DaSkreechCPrgmSwR2: Hey!03:00
Jucato...03:00
DaSkreechI've been trying to grab you for days03:00
Jucatoand we didn't even get beta4 packaged :)03:00
Jucatoso has it been decided if this will be beta5 or rc1?03:00
Tm_Tbeta5 is my guess03:01
DaSkreechI think it's RC103:01
CPrgmSwR2DaSkreech: why?03:01
DaSkreechCPrgmSwR2: People wanted to talk with you :)03:01
CPrgmSwR2oh really?03:01

Tm_Tharolddong_: hi03:02
harolddong_hey03:03
harolddong_I just noticed some updated kdelibs5 packages in the repos03:03
harolddong_and poppler03:04
Tm_Tsounds scary03:04
harolddong_does this mean the beta is closer?03:04
Tm_Twhat beta?03:04
Jucatomight have been beta4 upgrade?03:04
harolddong_kde beta 4?03:04
Tm_Tnot that I know03:04
Tm_Tthough, who knows03:05
Jucatocheck the version...03:05
DaSkreechWe have like a month to release03:05
Jucatoafaik it should be 3.95 for beta403:05
harolddong_kdelibs 3.95 in the ubuntu repos03:05
Jucatothen that's beta4, afaik03:06
harolddong_but previously you were supposed to get the kde-workspace package and that's not updated03:06
DaSkreechisn't 3.96 tagged?03:07
harolddong_I'm just trying to figure out if its actually fully or not03:07
DaSkreechas soon as CPrgmSwR2 comes back03:07
DaSkreechDoh!03:07
harolddong_they've had that "within a day or so" message up for a few days now03:07
harolddong_*actually released fully or not03:08
Jucatoharolddong_: think of it this way: every day that passes resets the timer... :)03:08
harolddong_so what you're saying is that kde4 beta 4 is the the duke nukem forever of the linux world03:08
harolddong_that's meann03:08
harolddong_you said it not me03:09
harolddong_:P03:09
Jucatohuh?03:09
Jucatokde4 beta4 has been released Oct 30...03:09
Jucatothe only problem is the kubuntu packages03:09
Jucatonothing to do with kde itself03:09
harolddong_yeah yeah I know that\03:09
harolddong_but seeing as how I'm kubuntu03:10
harolddong_that's all I care about03:10
* Hobbsee spoke to cprov about the ppa breakage03:10
JucatoHobbsee: something got through it seems03:10
Jucato<harolddong_> kdelibs 3.95 in the ubuntu repos03:10
harolddong_I mean there are obviously some of the packages in the repos now03:11
harolddong_yeah03:11
harolddong_so what's missing now is my question03:11
Hobbseeyes, -libs might be there03:11
Hobbseeis kdebase-workspace there?03:12
harolddong_poppler packages updated too03:12
harolddong_no like I said workspace isnt03:12
CPrgmSwR2DaSkreech: back03:12
DaSkreechCPrgmSwR2: can you join #kdegames ?03:12
harolddong_should I just wait to install what's in there now?03:13
harolddong_I'm sitting here staring at it03:13
CPrgmSwR2Hobbsee: why not scratch kde beta5 and head for kde release canidate 103:13
Hobbseewhen's the rc 1 out?03:14
JucatoCPrgmSwR2: so it's been decided to be rc1?03:14
Hobbseebecause the work's already been done, i think03:14
DaSkreechJucato: I don't know but I can't see how else03:14
CPrgmSwR2Hobbsee: RC1 has been tagged 10 hours ago03:14
Jucatoit's been tagged, although I haven't seen the tagging announcement :)03:14
DaSkreechtags cycles are like 2 weeks and it's about a month till 4.0 relelase03:15
harolddong_if the work has been done then where is it03:15
CPrgmSwR2http://websvn.kde.org/tags/KDE/3.96/03:15
JucatoDaSkreech: afaik there were some discussion as to whether it should be beta5 or rc103:16
HobbseeCPrgmSwR2: neat.03:16
DaSkreechJucato: Yeah But there is one more release cycle before 4.003:17
Jucatoand?03:17
DaSkreechRC it and then something comes up you slip the release?03:17
CPrgmSwR2RC 2?03:17
CPrgmSwR2Hobbsee: anyways I think what is in tags/KDE/3.96 should be packaged in place of beta503:18
