bddebianGah, who the hell keeps marking all these bugs as Fix Comitted when they aren't..05:04
RAOFbddebian: Any in particular?  Tracker seems to be a mass of "fix comitted, because it's fixed in SVN" bugs.05:05
pwnguincommitted isnt released05:05
bddebianThe fixes are not committed if it's not in the repos afai am concerned05:05
pwnguinbut id always figured it meant fix uploaded05:05
bddebianRight05:06
pwnguinrepos?05:06
pwnguinif its apt-gettable its released05:06
RAOFYes, that's my understanign of what it means too.05:06
bddebianUbuntu repositories.  If its in svn but not Ubuntu it ain't fix committed to me05:06
TheMusoIMO fix released means built successfully, but it seems others think otherwise, i.e when using a bug number in a changelog.05:06
bddebianWell that's a whole different issue :-)05:07
TheMusocauses a bug to have a fix released change.05:07
bddebianOMFG I give up05:09
RAOFbddebian: if it's any consolation, I don't think anyone likes that fix comitted meaning.05:09
=== cprov [n=cprov@canonical/launchpad/cprov] has joined #ubuntu-motu
bddebianIt was fine when it meant it was uploaded to Ubuntu.  I don't know who keeps moving the meanings of everything anymore05:10
RAOFAFAIK, that usage is actively incorrect, and it doesn't mean what the changer thinks it means.05:12
pwnguini thought lp autoupdated that stuff05:12
RAOFLike "inconcievable"05:12
pwnguinwhat?05:12

