| seb128 | apt-cache rdepends library | 14:06 |
| Rioting_pacifist | thx | 14:10 |
| Rioting_pacifist | a program is listed twice is that a problem or just the way to apt-cache works works? | 14:11 |
| seb128 | you might have several sources providing a different version for this one | 14:12 |

| seyed-mehdi | I can't open any https pages. can anyone help please ? | 14:35 |
| seyed-mehdi | any suggestion ? | 14:38 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: You might ask on #launchpad if there is any way around it, although be warned that there may be problems with some data. | 14:41 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: thanks 4 suggestion :) which data may have problems ? | 14:42 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: I'm not sure. Personally, I'd not be surprised if e.g. private bugs were not available without https. | 14:43 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: I donno, its better checking #launchpad :) thanks | 14:45 |

| persia | Hobbsee: Huh? Maybe I have the context wrong. | 14:52 |
| Hobbsee | persia: the guy never mentioned launchpd at all - he just said he couldn't open https pages. | 14:53 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: Are you here to talk about a bug with not being able to open https, or are you having trouble helping with bug triage because you are behind a firewall that prohibits https? | 14:53 |
| Hobbsee | persia: haven't you noticed a disturbing trend of people coming here for premier support, as #ubuntu is too busy? | 14:53 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Not recently. I'll try to be more careful, with that in mind. | 14:54 |

| persia | Hobbsee: Indeed. | 14:55 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: yeah, but didnt find anything | 14:55 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: there was problem with opening htts in OO or evolution or other progs, but my problem is not those | 14:55 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: Maybe you have a new bug then. Have you tried multiple browsers? | 14:56 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: yeah, any known browser such as Firefox, opera, Konqueror and others | 14:57 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: i hadnt this problem in other distro's of ubuntu | 14:58 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: Hrm. Not sure which package to file the bug against then. You might start with a question, and after some more investigation file a bug. | 14:58 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: the point is that I've reinstall ubuntu, either kubuntu but nothing changes, even in Live CD I cant browse those. | 14:59 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: Right. It sounds like a bug. Unfortunately, as it seems to happen under multiple conditions, I don't know where to suggest you file it, which is why I recommended a question. | 15:00 |
| persia | You might also find support in #ubuntu helpful towards determining the nature of the bug so it can get filed and processed, and this doesn't happen to anyone else. | 15:00 |
| seyed-mehdi | persia: I was in that channel, no one have any answer for that | 15:01 |
| persia | seyed-mehdi: Then a question is your best bet. | 15:02 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 99445 in sun-java6 "Java 6 and KDE integration" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/99445 | 16:07 |
| yuriy | snap-l: there are also some bugs about java not working in konqueror and such | 16:12 |
| snap-l | This is a different issue... it's about appearance, not the plugin | 16:12 |
| yuriy | snap-l: I think the best thing to do would be to put together a spec documenting all the stuff broken with java in KDE and what needs to be done to fix it | 16:13 |
| james_w | snap-l: I think you've done a good job with the bug, is there anything else that you think needs doing to it | 16:13 |
| james_w | apart from fixing it of course :-) | 16:13 |
| snap-l | james_w: I can't think of anything at the moment | 16:13 |
| snap-l | yuriy: This is across KDE distros vs. GNOME. I checked it out with Kubuntu and Mandriva 11 last night / this morning using jbidwatcher | 16:14 |
| james_w | I'll set the Ubuntu status to triaged | 16:14 |
| snap-l | Thanks! | 16:14 |
| snap-l | yuriy: The differences between how it appears in GNOME / GTK vs. KDE / QT are pretty striking. | 16:14 |
| james_w | snap-l: are you not a member of bugcontrol yet? | 16:15 |
| snap-l | No, I am not. | 16:15 |
| james_w | have you considered applying? | 16:15 |
| snap-l | james_w: I've considered it, but would like to get more familar with the process before having more authority. :) | 16:15 |
| james_w | sure, no rush. | 16:16 |
| james_w | if java looks really bad under KDE then a couple of screenshots added to the bugs might help a bit. | 16:16 |
| snap-l | I'll attach some tonight. | 16:17 |
| yuriy | snap-l: since there's a script that supposedly fixes it, screenshots of how it should look would be good too | 16:20 |
| snap-l | Yeah, I'll put them all up | 16:22 |

