tsengit should take you to the right place in rosetta01:18
tsengor, it would if firefox worked as expected01:19
ptlotseng: it's not part of the gnome panel, we've translated that01:19
ptlotseng: i mean the items *under* the Applications menu (Accessories, Games, ... <- the section names)01:19

jdubeverything depending on d-bus01:55
jdubscary01:55
tsengjdub: there is no cabal01:55
ograhey its a development release, you know :P01:56
=== ogra wonders if dbus 1.0 will be released in time, so we have to do it again :)
mdkeRiddell, is that a diff on my package? looks good01:59
tsengits not that bad per maintainer01:59
danielsi should bump the soversion on libx11 for shits and giggles01:59
Riddellmdke: could you test it please01:59
mdkeRiddell, tomorrow?01:59
ograRiddell, looks good to me too ...01:59
mdkeRiddell, what are the faqguide.fr and faqguide.it changes?01:59
ograi'll adopt it for edubuntu if i dont find heavy objections in my baclog tomorrow02:00
mdkeoh nice02:00
mdkeRiddell, you rock, even correcting those02:00
ograscottish politeness :)02:01
infinityRiddell : Where's the original that the ubuntu diff is based on?02:02

mdkeRiddell, what the hell, i'll test it now. where is the pkg?02:09
mdkeor do i have to build it?02:09
=== Gman- is now known as GmanAFK
Riddellmdke: building it would be best02:11
mdkedef. tomorrow then, my internet is a bit slow and I've mislaid my local copy02:11
mdkeand I'll have to learn how to use patch too02:14
ograRiddell, shouldnt kubuntu have a higher priority ? 02:16
ograyou set it to 40 too ...02:17
Riddellogra: why?02:18
ograbecause you make sure it gets preferred as alternative in automatic mode02:18
infinityTo be fair, no one really knows what screen you'd prefer to see if you have ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, and edubuntu-desktop installed at the same time.02:19
ograand i think ubuntu-docs needs an --auto in its postinstall, but infinity might correct me here02:19
infinityAnd, no, maintainer scripts should NEVER call --auto.  Ever.02:19
ograi know that i want to see edubuntu in any case 02:19
infinityThat overrides the local admin's decision.02:20
ograok02:20
infinityAnyhow, I'll peruse these diffs later today, and either upload them as-is, or fix them and upload them, depending on what's required.02:20
infinityRiddell : Thanks for doing the grunt work.02:20
=== zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-devel
xhakergot a new one for you.. gutenprint imho should be updated (the 5.0.0rc5 is already on debian unstable) this should add support for many more printers, and it doesn't feature on PrintingRoadmap spec th02:21
mdkeRiddell, i built it and installed it on my ubuntu breezy, but I have no index.html in the relevant file, only firefox-index.html02:22
Riddellmdke: /etc/alternatives/firefox-index ?02:22
mdkeRiddell, no such file02:23
Riddellhmm, not good02:23
mdkeassuming i built it right02:23
mdkethink so02:23
infinitymdke : Do you have either kubuntu-docs or edubuntu-docs installed as well?02:24
mdkeinfinity, no02:24
infinitydpkg -S /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html02:25
mdkeit's not there...02:25
mdkedpkg can't see it02:25
infinityRight, and it shouldn't be.02:25
mdkewell how can my browser display it?02:25
infinityupdate-alternatives --display firefox-homepage02:25
mdkeNo alternatives for firefox-homepage.02:25
mdkethe file shouldn't be there?02:26
ograit should be a link to /etc/alternatives/firefox-homepage02:26
infinityWell, the file should be a symlink owned by the alternatives system.02:27
infinitySo, Riddell broke something, perhaps. :)02:27
mdkethere is nothing in either of those :)02:27
infinityI'll look at it later on today, unless you guys feel like fixing it.02:27
mdkethis will work for epiphany too right?02:27
ograi dont see an error in the code ...02:27
mdkesilly question, but all this talk of ff makes me nervous02:28
jdubthis seems like a lot of work to go to when we're going to switch to start.ubuntu.com anyway...02:28
ogra+    update-alternatives \02:28
ogra+      --install /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/index.html \02:28
ogra+      firefox-homepage /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/firefox-index.html 4002:28
mdkejdub, it is for breezy02:28
ogralooks totally ok02:28
mdkeogra, maybe I built the package wrong02:28
jdubbreezy? okay - i don't want to know.02:29
mdkejdub, so is somebody going to approve and implement start.ubuntu.com?02:29
ogradoes /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork/home/firefox-index.html exist ?02:29
mdkeogra, yes02:29
jdubmdke: yeah02:29
ograhmm, and /etc/alternatives/firefox-homepage doesnt point to it ? 02:29
mdkejdub, ah, who?02:29
mdkeogra, there isn't one of those02:29
jdubmdke: moi02:29
ogravery strange02:29
mdkejdub, aha02:30
=== mdke doesn't like that spec :)
jdubneither do i02:31
ograhmm, btw, how do we handle translations of this page with the alternatives system ? 02:31
jdubso i'm going to use the ancient, time-tested technique of "approval by reauthoring"02:31
mdkejdub, yeah, i was gonna say, bear translation in mind02:31
jdubalready on the cards02:32
