[11:21] that's just an example, there are many others [11:22] Tonio_: and it's even less clear to guess it's gonna be available in kontact [11:22] most users have no conscious idea that kontact gathers several apps as parts [11:22] they juts open kontact and see lots of options [11:22] raphink: absolutly [11:22] but they totally ignore that kmail is the part dealing with email [11:22] or kadressbook with addresses [11:22] for them it's just kontact [11:23] I personnaly had to search about 10 minutes to find the component to install for PDA sync... [11:23] and if some functions are not available, it's not logical for most users to install a new app to have more parts in one [11:23] imho [11:23] thus I think jpatrick's proposition of installing all kontact parts by default is safe [11:23] the problem is that they are not named "kontact-akregator" or something [11:24] and I, for one, am not at all the kind that enjoys installing things I don't use [11:24] Tonio_: and they shouldn't be [11:24] that way it could be possible to let them install complementary components [11:24] if a user only wants an email client [11:24] he has no reason to install kontact [11:24] kmail works fine alone [11:24] raphink: of course they shouldn't, but in that case it can be complicated i you want something that isn't provided with the default installation [11:25] so making kontact depending on all it's components is a good idea :) [11:25] another option, but I guess it's a nice one, would be to make a metapackage called kontact-components, that would install all components [11:25] the kontact package would recommend it, but not depend on it [11:25] so it would still be easy to install kontact without the components for the ones who want it so [11:25] and thus add components manually [11:25] raphink: yep that's another solution [11:25] Riddell, you know anything bout this error that happens when you log out of kde sumtime "cannot talk to klauncher" [11:25] or to have all the components added by default by installing this metapackage [11:26] viviersf: very annoying one ;) [11:26] yes [11:26] :P [11:26] but not major [11:26] yar [11:26] raphink: another question, do you know a tuto that would explain how to install ubuntu on a usb key ? [11:26] there's no crash, and it doesn't prevent from using any featur [11:26] it's just ugly [11:26] but noobs in south africa have a fit with errors like that raphink [11:26] no idea Tonio_ [11:27] Riddell: what would you think of the metapackage option? [11:27] I haven't been able to find a debian based usb bootable distro [11:27] how do you mean viviersf ? [11:27] Tonio_: flonnix ? [11:27] raphink, people here have issues with error messages like that [11:27] :/ [11:27] ah! [11:29] raphink: flonnix doesn't exist anymore [11:29] ok [11:30] viviersf: I don't I'm afraid [11:30] hmmm [11:30] viviersf: you only get it on logout? [11:31] yes Riddell [11:31] raphink: that would force people to install things they don't want, such as knode [11:31] and it happens on certain pc's only [11:31] and not always [11:31] it weird [11:31] no Riddell [11:31] Riddell: you don't understand my proposal i think [11:31] the idea would have to have a metapackage that would depend on all the components, called kontact-components, and installed by default so that users have all the components by default [11:32] kontact wouldn't depend on it, but suggest it only [11:32] so that users could safely remove this metapackage to keep only the parts they want [11:32] but if they want all the parts, installing this meta would do [11:32] raphink: hmm, interesting [11:33] :) [11:33] when new parts are released, we could update the metapackage to have it install them by default [11:34] this way we keep both `easiness' for basic users and choice for advanced ones [11:35] which is not the case if we have kontact directly depend on the parts of course [11:36] hum........ [11:36] that's a pain here is no usbuntu :) [11:36] viviersf: I haven't seen that I'm afraid. tried blanking the .kde directory to see if it's something in there that's causing it [11:36] Tonio_: ;) [11:36] otherwise might try asking on a kde channel or mailing list [11:36] Riddell, i did [11:36] still comes up [11:37] Riddell: it seems this had been found to be an issue with kbluetoothd I think [11:37] its one of kde's app [11:37] in the system tray [11:43] raphink: what is? [11:43] the bug with klauncher at logout Riddell [11:44] Riddell: what shall I do about kontact? do you want me to work on a meta ? [11:44] raphink: sure [11:44] ok then I will :) [11:44] I'll name it kontact-components [11:45] and I'll release a patch for kontact, too :) [11:50] raphink: just do it as part of the kdepim package [11:50] debdiff is fine [11:50] ah [11:50] so you want me to modify kdepim and add a binary right? [11:51] yeah, an empty one [11:51] sure [11:51] :) [11:51] I'll do that [11:51] although kdepim could be said to already cover this [11:52] mhm [11:54] hmm [11:54] actually yes Riddell [11:54] kdepim would be quite the same as the one i'm gonna make ... [11:55] so maybe what could be done would be to add a note on kontact components in the kdepim description [11:55] so apt-cache searching for kontact would bring kdepim up [11:55] kdepim is a collection of Personal Information Management (PIM) tools for the [11:55] K Desktop Enviromnent (KDE). [11:55] . [11:55] This is an empty package which depends on the current version of every [11:55] application in the kdepim distribution. [11:56] this doesn't help understanding these parts are used in kontact === raphink is going to think about this === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #kubuntu-devel === KaiL [n=KaiL@p548F5DC6.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === hunger [n=tobias@p54A611F9.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel === JRe [n=JRe@pai34-2-82-226-199-36.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jsgotangco [n=jsg@125.212.109.69] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Huahua [n=hua@221.172.49.179] has joined #kubuntu-devel === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel === JRe [n=JRe@pai34-2-82-226-199-36.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === freeflying_ [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.8] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jsgotangco [n=jsg@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #kubuntu-devel === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Mez [n=Mez@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jsgotangco [n=jsg@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #kubuntu-devel === freeflying_ [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.12] has joined #kubuntu-devel === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has left #kubuntu-devel [] === nlindblad [n=nlindbla@user179.217-10-120.netatonce.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #kubuntu-devel [05:09] 24GiB seeded!!!

