| nixternal | hey everyone, a goal for the doc team for feisty is to fix documentation so it can eventually become topic based | 12:26 |
|---|---|---|
| nixternal | so, what i did as a possibility is create a frontpage for khelpcenter. it isn't final and probably won't be for a while, but an idea is here -> http://nixternal.ubuntu-rocks.org/stuff/doc/ktbh | 12:27 |
| nixternal | would that be possible to use that as a front page instead of the current khelpcenter home page? | 12:27 |

| apokryphos | nixternal: that looks really nice =) | 12:35 |
| apokryphos | very small issue, but for the wiki I think it'd be good to link to wiki.kubuntu.org instead | 12:36 |
| robotgeek | though they are the same wikis, i prefer the kubuntu stylesheet | 12:37 |
| apokryphos | for IRC, perhaps it's better to just have the link to automatically fire up Konversation (which automatically makes you join #kubuntu) instead of instructions? | 12:37 |
| apokryphos | right | 12:37 |
| robotgeek | that would be nice | 12:38 |
| apokryphos | irc link being irc://irc.freenode.org/kubuntu | 12:38 |
| robotgeek | does it already work that way? | 12:38 |
| apokryphos | yup | 12:38 |
| apokryphos | hm, or at least it should | 12:39 |
| apokryphos | it might have Kopete as default though | 12:39 |
| robotgeek | i just like konversation over kopete for irc | 12:40 |
| apokryphos | of course | 12:40 |
| apokryphos | Kopete isn't a great IRC client | 12:40 |
| apokryphos | (the default can be changed though, of course) | 12:40 |
| nixternal | apokryphos: i like that idea about firing up konversation to connect | 12:51 |
| nixternal | i will look into that definitely | 12:51 |