mdkeogra, Riddell, i think I probably applied the patch wrongly, nm I'll try again tomorrow02:32
ograoki02:32
mdkejdub, cool. will it still be an online page?02:32
=== mdke crosses fingers for an offline one
jdubogra: dude, if this is seriously a change in breezy, trying to think about translations and alternatives and stuff like that is insane02:32
jdubmdke: absolutely - start.ubuntu.com02:32
mdke:(02:33
jduboffline does not make sense02:33
ograjdub, we'll carry it over to dapper02:33
mdkeogra, there won't be translations of the homepage in breezy02:33
jdubogra: dapper will use start.ubuntu.com02:33
mdkeabsolutely not02:33
ograjdub, for edu/kubuntu ? 02:33
jdubogra: sure02:33
ograor any upcoming derivative ? 02:33
ograxubuntu ... jdubuntu 02:34
jdubif we can provide a simple way of changing the default url as a branding thing, sure02:34
ograyup02:34
jdubor if they don't care that it's 'ubuntu'02:34
jdubthey don't have to worry02:34
jdubhonestly - edubuntu needing a different start page? might be fun down the track, but not important for dapper.02:34
mdkeit has one now02:34
mdkehence the strife :)02:35
jduba different start.ubuntu.com that doesn't completely different things than the current abomination02:35
infinityjdub : start.ubuntu.com will get diabled in a hurry by a lot of people if we don't have a clever offline fallback.02:35
ograjdub, we have our featurelist there ... and since we run a bunch of local servers i want to put links there to reach them02:35
jdubwhich has to be branded02:35
jdubdue to said abomination02:35
mdkeinfinity, +1002:35
mdkeepiphany opens the home page in all new tabs... on a modem, that will be IRRITATING02:36
jdubinfinity: how many web browsers ship with offline home pages? how many people want to know that they're online by launching their web browser?02:36
mdkejdub, it's not so much being offline, but being online, slowly02:36
infinityjdub : How many OS vendors have to re-implement the same mistakes before we decide not to?02:36
mjg59NetworkMagic will tell Firefox that it's offline and so it'll do something sensible02:37
mjg59Right?02:37
infinityjdub : I switch my homepage to about:blank most places, not because I'm a fascist, but because online default homepages are irritatingly slow and/or broken.02:37
jdubinfinity: dude. i thought it was right when i suggested it pre-warty. i realise now that i was fundamentally wrong.02:37
=== mdke nods
tseng"google.com"02:37
mdkejdub, how about we make a nicer smaller homepage along the lines of the spec, but make it offline?02:37
mjg59jdub: Browsers are entirely sensible applications to run offline. Having an error appear when an offline user opens it is so insanely painful that I'd rather be nailed to a tree02:38
jdubmdke: it's not going to be offline.02:38
jdubmjg59: that's what i thought too. turns out it's useful knowledge, precisely what the user is looking for.02:38
mdkeheh02:38
mjg59jdub: A user who wants to view an offline page is not looking for an error box. They already know they're offline.02:39
mdkejdub, just a suggestion02:39
jdub"ah, the web! i am online." vs. "ah, error! i see i am not online."02:39
mjg59jdub: If the use case is "User wants to know if they're online or not", then we should figure out a way to provide that rather than trying to overload another piece of functionality02:39
infinityjdub : People who've been trained by IE's default page, perhaps.  I realise we walk a fine line between "pander to Windows users" and "DTRT for completely new computer users"... I really don't know which direction to go sometimes.02:39
mjg59jdub: Remember that a large proportion of our users are on dialup02:39
mdkemjg59, +1. It's not about being online or not, it's about having a fast browsing experience02:39
mjg59The default case is that they're offline02:39
mjg59Most of the time, they'll know that they're offline02:39
jdubmjg59: i'm not convinced that a dancing bear with nipple tassles is going to stop users from doing this very practical, coherent test.02:40
infinitymjg59 : I concede jdub's point that every time a Windows user wants to see if "The Internet is working", they fire up a web browser and wait for it to do something.02:40
mjg59jdub: But this practical, coherent test results in other practical, coherent use cases generating error messages02:40
jdubmdke: that's so much tosh02:40
Burglaptopmjg59: not neccessarily to the knowledge of being online or not. I frequently do it02:40
mdkejdub, i'm biased because I use epiphany on a relatively low speed connection, and I don't like blank homepages, but I still think it's not "tosh"02:41
mdkeespecially since i'm not the only one making the point02:41
infinityjdub : If start.ubuntu.com is really, really slim, and really, really low latency, then the speed argument's not valid.  But our current website certain doesn't fit that bill.02:41
jdubmjg59: nono, this is very interesting stuff - they *think* they might be online, because the magic of networking is so foreign to them that a practical test wins hands down.02:41
mdkethe network applet should tell them if they are online or not02:41
