dotancohenSVN commit 87600211:12
dotancohenThanks11:12
Arbythanks11:12
Arbyif it's included in the 4.1.3 release it should hit kubuntu when we package 4.1.3 which should be soon11:13
Arbyif it's only in trunk it'll end up in 4.211:13
Arbywe might be able to backport it if necessary11:13
ArbyI'll have a look11:13
a|wenArby: exactly which file are you planning to patch?11:15
Arbya|wen: .kde/share/config/akregatorrc11:15
a|wenArby: but that is the local configuration-file ... shouldn't you need to patch the global one11:16
Arbypossibly, that's just what I found that works11:16
* Arby looks for the global file11:17
a|wenArby: /usr/share/kde4/config.kcfg/akregator.kcfg11:17
dotancohenThanks, Arby. If I need a backport (I cannot use KDE 4 without it) should I file a bug report, or is there a prefered way>11:17
dotancohen?11:17

dotancohenWill do, thanks.11:18

ArbyI'm not sure of the exact process but at least we've got a record of the info11:18
Arbya|wen: strange, because that's not what happens11:20
a|wenArby: the process is that the file .kde gets written the first time ... and the info used to start the first time is gotten from the kcfg-file (IIRC)11:20
Arbyexcept that it isn't happening11:20
Arbybrb11:21

a|wenArby: choose viewmode combined and exit akregator ... see the akregtorrc file now it has the dreaded 0 ... open akregator again and immediately choose viewmode normal11:27

a|wenArby: hehe :)11:30
Arbya|wen: yes, you're right11:31
Arbya|wen: on switching viewmodes it isn't reading the correct default layout information11:32
Arbyhmmph, that's much harder to fix11:33
Arbyand well beyond my skills11:33
a|wenArby: or it might be that it shouldn't write 0 in the first place ... when viewmode combined is used it shouldn't fiddle with the splitter 2 option at all11:34
Arbya|wen: what happens if you choose viewmode=normal then close akregator, remove akregatorrc then reopen?11:35
Arbyin my case it recreates akregatorrc with the 0 in splitter 211:35
* Arby goes to make coffee, my brain hurts11:35
a|wenArby: it works exatcly as it should here (value = 150) ... remember to let akregator close completely before deleting the akregatorrc file11:37
Arbyhmm11:40
Arbyok it worked right this time, fail on my part there then11:41
ArbyI think I'll build a clean intrepid vm and see what happens there11:43
a|wenArby: sounds strange if it does that ... but on the other hand, we know there is someting wrong in the viewport code11:45
Arbya|wen: yeah, I have to assume that one was my bad :)11:46

Arbyapachelogger: with your core dev hat on when do you think that will land in kubuntu?12:33
Arbypresumably 4.2 at the earliest12:33
apacheloggerwell12:33
apacheloggerthat depends partly on KDE12:33
apacheloggerif they are going to include the plasmoid into 4.2, then KDE 4.2 is the latest :P12:34
apacheloggerearliest would be that we create a svn snapshot of the plasmoid and deploy it via KDE 4 ppa12:34
Arbydo you think it's important enough to try and backport?12:35
apacheloggerIMHO we should be ashamed and kick ourselfs in the arse for the status of accessibility in 8.1012:36
apacheloggerso, yes, it is12:36
Arbyok, and what would be the required steps to do that?12:36
apacheloggergrab the source, try building it, hope it builds, create a snapshot package if it does build12:37
apacheloggerif it does not build: create a snapshot package, and patch it to buildable state12:37
ArbyI'm prepared to try the grab it and attempt build part12:38
ArbyI'll need help to package it12:38
Arbyand I'll definitely need help if it needs patching12:38

