gnomefreakcrimsun: i cant use debians version so what do i use for upstream02:18
crimsunerr...?02:18
gnomefreaki assume the tar from mozilla02:18
crimsun(missing context here)02:18
gnomefreakcrimsun: ok building scribus i had to apt-get source it from ubutnu and download debians version02:19
gnomefreakis it the same (except mozilla's tar instead of debians)02:19
gnomefreakor can i just apt-get source firefox and build that?02:20
gnomefreakfrom what i gather with looking at the wikis on building packages we get the source the dsc and the diff from debian. firefox is no longer in debian. that is wher eim confused02:26

asaccan you try if you see it there?01:17

gnomefreakyeah01:18
gnomefreakits not there in the upstream ff3 but i will try after its fully updated01:18

Admiral_Chicagoclass now02:31
gnomefreaksomeone shoot me for being so damn stupid :(02:43
gnomefreakdo we have connections upstream mozilla?02:43
asacsomehow :)02:43
asacwhat do you need?02:43
gnomefreakff3 is messed up on latest nightly02:44
gnomefreakcant bookmark pages it brings up just the window top frame02:45
=== gnomefreak thinks he shoul dmake a bugtracker account at mozilla
asacyou run nightly builds ... I did a build yesterday ... let me try02:46
gnomefreaknightly on ff3.0 yeah. but i missed a few weeks so it could have been in that time02:46
asachmmm ... i can bookmark here02:48
gnomefreaki cant :(02:48
gnomefreakmaybe ill rebuild it the crap way later02:49
gnomefreakdid you build a deb for it or the short way of untarring it and symlinking it?02:52
gnomefreakthats weird now it works. i moved the bookmarks.html out and now it works02:57
asacgnomefreak: I build from CVS for now ... I wanted to test the high cpu download-manager bug03:02
asacgnomefreak: maybe the trunk was broken at some point and breached your bookmarks.html ?03:03
gnomefreakcould have been but they work now03:03
asacyour old bookmarks.html too?03:04
=== gnomefreak might try my hand at building ff3 intoa deb if possible
gnomefreakasac: the new one03:04
gnomefreakthe one that ff3 uses since i installed it03:04
gnomefreaki just moved them into ~/ and than back now they work03:05
asacgnomefreak: good ... if you do, consider to call the package firefox-snapshot or something. we actually might want that in the archive at some point.03:07
asacif you have questions about debs feel free to ask :)03:07
=== gnomefreak new to packaging the right way but first im gonna see if i can do it than i will see about it for snapshot
gnomefreakwe could really use extensions for alpha/beta releases03:14
asacsorry .... extensions?03:16
asacah ... your mean extensions to the package name ... yes, probably ... though03:16
asacwe have to figure out with upstreams trademark policy first03:16
asacat least if we put it in the official archive.03:17
asacas a matter of fact, they don't call their alpha/beta builds firefox either03:17
asacbut "Bon Echo", "Minefield", etc.03:17
gnomefreakyeah :( mozilla confused me with that03:18
asacI will have to figure out ... maybe its ok to name the package firefox-trunk .... but keep the code-name branding.03:19
asacincluding the ugly "earth logo" :)03:20
gnomefreakwe have the red yellow and blue one now :)03:20
gnomefreakdebian doesnt have a build of ff still do they?03:21
asacno ... unlikely that they will in the near future03:25
asacups pm :)03:25
asacgnomefreak: for mozillas we are now mostly on our own03:25
=== gnomefreak has strange feeling this is gonna need to be synced before it can be built
asacyeah ... patches need to be adapted03:27
gnomefreakwell for the next hour i will see what can be done. i dont do syncing and i doubt the devel team would concider it ill brb phone03:29
=== gnomefreak testing the downloader
asacgreat ;)03:39
gnomefreakwe wanna test these downlaods using firefox not wget right?03:41
gnomefreakweird i get a scrolling progress bar03:43
gnomefreakseems to be "normal" on 3.003:43
gnomefreakother than the way the bar moves but that can be new03:44
asacdownloads with firefox ... yes03:45
asacthe bar moves ... thats right ... the bug is about high-cpu usage if you download a file which has no content-length given03:46
asacand download-manager is open.03:46
asacdo you see that?03:46
gnomefreak3.103:47
gnomefreakthats not too bad for cpu usage on the one without content03:47
asacsame for the "without content-length" and the "with content-length" download?03:47
gnomefreakhasnt started with yet03:47
asacis this on P2 ?03:47
gnomefreakp4 1.7ghz03:47
gnomefreaksometime this afternoon i will try edgy and ff203:48
gnomefreakon the p203:48
asacyeah ... at best on p203:48
asacgreat03:48
asaci saw this issue this weekend on my girlfriends machine ... which is pIII 70003:48
asacunfortunately i have no access to it now  :/03:49
asacsaw this on edgy03:49
gnomefreakbrb ill go try it real fast now03:51
asacnothing to hurry03:52
gnomefreaksee the progress bar is showing the right way on the one with the content03:52
gnomefreakright == moves as the download progresses03:52
gnomefreakthe onther one just kept scrolling didnt move with download03:53
gnomefreakbug 12333403:53
gnomefreakhmmm03:54
gnomefreaki will ping seveas later and see if we cant get ubugtu to do upstream bugs too03:54
gnomefreakseems normal here other than the  way the progress bar moves03:55
gnomefreakIMHO mozilla needs to stop using auto tools and let us compile it03:58
gnomefreakbrb running up to test it03:58
gnomefreakre-producable in edgy with a p2 450mhz04:10

