| angasule_ | every user can read every other user's files by default | 01:56 |
| angasule_ | ok, don't you all answer at once, people | 01:57 |
| LaserJock | I think all linux distros I've ever run did that, depending on the group setup | 01:58 |
| LaserJock | could be wrong though | 01:58 |
| jdub | default umask | 01:58 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: And? | 01:58 |
| angasule_ | you don't think that broken? | 01:58 |
| mjg59 | No | 01:59 |
| angasule_ | I don't see the purpose of everybody being able to see everybody else's private files, but I can see why people wouldn't want that | 01:59 |
| angasule_ | chat logs, emails, porn, some things are meant to be private | 01:59 |
| mjg59 | If the files are private, then there's mechanisms to provide that functionality | 02:00 |
| mjg59 | emails are, by default, private | 02:00 |
| mjg59 | As are chat logs | 02:00 |
| mjg59 | If that's not the case, it's certainly a bug | 02:01 |
| angasule_ | mjg59: chat logs are indeed readable by anyone | 02:01 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: Please file a bug | 02:01 |
| mjg59 | We'll ensure that that's recitified | 02:01 |
| angasule_ | I don't think all the directories in the way are readable, though | 02:01 |
| angasule_ | but still, what if aunt tillie writes in oo.org writer her secret recipe? | 02:02 |
| angasule_ | is she supposed to know what umask she must use? | 02:02 |
| angasule_ | wouldn't it make a lot more sense to keep everything private by default? | 02:02 |
| mjg59 | Having everything private by default makes certain aspects of file sharing between users *much* harder | 02:03 |
| mjg59 | Some people do disagree. We've had this discussion on the mailing lists in the past. | 02:03 |
| angasule_ | mjg59: anything that sharing a certain folder wouldn't solve? | 02:03 |
| mjg59 | Yes, because if you have the default to be unreadable files then people tend to expect you not to be able to list them either | 02:04 |
| angasule_ | also, most kdm themes don't have userlist support (except the default kdm theme that looks like windows 3.1), probably the same situation in gdm | 02:05 |
| angasule_ | mjg59: but I mean, have a certain folder for sharing files, instead of sharing everything by default (and without warning!) | 02:05 |
| angasule_ | I'm currently setting up a family install, and the multi user settings aren't the best, for example the dialog to add new users doesn't give any advice on what groups should a new user belong to (would cdrom be useful? how about audio?) | 02:07 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: Yes. How do users navigate to that folder? | 02:07 |
| === jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| angasule_ | mjg59: it could be /home/common or whatever is proper, here, we use a different partition (so it's in /media ) | 02:08 |
| angasule_ | as I said, what would you do about aunt tillie's secret recipe, or cousin stevie's porn stash? | 02:09 |
| angasule_ | I gave up on teaching my family the laws of thermodynamics, I'm certainly not going to try to explain umask... | 02:09 |

