| pitti | Good morning | 06:57 |
| pitti | ArneGoetje: hi | 06:57 |
| seb128 | hello there | 08:14 |
| * pitti has updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus | 08:31 | |
| pitti | quite a number of new issues | 08:31 |
| pitti | I need a two hour block of intense hacking to work on my RC bugs; back later | 08:32 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: hi | 08:32 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: could you open your rhythmbox bug upstream too? ;-) | 08:33 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: hey seb | 08:33 |
| * seb128 read emails from the night | 08:33 | |
| robert_ancell | yes, was going to do that... | 08:33 |
| * robert_ancell is bug juggling | 08:33 | |
| seb128 | hey mvo | 08:36 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: how was your day? what did you work on? | 08:36 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: now I remember... You said not to confirm your own bugs so I was waiting for someone to do that. (which has now been done) | 08:36 |
| mvo | hey seb128 | 08:36 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: well you can open your bugs upstream directly though ;-) | 08:37 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: there is no point to have you open it on launchpad to get me to do the forwarding to bugzilla.gnome.org for example | 08:37 |
| seb128 | opening directly to bugzilla is a win for everybody | 08:37 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: I spent some more time on 300954 but haven't really made any more progress. I don't have good knowledge of this layer so making slow progress - any other eyes greatly welcome | 08:38 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: ok, don't spend to much time on it, it's sort of a corner case | 08:39 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: other than that mostly triaging. Been trying to get vinagre bugs all upstream | 08:39 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: I got some other higher priority bugs on my list though if you want to have a look to some of those | 08:39 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: good ;-) | 08:39 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: a list of bugs would be good. I still don't have a good overview of the problems out there so I'm kind of starting at the bottom hunting for bugs to fix (which is also good so I know which bugs are duplicates) | 08:40 |
| seb128 | does anybody has gnome-sound-properties freezing? | 08:40 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: regarding the rhythmbox issue: I opened that against Ubuntu because | 08:41 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: a) I didn't have a GNOME checkout | 08:41 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: b) It will affect other Ubuntu users | 08:41 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~desktop-bugs, click on the advanced search and select milestoned 9.04 and you get a list of issues that would be nice to work on for jaunty | 08:41 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: right, I would advice to open on launchpad and upstream in those case or make a comment saying that you will forward upstream after investigation so bug triagers don't pick it up for you | 08:42 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: I usually don't bother testing on svn we have recent version (ie the current tarball is 2 weeks old) | 08:43 |
| seb128 | but if you test with svn that's better ;-) | 08:43 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: cool. will do in the future. | 08:44 |
| seb128 | thanks | 08:44 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: do you have an ipod? ;-) | 08:44 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: I have a 2nd gen iPod (somewhere) | 08:44 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: bug #312902 might be not too hard to fix, it's pretty well described in the upstream bug with the faulty code etc | 08:45 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 312902 in rhythmbox "Rhythmbox asks to overwrite files during transfer to iPod" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/312902 | 08:45 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: that would be worth fixing if you want to have a look tomorrow | 08:45 |
| robert_ancell | ok, will do | 08:45 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: it's just the filename randomization which is not random enough | 08:45 |
| seb128 | it cames with several time the same filename for different track easily | 08:46 |
| seb128 | thanks | 08:46 |
| seb128 | I will add some bugs today to the milestoned list so feel free to watch that list daily too if you want to pick on new jaunty bugs to fix | 08:46 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: question regarding .deb bug 39812 - is there anything else that can be asked to work out what failed? | 08:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 39812 in libgnome "installation breaks with 'subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 245'" [Medium,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39812 | 08:47 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: well if the crash happened only one the odd are that either gconftool-2 or scrollkeeper-update crashed | 08:48 |
| seb128 | that happens sometime but never when you try to valgrind it or not often enough for that | 08:49 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: would that be logged anywhere? | 08:49 |
| seb128 | no | 08:49 |
| seb128 | the scrollkeeper-update bugs usually seems to be corruptions | 08:49 |
| seb128 | we have the libc stacktraces but that's not useful | 08:49 |
| seb128 | we would need a valgrind log | 08:49 |
| seb128 | some of those issues are also local corruptions, faulty ram or disk errors | 08:50 |
| seb128 | those bugs are either clear issues or weird cases | 08:50 |
| seb128 | don't focus on weird cases | 08:50 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: so what to do? Close out? | 08:50 |
