squinnI recently went back to Ubuntu. Today, actually. In the process of not having Ubuntu, my email was hacked and the password was changed. So I created a new Launchpad account, but it won't let me edit the Wiki to redo my bio.02:56

Mezand would appreciate some input from a more experienced dev03:15
raphinkjelkner: do you think anyone wants to answer people who are as friendly as ` i tried asking on #ubuntu, but that is a useless channel` ?03:16
raphinkjelkner: please be respectful to _volunteers_ who give their time on #ubuntu to answer your questions03:17
jelknerraphink: my apologies, but it is03:17
raphinkjelkner: for many things it is not03:17
raphinkbut #ubuntu is not a paid hotline03:17
jelknerraphink: i'm not in any way disparaging the volunteers, who have my utmost respect03:18
raphinkand is to be treated as what it is : a communauty help channel03:18

raphinkok03:18
jelknerbut in all honesty, the system is overloaded and not very effective03:18
jelknerthere were 600+ people there03:18
raphinkthere are lots of other specialized channels03:18
raphinkfor specialized questions03:18
jelkner*a lot* of noise03:18
raphinkyes I know jelkner 03:18

jelknerso forgive me for expressing my frustration03:19
raphinkbecause #ubuntu is too hard to read03:19
jelknerbut i'm trying to be an effective volunteer myself, and i can't get the info i seek03:19
raphinkjelkner: iirc ajmitch is our zope specialist here03:20
raphink:)03:20
raphinkping him03:20
infinityMez: Fire away.03:20
jelknerajmitch: would you be so kind as to answer a zope3 question for me?03:21
Mezah :D lol - I just msgd you03:21
Mezinfinity: at the moment - scim in breezy is tragically broken.03:21
Meza lot of people are requesting a backport.03:21
Meznow - usually this wouldnt be possible - due to C++ ABI transitions03:21
jelknerraphink: i'm thinking of filing a bug report, which might be the simplest way to address this problem?03:22
Mezhowever-  from recent work on the KDE backports - we've worked out a way to replace the control file for breezy03:22
Mezso - it would be possible to backport scim and make a lot of people happy03:22
raphinkjelkner: might help03:22
Mezhowever - this would mean causing a delta between ubuntu and debian solely for backporting this package03:22
Mezshould I go ahead and make the changes and request a backport? or is creating the delta not worth it03:23
jelknerraphink: are all bugs in malone these days?03:23
infinityMez: I don't like the sounds of that.  Can we not find out WHY it's "tragically broken" in breezy and fix it?03:23
raphinkjelkner: iirc yes03:23
raphinkhmm celestia crashes with nvidia card here :s03:23
Mezinfinity, apparently it's just an old buggy version.03:23
raphinkvery badly03:23
Mezsince then theres been a lot of work on scim because they've had data to work from etc etc.03:24
infinityMez: Not to mention that rewriting control during build is hopelessly sketchy.03:24
Mezinfinity, true - but not that hard to do - it's working for KDE backports03:24
Mez(depend on base-files - check lsb_release for version - and then replace control file as neccessary)03:25
MezIt's really only to replace the package name changes for the c++ ABI transition03:25
infinityOh, I know HOW to do it.  That doesn't make it any less wrong.03:25
jelknerraphink: what does iirc mean?03:26
Mezinfinity, I know it's wrong... 03:26
raphinkjelkner: if I remember well03:26
Mezinfinity, but well - we're not allowed to do manual backports03:26
jelknerthanks!03:26
Mezhmm03:26
Mezunless I can convince mdz to let me build a package for -updates03:26
infinityWell, can we get a handle on what "tragically broken" means?03:27
Mezone sec03:27
Mezlemme get a user who can explain03:27
Mezfreeflying - care to explain ?03:28
freeflyingMez: I don't think scim broken in breezy at all 03:29
Mezo_O03:29
Mezgoing completely against what I've been told by lots of other people :D03:29
freeflyingMez: as u know the changes in dapper is just the renanme of binary package 03:29
Mezfreeflying, yes - but from what I've heard - the breezy version of scim crashes nearly all the time03:30
freeflyingand we have test that scim-1.4.2 can works fine in breezy 03:30
Mezfreeflying, I'm on about whats wrong with the version currently in breezy03:31
Meznot the one in dapper03:31
freeflyingMez: the changelog of scim-1.4.4 have pointed that up-to-date release havs fixed some bugs 03:31
Mezinfinity from what I can gather - it causes problems with firefox and a few other packages03:32
freeflyingMez: sure 03:32
freeflyingMez: like acobat , realplay using libstdc++503:33
Mezwhat other problems does it cause?03:33
freeflyingMez: and the version is too out-of-date in breezy 03:34
infinityfreeflying: Out of date versions aren't really a concern, I want concrete bugs.03:34
Mezwhat do you mean by "too out of date"03:34
infinitySo far, I see this one: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/scim/+bug/256503:34
Ubugtumalone bug 2565 in scim "[Breezy Colony 5] scim refuses to start, scim-setup segfaults" [Critical,Needs info]  03:35
freeflyingscim in breezy is 1.0.2 , and upstream release now is 1.4.403:35
infinityAnd if I had to guess, I'd bet that could be fixed with some reasonably small updates.03:35
infinityBut... <shrug>03:35
infinityMez: If you want to do the control hack and request a backport, go ahead.  I won't stop you.03:36
infinityMez: It seems easier at this point to do that than to do a proper bugfix upload to -updates.03:36
Mezinfinity, I'd rather you said that you'd approve :D03:36
Mezinfinity - or a "backport" to -updates03:36
Mezlol03:36
Amaranthinfinity: _anything_ is better than "doesn't work at all and makes all my apps die"03:36
infinityMez: A "backport" to -updates is out of the question.03:37
Mezinfinity, i can understand that03:37
infinityAmaranth: It works for some input methods, and some others break.  That's not "broken for everyone, OMG, update it now!"03:37
mdzMez: ?03:41
Mezmdz: was pretty much the above that was just discussed with infinity - though I'd like your opinion on it too03:41
mdzwhat's your question?03:42
Mez(control hack for scim to make it backportable so people with scim problems (seems to be a lot)) have a working version of scim03:42

