nixternalhey, is there an issue with PyKDE4 right now?00:46
nixternalheh, update pyqt4 and now it just segfaults :/00:53
JontheEchidnaI'd guess that python-kde4 would need a rebuild, but we aren't building that for now01:00
nixternalwhy is that?01:01
nixternali noticed they are all dep-wait in the builders right now01:02
JontheEchidnaoh, looks like we are01:02
JontheEchidnawe couldn't get them to build at first, but Riddell gave them a nice whack it seems01:02

javihi, I'm using the kubuntu-ppa and today a lot of updates for kde showed up with 4.2.90 versions. Is this some kind of beta release from 4.3?08:44
javithis comes along a lot more upgrades to 4.2.4 versions08:47
DaskreeCHwhich ppa?09:03
DaskreeCHBut if it says 4.2.90 then yes that's KDE 4.309:04
javilaunchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/ppa/ubuntu jaunty09:05
javithe fact is that 4.2.9 versions are for kdegames-mahjongg-data, system-config-printer-kde, kdebase-runtime-data-common, kdegames-card-data & kdepimlibs-data09:06
javiall other packages shows available updates to 4.2.4 versions09:06
javithat's why i'm asking, maybe there is some problem with the numeration09:07
sebasjavi: you're mixing 4.2.4 with 4.3 beta2, good luck ;)09:39
sebasSeriously, remove on or the other, you might run into problems otherwise09:39
Nightrosecurrent updates want to remove kdebase and kdebase-bin09:44
Nightrosethat sounds not so good to me09:44
NightroseRiddell: ^09:44
NightroseJontheEchidna: ^09:45
sebasI'm using the 4.3 beta archive, and that one seems fine09:46
Nightrosei don't have that here09:46
Nightroseyea it wants to install 4.2.90 from the ppa09:50
Nightrosei am sure i don't have any ppa's enabled that should give me beta updates of 4.309:51
NightroseScottK: ^ can you look into this?09:51

apacheloggerlike I would care about them darn retracing :P09:52
apacheloggerNightrose: what kind of beta?09:53
Nightrosekde 4.2.9009:53
Nightroseit currently wants to uninstall kdebase here09:53
Nightroseand all kinds of other scary stuff09:53

Nightroseit's still beta09:56
apacheloggerbecause the copy is b0rked09:56
Nightrosemeh09:56
apacheloggerbecause someone should not have copied it09:56
apacheloggerbbecause KDE is rather slow in development coz otherwise it was stable already :P09:57
Nightrosewho is allesandro ghersi?09:57
Nightrosethis is pretty bad09:57
Nightrosereally09:57
Nightrosepeople added that ppa all over the place to get amarok 2.109:57
Riddellit failed to compile is why09:58

apacheloggerno telling that lex did break it :P09:59
Nightrosehe copied it ;-)10:00

RiddellI copied it10:00
Riddellit needs qedje, copying that too10:00
Nightroseah10:00
Nightroselex79: sorry10:00
* Nightrose missread launchpad10:00
apacheloggerNightrose: I told you :P10:00
apacheloggerthough I think that is a bug in soyuz ... it's ppa interface should show who copied something, makes blaming easier :D10:01
apacheloggerRiddell: did you copy by accident , or do you have some master plan on how to make 4.3 more stable in less time? :D10:02
Riddellapachelogger: it's backports, it's not guaranteed to be super stable10:03
apacheloggerRiddell: no no, 4.3.0 would be backports10:04
Nightrosei think so to10:04
apachelogger4.2.x => updates, 4.3 pre-release => experimental, 4.3.x => backports10:04
apacheloggerat least that was the destinationflow for intrepid *shrug*10:04
Riddellexperimental has stuff like a new Qt in it and other experimental bits, you can't transition from experimental to backports once the 4.3 final is out10:05
apacheloggerRiddell: it needs to be rebuilt10:06
apacheloggertechnically it needs to be rebuilt between each ppa move anyway10:07
Riddell?  it's being rebuilt10:07
apacheloggera) rebuilding should happen in the staging PPA10:08
apacheloggerb) it should not be moved to backports until 4.3.010:08
apacheloggeranything should be built within staging IMHO, that way KDE in experimental would not depend on Qt 4.5.1 which would make the users life a lot easier10:09
Riddellmm, but experimental isn't a good place for it, it has other experimental bits in it10:09
apacheloggerRiddell: well, you could apply the same reason to get amarok into the updates ppa10:10
apacheloggerbecause now pre-4.3 is in backports which is of considerable more experimental stage than amarok 2.1 :D10:10
apacheloggerRiddell: the whole problem is what I reported as bug 37319710:11

