gconf != debconf :) | 02:31 |
| Nafallo | ogra: IMO it looks more like winreg than anything else I've ever seen in linux ;-) | 02:31 |
| mdke | from a user perspective | 02:31 |
| ogra | the windows registry is a havoc... | 02:31 |
| Nafallo | or regedit rather | 02:31 |

| Treenaks | ogra: no, Havoc wrote gconf (right?) | 02:31 |
| ogra | hehe | 02:31 |
| mdke | ogra, naturally it is not as bad, but it has a similar feel for the user | 02:32 |
| === ogra likes this wordgame everytime | ||
| mdke | it is totally un-user-friendly | 02:32 |
| ogra | mdke, thats why its for advanced users that need advanced options... | 02:32 |
| azeem | mdke: normal user shouldn't need to use it, anyway | 02:32 |
| mdke | that is debateable | 02:33 |
| Nafallo | anyway. with an advanced tab to override serviceports and the like you could actually run your apache2 as localhost only if you would want to. | 02:33 |
| mdke | but i don't really think its that good for advanced users either | 02:33 |
| jdub | ogra: that's not what gconf is for | 02:33 |
| ogra | jdub, so explain it to us then :) | 02:33 |
| jdub | mdke: gconf is for *programmers*; it is an api and infrastructure for handling configuration metadata, including policy (mandatory/default settings) | 02:34 |
| mdke | jdub, sometimes users edit gconf to change settings which do not appear in the gui, right? | 02:34 |
| jdub | mdke: gconf-editor, the raw front end, is not intended to be used by regular users | 02:34 |
| jdub | only very particular kinds of users | 02:35 |
| ogra | jdub, how do i set burnproof for n-c-b then ? | 02:35 |
| carstenh | pitti: what about logging _spoofed_ packets, sould it be possible? | 02:35 |
| jdub | ogra: hrm? | 02:35 |
| ogra | jdub, without using gconf-editor as a advanced settings tool | 02:35 |
| jdub | ogra: it's not designed to be an "advanced settings tool" | 02:36 |
| pitti | carstenh: unintrusively, yes. some syslog | 02:36 |
| azeem | ogra: just edit the XML data in ~/.gconf with vi | 02:36 |
| mdke | jdub, yes I mean gconf-editor the frontend. the discussion was about whether settings should be ommitted from a gui preferences tool because they can be accessed there. My view was "no" | 02:36 |
| ogra | jdub, burnproof is off by default, n-c-b has no option to enable it, gconf is the only way... there are many apps that use it this way | 02:36 |
| bob2 | hah, nearly raster | 02:36 |
| jdub | i don't know what burnproof is, or what the use cases for it are, so i can't answer that | 02:36 |
| Nafallo | ogra: that's a bug then | 02:36 |
| jdub | azeem: those files are not meant to be modified directly | 02:37 |
| ogra | jdub, a important CD burning setting you need to burn on underpowered machines | 02:37 |
| carstenh | pitti: ok, so i have to add spoofing rules... using /proc/... iirc does not support logging | 02:37 |
| Nafallo | jdub: make cd-rws detect what maximum speed to use on the fly (or something like that) | 02:37 |
| bob2 | burnproof = not get buffer underruns, even when the cpu is hammered | 02:37 |
| Nafallo | s/rw/r/ | 02:37 |
| ogra | Nafallo, nope | 02:37 |
| jdub | mdke: the presence of gconf-editor is not related to the choice to make things 'just work' or the requirement for a preference | 02:37 |
| azeem | Nafallo: no, it just stops the laser when there is a buffer-underrun and restarts when the buffer has been refilled | 02:37 |
| ogra | Nafallo, it cares for buffer underruns while burning | 02:38 |
| mdke | jdub, that is also my view | 02:38 |
| azeem | Mr. Schilling argues that it does make 1:1 copies, so you have to forcibly enabled it in cdrecord | 02:38 |
| mdke | the point i was making | 02:38 |
| azeem | eh, s/does/does not/ | 02:38 |