Arbythis kdepim bug is too hard for me anyway :(12:40

rgreeninghmm... let me get the source and have a look at the control files.17:03

apacheloggerworkspace19:18
apacheloggerEBS in 7 hours19:19
ScottKHow long ago did you retry it?19:19
ScottKThat's the last one before you can kick them all off, right?19:19
apacheloggerabout the same time I triggered runtime19:19
apacheloggerScottK: yes19:19
apacheloggerhppa      28 builds waiting in queue19:20
apachelogger:S19:20
ScottKOK.  Then I'd say go ahead and retry the rest to get them in queue.19:20
apacheloggerok19:20
rgreeningapachelogger: maybe we should disable the python plasma patch for the time being... as much as I hate to say it.19:21
apacheloggeroh right19:21
rgreeningapachelogger: thoughts?19:21
apacheloggerScottK: -workspace will FTBFS19:21
ScottKOh.  Why?19:22
apacheloggerrgreening: it certainly blocks ScottK's effort to get HPPA built19:22
rgreeningcirc dep19:22
apacheloggerScottK: it circular depends bindings19:22
rgreeningyeah. let's remove it19:22
ScottKUrgh.19:22
apacheloggerrgreening: would we need to revert the stuff in kde4bindings as well?19:23
rgreeningno19:23
apacheloggerok19:23
rgreeningit's a plugin factory.. can be used by anything.19:23
rgreening:)19:23
rgreeningso, let me see about a diff...19:23
rgreeningapachelogger: how do you mark in the control file to not build a package (besides commenting it out)19:24
apacheloggercommenting out19:24
apacheloggeror removing19:24
ScottKIt's to late to do another upload for Intrepid.19:25
rgreeningok. didn't know if there was a nice directive to not build19:25
ScottKWe'll just have to let it go and look at SRU.19:25
rgreening?19:25
rgreeningtoo late to fix the circ dep build19:25
ScottKYes.19:25
rgreeningoh dam19:25
apacheloggerScottK: are the langpacks fixed yet?19:26
ScottKIt's already built on all archs except hppa, right?19:26
apacheloggerScottK: failed on LPIA as well19:26
ScottKDunno how it came out.  The source pacakges are building now.19:26
Arbyapachelogger: are you happy with plasmoid-applet-kbstate as a name or do you prefer plasmoid-kbstate?19:26
ScottKEarly word was 'better'.19:26
rgreeningArby: -applet- is standard19:26
apacheloggerArby: no, it is redundant :P19:26
ScottKRight, but a new source upload now would suck up a large amount of buildd time on all archs.19:27
rgreening-applet- and -dataengine- are standard19:27
ScottKCircular build-dep is worth fixing, but do it post release in an SRU now.19:27
Arbyfine, I'm not bothered either way19:27
apacheloggerrgreening: they are not19:27
apacheloggerrgreening: apt-cache search plasmoid-19:27
apacheloggerScottK: ok with me19:27
Arbyplasmoid-kbstate it is19:27
rgreeningapachelogger: from what I see, it's what they are using.19:27
apacheloggerbut not we19:28
rgreeningoh wait, is this the applet or the package?19:28
apacheloggerrgreening: still up to discussion with debian19:28
rgreeningpackage, doesn't matter. I was thinking the applet name once installed19:28
apacheloggerbut IIRC the tendence is to stick applet and dataengine together19:28
rgreeninganyway, what should I do then with kdebase-workspace19:29
apacheloggernothing19:29
apacheloggerleave it alone19:29
rgreeningok19:29
rgreeningwill do19:29
apacheloggerrgreening: I will target the circ dep for intrepid-updates and assign you, we definitely need to talk with _Sime_19:29
rgreeningI agree.19:30
apacheloggerthe fact that the cmakelists suggest that KDE has a circ dep itself19:30
rgreeningSounds like a plan.19:30
rgreeningapachelogger: I think it may need to be moved from workspace... just not sure how yet.19:30
rgreening_Sime_ should be able to offer suggestions/assistance (maybe doesn't realize there is a circ dep)19:31
apacheloggerrgreening: fiddled with the bug, now get some rest :)19:33
apacheloggerrgreening++ for working with migraine ;-)19:33
rgreeningIf only my headache would go away19:33
rgreeninglol19:33
rgreeningty19:33
ScottKBTW, if you get a good fix for the circular build-dep it can be uploaded to intrepid-proposed now.  It'll get accepted just after release.19:35
* apachelogger couldn't think of one 19:36
rgreeningthanks ScottK: I'll try a few things. My fallback plan is to remove the patch altogether (though it's my last resort).19:36
ScottKIf it's not resolvable without removing the patch, it might be good to chat with upstream about what goes where so we aren't similarly screwed in 4.2.19:38
rgreening_Sime_ will be the one who needs to know19:39
apacheloggerScottK: please take a look at bug 28148719:39

apacheloggersee the last example19:47
Arbylet me play a bit19:47
apacheloggerArby: you basically need to a svn co && tar czf && rm -rf19:47
apacheloggerin fact I guess you can just copy the last example and replace the first 2 lines with your svn one and changes the other stuff to fit your case19:48
ArbyI'll work at it, give me a while19:48

