[07:56] <dragon76> hardy alpha1 running well out of box on everex laptop
[08:21] <sebastian^> good morning folks :)
[08:25] <mhb> sebastian^: hello
[08:27] <sebastian^> hey mhb
[10:21] <Tonio_> hi
[10:21] <Tonio_> fdoving: ping ?
[10:21] <fdoving> hi.
[10:21]  * Jucato waves around the room
[10:21] <Tonio_> fdoving: had time to work yesterday ? I will to do something today, so just to be sure to dupe efforts....
[10:21] <Tonio_> hey Jucato
[10:22] <fdoving> Tonio_: no, busy most of yesterday, no time.
[10:22] <Tonio_> fdoving: no pb ;) I'll try to do something today and will let you know
[11:03] <Tonio_> fdoving: talking about the xauthority problems, I noticed that sudo allows to preserve an env variable
[11:03] <Tonio_> fdoving: if XAUTHORITY is set, and we force sudo to preserve it, there is no need of a tweak with the -H option
[11:03] <Tonio_> fdoving: is that acceptable doing this this way or not ?
[11:05] <Tonio_> fdoving: I don't see the point playing with iceauthority vs xauthority, but I may miss something on that point
[11:12] <fdoving> Tonio_: they kind of do different things. imagine you have user1 trying to do 'kdesudo -u user2 konuqeror' - if you only preserv the environment-variable which basicailly is the path to /home/user1/.Xauthority - user2 would not be able to read that file and it would fail.
[11:13] <fdoving> it would work when kdesudoing to root, and it's the way it's currently done in gutsy iirc.
[11:13] <Tonio_> oki got it
[11:13] <fdoving> the -H is primarily for the $HOME variable.
[11:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: switching to kprocess worked :) good point, now clean for the hacks done before
[11:14] <fdoving> let me know when you have pushed to bzr.
[11:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: I know concerning the -H, but when no env is set, X looks to $HOME/.Xauthority
[11:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: that's why sudo konqueror when sudo -H konqueror doesn't
[11:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: just export your Xauthority and that's it
[11:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: sure I will
[11:15] <fdoving> exporting can work, if your .Xauthority got the right permissions.
[11:16] <fdoving> root can of course read everything, once you start using other users it becomes advanced.
[11:16] <fdoving> you can of course copy your .Xauthority to some magic place and/or give it less restrictive permissions.
[11:16] <fdoving> I've commented about it in the source somewhere.
[11:16] <fdoving> The same problem arise when making new xauth keys.
[11:16] <fdoving> but they timeout after some set time.
[11:17] <fdoving> which is a good thing imo.
[11:26] <Tonio_> fdoving: can you remind me of a simple example of a problem kshellprocess might create ?
[11:26] <Tonio_> fdoving: last time you gave me an example, but I can't seem to remember in fact ;)
[11:27] <fdoving> Tonio_: it needs properly escaped input. it's easy to trick it into executing things by naming files/directories for example.
[11:27] <fdoving> the problem is that everything is executed with the help from /bin/sh
[11:27] <fdoving> with kprocess it's not.
[11:28] <Tonio_> fdoving: yep, but even with kprocess I can reproduce the issue if I don't quote all args....
[11:28] <Tonio_> fdoving: tricky isn't it ?
[11:28] <Tonio_> opening as root "konqueror:konqueror" starts konqueror as root, then as user
[11:29] <Tonio_> s/:/;
[11:29] <fdoving> you didn't set 'setUseShell' did you ?
[11:29] <fdoving> it needs to be false.
[11:30] <Tonio_> fdoving: nope I didn't, isn't false the default ?
[11:31] <fdoving> should be.
[11:33] <fdoving> what if you use KProcess:quote() ?
[11:34] <fdoving> i need to go, back in ~30min, driving to a different house.
[11:34] <Tonio_> oki ;)

[12:01] <Hobbsee> Riddell: fix them, isntead of swimming through the
[12:01] <Hobbsee> m
[12:06] <Riddell> Tonio_: dood, this kpar2 isn't going to stick
[12:06] <Riddell> what have archive admin said to you before?
[12:10] <Tonio_> Riddell: nothing
[12:10] <Tonio_> Riddell: got removed once by Hobbsee since I uploaded by error on ubuntu instead of revu
[12:10] <Tonio_> Riddell: now it is reviewed, archived and uploaded to ubuntu
[12:10] <Tonio_> Riddell: dunno what the problem is....
[12:11] <Riddell> Tonio_: it's GPL 3
[12:12] <Tonio_> Riddell: lemme look
[12:13] <Tonio_> Riddell: COPYING mentions gpl v2
[12:13] <Riddell> all the source files are GPL 3
[12:14] <Tonio_> hum, true :/
[12:14] <Tonio_> okay I'll have to see that with upstream then :/
[12:17] <Riddell> thanks
[12:24] <Tonio_> Riddell: sorry for missing that..... stupid copying file....
[12:42] <mhb> good afternoon, what's up?

[12:44] <Jucato> er..I meant ouch
[12:44] <mhb> well, better back to school
[12:44] <mhb> not much fun here :o)
[12:46] <Tonio_> fdoving: little problem here, you told me not to use a shell process, and connect to a pty
[12:46] <Tonio_> but usepty sets shellprocess to true... that's the problem :)
[12:46] <Tonio_> fdoving: http://www.mcs.vuw.ac.nz/technical/software/doc/kde/HTML/en/kdelibs-apidocs/kdecore/html/kprocess_8cpp-source.html
[12:47] <Tonio_> fdoving: look line 100
[12:51] <Riddell> so, I need a final session for kubuntu tutorial day
[12:51] <Riddell> Tonio_: fancy doing the second packaging tutorial?
[12:52] <Tonio_> Riddell: may not have time today but why not yes
[12:52] <Tonio_> Riddell: when is it ?
