| kwwii | wow, inkscape 4.4pre3 is nifty-doodle | 12:05 |
|---|---|---|
| kwwii | anyone packaged that yet? | 12:06 |
| bddebian | It's all yours :) | 12:08 |
| apachelogger | kwwii: have the found usability yet? :P | 12:09 |
| kwwii | apachelogger: sure, they just hide it behind a key combination | 12:10 |
| kwwii | it is art-emacs | 12:10 |
| apachelogger | ah, of course | 12:10 |
| kwwii | by developers, for developers | 12:10 |
| kwwii | but they have crappy new tango icons | 12:10 |
| apachelogger | Oo | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | bah | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | grml | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | kwwii: at least better than the old? | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | kwwii: shall I make you a package? | 12:11 |
| kwwii | it would be cool for everyone to test it | 12:12 |
| kwwii | it really does have a few improvements | 12:12 |
| kwwii | not in the interface so much, except the palette improvements | 12:12 |
| kwwii | (now it is like corel draw was 15 years ago) | 12:12 |
| kwwii | the node handling is better | 12:13 |
| apachelogger | lol | 12:13 |
| apachelogger | mem-usage reduced? | 12:13 |
| kwwii | hehe, don't get too expectant | 12:13 |
| kwwii | it is like, they take the idea of packaging for mac and then apply it to linux | 12:13 |
| apachelogger | oioi | 12:14 |
| kwwii | the biggest problem I see with inkscape still is the level of accuracy of the algorithms used to work with paths | 12:19 |
| kwwii | just make a rounded box, with equal rounding on both sides, and then outset it | 12:20 |
| kwwii | it looses everything...almost looks comical | 12:20 |
| kwwii | funny as hell is that in the preferences every number is listed to the 4th decimal point | 12:22 |
| kwwii | like it is that accurate | 12:22 |
| neoncode | What on earth is gtk+-2.0? | 12:47 |
| apachelogger | gtk+ in development snapshot 2.0 :P | 12:49 |
| neoncode | Apparently FIrefox Bon Echo needs it... is it in reops? | 12:49 |
| apachelogger | hopefully, gtk+ 2.0 is not the newest I think | 12:50 |
| neoncode | Ah... I think i found it.... | 12:50 |

| neoncode | bddebian: What? do you know what it is? | 01:32 |
| bddebian | I don't know much about it but have seen it in a few packages | 01:33 |
| neoncode | Bon Echo's configure script says i need one. | 01:33 |
| bddebian | neoncode: I believe it's part of Qt | 01:35 |
| bddebian | try qt3-dev-tools | 01:35 |
| bddebian | Or qt4-dev if the packages uses qt4-x11 | 01:35 |
| === neoncode installs qt3-dev-tools and runs bon echo's conigure script again | ||

| === neoncode hugs bddebian xD | ||
| bddebian | Heh :-) | 01:37 |
| neoncode | ok new problem... the qtlibs.. | 01:37 |
| neoncode | I rember needing those before... what was the package... | 01:38 |
| === neoncode goes to interigate ubotu about qtlibs | ||
| neoncode | damn... he's a load of help... | 01:39 |
| bddebian | libqt3-x | 01:39 |
| neoncode | there should be a simple app that allows you to install comman build stuff like build-essensal and various libarys... | 01:39 |
| bddebian | so libqt3-mt or libqt3-mt-dev, etc | 01:39 |
| bddebian | Well qt isn't exactly "common" :-) | 01:40 |
| bddebian | apt-cache dump |grep libqt ;-) | 01:40 |
| neoncode | I've noticed that i've needed it a lot when i compile stuff | 01:40 |
| neoncode | "configure: error: Qt Mozilla requires at least version 3.2.0 of Qt" and I have 3.3 according to adept.. eh? | 01:42 |
| neoncode | oh i'll just build the thing without qt | 01:46 |
| bddebian | Check how configure is checking for qt | 01:47 |
| neoncode | how do I do that? | 01:47 |
| bddebian | Is this a new package? | 01:48 |
| neoncode | bddebian: I'm trying to build Firefox Bon Echo Beta 3 | 01:48 |
| bddebian | Ah | 01:49 |
| bddebian | neoncode: Which libqt did you install? | 01:49 |
| neoncode | libqt3-mt-dev | 01:50 |
| bddebian | Oh and check configure.in to see how it's looking for qt | 01:50 |
| bddebian | Probably something like AC_CHECK_LIB(qt, foo, bar) | 01:50 |
| neoncode | I told it to use GTK this time anyway... | 01:50 |
| neoncode | I think it worked... i'm running make... | 01:51 |