| mdke | seb128, what is l10n list? | 02:40 |
| jdub | it sounds like the feature exists in n-c-b, but there has been no decision to make it 'just work' or put in a pref | 02:40 |
| azeem | does n-c-b still use cdrecord, or rather libburn these days? (and are those two really independent?) | 02:40 |
| bob2 | mdke: localisation | 02:40 |
| ogra | azeem, still cdrecord | 02:40 |
| jdub | seb128: going to do it tonight; standard will be ubuntu-<lang>-l10n | 02:40 |
| seb128 | mdke: a list to coordinate translators work | 02:40 |
| ogra | azeem, and yes, they are independent | 02:40 |
| seb128 | jdub: THANKS :) | 02:40 |
| mdke | seb128, different to ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com? | 02:41 |
| seb128 | mdke: I want a french list for french translators | 02:41 |
| mdke | ah cool | 02:41 |
| mdke | nice idea | 02:41 |
| seb128 | mdke: to coordinate french translations | 02:41 |
| mdke | we've been doing ours on freelists.org | 02:41 |
| ogra | jdub, i think its a HAL thing... the newer versions should be able to detect if burnproof is possible... | 02:41 |
| jdub | seb128: i'll make you the owner for now, and you can help them sort out owner/admin stuff :) | 02:41 |
| jdub | ogra: sounds about right :-) | 02:41 |
| Nafallo | jdub: could we have one for sweden to? I try to get those guys started to make some decisions on coordination. I haven't got an answer yet. | 02:42 |
| ogra | yep :) | 02:42 |
| seb128 | jdub: k, I'm getting used to be set as owner for the lists :p | 02:42 |
| jdub | ogra: so in the mean time, defaulting to off and not bothering with tweaky bits in the ui is the right idea | 02:42 |
| jdub | Nafallo: i generally only create lists based on clear demand :) | 02:42 |
| === kafeine [~kori@212.39.73.142] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | jdub, ok... it was just my example.... we were talking about advanced options for a default enabled firewall originally ;) | 02:43 |
| jdub | seb128: should get an email in a minute | 02:43 |
| Nafallo | jdub: good point. I will probably send them another mail soon, and then go with "I took the silence as yes" to put me as coordinator ;-). anyway, that's nothing that can't be undone. | 02:45 |
| jdub | Nafallo: is this for translation team stuff, or loco team stuff? | 02:46 |
| Nafallo | jdub: translation | 02:46 |
| jdub | Nafallo: and there's too much traffic on the loco team list for it? | 02:47 |
| === mantass [~Mantas@193.219.181.179] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Nafallo | jdub: we don't have a loco for sweden that I'm aware of. | 02:47 |
| mdke | jdub, if you intent this sort of list to become standard, we can think about moving ubuntu-l10n-it from freelists.org to lists.ubuntu.com. The list is used to coordinate the whole italian documentation team, regarding both rosetta and the wiki work | 02:47 |
| mdke | intent/intend | 02:47 |
| jdub | mdke: yeah, if there are others out there, we should pull them in | 02:47 |
| mdke | jdub, okay, will you sort it? I can get the archive | 02:48 |
| jdub | Nafallo: hrm, had odd memory of an se list -> anyway, that's the first step, creating a loco team, then we can split off an l10n list later if required | 02:48 |
| mdke | but we use the list for all documentation rather than just rosetta translation | 02:48 |
| jdub | mmm, i was thinking of making them ubuntu-<lang>-dev, but... meh | 02:49 |
| jdub | l10n covers what that development would be, so | 02:49 |
| highvoltage | elmo | 02:49 |
| Nafallo | jdub: I disagree. why do we need a loco for translation work? I rather expand the other way around. | 02:49 |
| === Nermal is now known as Nermie | ||
| jdub | Nafallo: the idea is that loco teams handle localisation and local community outreach | 02:50 |
| mdke | jdub, well we have a number of groups in the locoteam, like forum/website development and locoteam, that don't use the ubuntu-l10n-it list | 02:50 |
| jdub | Nafallo: so first we'd create ubuntu-se (which doesn't really have to be a full-on loco team) | 02:51 |
| jdub | Nafallo: then once the l10n traffic got too much for the other loco tasks, we split off a -l10n list (as has happened in france) | 02:51 |
| jdub | mdke: that's what loco teams do | 02:51 |
| mdke | we use our ubuntu-it for support | 02:51 |
| Nafallo | jdub: in other words we create a loco-team that really is a translation team? :-) | 02:51 |
| Nafallo | hehe, might work :-) | 02:52 |
| jdub | Nafallo: to start with, if that's the major activity of the loco team, yes | 02:52 |
| jdub | the loco teams focus on different kinds of things, depending on their drive | 02:52 |

| davyd | ok, my attempt to build a Xinerama aware xscreensaver has failed | 03:16 |
| ogra | davyd, as i said, i have it here... i just need to clean the code of the new lockwindow hack | 03:18 |
| davyd | ogra: but I wanted to do it now | 03:18 |
| davyd | also, I am avoiding dist-upgrading X for a while | 03:18 |

