IdleOneNafallo, I am running alpha4 8.1000:00
IdleOneif you don't know the answer don't be a tool about it00:00
NafalloI don't actually...00:02
Nafalloshould be either preferred applications or some of the links in /etc/alternatives I'd imagine.00:02
bdrungi am running intrepid too, but in a virtual machine ;)00:02
IdleOnejust seems strange that firefox is the official browser used by ubuntu but epiphany loads up when clicking on a link00:03
Nafallonot really00:03
bdrungIdleOne: did you look into gnome-default-applications-properties?00:04
Nafalloif it's alternatives it's likely to be the last browser installed that sets it.00:04
asachmm ... thats the second time that someone reported that epiphany took over ;)00:12

daggettanyone can tell me how to use the thunderbird tool to suppress spam from folder ?15:41
daggettmine is inactive15:42
daggettand I can't use it, but sometimes I can use it and dont know why15:42
asacdaggett: ?15:44
asacyou need to enable spam filtering15:44
asacthere is an option in the menu somewhere15:44
asacdaggett: in account settings -> junk settings15:45
asacthere you can configure adaptive junk mail15:46
asacremember that youz need to train tbird first15:46
* asac break15:46
daggettasac: thanks but it's already active, in fact this option used to be available, but since some update it's greyed most of the time and sometimes it's available15:48
daggettI don't understand this behaviour15:49
daggettit should not be greyed at all any time15:49
daggettasac: ok I suppressed the .thunderbird folder in my home and all went back to normal15:54
asacdaggett: suppressed? what does that mean?15:55
* asac afk15:55
daggettrm -rf /home/daggett/.thunderbird15:56
daggettasac: that's what I did15:56
daggettI made a copy of that folder just in case15:56
asacthats not suppress, but remove ;)15:56
asacdaggett: if .thunderbird matters, then you are not using ubuntu builds15:56
daggettwell... yes15:57
asacbetter ask in mozilla support channels15:57

ftahi17:32
asachi17:34
ftawhat's up ?17:39
ftaasac, i see you have activated the plugin pref, does that mean the ui is ready?17:40
asacno. but the pref works ;)17:40
asacthe ui is also just a matter of doing. all issues are sorted17:40
asacwell ... not all, but all blockers imo17:40
asaci hope to get all new features in by feature-freeze + 1w17:42
asacunfortunately, as it looks now, kde-integration will not make it17:43
asacits better done in 3.1 anyway17:43
ftai wanted to do a 3.1+qt but i'm not sure how17:44
asacfta: does it work?17:44
asaci mean in general?17:44
ftasupposed to17:44
ftai has been merged in trunk17:44
ftait17:44
asacis that in libxuL?17:45
asacor did they move that to a separate component?17:45
asacoh i completely forgot about one important feature ;)17:46
asacthe unbranded browser thing :)17:46
ftahttp://browser.garage.maemo.org/news/10/ff3qt.png17:46
asacnice17:47
ftait's activated using --enable-default-toolkit=cairo-qt instead of our cairo-gtk217:48
asacyeah. most likely it really is libxul where this ends up in17:48
ftayes17:48
asacfta: do they have their own theme?17:49
asace.g. kdestripe?17:49
asacor are they using the old winstripe theme thing?17:50
ftaseems it uses gnomestripe17:52
asacgood17:53
ftahttp://hg.mozilla.org/index.cgi/mozilla-central/rev/4a506fa751d8f89f0abc93662cb5ad805b9f24c517:53
asacso most likely still depends on gtk?+17:53
asace.g. ldd on libxul.so ?17:53
ftai wanted to do it like totem. ie, totem is a metapackage for totem-gstreamer (default) and totem-xine17:56
ftanot sure about -dev17:57
ftawill it work for both ?17:57
asaclet me get the tree17:57
ftahmm, http://jtechinda.blogspot.com/2008/08/firefox-qt-packages-hit-kubuntu.html17:59
ftashould we let that diverge ?18:00
asacno18:01
asacthat guy needs to be get in here ;)18:01
ftait's apachelogger18:01
ftahm, it's a plain ff build, not ff+xul18:01
asacfta: yeah ... i just summoned him in -deve18:02
asacl18:02
asaci wonder if there is a tool to split .so files post-linkage18:11
ftasounds crazy18:14
asacyeah probably is18:14
ftahttp://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-flock-web-browser-in-ubuntu-hardy.html18:14
asacfta: is your package working?18:17
ftano, it's 1.2, i did 2.018:18
asackk18:18
fta1.2 is based on ff218:19
asacxulrunner doesnt support qt yes. just firefox18:20
asacat least the build probably fails18:20
ftahm ?18:20
asachttp://paste.ubuntu.com/40209/18:20
asacno qt toolkit in there18:20
asacso the XLIBS will miss during linkage i guess18:21
asacifneq (,$(filter gtk gtk2 xlib,$(MOZ_WIDGET_TOOLKIT)))18:21
asac-> ifneq (,$(filter qt gtk gtk2 xlib,$(MOZ_WIDGET_TOOLKIT)))18:21
asac(most likely)18:21
ftait was expected, as usual18:21
asacwell. maybe it works. but looking at make files it looks like that block is for "linux/unix" in general and not for just gtk18:21
asacanyway. what i think is that we can build everything as normal and then try to redo libxul.so by rebuilding those subtrees with tweaked variables18:22
asacand toolkit/library of course18:23
asacat least worth a try18:23
asacthen we can divert libxul.so by the -qt package18:23
asachmm toolkit/remote needs to be rebuild as well as it seems18:24
asacwhy do we need toolkit specific remote things?18:24
asacits just X iirc18:24
asachmm widget/qt/ as well ... too bad18:25
asacwell ... the module appears to have its own namespace18:25
asacso we can just built it and link it into the qt thing18:25
asac(should work quite out of the box)18:25

