kwwiiI hope to have something done by tomorrow...I'll ping you so you can have a look at what I have made03:19
kwwiiSeveas: one of the problems is that people seem to think that the progress bar is smaller than on the desktop. sabdfl would like to have the progress bar look exactly like the one on the desktop03:20

kwwiialefteris: I doubt that the gdm from ubuntu went upstream since it is distro specific04:17
kwwiibut if you want the sources for it, run "apt-get source ubuntu-artwork"04:19
alefteriskwwii, ok that is what i did.. so the sources for the theme are kept ionly n bazzar?04:21

troy_salefteris: "Branch" a bzr repository of the issue in question05:35
troy_sas in05:36
troy_s'sudo apt-get install bzr' (if you don't already have it)05:36
troy_sgo to www.launchpad.net/products and find the 'product' in question05:37
troy_sin this case, feisty-gdm-themes05:37
troy_sclick on 'code' in the left panel to get the list of branches that are available from bzr05:37
troy_sclick on the branch in question05:38
troy_sand copy the link for use with bzr05:38
troy_sin this case, it is:05:38
troy_sbzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/feisty-gdm-themes/ubuntu05:38
troy_soops05:38
troy_sbzr branch http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg/feisty-gdm-themes/ubuntu my-local-feisty-gdm-themes05:38
troy_swhich will create a subdirectory called 'my-local-feisty-gdm-themes'05:38
troy_sgo into that directory, and make the changes.05:38
troy_stest it (either using symlinks or trying the make which may not work if you have added files)05:39
troy_sonce you are certain you have fixed the issue05:39
troy_spush your 'new' branch as per wiki.ubuntu.com/Bzr and register it against the bug report by selecting 'add a branch' and notify the bug listing.05:39
troy_sphew.05:39
troy_sbasically two steps:05:39
troy_s 1) branch the bzr and make your fixes05:40
troy_s 2) push and update bug listing with a comment and a branch05:40
troy_sthat makes it easiest for daniel to merge your changes.05:40
troy_salefteris: Ok?05:40
troy_sif you need further help or tutoring, just ping me.05:40
alefteristroy_s, ok this seems a lot easier than the way I made a patch from the sources :)05:41
troy_sit is very easy05:41
troy_sthe problem is, if you haven't setup bzr yet, you will need to take an additional step to set it up at launchpad05:41
troy_sonce you have done that, it is _very_ easy to push changes05:41
alefteriswhen i finish, who should i contact? daniel?05:41
troy_snote -- they won't take effect until one of the artwork packagers takes notice...05:42
troy_sno.05:42
troy_salthough he is an artwork packager05:42
troy_sthe best bet05:42
troy_sis to simply subscribe or make sure that an artwork packager is subscribed.05:42
alefterisi should assign the bug to ubuntu-artwork-packagers?05:42
alefterisok thanks05:43
troy_shttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-art-pkg05:43
troy_syou could subscribe the team yes05:43
troy_sthat SHOULD notify them05:43
troy_sbut again, the formalized process is missing key players to take on the duties.05:43
troy_sthose folks have team access to the bzr so they can push formal changes to the main 'trunk' branch05:43
troy_skwwii has access too05:44
troy_sand he is probably a good pointman now as canonical is paying his rent05:44
kwwii:-)05:44
troy_sthere he is :)05:44
alefterishehe#05:44
troy_sthe bottom line though05:44
kwwiijust got back from my walk05:44
troy_sis that you want to make it as PAINLESS for the packagers as possible05:44
kwwiialefteris: are you talking about the font change in gdm?05:44
troy_swhich means using bzr05:44
alefteriskwwii, yes05:44
lizardkinghi05:44
troy_sthen they can simply do a bzr merge05:44
troy_swithout farting around with pain05:44
lizardkingwhat do you are talking about?05:44
troy_sbzr merge, bzr push05:45
troy_slizardking: fixing reported bugs05:45
kwwiialefteris: I agree completely with you, so once it is pushed we'll use it05:45
alefterisok I do it right away05:45
troy_salefteris:  oh yes... i forgot to mention05:45
kwwiiif we do it before thursdasy it will be in the next herd05:46
lizardkingtroy_s: is there new feisty artwork or is the same than edgy?05:46