asacgnomefreak: do you know how to build deb packages?05:01
asacgnomefreak: I have a patch for the download thing ... maybe you try ;)05:01
gnomefreaknot with 3.0 only my feisty has 3.0 edgy is stock ff05:13
gnomefreakusing debhelper i have built 1  but if its as simple as just apt-get source firefox and build it from the ubuntu version shouldnt be too bad. i just have to learn how to add the patch05:15
asacgood :) ... for now you can directly patch /usr/lib/firefox/ ... but I have first to figure out how to make the patch accessible :)05:16

gnomefreakthe download in top stays around the same Xorg spikes but i think i know the reason for that. i would say it fixed it05:30
asachmmm .... what Xorg spikes?05:31
gnomefreakasac: it the window itself. i used the link for ubuntu bug tracker its a flash video05:32
gnomefreakits off of myspace05:32
asacok ... but without content-length header?05:32
gnomefreaki am gonna try the other ones it didnt say. accourding to the report if i understood right he said its unknow size/file but its known here so i will try other links from upstream05:33
asacyes try the ones from bugzilla05:40
gnomefreakasac: if i move the downloader around it spikes to 35+%05:40
asacok ... on a slow machine that might be reasonable ... and unrelated :)05:40
asacwould be nice to know for sure, that you get high cpu usage before the patch on that machine ... and considerably lower cpu usage after patch05:41
asac(without moving window around)05:41
gnomefreakcomparing the 2 on this pc no content is 20+% higher05:42
gnomefreakthan with content05:42

gnomefreakasac: how high can i make that number? with it set to 500,000 (without the ,) im getting around 36-38% cpu still high06:36
gnomefreak33 atm06:37
asachmmm ... so it makes no difference?06:37
asaci think 500000 is too large06:37
gnomefreaknot looking like it06:37
asac5000 is the same as 500 ?06:37
gnomefreakabout little less but not alot06:37
gnomefreak5000 == 50000006:37
asacwierd ;)06:38
gnomefreak500 was maybe 5-10% differnet than 500006:38
asachmm ... hard to say. ... maybe one need to fix the /rotating/ progress bar too06:39
gnomefreakonly the non-content has the rotating bar though the other one is the right bar06:39
asaci guess it contributes most of the performance-panelty that is left to compared with content-elgnth06:40
asacyeah ... the rotating bar is the one that requires generically more redraws06:40
asacthats why it still eats up lots of cpu cycles06:40
asacanyway thanks ... if its really better than without patch then we already have solved half the issue :)06:41
gnomefreakits about 20%ish better than without the patch06:42
gnomefreakim wondering if cleaning my download history would make a difference06:43
asacyeah ... I guess it fixes the most serious issue ... that the download UI wants to update each time the network has new data :)06:43

