[09:15] <cjwatson> evand: what do you think of lp:~cjwatson/ubiquity/remove-tzmap?
[09:15]  * evand branches
[09:16] <CIA-5> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3286 remove-tzmap/ (37 files in 15 dirs):
[09:16] <CIA-5> ubiquity: * GTK frontend:
[09:16] <CIA-5> ubiquity:  - Remove support for old timezone map.
[09:17] <cjwatson> I figured we've now had one release with the new map and it looks great, so no need for the insurance option any more
[09:19] <evand> agreed.  I had tried to rip it out before, but got stuck in autotools hell and forgot about it.
[09:24] <cjwatson> I think we *may* even be able to remove gdm-signal too and use d-bus instead
[09:24] <cjwatson> but still working on that
[09:24] <cjwatson> if so, that would let the gtk frontend be architecture: all at last
[09:33] <evand> very cool
[09:33] <evand> though hrm, this seems to be a bit broken somewhere
[09:36] <cjwatson> I only tested it up to autogen :)
[09:47] <CIA-5> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1112 ubuntu/ (build/config/i386/netboot.cfg debian/changelog):
[09:47] <CIA-5> debian-installer: Disable netboot/386 for now, as the 386 kernel apparently wasn't merged
[09:47] <CIA-5> debian-installer: along with the rest of ports.
[09:53] <CIA-5> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1113 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 20081029ubuntu44
[10:47] <cjwatson> evand: ... what was the breakage?
[10:55] <evand> ./configure: line 15694: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
[10:55] <evand> ./configure: line 15694: `fi'
[10:55] <evand> if I remember correctly, this is the same problem I ran into when I tried it
[10:57] <cjwatson> should be easy to fix, let's see
[11:01] <CIA-5> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3287 remove-tzmap/ (configure configure.ac): use proper syntax for setting GTK_CFLAGS/GTK_LIBS to the empty string
[11:01] <cjwatson> (can't push yet, LP down)
[11:02] <cjwatson> the proper syntax is only documented in the header comment for AC_SUBST in /usr/share/autoconf/autoconf/general.m4, AFAICS
[11:02] <cjwatson> # Create an output variable from a shell VARIABLE.  If VALUE is given
[11:02] <cjwatson> # assign it to VARIABLE.  Use `""' if you want to set VARIABLE to an
[11:02] <cjwatson> # empty value, not an empty second argument.
[11:03] <cjwatson> of course all of that goes away anyway if we can remove gdm-signal too :)
[11:03] <evand> ahh
[11:04] <cjwatson> 11:03 <cjwatson> of course all of that goes away anyway if we can remove gdm-signal too :)
[11:04] <cjwatson> which reminds me, let's see if that dbussery works in jaunty
[11:05] <cjwatson> I'm thinking of something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/202784/
[11:05] <cjwatson> I forget why we didn't use that earlier though
[11:12] <evand> looks reasonable enough
[11:21] <cjwatson> I think that RequestReboot wasn't quite working properly in jaunty or something, we discussed it in #ubuntu-devel on 2009-04-07
[11:24] <cjwatson> hmm, it seems to work fine in jaunty so I don't quite understand what the problem was
[11:25] <cjwatson> something to do with the case where gnome-session isn't used perhaps
[12:43] <CIA-5> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3286 ubiquity/ (37 files in 15 dirs): merge lp:~cjwatson/ubiquity/remove-tzmap
[12:48] <CIA-5> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3287 ubiquity/ (26 files in 9 dirs):
[12:48] <CIA-5> ubiquity: Use a D-Bus call to gnome-session rather than the old gdm-signal code
[12:48] <CIA-5> ubiquity: we copied from powermanagement-interface. We need to depend on
[12:48] <CIA-5> ubiquity: python-dbus for this, but on the upside ubiquity-frontend-gtk becomes
[12:48] <CIA-5> ubiquity: architecture-independent.

[23:52] <hardaway> i am trying to find out what is happening with ubiquity
[23:53] <hardaway> it has problems when installing karmic remix--at the update-grub stage of installation
[23:54] <hardaway> maybe cjwatson can provide some info
[23:56] <cjwatson> hardaway: alpha 2? that was a documented problem in the release notes
[23:56] <cjwatson> it's been fixed since alpha 2
[23:58] <hardaway> i tried the remix install dated june 20 and it was broken--i filed a bug and you needed more info which i subsequently attached to the bug report
[23:58] <cjwatson> I don't know what "remix" means on its own
[23:58] <cjwatson> do you mean netbook remix
[23:58] <cjwatson> ?
[23:58] <hardaway> karmic remix
[23:59] <cjwatson> we don't produce anything by that name
[23:59] <cjwatson> what URL?
[23:59] <hardaway> the Ubuntu remix for netbooks
