ftaasac, did you make any progress with the plan to run mozilla tests since UDS ?00:00
asacno ... except that everyone else wants to do it ;)00:01
asachowever, i dont consider that a feature that is bound to feature freeze00:02
ftaok00:06
asacwhatever we get up should be doable. i dont think that everything that requires hardware will be realistic to do00:07
asacour test center currently undergoes heavy restructuring00:07
asacand the team was moved to the distro team. so once they have finished that we probably can use their resources00:07
asacyay ... flash detection kit detection works ;)00:08
asacalso on youtube ;)00:08
asacno i have hope that all this might really work00:08
ftawhat was it all about ?00:09
asacfta: making the "missing plugins ..." thing appear when a website tries to be smart and uses flash detection kit to not get the puzzle00:13
ftaok, good00:14
ftacould that be used to swap flash plugins at runtime ? (ie gnash -> nonfree)00:14
asacfta: well. what we do at runtime is to display a plugin icon in the status bar. when you selec that you can change the plugin. which hopefully will work at runtime00:19
asacfta: the anti flash-detection-kit is used to trigger the plugin finder so provide users with the best user experience00:20
asace.g. dont get to adobes website, but to the plugin finder wizard00:20
asacboth together make a good proportion of the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FlashExperienceIntrepid spec00:20
asachmm ... so how can i dispatch an event globally easily :/00:23
asacok globally is wrong ... i have to figure from which document that event comes from00:34
asacerr event ... invocation ;)00:34
asachairy00:43
asacand scary ;)00:43
asacok letse hope that http://paste.ubuntu.com/40291/ is a good way ;)00:53
asacto get our event target from JSStack00:54
ftai'm too out of this code to be of any help00:56
asaci know .... its just talking to my self ;)00:56
asacnot sure why though00:56
ftai'm currently writing unit tests for my stuff, scratching my head to find good tests, and while doing so, i found a nasty bug00:57
asacoh ;)00:57
asacwell. usually the bugs you discover are the more interesting ones ,)00:57
asacits always impressive how much code there is in firefox ;)00:59
asac.. code you havent seen before though you were sure you looked at almost everything ;)01:00
asaci thought i always understood how all this JSContext things worked ... but now that I want to rip the guts out of it i dont find the places so i can verify the theory i had in mind01:00
asaci think thats probably because most backports i did that required to guess which scoped called a function were for the 1.7 branch ... and now things have changed considerably01:02
asacmore macros :(01:02
ftasome parts are awfully complex and not doing much. looks like code piled up for years01:05
ftayeah, i fixed my bug.01:06
ftaunit tests are good for me01:06
asacright. actually thats why i signed up for mozilla stuff ... see how a large code base evolves and gets improved over time01:08
asacfta: the craziest refactoring will be the death of nsCOMPtr ;)01:08
asacwhich benjamin plans to do at some point01:08
asace.g. making everything garbage collected ... aka no ref counting anymore01:09
ftai thought it was ready, that's why i started the moz2 branches, but it never happened01:09
asaci asked him during summit and he said its likely post moz201:09
ftalol01:09
asacfar too intrusive ;)01:10
ftathat was supposed to be the whole point of moz201:10
asacbut he managed to get a first pitch done01:10
ftabe intrusive01:10
asacwith not too much manual tranformation01:10
asacproducing 100M diffs ;)01:10
asacfta: there is no moz2 branch anymore, is there?01:11
ftacorrect01:11
asacmaybe they will go for 1.9.2 1.9.3 ;) ... who knows01:11
asacso maybe moz2 will indeed have that. its just _far_ away01:12
ftaor if there is, it's in ~users01:12
asacmy guess is that the shorter release cycle they go for now, will make intrusive changes even less likely01:13
asactoo much new features land that constantly would need to be side merged to a long diverged branch01:13
asacexcept that you can constantly work on a refactoring tool ... and then at some point do the migration all at once01:14