asaci finally have to figure if i can do the anti-flash detection kit thing18:38
asachehe18:42
asaci should really setup my development environment again. building packages to test a single line is just bad18:42
asacfta: is there a mozilla-central branch for 1.9.0 branch`18:43
asac?18:43
ftai don't think so18:43
ftait's still in cvs18:43
asacapparently not18:43
ftahm, i still see that bzr upgrade warning18:44
asacfta: yeah. that wont go away until we upgrade i guess18:44
asacfta: you have a fast line?18:44
ftayes18:44
asachmm. i think i should do it from within the canonical net18:45
asacfta: can you create backups from the branches that we want to upgrade?18:45
asacill do backups too .. in case something goes wrong18:46
ftayou mean, on lp ?18:46
asacand then run bzr upgrade18:46
ftaor locally ?18:46
asacno .. i mean: bzr branch the latest to your disc18:46
asaclocally i think#18:46
asacfta: well. you can also push them to ~fta18:46
asac;)18:46
asaclet me create a ssh key on an internal  machine18:46
asacfta: ok. lets try with https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/songbird/songbird.head18:49

ftadefault is good18:52
asachttp://paste.ubuntu.com/40218/18:52

asacfta: ok worked. a fresh branch is pack-0.92 now18:54
asacfta: what branch next? xulrunner-1.9.1? or another low-risk branch?18:54

asacalso i told the bzr launchpad crew that we broke their http syncs ;)21:09
asacthe latest upgrades dont even show up in the "error" way like the others21:09

asaci also tried to do bzr diff -c REVISION21:12

asaci still have the backups ;)21:12
asacif you find a bug let me know :(21:12

asacok i tarr that up and copy it to the people.ubutnu.com webserver ;)21:13
ftathere's no real backup for lp ?21:15
asacthere is21:15
asacbut invoking that is probably quite cumbersome ;)21:15

