asac[reed]: unfortunately, there is not simple/single answer to that question00:03
[reed]asac: so, the answers are? :P00:04
asac[reed]: those with bug numbers are from bugzilla ... those that dont have bzXXX are patches that are not wanted upstream. those with bzXXX were thought to be upstream candidates.00:07
[reed]and yet glandium continues to submit patches upstream that get accepted ;)00:08
ftaand i keep dropping patches because glandium was successful00:09
ftaI have 25 patches in xul 1.9 and 18 in 1.9.100:11
ftabut 10 are bzXXX00:11
[reed]so, upstream them!00:12
ftathey are not mine00:12
ftawell, maybe 1 or 2 are mine00:13
asacfta: just updated 1.9.1 ... my branch was quite old and it removed just two patches, while it added 2 new :)00:13
asacwouldnt describe that as "i keep dropping patches" :)00:13
ftahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/56465/00:15
asacbzXXX-dont-reset-user-prefs-on-upgrade.patch00:15
ftathat's at least 600:15
asacthat one should go up00:15
ftacrimsun, i dropped alsa-lib from my ppa00:16
asacdebian/patches/bzXXX_sysplugin_support.patch is a debian patch00:16
ftait has landed now00:17
asacdebian/patches/bzXXX_autoconfig_in_gre.patch should have been upstreamed, but thats quite simple00:17
asacfta: right. but thats two patches ;)00:17
asacthe rest comes from bugzilla :)00:17
asacbzXXX_gre_extension_plugin_support.patch ... this is not wanted in upstream tree, but we could try again00:18
asac(given that we know now a good use-case we can use to convince them)00:19
asacbzXXX_urlclassifier_prefs_in_toolkit.patch could be upstreamed as well00:19
asacthe rest most likely not00:19
asacoh right .. bzXXX_attXXX_fix_remember_password_for_embedders_without_branding.patch00:20
asacthat one is good i think00:20
asacanyway. i plan to do an upstream round when i get out of all this mutt at some point00:20
asacwhich most likely will be after or close to the end of this cycle00:21
asac^^ [reed]00:21
[reed]so, November?00:21
asac[reed]: i try to get my things done until at least 1 week before release00:21
asachopefully i can work the last week on something else then00:22
[reed]ok, cool00:22
[reed]thanks00:22
[reed]:)00:22
asacfta: what has landed for the autoconfig_gre thing now?00:24
ftaasac, the same thing, from mike00:27
asacfta: good. then its not "useless", but applied upstream :)00:27
ftahttp://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6e8e3acd917500:27
ftai should rephare as no longer needed00:27
ftarephrase00:28
asacfta: the patch is identical :)00:28
asacfta: its just "applied upstream" :)00:28
asacbut doesnt really matter00:29
ftamost package simply drop those files without saying anything00:29
fta+S00:29
asacright. just thought that we used that phrase at some point. but its really just unimportant00:31
ftawe have everything in branches so it doesn't matter for us, it's always possible to check later what, why and when00:32
asachmm00:33
asacright00:33
asacyou think this zlib thing is something for upstream?00:33
asacmost likely00:33
asaci wonder what debian does about that00:33
asacor if they just strip those exports afterwards00:34
asacbut i remember there were other issues with it than "just" stripping the exported files later00:34
asachmm00:34
asac  * do not export zlib headers with bogus symbols during make install if00:35
asac    system zlib is used. This breaks embedders and happens if MOZ_INSTALLER00:35
asac    is enabled.00:35
asac    - add debian/patches/bzXXX_no_zlib_export_if_native.patch00:35
asac    - update debian/patches/series00:35
asacthats the initial comment00:35
ftaas i said, bzr is our memory :)00:35
asacmost likely it doesnt apply anymore?00:35
asacsure00:35
asacbut thats even from changelog :)00:35
asacfta: is there still MOZ_INSTALLER?00:35
asacin 1.9.1?00:36
ftayes00:38
asacfta: ok. then thats probably upstream-worthy too00:38
asacfta: have you tried to build epiphany against 1.9.1?00:38
ftabut i use --disable-installer00:39
ftai didn't, epiphany is supposed to go to webkit00:39
asacfta: right. but i think MOZ_INSTALLER was hackily set somewhere during built to make the hacky "make install" become true00:40
asace.g. using the installers packager.mk :)00:40
asacfta: right, but epiphany would give a good insight how bad the changes/state for the embedding layer is00:41
ftai focused my on xulapps recently00:43
fta-my+more00:43
asacthats ok00:43
asaci am trying that now i think :)00:43
asaci wouldnt have done that if you said like: "all fine" :)00:43
ftai think i have a few patches to upstream too, for prism and fennec.00:44
ftai give up on flock/songbird/sm2/tb3, at least for now.00:44
asacfta: tb3 will be more interesting towards the middle of next cycle i hope00:45
asacflock and songbird sound hard to do00:45
ftatb3b1 regressed to a3 last week, i can't do anything now00:45
asacregressed to a3? what does that mean? version dump?00:46
ftayes00:46
asacso a2 -> b1 -> a3?00:46
ftanot enough visible features00:46
ftayes00:46
asacok00:46
asacthen you just were too quick :)00:46
asacuse b1+a3 :)00:46
asacthen b1+real00:47
asacb200:47
asac...00:47
ftai think i'll wait for b100:48
ftai hope they will not do 8 alphas00:48
asac:)00:48
asacmost likely not00:48
asacotherwise releas would be in mar 2012 i guess00:48
ftalol00:48
asacfta: how broken is ffox 3.0 with xul 1.9.1?00:49
asac:-P00:49
ftanot tested00:49
ftai tested the other way around, fennec m8+ with 1.9, it doesn't build, but that's expected00:50
asacyeah00:51
asaci doubt that the outcome will be pleasent00:51
asacbut i will try ;)00:52
ftai wanted to move ff to xulapp00:52
ftabut faced the huge tarball thing00:52
asachuge tarball?00:52
ftagetting subtrees out of hg00:53
asacah00:53
ftainstead of the whole thing00:53
asacfta: cant hg "just" get subtrees?00:53
asace.g. clone subtrees instead of the main tree?00:53
asacor is that really just svn and cvs ;)00:53
ftasame as bzr i guess00:54
asacfta: that works ;)00:54
asacfta: hehe00:54
asacfta: hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/incubator/embedding/00:54
asachg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/incubator/embedding/gtk00:55
asacboth work ;)00:55
asachmm but size is indeed the same :)00:55
asachaha00:55
asacyeah dumb thing00:55
asacat least 1.9.1 is still building happily00:57
asac;)00:57
asacgood work00:57
asacfta: have you heard anything about PPAs being broken for hardy or something?00:58
ftano00:59
asacfta: my NM builds cant install "intltool" anymore :(00:59