StevenKRAOF: :-)05:15
AmaranthRAOF: did laserjock ask you for an interview right after you joined too?05:16
RAOFAmaranth: No, he hasn't.  Not yet, at least.05:16
=== RAOF considers filling bigon's RFP for libgnome-keyring-cil
AmaranthRAOF: huh05:16
RAOFAmaranth: You're just special.05:16
=== ajmitch hasn't been asked
AmaranthNow that is surprising05:16
RAOFAmaranth: Possibly as the person most likely to be thought to be already a MOTU.05:17
=== TheMuso hasn't been asked either.
=== TheMuso remembers when he fronted the tech board to become a MOTU, and Amaranth thought I was already a MOTU.
RAOF.au & .nz just aren't interesting, apparently.05:18
AmaranthTheMuso: Hey, that reminds me, you're an a11y guy, right?05:18
=== bddebian shouldn't be one
RAOFbddebian: Shush!05:18
TheMusoAmaranth: Yes indeed. If I am not mistaken, you dropped into #orca on gimpnet the other day did you not?05:19
AmaranthTheMuso: I did05:20
AmaranthTheMuso: I need to make compiz talk05:20
TheMusoAmaranth: As in the window manager part of things?05:20
AmaranthTheMuso: apparently just using pango is not enough and i really don't want to subclass atk05:21
TheMusoAmaranth: The only thing I can suggest is to see how metacity does it.05:21
AmaranthTheMuso: alt-tab and such05:21
AmaranthTheMuso: I think they use a GtkLabel05:21
TheMusoAmaranth: Well unfortunately I am not entirely up on how the infrastructure works within GNOME.05:21
TheMusoI am more an integration/end-user perspecitve person at this point.05:21
AmaranthWe use pango, snag the cairo context from pango, render it into a texture, and paint that on the screen05:21
AmaranthTheMuso: does orca crash and take the app it's speaking with it on gutsy for you too? :)05:22
Amaranthwell, not crash, freeze05:22
TheMusoAmaranth: Occasionally, yes. This is with metacity.05:22
AmaranthDoes it every 5-15 minutes here05:22
Amaranthkilling orca unfreezes the app05:23
TheMusoYep, same here.05:23
TheMusoI don't think it happens that often for me, but it does happen.05:23
TheMusoUsually close to the beginning of my session. Once its been started another time, it doesn't usually happen till I next log out/in.05:24
TheMusoAnd today at least, its only been once, and that was early this morning. My session has been running for almost 5 hours now.05:24
StevenKYay, Amaranth might fix my bug05:25
Amaranthit's funny, everyone always complains about metacity's code05:25
TheMusoAmaranth: Is it a metacity problem?05:25
Amaranthno no05:25
Amaranthi just like reading metacity's code05:25
Amaranthwell, the recent additions to it, anyway05:25
TheMusoright05:26
TheMusoI've never tried compiz + orca actually.05:26
Amaranththe core window management stuff is a mess, the alt-tab popup, window placement algorithm, edge detection, etc code is all very nice and easy to follow05:26
TheMusoThe window titles/alt tab doesn't speak more than likely however.05:26
AmaranthTheMuso: window titles are fine, that's libmetacity05:26
TheMusoAmaranth: Right.05:26
=== Knightlust [n=dax@ubuntu/member/knightlust] has joined #ubuntu-motu
TheMusoAmaranth: As it is, it would be nice to actually get this fixed at some point, as Orca may end up using the new ezoom plugin that was done as a soc project.05:27
TheMusoat some point in the future.05:27
TheMusofor magnification.05:27
Amaranthright metacity uses a GtkLabel and pulls the Atk context out of it to do further tweaking05:28
=== Amaranth cries
=== StevenK kills Kmos.
Amaranthi wonder if i can fake it05:28
Amaranthput a GtkLabel somewhere invisible05:28
ajmitchStevenK: why would you do that?05:31
StevenKAmaranth: Does compiz already link against libgtk? Because adding a GtkLabel would make you grow one.05:31
TheMusoAmaranth: I gather that thats a bad way to code it?05:31
AmaranthStevenK: gtk-window-decorator draws the switcher05:31
TheMusoAmaranth: as in what you said about what metacity does05:31
AmaranthTheMuso: indeed05:31
StevenKajmitch: We are just about to release beta, and he privately mailed me asking me to put the RC of gimp in.05:32
ajmitchah, why would he mail you?05:32
StevenKAmaranth: Ah, that's alright then.05:32
ajmitchthat's just a bit mad05:32
StevenKajmitch: Because I did the upload of rc105:32
TheMusoAmaranth: fun.05:32
ajmitchhe was promising someone in here earlier that the final release of the gimp would make it into gutsy05:33
Amaranthuh, ha?05:33
bddebianHeh05:33
StevenKReally?05:33
ajmitch08:40 < so1> will gimp stay at rc2 or will it be updated when the final will be released?05:33
StevenKThat's very interesting, because I don't think it will.05:33
TheMusoI think kmos has ruffled the feathers of all who are present. :)05:33
ajmitch08:53 < Kmos> so1: it will be updated05:33
ajmitch08:54 < Kmos> until gutsy final version05:33
ajmitch08:54 < Kmos> i'm pretty sure =)05:33
ajmitchTheMuso: nah, he couldn't do that :)05:34
ajmitch09:08 < ScottK> so1: Just in case you can't tell, Kmos really has no idea if it'll be updated or not.  Neither do I.05:34
TheMusoajmitch: Oh I forgot, of course he couldn't. He reads all docs and processes, and follows the rules. :)05:34
=== StevenK will ask seb128 about rc3 when he surfaces.
ajmitchheh05:35
ScottKRuffled feathers is a VERY mild way of putting it.05:36
Amaranthcan probably get another release of gimp in, along with the general desktop exception for 2.20.105:37
Amaranthbut if the final isn't out when gnome 2.20.1 is...05:38
StevenKAmaranth: That's what I'm guessing - I'm happy to jump to rc3 if seb128 is okay with it05:38
ScottKSpeaking of GIMP, I'd like a 2nd opinion on if I was correct to attribute this bug to gimp-python?05:45