asacwithout breaking a 9 month release cycle ;)01:14
ftai would like to see CSS3 and SVG1.1 complete, and some HTML5, before they start breaking everything01:14
asacotoh, breaking trunk for ages isnt good for "normal" contributors either01:14
asactrue01:15
asacha01:18
asaci found it ;)01:18
asacnsContentUtils has the "GetDocumentOfCaller" convenience function01:18
asacgood that i didnt give up and copy the code i found elsewhere ;)01:18
asachttp://paste.ubuntu.com/40295/01:19
asacok i need FromCaller i guess ;)01:20
asacerr, Context i mean01:21
ftaok, I call it a day. I need some sleep01:26
ftanight01:26
asacsleep well01:28
XioNoXHi !09:01
XioNoXasac ?10:00
asacXioNoX: oh sorry. didnt look in this window ;)10:27
asacXioNoX: how are you?10:27
XioNoXasac, fine :D10:28
XioNoXasac, and you ? good weekend ?10:28
asacmore or less :-D10:29
XioNoXso, what can I do for my last day of internship ?10:29
asacXioNoX: i fixed the xulrunner patch (to select thedefault plugin by pref)10:29
asac... the backend ...10:30
XioNoXok10:30
XioNoXso I have to compile it again ?10:30
asacXioNoX: when you want to test it yes.10:30
asacXioNoX: otherwise, just cleanup your wizard thing.10:30
asaclet me know when ready ;(10:30
asac;)10:30
XioNoXit is clean now10:30
XioNoXbut there are 2 bugs10:31
asacXioNoX: oh. good10:31
XioNoX:(10:31
asacwhich `10:31
asac?10:31
XioNoXfirst,the overlay thing don't seem to give all the mimetypes present on the page to the window10:32
asacyou sure?10:33
XioNoXsecondly, it seam that the overlay save the mimetypes on the same array, but I'm not sure10:33
asacwell ... it gives you the mimetypes of those that have a plugin installed ... e.g. if you dont have a plugin for video/avi you wont see it10:33
XioNoXnot at 100% but it seam to10:33
gnomefreakgood morning10:34
asachi gnomefreak10:34
XioNoXmorning !10:34
asacXioNoX: i dont understand secondly10:34
asac ;)10:34
asacXioNoX: at best push that thing up so i can test it10:35
* gnomefreak really hates when things fix themselves10:35
asacgnomefreak: why ... thats good ;)10:35
* asac would like to see everything getting fixed on their own10:35
gnomefreakasac: knowing the problem would help10:35
gnomefreakits fixed ;)10:36
asactrue. but if its gone, there is no problem anymore ,)+10:36
XioNoXasac, Pushed up to revision 102.10:37
gnomefreakasac: true now i shoudl run lintain on it before pushing to reve i guess10:39
* gnomefreak though lintian is run on *_source.changes10:41
gnomefreakthought10:41
asacXioNoX: ok. what we want to do is to look at the name of the plugins10:48
XioNoXIt is what I've done10:48
XioNoXno ?10:48
asacand if its either "Shockwave Flash" or "Shockwave Flash 2" ... or "Windows Media Player Plug-in 10"10:49
asac(if it starst like that) ... then use the description10:49
asacinstead of the name10:49
asacfor the other mime-types the name should be fine10:49
asac(ill fix the description of gnash, which is just ridiculous=10:49
XioNoXI don't understand10:49
asacXioNoX: dont use the name, but the description10:51
asacif they have one of the names abover10:51
asac(to be exact, if the names start with the names above)=10:51
asacinstall gnash and you will see10:52
asacit has the same name and we cannot change it10:52
asacthus we need to display the description10:52
gnomefreakmaybe dpatch wanted me to patch rules insteaad of make changes to it :(10:53
asacXioNoX: if you dont have gnash in about:plugins do:10:58
asac sudo ln -s /usr/lib/gnash/libgnashplugin.so /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/10:59
asaconce you see both flashs there you will see what i mean in the wizard10:59
asacXioNoX: once you have that we can get to the second bug ;).... if you select a drop down it appears to always use the first menu entry11:00
asaconce that is fixed, it should be usable ;)11:00
asacXioNoX: and third, for the "not all mime-types displayed", we have http://paste.ubuntu.com/40389/11:10
asacwhich basically resets the array on each and every event11:10
asacXioNoX: http://paste.ubuntu.com/40390/ (<- patch for "third" issue)11:12
gnomefreakwe should really add a search for revu11:16
asacXioNoX: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11:22
