| snadge | ubuntu 8.04.1 .. clean install.. can anyone confirm that in System -> Admin -> Users and Groups.. theres no option to unlock by default | 04:04 |
| snadge | i've tried adding the user to the polkituser group, and this doesnt work either .. (note this is default created user also) | 04:04 |
| snadge | it doesnt work on my system, nor a fresh system i've just installed :( | 04:04 |
| snadge | anyone? | 04:30 |
| crimsun | I don't have an 8.04.1 install, only 8.04.1+updates | 04:40 |
| snadge | ahh true.. i have all the updates instaled | 04:43 |
| snadge | so maybe the problem is with that :/ | 04:43 |
| snadge | simple file sharing does not work either :( | 04:46 |
| snadge | it installed the samba package.. but the share doesnt appear, theres nothing in my smb.conf or anywhere in /etc relating to the share name i just created | 04:47 |
| snadge | known problem, have to reboot to enable sambausers group permission :/ | 05:09 |
| snadge | also same goes for the polkituser group.. (can now unlock users and groups) | 05:10 |
| snadge | this is a really suckful problem actually that has been in linux since the dawning of time | 05:10 |
| snadge | the fact that group changes dont propagate instantly.. that totally totally totally sucks.. and has stumped so many people that its not funny.. that really needs to be fixed | 05:10 |
| mrooney | yes, that would be nice. | 05:11 |
| snadge | perhaps that is an area where ubuntu can help.. since its a useability issue, and it would appear nobody has taken the initiative on this very stupid.. and very longstanding problem | 05:12 |
| pwnguin | im a bit confused, are you proposing a radical change in fundamental unix permission systems? | 05:19 |
| pwnguin | or simply an info dialog suggesting the user needs to log out to take effect? | 05:20 |
| crimsun | more along the lines of the latter, except without a dialog, and affecting the change immediately | 05:21 |
| snadge | i dont fully understand what needs to be changed and how | 05:41 |
| snadge | apart from, its not a simple problem.. otherwise someone would have fixed it already | 05:41 |
| snadge | and yes, it would be a fundamental change to how the unix permission system works | 05:42 |
| snadge | since at the moment.. it requires you to log out and then log back in again.. and everybody just accepts this as perfectly normal behaviour (which it is) | 05:42 |
| snadge | it would have to be similar to how /etc/resolv.conf works.. when you change this file, you dont have to restart anything .. this change is made live | 05:44 |
| snadge | it would need to detect when this file has changed, then update the logged in users group permissions to reflect this change | 05:46 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 243271 in openoffice.org "Open Office Spreadsheet Sheet Copy error" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 12:38 |
| bs66 | i search info in the bugs/status web page, but could not figure it out. | 12:39 |
| james_w | hmm, I'm not sure about that bug, I'm not familiar enough with the package | 12:40 |
| james_w | I think Invalid or Won't Fix, if you are correct. | 12:40 |
| persia | I suspect wontfix for that bug, But I think it needs enough information to clearly demonstrate the complaint and the reference to the spec before setting wontfix. | 12:41 |
| james_w | perhaps someone else here is more familiar with the package and can back you up | 12:41 |
| bs66 | The bug reported is not a bug. It reflects the intended behavior as far as I understand. | 12:41 |
| persia | bs66: Right. It just needs documentation and references so that the reporter understands when setting wontfix (in my opinion) | 12:42 |
| bs66 | ok. I guess many reported bugs are not really bugs, but the intended behavior? I am surprised that the bugs/status page doesn't cover this case. | 12:45 |
| persia | bs66: Actually, it's fairly rare. Happens sometimes, but not so often. | 12:47 |