| davyd | however, the test-xinerama thingo that is buildable in the xscreensaver source tells me about the screens | 03:34 |
| ogra | does it show the lockscreen in the middle of both screens ? | 03:34 |

| Treenaks | teh gtk bong! | 03:36 |
| ogra | davyd, its all fake ;) theming with xpm and xft | 03:36 |
| davyd | I meant actual GTK+ | 03:37 |
| davyd | my desktop is Xinerama aware, and the test app is aware, but the main xscreensaver is not | 03:37 |
| ogra | davyd, ah, thats what you mean... | 03:37 |
| davyd | they appear to be linked against the same library | 03:37 |
| ogra | davyd, but probably xscreensaver does the wrong calls | 03:37 |
| davyd | hmm, strange | 03:38 |
| davyd | I've seen it work, it works in fc4 | 03:38 |
| ogra | when i started the lockwindow theming last year, the lock.c file hasnt been touched for about 10 years... might apply to other parts too | 03:38 |
| ogra | so i'd guess jwz has built in some hardcoded crap to acheive xinerama (as he does with the logo in the original lock win) | 03:39 |

| fabbione | seb128: i found the problem... | 06:55 |
| fabbione | seb128: i will need your help to find the cure :( | 06:55 |
| seb128 | the libc bog? | 06:56 |
| fabbione | seb128: basically a set of gnome libs have been linked wrongly | 06:56 |
| fabbione | the toolchain now seems to work | 06:56 |
| fabbione | probably it was in the past.. | 06:56 |
| fabbione | this link error did propagate quite wildly around all of gnome | 06:56 |
| seb128 | what send? and do they have anything caracteristic? | 06:56 |
| seb128 | s/send/set/ | 06:57 |
| fabbione | up till now i figured only 2 libs that need to be rebuilded.. | 06:57 |
| fabbione | seb128: eh i am not sure.. | 06:57 |
| fabbione | it's nothing you can grep for | 06:57 |
| seb128 | if you wait next week there is a new GNOME upstream | 06:57 |

| seb128 | fork for what? | 07:07 |
| fabbione | but given that the toolchain is not good.. i had rather prefer the former | 07:07 |
| seb128 | 30 package doesn't seem to be a lot to rebuild | 07:08 |
| fabbione | seb128: there is a workaround to that problem.. | 07:08 |
| fabbione | seb128: it's not enough to rebuild.. | 07:08 |
| fabbione | you need to build changing linking flags | 07:08 |
| seb128 | your build-chain is fixed? | 07:08 |
| fabbione | so it's NO option | 07:08 |
| fabbione | seb128: no idea.. | 07:08 |
| fabbione | i will have to figure it once i get gcc-4.0.1 builded | 07:08 |

| ogra_ | seb128, what do you think about having some export calls in gnome-session and a gconf set of environment vars, so we could have a gui later to set environment vars without editing files ? | 07:22 |
| seb128 | sivang: you need some -dev packages you don't have installed apparently | 07:22 |

| Amaranth | no one has needed the morgue until all this X stuff so no one noticed :) | 07:24 |
| ogra_ | seb128, i dont want to change these files, but want a process to extend your PATH for example ... | 07:24 |

| seb128 | ogra_: users are lame | 07:25 |
| ogra_ | seb128, other suggestions where to introduce such a feature ? | 07:25 |
| seb128 | ogra_: they know what PATH is but not how to edit a file? | 07:25 |
| Amaranth | PATH has been around since the DOS days for them though | 07:25 |
| seb128 | and why do you need to set PATH? | 07:26 |
| === fabbione & | ||
| ogra_ | seb128, the prob is tha PATH is handled in different files... until a user discovers .gnmerc might do it, he already fucked up his /etc/environment /etc/profile ~/.bashrc ~/.bash_profile | 07:26 |
| elmo | lamont: binutils-hppa64 should be easy, it's part of an existing main package, the others are relatively small and harmless too. so, mail might work, but i believe there's some hoops to jump through these days | 07:26 |
| seb128 | ogra_: they don't have to mess with PATH | 07:27 |
| ogra_ | seb128, its not PATH but any environment vars... | 07:27 |
| sivang | ogra_: what kind of env vars do you think they would want to modify? | 07:27 |
| ogra_ | seb128, we have no easy way to do that | 07:27 |