TheMusoScottK: You might want to take a look at codespeak-lib on the rc bugs list. The Debian bug is resolved by commenting out a command that seems to work on i386, but not on ppc, and the builds reflect that for the Ubuntu version. I'm wondering if the issue can be fixed a better way...06:12
TheMusoI could apply the fix from Debian, but it doesn't seem logical to me, commenting out something that clearly includes useful material in the package.06:12
ScottKCan you make the call arch specific?06:18
TheMusoScottK: Yes, I was thinking of that, but thought a better solution may be possible, and since as far as I know, you are good with python, I'd thought I would ask you.06:23
ScottKTheMuso: I didn't realize it was python from the name.06:24
RAOFIs there any *particular* reason we have a clearlooks-engine package, last touched in hoary, in Universe?06:24
ScottKNo one cared enough to write the removal bug?06:25
TheMusoScottK: Yeah it creates a python- binary package name.06:25
ScottKIs it hurting anything?06:25
ScottKTheMuso: Is codespeak-lib the source package name then?06:25
RAOFScottK: Not really, as far as I can tell.06:25
bddebianGnight folks06:27
AmaranthRAOF: I can't find that06:27
RAOFAmaranth: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clearlooks-engine/06:28
AmaranthRAOF: apparently it doesn't (never) built?06:29
TheMusoScottK: yes06:29
RAOFAmaranth: No, builds successfully on all but lpia according to LP06:29
AmaranthRAOF: but the binary was overrided by the gtk2-engines source package06:31
RAOFYes.06:31
Amaranthso there is no binary package for clearlooks-engine in Ubuntu06:31
AmaranthNo wonder no one noticed it :P06:31
ScottKSounds like a good candidate for removal then.06:32
ScottKTheMuso: I'll have a look in a minute.06:32
RAOFYeah.  Filing the removal bug now.06:33
RAOFIn fact, it's doubly obsolete; there was a clearlooks package, too, that got removed in dapper.06:34
Amaranthwow06:35
TheMusoScottK: No hurry, but I thought you may be able to work out a better solution.06:35
ScottKIt's after midnight here.  I'll look at it tonight if I get this package I'm working on done before I run out of steam.  Otherwise I'll probably forget.06:36

=== TheMuso moves on.

ScottKhe says to himself idly ...06:56
=== RAOF thinks that's cool.
TheMusoIs it just me, or is the rc bugs list not showing comments fields for all packages?06:58

=== Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKHobbsee: If you are wanting to raise your blood pressure you might grep through LongPointyStick's logs and see what fun Kmos has been up to while you were away.07:42
ScottKGood afternoon too Hobbsee.07:43
=== ScottK found out long enough ago that he can probably sleep.
HobbseeScottK: urgh.07:43
HobbseeScottK: what's he done?07:43
=== Hobbsee notes that the sponsorship queue hasnt exploded.
ScottKNo, the problem isn't volume this time07:44
ScottKJust promising people that the final GIMP would make Gutsy and then emailing StevenK to ask him to make sure it did.07:44
Hobbseeoh yay...07:44
ScottKThe only progress I'm noticing is the reduction in volume.  I'm still not detecting and increased (or extant) clue factor.07:45
dholbachhe shouldn't have promised it, but the release team should at least review the upgrade to rc307:45
Hobbseedholbach: i'm sure we will, but him peskering about will only make it slower, not quicker07:45
ScottKdholbach: Agreed, but he's raising people's expectation on stuff he's no idea about and distracting people from getting work done.07:46
dholbachright07:46
HobbseeScottK: well, then everyone will know that he's on crack.  which may not be bad.07:46
ScottKWell the person in question was someone I don't recall seeing active here before.  He's not the first impression we want to make.07:47
dholbachI'll talk to him07:47
HobbseeScottK: true, but until people like dholbach and jono feel like chucking him out, rather than speaking to him and attempting to make him more clueful, we're stuck with his misinformation.07:47
ScottKRight.  On my list of reasons for spending less time on Ubuntu after Gutsy releases.07:48
dholbachcome on now07:48
StevenKI'm happy to look at rc3, I'd just prefer not to get Kmos mailing me saying "Debian already has it =)"07:48
dholbachhe's not wreaking havoc07:48
dholbachand we had people badger us about new versions of *whatever* before07:48
ScottKdholbach: I think the entire situation with him has been very poorly handled from the perspective of allowing us to get actual work done.07:48
dholbachwhat do you think how many mails seb128 got about the newest pidgin etc?07:49
ScottKdholbach: I don't mean today, I mean in general.07:49
StevenKdholbach: The fact he mailed me isn't the problem - the fact that he told someone that GIMP 2.4 final would be in Gutsy is.07:49
dholbachI'll talk to him07:49
dholbachso you're saying is: remove him from the community, else I'll do less for Ubuntu?07:50
Hobbseedholbach: yes, but it's kmos.07:51
dholbachhow many people that have trouble understanding what we do will we face when MOTU gets more mainstream?07:51
Hobbseedholbach: sorry?07:51
StevenKYeah, parse error07:52
dholbachI have concerns, when it comes to the point that this is 'the kmos problem'07:52
dholbachall I'm saying is: this is not the last time that somebody misunderstands what we do and how we do it07:52
dholbachand removing those people from the community is not what I call the standard way to deal with people07:53
ScottKdholbach: I understand it very clearly which is why I despair that in a case as clear as this abusive/destructive behavior is tolerated.  It's only going to get worse.07:53
minghuaIsn't gimp in main?07:53
ScottKYes07:53
Hobbseeminghua: oh yes.07:53
StevenKdholbach: Of course. But other people tend to listen.07:53
ScottKdholbach: There's a point where it's the only answer.07:53
dholbachwouldn't you agree that things have changed?07:53
ajmitchhey Hobbsee, dholbach07:53
StevenKOr better, *actually ask questions*07:53
Hobbseemy problem with this isnt the fact taht someone's misunderstood.  my problem with this is that the someone has *continually* misunderstood, and seems to be making little to no effort in actually attempting to undersatnd.07:53
Hobbseehi ajmitch07:53
ScottKdholbach: Only the volume.07:53
dholbachI mean I'm not saying that the gimp was the right thing to do07:54
=== Zic [n=Zic@ubuntu/member/zic] has joined #ubuntu-motu
Hobbseedholbach: sure, he's changed. he's ogne from random closing of bugs, to sync floods, to removal floods, to saying things that he has no right to promise.  he keeps changing, but it doesnt seem to be an *improvement*07:54
=== zakame [i=zakame@ubuntu/member/zakame] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ajmitchHobbsee: it wasn't a firm promise, just a 'yes' followed by "I'm pretty sure =)"07:55
ScottKEach time we say don't do X he either does X anyway or picks Y and causes more trouble.07:55
Hobbseeajmitch: right.  i havent looked at the logs yet.07:55
dholbachdo you have the bug number for that?07:55
dholbachI'll talk to him.07:55
ScottKajmitch: He had no way to be pretty sure.07:55
ScottKdholbach: It was here on IRC.07:55
dholbachoh ok07:55
dholbachI'm not saying he did not cause a lot of trouble, but this gimp case is not really worth being outraged about it.07:57
dholbachas I said, I'll talk to him07:57
ScottKdholbach: Remember all the confusion he caused over the ddclient UVFe.  His presence just seems to make everything harder.  How much harder is a function of his activity level.07:57
ajmitchI think it's more of a cumulative thing07:57
ScottKajmitch: Yes.07:57
StevenKAgreed.07:57
ScottKdholbach: He's way past out of 2nd chances in my book.07:57
StevenK6th, 7th ...07:57
dholbachI'll talk to him and propose to him talking me through his changes before he does stuff07:59
ScottKSo, back to my earlier point, the fact that Ubuntu appears to be willing to tolerate an effectively inifinite (I'd imagine there is a limit, but it's undiscovered as of yet) degree of destructive behavior makes it a less fun environement for me to volunteer my time in.07:59