DaSkreechThat would be on the week of 4.003:18
DaSkreechyou would have to slide the release03:18
Jucatothat's the idea... unless they settle for just 1 RC release03:19

Tonio_Jucato: hey :)07:03
JucatoTonio_: how's kdesudo doing? :)07:03
Tonio_Jucato: no big change atm07:03
Tonio_Jucato: still a couple of bugs to fix.....07:04
Jucatosomeone was reporting yesterday that "kdesu -u <username> <app>" doesn't work (whereas it used to under the former kdesu)07:04
Tonio_Jucato: that's a bug with sudo and not kdesudo07:04
Jucatohm.. doesn't sudo -u work with that as well?07:04
Tonio_sudo -u <username> doesn't work, while the option exists07:04
Jucatoah so it's sudo (again?)07:04
Tonio_yep07:05
Jucatobut I guess right now the biggest "bug" is with the changing permissions thingy?07:05
Tonio_Jucato: you mean ?07:05
Jucatothe old bug? has it been fixed?07:05
* Jucato hasn't updated lately :P07:05
Jucatothe one that creates config files in ~/.kde with root ownership instead of the user's07:06

moope1hullo, what are the plans for networking for Heron, Although much better knetworkmanager still needs some sorting out.08:45
_StefanS_hi all08:55
_StefanS_moope1: I think the only plan is to follow official knm track08:59
_StefanS_moope1: I know theyre going to support networkmanager 0.7 in the next knm version08:59
moope1_StefanS_: knm track?09:00
_StefanS_moope1: their plan is to support the new underlying networkmanager 0.7 with the (new) features it provides09:01
_StefanS_moope1: kubuntu will just bundle the newest stable release09:02
_StefanS_Riddell: do correct me if I'm wrong09:02
Hobbseethat would be the plan09:03
Hobbseealthough knetworkmanager upstream could likely do with some help09:03
_StefanS_yes, and its something thats on my list... although I havent been able to do much lately. We've talked about a redesign of the gui in the WPA(2) Enterprise/Personal settings since they're confusing09:04
_StefanS_havent had the time to do mockups and code though :(09:04
_StefanS_ah that good lack of time...09:07
_StefanS_Hobbsee: maybe we should change the topic on kde4 beta4; it has been there for a week or something :)09:09
Hobbseehehe09:09
_StefanS_or is it coming ?09:09
Hobbseeunsure09:09
_StefanS_uh09:10
WaltzingAlongcoming in the next day or so09:11
WaltzingAlong!!09:11
_StefanS_okay great09:11
moope1_StefanS_ thanks for the info09:11
_StefanS_moope1: no problem, and do ask again if you need more info.. Hobbsee can be of great help too09:12
_StefanS_I hope :D09:12
Hobbseei can? :P09:14
moope1imho (if there is such a think) the networking is he last real problem kubuntu has09:15
_StefanS_moope1: could you explain how you see the problems in the current version?09:15
_StefanS_moope1: might help09:15
_StefanS_Hobbsee: on procedures, people to talk to, responsibilities etc. you know a hell lot more than i do ;)09:16
Hobbseeokay, good point :P09:16
_StefanS_;)09:16
moope1_StefanS_: Maybe just my wireless card but connecting to a wireless network can take a long time. on occasion, the entire thing dies and it wont connect to anything. Hopping on and off networks seems to cause crashes.09:19
_StefanS_moope1: what brand of wireless ?09:19
_StefanS_moope1: atheros, intel.. ?09:19
moope1broadcom09:19
_StefanS_moope1: in a laptop?09:20
moope1yup09:20
WaltzingAlongor let the user know that settings stored in knetworkmanager/kwallet mean that user has to be logged in, kwallet accessed - some may want systemwide settings09:20
_StefanS_moope1: got the chipset version?09:20
moope1sure09:20
moope11 sec09:20
_StefanS_WaltzingAlong: you mean if you were to have a machine with wireless used by multiple people?09:22