| ogra_ | seb128, yes, but its discussed quite often in -users... i'll collect some reasons over time | 07:29 |
| ogra_ | sivang, yes | 07:29 |

| seb128 | then we will fix the it | 07:29 |
| ogra_ | oki | 07:29 |
| seb128 | there is no good rationnal for that imho | 07:29 |
| seb128 | we already change gdm.conf to set a correct PATH for users | 07:29 |

| seb128 | if they have specific reason I'm sure we will find how to fix that, but figure the reasons to start | 07:30 |
| ogra_ | seb128, i'd see it as part of commandline disintegration | 07:30 |
| seb128 | nobody should have to set a PATH even from an UI | 07:30 |
| seb128 | or PYTHONPATH or whatever | 07:31 |
| ogra_ | i.e. you install java from the sun package... you have to set some vars | 07:31 |
| seb128 | usually if you start changing that, that's because you use the command line and you should be able to edit a file | 07:31 |
| seb128 | no | 07:31 |
| sivang | seb128: you have any idea where lies AM_PATH_PYTHON macro? My autogen is complaining about it.. | 07:31 |
| seb128 | read the wiki on how to install java packages | 07:31 |
| seb128 | sivang: python-dev (random guess) | 07:31 |
| ogra_ | seb128, if you take the original sun package you have to... | 07:32 |

| seb128 | ogra_: the point it to use packages | 07:32 |

| Kamion | Canonical paid some contractors to do Xhosa translation; it may have been part of that. Don't know whether it was submitted upstream. | 07:50 |
| mdke | i think the xhosa stuff is in rosetta, you should be able to find it there | 07:50 |

| sivang | seb128: 42k | 08:01 |

| JanC | it can, after encoding/decoding :) | 08:02 |
| Amaranth | only if you make it drop things it doesn't understand | 08:02 |
| JanC | I think there was a discussion about this on python-dev recently | 08:02 |
| mdke | carlos, is there a page where I can view all the languages and status on (.e.g) the quickguide? Since rosetta was organised by language rather than by package I can't find it... | 08:02 |
| Amaranth | or somehow know the encoding | 08:03 |
| JanC | you should know the encoding ? | 08:03 |
| sivang | seb128: 4k | 08:03 |
| seb128 | sivang: that's nothing for a package | 08:03 |

| Amaranth | in ubuntu it's utf-8 which will work fine | 08:04 |

| carlos | mdke, yes, there is | 08:04 |
| carlos | mdke, but as you say, it gives a system error. | 08:04 |

| mdke | carlos, ah ok, is it filed? shall i do so? | 08:04 |
| JanC | Amaranth: I think most of the time anything 8-bit should work fine if you use the same codec for encoding & decoding ;-) | 08:07 |
| Amaranth | i'm getting a unicode error when using utf-8 | 08:07 |
| carlos | mdke, please, file it | 08:09 |
| mdke | carlos, ok i've filed it at #1511. I've also noted the difficulty in finding the page at #1510, although maybe that won't be accepted ;) | 08:11 |
| carlos | mdke, well, you have a link to it from the sourcepackage page | 08:14 |
| carlos | mdke, you want to see the translations for a concrete package | 08:14 |
| carlos | so you look for the package and then select "see the translations" | 08:14 |
| carlos | mdke, we just removed the duplicate list of sourcepackages | 08:14 |
| carlos | one for translations and the normal one from the normal "soyuz" functionality | 08:15 |
| carlos | mdke, anyway, if you still think it's not as user friendly as you think it should be, is ok to bug us about that so we can try to think a way to improve that | 08:15 |

| mdke | carlos, ok i see it! How do I find the +sources/ubuntu-docs page? | 08:29 |
| mdke | carlos, i tried some searches on https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/distros/ubuntu/hoary/+sources but couldn't find anything | 08:30 |

| mdke | ok i'll file that too | 08:31 |
| carlos | right, no source package found.. | 08:31 |
| mdke | perhaps that is the cause of the system error :) | 08:31 |

| pitti | ogra_: did you recently happen to install an amd64 daily? | 08:35 |
| ogra_ | pitti, nope | 08:35 |
| pitti | I tried this afternoon, and apt-cdrom seems to be broken | 08:36 |
| ogra_ | pitti, but X is been very outdated here... and there were other issues reported to -users | 08:36 |
| pitti | ogra_: no, I don't even come that far | 08:36 |
| Mez | do the xorg changes affect xf86? | 08:37 |