| seb128 | that one is closed yes | 08:50 |
| seb128 | I usually ask if that happens every time, if "sudo apt-get -f install" still trigger the bug | 08:51 |
| seb128 | and close the bug if it doesn't saying that was a glitch and that we lack informations to debug it | 08:51 |
| seb128 | that's not optimal so if you have a better idea on how to debug those or ask for details feel free to do it ;-) | 08:52 |
| robert_ancell | no, I have no ideas (except it would be nice if there was some more loggin) | 08:55 |
| seb128 | indeed | 08:55 |
| seb128 | that's probably not a priority for jaunty now | 08:55 |
| seb128 | the rush is on fixing user visible issues | 08:55 |
| seb128 | but we should work on that next cycle | 08:56 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: another bug question - there are number of bugs like bug 212629 where the issue affects multiple ubuntu packages - how do you stop it affecting a package? For instance this bug was opened against vinagre, then linked to vino so it doesn't really affect vinagre now | 08:57 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 212629 in vino "VNC should confirm granting control of desktop" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/212629 | 08:57 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: usually better to change the component than opening a new task | 08:58 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: just mark the vinagre task invalid if there 2 tasks and only one is correct | 08:58 |
| robert_ancell | ok | 08:58 |
| robert_ancell | seb128: calling it a night here, any requests? I'll try and find some meatier bugs tomorrow | 09:00 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell: no, don't spend too much time on side issues but look at the milestoned bugs and help triaging if you can ;-) | 09:02 |
| robert_ancell | later all | 09:02 |
| seb128 | james_w: hey, congrats you have broken gnome-panel ;-) | 09:12 |
| mvo | asac: python-xpcom is not installable, is that something we care about? | 09:12 |
| seb128 | james_w: it's only on NX setups so no real worry, I commented on the upstream bug about that | 09:14 |
| james_w | ah, good to know, thanks | 09:14 |
| james_w | I assume we'll give it a few days to improve the patch, and then revert if necessary? | 09:15 |
| seb128 | james_w: right | 09:15 |
| james_w | cool, thanks | 09:15 |
| seb128 | np, thanks for the work on the bug ;-) | 09:16 |
| asac | mvo: no | 09:29 |
| asac | pitti: actually should be removed from archive together with all xul 1.8 | 09:29 |
| asac | i asked lool about mobile-basic-flash, he said they dont need it. i will reconfirm that now ;) | 09:30 |
| asac | oh lool is here ;) ^^ | 09:30 |
| asac | pitti: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/352968 | 09:56 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 352968 in xulrunner "remove xulrunner 1.8 and all left over rdepend binaries from jaunty archive." [High,Triaged] | 09:56 |
| pitti | asac: I see; the archive admins will care for that, thanks | 10:16 |
| asac | thx | 10:17 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| Ng | re the indicator applet, on all the other jaunty machines in the office people seem to get a little panel applet with an envelope in it. I don't (having added it to the panel). Is that because I'm using empathy and not pidgin, so nothing is talking to it so it's staying hidden? or should I file a bug? | 10:55 |
| pitti | Ng: it's meant to appear when pidgin or evolution are running | 10:56 |
| Ng | fair enough. I'll wait for the future to catch up with me and be Empathy ;) | 10:56 |
| Ng | thanks ;) | 10:56 |
| pitti | heh, no problem | 10:56 |
| asac | so tracker is still completely broken? | 10:59 |
| asac | i told him to index one folder only | 10:59 |
| asac | that folder has only one file in it | 11:00 |
| asac | still it indexes all the time :( | 11:00 |
| asac | and no info given what its currently indexing either (e.g. no mouse hover info) | 11:00 |
| seb128 | asac: open bugs on launchpad, upstream is tracking issues there | 11:01 |
| asac | ok. those appeared to be so obvious that i wondered if its maintained at all ;) | 11:01 |
| asac | is anyone using tracker here? or am i alone? | 11:01 |
| seb128 | I don't, I don't think it does anything useful | 11:02 |
| seb128 | and it does create io load | 11:02 |
| asac | seb128: do we install it by default still? | 11:02 |
| seb128 | no | 11:02 |
| asac | ok | 11:02 |
| seb128 | bryce: could you comment on why you think bug #337926 is ct-rev? | 11:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 337926 in xfree86-driver-synaptics "vino: mouse cursor stays in upper left corner" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/337926 | 11:04 |
| chrisccoulson | asac - i used to use tracker but I stopped using it in Jaunty as my machine grinds to a halt when it's indexing | 11:05 |
| bryce | seb128: insufficient explanation why it was assigned in the first place | 11:08 |
| bryce | esp. with bugs that are med prior, you really need to justify why you assign to me, when there are so many high prio X bugs that need attention | 11:08 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: yes. i think the problem is that its indexing full HOME ... no matter what | 11:09 |
| asac | filed bug 353008 | 11:09 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 353008 in tracker "tracker indexes all the time even though only "one" folder with "one" file configured for indexing" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/353008 | 11:09 |
| bryce | at this stage, even with high prio bugs, I am focusing my priorities on ones that have patches or for which a patch is pretty easy to figure out. | 11:09 |
| asac | also bug 353010 | 11:10 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 353010 in tracker "tracker applet doesn't show what directory/file it currently indexes" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/353010 | 11:10 |
| seb128 | bryce_: it basically makes vnc unusable for synaptic users in jaunty apparently | 11:10 |
