Let's all use /usr/bin/python2.4 in our postinsts, and depend on python. [09:33] heh [09:33] so what's Confirmed supposed to be now? [09:33] Whatever Triaged isn't. [09:33] heh, ok [09:34] But nobody uses Triaged, because nobody's sure what it's for, and it isn't shown by default because somebody screwed up. === Lure [n=lure@ubuntu/member/lure] has joined #ubuntu-motu === LaserJock decides to set a bug as "Triaged" [09:34] that's...bloody. [09:35] crimsun: Um? [09:35] (I couldn't think of a word to proceed "bloody", so I just omitted.) [09:35] Even so: Um? [09:35] what's the use of Triaged if nobody's sure what it's for? [09:36] because we're "supposed" to know what it's for [09:36] our great bug overlords will enlighten us [09:36] wait, aren't you our liaison to LP? [09:36] this is what we call working with the community [09:36] "Triaged will mean that a bug has all the information attached to it that a developer needs to fix it. The 'confirmed' state was previously used for this purpose, but many users were 'confirming' bugs when observed by a second person." [09:36] ajmitch: Yep, they're really neat like that. [09:37] It's also neat how they notify their userbase of these changes. [09:37] crimsun: ssssshhh, don't bring that up [09:37] -devel-discuss was the only place notified prior to the change... Not even launchpad-users. [09:38] well, I tell yeah. I was pretty "surprised" and not necessarily in a good way [09:38] I'm the MOTU liason to LP, I was at Sevilla, and talked with kiko and BjornT about status changes [09:38] and I had no idea that they were going to do that [09:38] Fujitsu, please don't fight the dictionary... http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/confirmed [09:39] Apparently they felt that UDS BoFs were enough community discussion. [09:39] I was only aware of a Rejected -> Invalid, Won't Fix [09:39] Fujitsu, maybe there should be a "confirmed" which would indicate that others can replicate and something else that marks that there is enough information for devs. [09:39] DarkMageZ: I think that's what it's meant to mean now. [09:40] oh, misread :P [09:41] Anyway, I hope the LP people have realised that a lot of people are most displeased at the lack of notification or discussion with the userbase. With any luck it'll improve in future. [09:42] well, I keep pushing for more "Tell us *before* it happens" but well, I haven't seen a lot of it [09:42] it took forever to get an announcement on launchpad-users [09:43] Revell really needs to get on top of those, IMO [09:43] They probably thought it'd be a nice surprise for all their project maintainers to have any external tools broken and statuses renamed without notice. [09:43] That is mrevell's job, isn't it? [09:44] yes [09:45] well, I'm sure it's not easy. Hopefully there was enough frustration with this status thing to get things changed a bit [09:46] perhaps new.launchpad.net will help [09:46] although if they can't say anything until it's been release then that's an issue === ajmitch tries the rsync magic [09:49] The new release structure means they do know what's going to appear each month some weeks beforehand. [09:49] ajmitch: What're you rsyncing? [09:49] bugs.d.o [09:49] So I suspected. [09:49] first run for awhile [09:50] Might take a little while. [09:50] LP' [09:50] 524038 files to consider [09:50] *LP's growing Debian bug imports in 1.1.7, I believe. [09:50] Ouch. [09:50] it'll only have to rsync a fraction of that [09:51] It'd be nice if Malone also imported some kind of priority information. [09:51] some new indexes though [09:51] s/priority/importance/ [09:51] indices! [09:51] it'd be nice if malone got some version tracking & bug dependencies, too [09:51] Yeah, but that's asking a bit much. [09:51] both forms of the plural are acceptable [09:51] They're doing really useful stuff like making pie charts of bugs! Wooohooo! [09:52] Really useful. [09:52] bug dependencies are being worked on [09:52] yay! [09:53] LaserJock: :O Really? [09:53] I don't know how much, but I've seen something [09:53] I talked with bjorn about versions at UDS, I don't think he was convinced though === allee [n=ach@dialin-145-254-254-010.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:53] He needs to be convinced, then. [09:53] it's only a fairly recent feature in debbugs [09:53] what do you mean? [09:53] ajmitch: Right, but it grew that feature, so it must be useful. [09:54] LaserJock: it's what I'm using for this rc bugs list - a bug is found in package version X, fixed in version Y [09:54] Is anyone free to review the zeroinstall-injector package? I uploaded 0.28 a while back, but it didn't get any comments. Then 0.29 came out and I uploaded a package for that: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5670 [09:55] ajmitch: ah, yeah === Nightrose [n=lydia@port-87-234-150-228.dynamic.qsc.