[12:52] <Riddell> Tonio_: thu 13th, 18:00utc
[12:53] <Tonio_> Riddell: I will be in toulouse for work
[12:53] <Tonio_> Riddell: unsure to have internet connexion :'(
[12:54] <Riddell> ooh la la
[12:54] <Tonio_> et oui :/
[12:54] <Riddell> maybe mhb could take it on
[12:54] <Tonio_> Riddell: lemme look at the calendar
[12:55] <Tonio_> Riddell: yes, I'll be in the middle of a class session arround samba....
[12:55] <Tonio_> Riddell: hard to do kubuntu at the same time :)
[12:55] <Riddell> class session?
[12:56] <Tonio_> yep
[12:57] <Tonio_> euh......
[12:57] <Tonio_> isn't that correct in english ?
[12:57] <Tonio_> I'm giving a samba session for 10 users
[12:57] <Riddell> it is, I just didn't know your work included that kind of thing
[12:57] <Tonio_> "class" was bad french translation sorry :)
[12:57] <Tonio_> Riddell: yep it does
[12:58] <Tonio_> Riddell: as well as giving interviews to recruit new people and so on
[12:58] <apachelogger__> meh
[12:59] <Riddell> or maybe we should have a general getting your work into Kubuntu, intro to PPA, revu, MOTU etc
[13:01] <apachelogger__> Riddell: bug 173882 is all jpatrick's fault :P

[13:01] <Riddell> apachelogger__: well he's not around to throw it at :)
[13:01]  * apachelogger__ is wondering what that line isn't parsable after all
[13:02] <fdoving> Tonio_: interessting. tried without a pty then?
[13:04] <apachelogger__> omm
[13:04] <apachelogger__> I am out of disk spaces -.-
[13:04] <Tonio_> fdoving: works
[13:04] <fdoving> Tonio_: great, works as we want it to?
[13:04] <Tonio_> fdoving: btw, as long as everything is quoted (I used kprocess:quote), a shellprocess might not be that a big problem
[13:05] <Tonio_> fdoving: I have the feeling that a shellprocess is used in fact
[13:05] <fdoving> in theory it is evil even if you quote.
[13:05] <fdoving> for such a program.
[13:06] <Tonio_> fdoving: the problem I have is that I can't seem to read the "passprompt" required to push the password
[13:06] <Tonio_> fdoving: sudo needs shell on that point
[13:06] <fdoving> yep.
[13:07] <Tonio_> fdoving: fo the moment I'll keep the pty thing, whatever it sets, and will do the quoting correctly, then make hudge tests, and we can rediscuss this later
[13:07] <Tonio_> also I'll have a look at how does gksu work
[13:07] <fdoving> ok.
[13:08] <fdoving> does the usePty make it appear as it should in /var/run/sudo/$user ?
[13:08] <Tonio_> fdoving: the problem is I think that sudo interacts with the user, and for that a shell process is needed
[13:08] <Tonio_> fdoving: there's no way to use a cmdline option to push the password, that's my concern
[13:09] <Tonio_> fdoving: stop me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there is an easy solution on that point
[13:09] <Tonio_> fdoving: concerning the pty I'll test and will let you know
[13:09] <Tonio_> fdoving: also, always using the same pty would help in making the -k option to work right ?
[13:10] <fdoving> no idea. but it might help :)
[13:12] <Tonio_> fdoving: also what is the kdesu -t option ?
[13:12] <Tonio_> fdoving: looks that this is the one missing that causes problems with kdevelop and so on right ?
[13:12] <fdoving> yep.
[13:13] <Tonio_> fdoving: hard to implement ?
[13:13] <fdoving> don't know.
[13:13] <fdoving> but looking at kdesu it's not that simple.
[13:16] <apachelogger> Riddell: fix uploaded
[13:19] <Riddell> thanks apachelogger
[13:25] <Riddell> Hobbsee: how do you do nbs?
[13:26] <Hobbsee> Riddell: fix the packages so that nothing depends on the packages in the nbs list
[13:26] <Hobbsee> each nbs package shows the packages which depend on it, so you can fix them
[13:30] <Riddell> Hobbsee: where's the list again?
[13:30] <Hobbsee> p.u.c/~u-a/NBS
[13:31] <Riddell> ah hah
[14:03] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'm pretty happy with kdesudo right now
[14:03] <Tonio_> fdoving: the only problem is that parsing -c option and all args correctly results an horrible command with the quotes
[14:04] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'm not sure we want to show the command to the user....
[14:04] <Tonio_> fdoving: btw gksu doesn't
[14:04] <Tonio_> Riddell: have any opinion on that point ?
[14:05] <Tonio_> fdoving: I think the solution would be a "details" clickable button for those who want to check out the command
[14:05] <Riddell> Tonio_: what's the question?
[14:05] <Tonio_> Riddell: do we want to always show the command to the user with kdesudo
[14:06] <Tonio_> Riddell: some commands are pretty ugly, like the dolphin's "run as root "
[14:06] <Riddell> Tonio_: I've always thought it a horrible security risk not to, but as you say gksudo doesn't and it's pretty ugly at times
[14:06] <Tonio_> Riddell: I suggest to put a "details" button with the command in it
[14:06] <Riddell> Tonio_: maybe you should ask kees for a justification for it to be hidden
[14:07] <Tonio_> Riddell: well the comprimise idea doesn't comprimise security, but doesn't show the command for all users everytime, I'd say
[14:08] <Riddell> Tonio_: yes, seems sensible
[14:08] <Tonio_> Riddell: most kdesudo problems will be fixed toonight, thanks for fdoving's suggestions for the code
[14:08] <Tonio_> Riddell: next will be finishing kio-apt
[14:10]  * Riddell hugs Tonio_ 
[14:17] <rexbron> hey everyone, I have some updated info on bug 173770. Would someone be able to take a look?
[14:17] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 173770 in kdelibs "kdelibs-data is un-uninstallable" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/173770
[14:17] <fdoving> Tonio_: how is it ugly? - very quoted?