JaneWneuralis: thanks. The specs all got a bit tangled and it wasn't clear who was doing what for a while ;)09:29

HrdwrBoBit doesn't update module-init-tools11:20
HrdwrBoBbefore the kernel11:20
HrdwrBoBwhich builds a broken initrd11:20
KamionHrdwrBoB: but just about everything that's in the initramfs should call update-initramfs11:21
Kamionso even if the first one breaks, you should eventually get a working one11:21
Kamionit does mean the initramfs gets regenerated rather a lot during big upgrade11:21
Kamions11:21
HrdwrBoBKamion: well.. I upgraded, and for some reason it didn't update module-init-tools at all11:22
HrdwrBoBthough I think I was just getting the kernel11:22
Kamionthat would be a separate problem ...11:22
HrdwrBoBwhich didn't depend on module-init-tools even though it does11:22
Kamiononly sort of11:22
Kamiondependencies from the kernel are always awkward11:22
Kamionbut actually, I beg to differ ...11:23
Kamion Package: linux-image-2.6.15-15-38611:23
Kamion Version: 2.6.15-15.2111:23
Kamion Depends: initramfs-tools (>= 0.36ubuntu6), coreutils | fileutils (>= 4.0), module-init-tools (>= 3.2.1-0ubuntu1)11:23
HrdwrBoBis that the latest version11:23
HrdwrBoBit failed with a -Q not understood problem11:23
Kamionmodule-init-tools | 3.2.2-1ubuntu3 |        dapper | source, amd64, i386, powerpc11:23
Kamion-Q has been there for a while though, I think11:23
HrdwrBoBthat'll do it11:23
HrdwrBoBwell.. the version I had didn't have -Q11:24
Kamionah, 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 didn't11:24
HrdwrBoBwhich I'm pretty sure is breezy11:24
Kamionspecifically that version - older and newer ones did11:24
Kamionmodule-init-tools | 3.2-pre7-0ubuntu4 |        breezy | source, amd64, i386, powerpc11:24
=== Emerson [n=emerson@c-24-92-157-187.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
HrdwrBoBoh, haha11:24
Kamion-Q was added in 3.1-rel-2ubuntu211:25
Kamionit's not the kernel itself that's calling modprobe though11:26
HrdwrBoBtrue11:26
HrdwrBoBbut the kernel will never boot correctly without an initrd that'll boot properly which will never boot properly without the right modprobe11:27
Kamionthat indicates, though, that the dependency should be elsewhere11:27
HrdwrBoByeah11:28
Kamionwhat were you upgrading from? definitely breezy?11:28
Emersonbtw, running Dapper, only minor issue I ran into was with nvidia-glx ...  11:28
HrdwrBoBI'm almost 100% certain11:29
HrdwrBoBalso, there's no 686-smp? I assume that's deliberate 11:29
Kamionsee the changelog11:29
Kamion-686 does automatic SMP now11:30
Kamionbreezy's modprobe definitely supports -Q11:30
Kamionanyway, I think you should file a bug on initramfs-tools asking that it depend on some suitable version of module-init-tools11:30
HrdwrBoByeah I'll do so11:30
Kamionsince it uses modprobe -Qb, it should depend on module-init-tools (>= 3.2.1-0ubuntu2)11:31
EmersonKamion: am I wrong but isn't all x86 doing auto SMP now?11:32
KamionEmerson: correct11:32
KamionEmerson: HrdwrBoB asked about -686, not all x86, so I answered the question he asked :)11:32
Emersonlol11:32
ograKamion, cdimage worked fine now, thanks a lot.... one note though, having a known_hosts file prepared for the publishing hosts to just copy in place would be helpful 11:34
Kamionit's only a problem once per user, so I've never really had the interest to fix that up11:35

