seb128hey pitti10:17
* pitti hugs seb128, bonjour10:17
seb128pitti: dunno if you read about it yesterday but the no duplicate battery patch is creating issues10:17
* seb128 hugs pitti10:17
Keybukpitti: mine are still anti-aliased10:18
seb128pitti: like backlight control not displaying the popup dialog correctly and lagging, the battery icon being displayed when plugged on ac, etc10:18
Keybuk(having just started a new app to check)10:18
Keybukcould you have a gnome-settings-daemon failure maybe?10:18
pittiKeybuk: mine were as well, until I cleaned up my configuration this morning10:18

pittiKeybuk: can you try with a fresh profile? doesn't work for me with one10:20
Keybuksure10:20
Keybukbut not right now10:20
pittiseb128: ugh, all just because we ignore batteries in /proc now?10:21
seb128pitti: yes10:21
pittiseb128: I heard about some issues with displaying wrong charge, etc.10:21
seb128pitti: does you d430 work correctly?10:21
pittiso maybe the ones in /proc are right, and in /sys are wrong10:21
pittiseb128: let me check; there are no obvious bugs, bug I don't change brightness often, etc.10:22
* pitti resumes his laptop10:22
seb128pitti: well, you would have noticed if the battery icon was displayed while plugged ;-)10:22
pittiseb128: I think I configured it that way10:22
pittiI want the icon whenever there is a battery10:23
seb128ok10:23
seb128try changing the backlight there10:23
seb128what it does on my laptop is to display the popup some seconds later and scrambled10:23
pittiok, booted, running on battery10:24
pittihm, now after resuming I don't have a g-p-m icon at all10:24
pittibut it's running10:24
pittibrightness changing works, but no popup window10:24
pittidarn, this morning I still had an icon which worked10:24

Keybukstill has anti-aliasing10:25
pittiKeybuk: weird; thanks for trying10:26
Keybukthe hinting is reduced to Medium by default, but it's still aliased10:26
seb128pitti: I confirmed that dropping the double battery patch fixes the issues10:26
pittiah, how I have by battery icon back10:27
ion_How about we implement a convolution filter to freetype that blurs all rendered text with e.g. a 3×3 kernel? That would be even nicer default.10:27
mjg59seb128: Are you restarting g-p-m after restarting hal? (or rebooting entirely)10:27
pittiion_: 3x3? that would make them entirely unreadable :10:27
seb128mjg59: I rebooted several time a day and it's always broken10:27
pittiseb128: confirming the scrambled brightness popup10:27
ion_pitti: Yeah, isn’t that the direction we’re going? :-)10:27
seb128mjg59: I also tried to start gpm in verbose mode after the session10:28
seb128mjg59: gpm is always screwed, the log shows it fails to get the backlight value, etc10:28
pittiseb128: hm, if it's that broken, maybe we should reverse the patch to *only* consider batteries in /proc?10:28
pittimjg59: ^ WDYT?10:28
mjg59pitti: I can't see any way that it could cause the backlight issues10:29
seb128gpm is all screwed dunno why10:29
pittineither can I, seems like hal/g-p-m misinterpreting /sys or so10:29
pittibut *shrug*10:29
seb128the log has dbus timeout errors when getting to get the backlight10:29
mjg59g-p-m never touches stuff directly - it just cares about what hal provides10:30

seb128the hal log has that when pressing the keys to change backlight10:35
mjg59Especially if you're using addon-dell-backlight10:35
mjg59Which we probably shouldn't be on any hardware supporting the acpi backlight interface, but still10:36
zdzichuBGis sysfs battery interface pollable? on my thinkpad, sysfs battery level is updated maybe once per hour. this was really visible when g-p-m displayed two batteries (proc and sysfs one) -- proc battery would discharge normally, while sysfs would show 99% just to suddenly jump to 30% after some time10:37
seb128mjg59: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5085/ that's the gnome-power-manager log10:38

seb128mjg59: might be a side effect10:40
zdzichuBGpitti: I will check that in the evening, after work10:41
seb128could be that the new battery doesn't have enough informations and gpm gets confused when some things are lacking?10:41

Ngwhile I'm here, can I get apport to catch network-admin segfaults? it doesn't seem to be atm (in hardy)10:46
pittihm, it uses policykit and thus declares itself as not dumpable10:47
pittithat's normally a safety precaution which prevents your password from getting into core dumps and other processes ptrace()ing it to steal it10:47
* Fujitsu 's battery is always discharging and either full or 5%.10:47

pittiNg: I don't see how we can easily have both ATM10:48
pitticurrent kernel does not allow us to disable ptrace() and still keep core dumping10:48

