apacheloggertalking about testing00:00
apacheloggerwhat kind of tests can be conducted in which ways?00:00
a|wen_isn't it mostly "doing your normal work, and see that everything is still okay" testing00:01
apacheloggerlow quality that is00:02
apacheloggerI am talking automated major QA tasks her00:02
apacheloggere00:02
apacheloggeras one of the most important use case of our all fancy server00:02
a|wen_ahh, you switched to generic context here00:03
a|wen_JontheEchidna: btw, we need to agree on an LP tag for any 4.2.3 regressions arriving in LP so we can keep track of them?00:04
JontheEchidnakde4.2.3?00:04
a|wen_jup00:04
JontheEchidnaok, it's settled then00:04
a|wen_easy :)00:05
a|wen_apachelogger: do we have any tools for doing any automatic testing on anything but back-end stuff?00:06
Riddellyay, new kdelibs is 4.2.3!00:07
apacheloggera|wen_: we don't00:08
* Sput thought we were at 4.2.8500:08
apacheloggerthat is why I need input on what kind of test we want to do and which order to implement them00:08
Sputbut then again, my blood is edging a lot00:08
RiddellSput: let's not get too ahead of ourselves00:08
apacheloggerobviusly we could do automated lintian runs, but that is not of much use most of the time ;-)00:08
SputRiddell: :)00:09
Riddellcan't be too hard to compare the kde-l10n-xx input with the language-pack output00:09
a|wen_i think Riddell has a point there00:09
apacheloggerRiddell: I am quite sure it is00:10
apacheloggerwe'd need to parse the pos00:10
apacheloggerbecause what rosetta spits out is completely differently order and/or formatted than what we stuff in00:10
apacheloggerRiddell: also it would spit out false positives, where we altered a string via a patch, so we would need an interface to mark those common false positives for ignoring00:12
Riddellformat is much the same, it's all .po files00:12
Riddelland some scripting shouldn't be hard to order it the same00:12
Riddellit doesn't have to be automatic, just something we could run manually would be fine00:13
apacheloggeryeah00:13
apacheloggeragreed00:13
apacheloggeruhhh00:16
apacheloggerRiddell: doesn't the lang-pack include the .pos as sorted within rosetta?00:16
apacheloggerif so that adds an additional problem as we would have to glue them back together before being able to compare input and output00:17
Riddellhow do you mean sorted?00:22
RiddellJontheEchidna: hows the new kde4libs working for you?00:22
JontheEchidnajust finished upgrading00:23
JontheEchidna4.2.3 :)00:23
JontheEchidnaI'd say it's working fine00:24
apacheloggerRiddell: nevermind, I am doing weird talk again00:24
a|wen_JontheEchidna: you're copying it?00:24
* Riddell already copied it00:24
a|wen_ahh :)00:25
a|wen_yay! 4.2.3 ready00:25
Riddellgood to announce on kubuntu.org?00:26
a|wen_we can at least start preparing the announcement00:26
=== JontheEchidna changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: You are beautiful! | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuKarmicSpecs | Sync/Merges: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KarmicKDEMerges http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/multidistrotools/kubuntu-desktop.html
a|wen_Riddell: do we have some version-magic in pkg-kde-tools checking that it is an ubuntu version and installing docs to kde instead of kde4?00:28
apacheloggera|wen_: no, we just always compile with kde but have symlink magic in kdelibs to ensure that debian packages which use kde4 in their install can be synced without breaking00:30
apacheloggerthat is the theory at least00:31
a|wen_well ... but what about .install files?00:31
* JontheEchidna tests his konversation merge packages, brb00:31
a|wen_we compile to kde; and they pull from kde4 ... that is going to go horribly wrong00:32
* apachelogger is too tired to think about that :P00:32
apacheloggeroh, neato amarok-nightly-kdebase was uploaded00:32
JontheEchidnahmm, I guess this means that they work00:33
* a|wen_ goes to bed while a new shiny 4.2.3 is getting downloaded and installed ... 'night all00:34
* apachelogger throws a good night cookie at a|wen_00:35
JontheEchidnaah, that's more like it00:35
JontheEchidnaI guess the old one was still cached in memory00:35
JontheEchidnaSo Debian patched their konvi to put the package version in the about dialog00:37
JontheEchidnahttp://imagebin.ca/view/KcSogKE.html00:38
Riddellapachelogger: once kdelibs gets compiled there will be a symlink from kde4 so docs can be installed to either00:41
apacheloggerbut00:42