Kamionthere were no changes in translatable text between 20051026ubuntu15 and 20051026ubuntu1612:28
WaterSevenUbKamion, well... my files were slightly different namely in the amount of text per line12:29
Kamionso this stuff will look wrong for netboot images, but very few people will actually see it in that case12:29
KamionMEDIA_TYPE will generally be "CD-ROM", which seems to look o12:29
Kamionok12:29
Kamionline length of .po files is irrelevant and in fact gets clobbered by msgcat anyway, so I don't care12:30
Kamionyou should generally run your files through msgcat to produce a version in canonical form though12:30
KamionI'll do that with your file now12:30
WaterSevenUbKamion, yes... majority of cases will be "CD-ROM" and for more complicated stuff the sort of people that do it are used to English.12:31

lemstohi there :D01:58
lemstoi've a question about dependencies: Why is it needed to install both totem/gstreamer and rythmbox, i mean in debian i could install totem OR rythmbox (or both...)02:00
Kamionlemsto: you don't have to keep ubuntu-desktop installed if you don't want to02:00
KamionI mean, it's what we provide and support, but if you don't want all of it then you can remove it02:01
lemstodummy package as ubuntu-desktop and other ubuntu-omething are already removed :p02:01
lemstoi wanted to install rythmbox and dependencies oblige to instal totem with02:01
lemsto(im using breezy)02:02
Kamionthat's not the case in dapper any more02:03

Ubugtumalone bug 18518 in rhythmbox "rhythmbox dependancy problems" [Normal,Fix released]  02:03
KamionI think it was before the libtotem-plparser* package was created for the library, so at that point rhythmbox had to depend on totem to get that library02:04
lemstoi see02:04
seb128exact02:04
seb128now it's splitted and we use the lib02:05
Kamionpresumably it was just an oversight that the dependency wasn't dropped in breezy02:05

fabbioneKeybuk: i will test monday.. i am not in the mood for a reboot now04:55
ograMithrandir, btw, thanks for the first working ppc liveCD, will make many people happy04:55
mdzjanimo: if you move to the new versions and they don't work, requiring newer versions of some dependencies, you will be in a very unfortunate position04:55
Keybukfabbione: it pretty much does that for everyone ... I've no idea why Debian people seem to like it, every time I've ever had it dragged onto my machine, I've lost DNS04:55