AlexLatchfordyeah probably07:39
asac:-P07:39
gnomefreakbtw it will still do malone as default07:39
AlexLatchfordwhen did that get setup?07:39
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: a while ago i think07:39
asacnice ;) ... default malone is ok too i guess07:39
AlexLatchfordwell we will be using Malone more than Mozilla Bugzilla, so it makes sense07:40
=== gnomefreak needs an easy way to know if a bug is reported upstream other than trampling through the swamp of bugs

asacits always been a pita ... but most bugs do indeed already exist07:41
=== gnomefreak wonders if they will set bughelper with upstream
asacfor crashers we no other chance then looking up talkbacks or searching for arbitrary method names in the stacktrace07:42
=== gnomefreak can only read a few stacktraces just things im kind used to seeing. mainly apt/update-manager

AlexLatchfordseems reasonable10:49

gnomefreakif you run into bugs where ff has a depends issue please let me know thats an easy fix 80% of time and lets me work on packaging10:52
Admiral_Chicagookay I can remember that10:53
=== gnomefreak gonna get smacked
gnomefreakwho thinks adding colorzilla to repos is a good idea?10:57

AlexLatchfordwell at the moment its completely broken10:57

AlexLatchfordI emailed the author and the fix he gave me wasn't working10:58
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: i tried that already with this bug10:58
AlexLatchfordwell its not completely broken, but the eyedropper thing isn;t working, which is what most people use it for10:58
AlexLatchfordthere was the response I got from the developer on the mailing list somewhere10:59
gnomefreaklets see if asac whats to even think about touching that first. i think it sa bad idea personally because its crap. but a good idea in the sense we can keep track of it11:00
=== gnomefreak has found mozilla plugins to be very much garbage and very few patches are added
AlexLatchfordwell all people are going to is install it from Mozilla Add-ons site, then report it as a bug under Firefox11:01
AlexLatchfordyes11:01
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: more for us to close11:01
AlexLatchfordyes11:01
gnomefreakwe nee da addons bug tracker11:01
gnomefreakneed a11:01
gnomefreakis there one?11:01
Admiral_Chicagoas in extension for us?11:01
Admiral_Chicagowe don't track extensions.11:02
AlexLatchforderm, dont think there is an add-ons tracker as such11:02
gnomefreakAdmiral_Chicago: as in a place we can say here file it <here to get help>11:02
AlexLatchfordLet me ask in #qa in Mozilla IRC11:02
gnomefreakupstream dont support them ubutnu dont support them11:02
Admiral_Chicagognomefreak: oh I see11:02
gnomefreaki suggest we close them and dont look back11:02
gnomefreakcuts our bugs in half11:02
gnomefreakIMHO if upstream cant suppoort something why should we11:03
Admiral_Chicagogood point11:03
AlexLatchfordI agree, but thats not the attitude to have, its still a part of the software, its a key feature to many people having extensions in firefox11:03
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: in that case do we support anything that someone installs on thier pc no matter what? where do we draw the line?11:04
AlexLatchfordhmm ok11:04
AlexLatchfordgot me on that one11:04
gnomefreaki would be glasd to support it11:04
gnomefreakbut we dont have the man power to do it11:05
gnomefreakwe have at tops 3 coders11:05
AlexLatchfordeah I guess11:05
gnomefreakbut like i said i will get with asac in the next 48 hours and see what he thinks to adding suppport for some addons. the problem <addon#1> only has one person taking care of it kind of hurts us if he decides to not support it any more11:06
AlexLatchfordyes11:06
gnomefreaki would like to see us hav ea bunch of them but i think we should *write* thema nd support them11:07
gnomefreakinstead of relying on someone we cant get intouch with11:07
AlexLatchfordI personally think we should not support the binary versions of it, which Ubuntu maintins11:07
AlexLatchfordbut when we get bugs when the user installed it from addons.Mozilla.org then that bug should be sent upstream11:08
AlexLatchfordthis way we are not responsible, but we still keep that bug open to watch it11:08
AlexLatchfordbut should we keep it open.. meh11:08
gnomefreakbut i dont think we should have open bugs when upstream is the only ones dealing with it11:08
AlexLatchfordhmm yeah I suppose11:08
