| jdong | the new theme looks pretty cool | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| * jdong backports it | 00:01 | |
| StevenK | Because running Hardy is pointless if you can just backport the lot? | 00:02 |
| jdong | StevenK: not nearly enough is backported to draw that comparison :) | 00:02 |
| StevenK | jdong: Heh. | 00:04 |
| _MMA_ | jdong: I wouldnt backport it yet as it still needs some work. | 00:28 |
| jdong | _MMA_: only personally for now | 00:29 |
| jdong | I just wanted it on my gutsy machine | 00:29 |
| jdong | call it greed | 00:29 |
| _MMA_ | Sure. | 00:29 |
| * StevenK is content to wait. | 00:29 | |
| zyx386 | and what is about my bug report? | 00:36 |
| zyx386 | well be fix it? | 00:36 |

| ionstorm | can some admin ban the spammers at http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/search?ordering=new | 03:30 |
| ionstorm | they are screwing up the site | 03:30 |
| RAOF | Heya Hobbsee! | 03:31 |
| Hobbsee | hey RAOF! | 03:31 |
| ScottK2 | Heya Hobbsee | 03:31 |
| * Hobbsee deals with gio. | 03:31 | |
| * TheMuso waves to RAOF and Hobbsee. | 03:31 | |
| RAOF | With a hammer? | 03:31 |
| RAOF | And a howdie to you too, TheMuso. | 03:32 |
| ScottK2 | Hmmm. Spammers messing up a site where users come up with work they think we should do... Bug or feature? | 03:32 |
| RAOF | Heh. | 03:32 |
| RAOF | I was thinking a bit about that. | 03:33 |
| TheMuso | It should have been tied to Launchpad User IDs. | 03:33 |
| TheMuso | IMO | 03:33 |
| ScottK2 | Oddly enough Ubuntu is the distro where I have to agree to play nice and Debian is the distro where I have to agree to care about the users. | 03:33 |
| Hobbsee | hi TheMuso | 03:37 |
| Fujitsu | TheMuso: I was advised that it will be soon. | 03:37 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: no, not really. trouble is, i have conflicting dates on when my rego was *actually* cancelled. | 03:37 |
| Hobbsee | so they want a fax, etc, etc, etc. nyah nyah nyah. | 03:38 |
| RAOF | Hobbsee: Aaaah. gio, not gio :) | 03:39 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: which were you thinking of? | 03:39 |
| RAOF | GIO, the new gnome IO subsystem. | 03:39 |
| * Fujitsu initially thought of the GVFS-related GIO. | 03:39 | |
| Fujitsu | That one. | 03:39 |
| RAOF | Since we are, after all, in #ubuntu-devel :) | 03:39 |
| RAOF | Not #cars-are-expensive | 03:40 |
| StevenK | Haha | 03:40 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: oh. | 03:40 |
| Hobbsee | :P | 03:40 |
| Hobbsee | no, this is #Hobbsee-hates-making-phone-calls-that-are-overdue | 03:40 |
| Hobbsee | blink? | 04:06 |
| RAOF | Netsplit? | 04:06 |
| Hobbsee | oh | 04:07 |
| Hobbsee | was about to say - i shouldnt' be timing out from there | 04:07 |
| Hobbsee | hurrah. done my 5 today. | 04:08 |
| * mpt applauds | 04:08 | |
| Hobbsee | should have got the spangly new code to do with it, though | 04:08 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK: nuked one of yours (can't reproduce) | 04:13 |
| ScottK | Hmmm. Looks for bugmail. | 04:16 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK: get-build-deps on !bash | 04:17 |
| ScottK | Ah | 04:17 |
| ScottK | I think he fixed that one. | 04:17 |
| ScottK | It's OK. I filed 10 bugs on ubuntu-dev-tools in one day. Even if one falls out, I'm still well over 5. | 04:18 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 04:18 |
| LaserJock | heh | 04:18 |
| StevenK | I thought it was fix 5, not file 5 | 04:18 |
| Hobbsee | if you file 5, you have to fix 10. | 04:19 |
| StevenK | Heh | 04:19 |
| ScottK2 | If people would stop uploading without thinking, I'd be fixing, not filing. | 04:19 |
| Hobbsee | bah. bzr curled up it's toes and died. | 04:19 |
| StevenK | Oh? | 04:19 |
| Hobbsee | bzr: ERROR: Cannot lock LockDir(lp--1217675668:///~5-a-day/5-a-day-data/main/.bzr/branchlock): Transport operation not possible: readonly transport | 04:19 |
| Hobbsee | bzr failed with error code 768 | 04:19 |
| StevenK | Delete the checkout and re-checkout, I think | 04:19 |
| RAOF | Hobbsee: That looks like you're trying to push to an http branch? | 04:19 |
| ScottK2 | My favorite ubuntu-dev-tools bug was that the AUTHORS file was executable. | 04:20 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: no idea. i'm just using whta's in haryd | 04:20 |
| StevenK | ScottK2: What did it do when you executed it? :-P | 04:20 |
| ScottK2 | It wouldn't have done anything much, but I didn't execute it. | 04:20 |
| ScottK2 | It's just symptomatic of a lack of care. | 04:20 |
| ScottK2 | How does that happen? | 04:20 |
| RAOF | I often chmod +x random files. Surely you do too? :? | 04:21 |
| ScottK2 | I'm on a different tack now anyway. I'm going to see how well I survive without ever logging into LP. | 04:22 |
| RAOF | I should learn the mail-based LP interface, yeah. | 04:22 |
| ScottK2 | Well I'm seriously looking at Lenny right now. I've pretty well had it up to my eyeballs with LP for a while. | 04:23 |
| Hobbsee | oh, meh. it doesn't create ~/.5-a-day-data, so dies | 04:24 |
| Hobbsee | and then still dies | 04:24 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: so be producive, and find ways of diong ubuntu without LP | 04:25 |
