* Keybuk finally figures out what about D-Bus davidz has been bitching about all this time13:43
Keybuk*contemplates versioning the D-Bus interface*13:59
KeybukI wonder whether anyone would mind if I did that, and just kept revving it13:59
sadmac2Keybuk: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=50911314:25
sadmac2Keybuk: I'm about to close that as WONTFIX. Any special message or reason I should keep it open?14:25
ionYeah, versioning the interface would be a good thing.14:29
Keybuksadmac2: we're going to move to .conf, so I guess you could say it's an open bug14:30
ionHow about .job?14:31
sadmac2Keybuk: matter of policy really14:31
Keybuksadmac2: yeah, depends how you deal with upstream bugs ;)14:31
sadmac2ion: yeah that's the other thing. .event is wrong wrong and terribly wrong14:31
Keybukion: confuses jobs and instances and crap14:31
Keybukright, the fact people think things in /etc/event.d are "events" is the whole reason to rename it in the first place14:32
Keybukthey're things run "on" events14:32
ion:-)14:32
Keybukthings in /etc/apm/suspend.d are not suspenders14:32
sadmac2Keybuk: unless apm is advanced pants management14:34
Keybuk:D14:41
ion:-D14:41
ionI sincerely don’t get the .d naming convention for directories.14:42
Keybukit made sense once14:42
Keybukif you have /etc/foo.conf14:42
Keybukthen you'd grow /etc/foo.d/*.conf14:42
ionWhy not /etc.d/apm.d/suspend.d to make it absolutely clear they are directories, in case someone forgets how stat works.14:42
Keybukyeah, that's where it got silly14:43
Keybuknew directories should never have had a ".d"14:43
ionYeah, i get that, but for instance, there never was an /etc/event.conf or equivalent.14:43
Keybukevent.d was chosen on the spur of the moment because at least three other things used it ;)14:43
sadmac2Keybuk: what other things?14:44
Keybuksadmac2: apm, powerman, d-bus14:45
Keybuk/etc/apm/event.d, /etc/power/event.d, /etc/dbus-1/event.d14:45
Keybuk;P14:45
* sadmac2 gets an old powerman5000 song in his head.14:45
=== Md_ is now known as Md
* Keybuk wonders how he ended up with a 50,000 line C file23:15
ion:-D23:15
Keybukironically this is the code that tests the dbus binding proxy code23:21
Keybukit's twice the size of the file that tests the object end using raw dbus23:21