LureRiddell: why is kde 4.3 beta in backports? I would expect backports only for stable releases and experiemental for prereleases...12:57
* Lure also thinks that having <release>-backports and ppa/backports makes it confusing12:58
LureRiddell: after reading backlog from apachelogger: I agree with him, we should have clear separation between released and prerelease stuff13:02
LureRiddell: people enabling backports ppa to get kde 4.2.4 are not expecting beta updates13:03
LureRiddell: however I agree with you that experimental should be considered "will eat you babies"13:03
Tonio_Riddell: as debuid works and pbuilder fails13:05
LureRiddell: btw, can we use <release>-backports for 4.2.x updates? then renaming "ppa/backports" to "ppa/prerelease" would be the way to go13:05

seeleis there a blueprint on kubuntu mid? i have no idea what the goals are15:40
JontheEchidnargreening: so how do I install usb-creator from bzr?\15:41
rgreeningJontheEchidna: if you mean the -kde bit, it's not integrated into the dbian package (started but not completed). to run it form the local dir, do the following:15:42
rgreeningJontheEchidna: cp ./bin/usb-creator-kde . && cp ./gui/usbcreator.ui . && ./usb-creator-kde15:43
rgreeningdo this in the bzr dir15:43
JontheEchidnacrash, I suppose I have the usb stick crash?15:44
* JontheEchidna has a few things in his usb ports15:45
JontheEchidnaoh, this could be the pyqt4 crash that everybody's getting in karmic15:49
rgreeningJontheEchidna: I'm in jaunty15:50
JontheEchidnabut software-properties works15:50
JontheEchidnaso my crash probably isn't the karmic pyqt crash15:50
rgreeningJontheEchidna: if you comment out the gobject timeout_add section, it doesn't crash.15:50
rgreeningso, some interaction with gobject, DbusGMainLoop and qt with it's own main/threads is likely the issue...15:51
rgreeningthough I can't figure it out...15:51
JontheEchidnathere is a Qt DbusMainLoop you could try15:51
JontheEchidnaoh, but is this a backend running in a separate thread?15:52
JontheEchidnaouch15:52
rgreeningyep15:54
rgreeningso, my choices are figure out how to make it work. fork a copy of the backend, or write a wrapper class and split out the gtk/glib/gobject and qt bits into the wrapper(s) and load them depending on the fe used.15:56
JontheEchidnajockey uses a DBusGMainLoop too15:57
JontheEchidnawoner what its doing15:57
rgreeningJontheEchidna: If you can figure this out, it would be a great gift :)15:59
rgreeningand my birthday is just around the corner :)16:00
JontheEchidnait looks like jockey has an abstracted UI class that does dbus for either backend16:04
JontheEchidnaand the jockey-kde frontend implements a graphical representation of several UI backend functions16:05
JontheEchidnaand therefore doesn't have to do any dbusy-ness itself16:05
JontheEchidnabackend -> AbstractUI -> DE-specific UI16:05
JontheEchidnato restate this after I have collected my thoughts... the abstract UI talks to the backend and gives the kde and gtk uis the strings and stuff with which to populate the GUI16:07
JontheEchidnathis would mean major changes to the gtk side of things16:09
rgreeningJontheEchidna: all the dbus, glib, gobject stuff is currently in the backend.py16:16
JontheEchidnabut the frontend tries to communicate with it16:19
JontheEchidnausign dbus16:19
JontheEchidnawhich causes the threading issues/crash16:19
JontheEchidnaor at least I think that's the cause16:20
JontheEchidnaI'm having similar issues with the jockey kcm16:20

JontheEchidnabut it is similar in that its a dbus-related crash16:21

Riddellseele: netbook not mid.  upstream says they expect it to be in working order for october and there's code there now which does something.  but it may not happen indeed17:16