| Kamion | fix the file browser to make it clear when files are public, and easy to change that | 02:10 |
| angasule_ | at the *very* list, it should be made clear that no file is private, and a ~/private_files directory should be visible everywhere | 02:10 |
| Kamion | we should not be polluting default home directories with more crap | 02:11 |
| Kamion | the default home directory should be as empty as possible; there are many good reasons for this | 02:11 |
| HrdwrBoB | or there should be a shared files area | 02:12 |
| HrdwrBoB | to make it easier to 'share' files | 02:12 |
| Kamion | just fix the freaking file browser already | 02:12 |
| angasule_ | HrdwrBoB: which I proposed earlier | 02:12 |
| Kamion | can't be that hard to improve nautilus to make it clearer | 02:12 |
| HrdwrBoB | and less likely that people will have to go into other peoples home directorys | 02:12 |
| angasule_ | Kamion: that pretty much requires explaning permissions to aunt tillie | 02:13 |
| Kamion | no, it really doesn't | 02:13 |
| HrdwrBoB | angasule_: I have my files mounted under /home/storage because there's no real 'proper' place for them | 02:13 |
| Kamion | "this file is public and may be read by all users" -> right-click -> "mark file private" | 02:13 |
| angasule_ | Kamion: you want that string next to every file by default? | 02:13 |
| Kamion | obviously not, but it can be done more subtly, for example with well-chosen icons | 02:14 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Ubiquity seems a touch unstable at the moment | 02:14 |
| Kamion | UI improvements are preferable to breaking Unix for the rest of us | 02:14 |
| angasule_ | also, the filename itself should be private in many cases, like porn | 02:14 |
| mjg59 | Or, rather, it got quite confused at partitioning | 02:14 |
| Kamion | angasule_: same concept, only with directories | 02:14 |
| Kamion | mjg59: you're a bit short on detail ... | 02:15 |
| mjg59 | A dialog appeared telling me that ntfs resizing was impossible before I'd had an opportunity to touch anything | 02:15 |
| angasule_ | Kamion: but you complained about ~/private_files ;) | 02:15 |
| HrdwrBoB | angasule_: nothing to stop you creating it | 02:15 |
| Kamion | angasule_: I complained about creating it on EVERYONE's system | 02:15 |
| mjg59 | "private_files" is difficult | 02:16 |
| Kamion | for one thing, if you're using directory names to convey meaning, remember that you just excluded non-English-speaking users from grasping that meaning | 02:16 |
| Kamion | "Desktop" is bad enough | 02:16 |
| angasule_ | well, the current system is insecure for the sake of some supposed ease of use, and you know what OS does that... | 02:16 |
| angasule_ | don't get me started on languages | 02:17 |
| mjg59 | It's not insecure | 02:17 |
| angasule_ | who the frack got the idea of installing a 200MB language pack right after install? and cancelling the download breaks the install? brilliant! | 02:17 |
| Kamion | angasule_: if you have a problem with the installer, file a bug | 02:17 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: If you have problems, please convey them in a helpful manner | 02:18 |
| angasule_ | it's not really the installer | 02:18 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: We're always happy to look at and fix bugs | 02:18 |
| angasule_ | it's the idea of not including any language | 02:18 |
| angasule_ | save english | 02:18 |
| desrt | it kicks ass being a native english speaker | 02:18 |
| Kamion | mjg59: I'm more or less aware of that problem; I think it's been there since dapper thoug | 02:18 |
| Kamion | angasule_: you're wrong about that; that's not the idea | 02:18 |
| angasule_ | desrt: yeah, well, no native english speakers where I live :P | 02:18 |
| mjg59 | But doing so in hostile tones does not encourage people to do anything, and is against the code of conduct | 02:18 |
| angasule_ | sorry, a bit pissed, I've been messing with the install the whole weekend | 02:19 |
| Kamion | mjg59: it's in ubiquity's partman-auto integration, anyway - it needs to drive partman forward to the resize question in order to find out how to draw the resize bar, but if resizing fails it gets confused | 02:19 |
| desrt | mjg59; you'll understand if he's feeling a bit edgy... | 02:19 |
| angasule_ | the multi-user support could use a few more things | 02:19 |
| angasule_ | for example, when modifying a user's details, modifying several users at the same time would be nice | 02:20 |
| Kamion | I do think we could do with attaching descriptions to groups in some way that the users and groups tool could display | 02:20 |
| angasule_ | so that I can create all the users and then add them all to the cdrom, audio, etc, groups, if I want to | 02:20 |
| Kamion | we already have that documentation in base-passwd - it would just be a matter of exporting it somehow | 02:20 |
| angasule_ | there is, right now, in kubuntu, no indication of what groups are useful to be added to | 02:21 |
| angasule_ | also, the ability to add things to all desktops (for example, a link to a certain folder) | 02:21 |
| mjg59 | angasule_: There is in ubuntu | 02:22 |
| angasule_ | right now, one must modify /etc/skel | 02:22 |
| mjg59 | Also that | 02:22 |
| angasule_ | mjg59: ah :/ I haven't seen it in kubuntu, sorry | 02:22 |
| === angasule_ thinks of what else he can complain about, while his memories are fresh | ||
| Kamion | angasule_: with regard to your comment about cancelling the download breaking the install, is that in the desktop CD installer? | 02:23 |
| Kamion | because that's really not supposed to happen, and I'd like a bug report with log files if it does | 02:23 |
| angasule_ | Kamion: I believe so, it didn't happen to me, but to a friend | 02:23 |
| Kamion | it's meant to be possible to cancel that download harmlessly | 02:23 |
| Kamion | now, if this is dapper (.0, not 6.06.1), then it might well be a known bug | 02:24 |
| Kamion | (and fixed) | 02:24 |
| angasule_ | anyway, the mere requirement of an extra 200MB pack at that point IS a bug, in my opinion | 02:24 |
| Kamion | *shrug* only so much you can fit onto the CD | 02:24 |
| Kamion | the fact that e.g. OOo help, Firefox translations, etc. are incredibly huge isn't one we can do a lot about | 02:24 |
| angasule_ | well, we are just finishing a linux course here, and we had to provide a second CD with extra packages | 02:25 |
| Kamion | assuming that https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/larger-livefs gets done by feature freeze, we'll have a better solution for Edgy in the DVD | 02:25 |
| angasule_ | the language pack was probably the largest one | 02:25 |
| angasule_ | DVDs are still not that common around here | 02:26 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Also, the current network config stuff after install seems to interact badly with upstart | 02:26 |
| angasule_ | unless you're planning to change it to 'linux for human beings in the first world' ;) | 02:26 |
| Kamion | then it's simply a "can't squeeze a quart into a pint pot" problem | 02:26 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: But that's probably something I need to speak to Scott about | 02:26 |
| Kamion | we expect and hope that people in other countries will remaster CDs to provide appropriate language packs by default | 02:26 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: One thing that is worth noting is that not all wireless cards automatically associate with the nearest network | 02:26 |
| Kamion | mjg59: sorry, what network config stuff? | 02:27 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: So if there's no essid specified in the config, they won't associate | 02:27 |
| angasule_ | here, DVDs are not common, and broadband is rare, regular broadband is 256kbps | 02:27 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Oh - dhcp on all interfaces. upstart seems to block on trying to configure the network before starting X | 02:27 |
| jdong | mjg59: yes, including the increasingly popular ipw3945 | 02:27 |
| Kamion | oh, yeah, Scott's problem | 02:27 |
| angasule_ | in fact, kubuntu and ubuntu are only for high end systems by our standards | 02:27 |
| Kamion | I'd like to be able to get network configuration into Ubiquity in some form, but I only just managed to squeeze in grub configuration for edgy, and I doubt I can do netcfg as well befor FFF | 02:28 |
| Kamion | before FF | 02:28 |
| angasule_ | well, high and kind of med, this pc has 256MB of RAM and it doesn't work so badly | 02:28 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Yeah, that's a shame | 02:28 |
| Kamion | I suppose just an ESSID selector *might* be doable, maybe | 02:28 |
| mjg59 | Hm | 02:28 |
| LaserJock | angasule_: do people use Xubuntu then? | 02:28 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Of course, the problem with an ESSID selector is that you then hit problems when the machine is moved elsewhere | 02:28 |
| angasule_ | LaserJock: no, they use windows | 02:28 |
| jdong | Kamion: or you can just networkmanager and call it a day ;) | 02:28 |
| Kamion | but in reality, I'd have to get it done tomorrow, and livecd-access and sane-installer-keyboard need to happen before that ... | 02:28 |
| mjg59 | But possibly that's desirable | 02:28 |
| jdong | Kamion: you know it's tempting :) | 02:28 |
| Kamion | jdong: no, we really can't :P | 02:29 |
| jdong | aww | 02:29 |
| Kamion | it's not tempting, having tried it before | 02:29 |
| Kamion | once bitten, twice shy, and all that | 02:29 |
| jdong | what was wrong with n-m the first time? | 02:29 |
| Kamion | mjg59: I think that's OK - it's a configuration tools problem after that | 02:29 |
| mjg59 | Hm. Didn't we have code that automatically enabled sub-pixel anti-aliasing on LCDs? | 02:29 |
| angasule_ | we used Kubuntu for the course, simply because that's what we know (we're all kde people, with one strong debian user), and the course was for Computer Systems Engineering and Electronics Engineering students, who usually have higher than average computers | 02:29 |
| Kamion | jdong: it had lots of hardware-specific breakage | 02:30 |
| jdong | Kamion: ah, I see, never mind then :) | 02:30 |
| Kamion | mjg59: yes, in casper | 02:30 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: It doesn't seem to work now | 02:30 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: my problem? | 02:30 |
| Kamion | the casper and ubiquity hooks for that both look correct at a quick glance, unless somebody broke gnome-panel-data itself | 02:31 |
| mjg59 | At least, I just ended up with "best shapes" rather than "sub-pixel" | 02:31 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: 01:27 < mjg59> Kamion: Oh - dhcp on all interfaces. upstart seems to block on trying to configure the network before starting X | 02:31 |
| mjg59 | Oh, wah. | 02:31 |
| mjg59 | No DRI by default. | 02:31 |
| mjg59 | Oh, oops | 02:31 |
| mjg59 | The crack switch is in the "crack" position, not the "work" position | 02:31 |
| LaserJock | angasule_: I do most of my Ubuntu development on a 1.3GHz P4 with 256MB ram so I can understand a bit of that, although it runs Gnome, KDE, and OO.o quite well | 02:31 |
| jdong | mjg59: the crack switch? | 02:32 |
| jdong | is that the sony nvidia/Intel switch? | 02:32 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 02:32 |
| angasule_ | LaserJock: well, 256MB is mid-high, 128MB and less is common | 02:32 |
| zul | LarstiQ, ouch.. | 02:32 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Also, ctrl+alt+del doesn't seem to be doing anything for me | 02:32 |
| jdong | mjg59: wow.... I've gotta start calling it that :) | 02:32 |
| zul | doh.. | 02:32 |
| zul | LaserJock, ouch even | 02:32 |
| Kamion | mjg59: oh - the problem is that laptop-detect isn't in desktop | 02:33 |
| LaserJock | zul: uh, yeah. That's what I do most of my pbuilder'ing on | 02:33 |
| angasule_ | I'm currently on a 256MB as well (family PC), mine has 512MB, I can't stand this :) | 02:33 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: explain? | 02:33 |
| Kamion | hmm, no, it still ought to be installed at that point | 02:33 |
| mjg59 | Kamion: Ah | 02:33 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: no, it doesn't do anything for anyone yet :) | 02:33 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: I can't, it's mjg59's problem, I have no idea what it is | 02:33 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: --> #upstart (it's noisy in here) | 02:33 |
| Kamion | right, I'm just going to move laptop-detect into desktop - I'm really bored of trying to guess whether it's installed at various random points in the installation | 02:35 |