| ScottK2 | Hobbsee: I'm planning on it. I've been looking into actually teaching bughelper to report Ubuntu bugs instead of just whining to a mailing list. | 04:26 |
| LaserJock | that'd be handy | 04:26 |
| ScottK2 | I think all the relevant bits of code exist, it's just a matter of pulling them together. | 04:27 |
| ScottK2 | The other thing is that Lenny with KDE 3.5.9 may be a better desktop for my than the Ibex. | 04:30 |
| ScottK2 | I'm still waiting for a reassuring answer to my comment on kubuntu-devel ML about us being over a year away from a stable/reliable kde4pim. | 04:31 |
| * ScottK2 goes back to filing klamav bugs with upstream. | 04:31 | |
| RAOF | Wow, over a year? How does that happen? | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | It's like this... | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | KDE4.0 - No kdepim for kde4. | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | KDE4.1 - Initial kdepim port to qt4 | 04:33 |
| Hobbsee | kubuntu will carry kde 3.5.9 | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | KDE4.2 - Initial integration with the new Akdondi data engine back end | 04:34 |
| ScottK2 | KDE4.3 - I figure this is the first shot at a stable/reliable one. | 04:34 |
| ScottK2 | Releases happen every 6 months. | 04:34 |
| ScottK2 | Hobbsee: True, but how much attention is it going to get? | 04:35 |
| ScottK2 | Unless the Debian KDE people pull a miracle out of their hats Lenny will release with 3.5.9 and KDE4 will stay in experimental. | 04:35 |
| LaserJock | but don't we get whatever work Debian does? | 04:36 |
| ScottK2 | Probably. Assuming someone does the merges. | 04:37 |
| ScottK2 | I'm not saying which way I'm going. I've not decided. It's just that I'm looking into it. | 04:37 |
| slangasek | speaking of KDE, any kubuntu folks want to rebuild kdebase-workspace for libxklavier12? | 04:39 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: how much is gnome going to get? | 04:39 |
| ScottK2 | What is from my perspective declining usability in our main tool set and developers that don't care is my main concern. | 04:39 |
| Hobbsee | slangasek: i;ll do it | 04:39 |
| ScottK2 | Hobbsee: I've no idea. | 04:39 |
| slangasek | Hobbsee: cheers; fyi, there's a dep and a build-dep that each need changed | 04:40 |
| Hobbsee | come on, pull faster tahn 700 kbps. | 04:41 |
| Hobbsee | er, kBps | 04:41 |
| ScottK2 | The straw that broke the camel's back today was finding out after a long disucssion about a bug that it was known before the last LP release and neither documented nor fixed. | 04:41 |
| Hobbsee | that happesn for a lot of bugs. | 04:42 |
| Hobbsee | just watch a few that get marked for critical cherry picking, after sitting there for 3 months. i find that sadly amusing. | 04:42 |
| ScottK2 | You would think if being able to include attachments in new email bug reports was being announced as a major feature it would actually work (or at least have it's limitations documented) | 04:42 |
| Hobbsee | not really. i'm afraid i've seen a little too much of launchpad to expect such things. | 04:43 |
| Hobbsee | especially after seeing ppa release without a delete function, for months. | 04:43 |
| ScottK2 | Everyone over there claims it's getting better, but I don't see it. | 04:43 |
| Hobbsee | it is. it's getting more code, more features, and more bugs. | 04:44 |
| ScottK2 | I'm also seeing more and more replies along the lines of "we know it's not ideal, but that's what sabdfl said he wanted. nothing to do about it." | 04:44 |
| * Hobbsee suspects a lot of companies operate around "it's because the boss said so" | 04:45 | |
| pwnguin | is a ubuntu qa password different than lp or the wiki? | 04:45 |
| ScottK2 | Yes. | 04:45 |
| pwnguin | fun | 04:45 |
| Hobbsee | that being said, with all their time, and all their features, and all their new people, i would have hoped for better QA - which, at least for some parts, hasn't happened. | 04:45 |
| ScottK2 | Hobbsee: But very few FOSS projects do. | 04:45 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: and launchpad is not FOSS. | 04:45 |
| ScottK2 | Exactly. | 04:46 |
| ScottK2 | So I'm not going to play free QA for them any more. | 04:46 |
| Hobbsee | i'm actually not sure how much their "free QA", as it were, is helping them, seeing as they appear to get important bugs filed, then either ignore, or not understand the importance to people in the real world (or class them as not important) | 04:47 |
| Hobbsee | and yet do very little with them | 04:47 |
| pwnguin | Hobbsee: actually, im not certain a delete feature is a good idea. technically the gpl requires you to provide the source code to people for some number of months after distribution, upon request | 04:48 |
| ScottK2 | Yes. Even more encouragement to quit. | 04:48 |
| Hobbsee | pwnguin: ah yes - now i'm waiting for that bug to hit critical status, but it doesn't mention that it's violating the gpl, and kiko has already said "oh please...", so i'm guessing it will take a few more months, and a few more people going "uh...." | 04:49 |
| Hobbsee | pwnguin: feel free to comment about the violation on the bug. | 04:49 |