[14:18] <Riddell> rexbron: gutsy or hardy?
[14:18] <rexbron> Riddell: Hardy
[14:18] <fdoving> Tonio_: i don't mind hiding the command. i belive gksu got this option to enable showing it. probably gconf-key thing.
[14:18] <rexbron> is there #kubuntu+1?
[14:19] <rexbron> lol, guess not
[14:20] <Hobbsee> rexbron: there is, adn we dont use it
[14:20] <rexbron> Riddell: I should also mention that it is kdelibs in Ubuntu
[14:22] <Tonio_> fdoving: every component of the command is quoted
[14:22] <fdoving> Tonio_: like: "some" "magic" "command" ?
[14:22] <Tonio_> yep
[14:22] <Tonio_> hard to read for the user
[14:23] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'll try to "pseudo hide" it, with a details button or something
[14:25] <Riddell> rexbron: just installed and removed kdelibs-data in a chroot, no problems at all
[14:25] <rexbron> wow weird
[14:26] <Riddell> I'm entirely out of ideas what could cause your problem
[14:26] <rexbron> I don't know what to do other than a reinstall
[14:26] <rexbron> as apt it completely borked
[14:26] <Riddell> mkdir /usr/share/icons/crystalsvg then apt-get remove?
[14:26] <rexbron> Apt tried to remove that package first, and since it fails, refuses to do anything else
[14:26] <rexbron> i'll give that a try
[14:27] <fdoving> Tonio_: hmm.. does kdesu quote like that? - or gksu?
[14:27] <rexbron> Riddell: <3 :D
[14:27] <Riddell> rexbron: the problem is the script /var/lib/dpkg/info/kdelibs-data.postrm
[14:27] <Riddell> so maybe it's an issue with update-icon-caches in hardy
[14:28] <fdoving> Tonio_: gksu tells you: The application 'bah' lets you modify essential parts of your system.
[14:28] <rexbron> Riddell: if that last message did not convey my meaning properly, it worked, thanks a lot
[14:29] <Riddell> rexbron: ah hah, I recreated it
[14:29] <Riddell> I wonder where that update-icon-caches script came from
[14:29] <Riddell> the kdelibs one
[14:29] <Riddell> rexbron: if I have gtk installed that brings in update-icon-caches and the problem appears
[14:29] <Riddell> so iz gtk bug :)
[14:30] <rexbron> time to reassign :P
[14:30] <Riddell> well maybe the kdelibs script is just not using it correctly
[14:31] <Riddell> hmm, no, that postinst is automatically created
[14:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: we already put the application name to the user, and the command
[14:31] <Tonio_> that, I'd like to get rid of in fact

[15:07] <Tonio_> Riddell: should work afterwards
[15:07] <Riddell> Tonio_: he did that, it failed to compile in a nasty way
[15:12] <Tonio_> Riddell: ah....
[15:29] <Tonio_> Riddell: just gotten the -k option to work with kdesudo, hehe :)
[15:29] <Tonio_> now kdesu -s will work as expected
[15:29] <Riddell> Tonio_: what does that do?
[15:29] <Tonio_> forget passwords
[15:29] <Tonio_> kdesu -s = sudo -k
[15:29] <Tonio_> Riddell: I remember you tried that one out, but it didn't work
[15:30] <Tonio_> Riddell: connect to pty makes it to work as expected
[15:30] <Tonio_> as well as using the user name in /var/run/sudo
[15:30] <dragon76> hey everyone
[15:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'll commit today, so that you can review the changes
[15:31] <Riddell> Tonio_: you got it to connect to a pty?
[15:31] <Riddell> hi dragon76
[15:32] <dragon76> has anyone else had trouble getting kdm to start using 2.6.24 in hardy?
[15:32] <Tonio_> Riddell: well just kprocess::setusepty seems to work
[15:32] <Riddell> Tonio_: doesn't it set a different pty for every use?
[15:32] <Tonio_> nope
[15:32] <Tonio_> well I didn't look
[15:32] <Riddell> hrm, I'm sure it did when I tried
[15:32] <Riddell> run kdesu twice and see if it remembers the password
[15:33] <Tonio_> it always sets the same pty from the same pty :)
[15:33] <Tonio_> means used with command line
[15:33] <Tonio_> Riddell: would be interesting to test with desktop files, let me check
[15:36] <Tonio_> Riddell: that works
[15:36] <Tonio_> Riddell: what is interesting is if once launched via desktop file I can empty the password cache using kdesu from the shell
[15:37] <Tonio_> if tat works it'd be perfect
[15:38] <Tonio_> Riddell: works as expected
[15:38] <Tonio_> Riddell: password is remembered as long as you run kdesu -s
[15:38] <Tonio_> ;)
[15:39] <Tonio_> hehe, don't ask me how I did, c++ is still a mystery for me, but as long as it works... ^_^
[15:39] <dragon76> has anyone tested 2.6.24 kernel in hardy???
[15:39] <Tonio_> Riddell: we may have to consider a security update for gutsy once tested
[15:40] <Riddell> dragon76: can't say I have actually
[15:41] <dragon76> kdm doesn't want to start... I don't need it but just wanting to help out developement with testing
[15:41] <dragon76> 2.6.22-14 is ok
[15:45] <bddebian> Heya
[15:45] <Riddell> dragon76: kdm or X?
[15:45] <dragon76> hello bddebian
[15:45] <bddebian> Hello dragon76
[15:46] <dragon76> hmmm.... can't say I remember... that was 3 this morning.... don't I feel stupid
[15:47] <dragon76> would I look in /var/log/messages for any pertinant info?
[15:48] <dragon76> I'll go poke around a bit and come back and report. Have to reboot into the other kernel... Anything I should check that would help out?
[15:50] <Riddell> dragon76: just try starting X on its own
[15:51] <dragon76> will do...