| Kamion | hmm, in practice it's actually in minimal now anyway, so obviously it's not that | 02:36 |
| Kamion | mjg59: ok, having tracked it down further, fontconfig is supposed to default to "Automatic" subpixel rendering as of breezy, which is meant to turn it on only for LCD screens | 02:40 |

| FliesLikeALap | yeah, I am aware of that from when I tried dist-upgrading to degy and it failed last week or the week beore | 04:17 |
| FliesLikeALap | beforeP* | 04:17 |
| dcode | it's really meant more for developers | 04:18 |
| FliesLikeALap | I tried edgy-alternate on one of my spare servers last night and it failed fantastically on boot | 04:18 |
| FliesLikeALap | alright, I'll wait until a more appropriate testing time then | 04:18 |
| dcode | dapper was build as a solid platform to be reliable for such things as server and enterprise.....edgy is just that....it's bleeding edge stuff.... | 04:18 |
| dcode | even when it's released, it may not be as stable as dapper....that's not its goal | 04:18 |
| FliesLikeALap | ah | 04:18 |
| dcode | that's why dapper was LTS (long time support) | 04:18 |
| neuralis | crimsun: still broken on an incorrect version check (2.12.0 considered < than 2.11.1 by _gtk.so) | 04:19 |
| dcode | FliesLikeALap: really though....for future questions relating to non-development...you should try #ubuntu+1 | 04:19 |
| crimsun | neuralis: afaict the newest pygtk isn't "out there" yet; should be available in a few minutes | 04:19 |
| FliesLikeALap | yes dcode I'm aware of that but was just asking in here to see whether or not it is appropriate to test this on servers yet/at all | 04:20 |
| FliesLikeALap | didn't mean to bother you, sorry | 04:20 |
| dcode | no prob | 04:20 |
| dcode | just trying to help ;-) | 04:20 |
| neuralis | crimsun: right, it's the comparison that's strange | 04:20 |
| dcode | FliesLikeALap: I'm in ubuntu+1 too...and I woulda answered there as well | 04:20 |
| FliesLikeALap | I only asked here because I raised the topic last night in there and nobody answered | 04:21 |
| dcode | no worries :D | 04:21 |