[05:47] as with the kbtserialchat [05:48] jsgotangco: well it says "bluetooth obex client" in the menu [05:49] Riddell: it does but the name of the app itself just doesn't read right :/ [05:49] jsgotangco: where doesn't it read right? [05:51] Riddell: i meant it doesn't make sense (to me) at all, even if its obviously a bluetooth client, even the app itself is named "Bluetooth OBEX Object Push client" [05:52] in the K-menu it says "Bluetooth OBEX Client" [05:52] so where's the bad name? [05:53] hmm, I see it in the titlebar [05:53] and it doesn't have an icon [05:53] yup [05:53] that too [05:54] Riddell: would a Swedish Kubuntu page be welcome? [05:54] nlindblad: you mean website?

[05:57] Riddell: ah, you mean a "choose your language" thing in PHP [05:57] nlindblad: yes. the tricky thing is exporting to .po and making the php use the .po files [05:57] Riddell: yeah [05:58] it's entirely possible, I just don't have time for it [05:58] a quick google should find you ways to do it though [05:58] Riddell: but a real effiecent system with notifications to the translators it should be possible to translate every new text in no more than 12 hours [05:58] yep [05:59] I'll do an investigation === TheK [n=KaiL@p548F58BF.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [06:00] Riddell: and Wallet Management Tool seems pretty lonely on Settings === TheK is now known as KaiL [06:01] jsgotangco: printing manager is there as well [06:01] jsgotangco: fixed in 4:3.5.0-0ubuntu4 [06:01] jjesse: is it? shouldn't be [06:01] ahhh [06:01] doh sorry that was breezy box [06:01] stupid me === jsgotangco still updating from fresh flight 3 === pef_aw is now known as pef === apokryphos [i=[U2FsdGV@server2.polaristar.com] has joined #kubuntu-devel [06:57] Riddell: I'm looking forward to your speach [06:58] uh oh, pressure [06:58] nlindblad: I'll just say "kubuntu is great because we have cool people like nlindblad, nlindblad tell us all about it" [06:58] right [07:04] =) === OculusAquilae [n=oculus@p548D1DB4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel === pef is now known as pef_aw === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #kubuntu-devel [07:42] Riddell: if I'm the person making Kubuntu great then this project is doomed === pef_ [n=loic@81.56.130.224] has joined #kubuntu-devel === OculusAquilae [n=oculus@p548D1DB4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel === Tonio__ [n=tonio@tonio.planetemu.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === OculusAquilae [n=oculus@p548D1DB4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel === OculusAquilae [n=oculus@p548D1DB4.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel [11:14] Mez: who do I talk to about backports [11:17] <\sh> to jdong or mez :) [11:18] <\sh> oh newest rumours of pykde.

[11:54] got wrong with the versionning, then with the orig, then with UVF [11:54] versioning errors, bad first uplolad, bad second upload lol [11:54] Tonio_: :p [11:54] arf [11:54] :( [11:54] hehe [11:55] these are errors i'll watch more closely in the future [11:55] keep all errors on it, the rest of your work will stay brilliant ;) [11:55] and I prefer to make them once, on a multiverse package [11:55] hehe [11:55] well theoretically eventually the monkeys at the typewriters would create a working package :) [11:56] sealne: guess: during first dist-upgrade libkcalc2 is not upgraded, at second try libkcalc2 was already updated? [11:56] thats what i presume [11:57] hmm although it is complaining the file is also in libkcal2*a* isn't that the new one? [11:57] i can't remember [11:58] oh no b is the new one [11:58] so yeah