| DaSkreech | neoncode: Well read the first link and let me know when you get the gist | 06:59 |
| === neoncode is a tad busy right now... sorry | ||
| DaSkreech | Ok cool mind if I just prattle on then? | 07:04 |
| DaSkreech | or you want to hear this? | 07:04 |
| Hobbsee | DaSkreech: so what will you do? extend that, or write your own? | 07:05 |
| neoncode | i don't mind prattle all you like | 07:05 |
| DaSkreech | Well it's the same basis but requres a good deal more user interaction | 07:06 |
| DaSkreech | Ok so GIS is a system of overlaying information onto a global map or global coordiantes | 07:07 |
| DaSkreech | sort of like GPS for cars except of course much huger | 07:07 |
| Hobbsee | yep | 07:10 |
| DaSkreech | So the data for these modules are normally gathered by some company and then sold for high amounts of money | 07:10 |
| DaSkreech | Hence two things happen. one is that not a lot of data is gathered on things normal people might want and it keeps useful data about the globe out of the hands of people without money | 07:11 |
| DaSkreech | So if there was an easy way to aggregate and collect data that could be filtered by a flexible system you would find a fair number of people who would put in data for the good of all and people who would put in data just because they found it useful | 07:13 |
| Hobbsee | true | 07:14 |
| === Hobbsee wonders if/how this would fit in with LP | ||
| DaSkreech | Right. also if it was easy and obviously crossed borders it would make it more useful for science and researchers | 07:15 |
| DaSkreech | It would be kind of wiki like in that respect | 07:15 |

| DaSkreech | Hmm? | 07:34 |
| chavo | A database for things like hardware setup and stuff like that | 07:34 |
| DaSkreech | chavo: It's there in svn | 07:34 |
| DaSkreech | Start on hacking then :) | 07:35 |
| DaSkreech | It's a pretty nice framework. I like how it allows you to be as paranoid as you like | 07:37 |
| DaSkreech | then if you are possibly "at risk" it can contact you and ask if you would like to offer some more info which you can then turn down if you are paranoid :) | 07:39 |
| DaSkreech | however you can still go and dig up the information without giving up anything | 07:40 |
| DaSkreech | Hobbsee: So? What about it? Am I smoking the wrong stuff? | 07:54 |
| Hobbsee | DaSkreech: sounds interesting - good for the "hey my kde wont start" when i'ts actually from the video drivers that are suddenly playing pu or something | 07:55 |
| === Hobbsee goes back to her conquest of supertux | ||