\shdoko: tomcat5.5 is not installable without a jdk...it suggests java-virtual-machine, but I have at least one installed...what do you think is the best way to fix this issue?12:08
doko\sh: hmm, why does a suggests hinders you installing the package?12:09
\shdoko: it should default to a free one, imho :)12:10
pittiseb128: so at least 1.1.4 -> 1.1.20 is bugfix only12:10
pittiso is 1.1.3 -> 1.1.412:11
\shdoko: e.g. icedtea-java7-jdk (if this is resonable and works with tomcat)12:11
doko\sh: just remove the suggests12:14
pittilool: dbus 1.1.20-1 seems released in alioth svn, but not uploaded yet; do you know when this is planned to happen?12:21
Lurepitti: dbus 1.1.20 is unstable release of 1.2 version, why do you want it?12:22
Lurepitti: will it get in hardy?12:22
pittiLure: seb128 and slomo asked for it above12:22
pittiLure: 1.1.2 -> 1.1.3 was the really heavy release12:23
pittiLure: 1.1.3-> 1.1.4 and 1.1.4 -> 1.1.20 are just small bug fixes12:23
pitti1.1.20 primarily has the security bug fix)12:23
\shdoko: the problem is, that "java-virtual-machine" is a wrong suggests...it needs a jdk and all packages providing java-virtual-machine are Runtime packages (JREs)12:24
loolpitti: I tried getting some testers for the update-rc.d changes, but didn't so far; I don't know about the new upstream12:24
Lurepitti: ok, seen now original msg about security fix12:24
pittilool: this was changed to forcefully remove previous symlinks on upgrade, right?12:24
loolpitti: If you like, you're welcome to try it out -- I personally didn't try the new upstream part12:24
loolpitti: Correct, to work with insserv and file-rc12:24
pittilool: while this is not generally good practice, I think it does help a lot in our case12:25