| ogra_ | pitti, nope, i didnt try, but there were many reports that it doesnt... | 08:39 |
| pitti | so I bought an amd64 and can't install it *sniff* | 08:39 |
| ogra_ | pitti, currently i'm waiting for the next colony for my first edubuntu CD tests | 08:39 |
| ogra_ | pitti, hoary.... | 08:39 |
| ogra_ | and upgrade then... | 08:39 |
| pitti | ogra_: no, I just continue to use my i386 partition for now | 08:40 |

| OddAbe19 | what broke it? the GCC transition? | 08:49 |

| jammcq_ottawa | ogra_: thanks. we're trying to plan our LTSP dev meeting, and we've picked Nov 3-6 | 10:00 |
| ogra_ | where will it be ? | 10:01 |
| jammcq_ottawa | Southwest Harbor, Maine | 10:02 |
| jammcq_ottawa | wanna come ? | 10:02 |
| jammcq_ottawa | anybody is welcome | 10:02 |
| jammcq_ottawa | this will be our 3rd annual event, and this year, I'm going to try and run it the way UDU was run. I was pretty impressed with that | 10:02 |
| ogra_ | dunno nif i have the time... i would be interested as the edubuntu guy here, but we just ha release then and i guess i might have to do some promotional stuff... | 10:03 |
| jammcq_ottawa | sure | 10:03 |
| jammcq_ottawa | i'm just trying to keep it clear of the Ubuntu mtg | 10:03 |

| Amaranth | ooh, finally a guinea pig | 10:33 |
| JanC | both with unicode filenames & with broken filenames | 10:33 |
| JanC | and both are fixed by this 2-line change :) | 10:33 |
| JanC | (for me, at least) | 10:33 |
| Amaranth | do you know what file it's breaking on and what menu entry that file represents? | 10:33 |

| === Panzerboy [~NoName@panzerboy.user] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Amaranth | and mangled it's filename? | 10:35 |
| JanC | I made 2 copies, both as "gdit" | 10:35 |
| JanC | one utf-8 encoded | 10:35 |
| Amaranth | which works, right? | 10:35 |
| JanC | the other iso8859-15 encoded | 10:35 |
| Amaranth | which doesn't, right? | 10:35 |
| JanC | I'm not sure about utf-8 | 10:36 |
| Amaranth | get rid of it | 10:36 |
| JanC | the test-menu.py script is broken | 10:36 |
| Amaranth | have just the iso8859-15 one so we know which one you're working with | 10:36 |
| Amaranth | what do you mean broken? | 10:36 |
| JanC | everything gets converted to ascii before printing :) | 10:36 |
| JanC | which obviously gives an error | 10:37 |

| JanC | yes | 10:38 |
| Amaranth | ok, use smeg to move that gedit to another category | 10:38 |
| Amaranth | make sure it moved in smeg, then restart smeg and make sure it's still moved | 10:38 |
| mdke | ooh i have X in breezy. an unexpected delight. Not gnome though | 10:38 |
| Amaranth | JanC: done? | 10:39 |
| pitti | mdke: your session doesn't start and just hangs at the first progress icon? | 10:39 |
| JanC | how do I move ? | 10:39 |
| Amaranth | drag and drop | 10:39 |
| JanC | I can't move anything it seems ? | 10:40 |
| Amaranth | err | 10:40 |
| Amaranth | what version of smeg do you have? :) | 10:40 |
| mdke | pitti, it doesn't start and I don't get any progress icons. Sadly I can't get into the console either :) ctrl alt F1 doesn't work | 10:40 |
| JanC | I use the last smeg in breezy ? | 10:40 |
| Amaranth | ok | 10:40 |
| Amaranth | any errors? | 10:40 |
| JanC | started smeg from cli & no errors | 10:41 |
| Amaranth | you're dragging from right treeview to left treeview, right? | 10:42 |
| JanC | moving is implemented after 0.7.5 ? | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | no | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | 0.6 | 10:42 |
| mdke | pitti, i can get a failsafe gnome though, with some xkb errors | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | so you have it | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | mdke: System->Preferences->Keyboard, reset defaults | 10:42 |
| mdke | k | 10:42 |
| Amaranth | as long as /etc/X11/xkb/xkbcomp is a symlink to /usr/bin/xkbcomp and you do that you shouldn't get any xkb errors | 10:43 |
| Amaranth | JanC? | 10:43 |
| mdke | i get 13 packages that don't upgrade on a dist-upgrade, most of which are core gnome components | 10:43 |
| JanC | Amaranth : xdg doesn't like unicode DesktopFileIDs or what ? | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | pyxdg likes _only_ unicode DesktopFileIDs | 10:44 |
| JanC | they weren't unicode before... | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | mdke: why don't they upgrade? | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | JanC: pyxdg deals in pure unicode | 10:45 |
| Amaranth | it converts everything to unicode objects | 10:45 |
| mdke | dependency problems, i'm still trying to figure out what is the cause, probably xlibs tho | 10:45 |
| JanC | I added some print repr() statements to Menu.py and they were not all unicode strings ? | 10:46 |