| Hobbsee | i'm quite bad at them.. | 07:55 |
| DaSkreech | Hobbsee: I think you are mixing up knoware and my idea ;-) | 07:55 |
| DaSkreech | Me too I cheated | 07:56 |
| DaSkreech | I used the level editor on hard levels to see where the secret platforms were | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | well, yeah, that's possible | 07:56 |
| === DaSkreech writes up a full proposal | ||
| DaSkreech | Is sabdfl the right person to put this to? | 07:57 |
| chavo | DaSkreech, would it be possible for say the installer to use the database for things like configuring xorg? | 07:58 |
| DaSkreech | chavo: Hmm? | 07:59 |
| chavo | if it's available of course | 07:59 |
| DaSkreech | Ah knoware | 07:59 |
| chavo | yeah | 07:59 |
| DaSkreech | In short yes | 07:59 |
| chavo | that's the kind of thing I was thinking of | 07:59 |
| DaSkreech | in practicality I think that it would be pretty useless | 07:59 |
| DaSkreech | for an installer I think that would be a bit silly | 08:00 |
| DaSkreech | would be nice if it could reconfigure that after install though | 08:00 |
| DaSkreech | though..... | 08:00 |
| DaSkreech | Yeah I guess it could do | 08:00 |
| Hobbsee | yay, another level gone :) | 08:02 |
| === Hobbsee hasnt cheated yet | ||
| chavo | well one example is the xorg config for my laptop, it writes the wrong horizsync and vertrefresh for the monitor, so it'll only do 640x480 | 08:02 |
| chavo | but putting the right one in and it fixes it | 08:03 |
| DaSkreech | right Yeah I guess if it had a cli query that could work | 08:04 |
| chavo | It's a pretty well known problem and a quick search on google will turn up the solution | 08:04 |
| DaSkreech | well my thoughts on it are that you could build a simple query tree into the installer to make it follow the same basic logic | 08:05 |
| DaSkreech | So if the problem is already known and the fix is already known then put it in the code | 08:06 |
| DaSkreech | No need for a fancy framework for that | 08:06 |
| chavo | no | 08:07 |
| DaSkreech | Hobbsee: Which level? | 08:10 |
| Hobbsee | DaSkreech: er, i think ij ust conquered 8, then got 9 | 08:10 |
| Hobbsee | i was having a lot of trouble with 8 | 08:10 |
| DaSkreech | 18 more to go :-) | 08:12 |

| \sh | Riddell: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KubuntuLaunchpadIntegration it should be easy to integrate. | 10:36 |
| \sh | gnome is doing this: mvo wrote a small lib, which gives you a method to hook into the helpmenu and adding new menu entries for LP. We can do this in the same package as gnome does, creating 2 binary packages (liblaunchpad-integration0-kde and liblaunchpad-integration0-gnome | 10:38 |
| \sh | after this, they are patching the gnome sources to add this menu hook to the help menu, that we can do with KHelpMenu() as well | 10:38 |

| \sh | The Omen was released on this date ;) | 10:40 |
| \sh | (remake of the old movie) | 10:40 |
| mornfall | \sh: no i don't mean that (wrt catch-up)... more like why just can't kubuntu go in its own direction instead of tailing ubuntu all the time | 10:41 |
| \sh | mornfall: then we need 3 archives, one for ubuntu-base, ubuntu-gnome and ubuntu-kde, ubuntu-base for all the underlaying technological things like hal, dbus, acpi kernel etc.pp the plain system without the desktop, then gnome and then kde | 10:42 |
| mornfall | \sh: why so? | 10:42 |
| mornfall | well, either way | 10:42 |
| \sh | mornfall: because mark wants one single community, doesn't matter if they are using gnome or kde or xfce or <insert your favorite and not invented desktop management system ever here> | 10:43 |
| mornfall | mark is just being silly | 10:43 |
| \sh | mornfall: no. the problem is just that: developer X is using gnome, but responsible for feature Y, after implementing feature Y in ubuntu-base he starts the gnome integration just as a add on, which doesn't work for kubuntu right now. | 10:44 |

| mornfall | \sh: the problem is that communities are social phenomenon, even if centered around technical issues | 11:03 |
| \sh | mornfall: right, but inside a "company" you can fix technical issues and most of the developers tend to work together even in our gnome and kde world ;) | 11:04 |
| \sh | mornfall: but there needs to be an institution which brings them together | 11:04 |
| mornfall | if the institution pays money to the people yes | 11:05 |
| \sh | a position like a "communication officer" or a project manager who knows the changes in ubuntu-base, and can try to synchronize the development between all different desktop systems | 11:05 |
| mornfall | but it's still not a community in the sense that if company stops paying money people will disappear in all different directions | 11:05 |
| mornfall | communication officer, that's ... interesting... but it doesn't make one community out of two, it just keeps both better informed | 11:06 |
| \sh | mornfall: this is one of the problems all companies in our FOSS world have...see RH and the missing "RH KDE Package Guru" Bero | 11:06 |

| danimo | \sh: parse error | 03:47 |

| \sh | danimo: for a distro it's hell when they ship it from kdenetwork | 03:48 |