janimoand have built debs out of them this week so they're closer to what dapper will have04:56
Keybukfabbione: it's in universe04:56
janimomdz, there are 4 libarries and about 6 apps and over a dozen panel plugins04:56
janimobesides the plugins I have tested most04:57
fabbioneKeybuk: yeah i know.. it's make utterly sure it's not installed.. EVER04:57
mdzjanimo: I know that it's always tempting to bring in the latest features and satisfy user requests, the most important consideration is to produce a solid stable release on time, and there isn't much time left04:57
ograMithrandir, the usplash timeout should be enhanced for the ppc live version ... i saw the last 5 messages in cleartext ...04:57
ogra(but thats trivial)04:58
mdzjanimo: we are comfortable doing this with GNOME because they have a very reliable schedule. we know that they will be stabilizing at the same time that we are04:58
mdzjanimo: and we start tracking development right at the start of our release cycle04:58
janimomdz, while xfce don't have a reliable schedule this time their matches ubuntus'04:58
Mithrandirogra: it's 60 seconds.04:58
ograhmm 04:58
janimomdz, at least some apps (thunar file maanger) we already use since it is decouple from the rest of xfce04:59
Mithrandirogra: what's the last message before where it switched?04:59
ographew, i'll have to re-test ...04:59
sladenogra: get whatever is producing those message to send usplash a 'ping' to reset the watchdog04:59
janimomdz, I understand your concern, but this really does not have bugs at least not many more than the 4.204:59
janimobranch04:59
sladenogra: the timeout should probably be way less than 60seconds otherwise it's an entire minute between an error occuring and the user seeing it05:00
ograsladen, i dont think there was an error 05:00
janimothere are 4-5 decoupled apps each written by one developer more or less and not interacting much with the rest05:00
ograit just vanished and continued booting in textmode05:00
janimoWM, panel, desktop manager, file manager etc.05:00
Mithrandirsladen: it needs to be increased on the live cd.05:00
mdzjanimo: if it only involves updates to xfce packages, then I'll defer the decision to you.  I just want to be sure that you have considered this carefully and understand the risks05:01
janimomdz, sure as I said it does not affect anything besides xfce packages05:01
mdzjanimo: we will not be able to delay the release or risk destabilizing Ubuntu proper for Xubuntu05:01
sladenMithrandir: if the it's 60seconds and the timeout has expired, that means the status hasn't been updated for 60seconds, which is a bit frustrating for the user05:01
ograMithrandir, i've set it to 120 in ltsp to cover even the real slow clients ...05:01
sladenMithrandir: can you send it progress updates for whatever is taking that long05:02
ograit didnt feel slow  ...05:02

Keybukmdz: yeah, it turns out that launchpad published the wrong upload; so 9 was DTRT on my laptop, but the wrong thing ended up in the archive05:34
KamionRiddell: i.e. if you're a handler that's been called from Qt's main loop and you want to display something (let's say, ask a question) before returning, is there a way to call the main loop again until you get a response to whatever you want and then drop back to the original handler?05:34

Riddellso they can work even when the main main loop isn't running05:35
Keybuk(which I've now finished and uploaded as -10)05:35
KamionRiddell: ok, so that's good for dialogs - what about if it's not a dialog?05:35
Kamionas in, if you want to wait until the user hits Next or something05:36
Riddellwell, you can just disable or ignore anything else?05:36

KamionRiddell: I'm trying to rearrange espresso.debconffilter so that it can be used without having to quit out of gtk's main loop to do so05:37

mjg59jdub: I'm not sure. With luck it's just a matter of reprogramming the palette, but I'm not sure how much of an issue that is with vga1607:33

mdkecertainly none that are update to dapper gui08:57
mdzI can show them how to make screenshots in vmware or something08:57
mdkeok, so on that page I should include instructions about how to do the described feature? Like "open x prog, do this, etc"?08:58
mdzbut they will need to know what actions they should be demonstrating08:58
mdzyes, that would be a great help08:58
mdkeright, ok08:58
mdkelast last thing.08:58
mdkeis the gui frozen now?08:58
mdkeif not, we should probably try to identify things for them to start on which won't change08:58
mdkeif the artwork is going to change, it will make things a bit tricky08:59
Burgworkgai might be a good starting point08:59
mdzit's not frozen until UI freeze08:59
mdzthe artwork will definitely change08:59

mdzwould you mind having a phone call with todd/bryan?09:00
mdkenot at all, he has both our numbers now09:00
mdzI think it would greatly accelerate things if we had a conference call and talked this out as a group09:00
mdzok09:00
mdzand mine09:00
mdzplease email some possible times for early next week09:00
mdkeok, sure09:00
mdzand we'll do that09:01
mdkeBurgwork, do you wanna get together over the weekend and build up that wiki page?09:01
Burgworkmdz, I already spoke with bryan yesterday. He and I are going to chat some more today09:01
mdzbryan may be able to talk with you over the weekend, though I'll be unavailable09:01
mdzBurgwork: oh, good09:01
Burgworkmdke, sure, but we have to plan now, as I don't know if I will have internet at home or not09:01