| seb128 | *shrug* | 11:10 |
| chrisccoulson | asac - interesting, i'll try that when i get home. | 11:10 |
| chrisccoulson | i normally use tracker to index my entire home folder, so i didn't notice that | 11:11 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: yeah. but even that is most likely just doing something wrong | 11:11 |
| asac | i looked at statistics and even though it indexed for 3 days now (the folder with 1 file) | 11:11 |
| asac | i only have a few files indexed | 11:11 |
| asac | so it definitly makes a lot of noise for nothing | 11:12 |
| asac | fixing that might also make indexing HOME better | 11:12 |
| chrisccoulson | that definately sounds like something is wrong | 11:12 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson: btw want to do the tracker update? | 11:12 |
| asac | i think we want a desktop indexer at some point ;) | 11:12 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - yeah, i can work on that | 11:12 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson: there is a new bug fix version, debian did update already | 11:12 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson: thanks! | 11:12 |
| asac | its a shame that it became worse since we first tried to get it installed by default | 11:12 |
| asac | hmm | 11:13 |
| bryce | seb128: honestly I think there are worse X bugs... | 11:13 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: if you need a sponsor let me know ;) | 11:13 |
| seb128 | bryce: right, not a reason to drop the bug on the ground though | 11:13 |
| bryce | seb128: however if y'all uncover a patch I'd be happy to put it in. | 11:13 |
| chrisccoulson | asac - for me, i don't think it's entirely a tracker issue. anything that involves any moderate disk IO on my machine grinds it to a halt, to the point that the mouse cursor stutters and pauses for several seconds at a time | 11:13 |
| seb128 | bryce: not likely I'm not using synaptic, would "downgrade the synaptic xorg package to the intrepid version" do? ;-) | 11:14 |
| bryce | seb128: how does "unassign myself" == "drop the bug on the ground"?? | 11:14 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: yeah, but tracker infinitely grinding doesnt make things better ... even for your IO issues ;) | 11:14 |
| seb128 | bryce: well that's what I meant ct-rev to mean == "not really something we care about" | 11:14 |
| chrisccoulson | i agree :) | 11:14 |
| asac | seb128: want something to smile? | 11:14 |
| asac | seb128: http://www.sofaraway.org/ubuntu/tmp/karma-seb128.png ;) | 11:14 |
| seb128 | asac: always ;-) | 11:14 |
| seb128 | lol | 11:15 |
| asac | somehow makes all your 24/7 bug work voiud | 11:15 |
| asac | but still funny | 11:15 |
| asac | even me got a boost : http://www.sofaraway.org/ubuntu/tmp/karma-asac.png | 11:15 |
| pitti | ?? | 11:15 |
| seb128 | asac: they count all the translations updates for the uploads you do | 11:15 |
| asac | pitti: look at the ridiculous translation karma everbody gets for uploads | 11:15 |
| pitti | that's a bug | 11:15 |
| asac | seb128: noticed that ;) | 11:16 |
| asac | obviously yes ;) | 11:16 |
| asac | (bug) | 11:16 |
| seb128 | asac: I'm still beating you on the karma level so that's good :-P | 11:16 |
| asac | damn ... | 11:16 |
| * asac searches for new tricks | 11:16 | |
| seb128 | the answer tracker seems to pay a lot too | 11:17 |
| asac | let me reupload nm-applet like 100 times ;) | 11:17 |
| asac | seb128: yeah. your answer work seems to carry fruits | 11:17 |
| bryce | true glory only comes from bug tracker karma ;-) | 11:17 |
| asac | do you just move everything thats stupid to answer tracker? | 11:17 |
| asac | bryce: previously true glory also came from translations | 11:18 |
| asac | you had to translate like 100k strings to get 30k karma ;) | 11:18 |
| seb128 | asac: yes | 11:18 |
| asac | now you upload gnome apps and get a massive boost ;) | 11:18 |
| seb128 | asac: bugs which are "nautilus doesn't work please fix it" -> answer tracker | 11:18 |
| asac | seb128: i always feel a bit reluctant about doing that because i feel like i should actually make a real question out of it | 11:19 |
| asac | and often its mostly like "nothing works here, help!" | 11:19 |
| asac | but maybe i should just convert those things too | 11:19 |
| seb128 | asac: days only have 24 hours and I get enough good quality bugs to be busy during those | 11:19 |
| asac | seb128: do you follow how well those "stupid" bugs get resolved after making questions out of them? | 11:20 |
| seb128 | there is no point to keep noise there | 11:20 |
| seb128 | no, I just ignore those | 11:20 |
| asac | ;) | 11:20 |
| seb128 | the answer tracker guys manage to bounce that back as a bug if they figure that's one | 11:20 |
| seb128 | otherwise I let them deal with answering to users | 11:20 |
| seb128 | enough real bug emails to read | 11:20 |
| asac | seb128: can someone make bugs out of them again? | 11:21 |
| seb128 | yes | 11:21 |
| asac | i think i had questions that suddenly reappeared as bugs | 11:21 |
| seb128 | there is a convert to bug button there | 11:21 |
| asac | ok so thats normal | 11:21 |
| seb128 | the same way there is a convert to question on the bug page | 11:21 |
| asac | seb128: can the reporter do that? | 11:21 |
| seb128 | I think so | 11:21 |
| asac | ok thats explains it | 11:22 |
| asac | so convert to question is still not the "push into sink where reporter cannot come back from again" | 11:22 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: are you doing bug triage on tracker a bit too? | 11:28 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: almost all crashes are still private ... not sure if upstream sees them | 11:28 |
| seb128 | asac: upstream is doing but they will probably not no | 11:28 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: we should at least open them up for upstream ... or subscribe upstream | 11:29 |
| seb128 | I expect most can be marked public, we just need to do that on a regular basis | 11:29 |