asacok ... what a job ;)21:18
asacupgrading bzr branches21:18
asacdefinitly worth mentioning in monthly mozillateam report :)21:18
asaci hope that bzr can settle on a final branch format soon21:20
asacbut there is already --rich-root and --rich-root-pack (e.g. pack 1.6) that will probably be the next thing :(21:21
asaca bit scary imo21:22
ftagood thing is there's far less files in .bzr now.21:24
asacyeah ;)(21:24
asaceverything should be much faster now21:24
asacespecially the initial branch21:24
asacand merging21:25
asacbut --rich-root scares me a lot21:25
asaci couldnt upgrade my network-manager branch (which is a full source branch)21:25
asacand i couldnt merge from the new rich-root upstream thing21:25
asac(which is the used format on the official gnome bzr mirror)21:25
asachttp://bzr-mirror.gnome.org/NetworkManager/trunk/21:25
asacotherwise thats really great21:26
asacit even attempted to make the trunk and branches related21:26
asacof course merges cannot be detected that great in svn21:26
ftadoesn't gnome have a good front end for gdb ?21:28

ftasomething like ddd but in gtk21:29

asacisnt that just a X window with a gdb shell in pricinpal?21:30

verwilstahah21:46
verwilstso i wasnt going crazy ;)21:46
asacwell ... i looked in the packages files21:46
asacon the server21:46
verwilstit sucks because firefox is the sore spot in hardy21:46
verwilstit drives my newly semi-volunteer ubuntu-ified girlfriend crazy21:47
asaclets look in the pool21:47
ftait's not there21:47
* verwilst looks21:47
ftahttp://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/x/xulrunner-1.9/21:47
asactse21:47
asacthat s**ks21:47
ftabug pitti21:47
verwilstyeah i checked that before the weekend too, when i was having troubles as well21:47
asacyeah. though i think that has something to do with how the .3 was released21:48
asacjdstrand attempted to pocket-copy it from -upstreawm to security21:48
asacmost likely that removed the ddebs from there21:48
asacro something21:48
asachowever it failed and thus it needed a full respin in security21:48
verwilstwhere can i find this pitti guy? :)21:48
asacverwilst: well. i'll take care of that21:48
asacverwilst: for now you need to build the packages on your own21:48
asacwhich is really really painful, i understand that21:49
asac;)21:49
verwilstwtf21:49
verwilstii  xulrunner-dbgsym                           1.8.1.13+nobinonly-0ubuntu1                        debug symbols for package xulrunner21:49
verwilst1.8.1?21:49
asacthats the old branch21:49
verwilstyeah..21:49
asacyou dont need those21:49
verwilstbut..21:49
verwilsti compiled them myself? :P21:49
asacyeah21:49
* verwilst is dazed and confused21:49
asacthat means you have the wrong ones ;)21:49
verwilsti apt-get sourced firefox3 so..21:50
asacwhich explains why you have no symbols for libxul21:50
* verwilst rechecks21:50
verwilstyeah21:50
asacverwilst: firefox-3.0 and xulrunner-1.9 are the sources21:50
asacso good news ;)21:50
asacthough the non existing dbgsym packages are really devastating ;)21:50
verwilstfirefox-3.0-dbgsym_3.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.3_i386.ddeb21:50
asacno doubt that piled up a bunch of not-retraced crash reports :(21:50
asacverwilst: yes. thats correct21:51
verwilstthat's the one my recompile gave me21:51
asachowever, firefox has almost no binary code ;)21:51
verwilstand which i installed i figure21:51
asacso you need xulrunner-1.921:51
verwilstgoddamn :)21:51
asacverwilst: yeah. but firefox-3.0 isnt important for backtraces ;)21:51
asacall C++ code is in xulrunner-1.921:51
verwilstdownloading21:52
asacshould take 20-40 minutes depending your system21:52
verwilstwell, i remember i installed xulrunner dbgsym's as well21:52
asacverwilst: if you want to use multiple cores you can build with:21:52
asacdpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -j321:52
verwilsti never figured to check the version too :)21:52
asacin case you dont know21:52
verwilstah i usually do debuild21:53
asacverwilst: not sure if debuild has the same option21:53
asacverwilst: but since hardy only dpkg-buildpackage gives you a generic built .... ;)21:53
asacso better use that21:53
asacdebuild misses to inject some options21:53
verwilstdpkg-buildpackage in the source package?21:53
asacyes like above21:53
asac(just like debuild)21:53
asacdpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -j321:54