[16:11] <nixternal> oi oi

[16:56] <Riddell> ta da https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuTutorialsDay
[16:56] <fdoving> Tonio_: we should also make a manpage for kdesudo, bug 162823 can be confusing.

[16:57] <fdoving> and the diverting should also include the manpage.
[16:57] <fdoving> if that approach is still valid.
[16:58] <nixternal> so no documentation then I take it
[16:59] <Jucato> "branch your svn with bzr"? :D
[16:59] <Jucato> hi DaSkreech

[17:01] <nixternal> hrmm, I might be able to make it then especially if we do our finals for this class the following week
[17:01] <nixternal> we should be good to go then
[17:01] <Riddell> nixternal: well if you can't no problem, I can do it
[17:01] <nixternal> man, I have a lot of project work I gotta finish up
[17:13] <Tonio_> fdoving: there is a manpage
[17:13] <Tonio_> fdoving: but we should also divert the kdesu manpage
[17:13] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'm just reading at all the little bugs and fix them
[17:44] <mhb> good evening to all good folks out here
[17:44]  * DaSkreech waves
[17:44]  * Jucato waves goodnight
[17:45] <mhb> why are we doing this on Thursday?
[17:45] <mhb> tutorial day, that is
[17:46] <Jucato> lol!! I was wondering why Dec 13 was tuesday on my calendar :)
[17:46]  * Jucato was looking at november...
[17:47] <mhb> that is our Jucato
[17:47] <Jucato> :)
[17:47] <Jucato> bye :)
[17:48] <mhb> umm...
[17:48] <Jucato> Wed Dec  5 01:48:10 PHT 2007
[17:48] <Jucato> that cries "bed" :D
[17:48] <mhb> have I missed a new person in our midst?
[17:49] <nosrednaekim> c ya Jucato
[17:49] <nosrednaekim> who's that?
[17:49] <Riddell> mhb: the day was picked by Jono, seems as good as any
[17:49] <mhb> txwikinger
[17:49] <mhb> Riddell: not sure who we are aiming at, but audiences under 60 usually have their days filled with doing stuff
[17:50] <mhb> workdays
[17:50] <Riddell> people often have weekend filled too
[17:51] <mhb> oh sure, we cannot find a date for everyone, but my unproved theory states that statistically, people have more time on weekends
[17:52] <mhb> that is why we wanted meetings take place at weekends, because people have time
[17:53] <mhb> usually
[17:53] <mhb> meh, why do I care?
[17:53] <mhb> I wish you luck.
[17:54] <Riddell> you care because you're an elite kubuntu developer?
[17:54] <DaSkreech> nigh Jucato
[17:56] <mhb> Riddell: you are right, I better get back to work to earn that title :o)
[18:06] <mhb> Riddell: is d3lphin's source code actively put somewhere?
[18:06] <mhb> or should I fork it?
[18:06] <mhb> from apt-get source
[18:08] <mhb> hmm, forking it, I guess
[18:08] <nosrednaekim> mhb: fixing dolphin? cool
[18:09] <mhb> nosrednaekim: someone has to do it
[18:11] <mhb> nosrednaekim: fixing the KDE3 one
[18:12] <nosrednaekim> :)
[18:12] <nosrednaekim> you know c++?
[18:12] <coreymon77> me?
[18:12] <coreymon77> no
[18:12] <mhb> nosrednaekim: I know everything :o)
[18:13] <mhb> nosrednaekim: well, I know everything except for the thing that I know everything
[18:13] <nosrednaekim> hehe....
[18:13] <coreymon77> mhb: huh?
[18:13] <mhb> the day is never complete without a strange loop
[18:14] <coreymon77> mhb: you mean you know everything except for what you dont know?
[18:14] <coreymon77> cause in that case
[18:14] <coreymon77> i know everything too
[18:14] <coreymon77> :P
[18:19] <mhb> Imagine you are a person with just one year to live, and yet the ones you love really care about you and try to make you shine in your last days...
[18:20] <mhb> Then you know how my branch of D3lphin must feel
[18:20] <nosrednaekim> hehe
[18:20] <nosrednaekim> hey.... the kde4 dolphin is amazing..
[18:20] <nosrednaekim> if you can make the KDE3 one as good..
[18:21] <nosrednaekim> its'll be ayear well spent
[18:21] <nosrednaekim> *it'll be a year
[18:21] <DaSkreech> for the year it will be used :)
[18:21] <mhb> nosrednaekim: indeed, having a brother that will take all the glory while you rot on the scrapyard must be a bit depressing thought
[18:21] <nosrednaekim> hehe
[18:22] <mhb> on the other hand, I'm going to rot there too, in time
[18:22] <mhb> so let's get to work while I still can
[18:23] <coreymon77> d3lphin has quite a few bugs
[18:24] <coreymon77> im just hoping that the kde4 one will be better
[18:24] <coreymon77> gtg now
[18:30] <fdoving> mhb: are you putting the dolphin source in bzr on kubuntu-members or something like that ?
[18:31] <mhb> fdoving: you know me well
[18:31] <mhb> fdoving: let me just apply the debian patches to the code itself
[18:31] <mhb> and review them
[18:31] <mhb> then I'll put the code there
[18:31] <fdoving> great.
[18:32] <mhb> fdoving: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members/dolphin/hardy-fork will be the address
[18:32] <fdoving> nice, i'll fetch it when you've pushed.
[18:32] <Riddell> mhb: I don't think it's in revision control anywhere
[18:33] <mhb> Riddell: right, I'm putting it in LP
[18:37] <Riddell> mhb: good plan
[18:44] <mhb> pushed, should be available soonish
[18:53] <fdoving> mhb: will you push the debian directory too, to it's own place?
[19:00] <mhb> fdoving: I'll put it there, not sure if it'll work tho
[19:00] <mhb> I've branched the upstream package, not our debian one
[19:01] <fdoving> ok. but that doesn't matter, if we push our debian directory, maybe removing the patches, the result should be the same.