| james_w | it comes down to the release team though | 13:19 |
| askand | I see, with all respect of those people, I don't always understand their prioritizing | 13:25 |
| persia | askand: It's often, in large part, the results of the release team meeting, and which bugs people raise as release showstoppers. | 13:48 |
| askand | persia: can anyone attend to the release team meeting and suggest bugs as release showstoppers? | 13:49 |
| seb128 | you can | 13:50 |
| seb128 | but you can as well discuss those bugs there and have somebody in the bugsquad team comment on the issue and nominate it for you | 13:50 |
| askand | seb128: ok thanks | 13:51 |
| persia | askand: Attendance is open to all. You need to have a team raise the bug. As seb128 says, bugsquad usually coordinates through the QA team to raise bugs. | 13:53 |

| niadh | hey, am here for the hug day | 14:22 |
| niadh | How do I get started? | 14:22 |
| persia | askand: It's specific to only certain hardware, and only if the setting is configured in a certain way. If one has the hardware, one can change the setting, and not be affected. Easy to work around, but incredibly hard to fix. This is the sort of thing that is rarely targetted. | 14:22 |
| askand | persia: Please excuse my noobiness but I see that Debian has marked the bug as solved, and since Ubuntu is kind of a Debianchild, couldn't ubuntu use the same fix? | 14:24 |
| persia | askand: Good point, and there's been some work to merge acpi-support for the intrepid release as well. | 14:27 |

| Hew | niadh: I responded to your BugSquad mail and I posted the links in the reply. | 14:43 |
| niadh | Hew: Yeah I recognise the 'Hew' from the sig ;) | 14:43 |
| Hew | niadh: Find a bug that you feel you would like to triage, and give it a go! Ask here if you get stuck :-) | 14:44 |
| niadh | To triage I do what? Confirm it? | 14:44 |
| Hew | niadh: Depends on the bug. If it's New and you can reproduce the issue, you can set it to Confirmed. Make sure you add a comment that adds additional useful info if you can. | 14:45 |
| niadh | So it's adding as much information, asking user to add more information if we ourselves can't produce it, and marking it confirmed if we can etc? | 14:46 |
| Hew | niadh: Often bug reporters give broad descriptions of the problem, so if you can give a more detailed explanation of the issue then that will help developers. | 14:46 |
| niadh | Cool | 14:46 |
| Hew | niadh: Pretty much :-) | 14:46 |
| niadh | Looking for something I feel I may be able to work on then | 14:46 |
| Hew | niadh: Set it to Incomplete if you ask them for more info / testing. | 14:46 |
| niadh | I need a bit of help about what I'm looking at with a bug, I believe I can reproduce it looking at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/264345, I can mark it as confirmed since as I said, I can reproduce it, after that... What? | 14:52 |

| bddebian | Hello nhandler | 14:56 |
| Hew | niadh: Hmm, it's too confusing for me, I'm glad you understand it :P. Confirm it since you can reproduce it. Leave a comment saying what version of openoffice you tested with. Also with that one, the bug title and description are very confusing.. Perhaps it could be updated and an English description could be added? | 14:59 |
| niadh | Hew: I don't understand fully, but I know kinda WHY it might be happening, besides I didn't need to understand it or really understand much french to test and try to confirm it ;) | 15:00 |
| Hew | niadh: Haha. Well, that bug has had a lot of discussion on it already, so it should have already been marked confirmed. Just setting the status to Confirmed is enough for now. The rest is just for bonus points :-) | 15:02 |
| niadh | Hew: If I can find a specific ooo-calc package, I should attach it to that, right? | 15:04 |
| Hew | niadh: Most bugs affect only one package in Ubuntu. Leaving it as affecting openoffice.org is fine. | 15:06 |

