| yuriy | Riddell: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuIntrepidVersion doesn't specify what will happen to KDE3 packages. will they be removed from the archive as long as there's a replacement? | 00:16 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottK-uds | yuriy: The goal is to kill KDE3 as dead as possible. I think yes, although it's not 100 percent clear he meant remove and not drop to Universe, I think he meant remove. | 00:22 |
| daskReech | 0_o | 00:25 |
| * wolfger worries | 00:26 | |
| daskReech | I understand the want to have KDE3 that dead | 00:26 |
| daskReech | I don't undersand how it can be seen as wise | 00:26 |
| stdin | I believe the plan is to move kde3 packages to universe | 00:26 |
| wolfger | KDE4 needs to be much better than it is now before we go killing KDE3 | 00:26 |
| ScottK-uds | daskReech: The only responses that would be useful would be from someone agreeing to port Guidance Display Config to Xrandr. | 00:36 |
| * daskReech would ask the ubuntu devs too :-P | 00:36 | |
| daskReech | ScottK-uds: ask for that then | 00:36 |
| ScottK-uds | We should run it by Riddell first. We'd also need enough MOTU to commit to maintaining it with no upstream support. | 00:36 |
| ScottK-uds | My personal plan is to just stay with Hardy if KDE4 doesn't seem sufficiently mature. | 00:37 |
| daskReech | put that as one of the choices on the post | 00:38 |
| wolfger | ScottK-uds: can you explain to me the massive importance of Guidance Display Config? | 00:40 |
| ScottK-uds | wolfger: Without a display you don't have much of a desktop. | 00:40 |
| ScottK-uds | X has changed to work in ways the guidance can't support. | 00:41 |
| wolfger | ah, OK. | 00:41 |
| ScottK-uds | We barely got it sort of working for Hardy, but it's really got to die. | 00:41 |
| ScottK-uds | Ubuntu was able to grab source from Red Hat for a Gnome Xrandr tool. No such luck for us. | 00:42 |
| yuriy | but this is a problem common to all KDE distros | 00:49 |
| yuriy | daskReech: what is the problem with killing KDE3 in intrepid? | 00:49 |
| daskReech | except fedora :) | 00:49 |
| yuriy | we have Hardy with the latest and greatest of the KDE3 series | 00:50 |
| yuriy | wow amarok2 has a random albums feature. never would have thought of that one yet it seems so awesome now | 00:56 |

| mhb | Riddell: I've read the dbus printing dialog & API spec, but it seems to avoid the obvious technical questions like "what toolkit will be used" "what language will be used" and the like... are you hosting any more information about that? | 09:24 |
| mhb | on a wiki page or such | 09:25 |
| Riddell | mhb: there's a dbus printing dialog & API spec? | 09:27 |
| mhb | well I meant just the initial abstract stuff on the code.google.com | 09:27 |
| Riddell | mhb: url? | 09:27 |
| Riddell | it's cross desktop, so there will be both gtk and kde implementations (maybe also pure qt) | 09:28 |
| Riddell | kde one would be c++, gtk one presumably C | 09:28 |
| mhb | Riddell: hmm | 09:28 |
| mhb | Riddell: any code sharing between the two? | 09:28 |
| mhb | (you know I'm fond of that) | 09:28 |

| paracetamolo | hi, I'm trying to build amarok2 from trunk with the qt4.4 from kubuntu and I got the variable QT_QTOPENGL_LIBRARY (ADVANCED) not set | 09:30 |
| mhb | because maintaining two separate printing dialogs has the possibility of one eventually diverging, like say if GNOME guys kept upgrading their own and forgetting about the other one, which they're not interested in | 09:30 |
| paracetamolo | anybody had more luck? | 09:30 |
| Riddell | paracetamolo: got libqt4-opengl-dev installed? | 09:30 |

| paracetamolo | Riddell: yes I do | 09:32 |

| paracetamolo | leaving amarok, is there a way to use kde3 apps in a kde4 session with their old configuration? e.g. kopete with is contacts | 09:44 |
| stdin | start the kde3 app and it should use the kde3 settings | 09:45 |
| paracetamolo | stdin: no, it start like the first time | 09:46 |
| stdin | you sure you're starting the kde3 version not the kde4 one? | 09:47 |
| stdin | all my KDE 3 apps retain their settings | 09:47 |
| paracetamolo | stdin: absolutely | 09:47 |
| stdin | and you don't have a separate user for kde3/4 or anything like that? | 09:47 |
| paracetamolo | I tryed to copy some settings from .kde3 to .kde4, but nothing appened... | 09:48 |
| paracetamolo | stdin: nono, same user | 09:48 |
| stdin | the kde3 apps look in ~/.kde | 09:49 |
| mhb | Riddell: found the patch that patches kdm to tell kwallet the password | 09:49 |