mjg59jdub: That implies that we're doing something fundamentally wrong with networking02:41
mjg59(Which I could well believe)02:41
jdubinfinity: our current website will *not* be start.ubuntu.com02:41
jdubmjg59: the world is, not us02:42
jdubmdke: and they still won't believe it02:42
mjg59Now, if you were suggesting that any application that accesses the network should generate a "You're not online. Would you like to be online?" message when started, then I'd agree02:42
infinityjdub : I didn't imply that it would be.  Just that we're not infamous for web pages that can get a 1-2 second round-trip on dialup.02:42
jduband rightly so02:42
Burglaptopmjg59: the two can coexist02:42
jdubthere will be instances where network-manager thinks it's online, but it's not02:42
mjg59But that's an entirely different argument to "Should I get error messages on Firefox startup"02:42
mjg59And, at the moment, starting Firefox when you don't have an internet connection will result in something mad like "No route to host" or "connection refused"02:43
mjg59That's not informative. It's not telling the user anything they want to know02:43
jdubwe can eventually fix the 'no network at all' stuff02:44
Burglaptopmjg59: that is a FF bug, not a reason to not use start.ubuntu.com02:44
mjg59They're getting an error, when it could be that they know they can't acces a website02:44
mjg59Burglaptop: No, there's no way for firefox to know02:44
jdubwe can't fix the 'can i access the internet' stuff02:44
danielshave a big banner up the top of the screen02:44
danielsNO YOU ARE NOT ON THE INTERWEB02:44
floamso apt is wanting to get rid of hal and dbus, I assume something is broke02:45
mjg59A standard userspace application can't tell the difference between being unable to access a website because you have no link to any of the internet, or being unable to access a website because our server has fallen over02:45
mjg59It'll just get "No route to host" in both cases02:45
danielsfloam: welcome to dapper02:45
Burglaptopfloam: wait02:45
floamdaniels: I'm not perturbed02:45
mdkelol @daniels and the interweb02:45
floamI'm just making sure they didn't get renamed or something02:45
jdubfloam: upgrade, don't dist-upgrade02:45
ografloam, its all intentional02:45
Burglaptopfloam: dbus is going through a transition02:46
mjg59jdub: So the case you're talking about isn't actually diagnostic. All it says is that packets can't reach start.ubuntu.com. That might be because you're offline, or it might be because your ISP has dropped chunks of the world, or it might be because our ISP has fucked up.02:46
floamjbailey: I didn't dist upgrade02:46
floamerr02:46
floamjdub: 02:46
danielsi didn't even know about that one, and I'm allegedly the dbus maintainer.  go figure.02:46
floamwell, I did once, but that's normla.02:46
mjg59jdub: And people don't want to know whether they can reach start.ubuntu.com. They want to know whether they're ON TEH INTARWEB02:46
Burglaptopmjg59: how does that conflict with s.u.c?02:46
jdubmjg59: my mum doesn't know that. but she knows that by trying things in her browser, she'll *practically* know if she's on the internet. a useful, network start page is the first step.02:46
mjg59jdub: If you rephrase this as "Setting firefox to have an online start page is by and large good enough given the technology we currently have", then I'll agree02:47
mjg59But the correct answer isn't to attempt to diagnose whether you're online or not by testing whether you can get an http connection to a specific website02:47
mjg59We can be much smarter than that, and we can do so in a way that isn't firefox specific02:47
=== mdke still thinks the network applet should do it
jdubmjg59: my mum doesn't think about it in those terms, and doesn't care.02:47
jdubmdke: it can't.02:47
mdke*should*02:48
jdub*can't*02:48
jdubdo you want to play a game?02:48
Burglaptopmdke: nothing beats opening your browser and discovering that fact for yourself, little icon or no02:48
mjg59jdub: If Firefox gives your mum (YOUR MUM) an error that's identical in the case where (1) you can't access the internet, and (2) you can't access s.u.c, how is that actually diagnostic of whether she's on the internet02:48
mdkeBurglaptop, ok, well opening your browser and clicking on a weblink would do the trick too02:48
jdubthe network applet *can't* give you a *practical* understanding of whether you can access the internet and do what you want to do or not02:48
danielsneither can going to s.u.c02:49
mjg59Unless we're talking about multihoming s.u.c02:49
danielsbut both can give you a decent idea02:49
Burglaptopmdke: why force them to do something more, why not just ry?02:49
Amaranthwhat is the s?02:49
mdkeBurglaptop, because there are good reasons not to, slow speed of loading02:49
BurglaptopAmaranth: start02:49
mjg59Burglaptop: If I want to read a local html page, why should I get an error message first?02:49
Amaranthah02:49
mdkeAmaranth, BrowserDefaults02:49
jdubmjg59: she'll try something else, or get on with her life. it's a good start. n-m knowing if it has link/ip/etc isn't a good *practical* start.02:49
mjg59jdub: link/ip isn't a good start. Default gateway is.02:50