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:55] apport is going to be maintaining its own version database. That's just stupid. [09:55] Using debbugs and malone are two completely different experiences for me === davromaniak [n=cyril@LAubervilliers-153-52-16-160.w217-128.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:57] Malone is good at some things, but it lacks some features (like dependencies and versioning) that makes debbugs useful. [09:58] And the lack of priorities on Debian bug imports will limit the usefulness. [09:59] well, I can't remember what the rationale for not doing versions was [09:59] Probably it'd make the UI too complicated, or something like that. [09:59] but knowing what version we fix something in is very useful [09:59] probably that a package version was distro-specific [10:00] so you'd need to match distro/version, and it'd complicate things with bug tasks on multiple distros [10:00] We're going to need that feature eventually. === ajmitch shrugs [10:01] well, tbh, I just don't know how having multiple distros on the same bug tracker is really ever going to work very well [10:02] Especially because LP is closed and controlled by a company with an obvious interest in one particular distro. Other distros would have to be crazy to use it. === coNP [n=conp@unaffiliated/conp] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:04] well, a number of derivs already are [10:05] which causes oddities [10:05] They're derivatives, though. Not distinct distros as such. [10:05] Like what? [10:05] like baltix tasks everywhere [10:05] Oh, yes. [10:06] That gets irritating. [10:06] and sometimes they sort of "bump" into each other [10:06] The upstream linking is a good idea. === neversfelde|mobi [n=neversfe@82.113.121.1] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:09] blah, 1am [10:09] time for me to go bed [10:09] Night. [10:10] finally got the stupid printer to work [10:10] had to use a generic color laserjet driver for my PSC [10:10] My PSC1210 works fine. [10:13] in Windows? [10:13] Ahh, I've never tried it there. [10:14] Probably because the drivers are like 200MB.. [10:14] yeah, well I found the driver for it [10:14] but it *only* works with local printers [10:15] anyway, night all === LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:16] Another thing I'd like to see in LP is importing of Debian info for the Overview tab (as the bugs are coming soon), rather than having to head over to p.q.d.o or b.d.o === RAOF [n=chris@123-243-65-41.tpgi.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu === Sindwiller [n=sindwill@84-75-101-114.dclient.hispeed.ch] has joined #ubuntu-MOTU [10:19] Hi. I'm looking for someone to review my package: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5670 It's just a new upstream release; shouldn't be any problems. [10:23] I just uploaded it. [10:24] Thanks! === Fujitsu thinks gnome-power-manager should give some warning (other than `You have 20 minutes remaining!') before shutting the system down. [10:31] Fujitsu, it should do this [10:32] it should send message also when battery is critically low [10:32] I left it for 30 seconds no more than 2 or 3 minutes after it gave me that warning, and came back to find the system half shutdown. [10:32] Granted, my battery does only give 1.5 hours. === RAOF things g-p-m should stop counting time-while-suspended in it's battery discharge profile.

[10:40] sure, if you tell it to ignore time remaining and use the percentages [10:40] I haven't actually *seen* that option, so I don't think I've changed it from default :) === hjmf [n=hjmf@81.Red-217-125-221.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === phanatic [n=phanatic@ubuntu/member/phanatic] has joined #ubuntu-motu === nrpil [n=nrpil@s5591f679.adsl.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu === Lure [n=lure@89-212-19-55.dynamic.dsl.t-2.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === MagnusR [n=magru@c83-252-237-96.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu === Q-FUNK [n=q-funk@dsl-hkibras1-ff55c300-121.dhcp.inet.fi] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:12] Just another ping about bug #121476.

