[12:03] allright, good night and keep up the good work :) -> [12:21] sealne: how's the wheelchair accessibility at strathclyde? [12:24] didn't i mention that? fully accessable [12:25] Riddell, added a build-dep and now it builds fine. Should I put myself in as the maintainer for kicks and giggles? [12:25] seth_k|lappy: can do [12:52] Riddell, http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1354 === claydoh [n=clay@65.99.187.173] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:28] seth_k|lappy: it needs a .orig [01:28] seth_k|lappy: also remove CVS directories from the .orig [01:32] okay, wasn't sure if I should so as to stick close to upstream [01:32] will do now and reupload in a sec [01:32] seth_k|lappy: hang on, few other comments [01:32] http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1354 [01:33] alright, thanks :) [01:34] Riddell, so you want a non-native package? .orig and diff? [01:35] seth_k|lappy: yes, non-native [01:35] it might be native to him but it isn't to us [01:35] http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1354 another comment [01:36] seth_k|lappy: but you can keep the debian directory in the .orig or .diff whichever you perfer [01:36] assuming the original source has a debian/ directory [01:36] it does [01:36] if I'm going to maintain it though, I'd just as soon break it out now [01:36] so I'll re-do with .orig and diff and have it up in a sec [01:37] groovy [01:37] I think I'll go ahead and make it -0 as well; he's making a native package with Debian revision numbers, that's kinda an oxymoron [01:38] yes, well noticed [01:41] going out for a jog, will revu when I get back if it's uploaded === seth_k_ [n=seth@ubuntu/member/sethkinast] has joined #kubuntu-devel [01:56] happy new year seth_k|lappy [01:56] you too, raphink :) [01:56] do you have any resolutions ;) [01:56] hmm [01:57] find a job [01:57] :s [01:57] hehe [01:57] and it's not that easy [01:57] to try to find what I could do [01:57] ;) [01:57] not that I have no skill [01:57] but I don't want to do any job [01:57] ;) [01:57] lately i'm thinking if I could work a linux teacher [01:57] like teaching the basic use of linux systems in companies [01:58] what kind of level/skills do you think that requires? [01:58] better communication skills than Linux skills [01:58] mhm [01:58] well I've focused on pedagogy lately [01:58] and i'm aiming to create a new method to teach computer sciences [01:59] using what I have learned in pedagagy [01:59] pedagogy [01:59] that was not, as far as I know, used for computer sciences so far [01:59] so let's say I've got the communication and teaching skills [01:59] I'm more wondering about the linux skills ;) [02:01] what do you think seth_k|lappy ? [02:02] I think that you don't need very advanced Linux skills to teach the basics found in a workplace [02:02] word processing, faxing, printing, e-mail [02:02] I'm aiming to teach more [02:03] although that all depends what they want me to teach, of course [02:03] but I'd like to go as far as understanding the file system [02:03] and the relation between it and partitions [02:03] and stuff like that [02:04] whew [02:04] and I want to work on a new way to teach these concepts [02:04] I've begun to work on it today [02:05] focusing on the filesystem and partitions so far [02:05] but I hope to go deeper into other stuff [02:05] network and so on [02:07] seth_k|lappy: i've done that today : http://r.pinson.free.fr/travail/systeme_fichier.jpg [02:07] it's just a mockup [02:07] and I'm not very happy with it [02:07] I got to the point that their are actually two concepts that are often confused [02:08] the hard drive, divised in partitions, which is a rather spacial concept [02:08] and the filesystem, on which partitions are mounted, which is a rather temporal concept, since you go from a dir to another to browse it [02:12] anyway [02:12] ;) [02:47] Riddell, all done when you get back [02:50] brave workers around :) [02:50] making dapper a more exciting perspective everyday :) === mdz [n=mdz@studiocity-motorola-bsr1-70-36-194-85.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [03:01] raphink: read the FHS to learn about the filesystem [03:01] FHS? [03:01] Riddell: actually I most want to teach it [03:01] file heirarchy standard [03:02] find a way to teach the concept to noobs in companies [03:02] mm, yes, it's not always easy [03:02] yes [03:02] that's why I want to apply my knowledge in pedagogy [03:03] and try to understand as best as possible the concept of filesystem [03:03] to focus on the concept [03:03] it really annoyed me how they added /srv recently, you'd thing they would understand that 3 letter abbreviations are not a good idea [03:03] hehe [03:03] what is /srv for? [03:04] server files, i.e. what apache or ftp server gives out === Riddell reads http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedagogy [03:04] hehe [03:04] I study an innovative pedagogy [03:05] which is yet almost only taught in French speaking countries [03:05] because it's hard to translate (if possible) [03:06] seth_k|lappy: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1357 1 issue still [03:06] bah :) === seth_k|lappy looks [03:06] also I've no idea what the debiandirs file is for [03:07] hum, Riddell, he had it under version 1 methinks [03:07] not version 2 [03:07] seth_k|lappy: could you add the homepage to the description in debian/control while we're being perfectionists :) [03:07] sure thing :) [03:07] seth_k|lappy: everything I've seen says version 2 [03:07] I've never seen anything that uses GPL 1 [03:07] alrighty [03:07] Riddell: could you advocate http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1310 again please? [03:07] raphink: what's changed? [03:08] GPL-2 is from 1991 or so I think [03:08] so hardly any program is under -1 [03:08] not much Riddell [03:08] yep, predates even Linux [03:08] http://revu.tauware.de/diff.py?upid1=1000&upid2=1310 [03:08] added a patch for the desktop file [03:09] and one of the pot file [03:09] removed files left after debuild && debuild -S -sa [03:09] and that's about it [03:09] raphink: why the need for make -f Makefile.cvs ? [03:10] because i remove some files in clean: that need to be regenerated [03:10] uploading again, Riddell, it'll take a couple minutes to process it [03:10] :s [03:10] since some files are modified by the build and have to be cleaned in clean: [03:10] raphink: groovy, advocated [03:10] ok :) [03:10] ty [03:11] wonder where pef has gone to, he was a good revu'er [03:11] vacation maybe ;) [03:11] new upload is active on REVU, Riddell. 1 -> 2 && +Homepage [03:12] it would be really good if we could reach a critical mass of kubuntu MOTU for revuing [03:13] seth_k|lappy: gah, nooo! [03:13] Riddell, ah? [03:13] should be /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL not /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 [03:13] ahhhh [03:13] since it's GPL 2 or later === mez_ [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #kubuntu-devel [03:13] Riddell: the more kubuntu members, the more kubuntu MOTUs I guess ;) [03:13] and /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL is a symlink which will get updated when GPL 3 comes out [03:13] ohhhh [03:13] slomo had me change that in the kmobiletools package [03:13] and I've always done it since :S [03:14] sorry [03:14] did he? [03:14] once more... [03:14] Riddell: do you have a reference about this /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL thingy ? [03:14] cause we had a talk about it with slomo last time [03:14] and although it seems very logical to me [03:14] i haven't gotten any 'standard' reference to it [03:14] maybe in policy [03:14] raphink: no I don't, maybe we should being it up at the next motu meeting [03:14] I had to change it in one of my packages, too [03:14] so it'd be good to check and have a reference to quote === raphink goes to check in policy [03:15] so should I change it, or not :) it's ready to upload again if so [03:15] try to call me if you don't see me back in 1 hour [03:15] that means i'm lost in policy [03:15] haha [03:15] :s [03:15] seth_k|lappy: yeah upload, we can change it again if I'm wrong === raphink fears policy [03:16] uploading... [03:17] Every package must be accompanied by a verbatim copy of its copyright and distribution license in the file /usr/share/doc/package/copyright. This file must neither be compressed nor be a symbolic link. [03:17] Policy 12.5 [03:17] that is interesting enough [03:18] Packages distributed under the UCB BSD license, the Artistic license, the GNU GPL, and the GNU LGPL should refer to the files /usr/share/common-licenses/BSD, /usr/share/common-licenses/Artistic, /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL, and /usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL respectively, rather than quoting them in the copyright file. [03:19] I think Riddell gets full marks on that one ;) [03:19] indeed [03:19] although i'm still searching for stuff on GPL-2 file [03:21] va falloir envoyer un mail RMS ;) [03:21] grml [03:22] Riddell, new upload processed [03:22] seth_k|lappy: advocated! [03:22] I'd just say that when searching on google [03:22] /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL gives about 136000 results [03:22] seth_k|lappy: please track down someone else to advocate and I'll upload [03:22] while /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 gives only about 10500 [03:22] Riddell, will do [03:22] thanks [03:22] I'm off to bed [03:22] night [03:22] although almost no app is licensed under -1 [03:23] and policy doesn't talk about /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 [03:23] so +1 for Riddell [03:23] :) [03:23] although it'd be nice to get it to next MOTU meeting as Riddell said :) [03:24] no MOTU meeting scheduled that I can see [03:24] yes :s [03:24] maybe we can add it to the agenda [03:24] so whenever there's a meeting it can be talked about [03:24] is there an agenda actually? [03:25] hehe [03:25] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUMeeting [03:25] I'll add it :) [03:26] Riddell: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUMeeting [03:27] groovy [03:27] :) [03:29] ok I'm off to bed :) [03:29] ++ [03:30] night raphink|sleep [03:30] night seth_k|lappy [03:31] btw Riddell, I did the manpage for the bonus points, do I have enough to get a pony yet? :P [03:34] free horse to whoever packages polyester widget style first :) === Riddell beds === raphink|sleep wonders where he would put a free horse in his 35m flat === freeflying [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.36] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #kubuntu-devel === crimsun [i=nobody@warped.bluecherry.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@CPE-144-136-118-222.nsw.bigpond.net.au] has joined #kubuntu-devel [04:41] Hobbsee, want a free pony?