jdubmjg59: not practically.02:50
Burglaptopmjg59: why do you want to local page? because you want no page or becuase you want the offline page?02:50
mjg59Burglaptop: Because I'm writing a website locally?02:50
nictukuhi. Is there any documentation or reference for python-apt, besides the docstrings?02:50
danielslink + ip + default gw + ability to, say, resolve www.google.com02:50
Amaranthoh yeah, has anyone managed to get dapper to boot/install on a ppc?02:50
Burglaptopmjg59: then you doulbe click to open it through nautilus02:50
mjg59jdub: DNS is a significantly better test of that02:50
ograAmaranth, i managed to run flight 2 live on ppc02:51
Amaranthhrm02:51
mjg59Burglaptop: If that was the general use case, we wouldn't have an open option in the file menu02:51
jdubmjg59: when you have some spare time to do a basic network training course with my mum, let me know.02:51
ograAmaranth, but it boos very sloooooooow02:51

Amaranthogra: i'm stuck on OS X :P02:52
jdubmjg59: so in the mean time, she'll try and load a web page. :-)02:52
ograAmaranth, how long did you wait ? 02:52
mjg59jdub: And that's something that should be entirely independent of Firefox. That's something that we should be implementing in all our networked apps.02:52
mjg59jdub: Or, more sensibly, it's something that should be monitored centrally02:52
Burglaptopmjg59: that is a good thing but most users will still open their webbrowser02:52

jdubi don't disagree. but that still won't stop users trying a totally sensible and practical way to determine if the computer/network/magic is lying or not. :-)02:53
mjg59jdub: Again, I'm willing to accept that this is the best we can do right now02:53
mjg59jdub: But would you please accept that what you're currently proposing does have negative effects on a reasonable use case?02:53
jdubmjg59: very minor negative effects on a very edge use case - sure02:54
mjg59jdub: Negative effects of an error being generated when (in that case) there is no error02:54
jdubsure there's an error -> your internet isn't working02:55
jdubbut you want to do something different, and that's okay02:55
mjg59jdub: But I'm not trying to access the internet. I'm trying to open a local HTML document.02:55
mjg59Right. You're overloading "Opening Firefox" to "Trying to access the internet"02:55
jdubthat's okay02:55