asacthats the fix including the 2nd issue11:22
asacthe rest is for you ;)11:22
asacalso when i first click on the first of the two content types, somehow the order of the table flips11:23
asaccausing confusion11:23
gnomefreakasac: someone in -motu is looking for you11:37
asacyeah11:37
gnomefreakok just making sur eyou knew11:38
asaci didnt ;)11:38
asacbut the red flash light was flashing here ... so i probably could have found out ;)11:38
XioNoXasac, sorry, some appartement problems11:41
XioNoXok, I see, Gnash sucks11:42
XioNoXthe best isn't to report a bug to gnash directly ?11:42
asacXioNoX: hey ;)11:43
asacthats currently not the topc11:43
XioNoXbut the name of the gnash plugin don't have to be "shokwave flash"....11:43
asacXioNoX: it has to11:44
asacXioNoX: there is not choice11:44
asacXioNoX: we need to use the description for flash and the microsoft mime-type above11:44
XioNoXwhy ?11:44
asacXioNoX: because the flash detection kit uses it11:44
asacits used by websites to detect on whether to try to display flash at all11:44
asacthis sucks, but thats how it is11:44
asacso gnash has to use exactly the same name as adobe flash11:45
XioNoXbut the plugin's name is not the same as the description of the mimetype11:45
asacXioNoX: no ... not the description of the mime type -> the description of the plugin11:45
asacon the left side you display the description of the mime-type ... thats find11:45
XioNoXt has bo be like that ?11:45
asacfine11:45
asacyes.11:45
asacXioNoX: special case the two mime types above for now11:46
XioNoXok11:46
asacthe otherse can use the plugiun name11:46
asacXioNoX: i will make flash folks use a saner description that can be displayed there11:46
asacXioNoX: hmm ... maybe just do it for Flash11:46
asacdont do the microsoft thing11:46
XioNoXbut for exemple, the video/avi can have different plugins who manage it11:47
asacits not worth it and the totem name at least has totem in the name11:47
XioNoXand with différent names...11:47
asacsure11:47
asacall fine. just use name everywhere except for flash11:47
asacwhere we have to use the description somewhat11:47
asacXioNoX: the following idea:11:48
asacdisplay the name and in a second line the filename11:48
asacthat would be a good compromise11:48
asac;)11:48
asacat best even three lines:11:48
asac1. name11:48
asac2. filename11:48
asac3. description ;)11:48
asacis that possible?11:48
XioNoXI don't know, it depend of the xbl...11:49
XioNoX1 thing, you sayd :11:49
XioNoX<asac> at best even three lines:11:49
XioNoX<asac> 1. name11:49
XioNoX<asac> 2. filename11:49
XioNoX<asac> 3. description ;)11:49
XioNoX<asac> is that possible?11:49
asacXioNoX: yeah.11:49
XioNoXsorry11:49
XioNoX<asac> XioNoX: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11:49
XioNoX<asac> thats the fix including the 2nd issue11:49
asacXioNoX: right. apply that patch first11:49
asaccommit that (after removing the alerts)11:50
asacand then lets fix the appearence:11:50
XioNoXwhich patch ?11:50

verwilstguys11:55
verwilstwww.tempomusic.be11:55
verwilstcould you try this?11:55
verwilstit should crash when you enter the site11:55
asacwhat will happen there?11:55
asacverwilst: flash11:55
verwilstdrives my girlfriend crazy11:55
verwilstyeah11:55
asac(without looking)11:55
verwilstcould you try too?11:55
asacwhy?11:55
verwilstthe first page works11:55
asaci dont even have flash installed ;)11:55
verwilstto see wether it's reproducible11:55
asac(at the moment)11:55
verwilstwell then, a reason more to try ;)11:55
asacverwilst: as i said: install nspluginwrapper11:55
verwilstmyeah.. i guess ill have to11:56
asachttps://edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive11:56
verwilstthen only nspluginwrapper will crash eh11:56
asacyes11:56
asaconly the flash video that causes the pain will go down11:56
asacverwilst: another idea is to consider to use flashblock11:56
asacso your girlfriend can enable individual files she actually wants to see11:56
asacbut most likely nspluginwrapper should be good enough11:57
verwilstasac: so nspluginwrapper11:57
asacverwilst: so 1. install nspluginwrapper 2. sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree11:57
verwilstthat's it?11:57
verwilstdo i need the ppa?11:57
asacyes11:57