pittiand it's primarily due to shuffled rc priorities12:25
\shdoko: javac is needed12:25
pittiso I'd love to merge this into hardy to fix it for all upgrades12:25
doko\sh: why can't you fix it?12:25
loolpitti: In general, the update-alternatives "symlink data is your configuration" approach doesn't scale   :-/12:26
pittilool: I'm currently reading the upstream changelog - tons of bug fixes and two or three new features12:26
\shdoko: well, the fix is to remove the suggests and do something helping the user...actually, when I Recommend or Depend on a jdk, it needs to be a free one, and this means, disabling the security manager from tomcat (this works only with the sun jdk)12:27
loolpitti: I see mbiebl tunned the update-rc.d snippet to hide output, so he probably tested it12:27
\shdoko: all documented in README.Debian of tomcat5.5 ;)12:27
loolIt's hard to catch mbiebl on IRC these days, I'll drop him an email now12:27
pittilool: I'm happy to test it here, too12:28
loolAs you please12:28
doko\sh: so then why do you ask? soren may be interested in tomcat12:28
pittilool: I'll prepare a merge anyway and test it locally; even if we don't get it into hardy for some reason we can still use it for intrepid12:28
\shdoko: because you are my java pkg hero :)12:28
pittilool: since due to your excellent merging into Debian the remaining Ubuntu delta should be small12:28
loolpitti: Let me know if you need me to work on merging back additional stuff into pkg-utopia, I'm happy to act as a proxy and lower our delta12:29
\shdoko: I'll discuss it with the server guys12:30
pittilool: for proper merging I'd just like to have the Debian source package for 1.1.20-112:31
loolpitti: You mean an uploaded one?  I can hand you a svn-buildpackage --svn-exported one if you like12:32
pittilool: the latter would suffice, I think12:32
pittiwe still have a delta, so precise md5sum match of diff.gz doesn't matter12:33
pittiI'd just like to use the same orig.tar.gz12:33
loolpitti: We use tarballs from http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus/ AFAIK12:33
pittiah, great12:33
loolpitti: But the diff might still change since mbiebl didn't confirm he finished12:34
pittiah, I seee12:34
loolHe released, but then he might still change it again12:34
pittilool: ok, then I'll just use your export for an initial merge12:34
pittilool: and for the FF exception request12:35
loolpitti: http://people.dooz.org/~lool/debian/dbus/1.1.20-1/sid/12:35
pittilool: our Ubuntu delta won't change with some further small fixes from mbiebl12:35
loolIs an export12:35
pittilool: merci12:35
loolpitti: Do I understand correctly that lang-o-matic works with the Packages file and regexps on gtk / qt / kde to sort translations into langpacks?12:40
pittilool: more or less, yes12:41
loolpitti: Intuitively I thought it would look at seeds12:41
pittilool: it uses the dependencies as initial heuristics, which works for about 98% of packages12:41
pittilool: and it has an override list so that we can manually move misdetected packages into the right category12:41
loolpitti: Is it possible to have multiple langpacks ship the same translations?12:41
pittilool: they would conflict to each other12:41
loolpitti: One thing where it might fail is with a mobile langpack -- most things are gtk-ish already, and sometimes not easy to distinguish12:42
pittilool: if a translation is relevant for both gnome and kde (like libxine) it lands in the neural langpack12:42
pittineutral12:42
pittilool: i. e. language-pack-fr instead of language-pack-{gnome,kde}-fr12:42
loolpitti: Ok; that's how I understood it12:42
pittilool: if those are only a few, we can override them manually, but IMHO it would be better to have a heuristics first12:42
lool(what's called the default or standard langpack on the translationprocess wiki)12:42
pittilike, a dependency to libhildon or something12:43
loolTranslationLifecycle rather12:43
pittiright12:43
pittiI don't have a really good name for that 'default' category12:43
pitti'main' is misleading (component) and 'base' too (due to the -base/update pkg split)12:43
loolI would have called it base, but then this conflicts with the base/update langpacks  :-/12:43
loolYep12:43
pittisnap :)12:43
pitti'common' maybe12:44
loolpitti: Concerning actually building the langpacks, we might be basing on a separate project than "Ubuntu" for UME as we might have some post string/ui freezes translations12:45
loolAnd we also have to convert the upstream pot (or create them) and them convert them back12:46
pittilool: so, building entirely separate packages, not basing on the 'common' ones above?12:46
loolAnyway, we would have to push pots into another LP project, and retrieve another tarball12:46
pittithat would certainly work12:46
pittithen you can also include some GTK translations and add a Conflicts:12:46
loolI'd guess we would still want the mobile langpacks built frmo hardy and then continue building new ones and pushing them to our ppa or so12:47
loolSo, first we would have to add a mobile langpacks (with proper conflicts), then I'd like to continue pushing new langpacks to our ppa12:48
loolIs it possible to build the mobile langpacks against multiple LP translation tarballs?12:48
lool(Typically the Ubuntu main translations and the "mobile-translations" project translations tarball)12:48
pittilool: as long as the later ones only update the previous ones, that's possible, yes12:48
loolI guess this is all manual, and results in a giant .dsc which I push to our ppa and builds the binary arch: all packages?12:49
pittino, there's one source per binary12:49
pittisince we only update a langpack when its translations actually changed12:49
loolSo I would even be able to push a mobile langpack alone; I might need the Ubuntu + mobile translations tarballs to succeed building the .dscs though12:50
pittilool: langpack-o-matic previously had a script 'merge-tarballs' which lets you combine two exported tarballs and then build packs from the merge12:50
loolExcellent12:50
pittilool: it's not there in bzr head, but it's trivial to revive from the bzr history12:50
pittiI just removed it since we don't need it any more these days, but if you need it, no problem12:50
mjg59seb128: Right, you get to figure out what broke between the hardy build and now...12:51
loolpitti: Found it in history, thanks12:51
loolpitti: What would you be your guesstimate amount of work (either for you or for me) to add a mobile langpack and to actually produce new langpack packages?12:52
pittilool: depends; do you want to build completely separate packages, or build on top of the Ubuntu 'common' and 'gnome' ones?12:53
loolpitti: One high priority goal is to save space12:54
loolSo a completely separate one12:54
pittiok, right12:54
* Hobbsee curses evil x bugs12:54
lool(The seed data would really be good here)12:54
pittithen we'd need a langpack-o-matic branch for mobile with some updated skeleton source packages12:54
pittiwith updated descriptions and Conflicts, etc.12:54
pittiwe can drop the category matching there, since there will be just one12:55
pittilool: so, getting this langpack-o-matic branch right would take maybe one or two hours12:55
pittilool: the more interesting question is how to get a matching LP translation export12:55
loolpitti: We have to remap translations from english <-> localized to msgid <-> localized12:56
pittilool: i. e. if LP translations gives us exactly one tarball which contains mobile+ubuntu we need more code in langpack-o-matic12:56
pittilool: why?12:56
loolpitti: Does that happen starting from the LP tarball and before calling lang-o-matic?12:56
pittilool: that needs to happen for the LP translations web ui12:56
pittibut not necessarily for langpacks12:57
pittias long as you make sure that on the mobile device at least one locale is always defined12:57
loolBut the code uses msgids12:57
pittiI know what the code does12:57
loolHow do you find the msgid <-> string mapping on the device if you don't fix the LP exports before running l-o-m?!12:58
pittilool: let's have a phone call, shall we?12:58
loolpitti: Sure :)12:58
loolpitti: It's going to be on my mobile == expensive though12:58
loolpitti: Or I can call you, sorry12:58

