Jucatonope. I don't think so09:17
Jucatoanyway, what do you mean by "hide toolbar" is the only thing active during a download?09:18
Jucatoif you could reproduce steps. would be nice for trying to check this bug :)09:18
DaSkreechselect random app that takes more then 4 seconds to download -> select request install -> click on Apply changes -> open view menu -> obsserve that you can't do much but watch the download happen -> go watch heroes -> wait two days and randomly bring it up in a dev channel -> wait for request to confirm bug -> paste this handy dandy line09:20

HobbseeRiddell: you here?12:13
HobbseeRiddell: if i want to create a kubuntu-restricted-extras package, like the current ubuntu one, and have deps like libk3b2-mp3 in there - is it better to use shlibdeps stuff (ie, libk3b-dev as a build dep), or just hardcode the particular library in those files?  it seems to be using a similar thing to seeds12:14
Hobbsee(or should i ask mvo?)12:14
Riddellhmm, never seen that ubuntu one12:16
Riddellyeah, go for it, look at the ubuntu source to see how that's done12:17

hungerChanging the DisplaySize in xorg.conf does change the font sizes in kdm, but not in my KDE session. Is there anything in the user setup that can influence the DPI?01:38

HobbseeRiddell: ping?05:14
HobbseeRiddell: what are your thoughts on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/119467?05:15
ubotuLaunchpad bug 119467 in kubuntu-meta "make non-essential packages Recommends and not Depends" [Undecided,Unconfirmed] 05:15
RiddellHobbsee: the general policy is that any package which can be removed and you can still sanely call the result a "kubuntu desktop" should be recommends05:19
HobbseeRiddell: right.  have you got any problems with any of those packages being moved to recommends?05:19
Riddellwhether e.g. amarok should be in there is unclear05:19
Hobbseeand the other question is the technical one - how to change it?05:19
Hobbseewlel, a base kde desktop, i would expect, would be part of kubuntu-desktkop05:19
Hobbseewithout the extra, cool, kde apps05:19
Riddellseems to me it wouldn't be kubuntu without amarok05:19
Riddellyou put brackets around the name in the seeds05:19
Riddellstrigi should be recommends certainly05:19
HobbseeRiddell: true that.  it's the case of people who compile it from svn or whatever05:19
HobbseeRiddell: ie, how much of a base kubuntu do you need, and which components cant you remove05:19
Hobbseenot "what's the best desktop experience?"05:19

Tonio_fdoving: simply :07:04
Tonio_zip files don't have the filename encoding in it07:04
mhbTonio_: here07:04
Tonio_the zip binary by defaults encodes file names using latin-107:04
Tonio_that's a zip format limitation07:04
Tonio_the point is that when you want to display a zip file content with ark07:05
Tonio_it considers everything is utf-807:05
Tonio_the idea would be to convert the filename string from latin1 to the system charset, utf-8 for ubuntu07:07
Tonio_and display this07:07
Tonio_that'll fix a 4 year old bug07:07
Tonio_the point is that I can't seem to find a class to convert a string charset.... all I know is iconv07:07