| robotgeek | hmm, i wonder how difficult it would be to generate python bindings for katapult | 04:55 |
| apokryphos | forget katapult, w00t kickoff | 04:56 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: hmm, link please ? | 04:57 |
| apokryphos | ubotu: kickoff | 04:57 |
| ubotu | kickoff is a new KDE menu developed by SUSE. It organises items differently, has an integrated Beagle search, and been put through extensive usability testing in the Novell usability lab. See http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2283 | 04:57 |
| apokryphos | !kickoff is =~ /SUSE/openSUSE/ | 04:58 |
| ubotu | I know nothing about kickoff is yet | 04:58 |
| apokryphos | !kickoff is =~ s/SUSE/openSUSE/ | 04:58 |
| ubotu | I know nothing about kickoff is yet | 04:58 |
| apokryphos | how do I always forget the syntax for that? ;-) | 04:58 |
| === Hobbsee never knew it | ||
| apokryphos | !no kickoff is =~ s/SUSE/openSUSE/ | 04:59 |
| ubotu | I know nothing about no kickoff is yet | 04:59 |
| robotgeek | hmm, but they are not the same, are they? | 04:59 |
| apokryphos | ah, evil ~= the wrong way around | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | apokryphos: bah, katapult is better! | 05:00 |
| apokryphos | no way :D | 05:00 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: i hate the rodent | 05:00 |
| apokryphos | kickoff can do most of the things katapult can do, atm | 05:00 |
| apokryphos | except amarok playback | 05:00 |
| apokryphos | *amarok controller | 05:01 |
| Hobbsee | that's still more keys to use to search | 05:01 |
| Hobbsee | i think | 05:01 |
| apokryphos | what do you mean? | 05:01 |
| robotgeek | you mean, to launch a program, i have to click K-Menu -> and type with keyboard. that's 2 actions | 05:02 |
| apokryphos | k-menu has a shortcut | 05:03 |
| apokryphos | and on mine it's a f1. Figured I never use the F1 for help system :P | 05:03 |
| robotgeek | anyways, it definetly beats K-Menu :) | 05:03 |
| apokryphos | not sure what the default is. Win+P? | 05:03 |
| apokryphos | for sure :) | 05:03 |
| Hobbsee | apokryphos: i dont think there is a default | 05:04 |
| apokryphos | the very nice things about it: inline search results (I rarely have to wade through with long locations in my konqueror), more beautiful application launcher, can do things like calculator, etc | 05:04 |
| Hobbsee | nice | 05:05 |
| apokryphos | Hobbsee: there is, it's alt+f1 | 05:05 |
| Hobbsee | ah right | 05:05 |
| Hobbsee | so it does.... | 05:05 |
| === Hobbsee considers just disabling f1 | ||
| apokryphos | it's really handy. I don't have to use alt+f2 anymore 8) | 05:05 |
| apokryphos | the link above has a presentation of how well it works | 05:06 |
| apokryphos | tm_t was packaging it for kubuntu but I don't know how far that got | 05:06 |
| apokryphos | I admit it doesn't look as nice as Novell's gnome one, but it's definitely a *lot* more practical | 05:08 |
| apokryphos | I know because I tried using theirs for a couple of days :P | 05:08 |
| Hobbsee | looks nice, actually | 05:08 |
| === Hobbsee hopes that you can just type / to search, as you can in the current openSUSE | ||
| robotgeek | it's pretty neat, but i dont forsee using it much. i only use a couple of apps. kmail, amarok and a browser | 05:09 |
| apokryphos | it might end up being kde 4's menu | 05:09 |
| apokryphos | hopefully with more touchups by then though 8) | 05:09 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 05:09 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 05:09 |
| apokryphos | robotgeek: but you launch applications/documents, surely | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | in which case it's useful | 05:10 |
| Hobbsee | it's got some things that i'd like to see changed on there - but it does look nice | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | it also indexes your kopete/gaim logs, which is nice | 05:10 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: yeah, but they are usually on desktop. or ~/Docs | 05:10 |
| apokryphos | Hobbsee: no / this time, nope | 05:11 |
| apokryphos | you just type :P | 05:11 |
| Hobbsee | oh right. even better | 05:11 |
| apokryphos | robotgeek: you'll always end up needing an application launcher though. I thought I used very few apps, but the amount of times I use alt+f2/kickoff is quite a few, I'd say. | 05:11 |
| apokryphos | the usability of the app is quite good, since they got to use the novell lab for a bit I believe | 05:12 |
| apokryphos | still, there were a few oddities with shortcuts originally, which I reported and are fixed now :P | 05:12 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: i was kind of hoping for something like quicksilver, really. the one app on os x that is not there on linux, though katapult has the basics right | 05:12 |
| apokryphos | what's the difference between quicksilver and spotlight? | 05:12 |
| apokryphos | I've only seen the latter, but I liked it a lot. Didn't see kickoff missing any of that stuff though | 05:13 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: with quicksilver, i can have actions. like select file -> use ftp client -> send to this bookmark | 05:14 |
| apokryphos | hm, not sure how that would be implemented but sounds good | 05:14 |
| robotgeek | apokryphos: http://docs.blacktree.com/quicksilver/overview?DokuWiki=0edcee49ff6ab2ecd22beb4007c73930 | 05:14 |
| apokryphos | mm, that's nice | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | you can do other actions with these of course but they involve right-clicking | 05:17 |
| apokryphos | (in kickoff) | 05:17 |
| robotgeek | with quicksilver, you use right arrow :) | 05:17 |
| robotgeek | iirc, it was quite a while ago | 05:18 |
| apokryphos | I see no reason why right-arrow shouldn't be used for something like that, actually | 05:18 |
| apokryphos | but really it'd just open up the right-click menu. There'd have to be a better implementation for that than a default menu | 05:19 |

| fdoving | Riddell: have you considered dropping the poppler patches to kpdf? | 12:09 |
| fdoving | they introduce new bugs. | 12:10 |
| fdoving | http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138010 and http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137121 as examples. | 12:11 |
| Ubugtu | KDE bug 138010 in general "Cannot print a PDF that prints fine in Acrobat and Foxit" [Normal,Resolved: invalid] | 12:11 |
| fdoving | also.. our kdegraphics.orig.tar.gz does not have the same md5sum the debian one got.. without any changes either.. seems it's just repacked without any reason. | 12:12 |
| fdoving | (or our got published first, and debian made their own).. | 12:12 |
| fdoving | .. and this SRU process is very very very timecomsuming.. kopete remains in the -proposed queue.. | 12:15 |
| Riddell | fdoving: I know it creates some bugs but it's far less hassle than the problem of maintaining multiple copies of xpdf | 12:16 |
| Riddell | fdoving: many .orig files are different if they're made before the debian one the timestamps will be different | 12:17 |
| fdoving | OK, I have to open every PDF in some sane PDF reader before printing.. i think it's a bit of a hassle. | 12:17 |
| Riddell | fdoving: have people tested the new kopete? | 12:17 |
| fdoving | it's not accepted into -proposed yet.. but yes.. people have downloaded it from ubuntu.lnix.net. | 12:18 |
| fdoving | it was approved for upload to -proposed, but hte archive admins are too busy to actually accept it into the archive for people to test it. | 12:19 |
| Riddell | grumph | 12:20 |
| fdoving | I've poked colin and matt so much about this i don't want to poke anymore. | 12:21 |
| freeflying_ | Riddell: after remove the gcc patch for qt, now I can use input methd | 12:29 |
| Riddell | freeflying_: woo | 12:32 |
| Riddell | mmm | 12:32 |
| Riddell | ok, so next thing is to try compiling all of scim stuff with visibility | 12:32 |
| Riddell | but if that doesn't solve it, we'll just remove it from qt for feisty | 12:32 |
| freeflying_ | Riddell: even rebuild scim, can not work | 12:33 |
| freeflying_ | with that patch, xim can't work too | 12:33 |

