fta-d00:39
[reed]not sure, really. I saw the bug, but I didn't think anything about it00:40
ftahmmm, "Part 2 of Ogg backend seeking implementation"00:42
fta"More JIT testing on trunk. Crashers found, but many known. "  still crashing here00:44
ftathe new flash is far better but still a pig01:01
fta66% cpu + 14% for Xorg01:02
fta40% under ff3.1, interesting01:17
Hobbseefta: latest version doesn't build, current version doesn't install.05:36

Andre1any ideas?16:57
Andre1anyone watching this at all?16:57

Andre1Sorry if I'm spamming, but I've never used IRC before so would appreciate knowing if anyone is listening17:02
Andre1magical17:04
KnusperI've never used IRC before... yeah... thats why you should read at least some documents about "how to behave on irc"17:09
Knusperlol17:09
fta[reed], libasound is linked everywhere in trunk, this is ugly: (17:37
ftaeven in libsqlite3.so17:38
ftaasac, [reed]: firefox is 2nd: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+upstreamreport#18:02
XioNoXhi!19:28
wikzfta: I have a problem with the current user.I can't launch spicebird when I run as myself but other users on my sys can launch spicebird.Other users are both desktop users and admin privileged users.I get a cannot connect to dbus file error.19:29
ftawikz, hm, never heard of that19:31
wikzfta: I don't want to re-create my user as I have been using this for a long time, since 7.0419:31
wikzLots of customizations and shortcuts19:31
wikzand I have been bothering my team that something is wron with spicebird :(19:31
ftayou could disable dbus but there's probably a better solution19:32
ftadid you google for your error message?19:32
wikzhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/8511819:34
ubottuLaunchpad bug 85118 in dbus "epiphany launch error: Unable to connect to session bus" [Medium,Confirmed]19:34
wikzsomething like this fta19:34
ftaasac, i've experimented a bit with the QT support in 3.1. I've drafted my ideas on the wiki: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/QT  please let me know what you think19:34
ftawikz, did you try to restart dbus?19:42
wikzrestarted the system too19:42
wikztried the tricks19:42
wikzwhy just with one user and not others19:43
ftayou may have files/sockets with the wrong perms19:44
ftahave a look in /var/run/dbus/ or /var/run/hald/19:44
ftatry netstat -a19:45
ftaor start spicebird under strace and look for dbus19:45
wikzfta: you also might need to ship firefox QT with a KDE theme like http://ramonantonio.net/kde-firefox/20:03
wikzfta: Do I need to put the stuff in the /usr/share folder ?like thunderbird 2 or everything in one folder like TB3 ?20:25
ftawikz, debian (and lintian) would want you to do like tb2. here, we don't care much about that and prefer the upstream way.. at least for now.20:27
wikzthanks :)20:27
wikzfta: This brings me to the doubt whether I need to maintain separate binaries for debain and ubuntu ?20:28
wikzare debians really pricky about these ?20:28
ftathey are, as there are driven by their strict policy. In theory, ubuntu too but this particular rule is not enforced, at least, not by us20:30
wikzman :|20:30
ftait's a choice we've made last year to stick with /usr/lib/product-version/ from upstream rather than having to patch and dissect to get /usr/lib/product and /usr/share/product20:31
wikzfta: there are other issues too.I need atleast telepathy 0.7.9 to use the system flag but hardy has 0.7.3 .ibex has 0.7.13.20:34
ftawell, then build in-source for hardy :(20:35
wikzany point in supporting prior to hardy ? Gutsy and all ?20:36
ftai don't think so. the latest dev & stable and the lts are enough20:37
ftathe further back you go, the worse it is to support, mainly because of dependencies20:38
[reed]fta: I'm not sure how to read this page...21:22
[reed]ah, let me read the wiki21:22
fta[reed], click on the link in the yellow box21:22
[reed]yeah21:23
[reed]so, basically, this says you all are doing a horrible job at triaging and pointing stuff upstream :p21:23
[reed]<g>21:23
armin76lol21:23
fta[reed], or http://stompbox.typepad.com/blog/2008/09/introducing-the.html21:24
ftai'm much into bugs, that's a full time job21:24
ftaespecially with crappy^Hbig software like ff21:25
[reed]haha21:25
[reed]need to get more Ubuntu/Canonical QA folks working on stuff ;)21:25
armin76all slackers21:27
[reed]jcastro: very neat report ;)21:28
ftawikz, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2008-September/000113.html21:29
fta[reed], you know you can help us too21:31
fta[reed], especially that your are using the official builds on ubuntu, you could help triaging packaging/ubuntu bugs from upstream bugs in a blink21:32
* fta votes for a 5-a-day just for [reed]21:33
[reed]jaja21:34
[reed]er21:34
[reed]haha21:34
[reed]I already triage bugs in Bugzilla!21:34
[reed]yet another bug tracking system :(21:34
[reed]I'm more than happy to help track down bugs upstream on a request basis, but I honestly don't have the time to triage all the bugs in launchpad21:35
[reed]I'm already super busy ;(21:36
ftathe last column could do21:39
ftathose in pending_bugwatch21:39
ftajust 3321:39
wikzfta: how can I add our bugzilla in the launchpad project settings ?so that users file bug directly there instead of here?Do you have a better suggestion than this ?21:44
ftahm, in the project page, there's something21:46
wikzyes bugzillas for lots projects but obviously noy ours21:47
wikzone says somewhere else21:47
wikzthat's all21:48
ftawikz, i just asked the lp admin, you have to file a question to request it: https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad21:52
wikzfta: thanks :)22:00
[reed]fta: ok, I'll try to take a look later this week22:06
[reed]too many projects due before that ;)22:06