| asac | maybe adding "tracker" project part would make them open for them? | 11:29 |
| seb128 | shame that we don't get emails about apport-crash bugs | 11:29 |
| asac | seb128: right. i am currently looking for someone who could do that regularly ;) | 11:30 |
| asac | agree. emails would be nice to trigger bug triage interrupts | 11:30 |
| seb128 | asac: tracker has been mostly rewritten this year, work paid by nokia apparently | 11:30 |
| seb128 | asac: the current team is eager to fix the issue we have too | 11:30 |
| asac | do we have that rewrite? | 11:30 |
| === eeejay is now known as eeejay_hummus | ||
| seb128 | yes | 11:30 |
| seb128 | that 0.6.9n | 11:30 |
| seb128 | that's 0.6.9n | 11:30 |
| asac | hmm. so maybe thats the reason it appears like a regression to me | 11:30 |
| seb128 | well there is people paid to work full time on it I think | 11:31 |
| seb128 | so just make sure to open bugs | 11:31 |
| seb128 | they rolled a new bug fix version some days ago | 11:31 |
| seb128 | and they told me they watch launchpad to fix issues reported tehre | 11:31 |
| asac | i dont have time for more bug work ;) ... i can do that sporadically, but not reliably ;) | 11:31 |
| seb128 | right | 11:31 |
| asac | seb128: thats great. (e.g. that they use launchpad) | 11:31 |
| seb128 | I mean if it doesn't work for you don't hesitate to open a bug | 11:31 |
| asac | do they look at ubuntu packages or only "tracker" tasks? | 11:32 |
| seb128 | the ubuntu package I think | 11:32 |
| asac | we really have to get crashes out of bug DB imo. if they are anonymized we can just open up and remove coredump after a month or so | 11:32 |
| seb128 | yeah | 11:33 |
| bryce | well, it's after 3:30 in the morning, I've been working on bugs since 9am. Wife says it's time to go to bed. | 11:33 |
| asac | bryce: sleep is for the weak ;) | 11:33 |
| seb128 | bryce: looks like a deserved to get sleep indeed ;-) | 11:33 |
| seb128 | *you* | 11:34 |
| pitti | bryce: ugh, still awake? | 11:34 |
| bryce | asac: I'll tell my wife that | 11:34 |
| seb128 | bryce: 'night | 11:34 |
| * pitti hugs bryce | 11:34 | |
| asac | bryce: the problem about huge bug batches is that every mail you send triggers about 3 replies ;) | 11:34 |
| asac | so if you sleep you will have a hard time to stay on top | 11:34 |
| bryce | pitti: sorry I didn't get to the patch you pointed out; it's in the queue though. Will get to it tomorrow. | 11:34 |
| asac | bryce: sleep well ;) | 11:34 |
| pitti | bryce: which patch? | 11:34 |
| bryce | um... *rummage* | 11:35 |
| pitti | bryce: btw, I'll update my PPA with the watermark fix again, it got shadowed by your ubuntu4 | 11:35 |
| pitti | I hope I'll get some more testing feedback soon | 11:35 |
| bryce | https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19304 | 11:35 |

| pitti | bryce: I updated the ubuntu bug and called for testing | 11:35 |
| bryce | ah ok great | 11:36 |
| pitti | bryce: I can handle that if you want me to | 11:36 |
| bryce | sure, that'd be a help | 11:36 |
| pitti | (have a test package in ppa) | 11:36 |
| pitti | bryce: sleep well! great work | 11:36 |
| * bryce --> Zzz | 11:36 | |
| chrisccoulson | hi asac, i haven't been working on tracker specifically, but I can dedicate some time to go through some of the old bug reports | 11:39 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: do you have access to crashes? | 11:40 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: i am mostly concerned about the crashes ... that they get opened up | 11:40 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: if you want i can give you a python script that removes CoreDump and open ups | 11:40 |
| chrisccoulson | tbh, a lot of the old crashers can probably be closed. the codebase has changed significantly between 0.6.6 and 0.6.90 and probably makes a lot of them obsolete | 11:40 |
| chrisccoulson | i can access the crashers, so i can probably go through some of them later | 11:40 |
| seb128 | we should autoclose all the < 0.6.90 crashers | 11:41 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: yeah thats true. crashers are usually only useless if done in a timely fashion ... but we should take care that that happens in future at least | 11:41 |
| seb128 | asking to try again in jaunty saying it has been rewritten | 11:41 |
| asac | s/only useless/only useful/ | 11:41 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, i think we should probably close the old crashers now too | 11:41 |
| seb128 | that's for tracker | 11:41 |
| chrisccoulson | i can maybe do some of that over my lunch break | 11:41 |
| seb128 | I think we should also autoclose all the apport-crash bugs reported before hardy and which didn't get an update since they have been opened too | 11:42 |

| mvo | seb128: when update-manager did its auto-launch dance, what gconf entry has "regular_auto_launch_interval" ? | 12:50 |
| * seb128 backs from lunch | 12:57 | |
| * seb128 hugs pitti | 12:57 | |
| seb128 | mvo: no idea I didn't snapshot the system, it's set to 7 right now | 12:57 |
| mvo | seb128: but its very likely that it was 7 then too, you did not change it in between | 13:02 |
| mvo | ? | 13:02 |
| seb128 | no I didn't change anything | 13:02 |

| seb128 | davidbarth: hi | 13:02 |
| seb128 | davidbarth: you forgot to push your notify-osd changes? | 13:02 |
| seb128 | mvo: ahah, got the bug again! | 13:03 |
| seb128 | mvo: I set the key to 0, used synaptic and | 13:03 |
| seb128 | (update-notifier:8262): update-DEBUG: is_package_system_locked: 0 | 13:03 |
| seb128 | (update-notifier:8262): update-DEBUG: interval_days from gconf: 0 | 13:03 |
| seb128 | (update-notifier:8262): update-DEBUG: update_apt_is_running: 0 | 13:03 |
| seb128 | that's "update-notifier --debug-updates" | 13:03 |
| mvo | seb128: by setting it to 0 this is expected, it will auto-launch every time something is there to update | 13:03 |
| seb128 | mvo: well should it run after each package installed in synaptic? | 13:04 |
| seb128 | mvo: I don't do an apt-get update or anything | 13:04 |