| nhandler | Yes niadh | 15:18 |
| nhandler | Or if there is already a bug report for this new bug, confirm that report | 15:19 |
| niadh | And does launchpad support attaching a video file, I think the only way to capture this is to use istanbul to record it happening. | 15:19 |
| nhandler | niadh: I am not sure if you are able to attach a video file. If not, just put it in a .tar.gz | 15:20 |
| niadh | Ah good point :) | 15:20 |
| maco | i think you can | 15:21 |
| maco | there's a tag for it | 15:21 |
| maco | tag it "screencast" | 15:21 |
| niadh | bah, istanbul never actually STOPS recording... | 15:22 |
| nhandler | maco: Thanks, I forgot about the 'screencast' tag | 15:22 |
| maco | nhandler: guess what happens when you read the tags page like 3 times in one week? | 15:23 |
| niadh | Is there a way to manually pass istanbul start and stop commands? | 15:23 |
| nhandler | maco: That must be my issue. I only read it about once a week ;) | 15:23 |
| maco | ive no idea how to make istanbul not-crash | 15:23 |
| maco | admittedly, haven't tried since feisty | 15:24 |
| niadh | I got it working like once, and that was it. | 15:24 |
| niadh | any other good screen capture programs I could use? | 15:24 |
| maco | well gtk-recordmydesktop supposedly works for people that aren't me | 15:24 |
| maco | for me, it results in corrupted theora | 15:24 |
| Hew | niadh: There are a few bugs in Istanbul unfortunately, but with the right settings I got it to work. | 15:25 |
| niadh | Hew: How so? | 15:25 |
| maco | Hew: "few bugs" = crash on save? | 15:25 |
| Hew | maco: Yes, I've triaged it before. | 15:26 |
| niadh | Maco: I've be encouraged to see the save dialog, it starts but never stops on my machine, I have to issue a kill command | 15:26 |
| Hew | niadh: My settings atm are 3 ticks in the 3 checkboxes in the right click menu. Try that. | 15:26 |
| niadh | which settings? | 15:26 |
| niadh | Oh wait, it's not clear they are checkboxes, there are only 3 | 15:27 |

| Hew | niadh: Good to hear. You can attach the screencast to the report just like a normal attachment. No need to do any fancy conversions. | 15:29 |
| niadh | Hew: well lets hope it ACTUALLY saves... | 15:29 |
| maco | Hew: that's an odd thing to name that, seeing as it's got nothing to do with 3D. i'm not using compiz | 15:29 |
| maco | niadh: mine saved instead of crashing when i hit the save button | 15:30 |
| niadh | I imagine the bug is in fact a compiz bug, but it's only happened with ooffice | 15:30 |
| Hew | maco: Yes, it's a workaround. It's still a bug. | 15:30 |
| maco | Hew: oh ok | 15:30 |

| Hew | niadh: Ah, is it just the save icon in the notification area, without the save popup? | 15:34 |
| niadh | Hew: Yup | 15:34 |
| Hew | niadh: Try unchecking "Record Sound" | 15:35 |
| maco | ... | 15:35 |
| Hew | niadh: Do a test run so you don't waste your time recording | 15:36 |
| niadh | Hew: Test run? | 15:36 |
| Hew | Istanbul is too buggy.. | 15:36 |
| maco | this app is a big pile of hacks | 15:36 |
| Hew | niadh: Don't spend a lot of time recording something if there's a chance it won't save, that's all. | 15:36 |
| Hew | maco: Yes, I don't use it often. I'll chase up the relevant bugs. | 15:36 |
| niadh | Hew: Well in the process of trying to record it I can confirm the bug happens quite a bit. | 15:37 |
| maco | haha | 15:37 |
| Hew | niadh: Is that a good or a bad thing? :P | 15:37 |
| niadh | Hew: Both, bad it exists, but good I can successfully recreate it. | 15:38 |
| niadh | If you have compiz running you might be able to confirm it with me. | 15:38 |
| Hew | niadh: Yes, I'm running compiz atm. | 15:39 |
| maco | question: if a bug is Fix Released on the remote bug watch, it probably shouldnt be new/incomplete for Ubuntu's package, but should it be Confirmed or Triaged? | 15:42 |
| Hew | maco: Probably. Which bug #? | 15:43 |
| niadh | Hew: Ok, use writer to create a text file in odt, save it, then export it as a pdf, once that's done, export it to a pdf of the same name, when it asks you if you wish to overwrite it, choose no, and watch metacity, I have tried it with a couple of themes now and it briefly changes colour. | 15:43 |
| niadh | Hew: It in fact seems to happen with little dialogs pop up and focus changes inside of writer | 15:44 |
| niadh | I captured a screen shot of it, not as good as a screencast but it could do | 15:45 |
| maco | Hew: bug 120281 | 15:46 |

