RiddellScottK2: the trouble with a proper backport is it takes too long10:47
Riddellthe low priority means it can take day for something to compile, when you have a dozen packages to compile it takes a long time and if there's any problems it all falls apart10:48
SXanIs this why KDE 4.0 isn't being backported to Feisty?  It is a pretty large chunk of software.10:49
RiddellSXan: it could be done in the PPA same as gutsy, but mostly there isn't the demand, if you want the newest KDE changes are you're on the newest distro release10:52
SXanYeah, that's not an option for me.  Gutsy breaks my laptop.10:56
SXanWell, I should say that I lose a lot of functionality that I need when I boot into Gutsy.10:57

* Riddell makes it so11:09
RiddellSXan: if you want to do the feisty backport that would be welcome but I havn't heard anyone else ask for it so far11:10
SXanI may try that.  Is there a standard place to ask for things like this?11:12
Riddellhere :)11:12
SXanAh.  I posted a thread to Kubuntu Feisty Software forums a couple of months ago asking about a KDE4 backport; it's gotten something like 123 views, so I suspect that there's *some* interest ;-).11:14
RiddellSXan: create a PPA for yourself, upload the libs and base packages and if it all works I can give you access to the kubuntu kde 4 PPA11:15
SXanOk.  I'll give it a try.  What's the load for maintaining a package like?11:15
SXanI used to do this sort of thing for Gentoo, but it was pretty time consuming.11:16
jpatrickSXan: well, the packages already exist, you just have to make sure they build in feisty11:19
Riddellmostly you can get away with making sure they start to build then throw it into the PPA11:19

ArtimusHas anyone considered a KDE ufw frontend for Hardy?  It seems like it would fit rather well in systemsettings.  I was messing around with KDevelop, it looks like it wouldn't take too much: http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/8100/kufwmockupud3.png15:56
ScottKArtimus: We are past feature freeze for Hardy, so it's a bit late, but it sounds to me like an excellent idea for Hardy +1.15:59
ArtimusScottK: Oh, ok.  Wasn't sure on the timeline.16:00
ArtimusUnfortunately, I think the plan is to rewrite ufw to be a PF clone for hardy+116:00
ScottK2Ah.16:01
ScottK2If you act fast, you could get it into Hardy +1 and then into hardy-backports.16:01
ArtimusI thought hardy-backports would only accept packages already in hardy16:02
Artimus(just newer versions)16:02
ScottK2Not at all.  New packages get backported all the time.  They are actually among the safest backports because regression risk is zero.16:03
ArtimusHow much time would that give me?  I can't seem to pull up a development timeline...16:06
ScottK2The archives for the new release usually open two or three weeks after release, so you could upload to Hardy +1 in mid May.16:08
ScottK2Artimus: A KDE4/QT4 solution would be preferred at this point.  KDE4 will be the default KDE for new Hardy installs as I understand it.16:09
ArtimusYeah, I thought about that...16:09
ArtimusAnd I'm sure Hardy+1 is also going to be mainly KDE4...16:10
ScottK2Even more so.16:10
ScottK2Gotta run.  Good luck with it.16:11
Artimusthanks.16:11
ScottK2Also, you'll want to write a spec for it for Hardy +1 when the time comes so it's officially on the list.16:11
ArtimusSure16:11