| paracetamolo | stdin: yeah sorry, from .kde to .kde4 | 09:49 |
| mhb | Riddell: yeah, opensuse's Dirk Muller did that during one of their hack weeks, it could be used to implement a single sign on in Kubuntu | 09:49 |
| mhb | Riddell: I mean a tiny part of it, but still. | 09:50 |
| Riddell | the topic came up on kde-utils-devel today, I wonder if they know of the patch | 09:50 |

| mhb | Riddell: it's for KDE3, checking if they made a KDE4 port | 10:17 |
| mhb | Riddell: it seems they're planning to patch all the applications that will support single sign on | 11:28 |
| mhb | Riddell: because instead of transporting user credential, they're planning to transport "tokens" over the neetwork... so the apps need to be all patched to support it | 11:29 |
| mhb | that's pretty disappointing, I must say | 11:29 |
| Riddell | I guess that's the only way to make a smooth user experience | 11:37 |
| mhb | why so? | 11:37 |
| Riddell | well how else? | 11:37 |
| mhb | I mean what made you change your "script's not that bad" opinion from tuesday? | 11:37 |
| mhb | now we're patching everything | 11:38 |
| mhb | and we both know not a single person in this room (except me and seele, of course) cares about what happens to KDE apps | 11:38 |
| mhb | patching all apps => only Ubuntu can manage that => Kubuntu won't have that => another cool feature we're not bringing | 11:39 |
| mhb | I don't call that a smooth user experience | 11:39 |
| Tm_T | mhb: true | 11:39 |
| ryanakca | mhb: pong? | 11:46 |
| mhb | Riddell: any opinion on my rant? I'd settle with patching all apps if it were feasible or if I knew somebody would really get to that | 11:46 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: at the moment, there are changes spread out accross my server and the Canonical testsite(s). New download page is on my server. Release stuff is on the Canonical servers... etc. | 11:48 |
| mhb | Riddell: but are you sure we've got the manpower for that? I don't think so... and not shipping it because Ubuntu can and we don't have enough paid developers... that would make me quite an angry man (therefore the ranting) | 11:49 |
| Riddell | mhb: it's something to be concerned about indeed | 11:50 |
| \sh | mhb: what needs to be done? | 11:51 |
| mhb | it seems that they've shifted plans | 11:55 |
| Nightrose | to? | 11:56 |
| mhb | instead of having this cool synchronizing tool, they want only to use public APIs for aunthentication with 3rd party services | 11:56 |
| mhb | which, naturally, are not there | 11:56 |

| yuriy | looks like they've started a port of their package manager, but I don't see one for network manager: http://svn.pardus.org.tr/uludag/branches/ | 14:19 |
| ScottK-uds | yuriy: I take it you are listening. | 14:20 |

| Riddell | gtk-perl! | 14:24 |
| yuriy | ew | 14:24 |
| mhb | yuriy: well, mandriva has got a Yast-like configuration system | 14:24 |
| mhb | in perl, right | 14:24 |
| mhb | so it's a) hard to port b) not our preferred language | 14:24 |
| yuriy | the service manager is pretty broken and probably needs porting to upstart | 14:28 |
| mhb | yuriy: the pardus one? | 14:29 |
| yuriy | the guidance one | 14:29 |
| mhb | yuriy: we're thinking of importing some pardus tools (if that's audible from the icecast) | 14:29 |
| yuriy | i wasn't sure if that was a list of guidance tools or pardus tools a minute ago | 14:29 |
| yuriy | Bug 232509 | 14:31 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 232509 in kubuntu-default-settings "Integrate some applications in kde-systemsettings of Kubuntu" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/232509 | 14:31 |
| yuriy | for network management, i think the important thing to get right is integration with knetworkmanager and sensible switching between static and dynamic configuration | 14:35 |
| yuriy | like at least an option to configure everything automatically using knetwork manager, which clears the entries from /etc/network/interfaces | 14:36 |
| yuriy | perhaps seele could look into what would be a good workflow for that? | 14:37 |
| seele | yuriy: maybe if we build our own tool | 14:39 |
| yuriy | why does everything have to be done from scratch? | 14:42 |
| ScottK-uds | yuriy: We're hoping not. It's very quiet, so I don't know if you can tell, but they are looking at Pardus now. | 14:42 |
| yuriy | ScottK-uds: oh, i just hear mumbling :P | 14:46 |
| yuriy | hmm... xine is required to build kdebase O_o | 14:52 |
| mhb | yuriy: for phonon only, phonon is moving to kdesupport | 15:00 |
| yuriy | but phonon shouldn't build depend on xine, should it? | 15:02 |
| mhb | not really | 15:06 |
| mhb | yuriy: still here? | 15:22 |
| mhb | the sessions's ended... what do you think about the issue? | 15:22 |
| mhb | it turns out that each person has a different viewpoint | 15:22 |
| Riddell | yuriy: the xine backend should.. | 15:23 |
| Riddell | we do not have clarity on configuration tools | 15:23 |
| mhb | Riddell: hmm, there also is a #pardus-devel channel for us impatient types, asking there now. | 15:25 |
| Riddell | oh, I looked there but it was empty | 15:26 |
| Riddell | maybe I was on the wrong network or something | 15:26 |
| * Riddell tempted just to install kuser and be done | 15:26 | |
| mhb | Riddell: why did we abandon it in the first place? | 15:27 |
| Riddell | mhb: it's unmaintained and guidance was better | 15:28 |
| mhb | right... but it's not anymore | 15:28 |
| mhb | (better) | 15:28 |
| Riddell | it's not, because there's no kde 4 guidance | 15:28 |
| Riddell | if there was, it would still be an open question | 15:28 |
| Riddell | although I suspect guidance would win | 15:29 |
| * mhb compares | 15:29 | |
| mhb | Riddell: it doesn't look well (for Tonio_ 's solution, that is) | 15:37 |
| mhb | Riddell: Pardus devs do not think that KDE4 is ready (who would have guessed) and it seems they release only once a year | 15:38 |
| mhb | only their installer is qt4 at the moment, otherwise it's kde3 | 15:38 |
| mhb | so pardus 2008 won't be KDE4 and pardus 2009 is not what bothers us ATM. | 15:39 |