asac(for 2 cores)21:54
verwilstc2d yeah21:54
asacdpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -j621:54
asacfor 4 cores ;)21:54
verwilsta 8400, so should be plenty fast :)21:54
asacwhat is 8400?21:54
verwilstcore 2 duo 840021:54
asacah21:54
verwilst3ghz21:54
asacyeah. youll see21:54
asac;)21:54
asacverwilst: run:21:55
asactime dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -j321:55
asacand let me know ;)21:55
verwilsthm21:55
* verwilst ctrl-c's21:55
asachehe21:55
asacverwilst: oh21:55
asactime dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -j3 -b21:55
verwilsthow do i clean it?21:55
asacso you just build the binaries ;)21:55
asaci dont care aobut source package cvreation21:55
verwilstor does it restart from scratch?21:55
asacverwilst: fakeroot ./debian/rules clean21:55
asacno ... you shoul clean it to get a good time ;)21:55
verwilstit's off21:56
asacgood ;)21:56
verwilsthm, i miss my distro dev days21:56
asachehe21:56
verwilstonly know the basics at debian dev'ing21:56
verwilstwhich sucks21:56
verwilst( been gentoo dev for 3 years, a long time ago :) ) best linux time of my life hehe21:57
asachehe21:57
verwilstmy girlfriend's ubuntu crashes sometimes 10 times in a few hours21:58
asacarmin76 is gentoo guy still21:58
verwilstalways firefox21:58
verwilsti quit after 3 years21:58
asacthough i think he will switch to binary distribution once he realizes that that makes more sense ;)21:58
verwilstit was a time when anyone could get cvs access, if they just asked21:58
verwilsta lot of core devs quit then21:58
asacverwilst: girlfriends problem is most likely flash21:58
verwilstyeah it is21:58
asacverwilst: if libflashsupport is installed it would crash every 30 minutes21:59
verwilstbut still, i cant tell her not to use it :)21:59
asacverwilst: you can try to use nspluginwrapper from mozillateam ppa21:59
verwilstwell, it's better now21:59
asacthat should make firefox go down more rarely21:59
verwilstflash 10 rc, and asound.conf configured21:59
asachmm21:59
verwilstit's a lot better now, and at least she has sound in all apps21:59
asacgood21:59
verwilstwhich was pretty embarrassing21:59
asacwell. flash is crap22:00
asacgnash is getting better ;)22:00
asaci hope intrepid it will be good and in intrepid+1 installed by default ;)22:00
verwilstyou switch someone to linux from windows, and then have to tell her she cant listen to her music and youtube at the same time22:00
verwilstpretty awkward22:00
armin76yuck22:00
asacdoes that work now?22:00
verwilst( not to mention the constant crashes )22:00
verwilstyeah, it does now22:01
asacok22:01
verwilsttook a while to find out though22:01
asacwell pulseaudio was a mess imho22:01
verwilstpulseaudio is nice22:01
asacyes, but all the issues we had are because of pulseaudio :)22:01
verwilstbut the handling @ ubuntu could be better :)22:01
asacpulse needs to mature ... maybe not on its own, but all the integration22:01
verwilstyeah22:01
verwilstofcourse flash was the main bottleneck22:02
verwilstand still is22:02
asacwell, flash 9 wasnt possible to make working with pulse22:02
asacso  @ubuntu couldnt do better22:02
verwilstdamned proprietary crap22:02
asacand flash is also one of the main thing (if not the only thign) that causes problems here22:02
verwilstyeah i know22:02
verwilstflash and skype i guess22:02
asaceverything else uses pulse and thuse doesnt cause tht many issues22:02
verwilstbut flash 10 seems to be a lot better22:02
asacyes, but if skype uses sync alsa  then the pulse plugin would have worked22:02
verwilstthat's actually the upside of moonlight22:03
verwilstit's open source22:03
asacbut for flash even that wasnt possible22:03
asacwhat is open source? flash 10`22:03
verwilst( that's pretty much the only upside i can find for it but hey )22:03
verwilstmoonlight22:03
verwilstmicrosoft's "let's copy flash and call it an innovation" crap22:03
asacurgh22:03
asacwell. better stick to gnash22:03
asacor swfdec if you want22:03
asacyou can do most things there. you just have to take care that you dont use flash bugs ;)22:04
verwilsti cant give gnash to my girl22:04
asacyes. but microsofts flash replacement wont work too in those cases22:04
verwilstit's too immature22:04
verwilsthow's that?22:04
verwilstnovell is creating a mono counterpart eh22:04
verwilstopen source22:04
verwilstmoonlight = silverlight, FOSS22:04