[01:53] well that's the plan [01:53] but [01:54] hmmm [01:54] the makefile complicates the issue I think [01:54] Which makefile?

[01:58] to deal with different versions of python [01:58] so it gets put in the right site-packages folder [01:58] But you're not building extension modules at all, and python-support should do the site-packages for you, no? [01:59] ok [01:59] but if someone has py2.4 or 2.5 [01:59] how do we know where to install it? [01:59] You don't, that's the whole point of python-support. [01:59] hmmm [02:00] oh [02:00] python-support bytecompiles your modules into every appropriate site-packages location. [02:00] ogra, showed me this way of doing it [02:00] so [02:00] where should they be installed? [02:00] if I was to use .install fils [02:01] man dh_pysupport is probably what you're after. [02:01] ok [02:01] gtg [02:01] So, everything goes into /usr/share/python-support [02:01] right [02:01] thanks RAOF [02:01] NP :) [02:01] looking forward to working with you [02:01] You too. [02:06] how can I do to "force" a version of GCC for a package ?? === jrib [n=jrib@upstream/dev/jrib] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:07] Add it in the build-depends? [02:07] I presume you mean something like gcc 3.4, gcc 4.2, etc? Not simply a specific pakcage version of the default gcc? [02:09] davromaniak: And then you need to teach the buildsystem to use the specific gcc. You can probably do that by setting the CC variable to what you want (CC=gcc-3.4 , for example), but that depends on the actual build system your package source has. [02:09] ok [02:10] I am testing it, thx === tru_`z24 [n=truz_`24@74-129-166-232.dhcp.insightbb.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:32] if in my sw.orig.tar there is a lot of .svn dir, the right way is delete this in rules right? [02:33] Bad upstream, no biscuit. [02:34] You might want to just repack the tarball, no? [02:35] the source that i can download are these [02:35] In that case you can take the .tar.gz from them, remove the .svn dir, then repack it and put a line like "Removed all .svn from original .tar.gz + repacked" in the changelog [02:35] at least that's how I recently did with a .tar.gz from upstream containing .git dirs [02:36] ok, thanks [02:36] i am asking here because i read in all documentation "you can't modify orig.tar.gz" [02:37] well, if you want to modify the source code or things like that you have to use patches, but removing repository dirs or existing debian/ dirs are ok as soon as you say so in the changelog [02:37] ok, thanks a lot === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pricechild] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:44] and if i have a foo.tar.gz, if i extract that i have foo-3.3 but software and package in named bar, i must rename the dir and the tar.gz? === deep [n=deep@c-9f2a71d5.017-19-626c671.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu === luisbg [n=d33p@26.144.217.87.dynamic.jazztel.es] has joined #ubuntu-motu === DktrKranz [n=Luca@ubuntu/member/dktrkranz] has joined #ubuntu-motu === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pricechild] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:50] jekil: Is upstream really that confused?

[02:52] I've never had to deal with that, so I'm not sure. [02:54] the ubuntu packaging guide says to never modify the content of a .tar.gz unless absolutally nessesary. i don't think the change in this case is an exception.

[05:52] RainCT: they are created during the build process, and shouldn't be shipped in the orig tarball. upstream tarball ships them, and the debian maintainer probably removed them [05:52] persia : yes [05:52] jerome_: OK. It should take 10-15 minutes then :) [05:53] persia : thank you [05:53] Adri2000: ok, so the normal sync would have been ok?

