mdkeLaserJock: the pot naming stuff should already have been working fine as there had been uploads with pot files before I left... but sounds like everything is under control, nice work :)09:08
LaserJockmdke: well, carlos said the pot naming on Rossetta was from dappers uploads09:09
LaserJockI don't know09:10
LaserJockI'm terrible with this stuff09:10
LaserJockbut we sort of managed09:10
LaserJockwe also managed to somewhat diffuse the russian bomb ;-)09:10

mdkehi hairytoes 10:01
hairytoesI wonder if someone can tell me if I've found an error in the documentation or if I'm just dumb...10:02
hairytoesI was looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo and something there doesn't make sense to me.10:02
mdkego ahead10:03
hairytoesHere's the section... I'm not clear what it's meant to say. Quote: You should always use gksudo or kdesu to run such programs, otherwise new login attempts may fail. If this happens and at login an error message reports: "Unable to read ICE authority file", log in using the failsafe terminal and execute the command below substituting user for your username.     rm /home/*/.{ICE,X}authority 10:04
hairytoesI don't see 'user' anywhere in there. Am I missing something?10:04
LaserJockmdke: I'm still wondering ;-)10:04
LaserJockmdke: I'm going to finish my PhD for sure and I'd like to stay with chemistry, but I've been thinking a bit about scientific software development10:05
mdkehairytoes: quite right. it should read "rm /home/user/.{ICE,X}authority10:05
mdkeI suppose10:05
nixternalLaserJock: im going to be taking some scientific software courses here in teh next year...kind of excited truthfully about that10:05
LaserJockcool10:06
mdkehairytoes: you can correct it is you like10:06
mdkeis -> if10:06
hairytoesok.. will do. You may laugh if I screw it up - I don't do wikis :)10:07
mdkeyou do now :)10:08
hairytoesok, done.10:08
LaserJocknixternal: I've often thought about creating an opensource scientific software development community/platform "sciforge"10:08
hairytoesI've been looking for an excuse to do some work on the docs. Looks like I just found one.10:09