apacheloggerawfully long channel name :P23:06
apacheloggerhey everyone23:06
asachi apachelogger23:07
ftaho23:08
ftahi23:08
asacapachelogger: you are interested in qt builds for firefox 3.1?23:08
apacheloggerasac: that involves work, doesn't it?23:09
asacapachelogger: not sure. you published builds ;)23:10
apacheloggerasac: they are a pretty hackish adoption of the firefox source package23:11
apacheloggerthe Qt integration isn't at a stage where I would want to spend a lot of time on packaging it23:12
asacapachelogger: well. if they are not use worthy, then please dont publish them. they get on user systems and might cause support work23:13
apacheloggerI published them mentioning the danger and unsuability23:14
asacsure. thats ok. however, that doesnt matter once the people get issues ;)23:15
asacat best let us take a look before you publish such ;) ... its not much additional work to make them play good in the packaging eco system ;)23:15
apacheloggerwell23:16
apacheloggerit does play well23:16
apacheloggerthe worst thing that can happen is that it eats the .mozilla dir23:16
asacwhich is bad enough ;)23:16
apacheloggerin fact, it's most likely that it does that :D23:16
apacheloggerI tried to change the config dir to .mozilla-qt but that didn't work all that much23:16
asacapachelogger: we will publish such packages as soon as they are test worthy. if you want to help, you are welcome.23:17
asacchanging the profile dir isnt a big problem if you know how that is done23:17
apacheloggerif you have to do anything but poke the configure script it's bad implemented :P23:17
asacapachelogger: anyway. all i want to say is that if you are interested in firefox packaging, do it here. its much more efficient and helps people more23:18
apacheloggersure, the current package is really just for bleeding edge users, who can't stop killing their system23:18
asacapachelogger: could you remove them anyway?23:18
asacsuch packages go around in the world23:18
asacand they come back informs of bugs23:19
asacand after hours of asking and trying to figure users suddenly remember ... oh i had that package installed in the past23:19
asacsuch things happen frequently23:19
apacheloggerI could, but I wouldn't feel very comfortable23:19
asacapachelogger: why?23:19
apacheloggerI rather have people use packages which work somewhat than have them use checkinstall packages23:20
asacno ... packages that work somehow are worth23:20
apacheloggerand these are almost certain to appear in this case23:20
asacworse23:20
asacmake install adds an addition barrier that users have to go23:20
apacheloggercheckinstall doesn't23:21
asacanyway. would be good if you could remove that package. i dont mind about checkinstall. debs floating on the net are just worse23:22
asacpeople look for it, and install it. reading no announcement and nothing23:22
apacheloggerwell23:22
apacheloggercheckinstall creates the debs that are floating23:22
apacheloggerasac: we have stated very clearly that these packages and the entire repository they reside in is super experimental and really not meant for producation systems23:23
asacit always can be worse and i cannot talk into people that i have no chance to talk to23:23
asacapachelogger: people blog about that package23:23
asacthats how we found it23:23
apacheloggerasac: got the URL at hand?23:24
asacand that causes attention. people dont look at what the repository is about. they install23:24
apacheloggeranyway, I understand your POV and will discuss the removal with the kubuntu ninjas23:24