Tonio_hi there22:34
ScottKHi there Tonio_.22:35
ScottKTonio_: Do you have a moment for a klamav discussion?22:35
Tonio_sure22:36
=== smarter_ is now known as smarter
ScottKTonio_: In klamav 0.42, upstream removed klamd and gave up on on access scanning, but left the U/I for it (not working).  It seems reasonable to me that we ought to patch the program not to provide U/I for functions that no longer exist.  Does that sound right?22:37
Tonio_of course22:38
Tonio_well I previously released a patch for this right ?22:38
ScottKTonio_: Also, looking at the Debian Klamav package, the one thing they have that we don't is a patch to use the system virus database instead of a per user one.  I think that makes sense to include in our package too.22:38
Tonio_we just have to rewrite this one I guess22:38
ScottKTonio_: No, you did a patch to remove the update functionality.22:38
ScottKTonio_: I can probably do it, just wanted to run it by you first.22:39
ScottKTonio_: I'll ping you if I get stuck.22:39
Tonio_hum right, the klamd thing was still there22:39
Tonio_ScottK of course, please ping me if you need help :)22:39
crimsun_Tonio_: what sort of mactel audio issue did you mention previously?  Has the kernel team ACKed any action?22:39
Tonio_crimsun_: I didn't ping them yet22:40
Tonio_crimsun_: basically, we investigated a patch together for feisty, and that patch was removed for gutsy22:40
Tonio_crimsun_: I can write the patch again, but I have to take a moment to ping the kernel team on that point22:40
Tonio_crimsun_: I'll send an email today with the patch and you in CC22:42
Tonio_ScottK I agree on the system virus database thing22:42
Tonio_ScottK I thought it was handled by klamav as long as the per user one doesn't exist22:43
Tonio_ScottK am I wrong on that point ?22:43
crimsun_Tonio_: ok, thanks.  I don't have access to e-mail, but I'll read the Web archive.22:43
ScottKTonio_: No.  The first run wizard defaults to a per user one, so unless you change it to the system one, you get a per user one on first run.22:43
Tonio_crimsun_: did you loose your access to ubuntu/launchpad/ML ?22:44
Tonio_ScottK, ah oki22:44
crimsun_Tonio_: no, I'm traveling.22:44
Tonio_ScottK I didn't work on klamav for a long time now, and since I don't use it anymore, I'm a bit lost :) sorry for this22:44
Tonio_crimsun_: ah ;)22:44
Tonio_crimsun_: okay, sorry for the question, bt it looked strange to me ;)22:45
ScottKTonio_: No problem.  If you'd rather I just dealt with it, I can, I just check with you because it's originally your package.22:45
Tonio_ScottK sure ;)22:46
claydohA quick question, if I may :)22:46
Tonio_ScottK but you are free to make your own decision now !22:46
Tonio_claydoh: fire away :)22:46
claydohkde4 and Feisty: no go due to needed dependencies, correct?22:46
Tonio_crimsun_: just grabbing the feisty kernel source to get the patch for alsa and macbook22:47
claydohas the alphas, etc were in feisty, have a forum poster wondering why no kde4 for Feisty22:47
claydohyou'd basically have to update enough libraies, etc to be running Gutsy22:47
ScottKTonio_: OK.  Thanks.22:48
* ScottK will ping if I get stucj.22:48
ScottKstucj/stuck22:48
Tonio_claydoh: maintaining kde4 is a lot of work, and due to feisty not beeing lts, it is probably better not maintaining it atm22:49
Tonio_claydoh: especially since kde4 isn't quite usable daily long yet22:49
Tonio_claydoh: better keeping the effort arround hardy atm :)22:49
claydohok good enough reson for me, just trying to correctly respond22:49
Tonio_claydoh: sure :)22:50
Tonio_claydoh: also the userbase if feisty is pretty limited, due to not beeing LTS, most feisty users have gone gutsy now22:50
claydohthanks Tonio_22:50
Tonio_claydoh: you're welcome22:50
Tonio_crimsun_: the patch needs rewrite since the codebase changed a lot23:00
Tonio_crimsun_: mind reviewing the patch after I finished writing it ?23:00
crimsun_sure, just ping me with a pastebin URL23:00
Tonio_crimsun_: yep :)23:00
crimsun_I'm away for a bit to locate another coffee shop.23:01
Tonio_crimsun_: I must say I can't write it myself....... way to complicated for me23:11
Tonio_crimsun_: I can do but only with your help, as I know the pin_configs to add23:11
Tonio_in fact one of them is to be modified, but I don't know how to identify my machine in the list of machines23:13
Tonio_s/machines/identifiers23:13

Nightroseclaydoh: forgot his nick though23:14
Nightroseseemed like he will try to backport23:14

Tonio_apachelogger: :'(23:50
Tonio_I hope they'll consider a from scratch rewrite in the future.... really23:50
apacheloggerTonio_: "they" is actually much of a "he". IMHO none else within KDE really cares about KDM as long as it "works"23:51
Tonio_apachelogger: that's a big problem imho23:52