[05:59] Adri2000: are new upstream tarballs uploaded automatically to the archive? [06:03] we upload the orig.tar.gz only when it's a new upstream version, when it's just a change to the packaging, we don't. but the size and the md5sum of the orig.tar.gz are written in the .dsc. therefore, even if we do not upload the orig.tar.gz, the upload can be rejected saying "md5sum mismatch of the orig tarball". that what would have happened if an archive admin had tried to process your sync request : the md5sum written in the debian .dsc [06:05] and a fakesync is, basically: get the debian package, replace the debian orig tarball with our orig tarball, recreate the source package so that the .dsc contains the size and the md5sum of our orig tarball [06:05] jerome_: The keys are now synchronised. Please try an upload, and let me know if it doesn't work.

[06:45] what do we do if upstream already has a debian directory but the package still needs packaging for ubuntu (or debian)? [06:45] hi jussi01 [06:46] hiya AndyP [06:46] AndyP: smack upstream? [06:46] :P [06:46] i've tried, no reply :/ [06:47] (where smack == ask them about their intentions wrt debian) [06:47] hehe, nice [06:47] AndyP: Is the upstream debian/ directory useful, or does it contain lots of .ex files, etc.? [06:48] persia: looks quite clean at first glance [06:50] AndyP: In that case, I'd recommend just modifying the files as you need for your packaging purposes (aligning with upstream regarding debhelper vs. CDBS, etc. is often also a good idea), and adding a debian/README.Debian-source reporting that upstream ships a debian/ directory, and you have modified is considerably. [06:51] persia: ok will do, thanks === _MMA1 [n=mma@cpe-071-070-203-016.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:52] AndyP: The most important things are usually to wipe debian/changelog (upstreams often have several versions, none of which were ever released), triple-check debian/copyright (upstreams rarely have much experience with this), and to carefully review debian/control to make sure that the package is broken correctly (-data for large usr/share, libfoo / libfoo-dev for libraries, etc.). [06:52] persia: question: do I listen to you or ScottK? :D (take a glance at mnemosyne on revu if you dont know what im on about) [06:52] s/broken/split/ [06:53] jussi01: About python, ScottK is 99% more likely to be right, but I'll take a look now to see what you mean. [06:53] persia: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5626 [06:54] if it helps [06:55] persia: ok, noted [06:58] jussi01: Ah. In this case, we're both correct. If mnemosyne is to be a new replacement for memaid, I'm correct. If it is intended to be a parallel install, ScottK is correct. I'd recommend contacting both upstreams and the Debian memaid maintainer to get input on whether memaid is still a useful package and maintained as open-source. If it is, the you probably want a parallel installation, so follow ScottK's advice. If not, and the packages === persia dislikes buffers [06:58] If it is, the you probably want a parallel installation, so follow ScottK's advice. If not, and the packages are broadly the same (likely, with that much code similarity), and the Debian maintainer agrees, replacement is probably a good idea. If you're still unsure after investigating, send a mail to ubuntu-motu@l.u.c asking for more opinions and including the results of your research. === Neonightmare [n=neonight@153.122.62.81.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jekil2 [n=alessand@151.82.4.100] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:59] persia: ok. Thank you. [06:59] Personally, I think a replacement seems right, but coordinating with Debian for this is best (and I don't use memaid, so my opinion isn't very strong). === Neonightmare [n=neonight@153.122.62.81.cust.bluewin.ch] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [07:02] jussi01: Where you would HAVE to replace it is if you installed files with the same names in the same places. [07:02] hmmmm, just reading the memaid site, and its no longer maintained.... [07:02] http://memaid.sourceforge.net/ [07:03] jussi01: Imagine you're a memaid user who wants to try out mnemosyne. How happy would you be if installing the new program removed the old one. [07:04] aha...good point... [07:04] jussi01: That's why I think a transition is good, but Scott raises a good point: specifically that having packages in only in Ubuntu that conflict with a Debian package can lead to confusion. === jussi01 cries... [07:05] ScottK: I think this case is like gaim -> pidgin: the name changed, but the code (and API) are nearly the same. Couldn't this be addressed with some maintainer scripts to process any affected configuration files (and appropriate notes in debian/control)? [07:05] (assuming it is well