| calc | bdmurray: i just followed up to it, it doesn't crash for me either on hardy-updates. the user claimed it looked weird under excel as well but didn't crash there | 18:09 |
| calc | so the fact the document is bad isn't a problem afaict, just the old crash | 18:09 |
| calc | but that looks like it is fixed now | 18:09 |
| bdmurray | a screenshot of what it looks like w/ excel might be interesting | 18:10 |
| bdmurray | but yeah not crashing is progress! | 18:10 |
| Old_Soldier | it limd of defeats the purpose of a test file :) and creates a new / different bug | 18:15 |
| Old_Soldier | *kind | 18:15 |
| Old_Soldier | ack must have coffee! | 18:15 |
| afflux | Is there a way to let E*Botu only announce new bugs which are not sync/merge requests? :) | 18:51 |
| james_w | it can be useful to see them. | 18:52 |
| afflux | probably | 18:53 |
| afflux | I felt bored and scrolled through my scrollback in -bugs-announce, and I had the impression that 99% were sync requests :P | 18:53 |
| james_w | that's good! :-) | 18:54 |
| * thekorn did not know that -ananounce is active and usefull again | 18:54 | |
| afflux | for some weeks now, iirc | 18:55 |
| bdmurray | james_w: hi there | 18:57 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, hi! | 18:58 |
| bdmurray | thekorn: hello, how are things with you? | 18:58 |
| james_w | hi bdmurray | 18:59 |
| james_w | hi thekorn | 18:59 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, good, lot's of soccer here in europe :) | 18:59 |
| afflux | wuuuh, yeah, we won yesterday, yeah!!1111 :P | 18:59 |
| thekorn | hi james_w | 18:59 |
| bdmurray | I've updated my greasemonkey patches script - http://people.ubuntu.com/~brian/greasemonkey/lp_patches.user.js | 19:00 |
| bdmurray | It now identifies patches in bug comments not just in the attachments portlet | 19:00 |
| afflux | school was fun today... holidays started today, so it was the last day, we got our reports and so on, and most people were boozed :) | 19:00 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, I recently experimented with javascript and greasemonkey, I started a script which integrats the activitilog in the main bugpage, | 19:01 |
| thekorn | so you see each log item in a comment box | 19:01 |
| thekorn | like in other bug tracker | 19:02 |
| thekorn | +s | 19:02 |
| bdmurray | that might be neat, especially seeing who modified the description | 19:02 |
| thekorn | yes, exactly and you can see the reaction of comments in a chronical order | 19:03 |
| thekorn | but its not mature yet | 19:03 |
| thekorn | I've also done some work on py-lp-bugs | 19:04 |
| afflux | bdmurray: btw.: I intend to go to the EMEA board for ubuntu membership. It would be very nice if you could add some testimonials to my wikipage https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KjellBraden | 19:04 |
| afflux | bdmurray: I'm leaving for holidays on monday or tuesday, so no hurry ;) | 19:05 |
| bdmurray | afflux: okay, I don't see a specific section for testimonials | 19:05 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, my plan for the weekend is to reduce the number of unmerged branches of py-lp-bugs. and I'm not sure about the procedure: | 19:05 |
| afflux | hum, will create that in 20 mins.. | 19:05 |
| bdmurray | afflux: okay great, ping me when its ready for me | 19:06 |
| thekorn | should I merge them into a copy of the .main branch and then merge this copy back to .main | 19:06 |
| thekorn | or should I merge the changes directly to .main | 19:06 |
| bdmurray | thekorn: I think the bzr log is easier to parse if they are committed directly but james_w might know best | 19:07 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, note: some of this changes a really big and some of them are changeing the API | 19:07 |
| james_w | yep bdmurray is right | 19:07 |
| thekorn | or removing obviously unused features | 19:07 |
| james_w | however, if you want to set up a devel branch where you stage all of these big things for some integration testing then that works as well. | 19:08 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, some functions are so buggy, nobody seems to use them, else we would get lots of bugreports | 19:08 |
| bdmurray | If they are that large I think having a separate branch would be best as it could negatively effect apport | 19:09 |
| bdmurray | or the retracing service rather | 19:09 |
| thekorn | otherwise: if nobody uses this branch, we won't get real-life test results | 19:09 |
| bdmurray | I'm happy to test it, I'm just concerned about killing the retracer | 19:10 |
| thekorn | ok, | 19:10 |
| thekorn | so I will create a dev brach, | 19:11 |
| thekorn | merge changes, | 19:11 |
| thekorn | announce it, | 19:11 |
| thekorn | and after a week of testing merge it to .main | 19:11 |
| thekorn | btw, leonov is a new tool using py-lp-bugs! https://edge.launchpad.net/leonov | 19:12 |
| bdmurray | I've seen some stuff on planet about it. It looks neat | 19:12 |