[19:05] <mhb> fdoving: pushed
[19:07] <fdoving> mhb: ah, you put it there. i was thinking about having a separate branch for the debian/ directory, like the other kde packages we have in bzr.
[19:12] <mhb> fdoving: do as you think
[19:12] <mhb> I'm fine with it
[19:13] <Riddell> I don't see any advantage in that
[19:14] <fdoving> well, now we will include everything in the orig.tar.gz, and make a native-package.
[19:14] <fdoving> if we convert to our lp as upstream.
[19:15] <Riddell> since we are upstream a native package would be fine
[19:16] <fdoving> ok. then it's fine.
[19:28] <mhb> let's fix bugs! :-)
[19:28] <Riddell> awooga!
[19:30] <mhb> especially Riddell
[19:31] <Nightrose> you wanna fix Riddell? :P
[19:31] <Riddell> mostly I create the bugs :)
[19:36] <mhb> yeah, he should fix more bugs than he does now
[19:49] <mhb> yay!
[19:49] <mhb> there are first tweaks in our D3lphin branch!
[19:50] <mhb> if you don't want to get me all pessimistic, better start fixing bugs in it, too!
[19:50] <mhb> :o)
[19:50] <mhb> especially people that promised such stuff at the meeting
[19:54] <fdoving> ah, you removed the adjust view properties dialog.
[19:55] <mhb> yeah, call me a fascist
[19:55] <fdoving> i was looking int o that crash, but i can't get a proper backtrace.. for some stupid reason.
[19:55] <fdoving> can't really see any good reason to keep it either, go for it.
[19:56] <mhb> I think you could bypass the crash by configuring it via the Configure Dolphin dialog
[19:56] <mhb> and I see no reason why the rest of the controls should stay elsewhere, so I removed it... I'll move the missing features into Configure soon
[19:56] <fdoving> ok, but it doesn't crash when doing the same things in configure?
[19:57] <mhb> AFAIK no
[20:00] <mhb> also, there's this beautiful desktop-effects-kde app I don't have time for...
[20:00] <mhb> :o)
[20:00] <mhb> come on, is the lack of volunteers really that big?
[20:01] <mhb> :o)
[20:01]  * mhb shuts up
[20:01] <fdoving> they all do packages, no c++ :)
[20:01] <fdoving> packages, docs, irc-support and other very important things.
[20:01] <fdoving> few becomes upstream for broken apps :)
[20:02] <fdoving> btw. i like the description for the dolphin project.
[20:04] <mhb> fdoving: thanks!
[20:05] <fdoving> mhb: as you're the project manager, give me a bug to fix plz.
[20:08] <mhb> bug 138274?
[20:08] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 138274 in dolphin "Dolphin does not remember view profile" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/138274
[20:09] <mhb> not really associated with a crash, so you don't have to debug much
[20:13] <fdoving> mhb: i can't even reproduce that bug.
[20:14] <fdoving> one has to tick the configure dolphin -> save view properties for each folder'
[20:14] <fdoving> after that it works for me.
[20:14] <fdoving> if you can confirm that, i'll close the bugreport
[20:14] <fdoving> I came to think of one thing.
[20:15] <fdoving> the issue -can- be that the users we're running dolphin as root with an old kdesudo and that setting set.
[20:15] <fdoving> then the root-dolphin would write its .dolphinview files to every folder, wouldn't it?
[20:15] <fdoving> that would be evil.
[20:15] <fdoving> we should force that setting to off, for root.
[20:17] <mhb> fdoving: I guess what the user meant is: when I select the view mode, I want to be able to view all folders with that mode, and also, I'd like that mode to be default on next startup
[20:18] <fdoving> select where?
[20:18] <mhb> without .dolphinviews everywhere
[20:18] <mhb> clicking on its icon, I guess
[20:18] <mhb> I don't think there should be a "default view mode"
[20:18] <fdoving> that would defeat the purpose of the settings.
[20:18] <mhb> it's not really intuitive
[20:19] <mhb> the one you currently have should be default until you select another one
[20:19] <mhb> unless and only unless you have toyed with the .dolphinview files
[20:19] <fdoving> hmm.. don't you want it to remember that you always want previews in your pictures folder?
[20:19] <fdoving> where does the .dolphinview files come from then?
[20:20] <mhb> fdoving: sure, that might be handy, but otherwise there should be no other default view mode
[20:21] <mhb> unless you ticked that box, your viewer should just remember the last view mode
[20:21] <fdoving> currently you set one default, for directories without the .dolphinview file, let's say the default is Preview, then once you enter a folder and hit the Icons button, it creates a .dolphinview file for that current folder and remembers that folders settings.
[20:21] <mhb> fdoving: right.
[20:22] <mhb> fdoving: I guess I'd remove the "default" one and instead remember what the last one I used was
[20:22] <mhb> so when I click preview, just stick to preview unless you enter a folder with a .dolphinview
[20:22] <fdoving> i do not agree.
[20:22] <mhb> and next time I launch d3lphin, open preview (unless I'm in a .dolphinview folder again)
[20:23] <mhb> fdoving: my user case: I want to see details, look around the UI, find the "Details" button, click it, click on a folder and I'm frustrated that it shows up with Icons
[20:24] <fdoving> then click details again :)
[20:24] <fdoving> it's easy, you just need to think on a folder-oriented way :)
[20:24] <fdoving> on/in
[20:24] <mhb> well, I like to see details unless I choose "Previews" again
[20:24] <mhb> so it's me-oriented
[20:25] <mhb> I don't think anyone else is using it now, though :o)
[20:25] <fdoving> think about it as tags for eatch directory.
[20:25] <mhb> every day I hear "apt-get uninstall dolphin" in here
[20:27] <mhb> well, I guess that's not the right bug for you
[20:28] <mhb> choose yourself, there's plenty where that one came from
[20:28] <mhb> and all fixes are welcome
[20:39] <fdoving> mhb: #152788 looks very evil.
