slangaseksuperm1: so I think my time today is pretty much booked; I would suggest trying to grab an archive admin over the weekend (maybe me again)00:01
superm1slangasek, i wasn't too sure about anyone sticking around for the weekend so i was going to try to ask before end of work day.  thanks, i'll keep my eyes peeled00:01
slangasekstgraber: is there a reasonable way to locate test results for previous isos?00:04
stgraberslangasek: no, archives are still broken :(00:05
slangasekstgraber: I don't see any tests for the current xubuntu or ubuntustudio yet; if there were some for the previous iteration, we could probably run with it00:05
slangasekhmm, ok00:05
stgraberI don't think those were tested (at least ubuntustudio, not sure for Xubuntu)00:05
stgraberthe order of testing for the day was like : Ubuntu, Edubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, UbuntuStudio (Kubuntu had a lot of testing yesterday)00:06
slangasekTheMuso, joejaxx, persia, _MMA_: around?  anyone able to test ubuntustudio images so we can bless the alpha?00:07
_MMA_Sure.00:07
stgraberslangasek: I tried some keyword on LP and wasn't able to find a bug number for the icon thing on the livecd (or I'm just bad at searching on LP)00:07
_MMA_What image? link?00:07
* persia hunts qa.ubuntu.com00:08
stgraberhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntustudio/daily/20080201/00:08
slangasekthat one, yes :)00:08
* _MMA_ downloads.00:08
persia_MMA_: Which arch are you taking?00:08
Riddelldoesn't ubuntu i368 desktop need testing too?00:09
_MMA_persia: i38600:09
stgraberRiddell: doing it00:09
stgraberwell, it's actually installed, just need to reboot and test the desktop00:09
_MMA_persia: AMD64 would be hard to do this very second. Would require more time.00:10
persia_MMA_: I'm grabbing it now.00:10
_MMA_persia: AMD64?00:10
persia_MMA_: Yes.00:11
_MMA_Cool.00:11
persia(needs another 4 minutes to finish the download)00:11
stgraberWho are the Xubuntu guys ? It would be good to have Xubuntu tested too00:11
_MMA_somerville32: ping ^^^00:11
stgraberslangasek: Do you want to file the device shown on desktop bug or can I ? the next question being against what ? nautilus ?00:14
slangasekstgraber: please go ahead; yes, nautilus seems a good starting point00:15
slangaseksomerville32, stgraber: I'm trying to grab the xubuntu amd64 desktop for a test, but it'll be a while on the download00:19

_MMA_slangasek: It will be about 60 mins or so 'till I can bless the disk as our full install is pretty big.00:45