apacheloggerRiddell: if the .mk file set the docpath to kde make install will push them there and the .installs will not be able to find them if they list kde400:43
Riddelloh good point00:52
Riddellmaybe changing the install path isn't such a good idea01:03
Riddellwe'll see I suppose01:04
apacheloggerRiddell: we can always do some magic version checking01:19
apacheloggerif contains "ubuntu" use kde, else kde401:19
Riddellmm, could try that01:20
nixternalanyone else have really big fonts in a default konqi?01:34
nixternalthe stupid font size is killing the docs01:34
nixternalsame with khc01:36
nixternalgrrrr, KHC and Konqi render pages differently...this is really starting to get annoying01:37
Riddellhttp://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.2.301:37
JontheEchidnahum02:23
JontheEchidnamarble_part.desktop was in kdeedu-data02:23
JontheEchidnaI wonder if that's why marble_part users were all crashy without it...02:24
JontheEchidnaalso kdeedu is far from merged in bzr...02:28
Guest63986hi/2all02:36
Guest63986apachelogger: are you there?02:36
Guest63986hi JontheEchidna02:37
* JontheEchidna wonders who the guest is02:38
Guest63986ah, john, its me groo02:39
Guest63986JontheEchidna: did you guys do an update to qt 4.5 this week?02:40
JontheEchidnafor karmic, yea02:40
Guest63986no, for jaunty also.. an update to the 4.5 package02:40
JontheEchidnaoh, yeah. It's in jaunty-proposed right now02:40
JontheEchidnafixes the corrupted fonts issue02:40
Guest63986well and it breaks the webkit javascript!02:40
Guest63986with one stroke you guys broke both rekonq and arora02:41
Guest63986seg faults all over the place02:41
JontheEchidnagot an example where? It works fine here02:41
Guest63986open arora 6 or 6.1, go to mail.google.. crash.. same thing reknoq.. any page with javascript02:42
JontheEchidnachecking my mail with arora, everything's fine02:42
JontheEchidnaplus I didn't touch webkit in the update02:42
Guest63986im using default kubuntu and arora from repo... crashes.. before the qt update it didnt02:43
Guest63986could it be the fonts patch?02:43
JontheEchidnadunno02:44
JontheEchidnagot a backtrace of any of the crashes?02:44
JontheEchidnaalso could you pastebin ~/.fonts.conf please?02:45
Guest63986arora doesnt have a degug02:45
Guest63986i dont have a fonts.conf02:45
Guest63986.fonts.conf i mean02:46
JontheEchidnaall I need is the qtwebkit potion of the backtrace02:46
JontheEchidnaor, the Qt portion rather02:46
JontheEchidnaDo you know then what hinting method your fonts are using?02:46
Guest63986theres no backtrace, it just segfaults, dr konki doesnt pick it up02:46
Guest63986sure, just a sec02:47
tsimpsontry starting it with gdb02:47
JontheEchidnait wouldn't, arora isn't a KDE app02:47
JontheEchidnayeah, use gdb02:47
Guest63986how do i heck the hinting method?02:48
Guest63986and how do i run arora or rekonq with gdb?02:48
JontheEchidnado you use gnome or kde?02:48
JontheEchidnaand were fonts broken before the update?02:48
=== freeflyi1g is now known as freeflying
JontheEchidnahttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/Backtrace has a nice gdb guide02:49
Guest63986i use kde02:49
Guest63986by fonts broken you mean?02:49
Guest63986too small or not at all?02:50
JontheEchidnayou would know what I mean if you had seen them02:50
Guest63986then no02:50
JontheEchidnayou probably aren't using the affected hinting method02:50
Guest63986probably02:50
JontheEchidnaso I don't think the patch in related at all02:50
Guest63986well i can asure you the only change before the crashes was the qt one02:50
JontheEchidnawhat's the output of apt-cache policy arora?02:51
Guest63986        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com jaunty-backports/universe Packages02:52
Guest63986and universe02:52
JontheEchidnahmm02:53
JontheEchidnaanyways, the backtrace may help02:53
tsimpsonthe -backports version hit a couple days ago according to the changelog02:54
JontheEchidnawhat's the output of apt-cache policy libqt4-webkit?02:54
Guest63986proposed and main02:55
JontheEchidnaso you have 4.5.0-0ubuntu4.1 installed?02:55
JontheEchidna(just making sure there isn't a version mismatch going on here)02:56
Guest63986arora dont have debugging symbols02:58
Guest63986just segfaults02:58
Guest63986yes02:58
Guest63986just runned gdb using the wiki above.. no debugging symbols02:59
JontheEchidnacould you paste the backtrace anyway? As long as libqt4-dbg is installed I should be able to see the Qt portion of it02:59
Guest63986ah, i dont have libqt4-dbg installed :D03:01