| LaserJock | Hobbsee: I'm not sure that's a very fair assessment | 04:49 |
| Hobbsee | pwnguin: but it's nice to actually have control over the binaries that are ther.e | 04:49 |
| LaserJock | there's certainly a lot of improvements that need to be made | 04:49 |
| LaserJock | but there are a lot of bugs getting fixed | 04:49 |
| LaserJock | and we certainly don't do much better with our bugs | 04:50 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: how do you disagree? i'll freely admit, iv'e seen more improvements in some areas than others, and i suspect i'm seeing some of the worse ends of LP, as most outside people don't see them | 04:50 |
| Hobbsee | yeah well. i have various things to say about that too. | 04:50 |
| ionstorm | https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/196859 <-- please notify admin asap, site is under spam attack | 04:50 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 196859 in ubuntu "Brainstorm is susceptible to spam" [Undecided,Invalid] | 04:50 |
| LaserJock | LP has a lot of functionality and is quite usable, not perfect, but it gets the job done | 04:50 |
| Hobbsee | ionstorm: they're not awake. | 04:51 |
| ScottK2 | LaserJock: But it's getting worse not better. | 04:51 |
| LaserJock | ScottK2: I wouldn't say that | 04:51 |
| Hobbsee | ionstorm: oh, that admin | 04:51 |
| LaserJock | there are some regressions here and there for sure | 04:52 |
| ionstorm | Hobbsee, we need to wake them | 04:52 |
| LaserJock | no doubt | 04:52 |
| ionstorm | view http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/search?ordering=new | 04:52 |
| ScottK2 | Personally I think the web site U/I peaked just before the beta and it's been getting more complex and less usable since. | 04:52 |
| Hobbsee | ionstorm: good luck in finding people who work for canonical at this time of day | 04:52 |
| LaserJock | but they've also made progress | 04:52 |
| ionstorm | they are massively spam attacking them | 04:52 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: can you call someone? | 04:52 |
| ionstorm | well canonical needs to be on irc | 04:52 |
| ScottK2 | LaserJock: Sure. It's some good and some bad. IMO the balance is to the bad. | 04:52 |
| Hobbsee | stgraber: ping? | 04:53 |
| Hobbsee | ionstorm: someone needs to not sleep, yeah | 04:53 |
| Hobbsee | hrm. i wonder if i can delete thru here | 04:53 |
| Hobbsee | no, i can only edit | 04:54 |
| Hobbsee | how useful | 04:54 |
| Hobbsee | yes! it's even worse than LP, in that you can't clear a dupe! | 04:56 |
| Hobbsee | ionstorm: you'll need someone on https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-qa-website-devel | 04:57 |
| * mpt works for Canonical | 04:57 | |
| Fujitsu | mpt: But you live on a sane side of the world at the moment. | 04:58 |
| Hobbsee | mpt: oh, i forgot to specify "who could do something about it" | 04:58 |
| Fujitsu | So you're not someone that we're looking for, as they're logically going to be in the wrong timezone when you need them. | 04:58 |
| mpt | My side of the world is *always* sane :-P | 04:58 |
| Hobbsee | unless you'r eoffering calling | 04:58 |
| mpt | Call someone about what? | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | Fujitsu: you mean everyone doesn't operate on UK time? | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | mpt: recent backscroll is your friend :) | 04:59 |
| Fujitsu | Hobbsee: What? Impossible! | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | and it relaly helps if i actually increment the changelog | 04:59 |
| Fujitsu | Oh. | 04:59 |
| mpt | oh, hee hee | 04:59 |
| * ScottK2 finds it help if I upload to Hardy instead of Gutsy (last night anyway). | 05:00 | |
| Hobbsee | hah | 05:00 |
| Fujitsu | Oh that bastard. | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | yeah, that too. i got that one right htough | 05:00 |
| Fujitsu | Erm, sorry. | 05:00 |
| Fujitsu | But, the spammer rejecting the bug. | 05:00 |
| Fujitsu | WTF. | 05:00 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 05:00 |
| ScottK2 | Bug was invalid against Ubuntu anyway. | 05:00 |
| mpt | I can't access the bug report, I get an offline message | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | Hm, edge looks dead. | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | So do I. | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | Try !ege. | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | *!edge | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | It worked for me a couple of minutes ago :( | 05:01 |
| Fujitsu | !edge must work, as it redirects me... | 05:01 |
| LaserJock | ouch | 05:01 |
| mpt | This is an example of why I don't think edge should be a separate hostname | 05:02 |
| Fujitsu | Doesn't the code update run around now? | 05:02 |
| Fujitsu | It's back now. | 05:02 |
| Fujitsu | That must have been it. | 05:02 |
| ScottK2 | BTW, I do find mpt is an exception to my broad generalizations I was making a few minutes ago. | 05:02 |
| mpt | Well, I confirmed the bug report, but there's not much more I can do at this time of day | 05:03 |
| mpt | We have yet to learn the lesson of planning for spam before releasing something publicly | 05:05 |