| Hew | niadh: I can't reproduce that with metacity or compiz. Is this a new bug, or one you're triaging? | 15:46 |
| niadh | Hew: A bug I noticed discovered myself | 15:47 |
| Hew | niadh: Since you have a screenshot and good description to reproduce though, look to see if a bug already exists for it and attach your info. If one doesn't, create a new bug report. | 15:47 |
| niadh | it'll be in the list on the wiki if it's gonna be there, right? | 15:48 |
| Hew | niadh: No, that's just for the Hug Day. What package do you think the bug is in? Look at the bugs under that package to do a quick look for dupes. | 15:50 |
| Hew | niadh: Do you think it's an OpenOffice issue, or a metacity or compiz one? | 15:50 |
| niadh | Hew: Dunno, I am tempted to say probably compiz, but I really don't know, since it only occurs with openoffice | 15:50 |
| Hew | niadh: If it happens with compiz but not with metacity, then it should be filed under compiz. Compiz has a huge number of bugs (was trying to clean some the other day), so maybe do a search on them for openoffice and see if your issue is any of those. | 15:52 |
| niadh | Well I'm using metacity with compiz, cos isn't emerald the compiz window manager or is my knowledge quite outdated now? | 15:52 |
| maco | niadh: compiz is the window manager | 15:54 |
| Hew | maco: That bug has been fixed upstream in Thunderbird 3 alpha. This brings up the whole "Fix Committed" issue that has been going on again recently. I would set the Ubuntu package status to Triaged in this case, and leave a comment mentioning it's fixed in Thunderbird 3. | 15:54 |
| maco | niadh: gtk-window-decorator and emerald where the window decorators | 15:54 |
| maco | s/where/were/ | 15:54 |
| maco | Hew: ok | 15:54 |
| maco | niadh: emerald still exists, but if you ask the devs about a bug in it, they'll just tell you to stop using emerald | 15:55 |
| niadh | Well I am using metacity atm, so it's def NOT a emerald issue. | 15:56 |
| maco | gtk-window-decorator | 15:57 |
| maco | you can't possibly use compiz and metacity at the same time | 15:57 |
| maco | gtk-window-decorator is just what allows compiz to borrow metacity's themes | 15:57 |
| maco | using metacity would mean no desktop effects | 15:58 |
| niadh | ah okies | 15:59 |
| niadh | that makes more sense actually | 15:59 |
| maco | i did once manage to get compiz and xmonad going at the same time though O_o | 15:59 |
| niadh | Well, I'm not sure of the package, what do you think it's more likely to be, openoffice or gtk-window-decorator? | 16:00 |
| maco | niadh: what's the bug? | 16:01 |
| niadh | maco: The window title bar goes kinda odd (colours briefly change etc) which focus is changing inside of ooffice applications | 16:02 |
| maco | ok yeah, that sounds about right then | 16:03 |
| niadh | gtk-window-decorator then? | 16:04 |
| maco | its either that or compiz | 16:04 |
| Hew | niadh: There are a lot of titlebar colours bugs around. What colours exactly does it change to? | 16:05 |
| niadh | Hew: Seems to depend on the metacity theme that's being emulated. | 16:06 |
| maco | thats not a new bug... | 16:06 |
| maco | i think i saw that on launchpad like a year ago | 16:06 |
| niadh | Maco: Ok, will not bother reporting it then. | 16:07 |
| maco | i think | 16:07 |
| maco | check anyway | 16:07 |
| maco | i mightve just seen it on the forums | 16:07 |
| Hew | niadh: nvidia-glx has a bug with purpley colours, and there is the titlebar stripes one for Hardy (that was hacked/fixed), and the titlebar blanking one in Intrepid. | 16:07 |
| niadh | Also, I've confirmed a few bugs marked others as incomplete, but they're not showing up on the wiki as confirmed etc. | 16:07 |
| Hew | niadh: You need to change it yourself, it's not automatic | 16:07 |