coordinated with Debian) [07:05] persia: I think it's not. I think it's more like Seamonkey/Firefox. === freeflying [n=freeflyi@123.116.102.157] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:06] You've got essentially a new program that provides the same function as the old one, but with a substantially different code base. [07:07] persia: In this case I think the user base is likely small enough that it's safe just to let it install in parallel and not sweat it. [07:07] ScottK: No so substantially different. The APIs are the same, and a large number of files distributed in memaid are earlier versions (by the mnemosyne author) of the files in mnemosyne. === zul_ [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:07] Right, but we install them (I think) in different locations so there is no actual conflict. [07:08] ScottK: In general, I prefer to dispose of older packages that are no longer maintained upstream, if there is a current open codebase for essentially the same thing. === jussi01 is learning lots, its good! :D === CarlF1 [n=carl@adsl-75-57-182-186.dsl.emhril.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:08] ScottK: That's true. Perhaps a transition release? Both for gutsy, and move to only mnemosyne for gutsy+1? The issue here is that nobody is fixing bugs in memaid (except, maybe, the Debian maintainer). [07:08] persia: I agree. I think the right thing to do here is let them install in parallel and then at some point in the future file a removal request for memaid (that would be when I'd make mnemosyne replace memaid). [07:09] Right. [07:09] jussi01: Please listed to ScottK, specifically, the latest comment. This is the correct way to do it :) === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pricechild] has joined #ubuntu-motu === pochu [n=emilio@14.Red-83-63-199.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:09] It shouldn't be that hard for jussi01 to get his package into Debian either. [07:10] jussi01: Also, do coordinate with Debian, as it would be of great benefit to Ubuntu if Debian also was transitioning this package. [07:10] persia: ok, thank you both for your time === jekil2 is now known as jekil [07:10] jussi01: Once we get your package into Ubuntu, I'll help you get it into Debian (I'm not a DD, but have gotten through the process). [07:11] ScottK: excellent! thanks a lot. [07:12] ok, Im heading out to the shop. Thank you ScottK and persia. [07:12] Ah. memaid is maintained by Debian QA: they would probably be happy to drop the package, with a reasonable replacement. [07:13] Yes. [07:14] persia: should i mention all of my changes to the upstream debian/* files or would "* Packaged for Ubuntu based on upstream's debian dir (Fixes LP #120213)" be sufficient? [07:14] Launchpad bug 120213 in Ubuntu "[needs-packaging] gmusicbrowser missing in repositories" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/120213 === deep` [n=deep@c-9f2a71d5.017-19-626c671.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:16] since it's pretty much the initial packaging, i don't think the detail matters too much really [07:16] AndyP: That's probably sufficient for a start. I'd recommend also adding additional entries if you need to apply any patches, need to make any significant changes to install locations, or need to change how the package is split into multiple binaries (if this applies), etc. This way whoever updates to the next new upstream will have an easier time. [07:17] persia: right, makes sense [07:18] AndyP: I think that minimally it's OK, but that it'd be nice for whoever looks at the package later to be able to at least generally reconstruct what you did and why. [07:18] AndyP: Also, I agree that the details of the specific changes against upstream debian/ are not important: but the details of any of your work beyond the standard generate some files and watch it work are important. [07:18] persia: Are you OK with mnemosyne as is? There's a comment from dholbach that he uploaded it, but I don't see that he actually did. [07:19] ScottK: AndyP has already requested upstream to delete debian/. Do we need to track local changes to this inthe changelog pending upstream removing it (if they are willing)? [07:19] ScottK: It got rejected by the archive admins due to copyright confusion with memaid. The package is fine, but it needs research and documentation to build sufficient case for inclusion in the archive. [07:19] Once you know it's going away, I'd say no, but in the meantime, I think it's good. [07:20] persia: OK. [07:20] ScottK: OK [07:20] So far when I've asked upstream to remove debian dir, they always say no. === Baby [i=miry@pdpc/supporter/silver/kavi/baby] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jikanter [n=jordan@c-24-12-220-77.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:24] ScottK: Odd.