| Fujitsu | Mhm. | 05:05 |
| mpt | Hopefully this will be an object lesson | 05:05 |
| Fujitsu | Hopefully. | 05:05 |
| LaserJock | it's too bad it didn't even make it like more than 1 day | 05:05 |
| Fujitsu | Having some kind of coverage of multiple timezones would be good too. | 05:05 |
| Fujitsu | Having admins sitting on one side of the world is ++ungood. | 05:05 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: It's not that. It's the combination of sitting on one side of the world AND letting them sleep that's the problem. | 05:06 |
| Fujitsu | LaserJock: Slashdot and Digg do that to websites. | 05:06 |
| Fujitsu | ScottK2: Good point. Canonical needs to sponsor caffeine IVs. | 05:06 |
| Hobbsee | mpt: i live in hope. | 05:06 |
| mpt | Hobbsee, I live in a settlement that is actually called Hope | 05:06 |
| Hobbsee | mpt: it does actually have admins in most timezones, so it is getting better. | 05:07 |
| Hobbsee | mpt: nevertheless, with a GUI for delete, and a gui for 'mark as spam', that's not overly helpful | 05:07 |
| Fujitsu | Gaaaah. | 05:07 |
| * Fujitsu stabs repeatedly. | 05:07 | |
| Fujitsu | He rejected it. | 05:08 |
| * Fujitsu kills. | 05:08 | |
| Hobbsee | hah | 05:08 |
| Hobbsee | now now Fujitsu. you can't kill people, otherwise people inside and otuside of canonical will whinge about you being heavy handed. | 05:08 |
| ScottK2 | Apparently this is after "months of planning and development" what was come up with (reading planet). | 05:08 |
| mpt | ScottK, Launchpad has its problems, but if you say that the pre-1.0 UI was better than the post-1.0 UI, people may have difficulty taking your other issues seriously | 05:08 |
| Fujitsu | Even Launchpad has beta test phases, whereas this came from nowhere! | 05:09 |
| ScottK2 | mpt: That's how I find it, but I'm old and I like text. | 05:09 |
| ScottK2 | The old U/I also worked via my smartphone. New one doesn't. | 05:09 |
| * Hobbsee shudders | 05:09 | |
| ScottK2 | I also clicked on the wrong thing a lot less before. | 05:09 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: you ran launchpad over your *smartphone*???? | 05:09 |
| ScottK2 | I agree the newer one is prettier. | 05:10 |
| ScottK2 | Hobbsee: I have an all you can use data plan. | 05:10 |
| Hobbsee | you really are a masochist. how long did the pageloads take? | 05:10 |
| ScottK2 | Long time. | 05:10 |
| Hobbsee | i'll bet | 05:10 |
| Fujitsu | There aren't any LP admins on this side of the world either, are there? | 05:10 |
| ScottK2 | They take a lot longer now and I can't change stuff, so I quit doing it. | 05:10 |
| Fujitsu | Yay for status wars. | 05:10 |
| Hobbsee | Fujitsu: nope | 05:11 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: You could try to get his account cancelled, but you'll have to warn him, take him in front of some council somewhere, warn him again, and then maybe. | 05:11 |
| Fujitsu | ScottK2: And that requires an admin. | 05:11 |
| Fujitsu | He's just done it for the third time. | 05:12 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: By the time you get the other stuff done, the admin will be awake. | 05:12 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: no you don't. | 05:12 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK2: for actual spam, they'll nuke it. sometimes they'll try an email first. | 05:12 |
| * ScottK2 confesses to engaging in hyperbole and sarcasm. | 05:13 | |
| LaserJock | really?? | 05:13 |
| LaserJock | ;-) | 05:13 |
| ScottK2 | The part about thinkin LP is getting less and less usable was dead serious though. | 05:14 |
| Fujitsu | We need a system to vote users out, damnit! | 05:15 |
| LaserJock | "Survivor: Ubuntu Edition" | 05:16 |
| Fujitsu | s/Ubuntu/Launchpad/ | 05:17 |
| mpt | ScottK, does your phone browser try to do Launchpad's multi-column CSS layout? | 05:20 |
| ScottK2 | mpt: Yes. | 05:20 |
| ScottK2 | I think | 05:20 |
| ScottK2 | Let me try it. | 05:20 |
| mpt | non-Opera/iPhone browsers are often execrably bad at CSS | 05:21 |
| ScottK2 | It's a Palm Treo 600, so it's not precisely obscure. | 05:21 |
| ScottK2 | Wouldn't suprise me. | 05:21 |
| mpt | but a phone that ignores CSS altogether should be much happier with post-1.0 Launchpad than with the <table>-ridden pre-1.0 Launchpad. | 05:21 |
| ScottK2 | Their included mail client qualifies as excerable. | 05:21 |
| ScottK2 | The thing that got me was the switch to the current approach for the status/importance/etc section. The old one worked. | 05:22 |
| Hobbsee | hurrah. finally made all the phonecalls for the day. | 05:23 |
| Fujitsu | ScottK2: This is what the mail interface is for. | 05:23 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: This is true. There is an alternative, but it's still a regression from my perspective. | 05:24 |
| mpt | ScottK, if you can send me a screenshot, that might help a lot | 05:25 |
| ScottK2 | mpt: I'll see if I can figure out how to get a decent one. | 05:25 |
| ScottK2 | Actually it's gotten a lot worse than the last time I tried it. On a package page I just get the 'table' of releases. I don't even get the tabs to go to the bugs page. | 05:27 |