| kbrooks | all right. | 06:14 |

| === kbrooks wonders how to phrase it | ||
| kbrooks | lets see. | 06:14 |
| \sh | tvo: I would say after max. 1 month | 06:14 |
| kbrooks | anyone here might have heard of EasyUbuntu | 06:15 |
| \sh | kbrooks: including me? | 06:15 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | \sh, this is quite possible :) | 06:15 |
| kbrooks | now, you might not care about EU, but we have a MAJOR bug | 06:15 |
| kbrooks | that MUST be fixed with the kubuntu team's cooperation | 06:15 |
| kbrooks | this bug only occurs on Kubuntu | 06:15 |
| === \sh is living in the EU and other Kubuntu Devs tooo | ||
| Kamping_Kaiser | :%S/cooperation/help | 06:16 |
| kbrooks | EU = EasyUbuntu | 06:16 |
| kbrooks | the bug occurs when a software is about to be configured (in the pre-config stage) | 06:17 |
| ubijtsa | kbrooks: is there a Malone # for the defect? | 06:17 |
| kbrooks | like flash, or java | 06:17 |
| \sh | wtf is easyubuntu? | 06:17 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa: i'll file it when i'm finished explaning | 06:17 |
| kbrooks | \sh: easyubuntu is a tool for users to install codecs, and stuff like that | 06:18 |
| \sh | kbrooks: so something very unsupported and non legal ? | 06:19 |
| kbrooks | \sh: huh? easyubuntu is open source | 06:19 |
| kbrooks | i'm not asking for it to be included in kubuntu | 06:19 |
| \sh | kbrooks: install codecs sounds like win32codecs...;) | 06:19 |
| ubijtsa | If I've understood it right, the 'pre-config' stage has nothing to do with apt or dpkg, but all to do with the easy-ubuntu install tool ? | 06:19 |
| kbrooks | \sh: it can install other stuff too | 06:19 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa: actually... | 06:20 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa: it has something to do with dpkg | 06:20 |
| ubijtsa | in that case it affects all of ubuntu | 06:20 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa: You're jumping to conclusions | 06:20 |
| kbrooks | let me explain the origin of the problem | 06:21 |
| kbrooks | the origin of the problem is that we use apt-get, not adept | 06:22 |
| kbrooks | and print apt-get's output to a log window | 06:22 |
| \sh | kbrooks: adept is just a frontend to apt | 06:22 |
| kbrooks | that's right. | 06:23 |
| kbrooks | \sh: but it's inconsistent | 06:23 |
| \sh | kbrooks: if so, please file a bug on launchpad | 06:24 |
| kbrooks | \sh: i'm a developer of easyubuntu | 06:24 |
| \sh | kbrooks: so a developer of easyubuntu doesn't file bugs? | 06:24 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wait a moment | 06:25 |
| kbrooks | \sh:i don't want to file this bug. it has been filed many times over | 06:25 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | kbrooks, expalain the problem, then talk about a fix | 06:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | dont get sidetracked :) | 06:25 |
| \sh | kbrooks: so mornfall has it on it's todo...please give me an url? | 06:25 |
| mornfall | what again? | 06:25 |
| kbrooks | mornfall: hey | 06:25 |
| mornfall | hey | 06:25 |
| \sh | mornfall: something with easyubuntu | 06:25 |
| mornfall | but, but... | 06:26 |
| mornfall | i have nothing with easyubuntu | 06:26 |
| kbrooks | mornfall: can you make adept accept -o and --set-selections? | 06:26 |
| mornfall | no | 06:26 |
| kbrooks | we're looking for that | 06:26 |
| === ubijtsa is unconvinced. If there is a problem in apt or dpkg, it affects all of ubuntu, as those tools are the same across {,k,x,ed}ubuntu | ||
| \sh | kbrooks: why don't you use apt? | 06:26 |
| kbrooks | wait | 06:26 |
| kbrooks | let me start ALL over | 06:26 |
| mornfall | right, what is the problem | 06:27 |
| kbrooks | adept doesn't accept -o or --set-selections like synaptic does. | 06:28 |
| mornfall | well, patches welcome... sortof... adept is feature frozen | 06:28 |
| mornfall | so it may go to development trunk | 06:28 |
| mornfall | but that doesn't even compile now | 06:28 |
| mornfall | and won't for few more weeks it seems | 06:28 |
| kbrooks | therefore, it is incompatible with synaptic | 06:28 |
| mornfall | so what? :) | 06:28 |
| mornfall | it's has very little to do with synaptic | 06:28 |
| ubijtsa | is it even intended to be? | 06:28 |
| mornfall | i don't see why it should be compatible | 06:28 |
| kbrooks | this bug: https://launchpad.net/products/easyubuntu/+bug/41024 | 06:29 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 41024 in easyubuntu "Install Flash on the Dapper test pkg" [High,Confirmed] | 06:29 |
| kbrooks | occurs on kubuntu | 06:29 |