| shawn_home | Is there plans for a Ubuntu 'sid' ? | 09:05 |
| HrdwrBoB | er | 09:05 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Our current development release *is* our equivalent to "sid". | 09:05 |
| HrdwrBoB | I think you fundamentally misunderstand the ubuntu development process | 09:05 |
| infinity | shawn_home: We don't have a "testing", just an "unstable" and several aging "stable" releases. | 09:05 |
| shawn_home | infinity: those would be nice | 09:05 |
| shawn_home | there is unstable? | 09:06 |
| infinity | Err, what would be nice? I was stating fact, not making a proposal. | 09:06 |
| infinity | shawn_home: "edgy" is our current development release. | 09:06 |
| shawn_home | but once edgy is 'done', theres nothing else to inbetween | 09:07 |
| infinity | I'm not sure what you mean. Once edgy is released, we open a new development release. | 09:07 |
| infinity | Within a week, generally. | 09:07 |
| shawn_home | i ment like Debian's sid, where there is a 'release' thats never released | 09:07 |
| HrdwrBoB | why bother? | 09:08 |
| infinity | Right, but since we don't use an unstable->testing method, we don't need that. | 09:08 |
| HrdwrBoB | you can't wait 6 months? | 09:08 |
| Mithrandir | shawn_home: our model is different, so no, there's no point in doing what you're suggesting. | 09:08 |
| infinity | shawn_home: We just rolled the state of dapper at release into edgy, then kept going. | 09:08 |
| shawn_home | HrdwrBoB: well waiting 6 months is a long time as things change so much | 09:08 |
| infinity | shawn_home: We could always tag our current development release "unstable" to make that clear, but we intentionally didn't do so, to avoid Debian/Ubuntu moneclature confusion. | 09:09 |
| infinity | nomenclature, too. | 09:09 |
| shawn_home | but each time you release i have to change my apt configs and apt-get dist-upgrade | 09:09 |
| shawn_home | there is no continuous line of packages fed down | 09:09 |
| infinity | Is that a big deal? | 09:09 |
| infinity | It takes 20 seconds. | 09:09 |
| shawn_home | it can introduce breakage :) | 09:10 |
| Burgundavia | so can sid | 09:10 |
| ajmitch | which is why update-manager can do it for you | 09:10 |
| shawn_home | but sid is on a individual package based level (aptitude hold foo if foo beaks) | 09:10 |
| infinity | shawn_home: If you follow our DEVELOPMENT releases (which seems to be what you want), you'd get no more breakage than running sid. | 09:10 |
| infinity | shawn_home: If you're following stable releases (so, only upgrading when we release), then you get to read release notes, and update-manager will try to do a smooth upgrade. | 09:11 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: although I need to make certain that update-manager get updated to allow -d earlier (mvo waited for about a month to turn that feature on in edgy) | 09:11 |
| infinity | shawn_home: I don't think you're understanding what I'm saying. If you want something sid-like, you should have been running dapper up until June 1, then you should have switched to edgy. | 09:11 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Then you get the same "new packages, as we ship them" thing. | 09:12 |
| === marilize [n=marilize@196.36.161.235] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | shawn_home: And the same breakage to go with it. :) | 09:12 |
| shawn_home | which is fine :) | 09:12 |
| shawn_home | its the wait between when dapper is 'finished' to when edgy gets started | 09:12 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Right, so now that we're clear on that, there's no problem. You want edgy, apparently. | 09:12 |
| mvo | Burgundavia: *cough* that is correct, it probably should be turned on a lot quicker | 09:12 |
| infinity | shawn_home: There was only a 1-week delay between the two, really. | 09:12 |
| shawn_home | oh? | 09:12 |
| ajmitch | mvo: takes awhile for things to be installable though :) | 09:13 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Give or take. We opened edgy pretty quickly. | 09:13 |
| shawn_home | I was using dapper while it was in alpha | 09:13 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| shawn_home | im just used to the 'unstable is never released as a distribution' mentality | 09:14 |
| shawn_home | what you have is a running cycle | 09:14 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: installable != upgradeable | 09:14 |
| infinity | shawn_home: That's a reasonably new concept in Debian, too. We used to freeze unstable to do releases in Debian, just as we do in Ubuntu. | 09:14 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: I wonder if sid has increased the time between releases, because people are constantly pushing new crap into sid | 09:15 |
| infinity | shawn_home: And, while the unstable->testing thing works well for Debian, it doesn't work well with our rapid release model, so we're not doing it. EOT. | 09:15 |
| shawn_home | infinity: parallel then? | 09:15 |
| ajmitch | Burgundavia: yes, it's a problem when many developers don't run testing & only care about sid | 09:15 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Hire us another 30 people? | 09:16 |
| Mithrandir | shawn_home: we don't have enough manpower to run stuff in parallell. | 09:16 |
| === mvo personally thinks that the a not-frozen sid does not help the releases in debian | ||
| infinity | mvo: It's certainly a point of contention, yes. | 09:16 |
| shawn_home | infinity: hire? :) people will do it if asked | 09:16 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Not the dirty work that would need to be done to develop two distributions in parallel and keep the fixes in sync between both. It's not terrible fun. It's very inefficient. And we don't freeze long enough to make it worthwhile. | 09:17 |
| shawn_home | hmm | 09:17 |
| dholbach | I think it's not problematic at all to keep a ~/upload dir in the time where a release is frozen or we're waiting for a new devel branch to open | 09:17 |
| shawn_home | 'waiting for new dev branch' | 09:18 |
| dholbach | I don't see which *real problem* the proposal is trying to fix | 09:18 |
| shawn_home | thats where I want to park myself onto when edgy is done | 09:18 |
| mvo | releasing always involves some pain. and it is not fun. if we had two parallel branches that would hurt our quality because less people would actually run (and therefore test) the distro that is about to be released | 09:18 |
| shawn_home | (let's see what GNU libc broke today! branch) | 09:18 |
| shawn_home | :) | 09:19 |
| infinity | shawn_home: Then you just change your sources.list to our newly-opened release after we ship edgy and track that. I'm really not understanding the problem. | 09:19 |
| dholbach | sudo sed -i 's/dapper/edgy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list - is that the problem? | 09:19 |
| shawn_home | infinity: but that has to be announced beforehand | 09:19 |
| shawn_home | whereas sid was just as-is you get whats dumped in | 09:19 |
| shawn_home | if it works, good, if not,wait til the next package push | 09:19 |
| infinity | So, as dholbach states, you only issue is the substitution on sources.list? | 09:20 |
| infinity | s/you/your/ | 09:20 |
| shawn_home | pretty much | 09:20 |
| Mithrandir | shawn_home: what you are describing is something like grumpy, which while it haven't been pushed off the ground yet is going to be "latest version of all the crack we can find". Like, a global build-from-cvs thing. | 09:20 |
| infinity | We're not putting "unstable" symlinks in our archive, to avoid confusion with Debian's devel model. | 09:20 |
| infinity | It was a conscious decision. | 09:20 |
| shawn_home | then call it something else than unstable? | 09:21 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: Grumpy may be more bleeding edge than what he really wants (or what anyone really wants) | 09:21 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: I'd be curious to see if anyone will actually attempt to run a grumpy system, if it's ever even bootable. | 09:21 |
| shawn_home | grumpy eh | 09:21 |
| dholbach | I think that much discussion about 52 characters is exaggerated :) | 09:21 |
| shawn_home | infinity: sure, could try grumpy in a VM :) | 09:21 |
| shawn_home | without worry whatsoever | 09:22 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: it'll be bootable once every blue moon every blue moon or something. | 09:22 |
| infinity | Mithrandir: If that. :) | 09:22 |
| shawn_home | but where is grumpy? i | 09:22 |
| ivoks | waiting to be borne | 09:22 |
| infinity | shawn_home: It doesn't exist. | 09:22 |