troy_smake sure that the 'powers that be' agree before you bother to work on something.  they will be a little more responsive now that we have kwwii handling ubuntu details.05:46
troy_slizardking: kwwii is handling that.05:46
troy_slizardking: if you are wise, you would not try to get involved as it directly involves the master of aesthetic nightmares himself -- sabdfl.05:46
troy_slizardking: but that is just my 2c.05:47
troy_slizardking: pretty sure that who_, jmak, fschoep, and others anyone else who survived his edgy endgame would agree.05:47
lizardkingtroy_s: Last week I wrote at sabdfl asking the question of trademark05:49
troy_strademark regarding?05:50
kwwiifrom what I understand the decision making for the default theme will stay in canonical hands at least for a little while (as he is paying for this). This doesn't mean that people cannot work on it, it just means that the direction it takes will be directly controlled by someone05:50
lizardkingtroy_s: yes, he does not answer me yet05:51
kwwiiin the meantime, the plan is to make the automated theme building stuff as good/simple as possible05:51
troy_skwwii:  Practically, it means that working on it is nightmarish without design concepts and such.  Unless you value the 'throw sh*t at the wall and hope it sticks' approach.05:51
kwwiiso that everyone can create a theme however they like05:51
troy_slizardking: he probably wont... you have to appreciate that sabby is _damn_ busy05:51
kwwiitroy_s: yeah, that is part of what I am trying to work out05:51
troy_sand he gets about sixteen thousand emails a day.05:51
kwwiilizardking: perhaps I could answer your question05:52
lizardkingtroy_s:  yes I suppos that05:52
troy_skwwii: Problem is you can't work it out if the guy who is calling the aesthetic judgements has zero sense on the matter nor ideas on implementation strategies.05:52
lizardkingkwwii: I'm hearing you05:52
troy_salefteris: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BzrContributorHowto05:53
kwwiitroy_s: hopefully once I "prove" myself things will change in that regards05:53
troy_sthere is a summary of what i just described, but with different teams involved.05:53
troy_skwwii:  I don't know.  I suspect he wants a patsy, which might earn his faith, but possibly doesn't help the larger issues.05:53
kwwiiwell, that is my fear as well ;-)05:54
troy_skwwii:  The main problem is that05:54
troy_skwwii: "art" is actually a many pronged element in an operating system -- there is implementation artwork (like icons/walls/etc) but then there is the artistry of design.05:54
troy_swhich is an entire other can of worms.05:54
troy_skwwii:  The true unfortunate portion of this entire puzzle is that there are some _very_ knowledgeable folks already in our midst who would at least be able to engage the concepts on a semantic level and attempt to address them in terms of future design patterns.05:55
troy_s(read people like Darkmatter, TheSheep, etc.)05:55
lizardkingkwwii: : please Can you tell me what is the answer to my question?05:56
troy_sknowledgable _and_ researched.05:56
troy_slizardking: Your question needs clarification.  What form of licensing for what?05:56
kwwiilizardking: I didn't quite understand the question05:56
lizardkingkwwii: :ok, I mean the truoble of oransoda trademark. Kwwii tells me that he has the answer05:57
kwwiitroy_s: I think that until now the biggest problems have been that of simple artwork and continuity, not the bigger, more long term design issues05:57
kwwiilizardking: well, you cannot use anything that is trademarked by anyone05:58
=== cryingfreeman [n=matfri@c83-255-78-49.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu-artwork
kwwiilizardking: that is a major no-no, unless you have permission from those who hold the trademark05:58
troy_skwwii:  I think most people who try to get involved with ubuntu artwork seek to break off from the continuity that has been established.05:58
troy_skwwii:  Arguably, making _any_ change is a departure from continuity.05:58
kwwiitroy_s: yepp, we tend to get 8 differing opinions from 5 people05:59
troy_skwwii:  Currently, the continuity is nothing more than an accident that happens to meet sabdfl's liking.05:59
lizardkingkwwii: : ok05:59