[20:40] <mhb> bug 152788
[20:40] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 152788 in dolphin "Dolphin drag and drop targets wrong directory" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/152788
[20:41] <mhb> fdoving: if you can reproduce it, go for it
[20:41] <mhb> I haven't looked at it yet, but I guess I should
[20:42] <fdoving> i can reproduce it, i'll look into it.
[20:51] <Riddell> kubuntu-users really has gone mad https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kubuntu-users/2007-December/023247.html
[20:55] <mhb> you should convince the last sane folks to join development
[20:56] <mhb> or perhaps the least sane ones?
[20:56] <mhb> fixing bugs in software that has no future and is hated by all...
[20:56] <mhb> work for a nutjob alright
[20:58] <fdoving> i'm starting to see why the dolphin guys dropped dolphin3, and focused on dolphin4.
[20:59] <mhb> fdoving: marketing?
[20:59] <mhb> :o)
[20:59] <fdoving> it's basically nothing left from dolphin3 in dolphin4.
[21:01] <mhb> I've seen worse.
[21:02] <Riddell> apachelogger_: do you know if libcaptury, captury and capseo in debian are newer than ours?
[21:25] <mhb> sometimes I get the feeling that UI was never meant to be written in hand
[21:26] <mhb> any application not using default widgets get to be really big
[21:47] <jhutchins_lt> Is there a program like kickstart for kubuntu that lets you template an install on one machine then clone it to others?
[22:09] <txwikinger> mhb?
[22:09] <nosrednaekim> hey txwikinger....
[22:09] <txwikinger> hi nosrednaekim
[22:09] <Riddell> http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3125 tutorials day announced
[22:09] <nosrednaekim> txwikinger: he's probably asleep,its late over in chekslovakia
[22:10] <mhb> hey txwikinger
[22:10] <txwikinger> hi mhb
[22:10]  * nosrednaekim hides...
[22:10] <txwikinger> sorry... had to hold a lecture earlier.. just came back
[22:11] <Tonio_> Riddell: little kde question
[22:11] <mhb> nosrednaekim: oh sure, my country is post-communist, but what is yours? :o)
[22:11] <Tonio_> Riddell: how to make that you have to wait for a kmessagebox to be closed so that the program continues ?
[22:11] <nosrednaekim> mhb: pre dictatorship....
[22:11] <txwikinger> mhb communism comes in many forms ;)
[22:11] <Tonio_> Riddell: only seems to work with questions asking boxes right ?
[22:12] <Tonio_> Riddell: I need to do that with a KMessageBox::Error for example...
[22:12] <txwikinger> nosrednaekim: which country are you from/residing?
[22:12] <nosrednaekim> txwikinger: USA <_<
[22:13] <txwikinger> hey.. nice to meet you.. I lived in Texas for a long time
[22:13] <txwikinger> mhb: Did you want something particular when you pinged me?
[22:13] <mhb> txwikinger: sure, to meet you
[22:13] <mhb> txwikinger: not sure we've met
[22:14] <txwikinger> I am not sure either.. nice to meet you mhb
[22:14]  * nosrednaekim claps
[22:14] <Tonio_> fdoving: maybe you can help me on that point :)
[22:15] <txwikinger> I have been in Slovakia before... Bratislava
[22:15] <Tonio_> fdoving: last little bug in kdesudo to fix before commiting so I'd like that fixed today...
[22:15] <imbrandon> Tonio_: its needs to be modal
[22:16]  * txwikinger remembers a kdesudo bug he is trying to reproduce
[22:16] <txwikinger> Tonio_ do you have a bug number?
[22:17] <Tonio_> txwikinger: nope ;)
[22:17] <txwikinger> ok :)
[22:17] <Tonio_> txwikinger: what bug is that about ?
[22:17] <txwikinger> kdesudo give an error message that it can execute the command
[22:17] <txwikinger> I think it is on hardy, I could not reproduce on gutsy
[22:18] <Tonio_> imbrandon: not what I need in fact cause I need people to click ok before the program exists
[22:18] <txwikinger> I checked the installation on a chroot which worked fine
[22:18] <Tonio_> imbrandon: here it is modal because of parent window, which closes, and then I don't have time to see the box, there is my issue
[22:18] <Tonio_> txwikinger: fixed here
[22:19] <Tonio_> txwikinger: I rewrote all that part today
[22:19] <imbrandon> Tonio_: make it 0 iirc
[22:19] <imbrandon> Parameters:
[22:19] <Tonio_> imbrandon: so non-modal then ? ;)
[22:19] <imbrandon> parent	If parent is 0, then the message box becomes an application-global modal dialog box. If parent is a widget, the message box becomes modal relative to parent.
[22:19] <Tonio_> ahhhhhhhhhh true that !
[22:19] <mhb> txwikinger: how long do you hang around here?
[22:19] <mhb> txwikinger: and what are your plans for Hardy?
[22:20] <txwikinger> Tonio_: ok.. I will note that on the bug, could you ping me when the fix is available, that I can ask the reporter to check it out
[22:20]  * mhb is here for quite some time, and I can be quite active/stubborn when I want ... school's tough, though.
[22:21] <txwikinger> mhb: Slovakia? I was in Bratislava, I believe 1994
[22:21] <txwikinger> Did a job for the Telecom there.. Commencement of operation for one of their first long distance fibre routes
[22:22] <Tonio_> txwikinger: you can test in 2 minutes
[22:22] <Tonio_> txwikinger: btw the launchpad bug will be closed automatically when I upload
[22:22] <txwikinger> well, if it is referenced, right?
[22:22] <Tonio_> txwikinger: talking about switching to admin mode in kcontrol module maybe no ?