jdubno we're not02:55
jdubit just happens to be really good at that02:55
jduband telling you that you can't02:56
mjg59jdub: You want people who open Firefox to be told whether or not they have internet access02:56
mjg59jdub: And, in /other/ fringe cases, you result in Firefox sitting there for ages before generating an error message02:56
jdubi want it to "do that network thing", because that is *VASTLY* the major use case02:56
mjg59jdub: So, does your mum think that opening firefox when the start page is local is a test of the internet? (I don't know the answer to this)02:57
jdubwhen i ask my mum, "are you connected to the internet?" she launches her browser02:57
jdubbetterdesktop.org had the same results02:58
mjg59Does she launch her browser, or does she launch her browser, wait for it to say "Welcome to Ubuntu" and then type in a URL?02:58
ograwe should probably postpone such a change until we have a sane way to handle dialup ...02:58
=== mdke hugs ogra
jdubmjg59: she sees the firefox start page working and says, "yes"02:58
ograsince currently only the sudo user can use dialup ...02:59
mjg59jdub: By that argument, a link at the top of a local page saying "Check if you're on the internet" would seem about as reasonable02:59
Burglaptopjdub: part of that is due to not have a good way for Windows to notify the user as to network state, but that doesn't preclude s.u.c, in my mind02:59
jdubBurglaptop: however it did it, users would do this anyway02:59
jdubBurglaptop: because it's practical02:59
jdub"is this water too hot?" ... "i'll put a thermometer in it!"02:59
Burglaptopjdub: precisely why I am made the second part of that statement02:59
jdubno, you touch the side of the glass, or dip your finger in02:59
mjg59jdub: We can have firefox provide this information without having this sort of hack. It's just more effort.03:00
Burglaptopmjg59: how do you know if your car can run? Do you look a light or do you just turn the key?03:00
mdkeBurglaptop, a car only has one function, to run.03:01
jdubmjg59: this is not a hack. name a browser that ships with an offline home page.03:01
mdkethe browser does online and offline03:01
Burglaptopmdke: for 95% of its life, so does a webbrowser03:01
jdubstandard operation for a network application03:01
jdubit's not exactly surprising, scary or bad03:01
mjg59jdub: It's a hack when "No route to host" is treated as equivalent to "You don't have the internet"03:01
mjg59jdub: The two of these are not the same at all03:01
infinityIndeed.03:01
mjg59In many cases they overlap. But I think telling people "You don't appear to be on the internet. Would you like to be?" is much more sensible than "No route to host"03:02
Burglaptopmjg59: in most cases, not being able to get to s.u.c is going to mena they cannot get the general interweb03:02
mjg59And that's what IE does03:02
ogramjg59, even worse, in case of dialup there is "no such device"03:02
infinityNote that windows DOES do this differently, so saying "we should use an online start page like windows does, cause they do it" isn't really quite right.03:02
jdubmjg59: great, let's fix that bug when we can03:02
jdubinfinity: that's not what i'm saying03:02
infinityWindows will detect the lack of an default gateway when you try to hit that start page, and prompt you to DO something about it (dial-up, etc)03:02
mjg59It's also the case that most browsers ship with online start pages because the vendors want to be able to provide more up to date advertising03:02
infinityIn our case, as mjg59 says, we'll end up with "remote server dead" and "you have no internet" being the same error.03:03
mjg59jdub: We have all the components to do that now. We just need someone to commit to us fixing it as a priority.03:03
jdubinfinity: post-dapper, We'll Have The Technology.03:03
jdubmjg59: and we would like people to find ours useful, informative and up-to-date, not static.03:03
xhakera real hack would be: setting the page to an offline one.. and code that page so it fetches some content online ;) ala AJAX, while the data is not fetched a .gif showing some progress would indicate that something is being done!03:03
mdkejdub, if the page will be short and light, it won't need a lot of updating03:04
mjg59jdub: Right. If there's a desire to provide non-static information, then I'm all for that. That wasn't the argument you seemed to be making.03:04
Burglaptopmdke: you are confusing short and light with static03:04
jdubmdke: it will be short, light, and include dynamic content, and not forever look like arse after it's been distributed on a cd.03:04
Burglaptopmdke: an rss feed of the top item on the fridge is short but not static03:04

Burglaptopxhaker: can you do it?03:06
jdubmdke: read "forever" and "static" louder than "look like arse"03:06
xhakerit would be wierd to have too much stuff on the offline page tho03:06
xhakeri guess the css would have to be the same unless the ubuntu-doc package is updated03:06
jdubmdke: after 5 years, a static, on-cd/in-package dapper home page will look like arse.03:06
mdkejdub, so you'll change the look?03:07
mdkepresumably the "welcome to ubuntu, ubuntu is great" stuff won't change a lot03:07
jdubxhaker: it's an interesting idea, but doesn't really meet the spec - we may change what s.u.c does for all kinds of good reasons.03:07
jdubmdke: of course03:07
jdubthere are lots of reasons it might change03:07
mdkejdub, commercial ones?03:08
ograjdub, i really dont see the prob with changing the page through dapper-updates ...03:08
jdubi like to think more in terms of marketing and outreach than commercial03:08
jdubogra: i do. sorry.03:08
Burglaptopmdke: think of new things like the firdge03:08
jdubogra: not willing to ship a new package every time the fridge changes, or we launch a new service, or there's a new release, etc.03:08
jdubogra: or when we change our thematic approach to design, etc.03:09
ograjdub, i neqat in terms of looking outdated, not as a rss replacement03:09
jdubogra: just giving you all the reasons why that's not practical.03:09
ogras/neqat/meant/03:09
xhakerjdub, so make the offline version just a bunch of divs? just the layout and some text saying it is Loading++! (and a css for positioning) and then get the content you want to the corresponding div..03:09
jdubxhaker: ends up mostly nuking the benefit of doing it that way, and adding complication to boot.03:10
xhakerso maybe the page woudn't look the same on breezy and on dapper03:10
xhakerjdub, what i mean.. is that the offline version should already have some stuff.. 03:11
jdubxhaker: i understand, but don't agree right now.03:11
xhakerlike: "Trying to get updates"03:11
xhakersomehow it sound neat03:12