| Fujitsu | ScottK2: Oh, people use the tabs? | 05:28 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: I don't usually. I usually type in the urls on my computers, but on the phone it's a bit harder. | 05:28 |
| Fujitsu | Ah, true. | 05:28 |
| * lamont uses the tabs | 05:29 | |
| lamont | much easier that remembering the magic hidden URLs for stuff | 05:29 |
| ScottK2 | Fujitsu: Alternative answer is: No. That's why clicking on the package name in the status section of a bug now takes to you the package page instead of giving you the chance to change the affected package. | 05:29 |
| lamont | so I don't even bother trying to remember even the simple ones | 05:29 |
| ScottK2 | And it can't be changed. | 05:29 |
| * Hobbsee has aliases | 05:29 | |
| * ScottK2 doesn't remember them either. The browser knows where I've been before. | 05:30 | |
| lamont | Hobbsee: I have an alias for getting to a source package (which still has /distros in it, iirc), and maybe an lpbug alias | 05:30 |
| Hobbsee | lamont: pity the url's aren't always shown on the gui | 05:30 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 05:30 |
| LaserJock | I just type the urls by hand mostly | 05:31 |
| * ScottK2 needs to get to bed. Good night all. | 05:31 | |
| * Fujitsu does the same as LaserJock. | 05:31 | |
| Fujitsu | Night ScottK2. | 05:31 |
| * StevenK has an alias for source package, person and bug | 05:32 | |

| mdke | pitti: you remember we do that thing in ubuntu-docs where translations that are less than 40% don't get included? I'm just working on updating translations in the gutsy package; can I drop that a bit now that iso space is no longer a consideration? | 08:12 |

| dholbach | hi mdke | 08:20 |
| dholbach | Hobbsee: seems we need to transition it from "all commit to one branch" to "everybody commits to their own branch" | 08:21 |
| mdke | dholbach: i'm just doing some updates for the gutsy package of ubuntu-docs, with updated translations. Is it appropriate for me to remove the packaging guide from that, or do we just do that in hardy and going forward? | 08:21 |
| pitti | mdke: it'll make it still quite ugly to read, and CDs are still full, as always | 08:21 |
| dholbach | that'll make statistics a bit hairy, but it'll fix the issues | 08:21 |
| Hobbsee | dholbach: what's the problem with all committing to one branch? | 08:21 |
| dholbach | mdke: I'd just do it in hardy and keep the changes to gutsy as small as possible | 08:21 |
| mdke | pitti: are CDs still being regenerated for gutsy? | 08:21 |
| Hobbsee | also, it doesnt' seem to create the ~/.5-a-day-data | 08:21 |
| mdke | dholbach: fine, thanks | 08:21 |
| dholbach | Hobbsee: it should run bzr checkout <branch> | 08:22 |
| dholbach | at least it did for a lot of other people :) | 08:22 |
| Hobbsee | dholbach: this is a stock install of it. no changes. | 08:22 |
| dholbach | can you move .5-a-day-data away and try to run add-5-a-day 194631 190050 150577 140612 178903 196786 again? | 08:23 |

| seb128 | pitti: danke | 08:33 |
| dholbach | ah no, nevermind | 08:34 |
| dholbach | Hobbsee: what happens if you run cd ~/.5-a-day-data; bzr update; bzr commit -m "updated log for 'hobbsee'" ? | 08:34 |
| dholbach | if that makes it work,we should look into splitting up the branch quickly :) | 08:35 |
| Hobbsee | dholbach: same problem on that commit | 08:35 |
| Hobbsee | dholbach: you mean bzr doesn't handle big things? | 08:35 |
| dholbach | Hobbsee: no, if lots of people hammer the same branch, you can always get out of sync in a few seconds :) | 08:36 |

| pitti | Keybuk: WFM | 09:27 |
| seb128 | when started with a drive parameter it switches to the audio CD and start playing | 09:27 |

| seb128 | pitti: it's part of the upstream desktop, not sure | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | err, I mean audio cds | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | seb128: which do you think we should use by default for audio cds? | 09:31 |
| seb128 | I'm not decided | 09:32 |
| slomo | Pici: yay, dbus 1.1.20 :) | 09:32 |
| seb128 | sound-juicer has clean interface and is easy to use | 09:33 |
| seb128 | rhythmbox is nice but it might be too much to just play a CD | 09:33 |
| seb128 | what do other people think? | 09:33 |
| seb128 | we can still switch to rhythmbox by default now | 09:33 |
| seb128 | and see feedback we get until beta | 09:33 |
| * pitti ♥ RB, but I'm not claiming to be a representative user | 09:33 | |
| seb128 | and then decide on whether we use it or sound-juicer | 09:34 |
| Keybuk | that's a good idea | 09:34 |
| pitti | since it integrates better with your existing music collection | 09:35 |
| pitti | I think *if* you are using RB, then you want it for CD ripping, too | 09:35 |
| pitti | but if you *don't* use/like RB, then it's too heavy | 09:35 |
| pitti | (like users prefering banshee, or so) | 09:35 |

| cjwatson | RB by default> sound-juicer doesn't do last.fm, does it? my wife uses RB for that | 10:07 |
| seb128 | cjwatson: the question was about CD playing (when you insert an audio CD in the drive) | 10:11 |
| seb128 | but it might make sense to start the music player so people can switch to listen something else easily | 10:12 |