troy_skwwii:  lol.  To say the least.05:59
kwwiithat is also true, probably because he doesn't have the time to lead this correctly05:59
troy_skwwii:  But the bottom line is that if the end result of all of this is to simply make the Ubuntu current look operate more effectively, I don't know how much support there is going to be in the end.05:59
cryingfreemanHi everyone, can you tell me if there are any Ubuntu slideshows, logos etc that is available for download? I need some for a presentation that I'm about to do..05:59
kwwiibut I think that by hiring me there is a long term plan to fix things05:59
kwwiitroy_s: right05:59
kwwiitroy_s: basically I get to start at the very bottom and build everything up again06:00
troy_skwwii:  And with a distribution such as Ubuntu, we can possibly really 'shape' interface considerations in much the same way that Novell was trying to do with little bits like SLAB etc.06:00
kwwiicryingfreeman: check the wiki06:00
lizardkingcryingfreeman: : Do you view the Impress OpenOffice ubuntu template or examples?06:00
troy_skwwii:  Problem with 'building up' is that we are still stuck with sabdfl's fundamental direction, which is haphazard to say the least.06:00
troy_scryingfreeman do a search for DIY marketing on the wiki06:01
kwwiitroy_s: as I have some experience with Novell I must say that all that work is done in a closed room by 3 people06:01
troy_skwwii:  Which reminds me06:01
lizardkingkwwii: : It's not true open development the Novell's one, in my opinion06:01
troy_skwwii:  Can you (as a rather higher priority because I have responded to at least 20 irc and 30 email requests) attempt to get the source svg files into the bzr repos for who's ubuntu logo?06:01
kwwiitroy_s: oh, I can see lots of places where things can go wrong, and I know that it will be very tricky to work this out right06:02
cryingfreemanlizardking: Didn't know there were any. :)06:02
kwwiias even sabdfl doesn't completely understand the subject06:02
troy_skwwii:  That's fine too... my issue isn't with the process that Novell implements -- it is the fact that SOMEWHERE in the line, they are ATTEMPTING to innovate.06:02
cryingfreemanTroy_s: Thanks a bundle. :) keep up the good work.06:02
kwwiitroy_s: is that the one that is used in edgy? I found them on the wiki06:02
lizardkingcryingfreeman: Yes they are there! and are quite cool. Btw I advice you to make slides with LateX Beamer ;)06:02
kwwiitroy_s: and then redrew them myself06:03
kwwiisimplifying things, etc06:03
troy_skwwii:  Obviously the 'Novell paradigm' leaves at least as much to desire as our own regarding process ;)06:03
troy_skwwii:  The source files SHOULD be in the source repository on bzr06:03
troy_sas it is the 'sources'06:03
troy_swith me"/06:03
troy_s?06:03
kwwiiahhh, yeah, true06:03
troy_s(yet another baby step to 'art and design' getting its shit together.  ;) )06:03
kwwiihehe, yeah06:03
troy_swe shouldn't need to crawl the wiki to get instant sources06:03
troy_shell -- that is what bzr is for :)06:04
kwwiiyepp, very true06:04
lizardkingfolks I have to go studying...see U soon ok?06:04
kwwiilizardking: see you soon06:04
kwwiitroy_s: yeah, it took we quite a while to find the stuff I need06:04
troy_sfurther, keeping up to date is far easier... (and dare I say with SVGs diff might provide detailed changes in the actual filestructure which is rather interesting)06:04
kwwiiand I still haven't found everything06:04
troy_skwwii:  So when you push your package, put the sources in there and simply exclude them from the build package06:04
troy_sfollow me?06:04
lizardkingInformation Retrieval wants me :(.. havea nice day! bye06:04
kwwiitroy_s: yepp, I will do that06:05
troy_sIt also allows us to utilize powerful applications like imagemagick or other cmd line tools to 'break' images apart from their sources -- saving06:05

troy_syes...06:47
troy_syou aren't choosing a good branch to push to06:47
troy_sA) Have you published your SSH key?06:47
alefterisyes06:47
troy_sB) If you have, you should include the product and push to your local spot on the Bazaar server.06:47
troy_sfor example:06:47
troy_sbzr push sftp://alefteris@bazaar.launchpad.net/~alefteris/feisty-gdm-themes/fontfix06:49
troy_sor something like that06:50