| Mithrandir | shawn_home: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDownUnder/BOFs/GrumpyGroundhog is the description of what grumpy could look like. | 09:22 |
| === infinity decides that this conversation was delivered stillborn, and goes to work instead. | ||
| Burgundavia | shawn_home: grumpy is a long term plan to create something that is even closer to upstream. Building straight out of upstream sources | 09:23 |
| shawn_home | Burgundavia: interesting | 09:23 |
| shawn_home | so is it possible ubuntu can develop a symlink thats different that 'unstable' ? | 09:23 |
| Burgundavia | however, I emphasize plan, as it is entirely vapourware currently | 09:23 |
| === carlos [n=carlos@203.Red-81-35-100.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| shawn_home | that way, people who want more bleeding can just stay with whatever that 'name' is and not concern the actual release | 09:24 |
| Burgundavia | you want an symlink for unstable to the latest development? as infinity explained to you, that is a decision that was made, not an accident | 09:24 |
| ajmitch | if people are brave enough to run unstable software, they can handle changing their sources.list | 09:24 |
| Burgundavia | indeed | 09:24 |
| shawn_home | ajmitch: no problem changing the list, the question is knowing what to change it to | 09:25 |
| ajmitch | the name is announced a month or two out from release, usually | 09:25 |
| ivoks | intorducing unstable would result with noone using stable, and that would result with bad product or delayed resleases | 09:25 |
| Burgundavia | if you are not following ubuntu development enough to know the next name, I question why you should be running it | 09:25 |
| shawn_home | Burgundavia: it'd be the same reason I'd run sid | 09:26 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: indeed. Sid has some serious systemic issues. If I were DPL, killing sid would be the first thing I would push for | 09:26 |
| ivoks | Burgundavia: *nod* it's just to tempting to run sid, and not sarge | 09:26 |
| ivoks | Burgundavia: i mean, how many of us are running dapper? | 09:26 |
| shawn_home | it does however make it nicer for people who want to develop on ubuntu to have a running distribution that doesn't release though | 09:27 |
| shawn_home | this is what Grumpy would do for me | 09:28 |
| shawn_home | GrumpyGroundhog == what im looking for | 09:28 |
| shawn_home | whats the likely hood it will come true? | 09:28 |
| ivoks | shawn_home: developting for "unstable" would be risky since your project could or could not end up in stable | 09:28 |
| shawn_home | well, true but if my package was in unstable i'd have to give the goahead to move it to a released branch | 09:29 |
| shawn_home | but I like what Grumpy is | 09:29 |

| Burgundavia | shawn_home: not really | 09:30 |
| Burgundavia | sid is closer to the lastest devel, which is currently edgy | 09:30 |
| Burgundavia | look, ubuntu is never going to have a sid, grumpy is a dream | 09:30 |
| Burgundavia | end of story | 09:30 |
| shawn_home | im hoping it comes true :) | 09:31 |
| ajmitch | grumpy would be far more unstable than debian experimental, most likely | 09:31 |
| Burgundavia | and developers shoudl be developing on for stable versions of ubuntu | 09:31 |
| Burgundavia | ajmitch: I think the plan is that nobody would run an entire distro of grumpy | 09:31 |
| Burgundavia | merely one package or so | 09:31 |
| shawn_home | Burgundavia: that depends on what someone is developing | 09:31 |
| shawn_home | I may require say GNU libc 2.5 thats in grumpy since it has new userland C APIs to hook into the kernel 2.6.40 or whatever | 09:32 |
| Burgundavia | right, anyway, this discussion is going nowhere. neither ajmitch nor myself work for canonical | 09:32 |
| Burgundavia | infinity and Mithrandir, who do work for canonical have very clearly laid out the why and what | 09:32 |
| Burgundavia | not to be rude, but I think we are talking around in circles here | 09:33 |
| Mithrandir | shawn_home: in which case you'd pull in that version of libc. You wouldn't want the latest snapshot of say, your window manager, X, all of gnome, the kernel, etc. So it's closer to Debian's experimental than Debian's unstable. | 09:34 |
| shawn_home | i guess so, yes :) | 09:34 |