[09:03] I'd rather have elmo yell at me if it bounces again so I don't have to come hunt down what's wrong [09:04] ok, although that always seems to go wrong when I do that [09:05] thanks, I appreciate it [09:05] uploaded [09:09] sebas: what's the difference between "import qt" and "from qt import *" in python? === jpatrick [n=patrick@26.Red-83-50-138.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [09:15] thanks very much, Riddell. seems to have gone through okay... and I appreciate being able to see the katie output [09:17] I wish katie would output to the person who signed it as well as the changed-by [09:21] Riddell: new kmymoney2: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1350 [09:29] oh dear [09:29] jpatrick: libaqbanking0-dev still won't install [09:31] okay that's another oh dear [09:31] which is caused by some x thingy not working [09:32] libaqbanking0c2 ? [09:32] Riddell, I'll contact upstream with the updated package and the comment about using XDG menus after it hits the archive [09:33] seth_k|lappy: great [09:33] jpatrick: it needs to do a libstdc++ transition but can't because of some X thingy not working [09:34] Riddell: another one? (you did one last month) [09:35] same one as last month [09:35] c2 -> c2a [09:35] Riddell: btw I've closed a few bugs in LP such as: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/yakuake/+bug/3209 [09:35] xvfb-run is the problem [09:37] hmm, seems to be working now, might give libaqbanking0-dev another shot [09:37] um jpatrick... https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/yakuake/+bug/3209 isn't fixed. We need to either patch the default accesskey, or provide a readme [09:37] telling the reporter a workaround is *not* the same as fixing the bug [09:37] ah right [09:38] plus, he can't open yaKuake to perform your workaround [09:38] since F12 is already bound [09:39] He might be able to use DCOP [09:39] it's a tricky one, not sure what the correct solution is for that [09:40] Riddell, why in the world is F12 right-click anyways? that's sort of a weird key to choose [09:41] why not make it something like they're used to... Apple + Command + Shift + Ctrl + 3 + A [09:41] :P [09:42] I used right control and right meta key when I had a mac [09:43] So should the bug really be re-filed about changing the default right-click key, instead of the default yaKuake key? :/ [09:45] you could argue that but whatever key was chosen for that would probably clash with something, and whatever key yakuake has will probably clash with something too [09:47] Riddell: Namespacing, after import "qt', you have to refer to classes as "qt.QWidget()", after "from qt import *" you can do "QWidget()" [09:48] aah, thanks sebas [09:48] Riddell: And in case you didn't see it, I fixed guidance on dapper. [09:48] sebas: yeah, I uploaded that thanks [09:48] The problem wasn't pykde indeed. [09:48] it was your sloppy coding :) [09:48] Did you upload current svn, or just with that patch added? [09:48] just the patch [09:48] Simon's, actually :) [09:49] We could do another code drop into dapper before the release, I think current svn is in pretty good shape, but I'm planning more usability work. === _Sime is working feverishly on dualhead in guidance. [09:49] And displayconfig is supposed to be release quality before dapper release also. [09:51] so I should upload an svn snapshot nowish? [09:51] Yeah, you could do. [09:51] I think it shouldn't be broken :) [09:51] and have displayconfig enabled? [09:51] <_Sime> I've also been thinking about what we can do about hardware changes at boot time. (i.e. replacing gfx cards) [09:51] Wider testing would be good, so we can get feedback. [09:52] <_Sime> displayconfig should be working ok in svn.

[11:27] apokryphos: amu made some 3.5 packages I think [11:28] Riddell: oh? They gonna go in the repo soon? [11:29] (what was the procedure (if you don't mind), just for reference) [11:29] apokryphos: need to ask amu [11:29] apokryphos: which procedure? [11:30] Riddell: for building packs simply on a different arch. In deboostrap chroot you just need to get the source, and remove the debian/ is it? [11:30] and end up with debuild some time at the end 8) [11:30] put the deb-src in source.list === apokryphos nods [11:30] apt-get source foo; cd foo-; debuild [11:30] I remember it being short; thanks. [11:31] jjesse: I never knew you were in the US [11:31] wonder why not === mornfall frowns [11:31] Riddell: don't you know if sources.list.d is going to be used by default on dapper? [11:32] or someone [11:32] Riddell: yup all my life :) [11:33] mornfall: that would mean debian-installer writing to sources.list.d I presume? [11:33] or (k)ubuntu-express [11:34] Riddell: no idea [11:35] or is it something that apt needs to have enabled? [11:35] nah, it should just work out of the box [11:35] question is, what will the default config be like [11:35] last thing i want to do is support sources.list.d [11:36] I'll ask kamion [11:37] i am completely clueless as how a gui for editing such a beast should look like [11:37] mornfall: seen the synaptic sources editor? [11:38] it's a bit abstracted from sources.list [11:38] which synaptic version? [11:40] mornfall: breezy [11:51] _Sime: fix in [11:52] Riddell: tomorrow when i get to work and have a better connection i'll upload more changes to the release notes [11:52] jjesse: awooga [11:53] jjesse: you should be able to add that we have a new displayconfig X setup module in system settings [11:53] Riddell: i went through your suggestions that we talked about before i left on christmas break [11:54] and have made them [11:54] cool [12:04] mornfall.. [12:04] 23:03 < Kamion> Riddell: just sources.list unless somebody gives me a good reason otherwise beyond "it's there" :-) [12:04] 23:03 < Kamion> I prefer to leave sources.list.d for other packages and admin customisation