=== buzztracker [n=buzztrac@pelikan.garga.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
dholbachHobbsee: I looked at it and am waiting for an update on it08:01
Hobbseedholbach: in all honesty, if it's a choice between using time to fix processes, and to help out other people, and to get more people into MOTU, with the mentoring, etc, vs going with kmos, and fixing every hairbrained thing that he does...i know which i'd pick.  But really, it's your call - because you'll be the one doing it.  And, of course, you'll be the one answering to Canonical about what's happened, and whether it was a good decision or08:02
Hobbseenot.08:02
pwnguinwho is this kmos person?08:05
dholbachright, if you don't want to deal with him because you've spent a lot of time on his mistakes already, that's perfectly ok08:05
Hobbseedholbach: so you're offering to deal with all his bugs on the sponsorship queue, and fix all the messes he does in here?08:06
ScottKpwnguin: You don't want to know.08:06
Hobbseepwnguin: he's a guy who attempts to "help out" - but has a weird idea of what helping out is08:07
pwnguinwell, i might want to at least know how to avoid him :)08:07
pwnguinheh08:07
pwnguin"he helps all the time. people just misunderstand his help and end up running... or burning... or dying"08:07
dholbachHobbsee: there's nothing in the sponsoring queue of him right now08:07
Hobbseepwnguin: he's gone from random closing of bugs, to sync floods, to removal floods, to saying things that he has no right to promise.08:07
Hobbseedholbach: yes, for good reason.08:07
Hobbseedholbach: he's kept his promise to not sync-flood, at least for the moment08:08
dholbachHobbsee: but yeah, I'll ask him to work with me as a mentor08:08
Hobbseedholbach: OK.  so we'll shunt any bugs to you, presumably?08:08
=== TheMuso feels that kmos hasn't annoyed hi too much.
TheMusoI just deal with whatever he does as it comes.08:08
TheMusoAs much as he is frustratig, I don't let it annoy me.08:09
TheMusofrustrating08:09
dholbachHobbsee: works for me08:09
TheMusoBecause if I do, then I'll get more frustrated, and then it adversly affects my work.08:09
=== dholbach hugs TheMuso
HobbseeTheMuso: unfortunately, at some level, i know i'm the co-head of the sponsorship queue - so i do have to make sure that people are happy with the way it works, and fix it when it doesnt.  i cant just ignore it forever.08:10
HobbseeTheMuso: and even more unfortunately, some of that involves kmos.08:10

dholbachok, I think we've talked about most points now - I'll catch him as soon as I can and keep you informed of how that goes08:11
Hobbseeajmitch: i'm happy to delegate them too - or at least, make sure a MOTU has gone thru and checked if the changes are sane.08:12
TheMusodholbach: I'm happy to help where I can, as I always try to give him a chance, but there are limits.08:12
dholbachyes08:12

Hobbseedholbach: dont we usually do that with a bugflood, then just tag?09:05
HobbseeTheMuso: generate our lists ourselves, and keep uploading them09:05

Hobbseedholbach: link in the topic, etc.09:06

Hobbseedholbach: the other thing is then - to make sure that people are sponsoring from non-MOTU's.09:07
Hobbseewe had a few cases of MOTU's doing the work without checking for bugs, where the hopeful had already done it too09:07
dholbachah ok yeah09:07

\shoh unmet deps..now where even the suggests and recommends are checked09:08
dholbachI'll modify massfile to use pylpbugs instead of mailing, make it operate on a 'config file' that has a lookup-bug-url (?field.tag=unmetdeps in our case) and a standard text for description and title of the bug (also you need to give it a list of source packages)09:10

=== TheMuso used to love forums, but now stays away whereever possible, as they are terribly inifficient.
HobbseeRAOF: indeed.10:07
HobbseeTheMuso: yes, them10:07
TheMusoThe only forum I don't mind visiting is whirlpool.net.au10:07
HobbseeTheMuso: still, the users believe that we're having trouble finding ideas, and so want all of theirs.10:07
RAOFHobbsee: Yes, the "idea pool" forum isn't really functioning usefully.10:08
HobbseeRAOF: it's only ever a place to shove all the requests10:08
TheMusoI'm sure there are many users that say "I shouldn't have to file a bug"10:08
HobbseeRAOF: a black hole would be more effective, though.10:08
HobbseeTheMuso: oh, indeed.10:08
RAOFHobbsee: Even better would be to try and use it to synthesise open source hackers from forum-goers, but that's a low-yield reaction.10:09