| heno | we could probably charge 3 for those actually :) | 12:05 |
| heno | yep, no problem | 12:05 |
| Kamion | and while I did find a mod file from upstream that I could play in the same way as I played the ones you sent me, I can't find any code anywhere that actually plays that file from upstream | 12:06 |

| Kamion | having now played them, 6th.mod seems like the best choice for a startup sound | 12:08 |

| infinity | Chipzz: I've been fighting against it being replaced until smart can give us a smooth upgrade (and retreat) path. | 02:21 |
| infinity | Chipzz: Which, for most things, isn't a big deal, since it's the dpkg database that matters. But for some things (like the auto-dependency removal DB), you need ot be able to sync. | 02:22 |
| Chipzz | sometimes I wonder what it is with opensource people throwing away stuff instead of fixing it | 02:22 |
| giftnudel | Chipzz: it's sometimes easier to write sth. from scratch then to try to fix something | 02:23 |
| infinity | Chipzz: You've not seen the apt codebase. | 02:23 |
| Chipzz | infinity: wasn't the auto-dependency removal introduced into apt recently? | 02:23 |
| infinity | Chipzz: Yeah, it was a recent addition. Yanked from aptitude and massaged into apt. I assume mvo intends to make it play nicely with smart too. | 02:23 |
| infinity | Chipzz: At any rate, it takes a special kind of insanity to wrap one's head around apt's code. I suspect it's been responsible for driving both mdz and mvo completely mad, and perhaps even jgg, who originally wrote it. | 02:24 |

| Chipzz | but fwiw, imho dpkg needs improvement a lot harder than apt does | 02:26 |
| infinity | mvo: So, since you appear to be following this, are you planning to make the auto-dep-removal magic seamlessly work between apt and smart, for easy swapping of tools without functionality loss? | 02:26 |
| infinity | mvo: Cause that would be some kinda spiffy. | 02:27 |
| mvo | infinity: hopefully, but smart does not have the magic yet (also there is a experimental patch) | 02:27 |
| pitti | mvo: does aptitude and apt use the same auto-removal db now? | 02:28 |
| pitti | s/does/do/ | 02:28 |
| infinity | mvo: But once it grows the magic, you can make it sync with apt (or just use the same DB, ideally), so there's no data loss in switching? | 02:28 |

| Kamion | Chipzz: generally, my view is that dpkg needs enhancements, while apt needs fixes | 02:30 |

| Tonio_ | Kamion: okay I'll wait then, thanks ! | 03:48 |
| seb128 | Kamion: I've looked at the bugs and patches but didn't have time to play with those yet. upstream has some valid concerns about them and delayed that for next cycle so I'm not sure yet, I'll try when GNOME 2.16.0 is packaged (which should be done today or tomorrow morning) | 03:48 |
| seb128 | Kamion: edgy has not so many sudo running app, g-s-t, update-manager, gnome-app-install UI run as user now | 03:49 |
| Kamion | seb128: ubiquity is a big one, and it can't change | 03:49 |
| seb128 | ah, right, good point | 03:49 |
| Kamion | at least not without some major reengineering | 03:50 |
| seb128 | k, it's next on my list after GNOME 2.16.0 (and some mails replying), I'll let you know when I've tried them | 03:50 |

| iwj | mvo_: Ah, hello. | 03:55 |

| jdong | hey, does acpi-support's suspend scripts umount anything? | 03:55 |
| mvo_ | hello iwj, Kamion. sorry, I missed the context. whats up? | 03:55 |
| iwj | mvo_: Breaks might or might not be. | 03:56 |
| iwj | Did you see my mail about update-manager ? | 03:56 |
| Kamion | tepsipakki: while personally I'm with you and iwj, the reason given originally was that if you're trying to middle-click on a URL to open it in a new window/tab and you miss, whatever random stuff happens to be in your X selection gets loaded by firefox | 03:56 |
| tepsipakki | kamion: yes, I've seen that ;) | 03:57 |
| mvo_ | iwj: yes, I have seen it. your LD_LIBRARY_PATH idea is a bit scary, but I guess it would work | 03:58 |
| iwj | mvo_: Well, it just seemed an easy way to make it work and it's what LD_LIBRARY_PATH is for, in some sense. | 03:59 |
| iwj | The alternative would be some weirdo rebuild but I didn't really want to suggest that. | 03:59 |
| mvo_ | iwj: if we really really want to have breaks working for the dapper->edgy upgrade, then this is the way to do it | 03:59 |
| mvo_ | iwj: the alternative would be to use them onyl for edgy->edgy+1 | 04:00 |
| lloydinho | pitti, sorry I was in the middle of an interview.. :-) | 04:00 |
| tepsipakki | iwj, Kamion: maybe I can paste your responses to the bug, and rename it so it could be left as a placeholder? | 04:00 |
| infinity | Kamion: Would have been nicer if he did that before he forced the upgrade on me. :) | 04:01 |
| lloydinho | pitti, so I won't be in Dresden before tomorrow, I hope that's okay. Sorry for the late reply.. | 04:01 |
| infinity | dholbach: My sticky notes are back. I love you! ;) | 04:01 |
| Kamion | tepsipakki: sure | 04:01 |
| iwj | mvo_: Right. So really I think it has to be your decision since you have to decide whether you want to do that somewhat mad thing in u-m. | 04:02 |
| slomo | infinity: hrm, same problem for pygtk now at least on amd64 :( | 04:02 |