| === bskahan [~bskahan@pool-70-18-203-94.ny325.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||

| Amaranth | ok, cool | 10:47 |
| Amaranth | this is not our problem | 10:47 |
| mdke | Amaranth, the xkb link looks fine, but its having trouble configuring xlibs due to an error "rmdir: `/etc/X11/xkb/geometry/digital_vndr': Directory not empty" that seems to be blocking the dist-upgrade, afaics | 10:47 |
| JanC | Amaranth : it's a filename, not read from a file | 10:48 |
| Amaranth | mdke: haha | 10:48 |
| Amaranth | mdke: that was a PITA | 10:48 |
| mdke | Amaranth, known? | 10:48 |
| mdke | good | 10:48 |
| mdke | bug is filed? | 10:48 |
| Amaranth | mdke: rm -rf /etc/X11/xkb/*, see what the error is now (something about a dir missing iirc), create an empty dir for it | 10:48 |
| JanC | Amaranth, look at the original code: | 10:49 |
| JanC | self.DesktopFileID = os.path.join(prefix,filename).replace("/", "-") | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | after xlibs is installed reinstall xkeyboard-config (dunno if you need this or not) | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | JanC: *beats lanius* | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | ok, this is not our problem | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | come on, you never answered me | 10:49 |
| mdke | Amaranth, ok i will try that workaround, but is the problem filed as a bug do you know? if not, I'll search b.u.c | 10:49 |
| Amaranth | *shrug* | 10:50 |
| Amaranth | daniels is busy with other things | 10:50 |
| mdke | in that case, doubly important to file a bug | 10:50 |
| Amaranth | JanC: what happens when you drag something from the right treeview to the left treeview? | 10:50 |
| mdke | that way, when he is less busy, he can handle it | 10:50 |

| JanC | Amaranth : yeah, that seems to be the issue :) | 10:53 |

| Amaranth | just the way the menu system works | 10:54 |
| JanC | strange... | 10:54 |
| Amaranth | other is for things the menu system couldn't sort into anything else | 10:54 |
| Amaranth | anyway, your busted gedit moved? | 10:54 |
| Amaranth | and stayed moved in smeg? | 10:55 |
| Amaranth | if so, restart gnome-panel and see if it matches smeg | 10:55 |
| JanC | moved & restarted & still at the same location | 10:56 |
| JanC | now restarting gnome-panel | 10:56 |
| Amaranth | ping me when you find out | 11:01 |
| JanC | Amaranth : one didn't get moved | 11:01 |
| Amaranth | which one? | 11:01 |
| Amaranth | the one you mangled? | 11:02 |
| JanC | I can't see... | 11:02 |
| Amaranth | heh | 11:02 |
| JanC | they are all listed as "Tekst-editor" in the menu ;-) | 11:02 |
| Amaranth | *sigh* | 11:02 |
| Amaranth | the one you mangled didn't get moved | 11:02 |
| Amaranth | which means your patch won't do it | 11:02 |
| Amaranth | i'll look at how libgnome-menu handles it after i wake up | 11:03 |

| Lathiat | heh | 11:08 |
| Amaranth | no | 11:10 |
| JanC | so this is undefined behaviour... :-/ | 11:10 |
| JanC | DesktopFileID is something internal from python-xdg, nothing from the menu-spec ? | 11:12 |
| Amaranth | no, it's in the menu spec | 11:21 |
| Amaranth | it's pretty goofy, actually | 11:27 |
| Amaranth | <Filename> takes a DesktopFileID | 11:27 |
| bob2 | oh, wow, there're x40 tablets now | 11:27 |
| Amaranth | which is generally just the filename but it might have a prefix on it depending on where it came from or other xml in the menu | 11:28 |
| Amaranth | bob2: slashdot beat you to it by about 2 weeks :) | 11:28 |