| Hobbsee | Riddell: fdoving didnt do all the steps of the SRU dance, so it all blew up on him, adn nothing got done. the SRU thing is a bloody mess of beaucracy. | 12:50 |
| freeflying_ | Riddell: will we upgrade to koffice-1.6.1 recently? | 12:51 |
| Hobbsee | freeflying_: it's sitting in the feisty queue, waiting for the end of hurd 1 freeze | 12:51 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: i did do all the steps so far, i'm just waiting for the archive admins, to be able to proceed. | 12:52 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: true. they got the debdiff they wanted, finally, i think? | 12:53 |
| === Hobbsee hates the thought of that being unpatched for a month | ||
| fdoving | Hobbsee: they've had everything they wanted for weeks. | 12:54 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: but not in the way they wanted it? likely true | 12:54 |
| === Hobbsee isnt blaming you, btw | ||
| fdoving | Hobbsee: in the way they wanted it too. I've changed the version number in the latest upload, and i asked one of the archive admins if they wanted me to add a new debdiff with the new version number, but that wasn't neccessary. Now sfflaw wanted a new debdiff with the exact version number, and I added it. | 12:56 |
| === Hobbsee ndos | ||
| fdoving | I fixed the kopete packages like a week before the UDS, and it's still not in. | 12:57 |
| fdoving | the good thing is that it's fixed in feisty :) | 12:58 |
| Hobbsee | from what they said in the meeting, the archive admins are snowed under with SRU's | 12:58 |
| Hobbsee | so by the time it's *actually* in the archive for edgy, everyone will have upgraded to feisty - problem solved! | 12:58 |