| thekorn | bdmurray, damn, I forgot about this bug | 19:14 |
| bdmurray | thekorn: no problem, I understand | 19:15 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, there is an (optional) file which contains the name of the user, I named this file ~/.python-launchpad-bugs-cookie in this patch, | 19:17 |
| thekorn | but it is actually not a cookie, | 19:17 |
| thekorn | do you have a naming suggestion | 19:17 |
| bdmurray | maybe '.rc' or '.conf' | 19:19 |
| thekorn | ~/.python-launchpad-bugs.conf | 19:19 |
| bdmurray | that works for me | 19:20 |
| thekorn | james_w, is it know that 'bzr patch' is broken in hardy? | 19:22 |
| thekorn | or, better: do you know about it? | 19:23 |
| james_w | I didn't | 19:23 |
| james_w | what's the error? | 19:23 |
| thekorn | bzr: ERROR: bzrlib.plugins.bzrtools.errors.PatchFailed: | 19:24 |
| thekorn | will file a bugreport with all output | 19:24 |
| james_w | it's actually a bzrtools command, so can you file it against that package please? | 19:24 |
| thekorn | yes, ok, but then there is another bug: it says: Please report a bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+filebug | 19:25 |
| thekorn | :) | 19:25 |
| james_w | we can always reassign it, but if I can get you to do the work then it's easier for me :-) | 19:26 |
| thekorn | james_w, ok, it is bug 241738 | 19:29 |

| james_w | ah, ok, it is a bug | 19:29 |
| james_w | but the command won't apply a patch that won't apply cleanly | 19:29 |
| james_w | use --force to get the .rej etc. | 19:30 |
| thekorn | james_w, hmm, sorry, bzr patch --force <file> ? | 19:31 |
| james_w | yeah, I think so | 19:31 |
| thekorn | there is no --force for the patch command for me | 19:31 |
| james_w | there's something weird going on here | 19:35 |
| james_w | you don't happen to have bzr aliased to bzr -Derror do you? | 19:35 |
| james_w | ah no, the arguments are there | 19:36 |
| thekorn | no | 19:36 |
| james_w | do you have the .rej files? | 19:37 |
| james_w | I don't know why it is coming up with a backtrace, but it seems like this is intended behaviour | 19:39 |
| thekorn | james_w, I have .rej and the result looks also ok | 19:41 |
| thekorn | everything seems to be patched correct | 19:41 |
| thekorn | but it does not look userfreindly | 19:41 |
| james_w | yeah, you shouldn't have the backtrace. | 19:42 |
| james_w | I can't see why you do from looking at the code. I'm sure Aaron will know what's going on, so I'll leave it for him to look at. | 19:42 |

| thekorn | oh, yeah, you are right | 20:49 |
| bdmurray | I could ask for logs too but a packet trace seems easier | 20:49 |

| thekorn | but your comment between reporter and comment in the OPTION_DICT is still there | 21:44 |
| bdmurray | hmmm | 21:44 |
| bdmurray | might just be me then | 21:44 |

| bdmurray | is there a way to force p-lp-b to use http instead of https? | 21:46 |
| thekorn | bdmurray, no, I think there is no way to use launchpad via http:// | 21:51 |
| thekorn | http:// is always redirected to https:// | 21:51 |
| bdmurray | hrm, packet traces won't be that helpful then. ;) | 21:52 |

| thekorn | ok, looks good so far, | 22:35 |
| thekorn | but what do you think | 22:36 |
| thekorn | about changing the default value of "component" to None instead of "unknown" | 22:36 |
| thekorn | so you can do something like if not task.component: .... | 22:37 |
| thekorn | instead of if task.component == "unknown" | 22:37 |
| sbeattie | sure, happy to do that, that was my area of concern actually, of how to handle the case when the task doesn't have a component listed. | 22:38 |
| thekorn | sbeattie, if you change self._component = .... to self._component = value_dict.get("component", None) task.component will be none if there is no component listed | 22:39 |
| sbeattie | yep, just testing that out now. | 22:40 |
| sbeattie | thekorn: fixed and updated. | 22:41 |
| thekorn | sbeattie, ok, cool, looks good, then add yourself to AUTHORS and I will commit this patch :) | 22:45 |
| sbeattie | thekorn: sure thing, thanks! | 22:45 |
| thekorn | thank you! | 22:46 |
| thekorn | sbeattie, if you are using bzr, can you please run bzr diff > mypatch.diff so committing is easier for me ;) | 22:47 |
| sbeattie | thekorn: done and pushed to http://www.nxnw.org/~steve/warez/python-launchpad-bugs-add_component_to_task.patch | 22:50 |
| sbeattie | (I was using quilt rather than bzr diff to generate the patch, just out of familiarity. I have it set to generate -p1 patches by default) | 22:51 |
| thekorn | sbeattie, ok, thanks again, I will run some tests now, and than commit it | 22:53 |