jdubogra: the important thing to understand in all of this is that progress drives fixes.03:21
danielshere I was thinking that patches drove fixes03:22
jdublook no further than the modernisation of the X infrastructure for hundreds of examples of that.03:22
ograjdub, i totally agree, but i dont see the ressources that are needed to do more than fixing (i.e. adding the magic potion to it)03:22
xhakercan someone give the url to the nifty build log page?03:22
jdubdaniels: patches are fixes.03:22
mdkexhaker, people.u.c/~lamont03:22
jdubogra: as i said above, magic not required.03:22

danielsx isn't modern these days, it just has a better build, er, paradigm03:23
jdubthen you're not listening to it03:23
danielsit doesn't change the fact that large chunks of it are decrepit, and we're still working around massive historical accidents03:23
xhakermdke, there was a differente interface before. :S03:23
ograjdub, magic like: the system knows i'm a dialup user and offers me to dial in if i'm not ... or connects to a working wlan or...03:23
daniels(such as the fact that the device-independent part of the X server actually has huge dependencies on the device-dependent part of the X server, which we haven't been able to remove yet)03:23
mdkexhaker, well they've always been there afaik03:24
jdubogra: that's not magic. it already exists. the only thing in the way is *fixes* - and the progress with n-m is *driving fixes*.03:24
jdubdaniels: you're talking about technology detail, not progress.03:24
xhakermdke, i've seen another page then.. was prettier03:24
xhakerlol03:24
ograjdub, i'm just fearing that it will be a half brewed experience ...03:24
jdubdaniels: fontconfig/xft/cairo drove fixes to the rendering architecture.03:25
danielsjdub: the fact still remains that creaking infrastructure is holding us back from delivering a kick-arse experience03:25
danielsjdub: yes, and xrender still isn't sensibly accelerated *anywhere*03:25
jdubdaniels: and yet, it's being fixed because what we're doing demands it.03:25
daniels(i'm discounting xglx, because it's bullshit.)03:25
jdubdaniels: don't muddy the point with irrelevant technical blather.03:25
jdubogra: we have a lot of half-arses in here. it's okay - we're adding the other half as we go.03:26

freeflying_seb128:  we want to use these two  replace ttf-arphic-gbsn00lp ,etc 02:27
seb128freeflying_: right, but you do set "it's the font to use for chinese"?02:27

freeflying_seb128: they have their own conf ,and can be used by fontconfig in /etc/fonts/conf.d/02:30

ograpitti, freeflying_ thinks xdelta isnt needed, if thats ture, the font packages need fixing03:01

jdongpeople want me to backport ooo2 from Dapper (both the m143 snapshot and the 2.0.1 packages when they come out)...10:39
jdongcurrently, these packages don't compile because the breezy patch ooo-build/patches/src680/use-free-xt-xp-jaxp-from-system-breezy.diff references an xt.jar that's in dapper10:39
jdongI was wondering if it's possible to make the xt.jar symlinking process more intelligent / distinguish between Dapper and Breezy10:40
dokojdong: sureley there is, but there are more changes needed for breezy packages. there will be packages built for breezy, we'll still have to decide, if those are good enough to go to breezy-updates10:42
jdongdoko: cool, so there are already potential plans for making OOo updates for BREezy?10:42
jdongand also, out of curiousity, what kind of "more changes"? The packages I built from Dapper seem to work fine on my system after xt.jar symlinks properly10:43
dokojdong: build dependencies10:46
jdongdoko: huh, on the 2.0.0m143 Dapper packages? They resolve fine here with apt-get build-dep10:48
dokojdong: you did ask for 2.0.110:48