| kbrooks | as a result of us using apt-get directly | 06:29 |
| mornfall | easyubuntu at pastebin is dead | 06:30 |
| kbrooks | note this comment: "This is probably caused because of the pretty dialogue that installing flash *through apt-get on terminal* brings up (the grey box, blue background)" (emphasis and additional information added by me) | 06:30 |
| mornfall | so the report is sort of useless that way | 06:30 |
| kbrooks | mornfall: see above | 06:30 |
| mornfall | see above where? | 06:30 |
| mornfall | screenshot could help | 06:31 |
| mornfall | or output of apt-get | 06:31 |
| kbrooks | i don't run kubuntu | 06:31 |
| kbrooks | asking for screenshot | 06:32 |
| \sh | kbrooks: but you are running a gui? | 06:33 |
| kbrooks | \sh: ubuntu, yes. but the problem doesn't occur on ubuntu | 06:34 |
| mornfall | well, i couldn't reproduce in xterm | 06:34 |
| mornfall | may be konsole interaction | 06:34 |
| mornfall | and i don't have any ubuntu installation anymore | 06:34 |
| mornfall | so, tough luck | 06:34 |
| mornfall | it's non-free anyway | 06:34 |
| mornfall | so i don't quite care | 06:34 |
| === ubijtsa does not understand why apt-get is failing unless the package itself being installed is broken, or the parser of the output from apt/dpkg is b0rked | ||
| kbrooks | mornfall: what's non-free? | 06:34 |
| mornfall | java | 06:34 |
| mornfall | and flash | 06:34 |
| kbrooks | mornfall: just checking | 06:34 |
| mornfall | basically all the troublesome packages :) | 06:35 |
| \sh | mornfall: ah well, didn't we have this problem with java actually? | 06:35 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa: it's not failing. | 06:35 |
| mornfall | \sh: we do | 06:35 |
| mornfall | \sh: and now i am starting to think it's not adept bug at all ;) | 06:35 |
| \sh | so it's a know bug for 2 of the packages. | 06:35 |
| mornfall | \sh: (wrt not accepting input) | 06:35 |
| mornfall | well | 06:35 |
| === kbrooks thinks of a solution | ||
| kbrooks | hmmm. hold on | 06:36 |
| mornfall | nonfree packages not working is the last thing i care about | 06:36 |
| \sh | kbrooks: try to convince sub that java has to be opensource and forget about flash, because it's most of the time not needed? ;) | 06:36 |
| \sh | s/sub/sun/ | 06:37 |
| kbrooks | \sh: um, how do i get selections? | 06:37 |
| === kbrooks forgot | ||
| kbrooks | its a command in debconf-utils | 06:37 |
| === ubijtsa never had a problem with installing flash or java, whether using kubuntu, ubuntu or xubuntu | ||
| kbrooks | \sh: nm, found it | 06:38 |
| ubijtsa | then again, I know what to look for, and generally use aptitude | 06:38 |
| \sh | ubijtsa: which is somehow no solution to broken debconf scripts ;) | 06:39 |
| kbrooks | a temporary work around for this problem would bbe to change debconf/frontend to something else | 06:40 |
| kbrooks | *i* don't know what | 06:40 |
| ubijtsa | \sh: very true, but that means the package is broken, not kubuntu, apt or dpkg | 06:40 |
| \sh | ubijtsa: right | 06:41 |
| kbrooks | ubijtsa, \sh. this is just a easyubuntu bug, not a package bug. it affeccts numberous users | 06:41 |
| kbrooks | i bneed a real solution, not a work around | 06:41 |
| kbrooks | hacky* | 06:41 |
| \sh | kbrooks: easyubuntu is not officially supported, post a bugfix with patch to this very special bug url..and we try to fix it | 06:41 |
| ubijtsa | kbrooks: as they say where I work, you can have a workaround fast, or a real solution in a while | 06:42 |
| === ubijtsa ponders if playing with TERM settings might work around it | ||
| kbrooks | what don't you understand? | 06:43 |
| kbrooks | @ \sh and ubijtsa | 06:43 |
| kbrooks | don't ignore me. :-) | 06:44 |
| ubijtsa | uhm | 06:44 |
| \sh | kbrooks: what I understand is: "Ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu doesn't have problems actually, and the problems kubuntu has is quite known. But easyubuntu is not supported by all means, has problems. So it's a easyubuntu bug or a debconf bug, which we can't fix without a proper bugreport" | 06:44 |
| kbrooks | \sh: what don't you understand though about this? | 06:45 |
| === ubijtsa don't care at the moment, is off te a party next door... | ||
| \sh | kbrooks: where is the launchpad bug url which describes this bug | 06:46 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | have fun ubijtsa | 06:46 |
| kbrooks | \sh: i'll file. i forgot to file | 06:46 |
| kbrooks | \sh: give me 5 minutes | 06:46 |
| \sh | kbrooks: I don't even know what packages you are installing for a base installation | 06:46 |