Artemis_Fowlsoon to be released20:00
Artemis_Fowlwithin the next month I suppose20:00
apacheloggerI see20:01
Artemis_Fowlseele must review it first plus I should finish some other minor things for the code to release20:01
apacheloggeronce it is, we should restart the main inclusion process20:01
Artemis_Fowlprobably20:01
apacheloggerI am afraid already :D20:02
Artemis_FowlI think someone mentioned in the MIR that grub2 isn't necessary for the inclusion in main20:02
Artemis_Fowleg. a statement that grub2 isn't supported would be fine20:02
Artemis_Fowlanyway20:02
apacheloggerArtemis_Fowl: well, in 9.10 the default bootloader is grub2 ... so it might very well be required now20:03
Artemis_Fowloh20:03
Artemis_Fowldidn't know that20:03
apacheloggerthough upgrades do not get grub2, only new installs, so it might very well not be a requirement20:03
apacheloggerit certainly is a requirement for being on the CD ... but since grub is still in main I think it would justify to have a GUI config editor for it in main as well20:04
apacheloggerwell, this will have to be discussed in the MIR :S20:04
Artemis_Fowlbtw you guys are heros. debian packaging...oh god. it took me about 3 days to make a proper source debian package and make LP compile it for a PPA... :/20:04
Artemis_Fowlapachelogger: grub2 has the same options as grub?20:05
apacheloggerwell, the config is completely different AFAIK20:05
apacheloggeras a matter of fact about everything is completely different since grub2 is a rewrite of grub20:05
Artemis_Fowlbecause if a single UI can fir both cases, then only parsing the menu file is the issue20:05
Artemis_Fowlfit*20:06
apacheloggerArtemis_Fowl: I didn't look into it much yet, but I would suppose that feature parity is a target for ubuntu 9.1020:06
* Artemis_Fowl should install grub2 in a virtual box machine and test it20:07
Artemis_FowlI have absolutely no idea how things are in the Grub2-land20:07
smarterArtemis_Fowl: the format is quiet different, but it works more or less like the old one, with debian automagic in the middle :)20:07
* smarter digs for his old grub.cfg20:07
* apachelogger notes that the code needed for storing and reading configurations settings can at times be quite epic alright20:07

Artemis_Fowlapachelogger: nice. I'll keep it for test-casing20:09
apacheloggersmarter: batpaste ftw20:09
smarterI should use that :)20:09
apacheloggerI actually think that the whole file is more or less script influenced20:09
smarteras noted in the big fat warning in the top :p20:09
apacheloggerthat is where the whole references come from, each script spits in its settings etc.20:09
* apachelogger goes back to epic settings code20:10
Artemis_Fowlhmm, seems as if reading the configs will be painful20:10
smarterfor changes to not be removed at every update, you'd have to edit stuff in /etc/grub.d20:10
Artemis_Fowlmultiple files...20:10
apacheloggerwell20:11
apacheloggeryou'd need to override I suppose20:11
smarteror if you go the easy way and don't dare to touch the automagically generated stuff, add files in there20:11
Artemis_Fowlapachelogger: could you please dump me the contents of your /etc/grub.d and /etc/default/grub?20:13

apacheloggerI think I could publish my synergy plasmoid now23:05
apachelogger0.0.0.123:05
apacheloggercode looks pretty slick, well except for the epic configuration fuzz23:05
smarterapachelogger: isn't a kcm module more appropriate than a plasmoid for configuring synergy? :)23:22
smarter(though it's probably not as fun to do)23:22
apacheloggeryes, no, doesn't matter23:22
apacheloggerI splitted the code earlier today, so one could create a KCM as easy23:22
apacheloggerif it is possible using ruby-kde that is :D23:23
smarteryay for ruby stuff in kde :p23:23
* apachelogger is wondering how to split the UI stuff out though23:24
apacheloggerreally, the plasmoid would be like 30 SLOC if I get the UI and associated configuration bloat out of the plasmoid code23:25
apacheloggerwell, maybe 100 SLOC :D23:25
smarteruse Qt Designer?23:28
apacheloggersmarter: it still needs to setup the UI and fill it with the config's data23:29
smarterput that in a separate class then23:29
apacheloggerwell, doing that is kinda difficult without taking away the dynamics though :P23:30
apacheloggerwould have to split into a gazillion functions or something23:30
apacheloggerhm23:33
apacheloggeroh23:33
apacheloggeruh23:33
neversfeldeah23:35
apacheloggersmarter: I could use the designer ui files as implementation base I suppose23:35
apacheloggerthat way I could hook the configuration crap into the UI loading essentially hiding it from the UI component, while still allowing the component to fiddle with the UI as it wishes to23:36
smarteryou mean hacking the .cpp(or .rb in that case I guess) generated by designer?23:37
apacheloggerno23:38
apacheloggerclass SynergyShareConfig < Ui_SynergyShareConfig23:38
smarteryes, that's the normal way to do it then :)23:39
apacheloggerSynergyShareConfig implements a complete Ui_... but essentially I can add the config parsing and add it to a hooked-in setupUi function23:39
apacheloggernever hack generated code :D23:39
smarteryep23:39
* smarter wonders if Qt Declarative UI will make all that better23:40
apacheloggermakes also a lot more sense because right now the config magic is done independent from the UI object even though it is realyl the same :D23:40
smarterI personally can't seem to understand what it is, what it does and why it does it, same for about anything in Qt Kinetic actually (wut is a state-machine?)23:41
apacheloggersmarter: something useful for sure :D23:43
smartertotally unrelated: http://www.lolcatbible.com23:44