[22:23] <txwikinger> I have to get my HD in my test-desktop changed first.. Probably do that tomorrow evening
[22:23] <txwikinger> yes... Tonio_ I think that's it
[22:24] <Tonio_> txwikinger: that's the part I fixed today, works like a charm here
[22:24] <txwikinger> cool.. good work \o/
[22:24] <mhb> txwikinger: I'm from Czech Republic, to be exact
[22:24] <txwikinger> Well.. I am almost too mhb ;)

[22:28] <txwikinger> sorry to hear that.. why?
[22:28] <nosrednaekim> !helpersnack | Tonio_
[22:28] <ubotu> Tonio_: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[22:28] <fdoving> great work tonio_ :)
[22:28] <Tonio_> fdoving: thanks :)
[22:29] <Tonio_> fdoving: wait for the tests to say well done :)
[22:29] <fdoving> Tonio_: is it pushed?
[22:30] <Tonio_> fdoving: not yet, but I can sent you a debfile to test
[22:30] <Tonio_> fdoving: also the kdesu -s is now supported, using sudo -k in the first place, to remove the cached password
[22:30] <Tonio_> fdoving: that was a big problem we had with it
[22:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: just needs -t now for "almose" kdesu compatibility
[22:31] <fdoving> yep.
[22:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: I also consider playing with "nice" to make -d a non fake password
[22:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: shouldn't be hard to make that to work as expected
[22:31] <Tonio_> s/fake password/fake option
[22:31] <Tonio_> fdoving: but that's optional, probably for version 2.0 :)
[22:33] <fdoving> yep.
[22:33] <Tonio_> imbrandon: doesn't work either, this or 0 all give the same problem, program goes, exists and closes the popup
[22:33] <fdoving> ping me if you push within the next 30min or so.
[22:33] <Tonio_> fdoving: have an idea on that point ?
[22:33] <Tonio_> fdoving: I have a testing package
[22:33] <fdoving> i want the source :)
[22:33] <fdoving> from bzr as i have that setup already :)
[22:33] <Tonio_> fdoving: my only last bug is that when you type 3 bad passwords, you don't see the last window....
[22:33] <fdoving> or a patch to bzr.
[22:34] <Tonio_> fdoving: lemme push the code
[22:34] <fdoving> you need to wait for the window to close before exiting. a while loop or something like that.
[22:35] <Tonio_> fdoving: pushed
[22:35] <fdoving> updating.
[22:35] <Tonio_> fdoving: well I tried several things, but nothing worked as expecting
[22:35] <Tonio_> fdoving: I also cleaned a lot the code with useless variable and so on
[22:35] <mhb> txwikinger: so what do you do w.r.t kubuntu?
[22:36] <Tonio_> fdoving: if you can fix that last little problem, we can prepare a new public release of it
[22:36] <txwikinger> mhb: Well this and that
[22:36] <Tonio_> fdoving: while, ok, but what to check ? ;)
[22:36] <txwikinger> I am the point of kontakt for kubuntu-de.org
[22:36] <txwikinger> contact
[22:36] <fdoving> Tonio_: where is this kmessagebox?
[22:36] <Tonio_> the problem is just that the messagebox pops and exists immediately
[22:36] <Riddell> txwikinger: despite living in England :)
[22:36] <txwikinger> I am working at the moment to be a MOTU
[22:37] <txwikinger> Riddell: yes...
[22:37] <Riddell> txwikinger: where do you stay in England?
[22:37] <txwikinger> we have re-sturcture kubuntu-de.org to make it more in line with the ubuntu structure in general
[22:37] <Tonio_> fdoving: search for if (badpass<3) in kdesudo.cpp
[22:37] <txwikinger> and I am doing a lot of communication with the folks here
[22:37] <txwikinger> Riddell: In Birmingham
[22:38] <Tonio_> fdoving: the point is that sudo exits, and then the process ends, causing the program to stop
[22:38] <Riddell> well well, popular place
[22:38] <txwikinger> You kidding me :)
[22:38] <Tonio_> fdoving: previous behavior was not to quit kapp is there was an error, but that was quite nasty hack
[22:38] <Tonio_> fdoving: I prefer to close properly and find a way to make the program waits for the messagebox to be closed before going on...
[22:39] <Tonio_> fdoving: but...... I can't seem to find out how to do that
[22:39] <Riddell> txwikinger: my girlfriend is in tipton
[22:39] <txwikinger> Ah.. Isn't that between Bham and Wolverhampton?
[22:39] <Tonio_> Riddell: heard about the bugs with polyester ? quite problematic...
[22:39] <Riddell> Tonio_: don't think so
[22:39] <Tonio_> Riddell: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=147818
[22:39] <ubotu> KDE bug 147818 in general "Kate crashes when closing files" [Crash,Resolved: invalid]
[22:39] <Tonio_> Riddell: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/polyester/+bug/144429
[22:39] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 144429 in polyester "Crash of Kate when closing files, only using polyester style" [Undecided,Confirmed]
[22:40] <Tonio_> I can confirm this
[22:40] <fdoving> Tonio_: you need to have some bool that says there is a box, then check if that bool is true/false on exit, if it's not, wait til it gets the right state.
[22:40] <Riddell> txwikinger: yes
[22:40] <txwikinger> Yes.. I lecture sometimes in Wolverhampton
[22:40] <Tonio_> fdoving: yes but when to change the bool state since the program continues ?
[22:40] <txwikinger> I remember driving by there
[22:41] <Riddell> txwikinger: drive fast is the best way :)
[22:41] <Tonio_> fdoving: I read the kmessagebox class reference without success
[22:41] <txwikinger> Riddell: well I am German .....