_StefanS_WaltzingAlong: and have network access upon boot09:22
moope1BCM4312 802.11 a/b/g (rev 01)09:22
WaltzingAlong_StefanS_: mostly the second option; not knetworkmanager's job but new users (and some old ones) may not know that09:23
moope1yeah, I was having problems with the wallet thing yesterday, I had entered an incorrect WEP key but it had been stored in the wallet, I have to go in and delete the entry from the wallet.09:23
moope1I dont like the wallet, main reason why I dont use konqueror :(09:24
_StefanS_moope1: well interaction with the wallet should be improved alot so you can manage the stuff entirely from knm imho,09:24
_StefanS_WaltzingAlong: actually it could be solved by having the kcm module for configuring the network adapters, supporting wireless as well09:25
_StefanS_WaltzingAlong: and that wireless config should just be active if knm is not running09:25
WaltzingAlong_StefanS_: right. networkmanager comes across as the tool to manage the network configure - which it is but per user09:25
_StefanS_uhm I need more coffee09:26
WaltzingAlongand i am not arguing that knm should also add to /etc/network/interfaces just that the user knows that perhaps upon first use with knm09:26
_StefanS_WaltzingAlong: yes definitely something to be looked at09:29
_StefanS_Hobbsee: isn't this something to be written up as a use case?09:29
_StefanS_moope1: you wireless is probably working fine.. I've had similar issues with not being able to connect to anything (seems like nm leaves the wireless in some unknown state)09:30
_StefanS_moope1: cant pick up AP or anything09:31
moope1No it does work fine, when it happens I use the iw set of tools09:33
moope1just gets a bit borked with knm09:33
moope1I havent tested yet but when I was using knm in feisty and I tried to manually set gateway and dns it all went really wrong.09:34
_StefanS_moope1: so you can reset it back with iw?09:34
moope1It works using iw, when it messes up I just use cli09:35
moope1abandon it09:35
moope1fiddling with it too much usually results it it crashing :)09:35
_StefanS_yes unfortunately09:35
moope1I like the interface tho :)09:36
_StefanS_yes, but its fragile I agree09:36
moope1Where should I be writing all this down. I have been using kubuntu for too long without putting somwthing back09:36
_StefanS_yes it would be way cool to have it all written down09:37
moope1do you have a proper testing procedure?09:37
_StefanS_it makes it alot easier to fix because you know the full scope of the problem(s)09:37
_StefanS_not as much as ubuntu unfortunately09:37

Tonio_hi10:28
Tonio_hum very strange issue, since this morning my desktop points on /10:28
Tonio_can someone confirm ?10:28
* Jucato waves hi to _StefanS_, Tonio_, jpatrick, GNUton10:28
_StefanS_jey you10:28
_StefanS_hey you10:28
Jucato:)10:29
GNUtonI've updated KUbuntu some minutes ago, and apt-get has installed the last kdelibs5 package, but the others packages (kdepim kdebase...) missing and i'm unable to compile KDE4 apps..10:30
GNUtonthe linker give me unresolved symbols error..10:30
GNUton(for KDE4 packagers maintainer) So please add all the needed packages.10:31
Hobbseethey all have to build against the kdelibs stuff.  i'ts ocming.10:31
jpatrickGNUton: did you install kdebase-workspace-dev ?10:31
GNUtonhowever hello jpatrick, Tonio_, Jucato, Hobbsee! :)10:32

Tonio_hi GNUton10:32
JucatoGreetings, earthlings!10:32
RiddellTonio_: hardy?10:33
Tonio_Riddell: yes ;)10:33
GNUtonHobbsee: no, i didn't!10:33
Tonio_Riddell: same issue with a new user10:33
GNUtonHobbsee: i'm installing it now..10:33
Hobbseejpatrick: ^10:34
jpatrickHobbsee: ;)10:34
Tonio_Riddell: also, in kcontrol/path module, clicking on "defaults" sets a /10:34