Mostly I just have to swap out debian/changelog. [07:27] ScottK: That's probably why. The ones I've seen needed significant changes (different package split, not using debian/patches for upstream changes, using an upstream Makefile instead of debian/rules, etc.). [07:28] to be fair i've only given the upstream author 4 days to reply so far but i've been looking for an excuse to de-rustify my packaging skills and even if i get it packaged nicely i'll wait a few more days before uploading it to REVU [07:30] AndyP: No need to wait on REVU. If you're expecting a new upstream soon (or hoping for one), please add comment stating that this is not a candidate for upload, just a candidate for review. This way you can collect more comments that might get into the new upstream (copyright seems most common for this). [07:33] persia: ah great, that'll be very useful :) [07:36] guess i should read the debian perl policy now === aanderse [n=aaron@CPE0015e916db19-CM001225d7436c.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === mwolson [i=mwolson@jpi-wlafyte-212-116.dmisinetworks.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === _czessi [n=Czessi@dslb-088-073-062-121.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === cypherbios [n=cypher@ubuntu/member/cypherbios] has joined #ubuntu-motu === apachelogger [n=me@193.170.67.43] has joined #ubuntu-motu === ChrisJTortoise [n=tortoise@91.84.37.241] has joined #ubuntu-motu === deep` [n=deep@c-9f2a71d5.017-19-626c671.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu === czessi_ [n=Czessi@dslb-088-073-022-238.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === tuxmaniac [n=tuxmania@unaffiliated/tuxmaniac] has joined #ubuntu-motu === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-motu === luisbg [n=d33p@219.145.217.87.dynamic.jazztel.es] has joined #ubuntu-motu === superm1_ [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-motu === twanj [n=chatzill@c-75-74-146-27.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === zul_ [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === tsmithe [n=toby@ubuntu/member/tsmithe] has joined #ubuntu-motu === beuno_ [i=martin@conference/debconf/x-da4edd0400c61368] has joined #ubuntu-motu === micahcowan [n=micah@ubuntu/member/micahcowan] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:40] this package is currently installing a png and using it as the menu icon but lintian says it should be an xpm - should i convert it and put the xpm in the debian dir or is there some small png->xpm tool i could build-depend on and use during the build? [08:41] AndyP: It's best to convert during the packaging, and then install both .xpm and .png. The conversion tool you want is `convert` from imagemagick.

[11:23] i don't... i just wanted to ask them to remove it, and ask them if they were going to submit it to debian or ubuntu themselves [11:24] i'd prefer to cooperate with people than step on their toes :) (plus it'd be less work for me if they did it themselves ;) === reggaemanu_ [n=manu@ARennes-257-1-104-237.w81-48.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-motu === calc [n=ccheney@conr-adsl-209-169-124-200.consolidated.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === AndyP disappears for dinner [11:30] tsmithe: RE: -sounds: we distribute the Artistic under /usr/share/common-licenses/ as well.

[11:38] yep [11:39] what I do is enable "Apply" ("Close" in the -gtk case, it seems) only upon activation, and then clicking Apply invokes the writeConf() method, which will then disable the Apply pushbutton upon writeConf()'s success [11:40] yes, but i want it to be always closable with that button, and i'd like to ensure that the changes are applied when that button is pressed [11:40] in case something funky happened with the combobox change [11:40] right, so your Close likely needs a hook === somerville32 [n=cody-som@ubuntu/member/somerville32] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:41] I skirt the issue completely by removing "Close" and having the user use the window manager's Close [11:42] it's not very good UI, but I'm not sure if KDE apps normally have a Quit PushButton, too [11:42] heh, i think it's nice having a tabbable button, rather than pressing alt-f4, or having to move the mouse up to the corner ;) [11:43] if it turns out that KDE apps do have Quit, then I'll just rewire the logic [11:44] heh - it's not like it's particularly tricky :) [11:44] it's better UI, anyhow, but I don't want to kill consistency [11:44] good point [11:46] AndyP, Are you sure you should be changing upstream's changelog?