| cjwatson | seb128: I was talking about CD playing | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | seb128: last.fm users like to notify last.fm when they play a CD so that it gets more information about their music preferences | 10:21 |
| seb128 | ah, right | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | that's not on by default in RB, but it's a fairly easy to find checkbox | 10:23 |
| seb128 | yes, the plugin is not activated by default and you need to configure an account but that's easy enough | 10:26 |

| pitti | lool: ah, yay; I added the CVE to the Ubuntu changelog | 11:00 |
| pitti | lool: langpacks> sorry, seems I missed them | 11:01 |
| lool | pitti: Concerning the langpack: we have to do the scripting and all to have hildon langpackable in all cases, but the planned savings (something like 10 MB per language so max 30 MB) are not highly interesting | 11:01 |
| lool | So the part with new templates and copying translations into multiple langpacks are not too important for us | 11:02 |
| pitti | lool: 10 MB per language? that sounds really much | 11:02 |
| lool | And hence seeds support | 11:02 |
| mvo | pitti: yes, its not easy as it needs a hppa or ia64 box to test the 0.81.2 | 11:02 |
| lool | pitti: gnome and main langpacks are currently pulled | 11:02 |
| pitti | mvo: lamont can't test this? | 11:02 |
| lool | s/main/common | 11:02 |
| pitti | mvo: also, I'm actually more interested in getting a normal amd64/i386 upgrade test | 11:02 |
| pitti | mvo: i. e. to check for regressions | 11:03 |
| pitti | lool: so we just need the categorization for mobile and create l-p-mobile-XX, depending on l-p-gnome? | 11:03 |
| lool | pitti: What we _need_ is only hook support, like for firefox, openoffice.org etc. | 11:04 |
| mvo | pitti: for regressions? right, I think I can ask bdmurray for this | 11:04 |
| lool | The rest is all optional to whether we want mobile langpacks, but it's a lot of work for little savings | 11:04 |

| soren | Keybuk: It seems there's a race in the resume code in our initramfs.. Do you have a few minutes? | 15:22 |
| Keybuk | soren: sure | 15:23 |
| soren | Keybuk: For reasons that will go unmentioned, I had to nuke my swap lv at some point and have now recreated it. This has reordered my lvm layout so that swap_1's /dev/disk/by-uuid link gets created a bit too late for the resume stuff to be able to see it. | 15:23 |
| soren | Adding a tiny sleep or a call to udevsettle will fix it, but I'm sure you have a better idea. :) | 15:23 |
| soren | Well, udevadm settle, but ykwim. | 15:24 |
| soren | I could make a wait_for_resume_device loop akin to the one that waits for the root, but I'm not too hot on that either. | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | resume is run from local-premount, no? | 15:26 |
| soren | Right. | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | so it's run after the wait-for-root loop? | 15:26 |
| soren | Yes. | 15:27 |
| Keybuk | so shouldn't the swap device be there too? | 15:27 |
| soren | I can see what you're getting at.. | 15:27 |
| soren | Precisely. | 15:27 |
| soren | but it's not. | 15:27 |
| soren | The thing is.. | 15:27 |
| Keybuk | hmm | 15:27 |
| Keybuk | it's on the same disk? | 15:27 |
| soren | Yup. | 15:27 |
| soren | Due to the fact that I removed the lv and then created it again, it's now discovered as the last lv rather than one of the very first ones. | 15:28 |
| soren | Well... I assume that's the reason. | 15:28 |
| soren | It worked just fine before then, and now, if I break=bottom, and manually do the resume /dev/disk/by-uiid/blahblahbl, it resumes just finne. | 15:28 |
| soren | fine. | 15:28 |
| sistpoty|work | Hobbsee | Riddell: can one of you two give a hint about the FFe for new package keurocalc? (bug #196123) thanks | 15:29 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 196123 in ubuntu "[FFe] keurocalc port to kde4" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/196123 | 15:29 |
| soren | I put a few "ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/" into the resume script with a "sleep 1" in between. In the first one, it shows all the lv's up until and including the root, in the last one, it also has my swap. | 15:29 |
| Keybuk | what does $RESUME contain when you do break=bottom ? | 15:29 |
| soren | Oh, that stuff is all fine. | 15:29 |
| Keybuk | yeah, simple race then | 15:30 |
| soren | The path reference is just fine. | 15:30 |
| Keybuk | to fix it properly | 15:30 |
| Keybuk | I'd move the $RESUME -> $resume code from the resume script into init itself | 15:30 |
| Keybuk | and then adjust the loop inside local to check for $ROOT and $resume existing | 15:31 |
| soren | Well.. | 15:31 |
| soren | That would work. | 15:31 |
| soren | Sort of. | 15:31 |
| soren | The problem is that it shouldn't fail if the resume device never shows up. | 15:31 |
| pitti | seb128: g-v-m with that patch uploaded; I had to fix the second upstream patch, took a little longer | 15:32 |
| lifeless | thom: I thought it was better than my d430 - lighter, less volume | 15:32 |
| soren | Keybuk: I'm thinking about adding a second loop that times out after something as low as 5 seconds. | 15:33 |