Tonio_Riddell: and changing the value has no effect10:34
Tonio_Riddell: no idea what has been changed btw, did you change kdelibs things ?10:35
Tonio_Riddell: fyi that didn't happen yesterday after my hardy switch and a reboot, just this morning, I don't know what was changed in between...10:36
RiddellTonio_: try running xdg-user-dirs-update10:36
Tonio_Riddell: command not found...10:37
Tonio_installing the package and testing10:38
Tonio_Riddell: seems to have worked..... at least choosing defaults seems to select the good folders.........10:38
Tonio_Riddell: the probably is due to fact that the packaging xdg-user-dirs is not installed by default no ?10:39
Tonio_I suspect some change might require the utility to be started ?10:40
RiddellTonio_: it's started as part of the X session if you have it installed10:41
RiddellI should probably make it a depencency of kdelibs10:41
Tonio_Riddell: worked, thanks10:41
Tonio_Riddell: yep I suspect that would nice indeed, especially since the package is super little10:41
Tonio_Riddell: want me to do this ? I'm on contrib day today too10:41
Tonio_Riddell: ho and to finish adept ftbfs on the buildd, i386 seems broken...........10:42
RiddellTonio_: please do10:42
Tonio_Riddell: oki10:42
Hobbseeoooh, bad debian.11:09
Hobbseekonversation upstream will likely eat them11:11
RiddellHobbsee: why?11:14
HobbseeRiddell: they've chucked a svn snapshot of konversation into experimental.11:15
RiddellI doubt that'll be a problem, nobody uses experimental unless they really know what's they're in for11:16
Hobbseesho usually expresses great displeasure when any distro distributes any svn version of konversation at all.11:19
Tonio_Hobbsee: sho usually expresses great displeasure with everything11:20
HobbseeTonio_: well, there si that.11:20
Tonio_Hobbsee: he doesn't seem to understand what "free software" means11:20
Tonio_whatever you do, as long as it is not based on the standard tarball without any change, is a problem11:21
Hobbseeheh11:21
Hobbseei'm surprised the licencing stuff doesnt say that11:21
Tonio_he reacts as if konversation is a proprietary software...11:21
Tonio_Hobbsee: to be honnest, if there was a good alternative to konversation, I would get rid of it for kubuntu just to get rid of him complaning all the time11:24
Hobbseeheh11:24
Hobbseethere seems ot be no good alternative.11:25
Tonio_Hobbsee: unfortunatelly :)11:25
Tonio_Hobbsee: kopete might be a good irc client, I never played with him a lot11:26
Hobbseeim clients never make good irc clients.11:26
jpatrickI second that^11:26

Tonio_Hobbsee: except our default theme that is not nice for irc11:30
Hobbseeheh11:30
Tonio_well it is a correct irc client11:31
Tonio_Hobbsee: to be honnest, I might give a try to make it my default irc client :)11:34

Hobbseehehe11:37
Hobbseeyes11:37
Hobbseei thought it was something like that.11:37
Tonio_Hobbsee: well acording to sho (once again) that's better as the closing in the systray is eil11:38
Riddellhe's right there :)11:39
Tonio_Riddell: that's an opinion indeed11:41
Tonio_Riddell: what I don't like is that he doesn't accept distros to change the default settings to their needs11:41
Tonio_Riddell: thatgoes against free softwares imho11:42
_StefanS_maybe he should just change the license and set a $99 price tag on it.11:42

Jucatowhich I also heard he'll do before hardy feature freeze13:50

Jucatonot particularly impressed... the menu is a ripoff of kbfx... the "style" of the main menu (single button rather than icon w/ "Start") is a ripoff of KDE...14:35
jcastrogood morning kubuntu folks!14:36

Hobbseegreetings jcastro14:36