carlospitti: btw, when I said multiverse I mean restricted14:04
seb128carlos: why should it be there?14:06
seb128carlos: that's a managing drivers thing, not restricted to non free ones now I think14:06
carlosseb128: isn't the argument for restricted-manager move to restricted valid anymore?14:07
seb128carlos: why was it moved there?14:07
carlosseb128: because it depended on drivers that were not free14:07
carlosJockey provides a user interface for configuring third-party drivers,14:07
carlos such as the Nvidia and ATI fglrx X.org and various Wireless LAN14:07
carlos kernel modules.14:07
carlosseb128: which is also true for jockey14:07
carlosat least from the description14:08
carlosseb128: I wonder it because I had to do a modification in Launchpad to allow restricted manager translations in the restricted pocket, but seems like this is not true anymore, in which case I want to revert the launchpad change too, so I just want to be sure that is not just a mistake in that new package14:09

pitticarlos: jockey is in main again, yes14:25
nosredna_ekimI'm actually testing upgrading kubuntu using the gtk tool. Anything I should be  fore-warned of?14:25
pitticarlos: because it's designed for free third-party drivers, too, and it doesn't hard-depend on l-r-m14:25
pitticarlos: however, that doesn't generally mean that we will never put packages in restricted which need i18n14:26
carlospitti: ok, could I disable restricted translations handling in Launchpad then?14:26
carlospitti: also, you should stop stripping translations out for those packages too14:26
carlospitti: well, I discussed with you that some days ago14:26

lamontI suspect he would want one though14:36
lamontand you might want to hold off on breaking all the buildds (if it does that) until he's around...14:36
pittilamont: hm, oops; if you think it'll actually break the builds, then maybe I should do a followup upload which reverts it?14:38
lamontpitti: dunno what it'll do...14:39

cjwatsonslangasek: bug report? :-)20:15
cjwatsonlangpacks belong in main, so ...20:15
slangasekso "drop the dependency" is the ultimate answer, ok. :)20:16
cjwatsonwell, at least it should be <= Recommends, probably Suggests20:17
cjwatsonnot sure what language-selector will do with that though20:17
slangasekperhaps language-support-writing-eu shouldn't exist at all yet, if the only dependency is in multivesre20:18

mario_limonciellslangasek, I lost my connection last night before i was able to stick around to hear a response to my question regarding logs.  In  the failed alternate cd builds, is there somewhere i'll be able to look at logs to see what happened without having to bug you?20:20
infinitycjwatson: (and then watch it mysteriously disappear when I forget to back it up when I reinstall the buildds, post-hardy, but that's my own issue to deal with..)20:20
slangasekmario_limonciell: would that I knew the answer to that20:20

mario_limonciellyeah that's exactly what i need20:21
infinitymario_limonciell: It's less than ideally-laid-out, but it should have full logs for just about everything.  Ish.20:22
slangasekcjwatson: in your opinion, given the choice between not being able to have a language-support-writing-eu package and having it in multiverse (or restricted), which would be the better option?20:24
infinityslangasek: Unless we've been relaxing this of late, restricted is only for hardware support (drivers/firmware), so it would be multiverse.20:24
slangasekok20:25
cjwatsoninfinity: I think it's unlikely20:26
infinityslangasek: And you'd have to test how launguage-selector would deal with it in multiverse, I guess.20:26
cjwatsonmm, there is the consequential problem that language-support-eu depends on language-support-writing-eu20:26
infinitycjwatson: That would have to change, obviously...20:26
cjwatsonI'm not honestly sure which I prefer of those two options20:26