stgraberslangasek: after reboot I have no oem-config installed00:53
slangasekstgraber: hmm, ok.  also not a blocker00:53
slangaseksomerville32: mm, booting xubuntu amd64 desktop gives me a blank desktop screen, please advise00:54
stgraberslangasek: it didn't ask for a password although I have set one and just auto-logged in00:55
* joejaxx pokes wget to move more bytes faster00:55
stgraberslangasek: what package is the best for OEM install bugs ? oem-config, ubiquity ?00:56
stgraberslangasek: as oem-config isn't installed I would bet on ubiquity but I'm not sure of how that stuff works :)00:56
slangasekstgraber: I guess assigning it to either is fine00:56
stgraberevand: ^^00:58
evandoem-config00:59
stgraberCan anyone do an auto-resize test ? According to http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/testcases we don't have any single result for it01:09
_MMA_stgraber: I can help tomorrow. Though, that might be too late. :(01:10
_MMA_slangasek: Im still here. @ 65% now. If this installs just push both Ubuntu Studio disks. I should know in 25 mins.01:28
slangasekok01:28
slangaseksuperm1: can you advise on the fact that xubuntu desktop ISO gives me a blank screen on amd64?  I'm inclined to push the alpha out with just alternates for xubuntu, if that's alright with you01:30
slangasek(and if the alternates work better, which I'm still in the process of downloading to verify)01:31
superm1slangasek, i dont have an amd64 unfortunately01:31
superm1so i wouldn't be able to test01:31
slangasekok. has xubuntu desktop been tested on i386?01:31
superm1i was assuming somerville32 was doing the testing on it (i've been away from the project for some time)01:31
slangasekmm, ok01:32
slangasekoh, sigh01:43
slangaseksuperm1, somerville32: libxine1-ffmpeg: Depends: libavcodec1d (>= 0ecvs20070307) but it is not installable01:44
superm1slangasek, on what source package was this?01:44
_MMA_slangasek: Is tomorrow (east-cost of the states here) too late for your testing? I can easily do any i386 testing.01:44
slangaseksomerville32: sorry, we can try to roll out a xubuntu alpha after the weekend if you guys can get this fixed01:44
slangaseksuperm1: not a source package, that's the xubuntu alternate install01:45
superm1slangasek, so a broken seed then?01:45
slangasek_MMA_: yes, I want to pull the trigger on this when your 25 minute counter is up :)01:45
slangaseksuperm1: well, libxine1-ffmpeg appears to be uninstallable, perhaps it needs a rebuild or something01:45
_MMA_slangasek: On Ubuntu Studio sure. Im talking about other testing.01:46
_MMA_Other disks.01:46
_MMA_(97% cleaning up)01:46
superm1slangasek, well that's odd since it's installable locally01:47
slangasek_MMA_: oh, well, additional testing and feedback is welcome of course01:47
slangasek_MMA_: but at that point it will no longer factor into the decision to release :)01:47
_MMA_slangasek: I see.01:47
_MMA_Ill hop on -testing tomorrow.01:48

jmIf upstream seems uninterested in a patch, should I try to get it into the -ubuntuX patchset, or are those patches reserved for special Ubuntu-only compatibility things?20:49
ScottK2They are not reserved for that, but if upstream is uninterested, we'd have to be convinced it was worth the long term extra maintenance burden.20:50
jmSo the patches would have to be for something important, then? I'm trying to add support for embedded cover art to Rhythmbox/GStreamer, but patches in bugzilla have gone unreviewed and mails to the lists unanswered.20:52
=== Kopfgeldjaeger is now known as KGJ|will_nen_eee
ScottK2It depends.  For a package that already has an Ubuntu diff, the barrier is lower.21:01
* ScottK2 is a Kubuntu person, so I've really no opinion on gstreamer21:02
pochuOur gstreamer packages are almost in sync with Debian21:04
pochuWe have a small diff in debian/rules in all of them, which will be sorted out soon using lsb_release so we can sync them.21:05
pochujm: will the patches land in gstreamer and rhythmbox, or only rhythmbox?21:05
ScottK2jm: Which means Debian is probably your best entry point.21:06
jmBoth21:06
jmGstreamer patches are for creating the "image" tag for FLAC and Ogg/Vorbis files21:06
jmRhythmbox patch is for detecting "image" tag, and storing it as metadata.21:06
pochujm: if they got unanswered upstream, perhpaps it's a matter of resources instead of they don't wanting the patches.21:06
pochujm: have you tried #gstreamer and #rhythmbox on GimpNet?21:07
pochuPerhaps you find someone to review the patches there21:07
jmYes, am in them now, but I've asked for devs to take a look and there's been no response.21:07
jmBest response was a dev assigning the Ogg/Vorbis patch, but since the latest -base was just released a few days ago I'm guessing it wouldn't be in a stable release in time for Hardy.21:08
pochuUnless it's committed to the 0.10.17 branch, I don't think so21:09
jmShould I put my patches up on Launchpad with a debdiff? I don't mind if they get rejected, as long as somebody actually sees them.21:10
pochuFor the gstreamer one, ask slomo when he's around.21:11
pochuRhythmbox one, wait to see if the gstreamer one is accepted, I'd say ;)21:11
