seb128mvo: ok thanks13:26
mvoseb128: if its urgend, just go ahead, bzr is fine for upload13:26
seb128mvo: no, I just look daily at the sponsoring list and I would like to get the 2 gnome-control-center lines you commited to bzr to get cleaned ;-)13:26
mvoheh :)13:27
mvook13:27
seb128and one is a string change so better for translators to get the right string early13:27
seb128anyway nothing urgent, it's just pending upload for a while now so I was wondering13:27
seb128maybe I can add that as a reason to not like bzr :-p fixes are delayed ;-)13:28

seb128hey tedg14:16
ftaseb128, the new cairo now requires pixman >= 0.12.014:17
tedgGood morning seb12814:17
seb128tedg: I've sponsored some of the updates waiting on your ppa14:17
ftaseb128, btw, thanks for fontconfig yesterday14:17
tedgseb128: Awesome, thanks, I haven't looked yet, but did the UIe get processed for FUSA?14:17
seb128fta: thank you for working on the change ;-)14:17
seb128fta: since when is this new pixman version available?14:18
seb128tedg: that was required? GNOME has a standing exception, I just uploaded ;-)14:18
ftaseb128, 2 days ago14:18
ftaseb128, want me to do it ?14:18
tedgseb128: :)  Thank you.14:19
seb128fta: no, I'm pinging the debian guys, they usually prefer to be notified so they can do the update and ubuntu can stay in sync14:19
ftaok14:19
ftaseb128, same for cairo ?14:19
seb128fta: btw is there still any change in cairo we need or can we sync on debian?14:19
tedgseb128: Did you do xscreensaver also?14:23
seb128tedg: no14:23
ftaseb128, still our freetype/fontconfig debps/build-deps versions that are higher14:24
seb128fta: that's not required, hardy or intrepid have the required versions14:24
ftaseb128, everything else is minor, i guess sync is ok. i'll stop my 1.7.6 update then.14:27
ftabtw, debian doesn't have it yet so there's nothing to sync at the moment14:28
seb128fta: you can still work on the cairo update if you want, not sure how reactive is the cairo debian maintainer at the moment14:29
ftaconsidering i need the new pixman, either i do both or i wait for debian14:31
seb128wait for debian14:34
ftaok14:34

seb128mvo: did you do your quota of sponsoring for this week yet? ;-)15:15
mvoseb128: no, why15:16
* seb128 is trying to dispatch some sponsoring work there ;-)15:16
mvoI'm currently reviewing/sponsoring packagekit15:16
seb128mvo: kwwii has some artwork packages to get sponsored, he pinged me about those yesterday because pitti which usually look at those is away for the week15:16
mvobut I have cycles I think15:16
mvois there a bugrpeort for them?15:16
seb128but I did spent too much time on sponsoring today and it would be nice if somebody else could look at those15:17
seb128mvo: no, it's on his ppa on launchpad15:17
seb128mvo: maybe ping him on irc to confirm the list?15:17
seb128asac: could you look at the devhelp sponsor request? ;-)15:18
mvohm, looks like he is not now currently15:18
seb128mvo: he's on #canonical, not sure why he's not hanging there though15:18
mvoseb128: ok, I /msged him15:21
seb128mvo: thank you15:21
* seb128 is trying to get some GNOME work before the weekend, new version again on monday15:21
tedgseb128: I'm kinda confused.  I changed the defaults of the FUSA schema file, but still seems like they're being used on a new account I created.  Is there some other thing that needs to be done?16:42
mvotedg: depending how/were you changed it you need to run update-gconf-defaults I think (but dh_gconf should take care of it)16:44
seb128tedg: how did you change those?16:45
seb128tedg: the usual way is to add a .gconf-defaults16:45
tedgmvo: Do I need a dh_gconf in the rules file?  There isn't one there now.  But gnome.mk is included.16:45
seb128if gnome.mk is being used no need no16:45
tedgseb128: I put it in a patch.16:45
mvook, thanks. gnome.mk should be enough16:45
seb128did you patch the schemas.in?16:46
tedgseb128: Yes.16:46
seb128usually you don't want to patch the schemas16:46
seb128but add a debian/binary.gconf-schemas which set those16:46
tedgI'm not sure what you're saying in the second line there.  Is this a file or a line in my rules?16:47
seb128tedg: that's a file16:48
tedgAnd that has the whole schema, or just the diff?16:48
seb128tedg: locate .gconf-defaults16:48
mvotedg: check /usr/share/gconf/defaults/10_compiz-gnome for a example16:48
seb128tedg: that's a debian think, if dh_gconf is used which is the case there you have nothing to do, just add a .gconf-defaults in the debian directory16:49
tedgIs there a difference between "gconf-defaults" and "gconf-schemas" ?16:50
seb128yes16:50
tedgWhich should I use?16:50
davmor2guys an ideas why the screen saver isn't kicking in?  It starts to fade then almost immediately wakes again16:50
seb128the schemas are upstream gconf files to set defaults16:50
seb128the .gconf-defaults one are debian specific files to override upstream defaults without having to patch the schemas16:50
tedgOkay, so if I'm adding a GConf item, I should patch the schemas?  And if I'm changing a value I should use the defaults in the packaging.  Is that correct?16:51
seb128no16:51
seb128you can still use a .gconf-defaults in the new key case but it'll not have a description, etc16:52
seb128but right if you add upstream keys you can edit the schemas yes16:52
seb128just make sure to edit the right .in or .in.in so they are in the schemas after build16:53
seb128I've to run for a bit, bbl16:53
tedgOkay, I will those seem to be getting added more reliably.  Value changes I think are getting caught up in the layers of settings.16:53