verwilstor is it in the normal distro as well?11:58
asacverwilst: you can just download the nspluginwrapper deb11:58
verwilstwhat's changed there?11:58
asacand sudo dpkg -i it11:58
verwilst1.0.0 i guess11:58
asacverwilst: the change is that its now avaialble for i386 as well11:58
asacverwilst: no ... for hardy there is 0.9.x11:58
verwilst( it's flash 10.0 rc btw, but that shouldnt matter? )11:58
verwilstand she will still have full sound? :)11:58
asacnot sure. in worst case you can downgradne and install libflashsupport11:58
asacto get sound11:58
verwilsthm11:59
asacthat should work because the flash crashes only come when you leave a website containing flash11:59
verwilstthis whole flash situation sucks so bad :P11:59
asacverwilst: yeah.11:59
verwilstwhen i leave?11:59
asacyes. so it doesnt matter anymore that flash crashes everytime with libflashsupport with nspluginwarpper ;)11:59
verwilstis the libflashcrap crashing when it cleans up?11:59
asacyou can still see the video ... when you leave the page flash will crash silently, without taking firefox down12:00
verwilstheh12:00
verwilstgood stuffs.. :|12:00
asacgive it a try12:00
verwilsti hope the situation is improved with intrepid? :)12:00
asacmaybe nspluginwrapper works with 10 rc112:00
asacyes12:00
verwilstwe'll soon find out12:00
asacsound will work12:00
asacat least thats the promise ;)12:00
asacif that doesnt happen i will work as hard as possible to get someones head squashed for that12:01
XioNoXasac, going to eat, the patch works perfectly12:01
asacXioNoX: right. now fix the appearence like discussed12:01
asac;)12:01
asacenjoy your lunch12:01
XioNoXyep12:01
XioNoXthx ;)12:02

verwilstso intrepid has flash + sound + crashlessness out of the box ? :)12:19
asacverwilst: at least the crashes wont be in firefox i hope ;)12:19
asacand sound might just be broken on the alsa/kernel level :)12:20
asaccrimsun is working on fixing all the nice sound bugs :)12:20

asac_fta: i think sispoty asked you something on motu-council about your vision of motu vs. mozillateam13:28
asac_did you get that mail? if so please ask him to forward it to you so you can reply13:29
asac_sispoty == Stefan Potyra13:29
=== asac_ is now known as asac
thunderstruckasac: how would i go about getting rid of the native package warning/error?13:50
=== thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak
asacgnomefreak: you need to be sure that you have an orig.tar.gz and a diff.gz14:08
gnomefreakasac: i dont think i did since i used svn but thanks ill look at it later i have to meet up with my lawyer soon14:16
gnomefreakyep just upstream dir. and the packages that i built and .diff isnt one of them for some reason i guess since there was no upstream tarball that could be why. maybe i should tar up the upstream dir that way i have atleast a tarball and dpkg should build a diff with that. ill work on it later today.14:21
gnomefreaklooks like a mix of clients14:23
gnomefreakok play with that later maybe make it easy to stradle servers, later guys/gals14:24
XioNoXback ;)14:35
XioNoXasac, I've pushed you patch14:50
asacXioNoX: good14:51
asacXioNoX: ok. now fix the description thing ... try to make the menu items "multi-line"14:53
XioNoXok an fix the "director" bug14:54
XioNoXwhich show an empty label for missing plugins14:55
XioNoXand whow at least the mimetype14:55
XioNoXasac, I was trying to fix an non exixting bug...15:08
XioNoXasac, in this page : http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/15:08
XioNoXthe window get an empty mimetype15:08
XioNoX,application/x-shockwave-flash : see the ","15:09
XioNoXasac, I dont think that we can easily new lines :/15:18
asacXioNoX: cant we filter mime-types that are emtpy?15:34
asacand just forget about them?15:34
asacjdstrand: welcome back ;)15:34
asacjdstrand: uploads to -security that get pocket copied apparently dont have -dbgsym packages ... is that known?15:35
asacjdstrand: quite unfortunate as we now dont have any dbg package sfor the current ones at all ;)15:35
asac(not your fault ... just curious if that is known)15:37
jdstrandasac: hi! thanks15:38
jdstrandasac: it is not known to me15:38
jdstrandasac: I'll look into it15:38

XioNoXsorry, nothing pushed16:05