| seb128 | mvo: the situation was similar the other day, the value was 7 and I had 7 days of non updates | 13:04 |
| seb128 | mvo: it if I use synaptic 10 times today I will get update-manager auto opening 10 times | 13:05 |
| seb128 | re | 13:10 |
| seb128 | mvo: what debug flag should I be using? | 13:10 |
| mvo | seb128: --debug-updates --debug-inotify | 13:11 |
| seb128 | ok, so I run it, update-manager starts, I close it | 13:11 |
| seb128 | until there that's what I expect | 13:11 |
| seb128 | now I open synaptic because I want to update jockey | 13:11 |
| seb128 | I install jockey | 13:12 |
| seb128 | update-manager opens again | 13:12 |
| seb128 | is that expected? | 13:12 |
| mvo | seb128: that is with auto-open interval set to "0" ? then yes. in your 7 days case (yesterday) it should have noticed that dpkg was run and should not auto-open | 13:12 |
| seb128 | bah | 13:12 |
| seb128 | so that is not a good way to simulate the situation | 13:12 |
| seb128 | what does it compare the 7 days to? | 13:12 |
| * seb128 kicks bzr too, stupid thing | 13:13 | |
| seb128 | stop telling me to use bzr upgrade, I did it 15 times now | 13:13 |
| mvo | seb128: gconf timestamp when u-m was run, /var/log/dpkg.log /var/log/apt/term.log | 13:13 |
| mvo | mtime and ctime | 13:13 |
| mvo | whatever is newer | 13:13 |
| mvo | that is what puzzles me :/ | 13:14 |
| mvo | that it shuld not happen (but then, bugs never should) | 13:14 |
| seb128 | mvo: is there a way to change the ctime? | 13:31 |
| pitti | seb128: you want to change the ctime of a file? | 13:32 |
| seb128 | pitti: yes | 13:32 |
| seb128 | touch change the mtime and atime but not the ctime apparently | 13:32 |
| pitti | touch --time=ctime -r reference-file file | 13:32 |
| seb128 | what is reference-file? | 13:33 |
| pitti | a file which has the time you want to set "file" to | 13:33 |
| pitti | seb128: if you need an arbitrary time, I'd recomend python -c 'import os; os.utime()' | 13:34 |
| pitti | ah no, doens't change ctime | 13:34 |

| * pitti crosses another 4 bugs from ReleaseStatus | 14:03 | |
| kenvandine_wk | pitti: woot! | 14:09 |
| mvo | seb128: I just checked, the code that checks the dpkg and apt log stamps was added 1 march - if the update-notifier running was older than that, that would explain the launching you have seen. I just used a little python script to unset my gconf launch time and the mtimes of the logs, but I did not get the auto launch madness that you had, it correctly read the timestamps from the logs | 14:39 |
| seb128 | mvo: I've not been able to change the ctime to test, I might play with hwclock later | 14:40 |
| mvo | seb128: I hacked it to set ctime to a very old date iinside update-notifier (os.utime seems to just change mtime). but the effect should be the same | 14:43 |
| mvo | seb128: so no luck, sorry :( | 14:44 |
| seb128 | mvo: don't worry that's a small issue | 14:44 |
| seb128 | mvo: I'm sure I updated before going to London and I stopped the desktop the week I was not there | 14:45 |
| seb128 | so I was running the mar 1 version or never for sure | 14:45 |
| seb128 | I set it to 1 day now | 14:45 |
| seb128 | I will try again tomorrow | 14:45 |
| mvo | seb128: maybe you can set the --debug options in the autostart file? so that those are captured in any case? | 14:48 |
| seb128 | will do | 14:48 |
| mvo | thanks | 14:50 |
| seb128 | pitti: I updated notify-osd to 0.9.8, let me know if I screwed again the bzr ;-) | 14:55 |
| seb128 | pitti: the amd64 retracer crashed again on "KeyError: 'Stacktrace'", I removed the lock I think the retry worked yesterday without untagging | 14:57 |

| rickspencer3 | mpt: I will later | 15:31 |
| rickspencer3 | prolly in an hour or so | 15:32 |
| mpt | rickspencer3, ok, I'll ask again in an hour :-) | 15:32 |
| pitti | seb128: hm, since yesterday or today, gnome-panel hangs for me on every startup; I need to open a terminal and killall gnome-panel | 15:35 |
| pitti | is that known? | 15:36 |
| seb128 | no | 15:36 |
| seb128 | or there is a similar bug but no useful informations there | 15:36 |
| pitti | ok, I'll give it some more attention then | 15:37 |
| seb128 | get a stacktrace if possible | 15:37 |
| seb128 | the only change yesterday was a patch to better handle multiple monitor situations | 15:37 |
| pitti | or it's indicator-applet causing a hang or so | 15:39 |
| pitti | seb128: notify-osd> looks fine! I usually add the changelog when merging from trunk, not in the commit after, but that's just nitpicking | 15:44 |

| dobey | or is it supposed to return None always? | 16:08 |
| pitti | dobey: I don't think it makes sense to return something; you can save internal state in the command object, though | 16:16 |
| dobey | pitti: well i'm just wondering how to handle failures of things like pylint, pydoctor, unittest, trial test, etc... | 16:16 |

| seb128 | apt-cache rdepends library | 21:38 |
| seb128 | nothing breaks | 21:38 |

| dennda | Is the indicator applet introduced in Jaunty able to keep track of new mails in thunderbird? Looking at the source I wasn't that much enlighted | 22:18 |
| rickspencer3 | dennda: the applet is a container, any app can use it | 22:20 |
| rickspencer3 | I suspect that asac is working on tb integration, but I'm not 100% certain | 22:21 |
| dennda | rickspencer3: What must the app do? | 22:22 |
| rickspencer3 | dennda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotificationDevelopmentGuidelines | 22:22 |
| rickspencer3 | it's real simple | 22:22 |
| rickspencer3 | that link shows how to use notify-osd | 22:22 |
| rickspencer3 | let me see if I can get you a link on indicator-applet integration | 22:23 |
| dennda | well that's some change that needs to be hacked into thunderbird, correct? | 22:23 |
| asac | dennda: the idea is to make a generic indicator service in xulrunner that can be used by tbird or other xul mail/messaging apps | 22:24 |
| asac | thunderbird would then need some hacking to properly use that | 22:25 |
| dennda | Yeah | 22:25 |
| dennda | so something for 9.10 | 22:25 |
| asac | yes | 22:25 |