asacwouldnt say that was unexpected ;)02:20
asacephy works == without any respin :-D02:21
asachttp://paste.ubuntu.com/56506/02:21
ftado you mean nss/nspr/sqlite are never loaded?02:27
asacfta: are those in xul tree?02:42
asacfta: ah because of login manager? no. its just that it appears to be quite fragile and was unfinished in 1.9.002:42
asacat least from embedders point of view02:42
asacso breakage was expected. lets hope that it was justified by making things better :)02:42
asaci really have to do catch up  :)02:43
ftaasac, could i move 3.1 to official-branding? it was at b1 for 3.003:00

ftaasac, i've improved mozclient to support git18:07

alex_mayorgajcastro: thanks on the UDS notification :(18:43
alex_mayorgaanyone here?18:44
asacfta: i think we shouldnt go for the official branding until final23:15
asacfta: midbrowser is currently in maintenance mode23:15
pwnguinanyone know when firefox 3.1 is targeted to release?23:16
asacpwnguin: i think Jan-UNKNOWN 200923:19
pwnguinok23:19
asaci think Q123:19
asacbut [reed] would know better about latest schedule23:19
pwnguintheir public calendar isn't very informative23:19
pwnguinlots of meetings and some tenative plans from six months ago that lead up to a beta in september. well its now october ;)23:20
asacfta: one new feature that would be helpful would be to be able to produce full DEBUG packages23:27
asacfta: appears to be that full debug packages have different fiels (e.g. nothing is liniked into libxul.so, but the libxul components are top level .so components)23:27
ftaasac, please test midbrowser (mozclient)23:47
ftaI still have that disturbing issue with ff branding: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56044/23:48