asacand that causes pain for the ubuntu distributions in form of bugs23:24
asacand wierd support requests23:24
asacapachelogger: you uploaded that package.23:24
apacheloggernothing stops people from using the binary23:25
apacheloggerwhich will just as well rape the .mozilla dir23:25
asacdoesnt matter. everything that comes from *ubuntu-* whatever on launchpad should go through mozilllateam. i can only try to get the pieces together that are more or less remotely realted to ubuntu.23:26
asacanyway. think about it. if kubuntu-experimental is an effort that is affiliated with kubuntu then this package surely has to go. otherwise i can only hope that you do it ;)23:26
apacheloggerI'll do my best to find an appropriate solution23:27
asacapachelogger: http://jtechinda.blogspot.com/2008/08/firefox-qt-packages-hit-kubuntu.html23:27
asacapachelogger: if you are affiliated with kubuntu, remove it. if you are an independent group, do what you want23:28
asacthanks23:28
asacoh. you are ubuntu-dev .... you really have to remove it then23:29
apacheloggeryeah23:29
apacheloggeror leave the project23:29
asachehe23:29
asacwell23:29
asacno need to do that23:30
ftano need to go that far. I initially wanted to merge our efforts, i.e., make the firefox-3.1 / xulrunner-1.9.1 packages i currently maintain do QT in a way or another.23:32
asacapachelogger: i dont want to enforce anything here ... its not important enough. i just thought that ubuntu-dev members understand distro issues that can come from such packages ... so only thin i do here is to appeal to you that it makes more sense to do it in the mozillateam23:32
asacapachelogger: so. just line up with fta ;)23:33
* apachelogger moves in line23:33
fta:)23:34
apacheloggerfta: it's Qt, btw... QT is QuickTime ;-)23:34
asacwow, i only knew quicktime for windows :-D23:34
ftaapachelogger, you got my point. btw, it's still not clear how we could do gtk and Qt packages without rebuilding everything twice. it sure needs some patches. but that's the probably the way to go, even if the Qt part is not polished yet, it would benefit from the work we do on the main packages23:38
asacfta: is there any way to fix the fortify crash without rebuilding everything?23:39
asacdid the PATH_MAX*10 thing work?23:39
ftait did, last time i checked23:39
asacfta: but thats still an issue on 3.1?23:42
ftayes, the patch has not landed upstream23:44
asacfta: which patch ... the *10 thing?23:44
asacredhat guy said to me that it works for them with fortify 2 without any patch23:44
asaci dont understand all that23:44
ftalol, no, not my ugly workaround23:45
asacfta: is there another fix?23:45
ftahold on, firing bugzilla23:45
ftamozilla bug 41261023:47
ubottuMozilla bug 412610 in Startup and Profile System "MAXPATHLEN too small for glibc's realpath()" [Normal,New] http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41261023:47
ftalast att is "Fix based on the patch used in Fedora"23:47
asacwow23:47
asacapparently the mozilla guy at redhat doesnt know what they ship ;)23:48
fta"Fedora 9 (glibc-2.8 and gcc-4.3.0) on x86_64 requires the attachment 325441 [details] for getting well-worked firefox with the compiler option of -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=2."23:48
asacok ... so 4096 i typed manually should be ok23:48
asacgood23:49
asacso my manual patch did the same ;)23:49
ftaas good as my *1023:50
asacok ... let me think what i wanted to test ;)23:50
asacah ... anti-flash detection ;)23:50