troy_snote06:50
troy_salefteris: the 'alefteris' is your Launchpad identity string.06:50
troy_si just used alefteris as an example06:50
troy_salefteris: Ok?06:50
alefterisok i show the .bug00 naming in one of the documents you told me to look, thats why i used it06:51
troy_ssure...06:51
troy_sthat's fine too06:51
troy_sbut note the syntax06:51
troy_swhat is your lp identity?06:51
alefterisalefteris06:51
troy_sok so06:52
troy_sbzr push sftp://alefteris@bazaar.launchpad.net/~alefteris/feisty-gdm-themes/fix.bug7082906:52
troy_sbetter?06:52
troy_s;)06:52
troy_snote that you could push to ~alefteris/whateveryouwant06:52
troy_sbut if you include the feisty-gdm-themes in there, i think it will automatically be crosslinked from the feisty 'other branches' page.06:53

alefterisok but what happens with the .bug branch that failed? it apears in https://code.launchpad.net/feisty-gdm-themes/+branches. Can i remove it?06:54
troy_serm let me look06:56
troy_salefteris: on a side note, what did you generate your edgy vm vmplayer vmx file with?06:57
troy_shttps://code.launchpad.net/~alefteris/+branch/feisty-gdm-themes/ubuntu.bug7082906:57
alefterisfrom here: http://www.easyvmx.com/06:57
troy_stry heading there06:57
troy_sand06:57
troy_smarking the branch as abandoned06:57
troy_ssee if that works.06:57
troy_slet me see if there is another option06:57
troy_s(delete functionality is missing from bzr as of now -- it will be added soon hopefully -- until then abandoned is all you can do)06:58
troy_stry marking it as abandoned and it SHOULD be removed from branch listings.06:58
alefteristroy_s, what's this warning in the brarch webpage about? Launchpad could not mirror this branch at 2007-02-06 20:00:09 EET.  The error was: Not a branch: /srv/sm-ng/push-branches/00/00/0b/00/.bzr/branch/07:02
troy_syeah it means you didn't finish the push07:27
troy_sas in it doesn't exist07:27
troy_sso simply push something empty to it for a success07:27
troy_sif you can07:27

troy_salefteris: did you get it to work ok?08:12
alefteristroy_s, yeah, the warning message is gone now :)08:14
alefterisvery easy way to fix bugs :)08:15
troy_swoo!08:17
troy_sbzr is great, but still has some 'features' :)08:17
troy_sthe folks in #bzr are MORE than helpful.08:17
alefterisbut still im not sure how can someone can test the changes that he makes in his bzr branch08:19
alefterisyou cant build a package this way..08:19
alefterisi think..08:19
troy_salefteris: The build functions08:20
troy_sare written by Daniel08:20
troy_skwwii and dholbach have been reworking the artwork build process to make it better08:21
troy_sthat said, for now, it will build if you don't add any files -- changing existing files should still build properly.08:21
troy_sstandard build procedures are cd DIRECTORY08:21
troy_s./configure08:21
troy_s./make08:21
troy_serm08:22
troy_sfor debian it is checkinstall or whatever the hell command.08:22
troy_sanyways, that will build a package and install it via dpkg08:22
troy_sthen you can test it.08:22
troy_sif you know how to test gdms without packages, just test the code and you can skip 'building' the damn thing08:22
alefteristroy_s, it would help on this was added to the wiki page..08:24
alefterisi mean a section about testing before pushing the changes08:24
troy_salefteris: I would add something, but it is still up in the air.08:25
troy_sHell I had to fight like a bugger to try and get the artwork team to start using bzr...08:25
troy_sat least now, it is progressing.08:26
troy_salefteris: the more you use it, the more you can help others.08:26
troy_salefteris: Build instructions are pretty simple... let me see if I can find an archived email.08:26
troy_sdebuild -us -uc && sudo debi08:28
troy_salefteris: That is for CURRENT build system mechanics (automake hell)08:28
troy_sthe new system will use python setup I believe08:28
alefterisoh its the same way that i used to build from the package sources08:30
troy_salefteris: But yes... you should test them before you push them.08:30
troy_syes.08:30
troy_sthe difference with that command08:30
troy_sis that you get a package that gets installed so you can remove it.08:30
troy_sas opposed to dealing with the nightmare of tracing files08:30