asacah16:06
asacok16:06
XioNoXbut what can I do for the flips ?16:06
asacXioNoX: not sure. i think its because you remove and insert all16:06

XioNoXasac, what's up ?18:49
fta_asac, I will answer to sispoty.18:55
fta_i never got his email as i'm not in the council (remember we discussed that ?)18:56
fta_never heard of him btw18:57
=== fta_ is now known as fta
mojo_can someone help me in thunderbird?19:07
asacfta: sure. i know that you are not on that list ;) ... thats why i told you. i am not subscribed either. just polled the list archive and then asked someone on the list to forward19:14
ftaok19:15
ftathanks19:15
ftabzr is not very handy for development between 2+ computers (3 in my case) :(19:18
asacfta: why?19:19
asacok off for a few hours19:21
ftai meant, when you have uncommitted code to pass from computer to computer (home, work, laptop, server, ...)19:21
ftawell, obviously not server as it's unfinished work19:22
ftawip19:22
huatsif somebody has some time to advocate a package : python bindings for webkitgtk : http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=pywebkitgtk22:04
asachuats: dholbach did all the review22:28
asachuats: did he say that you need advocacy on top?22:28
huatsasac: hello22:29
huatsasac: he was pretty happy with it22:29
huatsI just told him today that I was moving to use a follow closely the policy with python-support22:30
huatsasac: and anyway any package need 2 ACK to be included22:30
huatsso even with daniel one, there is one missing22:30
asacit needs?22:30
asacin the bug or where?22:30
huats(note that daniel has not give his yet)22:30
huatsin the revu interface22:31
asacwhere is the policy that it requires two acks?22:31
huatsasac: let me find it22:32
ftaasac, yep, revu requests 2 ACKs22:32
asacwhere is that written?22:33
asacok i found it22:35
asacok ... thats two for new apckages then22:35
asacmakes sense to have a higher bar there ... though admins are still on top of that22:36
huatshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages?action=show&redirect=MOTU%2FPackages%2FNew%2FPolicy22:36
huatsoups22:36
huatsyou already have it22:36
asachuats: why dont you use cdbs?22:36
asachuats: i found it on the REVU wiki (first paragraph)22:37
asachttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU?action=show&redirect=REVU22:37
huatsasac: I haven't used cdbs because I am planning to use it on maemo too and cdbs is not available there22:37
asacwow22:37
asacso why are MOTUs only encouraged to get a review on their own NEW packages, while there need to be two acks if it comes from a contributor22:38
asacstrange22:38
asachuats: cdbs is not available on maemo?22:38
asacwhat does that mean? on the "maemo" distribution?22:38
ftaasac, from my (limited) experience with REVU, it's quite easy to get the 1st ack, then no one steps up for a 2nd review22:38
huatswhen I checked (during the UDS) it was not22:39
huatsI was meaning on the maemo platform22:39
asacfta: thats true22:39
asacfta: and most likely the reason is that nobody knows that there are two required ;)22:39
asachuats: what is "the" maemo platform?=22:40
asacwhy isnt cdbs available there? is that a package archive or what?22:40
huatsthe platform that runs on n81022:40
asacanyway. if you says that you need it its ok ;)22:40
ftai think everyone in #u-motu knows, and most likely, contributors *are* in this channel22:40
huatsit is based on debian (arm chip)22:41
asachuats: i have no clue about python, but why is , python-gtk2 in depends needed when you have ${python:Depends}22:41
asac?22:41
asacor the other way around, what does ${python:Depends} expand to?22:42
asacfta: in *this* or in *-motu* channeL?22:42
ftathis = *-motu22:43
ftasorry22:43
asacok22:43
huatsasac: let me understand why I did that (some time ago)22:45
asachuats: what is $(confflags) ?22:45
huatsoh22:45
huatsthat is something that I have removed22:46
huats:(22:46
huatsI think it should not appear now :(22:46
asacok22:48
asacill comment with those two changes (and ask for clarification)22:49
huatssure22:49
huatsasac: don't mind the confflag22:49
huatsit is not in the next upload22:49
huats(I have removed it already)22:49
asacwell. i need to comment something. you can show reponsiveniss22:50