jcastrothis is going to be like one big ongoing open week to get MOTUs, so if you guys want to schedule kubuntu-specific MOTU outreach sessions, please let me know14:37
HobbseeTonio_: &14:37
Hobbsee!visternal14:37
ubotuOh no!  The pointy-clicky Vista lover has arrived!  He's rumoured to be giving out free money, too!14:37
* Hobbsee wonders if he has that on highlight.14:37
Jucatojcastro: nice first comment on jono's post :P14:37
mhbfree as in free money...14:38
jcastroJucato: yeah, I'm sure we'll get alot of that for a while, even though we fixed it in a few hours, sigh.14:38
nixternalbooyahcah14:40
* nixternal doesn't want to go to school today14:41
Hobbseedo my exam instead then14:41
nixternalbut seeing as I ditched class on Tuesday, I need to go today14:41
nixternalHobbsee: what class?14:41
Hobbseephysics - electromagnetism, etc.14:41
nixternalno freakin' way14:41
nixternalalthough, I might get lucky in electromagnetism, unless they go super scientific14:42
Hobbseewell, you can fail it, or i can, so...14:42
nixternallol14:42
Hobbseewell, it *is* physics.14:42
* Jucato is still traumatized by soldering irons...14:42
nixternalJucato: I have a soldering iron here that will never traumatize14:42
JucatoI'd rather use Vista...14:42
Jucato:)14:42
nixternalhahaha14:42
Jucatotime for that cold shower in the middle of a very cold night :)14:43
nixternalspeaking of Vista, I installed Safari on it yesterday, and to say the least, I am not impressed14:43

* Jucato resists the urge to reply to nixternal's post...15:10
Jucato"untamed Google ads reveals the person's Google usage patterns" :D15:11
Jucatos/reveals/reveal/15:11
Tonio_nixternal: what's interesting with safari is the engine15:14
Tonio_nixternal: fast and opensource engine15:15
Tonio_nixternal: safari UI is very basic15:15
Jucatowebkit?15:23
Tm_TTonio_: not basic, crippled15:24
Tonio_ah ;)15:25
Tonio_Tm_T: the osx version is not that bad15:25
Tm_Tit is15:26
Tm_TTonio_: I have never used other than OSX version, and it is painnnn15:26
Tonio_Tm_T: bah ! not that much in my opinion15:29
Tm_Tyup15:29
Tonio_Tm_T: of course I prefer konqueror, but honnestly, webkit is today way better than khtml15:29
Tm_Thm15:29
Tm_Tperhaps15:30
Tonio_I can't wayt for kde4 to be able to use konqueror with webkit15:30
Tm_Tbut without proper UI it's nothing15:30
mhbTonio_: you'll wait for quite some time before that happens15:30
mhbTonio_: Kubuntu 9.04 maybe15:31
Tonio_mhb: according to what I read, it looks like both khtml and webkit will be available15:31
Riddellmhb: what makes you say that?15:31
mhbhmm, perhaps my information were outdated, because last time I read info about WebKit, they were going for it once it is in Qt4...15:31
Riddellyes15:32
mhbthat means it first would have to go into Qt4.X, then into KDE and the transition takes time15:32
Riddellqt 4.4 is due around march/april15:32
Riddelland the kpart is in svn (dunno how well it works mind)15:33
Tonio_Riddell: kpart for kde3 ? :)15:33
mhbif it's the typical KDE "testing" stability, then I wouldn't even bother trying it :o)15:33
RiddellTonio_: no15:33
mhbtheir "beta" is what I'd call alpha15:34
Tonio_Riddell: ok :'(15:34
Tonio_mhb: pre-alpha concerning kde415:34
Tonio_I didn't understand too why calling this "beta"15:34
Riddellit's being done by trolltech, not KDE15:36
mhbyes, but KDE has to integrate it, which might be the bottleneck IMHO ... the guys will rather concentrate on fixing bugs elsewhere in KDE4.015:37
RiddellKDE doesn't have to do anything, we just set the webkit kpart as default15:38
mhbwhich means the new exciting features get delayed, and delays are squared in the free software world15:38