AlexLatchfordI see your point11:09
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: i will agree with you if we can get bugs under 30011:09
AlexLatchfordbut until then its not worth it11:09
gnomefreakor under 100 ;)11:09
AlexLatchfordlol11:09
AlexLatchforddon't think that will happen for a while11:09
gnomefreaki closed a bunch today11:09
Admiral_Chicagocool. gk11:10
Admiral_Chicagogj*11:10
gnomefreaksometime this week we need to talk to david asac and whoever else11:10
AlexLatchfordwell thing is, closing is all well and good11:10
AlexLatchfordalot fo them need to be closed11:10
AlexLatchfordbut alot of them also need fixing11:10
AlexLatchfordwhen you see it though, hardly any a week get fixed11:10
=== Admiral_Chicago away now. getting ahead of his work
AlexLatchfordthere are hundreds of confirmed bugs in the list, but no-one is taking responsibility to fix them11:11
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: now we have a maintainer i see bugs being worked on more. today me and asac worked tested a patch for a bug11:12
AlexLatchfordwe have a maintainer?11:12
asacactually we should check anyway if the bug already exist ... linking it to upstream bug instead of closing it is more user-friendly and will inform the reporter if bug gets fixed.11:12
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: yes asac is11:12
AlexLatchfordoh right ok11:12
gnomefreakim closing bugs that are old no info bleh11:12
gnomefreaknotice all the bugs i send to your mail are old ones11:12
gnomefreakclean old ones work on new ones :)11:13
AlexLatchfordyes11:13
gnomefreakasac: are we shipping that patch or you gonna work on the progress bar?11:13
asacyes ... if they are not reproducible anymore and reporter is unavailable, closing bugs from time to time is good.11:14
asacthe procedure for patch inclusion is - due to mozilla trademark policy - not that easy11:14
gnomefreakoh11:14
asacwe get approval from them as soon as we have a good patch11:14
gnomefreakok works for me11:14
asacthen we can include it ... but i might press them so we get fast approval11:14
gnomefreakasac: only if you can :)11:15
asacfor the download patch ... I will try to address progress window issue too11:15
AlexLatchford(This process just seems to get more complicated everytime I delve into it)11:15
gnomefreakAlexLatchford: what one?11:15
AlexLatchfordreporting/triaging/fixing/releasing bugs11:15
=== gnomefreak has never found an *easy* bug
AlexLatchfordI am just learning the fixing stage now lol11:16
AlexLatchford(who it entails)11:16
AlexLatchfordwhat even11:16
AlexLatchfordseems to be 20 steps to fix a simple bug11:16
=== gnomefreak not up on mozilla procedure
asaci expect to commit a good amount of my time to communicate with upstream in order to get patches approved ... so if you don't want to bother it, you don't have to ;)11:17
=== gnomefreak will give you a hand with anything i can to get some of these bugs fixed
AlexLatchfordwhat language is firefox written in?11:21
gnomefreaka few afaik11:22
AlexLatchfordwhats the main ones?11:22
asacthere are different levels11:22
gnomefreakjava :)11:22
asacC++ is the core11:22
asacthen you have xul (xml for GUI description)11:23
asacand js (to implement user interaction)11:23
asacyou could compare implementing the firefox main window more like developing a javascript enabled webapplication11:23
asacof course its different ... but just to give a hint11:23
AlexLatchfordoh right ok11:24
gnomefreakim gonna work on a ff build for practice tonight to se if i undertand it right. i have a feeling its a bit differnet than building scribus11:24
asacprobably ;)11:25
AlexLatchfordlol, think my lack of experience in the actually release of fixes is hindering me11:25

gnomefreaksince ther eis no debian files to change i assume i just change ubuntus changlog rules control than dh_build tha pbuilder11:25
asacyou want to build the package or upstream source directly?11:26
=== gnomefreak suggests #83483 tries another extention
gnomefreakasac: rebuild like if i added patch11:26
asacah ... ok so rebuilding ubuntu package with patches ... that should be pretty similar to scribus11:27
gnomefreakversion number goes up one. i cant image it s too hard11:27
asacyes11:27
=== gnomefreak thinks we need easier docs to understand for packaging but the main points are there
asacgnomefreak: if you setup questions i can answer on wiki11:28