RAOF"Let's put all application files in /Applications"!!!!!11111110:12
pwnguinwhich works, if you have NeXT style fat binaries10:13
RAOFpwnguin: AKA static linking?10:13
pwnguinand brutal requirements on linking10:13
pwnguinRAOF: im not sure. i hear next uses fat binaries, but then theres these frameworks10:14
pwnguinand a heard a developer say on a podcast that apple would require you to not ship different framework versions10:15
TheMusoSO much stuff on OS X is statically linked, its crazy.10:15
RAOFTheMuso: Because they don't have a package manager.10:15
TheMusoRAOF: Yeah, but believe it or not, there are dynamic libs on the system, known as .dylib files.10:15
RAOFDynamic linking *requires* a package manager to be remotely useful.10:15
TheMusoYeah.10:16
RAOFTheMuso: Oh, I know.  It's just that each application will ship its own .dylibs, right?10:16
TheMusoRAOF: Either that, or its statically linked. I think.10:16
TheMusoIts a wonder that windows manages, as there is dynamic linking for that.10:16
RAOFAnd shipping it's own libraries is static linking in all but name.10:16
RAOFTheMuso: Windows apps by and large do the same.10:17
TheMusoRAOF: Yeah, but they throw them in windows/system3210:17
RAOFNot all the time.  Also, "dll hell" :)10:17
TheMusoyep10:17
RAOFTheMuso: Most games, for example, will ship any dlls they rely on in $bin_dir10:18
TheMusoRAOF: I'm guessing thats usually "program files/programname"?10:18
RAOFYeah.  Which is why you end up with 50,000 copies of msvcrt_7.foo.bar lying around.10:19
TheMusoLovely.10:19
pwnguinthats not so bad10:19
pwnguinits like 12K10:19
RAOFBasically, thank Debian for the ability to not suck at dynamic linkin.10:19
pwnguinits the 50 copies IN MEMORY that kill10:19
TheMusoLinux does rock in that regard.10:19

pwnguinMS bends over backwards to make sure ancient crap runs i hear10:20
RAOFThey could, if you trusted people not to break ABI.  Which you can't, basically.10:21
TheMusoI know it wouldn't work now.10:21
TheMusopwnguin: Which IMO is the biggest problem with Windows.10:21
TheMusoAnd a big security risk.10:21
RAOFTheMuso: If it was done right & was given thought, they'd end up with something very similar to APT, I think :)10:21
TheMusoRAOF: Agreed.10:21
pwnguinvista has something like a software marketplace10:22
TheMusoBut that will never happen now.10:22

Kopfgeldjaegerthe old avidemux version cannot be built for gutsy. it also has libsmjd-dev as dependency05:26
Kopfgeldjaegerbut05:26
Kopfgeldjaegeri think that this is not needed anymore (because the source for this is in avidemux)05:26
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: btw, since there is already an avidemux, this is not a new package, but an update05:28
Kopfgeldjaegerim currently pbuilding it with feisty while reading how to create multiple pbuilders05:29
Kopfgeldjaegernorsetto: its not based on the old package, and there are some things that are not so good in the ATM-package05:29
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: I don't think that matters much for the archivers05:30
Kopfgeldjaegerok. did i something wrong with uploading it to revu? i also firstly thought revu's only for new packages, but $(name here in 2 minutes) told me its not05:31
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: the old one is in multiverse, btw, and you have a GPL in copyright. Was there such a change?05:31

Kopfgeldjaegerat least it gives avidemux more features (mp3 in case of lame)05:37

Kopfgeldjaegernorsetto: i changed that yesterday in my local environment, but didnt upload it yet (wanted some more changes, to keep the history a bit concise)05:51
Kopfgeldjaegeri think dh_make added this itself. and i changed the "mkdir -p"  thing in debian/rules, too05:52
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: sure, also, since you are using the dirs file, you should use that for /usr/share/applications and /usr/share/pixmaps and remove the mkdir from rules05:52
Kopfgeldjaeger:-)05:52
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: dh_make is evil ....05:52
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: while you are at it you can also remove the cp from rules and use an install file05:53
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: but if you change the name of the icon I don't think you can05:54
Kopfgeldjaegernorsetto: in the manpage of dh_install its not described how to copy extra files into the package. do you have a word to search for? or just an example :)05:54
Kopfgeldjaeger@icon: this was also my argument against *.install yesterday05:55
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: yes, I don't think you can do that with an install file05:55
norsettoKopfgeldjaeger: do you have examples? Because you are using dh_installexamples05:57
Kopfgeldjaegernope, will remove that. and comment out dh_installdocs for now05:57

mertikiHi, I created a source package for Gnucash 2.2.1 based on the Debian one to fix the bug #129759 and wanted to see if my work has any chances to be OK for Gutsy07:26
ubotuLaunchpad bug 129759 in gnucash "new upstream release 2.2.0" [Wishlist,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/12975907:26
mertikiI came speaking about it here because I know that the final Gutsy release is in few weeks07:27
mertikiAnd if Gnucash isn't upgraded to version 2.2.1, there's risks that people will have incompatible gnucash files with the future releases07:28
mertikiDoes anyone can look at this?07:29
