huatshello seb12808:58
crevettesalut09:03
huatshey crevette09:03
seb128pitti: there?09:27
pittihey seb12809:27
seb128hey pitti09:27
seb128pitti: I've noticed you copied a bunch of updates to -updates thanks, anything blocking nautilus-sendto in hardy? still waiting on somebody to confirm the fixes?09:28
pittiseb128: yes, there's no response at all09:29
pittiseb128: at least confirm that the package still works (regressions)09:29
seb128I'll try to get pedro to comment on those ;-)09:29
pittieww, libgnome2-dev is uninstallable for me09:29
seb128pitti: btw did you copy totem-pl-parser to intrepid-updates?09:30
pittiseb128: no, I didn't copy anything to intrepid-updates yet09:30
pittiit's not old enough yet :)09:30
pittiseb128: I did copy them to jaunty, though09:30
seb128ah ok, right09:30
seb128I misread this mail ;-)09:30
seb128I didn't notice jaunty was already open09:31
pittiit isn't09:31
pittiyou can upload, but it's frozen09:31
pittifor the toolchain, I suppose09:31
pittibut copy-package doesn't build again, so that's fine09:31
seb128ok09:35
seb128bah, the bug flood is impressive09:35
seb128I got over 700 mails during the weekend and I'm not subscribed to all the desktop components09:35
pittiyeah, I got some 150 SRU bug mails09:37
pittithis morning I woke up and thought "nice, quiet day for doing some merges and so on"09:37
pittiuntil I opened mutt :)09:37
seb128;-)09:38
seb128mvo: nice trick for the default schemas value ;-)09:39
mvoseb128: could you please review https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/260492/comments/77 ? if its cool with you I will upload09:39
ubottuLaunchpad bug 260492 in gnome-panel "opening a directory using an application change associations incorrectly" [Medium,In progress]09:39
mvoseb128: thanks :)09:39
mvoseb128: so you read it already? oyu have jedi powers09:39
seb128mvo: great minds work together or what do you say? ;-)09:39
mvoheh :) yeah, "great minds work alike" or something like this :)09:39
seb128mvo: I was just looking at it09:39
seb128mvo: why do you have 2 GLists now?09:45
mvoseb128: I keep the head pointer so that I can properly g_list_free() it later, I asked friday if g_list_free(g_list_last()) would free the entire list or the list starting from the element that it starts from and it seems like its the later09:47
seb128mvo: ah, that's to free it09:47
mvoyes09:47
seb128mvo: could you name it l_copy or l_start rather? ;-)09:48
mvoit should be used just for that (unless I misused it elsewhere of course ;)09:48
seb128mvo: otherwise you still "g_object_unref(app);" in the case where app == NULL09:48
seb128mvo: dunno if that's a likely to happen case and if g_object_unref(NULL) is an issue or not09:48
mvoright, I check that09:49
mvogood point09:49
seb128mvo: otherwise that looks good to me, thanks for working on that!09:49
seb128did you try the code?09:49
seb128I can give it a try too if you want09:49
mvoseb128: yes, worked for me - if oyu try it, please make sure that you run the second version (comment 77) - the first one has the wrong version in the postinst check09:51
seb128mvo: ok09:51
pittiseb128: I'd appreciate a quick good/bad from you for bug 29090409:59
ubottuLaunchpad bug 290904 in pidgin "Pidgin missing dependency on gvfs-backends" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/29090409:59
mvoseb128: thanks, I fixed the g_unref(app) issue now too10:00
seb128mvo: and renamed the variable to l_start? ;-)10:06
mvodon't make me use quilt yet again for this change please ;)10:06
seb128mvo: use x-replace? ;-)10:07
mvohm, thats a idea10:07
seb128pitti: I would say it's not correct, I tried in a virt-inst and the gvfs errors are there in other softwares too10:07
seb128pitti: gvfs should depends on gvfs-backends10:08
pittiseb128: so it's not just a harmless warning, it is a real issue?10:08
pittiah, I see10:08
seb128pitti: pidgin doesn't use gvfs directly in any way so the depends is wrong placed there10:08
pittiit seemed weird to me to associate pidgin with gvfs10:08
seb128pitti: well, the warning is there for other applications, those don't crash though10:08
pittiexactly10:08
seb128but in any case the depends is wrong10:09
seb128there might be some code in pidgin not handling the broken setup but the depends would be a wrong workaround10:09
pittiseb128: so the depends rather belongs to libgvfscommon0 or gvfs10:10
seb128right10:10
seb128gvfs recommends gvfs-backends10:11
seb128so I would say it's not worth a sru in any case10:11
pittiseb128: what would happen if you install pidgin, but don't have any gvfs packages?10:11
seb128let me try to remove gvfs* in a kvm image10:12
seb128but as said pidgin doesn't use gvfs directly in any way10:12
seb128so if there is a bug that would rather be a glib one10:12
pittiright10:13
pittiseb128: merci10:13
seb128pitti: ok, uninstalling *gvfs* leads to pidgin working normally and displaying no warning10:20
pittiseb128: perfect then10:20
pittiseb128: I reject the bug then10:20
pittifor intrepid, anyway10:20
seb128pitti: the only case I get warning is when gvfs is installed and not gvfs-backends10:20
seb128and it doesn't crash10:20
pittifor jaunty, lifting recommends to depends is fine for me10:20
seb128pitti: I would rather say that the monitors should be moved to gvfs10:21
seb128and gvfs-backends just have the backends10:21
pittiseb128: or that; I updated the bug10:21
pittiseb128: merci!10:21
seb128thanks10:21
mvoseb128: could you write a TEST CASE section for the gnome-panel problem? i.e. how to set the association of a directory in hardy so that in intrepid the failure shows up?10:25
seb128mvo: ok10:25
mvothanks10:26
seb128mvo: testcase added10:42

ubottuLaunchpad bug 195580 in nautilus-sendto "Nautilus-sendto always uses first entry in the combo-box" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19558013:55
seb128a sru which is waiting for anybody to verify it for 38 days now13:55
seb128I did the upload so I'm trying to find somebody to confirm nautilus-sendto still works for him or her and fix the bug13:55
Nafalloseb128: ah. I don't use evolution :-)13:56
seb128huats: if you want to do some testing in your vm feel free ;-)13:57
huatsseb128: sure13:59
seb128huats: how is the gucharmap update going btw?14:00
seb128hey hggdh14:00

huatsso I'll do that in the late afternoon  if everything is OK till  that :)14:02
seb128did you find anything interesting?14:02
huatsno not really14:02
huatsit is not the nvidia stuffs, since I experience the same things with nv14:03
huatsand it is not the wifi module either (since it happens also without it loaded)14:03
huatsand apparently I don't experience freezes on a fresh install on the same computer14:04
seb128weird thing14:04
seb128good luck to debug this one ;-)14:04