Guest63986installing03:02
Guest63986no one else reported this problem?03:02
Guest63986btw, if you have webkitpart it will creash it also03:03
Guest63986all qtwebkit based is broken03:03
JontheEchidnanot as far as I can tell03:05
Guest63986btw if you have rekonq.. if i disable javasript support in the new 0.10 it wont crash which kinda confirms my suspition that the problem is the javascript support in qtwebkit03:06
Guest63986confirmed.. javascript disabled it works, as soon as i enable javascript it crashes03:08

JontheEchidnaah, that bug03:16
tsimpsonfreeflying: wait, waht package re you looking t?03:16
freeflyingtsimpson: kdelibs03:16
JontheEchidnaGuest63986: you are suffering from bug 334102, which was reported before the upgrade03:17

JontheEchidnaat least it's not a regression :) But on the other hand, it sucks to be you/qtwebkit on your machine :(03:17
Guest63986JontheEchidna: why just me?03:18
Guest63986and why it was working before?03:18
JontheEchidnait seems like 5 other people reported it03:18
JontheEchidnadunno why it only happened for you just now03:19
tsimpsonfreeflying: yeah, it's still there03:19
freeflyingtsimpson: this patch is quite dirty, recommend drop it03:20
tsimpsonfreeflying: file a bug (and in debian)03:20
nixternalfigured out the stupid khtml crap it seems...just place an image into a block display and rock on with your bad self03:21
Guest63986is there any qt4.5.1 in a ppa or something like that?03:21
freeflyingtsimpson: it can't be named as a bug :)03:21
tsimpsonfreeflying: why not?03:22
JontheEchidnaGuest63986: https://edge.launchpad.net/~alessandro-ghersi/+archive/ppa03:22
Guest63986jon, is this qt 4.5.1 safe, i mean, no regression with kde 4.2.3?03:23
freeflyingtsimpson: this patch only focus on those user use latin language, this setting is very ugely for CJK users, especially he is using 9 size font03:23
tsimpsoneek, ctiVMThrowTrampoline is assembly03:23
tsimpsonfreeflying: so it's a bug03:23
JontheEchidnaGuest63986: I haven't tested it personally, but it should be fairly ok I think03:23
freeflyingtsimpson: its a mistake :)03:23
tsimpsonfreeflying: ugly fonts by default is a bug03:24
JontheEchidnaGuest63986: I believe all known regressions are patched in his build03:24
Guest63986yeah, i use latin language03:24
tsimpsonbug in this respect is any misfeature/packaging issue03:24
JontheEchidnaScottK: apparently Qt 4.5.1 fixes the load of corruption issues on Intel03:26
JontheEchidnaI think all the major regressions have been worked out too, so would you be against a backport of Qt 4.5.1?03:26
Guest63986upgrading now..03:26
Guest63986btw will 4.5.1 be backported to jaunty?03:27
Guest63986:D03:27
JontheEchidnaunder discussion, as you can see above ;-)03:27
Guest63986btw how about office 3.1? im using a ppa but it doesnt have kde support only gtk03:27
JontheEchidnawe don't really do office here, that'd probably be best asked in #ubuntu or #ubuntu-devel03:28
Guest63986dont you guys do the kde support?03:28
JontheEchidnathe openoffice dudes take care of that03:29
tsimpsonor should03:29
Guest63986anyway the only major bug in kubuntu in jaunty is the one i bitched about over and over, plasma network isnt upt to the task yet, should have been disabled and used nm-applet instead03:29
Guest63986ah ok, gonna wait then, or maybe do my own package for kde support if they dont03:30
tsimpsonwe can't use nm-applet03:30
JontheEchidnathe thing about nm-applet is that it brings in gtk, which we don't have room for :(03:30
Guest63986it only used a few gtk libs, and we could have used policyqt/kde03:30
Guest63986well fedora 11 brings kde 4.2.2 and it uses nm-applet, but i believe they left openoffice out, and included koffice 2.0 rc103:31
JontheEchidnaouch, koffice isn't an open office replacement by far03:31
tsimpsonif we got rid of oo.o, we'd probably have half the CD free03:31
JontheEchidnatrue03:31
JontheEchidnaif fedora was more popular, they'd get bitched at about not including OO.o by default03:32
Guest63986JontheEchidna: yeah i know im a koffice fan, but 2.0 is like kde 4.0.. a milestone not a replacement03:32
JontheEchidnaoh yeah, it will definitely get better03:32
JontheEchidnaand I really hope it does03:32
JontheEchidnaI just feel that it's a bad idea to include it by default like fedora is doing03:33
Guest63986JontheEchidna: it will, those guys rock.. its already very usable, but like i said.. its a 2.0 release.. big port, bit rewrite, lots of new technology and concepts.. gonna shine in 2.2 probably03:33