Burgworkwe want about 10 animations?09:02
mdkethat's the idea09:03
Burgworkmdz, how long is espresso expected to take?09:03
Burgworkthe actual install09:03
Burgworkalso, how big are the animations going to be?09:03
=== segfault [i=carlos@ubuntu/member/segfault] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mdzBurgwork: unknown as yet; Kamion will have the best estimate09:04
mdzprobably on the order of 10 or 15 minutes?09:05
Burgworkok, so 10 animations at a minute and a half seems reasonable09:05
mdzbig as in pixels, or bytes?09:05
Burgworkpixels09:05
mdzthey'll make them whatever size we want, I imagine09:05
mdzI think a minute is probably too long for most of the segments; we should keep them short and snapy09:05
mdzand we can play as many as will fit during the installation09:06
Burgworkhowever it is somewhat constrained by the actual screen size and what else needs to be displayed09:06
=== mdke thinks the tech guys can see to that, but we need to get the subject matter sorted asap
Burgworkthe actual size of the final animation does change what we put into it, imo09:07
mdzsay 320x24009:07
Burgworkok good09:08
mdkeBurgwork, how about you have a go at that wiki page in the next few hours, then I'll take a look this evening and try and sort out some storyboarding, since I'll have some time tomorrow/sunday09:08

Burgworkmdke, no09:48
mdke:(09:49
mdkethat's a shame, from a documentation perspective it's tricky: we have to say "to install X, open Y program, do a search, if you can't find it, open Z program"09:49
Burgworkya09:49
Burgworkthe idea with commondesktop hooks it to make the documentation useless09:50

=== rajasun [n=maximusp@bb219-74-228-32.singnet.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mdkeyou can't install everything automatically tho. But if that is implemented it would be an improvement, yeah09:53
Burgworkyes, for dapper we are still stuck09:54
=== mdke plays with the idea of just using synaptic in documentation
mvomdke: it's a tricky problem. if we want to display everything, we need to tell the user the concept of packages and dependencies09:54
mdkemvo, how about not displaying everything, but having everything accessible in the search option09:55
mdkeso, if a user reads the documentation and sees he needs gstreamer-plugins-bad, he can search for it and install it09:55
mdkeeven though it isn't in the categories on the left09:55

mvomdke: in our current g-a-i a search is really a filter (like in epiphanys bookmarks or in rythmbox, so that won't work unfortunately09:57
mvoI agree with you that it's supoptimal to have two applications for the same task09:58
netdurdid you set epyphany as default browser for dapper?09:58
=== mdke nods
mdkenetdur, yes09:58
mdkenetdur, argh, I mean, I personally did09:58
mdkeubuntu didn't09:58
mvomdke: for selected packages (like the gstreamer stuff), we could add a pseudo package for that09:58
mdkemvo, the search can't be expanded, maybe for dapper+1?09:58
netdurmdke, would be wise choose for ubuntu too!09:59
Amaranthubuntu won't, afaik09:59
netdurI know09:59
mdkenetdur, yeah09:59
mdkemvo, problem is, I was just using gstreamer as an example, there must be loads of things that a user might look for09:59
mvomdke: I think so, yes. we'll switch to smart most likely and that means we need to rework our tools anyway09:59
mvomdke: *nod*09:59
mdkemvo, what do you think we should suggest to users for documentation? use synaptic all the time, or use gai, then try synaptic if they don't find it?10:00
Amaranthswitch to smart?10:01
HiddenWolfmdke: gai is/was quite limited, introduce them to searching in synaptic would be my suggestion10:02
mdkemvo, by the way, gai goes to sleep when I try searching for "gstreamer", have you got a bug like that already?10:02
mvomdke: did you typed it into the search field and pressed enter?10:03
mdkeyes10:03
HiddenWolfmvo: wow, i take it back10:03
HiddenWolfgai looks good10:03

mdkemvo, heh, great service, thanks10:03
HiddenWolfmvo: while searching the interface should not go grey10:04
mvoHiddenWolf: thanks :)10:04
mdkemvo, any thoughts on the documentation question?10:04
mvomdke: it's a hard one. I *think* you should point them to synaptic for the "complicated" stuff10:04
mvoI mean, g-a-i should be pretty self-explaining10:05
mdkeok, i think we'll have to do that10:05
mvoit has very few buttons nowdaydays10:05
HiddenWolfmdke: gai invites to click on the sections10:05
mdkeeach thing to install should say whether to install it with gai or synaptic10:05
HiddenWolfmdke: they might be discouraged if they don't find it in the right section or something.10:05
mdkeit's a lot of work to check them all though10:05
mvomdke: you mean, you search, it finds gstreamer-bad and says it should be installed with synaptic?10:05
mvomdke: or do you mean in the current documentation?10:06
mvomdke: where is that located?10:06
mdkei mean in the documentation10:06