| fdoving | hmm.. i wounder if there is some kind of cron-job to clean up /var/cache/apt/archives... that would be smart. not everyone is aware of that cache.. | 01:57 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: a bit of a problem if you're using that cache for your pbuilder too, or if you want to go back a version, as you cant get it off launchpad again, unless you compile it | 01:58 |
| marseillai | fdoving: i've had this since time and i often help people with this error : "Xsession: warning: unable to write to /tmp; Xsession may exit with an error" because of this problem X can not be launch | 01:59 |
| marseillai | but i wonder it adept could not manage with this | 01:59 |
| Hobbsee | marseillai: chmod 777 /tmp/ | 01:59 |
| Hobbsee | i would expect | 01:59 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: people using pbuilder are experienced enought to disable such a feature.. i'd say. | 01:59 |
| marseillai | Hobbsee: no : sudo apt-get clean or sudo apt-get auto-clean | 01:59 |
| Hobbsee | marseillai: where does /tmp fit into this? | 02:00 |
| Hobbsee | oh right, if you';ve got too much in the /v/c/a/a | 02:00 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: full disk/partition? | 02:00 |
| marseillai | Hobbsee: no where but /tmp is on / partition and /var/cache/apt/archives became too big and there's no more space on / and you got this error when trying to launch X. | 02:01 |
| marseillai | fdoving: yes | 02:01 |
| Hobbsee | yep, got you | 02:01 |
| === marseillai got a cron.weekly with apt-get auto-clean | ||
| Hobbsee | then you really need a notification about the disk becoming full | 02:02 |
| Hobbsee | with an option about cleaning out the aptcache | 02:02 |
| === fdoving thinks regular desktop users would like a apt-get clean in cron | ||
| marseillai | Hobbsee: or an option activate by default in adept wich make an auto-clean after each dist-upgrade done with adept-upgrader | 02:02 |
| fdoving | it's not like it's a usefull feature to have the .debs stored for john desktop user. | 02:02 |
| marseillai | fdoving: apt-get auto-clean is better it keeps some file. if you loose your connection it can be usefull | 02:03 |
| fdoving | he doesn't purge and reinstall the same pacakges all over the place. | 02:03 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: unless one breaks | 02:03 |
| fdoving | i'm not saying 'delete all *.deb after every apt-get install/adept install' | 02:04 |
| fdoving | I'd like something in either cron.daily or cron.weekly. | 02:04 |
| marseillai | fdoving: if you make auto-clean instead of clean you remove only too old archives | 02:04 |
| fdoving | marseillai: which doesn't do the job. you can still have ~1G of fresh and new .debs in your cache. | 02:05 |
| fdoving | it helps, but it's not good enought. | 02:05 |
| marseillai | yes but it's better than the currently way to do : do nothing | 02:05 |
| Hobbsee | i wouldnt put a cron daily on there... | 02:06 |
| Hobbsee | weekly would be as much as could be handled | 02:06 |
| fdoving | weekly is fine. | 02:06 |
| fdoving | But I don't see the pros of having a cache for desktop users. | 02:07 |
| marseillai | Hobbsee: i think it should be something with a graphic frontend in adept or system-settings | 02:07 |
| fdoving | keeping it for a week is still useless imo. | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: for when the touchpad is buggered up, and it didnt seem to do that before the update. it happens. | 02:07 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: or we have another large lot of X breakage or something, although that shouldnt happen with SRU's | 02:08 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: doesn't matter, if you clean the cache once a week the old package will be gone anyway. you'll only have the new broken one in your cache.. for a week. | 02:08 |
| Hobbsee | true | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | but hopefully you find it out it's a problem in less than a week :P | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | i do get your point | 02:09 |
| Hobbsee | fortunately, most people dont run that much out of space | 02:09 |
| fdoving | they will.. if they don't learn to clean the cache. | 02:10 |
| fdoving | :) | 02:10 |
| === Hobbsee would have a "you are running out of space dialog, which would have a button saying "clear my apt-cache" | ||
| Hobbsee | hwo big are hard drives these days? | 02:10 |
| fdoving | it's just a question of time.. all harddisks will run out of space when the cache never is cleaned.. | 02:10 |

| fdoving | A 'Free space wizard' would be nice.. yes. | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | anyone feel like writing one? | 02:11 |
| fdoving | you would have to figure out what partition contains the cache, though.. | 02:11 |
| Hobbsee | that's not hard, i believe | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | if /var/cache/apt/archives exist, then clean it | 02:13 |
| Hobbsee | well, just rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives* | 02:13 |
| fdoving | sure, but /var is not always on / | 02:13 |
| fdoving | you can't do that.. as /var/cache/apt/archives/partial must exist. | 02:13 |
| fdoving | rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb | 02:14 |
| Hobbsee | take out the -r then | 02:14 |
| Hobbsee | as in /var isnt on the same physical partition as /? | 02:14 |
| Hobbsee | it doesnt matter - it still gets mounted as /var | 02:14 |
| Hobbsee | it just gets treated like a symlink, to my knowledge. ditto to the separate /home | 02:15 |
| Hobbsee | you can still cd /, and rm /home/$user | 02:15 |

| fdoving | mhb: don't know, kubuntu-default-settings has removed the /.hidden file.. | 02:23 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: yes, check out /etc/cron.daily/apt | 02:23 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: neat | 02:24 |
| fdoving | Hobbsee: however, /etc/cron.daily/apt looks for some variables, which is set in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archive, which is provided by update-notifier, which we don't supply. | 02:24 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: neat. | 02:26 |
| Hobbsee | fdoving: seems like we should add it to the adept nofitier then | 02:26 |
| fdoving | so, adding that to a package, and divert the ubuntu one, would be a nice solutuion. | 02:26 |
| fdoving | that would be smart. | 02:27 |
| Hobbsee | sorry? | 02:27 |
| fdoving | what? | 02:28 |
| Hobbsee | i didnt understand what you said | 02:28 |
| fdoving | about diverting the ubuntu one? | 02:28 |
| Hobbsee | that whole line | 02:28 |
| fdoving | man dpkg-divert | 02:29 |
| fdoving | we don't want to conflict with update-notifier | 02:29 |
| Hobbsee | you could just make adep tinstall that file if it wasnt already installed, i guess | 02:29 |
| Hobbsee | indeed | 02:29 |
| fdoving | there are more apt.conf files provided by update-notifier we want.. | 02:30 |
| fdoving | atleast /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10periodic | 02:30 |
| fdoving | 15adept-periodic-update does the same though.. | 02:30 |
| Hobbsee | right | 02:30 |
| fdoving | we want to move one of them out of the way. | 02:31 |
| Hobbsee | could always add them in the postinst or something :P | 02:31 |

