larsivimorning! in my adventure to achieve a better 8.10 desktop (at least as good as 8.04), I have now come to Kontact - I have two "custom" buttons (for spam handlnig) in the kmail toolbar that are only shown if I open KMail by itself, not inside Kontact - they are however shown for kmail part in the toolbar editor via kontact (so they really should show up)10:06

* apachelogger hands \\sh a cookie for endless wisdom :P12:39
apacheloggeranyway12:40
apacheloggerrgreening: about that merge stuff12:40
apacheloggerI found the problem12:40
apacheloggerthe bad news is: our QA sux12:40
apacheloggerthe second bad news is: this issue makes us non-standardish since the spec says one _has to_ search applications-merged12:41
apacheloggerthe (somewhat) good news is that it's not entirely our fault but also debian's ;-)12:41
\shapachelogger: hmmm...just hand me some aspirin as cookie ,-)12:41
ScottKIs the kubuntu_12_khtmlimagepart_linking.diff patch in our 4.1.3 packages too?12:42
apacheloggerthe (somewhat) second good news is that we can poke the ubuntu desktop team in the eye for using applications.menu for gnome, because the spec suggest otherwise for more-than-one-desktop-systems-with-distincted-menu-structure12:42
* apachelogger hands 12:42

ScottKYes12:44
ScottKJust reading intrepid-changes.12:44
apacheloggerdoesn't look like it12:44
apacheloggerit's pretty minor though12:44
* ScottK waves his hand vaguely in the direction of someone who will look into it.12:45
apacheloggerdefault installation comes with gwenview which superseds the kthmlimage part12:45
apacheloggerOo12:45
apacheloggerwhere does debian/patches/mini come from?12:46
* apachelogger looks at stdin12:46
ScottKWell we can't have a regression going from 4.1.2 -> 4.1.3.12:46
apacheloggerScottK: it's not a regression12:46
apacheloggerit wasn't working all of 4.0 and all of released 4.112:46
ScottKRight, but it just got fixed in our 4.1.2 packages and so if we don't fix it in 4.1.3, it'll be a regression.12:47
apacheloggertrue12:48
apacheloggerwho fixed it in .2?12:48
ScottKRiddell according to intrepid-changes.12:48
apacheloggerhm12:48
apacheloggerScottK: launchpad says the patch is also in backports12:49
apacheloggerapparently the nl mirror is slowish12:49
ScottKGreat.12:49
ScottKIn this case I'm willing to believe Launchpad.12:49
apacheloggernow, let's talk about the menu issue, because I have a feeling like my head will eventually explode from all the work today12:51

apacheloggerlol12:52
apachelogger 11_kde4_applications_menu.diff changes the KDE applications.menu to kde4-applications.menu... the spec doesn't, for whatever reason, enforce using a prefix, so it is up to the distributor to ensure gnome and kde don't conflict (both are claiming applications.menu)12:53
apacheloggerthe patch changes the file name also code-wise, however kbuildsycoca  will later on use that very file name to compose the name of the -merged directory12:53
apacheloggerso instead of applications-merged it will look for 3rd party menu enhancements in kde4-applications-merged12:54
apacheloggerthat is partly a KDE issue, as I said the spec clearly says applications-merged needs to be searched at any rate, which of course is ought to break when basing the directory name on a file name instead of hardcoding hit12:55
apacheloggers/hit/it12:55
=== heHATEme is now known as vorian
ScottKLovely.  5 of 5 hunks failed.12:56
apacheloggerthe spec also suggests that one should use the $XDG_MENU_PREFIX env variable12:56
apacheloggerso instead of patching the hardcoded name to kde4-applications.menu one would just change the installation name to said prefixed version and sets the menu prefix in (for example) startkde12:57
apacheloggerthat way kbuildsycoca will prefix any menu search path with kde4-12:57
apacheloggerso it essentially searches kde4-applications-merged and applications-merged12:58
apacheloggerthat means essentially the ubuntu gnome stuff doesn't follow the spec either as it is using applications.menu rather than gnome-applicaitons.menu12:58
ScottKNothing like getting to retype in the whole fricking patch by hand.12:59
ScottKapachelogger: This is for 4.2?12:59
apacheloggerany KDE12:59
ScottKi.e. Jaunty?12:59
apacheloggerthat is why we had to patch the menu file itself all the time12:59
* ScottK was envisioning a "please make the menu stuff not suck for KDE and Gnome" spec for UDS.13:00
apacheloggercourse of action for jaunty would be 1) changing gnomes applications.menu to use the prefix and set the XDG_MENU_PREFIX var in whatever script/application uses to start the desktop session 2) revising our's and debian's patch to _only_ change the name with which the applications.menu get installed 3) also use XDG_MENU_PREFIX in startkde13:01
ScottKSounds like great spec material.13:03
apacheloggercourse of action for intrepid would be to revise the patch and set XDG_MENU_PREFIX, however since this envolves changing two source packages it might be better to just use the same bloody workaround used in KDE 313:03
apacheloggerScottK: I wouldn't say it is specworthy, since there already is a spec ;-)13:04
apachelogger"Make Ubuntu follow all the fancy freedesktop specs without breaking stuff"13:04
ScottKYeah.13:04
apacheloggerthere should be quite some effort to make desktop files valid13:05
apacheloggernon-standard desktop files make my monochromisation work more difficult ;-)13:05
ScottKSounds like good work to throw your crack team of bat packagers at between KDE releases.13:06
apacheloggerIMHO that is good stuff for the mentoring program13:07
apacheloggerthe desktop entry spec is not too complex and one learns a good deal about patching and communication with upstream13:08
rgreeningapachelogger: pong13:09
apacheloggerrgreening: read my explosion above13:09
* Nightrose takes some pressure off apachelogger's head before it explodes13:10

apacheloggerhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=applications.menu&mode=exactfilename&suite=intrepid&arch=any13:11
apacheloggerstracing kbuildsycoca4 exposes the issue13:11
apacheloggerstracing it with XDG_MENU_PREFIX set shows how that var influences kbuildsycoca13:11
apacheloggerNightrose: thanks :*13:12
Nightrose:*13:12
rgreeningapachelogger: yeah. read. cool. Aa real problem, and not just for wine :)13:12
apacheloggerrgreening: I told you13:13
rgreeninglol13:13
apacheloggerthe problem is within the menu parsing13:13
rgreeningyeah. figured. thanks for digging...13:13
apacheloggerI also think we should poke some KDE dev to haxx0r something up to ensure applications-menu gets searched at any rate13:13
apachelogger 13:14
apachelogger Note that a system that uses either gnome-applications.menu or kde-applications.menu depending on the desktop environment in use must still use applications-merged as the default merge directory in both cases.13:14
rgreeningtrue. I agree, kde should be patched ot handle the default case in addition.13:14
apacheloggerwell, technically what the menu patch does is completely wrong, so I could understand if KDE doesn't want to do anything about it13:15
ScottKA bit of a line in the PPA world today: i386      83 builds waiting in queue13:16
apacheloggerwell, since a lot of buildds got lost...13:16
rgreeningapachelogger: maybe we should try and fix it correctly for Jaunty. we have some time. Then backport fixes13:16
apacheloggerrgreening: well, fixing it correctly is a must-do for jaunty13:17
apacheloggerbut as said, fixing it correctly in intrepid would mean rebuilding 2 packages13:17
apacheloggeri.e. reinstalling > 6 packages13:17
JontheEchidnahmm, trunk is looking pretty neat13:17
rgreeningapachelogger: but it would be correct hen.13:17
rgreeningapachelogger: I'll take correct over br0ken anyday13:18
apacheloggerwell, the bloody work around from KDE 3 is working as well, isn't it?13:18
apacheloggerand that one would only put a rebuild/update upon kde4libs and not also kdebase-workspace13:18
rgreeningapachelogger: yes, if you use specify the mergeDir13:18
rgreeningsure, then....13:19
rgreeningbut for Jaunty, we should fix apachelogger (IMO)13:19

* smarter tries to compile KDevelop415:49
apacheloggerkbuildsycoca is part of kdelibs, so I would assume some widgets would use the menutree15:50
Nightrosesmarter: neonmake?15:50
smarterdoes it work? :)15:50
apacheloggerin which case we probably have to patch anyway15:50
* apachelogger needs to check when he's home though15:50
apacheloggertime for the training15:50
apacheloggersmarter: of courese it does15:50
Nightrosesmarter: ramblurr uses it to compile amarok15:51
rgreeningapachelogger: startkde is one definate place it needs to be. the prefix should only be set if KDE is the DE running15:51

RiddellI heard he had a "love fest"16:52
* ScottK considers hot needles for his eyes.16:54
apacheloggerrgreening: technically it needs to be defined in kbuildsycoca16:58
NightroseRiddell: ipod should work yes17:04
apacheloggeractually jonny claimed it does not17:04
apacheloggerdue to our nogtk version17:04

apacheloggerrgreening: we have to revise the menu patch only17:10
apacheloggeropenwithdialog relys on the menutree17:10
apacheloggerif we only set the var in startkde openwithdialogs will not work properly in GNOME17:10
nixternalRiddell: last night went well...good turnout and good responses...I heard the gripes people had with Kubuntu and KDE and I am awaiting a few emails...people were super cool, so I told them if they had some itches that needed to be scratched I would help them out17:10
apacheloggerOo17:11

apacheloggerrgreening: apparently gnome also has implementation flaws with the spec ;-)17:11