mhbRiddell: I guess I'm too pessimistic. Let's see how it turns out!15:38
begert_hey people15:39
seeleis anything going to happen with the grub config ui or is that unlikely?15:47
seelei know there were issues with updates resetting config files15:47
mhbseele: it's cursed, all the people that offered help with it while I was doing GSoC lost their interest eventually15:48
mhbseele: its fate is tied with the GNOME counterpart, which was created during this UDS and I think it's in universe15:48
Jucatodoesn't Ubuntu have one already?15:48
mhberr, s/UDS/SoC15:48
mhbseele: ^^15:48
Jucato(answers my Q too)15:49
seelemhb: ah15:55
begert_if I am trying to get involved with Kubuntu development, is it kind of a waste to dig into KDE4 (waste may be a harsh word)15:57
seeleouch, don't let troy hear that15:58
Jucatothat depends. what part of Kubuntu development are you trying to get involved with at this point?15:58
begert_I would like to try and touch all aspects to get a feel for what I might most be interested in15:59
begert_I like triaging and maybe eventually bug fixing16:01
begert_I like to test software16:01
Jucatowell I think at this point in time, most of the KDE 4 plans for Kubuntu revolve around packaging it and figuring out how to do the transition from KDE 3 to KDE 416:01
begert_I also think packaging could be interesting16:02
Jucatoalthough it will only be until Kubuntu 8.10 that we'll ship KDE 4 as the default16:02
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
begert_right, so i can see where keeping up to date on how KDE4 is coming along, I want a more immediate way of contributing.....if that makes sense16:03
Jucatomakes perfect sense :)16:04
Jucatoyou can always focus on the here and now problems :)16:04
Jucatolet's see.... there's bug triaging and fixing, packaging, documentation, helping mhb...16:05
Jucatofixing adept..16:05
begert_heh16:06
* Jucato is not really the person to hand out junior jobs16:06
begert_I know there are lots of places to help, and have read what i think is most of the HOWTO type stuff16:06
JucatoI guess it helps narrow things down if you have a particular are of interest or talent/skill/knowledge16:06
begert_I just still find that I am having trouble seeing how to jump in16:07
begert_well, I am a C++ programmer16:07
Jucatooooh that's a big plus :)16:07
begert_I don't know a ton about linux16:07
Jucatobegert_: you've read this? https://wiki.kubuntu.org/HelpingKubuntu16:08
* begert_ doesn't claim to be a great C++ programmer16:08
Jucatoheh you're definitely a better one that I am16:08
* Jucato claims to still be a C++ student16:08
Jucatobegert_: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuHardyCatchup has some of the goals for hardy16:09
Jucatoand https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuHardyKde4 as well16:09
begert_yea, I think I have read through that16:09
begert_I have a launchpad account and have submitted/half triaged a few bugs16:10
Jucatohm.. not knowing what else to suggest, I'd say continue with the bug triage and try to see if you could fix some of them :)16:10
begert_true :P16:10
JucatoRiddell, nixternal: if you have any ideas for junior jobs/low hanging fruits for begert_16:10
Jucatomhb: you too :)16:11
Jucatoin the meantime.. brb :)16:11
begert_i suppose it could help if I came in here with a specific bug and asked on best ways to triage and whatnot16:11
begert_can't do much right now since I am at work :P16:12
mhbbegert_: that is a nice way to learn ... find a bug that bothers you personally (and you can reproduce it), try to triage it and if you don't know, come here and ask16:12
* Jucato wonders what mhb's bug number is...16:12