| maco | log into the wiki and hit the Edit button | 16:08 |
| Hew | niadh: Follow the instructions at the top of the Hug Day page, add lightgreen and your name. | 16:08 |

| niadh | Is there anyone who can test ooffice with samba btw? I looked at a bug that has samba specific tests to be done? | 16:29 |
| niadh | Hew: I think I did that, it's that same bug posted previously, looks green to me. | 16:29 |
| Hew | niadh: Yep, that's it :-) | 16:30 |
| niadh | Hew: Fairly obvious I'm new to it, sorry for lots of the questions, just isn't entirely clear what needs to be done, a lot is assume or implied. | 16:31 |
| Hew | niadh: That's the nature of learning, and that's why we're here :-) | 16:32 |
| niadh | Hew: Yeah I know, I just been in some IRC chat rooms that was a little discouraging when you have question after question, esspecially when you are setting out with a view to help and you get told to read the documentation, and if you don't fully understand the documentation you feel less confident about saying so. | 16:33 |
| maco | niadh: i was asking questions in ##c today and getting that attitude. i don't like that place. | 16:35 |
| niadh | ##c? | 16:35 |
| maco | niadh: C programming | 16:35 |
| niadh | or #c#? | 16:35 |
| Hew | niadh: Hmm yes. The Ubuntu wiki / documentation is pretty good overall which is why it is referred to a lot, but if you still don't understand, feel free to ask the question again. | 16:35 |
| maco | ##c | 16:35 |

| pedro_ | afflux: raising the priority wouldn't make a difference there IMO | 17:05 |
| pedro_ | afflux: better to send that upstream | 17:05 |
| thekorn | afflux, IMO wishlist is ok for the ubuntu task, send it upstream so they can think about higher importance | 17:06 |
| afflux | okay | 17:06 |
| thekorn | bah too slow | 17:06 |

| calc | i think though i am not certain that the GIO patches might help with that bug | 17:19 |
| calc | but it won't be fixed for intrepid | 17:19 |
| calc | the GIO patches are in 3.0 but they are still somewhat buggy aiui | 17:19 |
| sebner | calc: ah good to see you. Maybe you can't stand this question anymore but will we see Oo3 in intrepid? ^^ | 17:19 |
| calc | sebner: its available in openoffice-pkgs ppa but it won't be the main openoffice.org in intrepid | 17:21 |
| sebner | calc: kk, thx :) | 17:21 |
| calc | aiui it probably is going to slip again from the oct 7 release date, so would potentially be releasing when we release the Intrepid RC | 17:21 |
| calc | and OOo is usually fairly buggy right after release until go-oo team has a chance to fix a lot of the new bugs | 17:22 |

| maco | calc: is it possible to have openoffice.org and openoffice.org-3 packages like what was done with firefox and firefox-3 in gutsy? | 17:23 |

| Hew | niadh: If you've taken care of it, yes | 17:26 |
| niadh | Hew: Well I'm waiting for the initial reporter to supply more information. | 17:28 |
| niadh | Hew: Marked it as incomplete, so I turn it green? | 17:28 |
| Hew | niadh: Yes, that's fine. | 17:28 |
| calc | maco: firefox-3 was done that way due to needing to update it soon after release for upstream support issues | 17:36 |
| calc | maco: especially due to it being a LTS release | 17:36 |
| maco | oh | 17:36 |
| maco | wait what? | 17:36 |

| maco | and in universe, not main | 17:38 |
| calc | i may be able to do it for OOo i will have to see how much has to be changed to make it work | 17:39 |

| niadh | maco: Yeah, it's not finding the openoffice.org-dbgsym=1:2.4.1-1ubuntu2 package | 17:52 |
| maco | niadh: do you have teh ddebs repo? | 17:52 |
| niadh | maco: Yeah, installed them, ran aptitude update, so they should be available to me. | 17:53 |