Riddellapachelogger: should we look at putting kdebase-runtime's kubuntu_03_knetattach_use_sftp.diff upstream?17:18
Riddellit's http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12066917:18
ubottuKDE bug 120669 in general "I want to create a SFTP access" [Wishlist,New]17:19
Riddelland the question is should it offer fish and sftp or just sftp (i.e. is there much of a usecase for fish still)17:19
ScottKRiddell: Dunno about other distros, but Ubuntu supports SFTP since at least Dapper.17:20
Riddellmuch longer I expect17:20
ScottKWell that's the first one I used.17:21
rgreeningapachelogger: what do you suggest then instead of (or in addition to) patching startkde (I say in addition to cause the patch will guarantee XDG_MENU_PREFIX is set by testing for it and if not set, it will. Can stiil be set elsewhere).17:23
yuriyI've had somewhat better experience with fish than with sftp, though I don't remember what the issues I was running into with sftp were, but I ended up going back to fish when I tried it17:24
apacheloggerRiddell: I am not aware of possible implementation shortcomings so I can't really tell if only supporting sftp is sensible, fish only has a very limited use case though, also explaining the difference in the GUI might be a bit different17:24
apacheloggerbut in general that should go upstream someway17:24
apacheloggerrgreening: sec17:25
apacheloggerkded/vfolder_menu.cpp17:26
apacheloggerline 84417:26
* rgreening is looking...17:26
apacheloggerhardcode to etc/xdg/menus/applications-merged instead of using the basename17:26
apacheloggerrgreening: and leave the other change17:26
apacheloggerthat way we at least enforce applications-merged, I don't think kde4-applciations-merged would make any sense for anyone but distros anyway17:27
rgreeningapachelogger: that will break other parts of the spec. It could be something other than applications (IIRC from reading the spec)17:29
apacheloggerrgreening: only kde4-applications-merged, the other stuff stays unaffacted17:29
apacheloggeras I understand the code this line will only change the default location17:29
apacheloggeroh17:29
apacheloggerrgreening: another solution could be removing the check for the env var completely17:30
apacheloggerline 77317:30
apachelogger   QString xdgMenuPrefix = QString::fromLocal8Bit("kde4-");17:32
apacheloggerat least I think it would like that ;-)17:32
rgreeninghmmm...17:33
freglany hint on the best way to get cmake 2.6.2 for intrepid?17:33
rgreeninghackish... though forces kde4- prefix in KDE4 apps throughout.... hmmm17:34
Riddellfregl: it's in backports17:34
freglRiddell: I thought I had activated backports - my bad - thanks :)17:35
apacheloggerrgreening: well, you could keep the original line and just ensure xdgMenuPrefix is never empty17:36
apacheloggeri.e. if it is empty use kde4-17:36
apacheloggerthat way users can still override the menu file17:36
apacheloggerthat would probably be the best way17:37
rgreeningapachelogger: That's less hackish (i.e. more friendly) :)17:37
apacheloggerthat is not hackish at all17:37
apacheloggerI could even imagine a sensible upstream solution like that17:37
rgreeningOk, so, then we wouldn't need to patch kdebase-workspace (startkde) potentially...17:38
apacheloggercorreclt17:38
apacheloggery17:38
rgreeningok, let me try it out... see what I come up with...17:38
* apachelogger is feeling sickish17:39
ScottKapachelogger: You read about nixternal's love fest then?17:40
apacheloggeryes, I even was too afraid to ask17:40
freglswitching from hardy backports to intrepid helped ...17:41
apacheloggerhehe17:42
Riddellapachelogger: can you explain kde4libs patch kubuntu_11_fix_openwithdialog.diff to me?17:54
Riddellit looks like something which should go upstream17:55
apacheloggerhm, read backlog :P17:55
apacheloggerRiddell: upstream is implemented it in a more sensible way, dfaure said that the plan is to carry the complete kservice object around instead of just selected values17:55
Riddellapachelogger: so we'll drop that patch in 4.2?17:56
apacheloggeryup17:56

ubottuLaunchpad bug 297311 in kdebase-workspace "Analog clock spoiled after theme change" [Undecided,New]18:19
rgreeningapachelogger: Presumably, then XDG_MENU_PREFIX should be set by the application and not the DE? in order for the spec to work I mean... otherwise, how could a DE use other applications if the DE sets it to their prefix, which would then presumably break the non-DE app. Just a thought (sort of trying to justify to myslef the change we are making ot kdelibs).18:30
rgreeningapachelogger: anyway, the patch is uploaded. I have kde4libs compilng now do I can install/test it out.18:31

Nightrose:/19:06
JontheEchidnauh, I have no knowledge of those types of things. Who does device support in the amarok team?19:06
JontheEchidnaif you build with nogtk, cmake sez it won't support iPod artwork, but it turns out iPods don't get shown in the collection at all19:07