Jucatohm.. brb..16:12
begert_sounds about right...16:13
mhbJucato: I am the bug that bothers you? :o)16:13
Jucatoah wait... I can't reproduce that bug... so that's off my list :P16:13
mhbbegert_: it's quite hard to fix bugs unless you can reproduce them on your machine16:13
Jucatoit's hard to fix bugs that can't be reproduce anywhere too :)16:14
begert_yea, I imagine one of the hardest things is finding a bug that I can reproduce16:18
nixternalJucato: dev jobs? or any job?16:26
Jucatonot for me :P16:26
Jucatofor begert_. he knows C++!!!!!16:26
* jpatrick does too16:27
* nixternal does three16:27
* Jucato does minus one16:27
nixternalhehe16:27
Jucatotime to learn gtkmm :P16:27
nixternalyou are getting there young jedi16:27
* Jucato dies16:27
nixternaleww16:27
* nixternal helps Jucato die16:27
* nixternal gives him vista premium on a 48616:27
Jucatoheh yeah I'm getting there... if I can only stop myself from writing stuff... :P16:28
jpatricknixternal: could you revu kopete-thinklight on revu?16:28
nixternalwhen I get home I can16:28
Jucatoanyway, off to bed w/ me16:28
Jucatooh you didn't play hooky? :D16:28
nixternalI came to class today thinking we were in a the lecture hall and not the lab...so right now I am using XP and Putty16:28

jpatricknixternal: it pbuilds fine, just needs an ack :)16:29
nixternalcan't login to revu though16:29
nixternalcan I ack here for you?16:29
nixternaldid they finally fix revu so Lintian doesn't cry about the distro anymore16:30
jpatricksure :) I think apachelogger would like it16:30
jpatrickyep16:30
nixternalI wonder whos idea it was to just whip up these useless man pages16:30
nixternalall they do is eventually create bug reports16:31
nixternalI think it is stupid..wtf do gui apps need man pages anyays when they typically have a much more extensive help document with them16:31
apachelogger+116:31
nixternalI think whoever made that rule up is stupid16:31
apacheloggerjpatrick: btw, revu is eating my uploads -.-16:31
jpatrickapachelogger: explains the freaky khalkhicards thing16:32
nixternalthis is a freakin' plugin at that....right apachelogger? honestly, I would remove the man page, and if someone bitches, give um the thumb :p16:32
* nixternal goes to -motu to raise hell16:32
* apachelogger gives lintian and linda the thumb16:32
apacheloggerjpatrick: well, something's really strange about that as well16:33
jpatricknixternal: I think it's binary-must-have-man16:33
apacheloggeranyway, I reuploded... but since revu is eating my uploads16:33
apacheloggeryep16:33
apacheloggerall binary16:33
* apachelogger updates his oxygen kde3 port16:33
nixternalthere, I made my rant, and it is only a matter of time until someone says "because Debian says so"16:33
nixternaljpatrick: it is, and it is stupid16:34
jpatrickapachelogger: and is the plug a binary.. or a .so file? :>16:34
apacheloggerjpatrick: I has not clue16:35
apacheloggergood I love stupid sentences :D16:35
nixternaljpatrick: it creates a binary16:36
nixternaleven has its own config ui16:36
jpatrickodd, I thought it would just make a .so would kopete grabs16:36
nixternalcreates that too16:37
apacheloggerso, who do I have to send the cookies to, to get revu fixed?16:39
mhbnixternal: why are you upset, google ads remember your !nixternal phrase, that's all16:39
mhb:o)16:39
nixternalhaha16:40
nixternalnice16:40
nixternalapachelogger: nix the man page and you get my ack!16:41
nixternalthere be no /usr/bin binary16:42
apacheloggernixternal: revu is eating my uploads, so I can't remove it16:42
nixternaljeesh...getting the lib deps takes longer than building the actual package :)16:42
nixternalhrmm16:43