| dennda | or a 3rd party package | 22:25 |
| asac | definitly not before tbird 3 ;) | 22:25 |
| asac | upstream will probably not get that before 3.1; but if we have a good solution (or a good intermediate one), we want to pick that to tbird 3 | 22:26 |
| dennda | would be great... | 22:26 |
| dennda | because right now that indicator applet just displays pidgins messages, and that's kinda pointless | 22:26 |
| dennda | (and I can't use evolution) | 22:26 |
| rickspencer3 | dennda: there are a few other apps that use it as well, but missing tb is painful | 22:27 |
| asac | yes. the indicator framework came too late to migrate many apps on it. | 22:27 |
| rickspencer3 | lots of people prefer it as their mail client | 22:27 |
| asac | i would have loved to fix my preferred messenter | 22:27 |
| asac | too (gajim) | 22:27 |
| seb128 | and xchat-gnome | 22:27 |
| asac | ++ | 22:27 |
| Nafallo | GAJIM! | 22:27 |
| Nafallo | :-D | 22:27 |
| asac | Nafallo: cool. so we can work together on that ;) | 22:28 |
| asac | or at least poke upstream from two sides ;) | 22:28 |
| Nafallo | asac: they've been poked from a 3rd party, and are not interested :-( | 22:29 |
| dennda | if it's really that simple it shouldn't be to hard to hack it into gajim... | 22:29 |
| dennda | for the ubuntu package | 22:29 |
| asac | dennda: last time i looked we lacked python wrappers ;) | 22:30 |
| asac | so that would be the first step | 22:30 |
| dennda | ah | 22:30 |
| dennda | ok | 22:30 |
| dennda | you should have those anyways... | 22:30 |
| Nafallo | yeah. the applet didn't look very simple when I checked :-) | 22:30 |
| rickspencer3 | asac: kenvandine_wk and tedg created python wrapper for indicator-applet | 22:30 |
| rickspencer3 | it looked very very easy | 22:30 |
| Nafallo | oooh | 22:30 |
| Nafallo | hmmm | 22:30 |
| dobey | oh man | 22:30 |
| rickspencer3 | not sure where it is | 22:30 |
| asac | rickspencer3: creating them is easy enough | 22:31 |
| asac | we need them in the archive though | 22:31 |
| dobey | i wish i had time to write all the code that's in my head | 22:31 |
| asac | at best generated by indicator applet build or something | 22:31 |
| rickspencer3 | I was going to say, I thought it was headed for universe, but not sure what happened | 22:31 |
| asac | ok | 22:31 |
| rickspencer3 | dobey: keep in mind that both food and sleep can be replaced with coffee | 22:32 |
| asac | most likely fell off the radar due to overload ;) | 22:32 |
| rickspencer3 | kenvandine_wk: ^^^ ? | 22:32 |
| dobey | rickspencer3: not really for me. i'm pretty much immune to caffeine | 22:32 |
| rickspencer3 | or maybe the api wasn't "settled" enough | 22:32 |
| seb128 | as asac would say, "sleep is for the weaks" ;-) | 22:32 |
| dobey | i drew some awesome mock-ups the other day though | 22:33 |
| dobey | on paper anyway | 22:33 |
| dobey | need to make real mock-ups | 22:33 |
| asac | dobey: mockups about what? | 22:34 |
| asac | about all the code you have in your head ? ;) | 22:34 |
| dobey | asac: part of it. better contacts UI | 22:34 |
| dobey | buddy list/address book stuff | 22:35 |
| jcastro | asac: Nafallo: there's a gwibber branch already consuming the m-i python stuff if you want to look at that | 22:35 |
| asac | jcastro: is that m-i python stuff in universe? | 22:35 |
| jcastro | not sure, I think kenvandine_wk knows | 22:36 |
| jcastro | I don't think it is yet | 22:36 |
| asac | Nafallo: why do you think gajim folks dont want m-i support? last time i submitted a patch they were quite friendly and open to new ideas ;) | 22:36 |
| asac | which was years ago though | 22:36 |
| dobey | jcastro: does that branch have the AIR rewrite too? | 22:36 |
| jcastro | dobey: no that was april fools | 22:36 |
| dobey | yeah i know | 22:37 |
| Nafallo | ehrm | 22:37 |
| Nafallo | oh | 22:37 |
| Nafallo | wow | 22:37 |
| Nafallo | https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gajim/+bug/340213 | 22:37 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 340213 in gajim "[jaunty] Use indicator-applet for new messages" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 22:38 |
| Nafallo | asac: http://trac.gajim.org/ticket/4914 | 22:39 |
| asac | kenvandine_wk: in the gajim bug you say you submitted the patch upstream ... i dont see any patch there | 22:40 |
| asac | (nor in launchpad) | 22:40 |
| asac | or did you mean to say "Bug submitted upstream"? | 22:40 |
| Nafallo | asac: http://trac.gajim.org/attachment/ticket/4942/add-indicator-support.patch | 22:40 |
| asac | Nafallo: darn | 22:40 |
| asac | kenvandine_wk: nevermind | 22:40 |
| asac | i am officially web-site-blind | 22:41 |
| jcastro | 2 different tickets for some reason | 22:41 |
| asac | oh indeed. good catch | 22:41 |
| asac | that explains it | 22:41 |
| jcastro | I quite like gajim also | 22:43 |
| Nafallo | :-D | 22:44 |
| asac | its the best jabber client for sure | 22:44 |
| Nafallo | there is a reason I refuse to go away from it myself, and it's not only maintainership :-) | 22:44 |
| jcastro | it'd be nice if the look and feel were more gnomeish, like maybe a pidgin theme for it or something | 22:45 |
| asac | jcastro: which parts are not gnomish? | 22:46 |
| asac | status icons? | 22:46 |
| jcastro | yeah | 22:47 |
| Nafallo | jcastro: have you got "human" set still? ;-) | 22:47 |
| jcastro | yeah | 22:47 |
| jcastro | I guess it's mostly the status icons | 22:47 |
| Nafallo | jcastro: you can change those though... use the same as pidgin :-) | 22:47 |
| Nafallo | no. I mean gossip :-P | 22:48 |
| asac | seb128: can you poke firefox 3.5 through new ... its firefox-3.1 just that upstream bumped the version so we want to get that in before release (in order to being able to properly provide security updates) | 22:49 |
| asac | also thats universe | 22:50 |
| asac | we have the transition in -daily archive for a while. so its tested | 22:51 |
| seb128 | asac: done | 22:56 |
| asac | many thanks | 22:56 |
| asac | given that lp is down for a few hours we will do the binaries tomorrow i guess ;) | 22:56 |