| noel | Hi guys, when the kopete 0.12 will be available on dapper-backport? | 08:35 |
| goldenear | Riddell: Could a QT4 app be part of edgy ? | 08:43 |
| goldenear | Riddell: I'm asking that because Koos is wondering if it should not directly go to QT4 (KDE 4 in mind) for Oskar (the media player) | 08:44 |
| danimo | goldenear: another player? | 08:46 |
| goldenear | The next version of kmplayer, renamed Oskar for the occasion :) | 08:46 |
| danimo | ah! | 08:47 |
| goldenear | with a new, more functional GUI | 08:47 |
| toma | kmplayer is already functional | 08:47 |
| goldenear | of course it is... | 08:48 |
| goldenear | and it's specially very good for video embedded in webpages | 08:48 |
| goldenear | but the standalone player lacks many functions | 08:49 |
| toma | ? | 08:49 |
| === danimo has to use both Kaffeine (for DVB-T) an kmplayer (in webpages) | ||
| danimo | this is sorta nuts | 08:50 |
| goldenear | that's why we're working on oskar | 08:50 |
| danimo | plus kmplayer gives me wrong gamma values | 08:50 |
| danimo | goldenear: does mplayer provide dvb support? | 08:50 |
| goldenear | oskar should not use mplayer | 08:51 |
| danimo | goldenear: but? | 08:51 |
| danimo | directly using phonon? | 08:51 |
| goldenear | kmplayer, unlike its name sounds, is not a frontend to mplayer | 08:52 |
| goldenear | it can use sevral frontends Xine, Gstreamer and mplayer | 08:53 |
| toma | backends | 08:53 |
| goldenear | all these backend will ofcourse be replaced by Phonon for KDE4 | 08:53 |
| goldenear | oops :/ yes backends :) | 08:54 |
| danimo | goldenear: the question is if phonon is going to support DVB and stuff | 08:54 |
| danimo | goldenear: and did you talk to the guys? does it make any sense to use KDE 4 / Qt 4 port for a joint rewrite? | 08:55 |
| goldenear | I would like Oskar to be ready for edgy... but if the choise is to go directly to KDE4 it obviously won't be | 08:55 |
| danimo | goldenear: who goes to KDE 4? | 08:56 |
| goldenear | Phonon should support any feature a multimedia frame can have... so DVB should be part of phonon | 08:56 |
| danimo | goldenear: that's not phonon's design-goal | 08:56 |
| danimo | goldenear: : better check back with matthias about that | 08:56 |
| danimo | goldenear: although I agree that DVB-T support might make sense | 08:57 |
| goldenear | Oskar will keep support DVB anyway | 08:57 |
| === noel [n=noel@210.4.41.251] has left #kubuntu-devel ["Konversation] | ||
| goldenear | <danimo> goldenear: who goes to KDE 4? <-- Koos, the dev of kmplayer, is thinking about directly go to QT4 | 08:59 |
| danimo | goldenear: that makes sense | 09:00 |
| goldenear | but KDE4 is for Edgy +2 | 09:00 |
| danimo | goldenear: but "but if the choise is to go directly to KDE4 it obviously won't be" sounds like edgy would be based on KDE 3 | 09:00 |