nixternalthat stinks...can you put it somewhere that jpatrick can grab it and upload it?16:43
jpatrickapachelogger: how about I remove it here and upload?16:43
* nixternal hopes that his pyqt4 book will be in the mailbox when he gets home16:44
nixternalthat will work too :)16:44
apacheloggerjpatrick: would be even better if you could direct me to a revu admin so I get my uploads fixed :P16:44
jpatrickapachelogger: ask siretart on -motu16:45
nixternaljpatrick: hey, before you upload, you might want to strip the *.la from it16:46
nixternalno biggy, but it will eventually need it16:46
nixternalit doesn't create a binary..I was wrong...just 2 .so and 2 .la files as well as the kcfg and desktop files16:46
nixternalahh, I was wrong once again16:47
nixternalthis is so stupid16:47

* apachelogger is wondering16:47
nixternalit does create a binary -> kopete_thinklight_fixpermissions16:48
apacheloggerright16:48
apacheloggerjust wanted to say that :D16:48
nixternaland it is in /usr/bin, so according to the idiots who made up the ruls, you need to have a man page I guess16:48
nixternalhaha, don't try and install that plugin on a headless server :p16:49
nixternalmy window just filled up with deps it needs to install first :)16:49
nixternaljpatrick and apachelogger: only recommendation is the removal of the 2 .la files that are created from the .deb16:50
jpatricknixternal: what's wrong with .la files?16:53
nixternaljpatrick: we remove them from packages, we don't use nor install them anymore16:54
jpatrickah, and what's the rule?16:55
jpatrickpost-build:: ?16:55
nixternalI am trying to remember17:01
nixternalI think I just created .install files and never added the .la files17:01
nixternalusr/lib/kde3/*.so17:02
nixternalusr/share17:02
nixternal+/* to that one17:02
nixternaland usr/bin/*17:02
nixternalthat would install everything but the .la files17:02
jpatrickok will do17:03
apacheloggerjpatrick: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=64917:06
apacheloggernixternal: really, cdbs should remove the la's17:06
nixternalapachelogger: I think you are right, I can't remember how you go about it right now17:07
nixternalI have my notes on it in my laptop, which is about 15 miles from me right now :(17:07

apacheloggerthanks17:16
jpatrickapachelogger: no, insanity's not here ;)17:16
* apachelogger is wondering who's fault that is :P17:16
apacheloggerjpatrick: btw, how many packages to go until I may become a master?17:17
jpatrickapachelogger: how long have you been packaging for?17:17
jpatrickI think they want quality not quantity17:17
apacheloggernow, do I do bad quality? ;-)17:18
jpatricknot at all17:18
nixternalapachelogger: how come you aren't a MOTU yet?17:19
nixternalis it because you concentrate on KDE packages only? :p17:19
* apachelogger is frightened of being reject :P17:19
apacheloggerreally, that would be hell embarrassing17:20
jpatrickwhy?17:20
nixternalwhen I went for MOTU, 2 people brought up the whole "you only do KDE packages, why?" I was like "I hate gnome!"17:20
jpatrickI had the spanish inquistion at my application :(17:20
apacheloggerjpatrick: the amarok guys would mess with me for the next 2 years or something17:20
nixternalheh17:20
nixternalpersia drilled me17:20
nixternalI don't have any need, let alone want, to do any gnome packages, unless someone needs my help17:20
apacheloggernixternal: I actually thought about doing some GNOME packages as wel17:20
jpatrickapachelogger: well the kubuntu guys are behind you here :)17:21
nixternalapachelogger: do a couple so you can say "see, I am well diversed" :p17:21
apacheloggernever bad to show support for the freedesktop in general, I guess ;-)17:21