| seb128 | pitti: ok, thanks | 15:33 |
| Keybuk | I *hate* never fail if never shows up problems | 15:33 |
| seb128 | pitti: do you think we should revert the dual battery hal change? | 15:33 |
| soren | Keybuk: ?!? | 15:33 |
| Keybuk | soren: racing $ROOT and $RESUME | 15:34 |
| soren | Keybuk: I can't parse that sentence. | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | in an ideal world, you'd just mount the root filesystem on the event for it being available | 15:34 |
| pitti | seb128: back to double batteries? | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | and you'd resume from swap on the event for it being available | 15:34 |
| pitti | seb128: AFAICS we should rather change it to only consider /proc? | 15:34 |
| soren | Keybuk: Right. | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | but you can't do that, because you have to wait for both to determine which you need to do | 15:34 |
| soren | Keybuk: Exactly. | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | (see also: why we're not taking advantage of Upstart yet) | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | it's worse, since depending on circumstance, one or the other may not show up at all | 15:35 |
| soren | Keybuk: One could make the argument that hibernation and subsequent resuming from hibernation is somethat that will only reasonable take place on systems that don't need to wait several minutes for the resume partition to show up. | 15:35 |
| pitti | seb128: I don't know whether it's the right solution (i. e. whether the kernel puts wrong stuff in /sys or hal just reads it wrongly), but since batteries in /proc are known to work, we should maybe just go with that in hardy | 15:35 |
| Keybuk | if you have $ROOT, how long do you wait before assuming $RESUME isn't going to show up | 15:35 |
| seb128 | pitti: dunno if you read it yesterday but crimsun_ got some git changes fixing the battery notifications | 15:35 |
| Keybuk | you can always guarantee someone will file a bug, because their $RESUME shows up one second after whatever you pick | 15:35 |
| pitti | seb128: no, I didn't reat id | 15:36 |
| soren | Keybuk: I realise. | 15:36 |
| soren | Keybuk: Just as is the case for the current loop that waits for the root. | 15:36 |
| pitti | carlos: any idea about this translation regression? bug 196106 | 15:36 |

| Keybuk | you'd end up with | 15:37 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: could we put a marker in the root filesystem to say that you should wait for resume? | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | on filesystem-available $ROOT and (filesystem-available $RESUME or 5s after filesystem-available $ROOT) | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | type things | 15:37 |
| cjwatson | hmm, I suppose it would have to be on the device such that you didn't need to mount the filesystem to get at it | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: doesn't protect you from corrupt swap partitions :-( | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | or partial hibernation, etc. | 15:38 |
| mjg59 | You can't partially hibernate | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: what happens if the power goes out while it's writing to swap? | 15:38 |
| mjg59 | Oh, sorry, I see what you mean | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | or (and I have seen this) some idiot using md as their swap partition | 15:39 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: of course, we could always use swap files on the root partition ;) | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | :-) | 15:40 |
| * soren twitches | 15:40 | |
| cjwatson | I think we have to support swap partitions regardless of the default | 15:40 |
| Keybuk | or mandate that the resume partition has to be on the same physical disk as the root | 15:40 |
| soren | That is the case here. | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | which presumably still doesn't guarantee that they show up simultaneously | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | just quite close together | 15:41 |
| soren | Yet, it still races (and loses). | 15:41 |
| Keybuk | not when md, lvm, devmapper are involved - no | 15:41 |
| cjwatson | even without any of that, it can't create both devices at the same time | 15:41 |
| soren | Er... lvm is involved. | 15:41 |
| soren | And it races. | 15:41 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: I mean that it's easy to force waiting for the rest of the partitions on the same disk to all exist | 15:42 |
| cjwatson | ah | 15:42 |
| Keybuk | but it's hard when you're actually waiting for a resultant block device | 15:42 |
| Keybuk | udev may have seen the partitions, but it now has to go and run lvm, mdadm, etc. | 15:42 |
| soren | Well, the block device is there. | 15:42 |
| Keybuk | and those things use watershed | 15:42 |
| soren | udev just hasn't quite gotten around to creating the uuid symlink. | 15:42 |

| sistpoty|work | heh | 16:28 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: C99 6.4.5 para 6 "It is unspecified whether these arrays are distinct provided their elements have the appropriate values" which I think means you can't rely on pointer equality | 16:29 |