| fdoving | or, we could use higher numbers than ubuntu, to override them. (that's evil though, as they have configuration interfaces to their settings.. and they wouldn't work when we install our config with a higher priority) | 02:35 |
| fdoving | .. that's already done with the 15adept-periodic-update | 02:36 |
| fdoving | overrides 10periodic | 02:36 |
| fdoving | if we do the same with 20archive, and make our own 25adept-archive | 02:36 |
| fdoving | that would work.. but it's not nice, as we don't have graphical config utils, ubuntu does (inside synaptic).. | 02:37 |
| fdoving | if we override the settings set there, by higher priority configs, users running ubuntu, having kubuntu installed alongside, will get confused. | 02:38 |

| fdoving | adept manager -> adept -> manage repositories | 03:00 |
| Hobbsee | no | 03:01 |
| Hobbsee | but that option is greyed out for me | 03:01 |
| fdoving | hum.. | 03:02 |
| fdoving | that was a problem in edgy too.. before the patch.. | 03:02 |
| fdoving | anyway.. i'll make a patch to add the 25ardept-archive-limits file, and then leave the source manager to others. | 03:04 |
| mhb | fdoving: I think there was a bugreport about it | 03:04 |
| mhb | wasn't it? | 03:04 |
| fdoving | mhb: there was, and there was a patch too.. | 03:04 |
| fdoving | I see the patch in the source package.. (feisty that is).. but i'm not sure it works as intended. | 03:05 |

| === gnomefreak needs a feisty image since edgys wont install on here :( | ||
| Jucato | gnomefreak: still named edgy-desktop-i386.iso, still uses edgy's kernel, still shows up as Edgy in lsb_release -a | 03:37 |
| gnomefreak | that would mean its an edgy image :) | 03:38 |
| Jucato | that was from rsync. I downloaded the "feisty" image from cdimage.ubuntu.com, still got the same results, and the same md5sum | 03:38 |
| gnomefreak | so ther eare no feistty images at all out | 03:38 |

| fdoving | Riddell: new adept that provides /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/25adept-archive-limits to limit the size of /var/cache/apt/archives/ on kubuntu systems (/etc/cron.daily/apt) available at: http://ubuntu.lnix.net/feisty/adept/C[C[C[C[C[C[C | 11:44 |
| fdoving | make that http://ubuntu.lnix.net/feisty/adept/ | 11:44 |
| fdoving | Riddell: a little background info, /etc/cron.daily/apt uses apt-config to look for APT::Archives::MaxAge, MinAge, and MaxSize, among others.. those are set in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20archive (in package update-notifier) on ubuntu systems. kubuntu systems does not provide these keys. which is a bad thing. | 11:47 |
| Riddell | fdoving: cool, I'll look at that tomorrow, if update-notifier provides them that sounds good for us too | 11:48 |
| fdoving | this fix will work the same way 15adept-periodic-update does, it overrides the ubuntu configs with a higher number (10periodic vs 15adept-periodic... 20archive vs 25adept-archive-limits.. and so on) | 11:48 |
| fdoving | also, we | 11:49 |
| fdoving | might consider this as an -updates for edgy, and maybe dapper too.. as the apt-archive on those kubutnu systems will probably grow huge if they don't know how to use apt-get clean/autoclean.. or install ubuntu-desktop. | 11:49 |
| Riddell | I'm not too keen on doing SRU if they're not obviously necessary, it's quite time consuming | 11:52 |
| fdoving | I know, i'm just thinking about the users here.. | 11:52 |
| fdoving | It's probably not a problem, it's not like there are many GB of updates either.. | 11:53 |