| yuriy | hmm gdm isn't sitting still http://www.ogmaciel.com/?p=478 need some of that stuff in kdm | 19:17 |
| smarter | the main feature seems to be "Allow session agents to run in the greeter session (gnome-power-manager etc)" | 19:18 |
| smarter | which could be done by kdm + plasma maybe? | 19:19 |
| smarter | similar to the plasma screensaver thing | 19:19 |
| mornfall | yuriy: Pong. Received and OK. | 19:19 |
| mornfall | yuriy: Even pushed to public : - ). | 19:19 |
| mornfall | But, excuse me for a while, I have a recorder practice sesssion. | 19:20 |
| yuriy | mornfall: i was actually pinging about something else, lmk when you have a minute | 19:22 |
| mornfall | yuriy: I'm yours. | 19:46 |
| jussi01 | Hrm, does anyone know how to get kde3 apps to take the kde4 theme? | 19:47 |
| yuriy | mornfall: i'm trying to streamline the showing of commit progress, but the code is just about as jumpy as the interface | 19:47 |
| yuriy | ideally i'd like to see just one overall progress bar, with the option to view more details | 19:48 |
| mornfall | yuriy: You mean download or commit, really? | 19:48 |
| yuriy | but right now it seems like there's a separae widget for every stage, so i'm just not sure where to start | 19:48 |
| jussi01 | hrm... oops wrong place... /me sighs... | 19:48 |
| mornfall | Since commit only has one progress bar (+ the label showing what's going on). | 19:48 |
| yuriy | mornfall: i mean the whole commit process | 19:48 |
| mornfall | That's not really going to fly. | 19:48 |
| yuriy | which part? | 19:49 |
| mornfall | You have no way to guess the download/commit time ratio. | 19:49 |
| mornfall | Even now the commit is a lot of guessing. | 19:49 |
| yuriy | well, i guess it could reset the progress bar, but as long as it's not moving around the screen so much | 19:50 |
| mornfall | It would help to move the commit one to the bottom of the screen by default. | 19:50 |
| mornfall | That would actually fix most of the problem, no? | 19:50 |
| yuriy | but would just splitting them 50/50 for an overall progress bar be so bad? | 19:50 |
| yuriy | mornfall: then you just have a big blank screen, which is already a problem i think in the download screen | 19:51 |
| mornfall | Dunno, I quite dislike when programs try that on me. Like the windows installer. | 19:51 |
| yuriy | heh, true | 19:51 |
| mornfall | Downloading, commiting are fine as they are, with resetting the bar. | 19:51 |
| mornfall | Yes, big blank screen is a problem. | 19:52 |
| mornfall | However, hiding things behind a button don't help much either, I'm afraid. | 19:52 |
| mornfall | The download UI is rather jumpy indeed, but I didn't have time to fix that yet. | 19:53 |
| yuriy | well, what i was actually imagining is hiding things behind a translucent overlay with an overall progress bar, and a button to move the overlay out of the way which would send the progress bar to the bottom | 19:53 |
| mornfall | Ick. | 19:54 |
| mornfall | Translucent is hard on eyes. | 19:54 |
| mornfall | What could potentially help the download screen is having a list of things to download right from the start and just add OK when they are home. | 19:54 |
| yuriy | that would help, isn't that what adept 2 does? | 19:55 |
| mornfall | No, works just like current one. | 19:55 |
| yuriy | also, doesn't aptitude and adept 2 usually do more than 1 download at a time? | 19:55 |
| mornfall | You will get more progressbars when they do. | 19:56 |
| * yuriy doesn't use the GUI for installing packages much | 19:56 | |
| mornfall | Only happens when you download from more than one site. | 19:56 |
| mornfall | Actually, the progressbar for commit is in the same place as it is for download. Mostly. | 19:58 |
| mornfall | Probably just needs fine-tuning. | 19:58 |
| mornfall | The OpProgress one needs to be moved down though. | 19:59 |
| yuriy | well, that's what i was referring to, there are at least 3 different ones and the layout looks different each time | 20:00 |