| Kamion | It doesn't seem too bad at this point to say that we'll only allow Breaks in packages as of edgy+1. The downside of course is that we need to make sure somehow that we've caught all the problems or we won't get it until edgy+2, etc. | 04:02 |

| mjg59 | Seveas: Ok - can you repull from mainline? | 06:12 |
| Seveas | will do | 06:12 |
| mjg59 | I'm just pushing my changes | 06:12 |
| neuralis | Kamion: lvm2_2.02.06-2ubuntu2_amd64.deb and matching udeb are there. i wonder if it just failed to load properly; i'll retry. | 06:13 |
| iwj | Seveas: I don't need easy to use, I need it to work and really what I need is for apt to explain why it is `Ign'oring me. | 06:14 |
| Seveas | iwj, ign is usually for missing .pgp keys | 06:15 |
| Seveas | or Release.gpg files | 06:15 |
| === kagou [n=kagou@84.6.194.206] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Seveas | (falcon also works by the way, I know several people who use it and are happy with it -- if you want something in Ubuntu proper, I'd suggest reprepro) | 06:15 |
| iwj | Seveas: Thanks for the tip about .gpg; I had a .sig instead. | 06:17 |
| neuralis | Kamion: lvm configurator loads and runs, but is still broken; doesn't allow re-entry into lvm group config, and doesn't add the chosen lvm vg(s) to the main partitioning screen | 06:18 |
| Kamion | neuralis: ok, partman-lvm bugs would be good; we may just need to sync from upstream | 06:19 |
| neuralis | Kamion: ok, filing. | 06:19 |
| ivoks | neuralis: this happens on all linux systems | 06:19 |
| === Huahua [n=hua_@122.0.230.251] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| neuralis | ivoks: uh, no. if lvm doesn't add the vgs to the main partman screen, it's unusable. | 06:20 |
| mjg59 | Seveas: So do we get a test 256-colour theme soon? | 06:20 |
| === givre [n=flo@APuteaux-152-1-89-43.w86-205.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ivoks | neuralis: i agree, but same thing happens on fedora, too :/ | 06:20 |
| neuralis | ivoks: then their lvm is broken, as well. this works fine in dapper. | 06:21 |
| === nags [n=nags@125.22.2.213] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ivoks | neuralis: if you don't initialize lvm and remove all vg before creating new one, installer segfaults :/ | 06:21 |
| iwj | 7967 write(2, "Signature made Tue Sep 5 03:33:"..., 70) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor) | 06:21 |
| Seveas | mjg59, that's part of the things I plan for tomorrow | 06:21 |
| mjg59 | Seveas: Rock | 06:21 |
| Seveas | 256 colors, png progressbar | 06:21 |
| Kamion | ivoks: I don't think it's possible for a partman bug to "happen on all Linux systems" | 06:22 |
| Kamion | seeing as it's inherently specific to Debian and derived distributions | 06:22 |
| ivoks | Kamion: i don't think it's a partman bug | 06:22 |
| Kamion | ivoks: I don't understand how you've got enough information from what neuralis said to conclude that | 06:23 |
| mjg59 | If Edgy is a colour, what colour is edgy? | 06:23 |
| ivoks | Kamion: it's not from what neuralis said, it's from exp. of lots of lvm installations :/ | 06:23 |
| FunnyLookinHat | maroon... with orange blaze. | 06:23 |
| Kamion | ivoks: please don't conflate all possible LVM bugs into one | 06:24 |
| ivoks | Kamion: :) ok | 06:24 |
| Kamion | I'm quite sure there's room for multiple issues in there | 06:24 |
| neuralis | Kamion: his theory is easy enough to test, i'll let you know in a minute. | 06:24 |
| Kamion | neuralis: thanks | 06:24 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: did we figure out any way to port console-keymaps-tree to console-setup? | 06:25 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: just have console-setup build-depend on treetool (or whatever the tool making the decision trees is called), then generate the c-k-t as part of the c-s build? | 06:31 |
| Kamion | (keymapper) | 06:31 |
| Mithrandir | thanks, I always forget that name. :-) | 06:31 |
| Kamion | "just" - hmm | 06:31 |

| Seveas | it's often filed under the dist upgrader | 06:57 |
| ogra | did it ever reveal something for you ? | 06:57 |
| Seveas | since it usually happens when people dist-upgrade from dapper | 06:57 |
| Seveas | it's a pycentral bug though and most bugs are marked as duplicate of one filed on pycentral | 06:58 |
| mjg59 | \o/ | 06:58 |
| mjg59 | Another piece of forum fanservice | 06:58 |

| welshbyte | the first thing i remember from trying emacs all those years ago is thinking "what's a buffer?" | 10:46 |
| zyga | oh boy I started a flame war, let's go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:46 |
| seb128 | I don't intend spending time on that discussion, so no need for that :p | 10:47 |
| pitti | please not the 234829423th emacs vs. vim flamewar | 10:47 |
| pitti | the kool boys use ed :-P | 10:47 |
| hikenboot | any ideas? "xbase-clients" has a lot of dependencies but i am removing none of them so i am not sure why this package is being removed any ideas? | 10:47 |
| _ion | Bah, i modify the files with a magnet. | 10:47 |