| Keybuk | I wanted value equality though :) | 16:29 |
| cjwatson | well the preprocessor will only give you pointer equality | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | err, not even that actually, hmm | 16:30 |
| Keybuk | the preprocessor just gives me an error | 16:30 |
| Keybuk | which pretty much answers the question no matter what the standard says ;) | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | yeah, C99 says you can't do that | 16:30 |
| cjwatson | 6.10.1 para 1 "shall be an integer constant expression"; 6.6 para 6 lists the operands that may be in an integer constant expression none of which include string literals | 16:31 |

| EnderTheThird | Anyone having troube with X.org taking 90+ % of CPU usage with Hardy Alpha 5? | 22:28 |
| mbt | EnderTheThird: No, at least not with an NVIDIA driver and Compiz. Are you using VESA or something along those lines? | 22:31 |
| EnderTheThird | mbt: no. intel | 22:32 |
| mbt | EnderTheThird: Strange. Sounds like a bug to me. | 22:33 |
| EnderTheThird | Dell GX260. No powerhouse by any stretch of the imagination, but it should at least be able to do 2D. (no Compiz) | 22:33 |
| EnderTheThird | yeah, it's unbearably slow. | 22:34 |
| mbt | Well, maybe try switching to the VESA driver and see if that speeds things up. At least that would likely pinpoint the cause as being the Intel driver. | 22:35 |
| EnderTheThird | I'll give it a whirl. brb | 22:37 |
| EnderTheThird | much better with vesa. It's still not as responsive as I'd think it should be, but it's usable. | 22:39 |
| mbt | Yeah, the vesa driver is very not optimized. But, I think that probably just gave you enough information to report the problem | 22:39 |
| EnderTheThird | moving windows is awful, heh | 22:40 |
| mbt | lol yeah, though you can tweak some settings in gconf to do wire-frames and the like | 22:40 |
| EnderTheThird | Gutsy performance wasn't too great either. Weird thing is that I remember it running better with 6.06 and 6.10, even with Compiz/Beryl. | 22:41 |
| EnderTheThird | nevermind. it's not just with the Intel driver | 22:44 |
| EnderTheThird | It seems to be jumping around with Vesa too. | 22:44 |
| mbt | It will. | 22:44 |
| mbt | It's doing most everything with the host CPU instead of with the GPU when using the VESA driver. | 22:44 |
| mbt | But CPU use shouldn't stay consistently high unless you've got a lot of screen updates. | 22:45 |
| EnderTheThird | I'm going to try downgrading to 6.06 after the d/l completes. I remember it being much faster on 6.06. We'll see if it's just my crappy memory, heh. | 22:46 |

| mathiaz | mvo: how can I do an upgrade from dapper to hardy on a server ? | 23:06 |

| mvo | mathiaz: yes - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#head-e7f287c730b93116f89de7ea7e05efbe95fa6dd1 | 23:07 |
| * sistpoty still believes that apt-get dist-upgrade should just work for people not installing 3rd party stuff | 23:07 | |
| mathiaz | mvo: ok - thanks. | 23:07 |
| mvo | sistpoty: for dapper->hardy? it will not, you will have to upgrade apt and dpkg first if you do it manually, the problem is the new "Breaks" field | 23:08 |
| sistpoty | mvo: than that's wrong and should be fixed imho *g*... but I must admit that I upgrade my gf's laptop with dist-upgrade, and it was just too smooth to be real ;) | 23:09 |
| sistpoty | not with dist-upgrade, but with the updater python thingy you wrote | 23:09 |
| mvo | sistpoty: from dapper? | 23:10 |
| sistpoty | mvo: from feisty to gutsy | 23:10 |
| mvo | sistpoty: nice, good to hear :) | 23:10 |
| mvo | sistpoty: the fix for this would be to not use breaks until the next lts got released in order to maintain compatiblity. that is a bit drastic IMO - or to backport it to dapper, but that is quite a change as well | 23:11 |
| mdke | the first fix wouldn't work surely, because you'd just have the same problem with lts+2, no? | 23:11 |
| mdke | but I can see sistpoty's point, I would have thought a lot of server admins will try dist-upgrade from dapper to hardy | 23:13 |
| sistpoty | mvo: right, I guess even having s.th. getting upgraded first (e.g. libc) pre-depend on the new apt wouldn't work, due to the circular nature | 23:14 |
| mvo | mdke: I agree that this is not a ideal situation - but I can not see what we can do (except for backporting) - the solution we have is the release-upgrader that does some additional checks and shouldn't get in the way of any admin in server mode | 23:15 |
| mdke | mvo: yeah. The only thing we can do is try and get the message to as many people as possible that dist-upgrade won't work | 23:15 |
| mvo | sistpoty: yeah, even if we could make it work somehow it would be rather messy | 23:15 |
| sistpoty | that's true, and I guess it would open a can of worms trying to fix it | 23:16 |
| mvo | mdke: we discussed issuing a update to dappers apt that will give a big warning on dist-upgrade (if any of the upgraded-to packages are hardy) | 23:16 |
| mvo | sistpoty: *nod* | 23:16 |
| mdke | mvo: sounds like a plan | 23:17 |
| mvo | yeah | 23:17 |