| maco | apt-cache search openoffice.org | grep dbg | 17:55 |

| niadh | maco: I've got the backtracing set up, I'm just not sure how to go about capturing the bug, because it occurs when a file is opened directly from an internet link as opposed to saving then opening. | 18:05 |
| maco | niadh: you can use the "attach to a running process" method | 18:05 |
| maco | open the file, start gdb, then reproduce the bug | 18:06 |
| niadh | maco: oooo, so set up the bug as normal, but before going through with triggering the bug, attach gdb to the process then execute the bug? | 18:06 |
| maco | yes | 18:06 |
| calc | bdmurray: looking | 18:07 |
| niadh | maco: attached it to the process, but now I can't do anything with openoffice, I can't even see the window, it's there, but it almost looks to have 0% opacity | 18:11 |
| maco | try typing "continue" in gdb? | 18:12 |
| niadh | maco: Yeah, would help if I continued reading, wouldn't it? | 18:12 |
| maco | i'm not so good with using gdb, but i know once gdb loads up debugging symbols stuff sometimes gets all locked until you tell it to keep executing | 18:12 |
| niadh | maco: seems to have done the trick ;) | 18:13 |
| calc | bdmurray: not sure what would be causing the crash, i haven't updated to intrepid yet due to needing a stable system | 18:13 |
| hggdh | maco, niadh when gdb loads it will interrupt the debugged process. This gives you time to set up breakpoints, or whatever else you need, before stepping or continuing | 18:13 |
| niadh | cool | 18:14 |
| hggdh | niadh, you mighe later on want to look at graphical interfaces, like ddd. | 18:14 |
| hggdh | (to debugging, of course) | 18:14 |
| niadh | hggdh: Maybe, I'm not scared of the command line though. | 18:15 |
| calc | oh btw i think i have a fix for powerpc/sparc | 18:16 |
| maco | hggdh: ooo ok | 18:16 |
| maco | hggdh: i didnt know there were graphical debuggers | 18:16 |
| calc | i can't upload it until after the beta release later this week though | 18:16 |
| niadh | If someone provides files in which to test something, are they good enough to use to set the bug as confirmed? | 18:20 |
| hggdh | maco, yes, there are some. I am not sure I fully like most of them, but it is much easier to scroll and have data watches | 18:20 |
| calc | niadh: if the files actually show the bug yes, actually if they show the bug well enough then triaged is fine too | 18:21 |
| calc | niadh: at least if this is wrt OOo | 18:21 |
| niadh | calc: I am not able to triage, don't have the rank(?) to set that status. | 18:21 |
| calc | hmm actually keep it at confirmed since i still would need to see if it is a ubuntu/ooo-build issue or an upstream issue | 18:21 |
| calc | niadh: ok confirmed is good then :) | 18:22 |
| niadh | calc: I'm surprised a lot of these bugs ain't green already cos they're set to incomplete a lot of them, or many of them are dead easy to confirm. | 18:24 |