apacheloggerArby: anway, I supposed it should be working, not very dynamic, but working ;-)19:56
Arbyapachelogger: the ;\ stuff is in the example19:56
Arbyand what's wrong with it19:56
apacheloggerhm19:56
ArbyI'd rather learn to do it right now19:56
apacheloggerArby: just not needed ;-)19:57
* smarter thinks he should create a bzr branch with his get-orig-stuff and includes them in all his packages19:57
Arbyif I start doing it wrong I'll keep doing it wrong for ever19:57
apacheloggersmarter: lolz19:57
Arby(that's how my brain works)19:57
apacheloggerhm19:57
apacheloggerjust imagine if ubuntu development was like Arby's brain :P19:57
smarterhehe19:57
apacheloggerBIG trouble19:57
smarterIn fact, I think that cdbs should include a get-orig-source.mk19:58
smarterwhich does some magic stuff19:58
apacheloggersmarter: you could write a fancy wiki page GetOrigSourceDoneProperlyForKDE19:58
smarterand let you change some variables19:58
Arbymy brain is overloaded and slightly broken, this is not news :)19:58

apacheloggerthe current page is crap IMHO19:59
smarteryup19:59
apacheloggeryou are not really learning anything19:59
smarterand I'm still not sure about that DEBIAN_DIR := $(shell echo ${MAKEFILE_LIST} | awk '{print $$1}' | xargs dirname )19:59
smarterI put it in my scripts, but I don't understand why it would be needed20:00
apacheloggershouldn't20:00
apacheloggerthat var should be defined by debhelper (or cdbs)20:00
apacheloggerone of the 2 at least20:00
smarterand it's only used for cd ${DEBIAN_DIR}/..20:00
smarterwhich is probably equivalent to cd ${CURDIR}20:01
apacheloggeryus20:01
apacheloggerthough20:01
apacheloggerit might not in some cases :P20:01
smarterbut I don't know in what case curdir is not the current dir :P20:01
smarteryup20:01
apacheloggerCURDIR shoudl always be CURDIR otherwise it's a bug IMHO20:01
smartercdbs seems to rely on CURDIR having debian/ inside20:02
smarterhmm, looks like it's not defined by dh nor cmake20:03

Arbyapachelogger: any further comments before I push this branch again20:04

apacheloggerArby: trunk/KDE/kdelibs/COPYING20:06
apacheloggerplease svn co that file inside the source directory20:06
apacheloggerotherwise the licensing is incomplete20:06
Arbyso that needs to be part of the orig.tar.gz?20:07
ScottKapachelogger: pinentry-qt4 works fine for me (I checked that's where the alternative was pointing to and I do not have pinentry-qt installed at all).20:07
apacheloggerArby: yes, you will need to modify the get-orig-source accordingly ;-)20:07
apacheloggerhm20:09
apacheloggerScottK: the gpg.conf txwikinger attached says no-use-agent20:09
apacheloggerline 20320:09
apacheloggercould that be the problem?20:10
xerosisdoes anyone know if kcm_display is around in intrepid?20:14
Arbyapachelogger: how does this look http://paste.ubuntu.com/62982/ ?20:20
apacheloggerArby: did you try it? ;-)20:21
ArbyI tried all the steps individually20:21
Arbynot as a bundle20:21
apacheloggerArby: make -f debian/rules get-orig-source20:22
Arbymake: Nothing to be done for `get-orig-source'.20:23
apacheloggerArby: lines within any target need to start with a tab, not whitespaces20:25
* Arby changes the settings in kate20:25
Arbyapachelogger: the make command still returns Nothing to be done20:30
apacheloggerwell, commit and push I will take a look20:31
* Arby goes to wrestle with bzr again20:32
apacheloggerhuh? Oo20:32
ScottKapachelogger: Then it shouldn't use an agent at all.  Yes.20:32
Arbyarrgh20:34
* Arby realises what he was doing wrong20:34
Arbytoo many copies of the debian directory lying around :)20:35
Arbychanged the wrong one20:35
Arbymake works now20:35
* Arby smacks himself round the head20:35
ScottKapachelogger: I think we ought to look at 289630 for an early SRU20:41
apacheloggerScottK: then we would have to do that for almost every package20:46
ScottKapachelogger: Is there a metapackage we could do it with?20:48
apacheloggerScottK: no, that is the problem, it would be taken care of by kubuntu-desktop20:49
apacheloggerthat dood didn't have it installed, so the upgrade didn't work properly20:49

claydohbut I agree, once its out it will all be good :)21:25
claydohit already has in kubuntuforums. they actually read and learn in there21:26
apacheloggerclaydoh: if not, we should consider creating some policy about it, looking at the amount of mails dedicated to KDE 3 vs. KDE 4 I don't think kubuntu-users is of much use anymore21:26
claydohhmm21:27
claydohdangerous, but maybe necessary21:29
JontheEchidnaI'd just go "LOL TOO LATE" for the lulz21:30
claydohbut really im k-u, it is only about 6 people doing most of the posting on any given subject anyway21:31
apacheloggerclaydoh: I don't see the danger, we could just create some mailing list on launchpad kubuntu-discussion and tell them that any further discussion about whether "we" should have switched to KDE 4 or not is to be done there21:31

