[12:15] <nixternal> I will do in a bit, time for some bbq burgers
[01:09] <jjesse> hmmm no comments from editor tonight so that must be good
[01:09] <jjesse> i'm considering the book done :)
[01:10] <nixternal> woohoo
[01:10] <nixternal> all Feisty docs complete!
[01:10] <nixternal> well, I still have to do the release notes, but that is for kubuntu.org
[01:19] <jjesse> cheer
[01:19] <jjesse> congrats
[01:21] <nixternal> congrats to you as well
[05:12] <nixternal> LaserJock: how do you think I should go about fixing that bug?
[05:12] <nixternal> renaming the firefox-index in kubuntu do something else?
[05:14] <Admiral_Chicago> nixternal: the kubuntu-docs apt error?
[05:14] <nixternal> yes
[05:15] <nixternal> bug 91749
[05:15] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 91749 in kubuntu-docs "file confict with ubuntu-docs" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/91749
[05:15] <LaserJock> how was it done before?
[05:15] <Admiral_Chicago> yup, I can repoduce
[05:15] <nixternal> LaserJock: it was never named firefox-index
[05:16] <nixternal> all I have to do is change firefox-index.html to something else
[05:16] <nixternal> firefoxindex.html maybe
[05:16] <LaserJock> but I don't understand what happened to cause this
[05:17] <nixternal> LaserJock: I changed the firefox homepage
[05:17] <nixternal> it used to be the about-kubuntu
[05:17] <nixternal> but I created a new one emulating those found in the other projects
[05:17] <nixternal> so all I have to do is change the name in postinst and it will work
[05:18] <nixternal> which I can do seeing it isn't a string
[05:18] <LaserJock> I see
[05:19] <nixternal> so naming it to something different will close that bug and fix the issue
[05:20] <nixternal> I can fix it, create the debdiff and then see what Riddell says about it
[05:21] <nixternal> kfirefox-index.html
[05:24] <Admiral_Chicago> nixternal: can you explain what you are doing to me
[05:24] <Admiral_Chicago> fwis, that bug is on our end.
[05:24] <Admiral_Chicago> oh wait, different bug
[05:25] <Admiral_Chicago> you are talking about the conflicts right?
[05:25] <nixternal> correct. my latest package I created I made a new firefox-startpage
[05:25] <nixternal> yes, conflicts
[05:25] <nixternal> in my debian/postinst file I had it symlink to firefox-index.html which is what ubuntu-docs package uses. So you can't symlink like that in the same directory
[05:25] <nixternal> so just by changing the name, it will create a new symlink and fix the issue
[05:26] <nixternal> I am building it now and will install it shortly to test
[05:26] <nixternal> Admiral_Chicago: you have that issue as well you said?
[05:26] <nixternal> if you do, I want you to test my package and see if it fixes the issue
[05:27] <Admiral_Chicago> nixternal: can do
[05:27] <Admiral_Chicago> nixternal: there is another bug, Fx opens its own splash screen and about kubuntu page.
[05:28] <nixternal> link me
[05:28] <nixternal> ahh
[05:28] <Admiral_Chicago> which is a bug on the Mozilla Team end, we are fixing it tomorrow
[05:28] <nixternal> ya, nothing on my part
[05:28] <nixternal> why tomorrow?
[05:28] <Admiral_Chicago> i thought you were talking about that one
[05:28] <nixternal> you do realise the freeze is on this week due to beta release
[05:28] <Admiral_Chicago> our packager is asleep
[05:28] <nixternal> jeesh, you need more packagers then
[05:29] <nixternal> although mozilla packagers tend to be picky
[05:29] <Admiral_Chicago> i saw the bug in the Mac Store today
[05:29] <Admiral_Chicago> a guy looked at me like I was crazy because I had Gmail and bug reports for 50 straight emails
[05:30] <Admiral_Chicago> on a massive monitor
[05:30] <Admiral_Chicago> either way, that bug is being taken care of by the end of tosay
[05:30] <Admiral_Chicago> today*
[05:31] <nixternal> heh, LP has my name pasted all over the kubuntu-docs now
[05:32] <Admiral_Chicago> yea, I keep getting kubuntu doc emails and more KDE related stuff
[05:33] <Admiral_Chicago> LP has a smart tracker that beings to notify you of stuff you work on right?
[05:36] <nixternal> so it seems
[05:38] <nixternal> argh, forgot to rename it in the rules file as well
[05:45] <nixternal> I hate debian/postinst
[05:53] <Admiral_Chicago> nixternal: did you update it already
[05:53] <Admiral_Chicago> apt is showing me an update...