| === J-Unit is now known as jdong | ||
| mornfall | yuriy: I have fixed OpProgress to have same layout as commitprogress. | 20:04 |
| yuriy | mornfall: also i just ran into a case where I had the preview listing packages that are not set to be changed. I think I chose to install something, then revert, then install something else, and the deps of the first one reappeared in the preview, though with no action | 20:05 |
| mornfall | yuriy: Interesting. | 20:06 |
| mornfall | You are right. | 20:07 |
| mornfall | And regenerating the list won't change that. Gotta be somewhere deeper. | 20:08 |
| mornfall | Hm, it's because of how we check for modified packages. Apparently wrong way. | 20:09 |
| mornfall | That's actually a bug in ept. | 20:12 |
| mornfall | (Fixed, hopefully.) | 20:12 |
| mornfall | Maybe even without breaking something else. | 20:12 |
| yuriy | heh | 20:12 |
| mornfall | I have also removed the "Download total: " label from the download progress. | 20:13 |
| mornfall | Maybe adding a (always disabled for now) cancel button to opprogress and commitprogress would help, too. | 20:13 |
| yuriy | let's see other concerns I had.. libadeptlib.a, is that right? | 20:14 |
| mornfall | Yes, cmake goes crazy if you have both lib and app called "adept". | 20:14 |
| yuriy | you have to scroll in the categories list in the installer for most window/screen sizes. kinda bothers me, but don't know what we could do about that | 20:15 |
| mornfall | Basically nothing. | 20:15 |
| mornfall | Make people use search. | 20:15 |
| mornfall | The categories are already overcrowded inside. | 20:15 |
| yuriy | and the sidebar with the category list looks pretty weird. i was thinking the maybe sidebar would be better if it looked more like the tabs in kickoff | 20:16 |
| mornfall | You mean sidebar and category list next to each other? | 20:18 |
| mornfall | I just took the okular one, that fit the purpose. There's no sidebar in kdelibs AFAIK. | 20:18 |
| mornfall | And I haven't really seen kickoff... | 20:18 |
| yuriy | there isn't | 20:18 |
| yuriy | http://polishlinux.org/kde/kde-41-visual-changelog-rev-783000/ | 20:19 |
| yuriy | mornfall: how it has the active tab blended into the rest of the interface instead of looking like a completely separate list | 20:19 |
| mornfall | Yeah, well, could be. I won't have time to play with that though, I'm afraid. | 20:21 |
| mornfall | If you can implement that without disrupting the other code too much, you could definitely try. | 20:21 |
| yuriy | yep, i will | 20:24 |
| yuriy | seele: ping -- any thoughts on the progress showing discussion a half hour back? | 20:26 |
| yuriy | mornfall: you haven't published the changes you just made | 21:01 |
| mornfall | No, sorry, not yet. | 21:03 |
| mornfall | yuriy: K, I have recorded, testsuite is running now. | 21:25 |
| mornfall | (On ept.) | 21:25 |
| mornfall | I have pushed adept changes in the meantime. | 21:25 |
| === rdieter is now known as rdieter_away | ||
| seele | yuriy: i see the conversation but i dont know what application you are talking about | 22:54 |
| * seele wonders if there are any movies on | 22:55 | |
| yuriy | seele: adept-3 | 22:57 |
| seele | yuriy: can you get me screenshots of what you are talking about? | 22:58 |
| yuriy | k, h/o have to either build or turn on my laptop | 23:00 |
| yuriy | seele: http://www.yktech.us/temp/adept1.png http://www.yktech.us/temp/adept2.png http://www.yktech.us/temp/adept4.png | 23:23 |
| yuriy | it's a bit improved from that (the 2nd one is centered now i think, i haven't tried the latest patch yet) | 23:23 |
| yuriy | the first screen, lines get printed in the white area when downloads are done | 23:23 |

| jjesse | do you ever just mark messages for follow up because you don't want to read or deal with it any more | 23:41 |
| seele | hmm | 23:46 |
| seele | Riddell: how busy are you tomorrow? if you have time, do you want to go see the gardens the guide from tuesday told us about? | 23:46 |