[22:41] <Tonio_> fdoving: the only option I have is to use a questionyesno, and despite the response, give the same result, that causes the program to stop
[22:41] <fdoving> Tonio_: is this a problem for all the errors ?`
[22:41] <Tonio_> fdoving: but that's quite nasty
[22:41] <Tonio_> fdoving: nope
[22:42] <Tonio_> fdoving: the only case when sudo exits and you get an error is when you have 3 bad passwords
[22:42] <Tonio_> fdoving: but of course, depending the error, that can happen for other errors too
[22:43] <Tonio_> fdoving: I have a tweak for this, just do as before
[22:43] <Tonio_> but that causes the program not to close properly
[22:43] <Riddell> Tonio_: I didn't even know kate had a tabs extension
[22:43] <Tonio_> don't kapp->exit if bla=false
[22:43] <|dthacker|> Hi. should I submit formal test reports for the alpha or just throw it on the Alpha wiki page?
[22:43] <Tonio_> and set the variable depending this
[22:44] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: a pyKDE4 tutorial?
[22:44] <Tonio_> fdoving: I can switch back to old behavior waiting to find better solution
[22:44] <Tonio_> not superb way to do, but working and non risky
[22:45] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: I hope so, although sime hasn't replied yet
[22:45] <Tonio_> fdoving: is there a way with kapp to check if child window are still opened ?
[22:45] <Tonio_> fdoving: that would be a solution
[22:45] <Riddell> stdin: could you upload your python-kde4 package to your ppa for gutsy and hardy?
[22:45] <nosrednaekim> Riddell: i'll try to attend that for sure,the problem is, where do you get pyKDE4 from?
[22:46] <stdin> Riddell: I can for hardy, but it won't work for gutsy
[22:46] <Riddell> stdin: oh?  why not?
[22:46] <Riddell> nosrednaekim: stdin packaged it the other day, what a guy eh
[22:46] <fdoving> Tonio_: maybe http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qapplication.html#lastWindowClosed
[22:47] <fdoving> or not..
[22:47] <nosrednaekim> stdin: so it found its way off your to-do list for your to-do list, onto your to-do list, and then got done in a couple days? amazing XD
[22:47] <stdin> Riddell: needs sip4 (>= 4.7.1)  and gutsy has 4.7
[22:47] <Riddell> stdin: hmm, can we backport that?
[22:48] <stdin> nosrednaekim: 3 days actually, in a "sudo pbuilder --login" chroot :p
[22:48] <Tonio_> fdoving: looking ;)
[22:48] <nosrednaekim> stdin: hehe.... thanks alot! though I am on gutsy :(
[22:48] <stdin> Riddell: I haven't tried building it in gutsy yet, spent the time just getting it to build in hardy
[22:49]  * stdin try's to build it in gutsy
[22:50] <Tonio_> fdoving: won't work as the program sometimes doesn't have any window opened :)
[22:50] <Tonio_> fdoving: nice attempt, but wil not work
[22:55] <fdoving> Tonio_: i liked the previous way, what is the problem with it?
[22:56] <fdoving> Tonio_: the rest of the app in general is more nasty than that part, really.
[22:56] <Tonio_> fdoving: doesn't close properly when there is an issue
[22:56] <Tonio_> fdoving: not nice using from cmdline
[22:56] <Tonio_> btw, but that horrible I admit
[22:57] <Tonio_> fdoving: another option is to detach the program
[22:57] <fdoving> doesn't close properly, like when?
[22:57] <Tonio_> fdoving: when typing 3 bad passwords
[22:57] <Tonio_> fdoving: with the old way you have to ctrl+C to go back to the prompt
[22:58] <fdoving> isn't that what 3 bad passwords are for? - lock up everything and force you to do something drastic?
[23:01] <fdoving> Tonio_: at least you need something like the bError bool.
[23:02] <fdoving> then you need to set it to true/false based on the happenings.
[23:04] <stdin> Riddell: looks like it should backport without a problem, I'll upload it to my PPA along with python-kde4
[23:04] <Riddell> stdin: great
[23:04] <nosrednaekim> stdin: can I grab it? is it "safe"?
[23:05] <stdin> "safe", such an interesting word :P
[23:05] <nosrednaekim> hehe
[23:06] <Tonio_> fdoving: I think so
[23:06] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'll probably switch back to old code on that point, and detach the process
[23:07] <nosrednaekim> stdin: is this for the RC1?
[23:07] <imbrandon> rc1?
[23:08] <stdin> it's pykde4 from svn on saturday
[23:08] <nosrednaekim> stdin: will it work with RC1?
[23:08] <nosrednaekim> of KDE4
[23:09] <stdin> maybe :) I've only just installed hardy and haven't tried it
[23:09] <stdin> I haven't even built it in gutsy yet
[23:09] <nosrednaekim> ok.... I'll give it a shot
[23:09] <stdin> and I'll leave that to the PPA buildd's, as I don't want to wait 3 hours to see if it works here
[23:10] <Riddell> txwikinger: did you confirm that 16:00 UTC was good for you?
[23:11] <txwikinger> Riddell: I did not confirm, but it is ok with me
[23:11] <txwikinger> Just saw it when you posted the link here
[23:11] <Riddell> txwikinger: great
[23:20] <stdin> all uploaded
[23:24] <Tonio_> fdoving: found the solution ;)
[23:25] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'm adding support for "nice" and I'm done for the moment
[23:32] <Riddell> nixternal: able to do a fridge story about http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3125 ?
[23:32] <nixternal> depends on how much money you have for me? :)
[23:32] <nixternal> will get that started sir
[23:33] <fdoving> Tonio_: the try again password error can be removed, as it's just annoying anyway.
[23:34] <fdoving> Tonio_: one error after 3 attempts is OK.
[23:34] <Tonio_> fdoving: hum true, doing this
[23:35] <Tonio_> fdoving: I'm wondering how kdesu does the priority convertion with nice
[23:35] <Tonio_> fdoving: kdesu goes from 0 to 100 when nice goes from -20 to 19
[23:38] <fdoving> Tonio_: i need to go, i'll have a closer look at your changes tomorrow if you push your changes.
[23:38] <fdoving> nite.
[23:38] <Tonio_> fdoving: seya ;)
[23:38] <Tonio_> fdoving: thanks for the help !
[23:59] <mhb> good night and may the christmas be with you