[05:53] <nixternal> not yet, postinst is being a pig. /etc/alternatives can be a pain
[05:54] <nixternal> LaserJock: you have anyways to tweak postinst so I can get it to actually change the darn the link in /etc/alternatives?
[05:54] <Admiral_Chicago> okay, what version am I using then...
[05:54] <nixternal> I have tried changing the priority up, and it didn't work
[05:55] <Admiral_Chicago> its showing me Candidate: 7.04-2
[05:56] <nixternal> that is the latest
[05:56] <Admiral_Chicago> that is broken.
[05:56] <nixternal> I am working on 7.04-3
[05:56] <Admiral_Chicago> the one you are working on -3 will fix this dependency issue and install
[05:57] <nixternal> actually, my current 7.04-3 package may work for you, but it doesn't for me just yet
[05:57] <nixternal> actually it won't work for you either
[05:57] <Admiral_Chicago> haha, upload it to your server whenever and ping me about ti
[05:57] <Admiral_Chicago> it*
[05:57] <nixternal> roger
[05:58] <LaserJock> nixternal: what do you mean?
[05:58] <nixternal> LaserJock: well it seems that update-alternatives is set to manual mode
[05:58] <nixternal> that is killing me
[05:58] <LaserJock> hm?
[05:59] <nixternal> if update-alternatives was set to --auto, then it would grab the highest priority item
[06:00] <LaserJock> the current update-alternatives line doesn't work?
[06:00] <nixternal> LaserJock: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10139/
[06:00] <nixternal> no it doesn't work
[06:01] <nixternal> it doesn't change the link in /etc/alternatives
[06:01] <nixternal> but update-alternatives --display firefox-homepage shows the kfirefox-index.html and labeled "best" but it doesn't select it due to the manual update-alternatives setting used
[06:02] <LaserJock> I have a priority of 41 here
[06:03] <LaserJock> I'll brb
[06:45] <nixternal> LaserJock: is it OK to use --set with postinst for update-alternatives?
[06:47] <LaserJock> I don't really know
[06:48] <LaserJock> but I don't see why you can't use the previous postinst
[06:49] <nixternal> LaserJock: I can, but it breaks the link from /etc/alternatives because it will not *automatically* use the link provided in postinst
[06:49] <nixternal> let me grab another package and see how the postinst is configured
[08:57] <mdke> morning
[09:11] <Madpilot> morning mdke
[09:11] <mdke> hi Madpilot, how goes it?
[09:12] <Madpilot> good - middle of the work-week for me.
[09:12] <mdke> ah
[09:12] <Madpilot> I'm also trying to study, and keep allowing myself to be distracted by IRC ;)
[09:12] <mdke> quite right
[09:13] <Madpilot> heh. some of the docs I need I can only get online, and online is not a good place for sustained concentration
[09:14] <mdke> what are you studying?
[09:19] <Madpilot> for the Commercial Pilot Lic. written test, which is a monster
[09:20] <mdke> ah right
[09:20] <mdke> good luck with that
[09:20] <Madpilot> thanks. I'm far readier for the CPL Flight Test than I am for the written - but I  have to have the written passed before I can do the flight test...
[09:21] <mdke> damn rules
[09:22] <Madpilot> ya. The worst thing about that written-before-flighttest rule is that it's new as of last summer - if I'd done my CPL a year or two ago it would be someone else's problem, not mine...
[09:22] <Madpilot> the perils of procrastination
[09:23] <mdke> :)
[10:08] <mdke> nixternal: I've asked carlos to sort out the translations for kubuntu-docs, it requires some manual touches.
[10:08] <mdke> -> work
[01:03] <AndrewB> Is there any way to show on my user wiki, all the other wiki's I have contributed on? FullSearch works, but not for help.ubuntu  any way of doing so?
[02:38] <nixternal> mdke: rock on. Just let me know the manual work. Right now I need to fix this one bug (conflict between kubuntu ff startpage and ubuntu ff startpage)

[07:54] <bodhi_zazen> quick question ~ if one wanted to add screen shots to a wiki page, is there a central repository on your server or link from external ?
[07:56] <Burgwork> bodhi_zazen: upload them to the wiki page itself
[07:56] <Burgwork> under the drop down menu, choose add attachments
[07:56] <bodhi_zazen> thanks
[08:21] <Burgwork> bodhi_zazen: did you get it?