| danimo | err, KDE 4 | 09:00 |
| goldenear | More than 1 year to wait.... | 09:01 |
| goldenear | and I don't think a QT4 app can work with KDE 3.5 | 09:01 |
| goldenear | especialy for kpart | 09:01 |
| danimo | goldenear: well it's pretty simple | 09:01 |
| danimo | goldenear: if you want to reach your users within the next 6 months, go KDE 3, but take a look at KDE 4 to prevent ugly design decisions | 09:02 |
| danimo | (like using QPtrList, etc) | 09:02 |
| === patrick__ [n=patrick@174.Red-88-0-150.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel | ||
| danimo | goldenear: I would defer the "complete rewrite" until then though | 09:03 |
| goldenear | At the moment, Oskar should only be a rewrite of the kmplayer UI | 09:03 |
| danimo | goldenear: and just mess with the guy as much as you can isolate those two things | 09:03 |
| danimo | goldenear: ok, then redo the gui in KDE3 | 09:03 |
| danimo | really | 09:04 |
| goldenear | danimo: I've already redisgned the UI with QTdesigner | 09:05 |
| goldenear | it's a simple .ui file at the moment | 09:06 |
| danimo | goldenear: is designer powerful enough for your purpose? | 09:06 |
| goldenear | yes it is | 09:06 |
| goldenear | all the UI is ready now | 09:06 |
| goldenear | it's only needing a few code to be fully ready (side panel) | 09:08 |
| goldenear | danimo: If you want to see how will Oskar look like, here is a screen shot: http://goldenear.online.fr/oskar/oscar_ui01.jpg | 09:11 |
| danimo | goldenear: uhm, that looks pretty much like kaffeine :) | 09:13 |
| goldenear | a little bit yes | 09:14 |
| danimo | no honestlys, what makes kmplay "unique"? | 09:15 |
| danimo | or oskar | 09:15 |
| goldenear | kmplayer is build on a very solid basis | 09:15 |
| goldenear | and it doesn't hang konqueror :) | 09:16 |
| goldenear | the integration with KDE/Konq is really well done in kmplayer | 09:18 |
| goldenear | oskar will do the same... but with a nice UI for the standalone player too :) | 09:19 |
| === neoncode [n=neoncode@unaffiliated/neoncode] has joined #kubuntu-devel | ||
| Riddell | goldenear: yes, qt4 is cool in edgy | 09:39 |
| Riddell | goldenear: and please please don't call Oskar, osKar | 09:40 |
| Riddell | kbrooks: it is | 09:40 |
| kbrooks | Riddell: ? | 09:40 |
| Riddell | 19:00 < kbrooks> Is python-qt* included in Kubuntu | 09:40 |
| kbrooks | Riddell: ok | 09:41 |
| goldenear | Riddell: but if Oskar uses QT4 and Konq QT3... if will be a problem isn't it ? | 09:41 |
| Riddell | goldenear: you won't be able to do native konqueror plugins | 09:42 |
| danimo | goldenear: just don't do Qt 4 for now | 09:44 |
| goldenear | ok thanks | 09:44 |
| danimo | goldenear: for KDE 4 apps, the downsides of KDE 4 API stability is far worse than the convienence by Qt 4 | 09:45 |