| seb128 | asac: lp website down doesn't mean than soyuz and the datacenter are down | 22:57 |
| asac | yeah ;) | 22:57 |
| asac | but i cannot see if build has finished ;) | 22:58 |
| seb128 | but I will probably be in bed before having the binaries available | 22:58 |
| seb128 | I can as well get sleep if lp is down, can't triage bugs | 22:58 |
| asac | right. today sleeping is for the brave and honorous ... a sensible action actually ;) | 22:59 |
| seb128 | ;-) | 22:59 |
| chrisccoulson | asac - i've just finished the tracker merge. how did you recreate this bug you were speaking about earlier? i can test it on my box now | 23:00 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: create a directory on Desktop | 23:01 |
| asac | put a file in it | 23:01 |
| asac | go to tracker preferences and only select that folder | 23:01 |
| chrisccoulson | thanks. i'll try that | 23:01 |
| asac | after restarting and all that ... it will start to index | 23:01 |
| asac | observe what the tooltip says (it never made sense to me) | 23:01 |
| asac | also check that the tracker-indexer goes made and consumes all cycles forever ;) | 23:02 |
| asac | mad | 23:03 |
| chrisccoulson | "Done: 87 of 2233" | 23:04 |
| chrisccoulson | lol | 23:04 |
| asac | tracker notification could deserve a good icon | 23:04 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: see what i mean | 23:04 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: so i think removing all the caches helps a bit | 23:04 |
| asac | i did that but then i ended up with indexer going mad | 23:04 |
| chrisccoulson | i might give that a go | 23:05 |
| asac | and the tooltip doesnt make more sense | 23:05 |
| chrisccoulson | but my machine is becoming barely useable now | 23:05 |
| asac | it still indexes 425 files | 23:05 |
| asac | but never gets further than 25 files for me | 23:05 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: my main complaint is really that i can nowhere see what its currently indexing | 23:05 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, thats not very ideal | 23:06 |
| chrisccoulson | i don't really understand the tooltip at all. when you open the statistics window, it say something completely different | 23:06 |
| asac | its completely broken | 23:07 |
| asac | ;) | 23:07 |
| asac | thats my perception | 23:07 |
| asac | so two main issues: a) tracker indexes just indexes random things (doesnt honour pref); b) tracker-indexer seems to hang/loop on some files so it just consumes 100% of a core and never finishes | 23:08 |
| asac | unfortunately i dont know how to see which file its processing | 23:08 |
| asac | well i could i guess. but i didnt try to find out. | 23:09 |
| chrisccoulson | hmmmmm | 23:09 |
| chrisccoulson | i've just attached strace to tracker-indexer | 23:09 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: does your indexing show progress now? | 23:09 |
| asac | e.g. Done: 87 of 2233 | 23:09 |
| chrisccoulson | its up to 1067 | 23:10 |
| asac | are you at least at 88 now ;)? | 23:10 |
| asac | oh not bad | 23:10 |
| seb128 | you have a tracker-status tool no? | 23:10 |
| asac | for me its at 23 of 435 for minutes | 23:10 |
| asac | seb128: that isnt really verbose for me: | 23:10 |
| asac | tracker-status -d | 23:10 |
| asac | Tracker status is 'Indexing' | 23:10 |
| asac | ;) | 23:10 |
| asac | -d == --detailed | 23:11 |
| chrisccoulson | ewww | 23:11 |
| chrisccoulson | it's spewing loads of stuff to a log file | 23:11 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: where? | 23:11 |
| chrisccoulson | i can see a timestamp being written over and over again in strace | 23:12 |
| chrisccoulson | the file is ~/..local/share/tracker/tracker-indexer.log | 23:12 |
| asac | ouch | 23:12 |
| asac | so most likely that doesnt exist at all ;) | 23:12 |
| chrisccoulson | the file is up to 4.9MB after a couple of minutes | 23:13 |
| asac | so its looping trying to flush a log queue or something ;) | 23:13 |
| chrisccoulson | probably | 23:13 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: err ... where do you have that file | 23:13 |
| chrisccoulson | looking at the strace, it doesn't seem to be touching much else | 23:13 |
| asac | i dont have ~/../local ;) | 23:14 |
| chrisccoulson | oops | 23:14 |
| chrisccoulson | ~/.local | 23:14 |
| chrisccoulson | my bad | 23:14 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: ok so its obvious | 23:14 |
| asac | i get "02 Apr 2009, 00:14:56: Tracker-Warning **: Could not store word 'jederzeit': with fatal error" | 23:14 |
| asac | so it definitly has problems with the output file or something | 23:14 |
| asac | and retries deliberately forever | 23:15 |
| chrisccoulson | thats what i see | 23:15 |
| chrisccoulson | the strace only shows this, looping over and over again: http://pastebin.com/m53730230 | 23:15 |
| chrisccoulson | i haven't seen it do anything else, yet tracker-indexer is *supposedly* indexing and using a lot of CPU bandwidth too ;) | 23:15 |
| chrisccoulson | maybe there's a build option to stop it doing that | 23:16 |
| asac | err tracker_db_index_manager functions | 23:17 |
| asac | seem not to be defined in the source | 23:17 |
| asac | is that a separate package? | 23:17 |
| asac | found it | 23:17 |
| asac | blind me | 23:17 |
| asac | what is g_get_user_cache_dir ? | 23:19 |
| chrisccoulson | that's a glib function | 23:19 |
| chrisccoulson | it should return ~/.cache | 23:19 |
| asac | documentation says xdg dir | 23:20 |
| asac | i dont see anything like that in /etc/xdg | 23:20 |
| chrisccoulson | "Returns a base directory in which to store non-essential, cached data specific to particular user" | 23:21 |
| asac | i can read ;) | 23:21 |
| chrisccoulson | ;) | 23:21 |
| chrisccoulson | that should be ~/.cache according to the XDG spec, i think | 23:21 |
| asac | hmm | 23:21 |
| asac | yeah | 23:22 |
| asac | lets check if glib implements that | 23:22 |
| seb128 | asac: http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html | 23:23 |
| seb128 | asac: that's xdg's dir's spec | 23:23 |