| niadh | Well yeah, but it wasn't intentional :P | 22:02 |
| niadh | But then, no-one does it intentionally, do they? | 22:02 |
| calc | persia: but more karma i think ;-) | 22:03 |
| niadh | What is this karma thing? It kinda popped up on launchpad and I have NO idea what it's purpose serves. | 22:03 |
| persia | calc: Yeah, well, volume of karma isn't as important as the sign of the karma. Having *lots* of karma can also be a bad thing. | 22:03 |
| persia | niadh: It loosely shows how much stuff you've done in the past while, so you can judge if someone is active or not. | 22:04 |
| niadh | sign of the karma? | 22:04 |
| niadh | Ah | 22:04 |
| persia | "good" karma, "bad" karma. launchpad doesn't differentiate some things, but does differentiate other things. | 22:04 |
| calc | karma along with some bug scripts for firefox also let you see how often a reporter files bugs etc | 22:05 |
| niadh | yeah I ain't got the firefox scripts installed, I ain't even an 'ubuntero' or whatever it's called, I didn't have any luck getting my gpg key created or working | 22:06 |
| nhandler | calc: It isn't just filing bugs. You get karma for almost any activity you perform on Launchpad | 22:06 |
| nhandler | niadh: Have you tried using Seahorse? | 22:06 |
| calc | nhandler: ah ok | 22:06 |
| niadh | nope, not yet, looking at it now | 22:06 |
| Hamra | what's seahorse? | 22:06 |
| nhandler | Hamra: It is an application (with a GUI) that you can use to create and manage GPG keys | 22:07 |
| Hamra | ah, seems like a handy app | 22:07 |
| nhandler | Hamra: That is what I initially used to create my key. | 22:08 |
| Hamra | i sill use the terminal for my keys :P and sometimes use enigmail in thunderbird for simple operations | 22:09 |
| rowinggolfer | guys - I've been inspired by the ubuntu-uk podcast to try and help triage bugs | 22:13 |
| rowinggolfer | and as this is open office hug day.. | 22:13 |
| rowinggolfer | I've chosen this | 22:14 |
| rowinggolfer | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/264669 | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 264669 in openoffice.org "mail merge" [Undecided,New] | 22:14 |
| rowinggolfer | which I think is simply invalid. | 22:14 |
| rowinggolfer | the guy says that "it" will not import any address book in the wizard... but I cannot duplicate this | 22:15 |
| Hamra | it's incomplete | 22:15 |
| rowinggolfer | so do I simply add I cannot duplicate this behaviour? | 22:15 |
| Hamra | he should give more details | 22:15 |
| rowinggolfer | or ask what version etc?? | 22:15 |
| Hamra | yes, ask him to give more details about version, distro version, where was he importing etc... | 22:16 |
| bdmurray | rowinggolfer: yes, it would be helpful to know which release and package version of openoffice.org they are using | 22:16 |
| rowinggolfer | ok thanks... I'll do my worst | 22:16 |
| rowinggolfer | Hamra, I've replied... would you be so kind as to check if my reply is in order? | 22:19 |
| rowinggolfer | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/264669 | 22:19 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 264669 in openoffice.org "mail merge" [Undecided,New] | 22:19 |
| Hamra | i don't think asking for the addressbook was necessary, since it contains private info | 22:20 |
| Hamra | here, check this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses | 22:20 |
| rowinggolfer | ok, thanks. | 22:21 |
| bdmurray | rowinggolfer: it'd also help if you noted how you tested the bug and with version of Ubuntu and openoffice.org | 22:21 |
| Hamra | iyou're welcome | 22:22 |
| rowinggolfer | bdmurray. will do so in future. | 22:22 |
| bdmurray | rowinggolfer: also the bug's status should be incomplete until the information is provided... | 22:26 |
| * popey pats rowinggolfer on the back | 22:27 | |
| rowinggolfer | thanks popey | 22:29 |
| bdmurray | rowinggolfer: to change the bug's status you can click on the existing status and then choose Incomplete in the new part that appears | 22:33 |
| rowinggolfer | bdmurray - ooops I'd better go back and do that... I'm deep into bug 2 now | 22:34 |
| ubottu | Error: Launchpad bug 2 could not be found | 22:34 |
| rowinggolfer | ubottu - you stupid bt | 22:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about you stupid bt | 22:34 |
| rowinggolfer | ubottu: that's enough lip | 22:35 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:35 |
| Hamra | rowinggolfer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/KnowledgeBase , almost everything you might need to know | 22:35 |
| rowinggolfer | Hamra: cheers - bookmarked | 22:35 |
| rowinggolfer | ok I'm done. 2 bugs today... maybe 3 tomorrow. | 23:01 |
| rowinggolfer | thanks for your help chaps. | 23:01 |
| bdmurray | rowinggolfer: thanks for helping out! | 23:01 |