Guest63986JontheEchidna: they probably traded space for quality03:34
JontheEchidnawe did too, but with networkmanager I suppose03:34
Guest63986JontheEchidna: what do you use first? network or office?\03:34
JontheEchidnawe suck in different manners ;-)03:34
Guest63986what pisses you most?03:34
JontheEchidnaneither personally03:35
Guest63986not being able to download anything, or a milestone office?03:35
JontheEchidnaI have a DHCP wired connection and only ever use word processing03:35
Guest63986i just defend it was a bad call03:35
Guest63986for end users anyway.. i try to show kubuntu to everyone but with this one i had to bring a ubuntu cd and then install kubuntu-desktop03:36
Guest63986because i knew it would break03:36
tsimpsonworks out-of-the-box here03:36
tsimpsonthough I almost never ever use oo.o03:36
Guest63986tsimpson: it works with a few use cases.. like wpa, a few wpa2, or simple wep... but a lot of cases are broken which works with nm-applet03:37
tsimpsonI could write a paragraph in kate by the time it loads up03:37
Guest63986tsimpson: same here, thats my point exactly.. network everyone uses... oo not so much03:37
tsimpsonbut we can't get rid of oo.o03:38
tsimpsonkoffice is just not good enough right now03:38
tsimpson< rock that way | kubuntu here | hard place that way >03:38
Guest63986well the harm is done... 9.10 will have 4.3 and the network applet should be better by then03:38
JontheEchidnanow I have that scene from the simpsons move stuck in my head03:40
JontheEchidna*movie03:40
Guest63986ok qt 4.5.1 fixed the bug03:41
Guest63986no more segfaukts03:41

macofreeflying: ping?03:58
freeflyingmaco: ?03:58
macoi'm having issues with kde/qt apps sometimes not taking keyboard input (not the whole apps either, sometimes it'll just be a compose window in kontact while the main window still recognizes the kbd)03:59
macoit has been suggested that scim could be at fault since i have it running at all times04:00
macoand Riddell & persia both suggested that you might have some ideas04:00
freeflyingmaco: focus issue?04:00
macomaybe? if i change windows over and over a bunch sometimes the window will start taking kbd input again. it'll be like i can see the cursor in the text box and that window is in focus as far as the wm is concerned, but when i type, nothing happens04:01
freeflyingmaco: sometime it can't remmeber the foucs, I suppose04:02
freeflyingfocus status04:02
macoit only happens on kde/qt apps. gwibber/pidgin/firefox/terminator are fine04:02

macook sure. where can i find it?04:04
freeflyingmaco: will be uploaded to debian sid04:04

Quintasan1eagles0513875: pong06:52
eagles0513875Quintasan1: think the new snap shot of kvirc is ready to go i havent had any issues with it and the thing that was missing in the version taht comes in jaunty repos the themes works06:52
Quintasan1so I need to poke Riddel06:53
Quintasan1also report a bug06:53
eagles0513875bug about what06:53
Quintasan1for adding new kvirc to updates06:53
Quintasan1first of all it needs testing06:54
Quintasan1I don't rembember the whole process but tsimpson said we need to fill a bug report for putting it into updates06:54
Quintasan1I will disscuss things when I'm back from school, ok?06:55
tsimpsonfor -updates you'll need an SRU06:55

a|wenRiddell: the pkg-kde-tools changing doc-path build-time from kde4 to kde is going to bite us ... if I didn't if I didn't merge kile, but it was done as a sync, we would have had a ftbfs06:56
ScottKJontheEchidna: I'd say lets' put 4.5.1 in kubuntu-experimental on Jaunty and give people a chance to try it out.06:56
a|wenScottK: +1 on that06:56
Quintasan1eagles0513875: looks like we need to request a backport rather than update, new version doesn't fix crictial bugs :P06:57
tsimpsonyou'd be better off asking to get it in kubuntu-experimental for now06:58
tsimpsonquicker anyway06:58
tsimpsonooh, all the PPA buildd's are back too06:59
Quintasan1ok, anyways I need to go to school today, so I'm off for few hours06:59
eagles0513875same here07:02
eagles0513875tsimpson: its already in there but i think whats out in jaunty repos is rather outdated07:03
a|wentsimpson: the PPA builders have been coming and going at will ... so don't be to sure about them07:04
a|weneagles0513875: of course it's outdated as we07:04
a|wen're after a release now07:04
tsimpsona|wen: I was told they were redirected to building jaunty stuff, not sure07:05
eagles0513875ok Quintasan1 already put it in kubuntu-experimental trying to see if its possible to get push out as an update07:05