Arbyanything obviously missing from https://wiki.kubuntu.org/RichardBirnie21:50
apacheloggerRiddell: better than before, still a lot of in-your-face untranslated strings though21:54
apacheloggermight be caused by conflict between lp and kde po import I'd guess21:54
Riddellthat wouldn't leave things untranslated21:54
apacheloggerRiddell: well, it would turn them fuzzy, wouldn't it?21:55
Riddellapachelogger: shouldn't do21:56
apacheloggerhum21:56
apacheloggerRiddell: for some reason there are untranslated strings :(21:57
apacheloggerkmail's view menu only got 3 translated strings21:58
Riddellfrench has some too21:58
apacheloggerRiddell: not just some for german, half of dolphin's menubar items are still untranslated22:01
=== thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak
apacheloggerkonqueror is mostly complete, except for the "go to" menu22:02
apacheloggerplasma seems to be pretty much complete22:03
apacheloggerthe generic KCM buttons are untranslated22:04
* JontheEchidna likes the new oxygen scrollbars: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zDPqioLuxns/SQSLu7XLiiI/AAAAAAAAAD0/uXk8U5E8BHU/s1600-h/tooltips.png22:04
apacheloggerRiddell: ok, I think the mostly untranslated dolphin menu is the most annoying22:08
apacheloggerthere are a couple of untranslated ones in the games, but nothing grave, and I doubt anyone would read mails without internet, meaning without upgrading22:09
=== thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak
apacheloggerArby: I'd add some personal informatin to the wiki page as well22:29
Arbyok22:29
ScottK-palmLooks like the .de lang pack is built.  Did anyone check it yet?22:29
apacheloggerScottK-palm: it's not 100%, dolphin and kmail menu items are still pretty untranslated, everything else looks good22:30
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: due to a Qt caching issue I have them in 4.1 as well :P22:31
JontheEchidnanice :P22:31
ScottK-palmNot horrible then.  Way better than it might have been.22:31
apacheloggerScottK-palm: yeah, dolphin is a bit concerning, but since most stuff is translated, I think we are in pretty good shape22:33
apacheloggerArby: Vcs-bzr shouldn't have been removed from control ;-)22:34
ArbyI thought I did that.22:35

Arbyoh wait hang on22:35
ArbyI removed it because it was wrong22:35
apacheloggerfix it then :P22:35
* Arby fixes it22:35
ScottK-palmI still don't see what dolphin does that konqueror doesn't. There's a good alternative.22:35
apacheloggerScottK-palm: we don't use konqueror by default as file manger22:36
apacheloggerI am concerned about the out-of-box usability22:36
apacheloggerArby: why odes it depend on kde-window-manager? first line of description could use a whitespace, the following lines of description should only start with one whitespace22:37
Arbyapachelogger: I lifted the packaging from another plasmoid, forgot to remove that dep22:38
apacheloggerArby: rules is still missing a final newline, get-orig-source is not working properly ... one thing about rules: everytime you start a newline, the directory get reset to the primary source dir, so in case of the COPYING stuff you would actually need the ; \ magic22:39
apacheloggerArby: usually you would want to document the patch, and what it is doing/why it is needed in debian/changelog ... looking good otherwise22:40
Arbyapachelogger: what is get-orig-source doing wrong, it worked for me.22:40
apachelogger-(~/src/bzr/kbstate-applet:$)-> ls22:41
apacheloggerCOPYING  debian  plasmoid-kbstate_0.0+svn876002.orig.tar.gz22:41

ArbyCOPYING is not where it ought to be?22:42
apacheloggerexactly22:42
ScottK-palmWe probably ought to consider release noting some lang pack stuff.22:43
apacheloggerArby: the cause is that rules resets the direct with every new command, so cd DIR is only going to work if you make it one command ... i.e. cd DIR; svn co blah22:43