| cbx33 | seb128, remember that gconf line I wanted added? | 11:25 |
| seb128 | yeah | 11:25 |
| seb128 | did you open a bug? | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | does it need to be done before FF | 11:25 |
| seb128 | no | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | ok that's cool | 11:25 |
| Lure | seb128: I have seen g-p-m/g-s-m uses gconf entries to know if suspend/hibernate is provided by system - but whic program populates these gconf entries? | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | I'll get that done as soon as I can | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | I also had another quick questions for you | 11:25 |
| seb128 | Lure: gnome-power-manager | 11:25 |
| cbx33 | oh btw, don't worry I repackaged pessulus from your sync :D | 11:26 |
| seb128 | cbx33: why repackaged? what is wrong with my sync? | 11:26 |
| cbx33 | nothing | 11:26 |
| cbx33 | I had to add a patch for the Student Control Panel Integration | 11:26 |
| cbx33 | did you want to review it? | 11:26 |
| Lure | seb128: thanks - will check if it just trusts HAL or something else (we have complaints in KDE that HAL report hibernate as supported on some desktops) | 11:27 |
| seb128 | Lure: why would hibernate be supported on a desktop? | 11:27 |
| seb128 | wouldn't | 11:27 |
| Lure | seb128: it could be, but there are many report that it does not work | 11:28 |
| === jdong_ [n=jdong@d192-24-235-141.try.wideopenwest.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Fujitsu | But it works fine on quite a number, Lure. | 11:28 |
| cbx33 | seb128, I can send you my diff.tar.gz if you want it? | 11:28 |
| Lure | seb128: from g-p-m source, I can only see that it needs both positive from hal as well as from gconf setting, but g-p-m does not look like to set gconf entry on its own | 11:29 |
| seb128 | cbx33: not today but maybe tomorrow yeah | 11:29 |
| cbx33 | seb128, what email address? | 11:29 |
| Lure | Fujitsu: that is what bothers me - should we trust HAL or should we have any workaround | 11:29 |
| seb128 | cbx33: seb128@ubuntu.com | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | ok cool | 11:30 |
| Fujitsu | No, you should trust HAL. | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | vuntz has been with me all the way through | 11:30 |
| seb128 | Lure: /usr/share/gconf/schemas/gnome-power-manager.schemas | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | he's approved all my alterations | 11:30 |
| seb128 | good | 11:30 |
| Fujitsu | HAL should be corrected, not the application, because a number of things work off HAL. | 11:30 |
| === SNOOP [n=ed@Wbcc4.w.pppool.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Fujitsu | (although I'm not sure correction is necessary) | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | seb128, seeing as you're kinda involved in this now too | 11:30 |
| seb128 | cbx33: you can discuss that on #ubuntu-desktop with vuntz BTW, so we can participate ;) | 11:30 |
| cbx33 | for SCP I need to run a python listening script for dbus, everytime someone logs on | 11:31 |
| cbx33 | where do I place the link so it's gets run for every session login? | 11:31 |
| seb128 | cbx33: add a .desktop to /etc/xdg/autostart/ by example | 11:32 |
| _ion | If it's a X login, perhaps /etc/xdg/autostart? | 11:32 |
| cbx33 | thakns seb128 | 11:32 |
| seb128 | cbx33: look to update-notifier by example for an example | 11:32 |
| seb128 | np | 11:32 |
| cbx33 | thanks seb128 | 11:32 |
| Lure | seb128: thanks - so it is on by default, therefore HAL prevails | 11:32 |
| seb128 | Lure: which makes sense | 11:33 |
| seb128 | Lure: the default is to trust HAL | 11:33 |
| Lure | seb128: yep, otherwise we should fix HAL | 11:33 |
| cbx33 | seb128, what does the terminal field invoke? | 11:33 |
| === _ion was happy to notice that smart-notifier installs a /e/x/autostart file in edgy, btw. | ||
| seb128 | not "otherwise", if HAL is wrong it should be fixed | 11:33 |
| seb128 | cbx33: if you want to start a gnome-terminal | 11:34 |
| cbx33 | nice _ion | 11:34 |
| cbx33 | i see | 11:34 |
| seb128 | cbx33: like if you start mutt better to do it in a terminal | 11:34 |
| cbx33 | ah right i see | 11:34 |

| cbx33 | seb128, does this .desktop apply even if the script that is started is a non-GUI script | 11:36 |
| cbx33 | ie just a terminal process | 11:36 |
| cbx33 | requires no intereaction from user | 11:36 |
| Kamion | hikenboot: ubuntu-live's dependencies are "everything we want to shove into the live CD to fill up the remaining space" | 11:38 |
| Kamion | hikenboot: don't take them as statements of policy | 11:38 |
| zyg1 | Kamion: would it not be cool to say that ubuntu-live depends on ubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-live-stuff, ubuntu-live-language-packs, ubuntu-another-group-of-packages so that we don't throw everything into one bag? | 11:40 |
| Kamion | zyg1: seems mostly pointless to me | 11:40 |
| Kamion | I'd rather get rid of ubuntu-live and just handle it with Task fields, TBH | 11:40 |
| zyg1 | Kamion: task fields? | 11:40 |

| seb128 | Keybuk: my system doesn't boot normally, maybe you have an idea on it | 11:57 |
| seb128 | I get the "Booting the operating system now" | 11:57 |
| seb128 | then "No cryptroot configured, skipping" | 11:57 |
| seb128 | and then a text login prompt | 11:57 |
| Keybuk | right ... | 11:57 |
| seb128 | is the boot suposed to be verbose with upstart? | 11:57 |
| Keybuk | what interesting things do you have on your syste,? | 11:57 |
| seb128 | I just installed upstart now | 11:57 |
| Keybuk | no, it's not verbose by default (though I might suggest we change that) | 11:57 |
| seb128 | knowing I have ubuntu-minimal not installed :p | 11:58 |
| Keybuk | why don't you have ubuntu-minimal installed? | 11:58 |
| seb128 | I had to install the sysv-compat package by hand but it doesn't fix the boot | 11:58 |
| Keybuk | do you have initscripts installed? | 11:58 |
| seb128 | because it probably got removed at some point and I didn't bother reinstalling it | 11:58 |