| asac | so glib implements this correctly | 23:23 |
| asac | seb128: i know ;) | 23:23 |
| asac | i was just curious why i couldnt get it with xdg-user-dirs command | 23:23 |
| seb128 | yes glib implement that spec correctly ;-) | 23:23 |
| asac | but glib does the right thing | 23:23 |
| seb128 | xdg-user-dirs is to make localized folder for images, videos, etc | 23:24 |
| seb128 | ie for user visible directories | 23:24 |
| asac | i would have hoped that they implement all dirs ;) | 23:24 |
| asac | but well | 23:24 |
| seb128 | so your cache would change when you change locale? | 23:24 |
| seb128 | or your config? | 23:24 |
| seb128 | that would be weird | 23:24 |
| seb128 | what is the point of translating an implement detail | 23:25 |
| asac | seb128: why does it need to be translated? | 23:25 |
| seb128 | that would make it bug prone | 23:25 |
| asac | if thats the purpose of xdg-user-dirs i would hav enamed it xdg-l10n-dirs ;) | 23:25 |
| seb128 | well you are the one saying all dirs should be in xdg-user-dirs | 23:25 |
| seb128 | asac: it also let you customize the dirs to use for those | 23:25 |
| seb128 | but again customize the .local or .cache naming would only make it less robust | 23:26 |
| asac | ok. so there is a difference for user dirs | 23:26 |
| asac | i see | 23:26 |
| seb128 | for not real win | 23:26 |
| asac | i wante xdg-base-dirs then ;) | 23:26 |
| asac | nevermind | 23:26 |
| seb128 | yeah gotcha | 23:26 |
| dobey | well | 23:26 |
| seb128 | we don't have that, read the spec ;-) | 23:26 |
| dobey | the xdg user dirs customization crack is supposed to allow for translating | 23:26 |
| asac | command line wrappers for xdg arent that bad imo | 23:26 |
| dobey | but eh, i don't think anyone actually takes the time to mess with that | 23:27 |
| asac | dobey: yeah. got that now | 23:27 |
| asac | not sure if having translated physical dirnames is really the way to go. i would think that apps like nautilus could provide a translated presentation ;) | 23:27 |
| asac | but if xdg thinks so, its fine. | 23:28 |
| asac | i assume that discussion was done before | 23:28 |
| dobey | i think it's rather pointless | 23:28 |
| dobey | i'd rather have it done in some way via a tag on the directory | 23:28 |
| dobey | like "this is my music dir" or "this is my porn dir" | 23:29 |
| seb128 | asac: yeah, that has been discussed for over a year and both way had pro and con | 23:29 |
| seb128 | asac: the "translate in the UI" would mean than any applications no using the glib api would see the english names | 23:29 |
| asac | well. atm all apps have to use xdg anyway. they could do the same for translating | 23:30 |
| seb128 | well not really | 23:30 |
| seb128 | you can browse the filesystem using any application | 23:30 |
| seb128 | and the "Desktop" directory there will be the same name as in your UI | 23:30 |
| dobey | bash doesn't really deal well with translating directory names in the ui :) | 23:31 |
| seb128 | you need to use the xdg functions if you want to know "what is the default video directory" for example | 23:31 |
| seb128 | anyway it has been discussed for a long time | 23:31 |
| seb128 | and they decided on this way | 23:31 |
| dobey | yes it has | 23:31 |
| asac | yeah. | 23:31 |
| asac | i think all this is pointless until we discuss tags and DB style file storage | 23:32 |
| asac | if that ever happens is of course in the limbo ;) | 23:32 |
| asac | good old trees probably wont go away for some time | 23:32 |
| asac | ok i will remove tracker for now again | 23:38 |
| asac | hope chrisccoulson finds out why the db cannot be written to | 23:38 |
| chrisccoulson | i'm wondering if this is something to with the fact that we build against sqlite | 23:38 |
| chrisccoulson | and debian don't | 23:38 |
| chrisccoulson | i might try the debian build and see if that does the same | 23:38 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: would be an option | 23:39 |
| asac | what does tracker do if its not using sqlite? | 23:39 |
| chrisccoulson | it uses qdbm i think | 23:39 |
| seb128 | open an upstream bug | 23:40 |
| chrisccoulson | i'll try it with the default backend first | 23:40 |
| chrisccoulson | just to see | 23:41 |
| seb128 | right | 23:41 |
| dobey | Depends: libsqlite3-0 | 23:41 |
| dobey | well it depends on it anyway :) | 23:41 |
| asac | dobey: thats auto generated | 23:41 |
| asac | so if we dont use it, it wont be there | 23:41 |
| asac | or is that on debian? | 23:41 |
| chrisccoulson | dobey - that's right. we pass a build option to make it build against sqlite for ubuntu | 23:41 |
| chrisccoulson | but this is not the default, and not what debian use | 23:41 |
| dobey | asac: no, why would i use debian? this is jaunty :) | 23:41 |
| dobey | chrisccoulson: ah ok | 23:42 |
| chrisccoulson | i shall have to try that tomorrow - it's getting late now | 23:42 |
| chrisccoulson | anyone know what dpput and dpget do? | 23:43 |
| chrisccoulson | on google, i only find references to qdbm | 23:43 |
| seb128 | no | 23:46 |
| chrisccoulson | i'm going to build tracker against qdbm now. i'm starting to suspect that it's support for sqlite is broken | 23:47 |
| seb128 | good that we don't install tracker by default in jaunty ;-) | 23:48 |
| chrisccoulson | it is | 23:48 |
| chrisccoulson | if the sqlite support is broken, then we have a dilemma | 23:48 |
| chrisccoulson | qdbm is in universe;) | 23:49 |
| seb128 | yeah | 23:50 |
| seb128 | but as said upstream seems to want to get the new version work on jaunty | 23:50 |
| seb128 | so they might look quickly at the issue if somebody opens a bug | 23:50 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: can you please file it? | 23:50 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, i'll do that. | 23:51 |
| asac | chrisccoulson: i think the info about the indexer warnings in log should be a good pointer for them | 23:51 |
| asac | thanks | 23:51 |
| seb128 | ok time to sleep now | 23:53 |
| seb128 | have a good night everybody | 23:53 |
| seb128 | see you tomorrow | 23:53 |
