pittihyperair: I'm using Ctrl+K - > in vim, see :digraphs07:50
hyperairpitti: ooh cool. thanks07:51
pittihyperair: I can remember a few unicode numbers, but not that many :) Ctrl-K is much easier, very similar to compose07:51
hyperairyeah i can imagine07:52
hyperairdigraphs is something i've never tried using before =\07:52

didrockspitti: good morning08:15
didrockspitti: I was thinking (didn't checked) that distutilsextra would handle it as a conffile08:15

mvoAmaranth: will you push that patch upstream too?08:29
Amaranthmvo: already did, in the linked bug report08:29

Amaranthmvo: alright, awesome08:33
Amaranthmvo: btw, whole load of fixes in the compiz-0.8 branch again today08:34
Amaranthhope they do a release :/08:34
mvoAmaranth: yeah, I overheard in the channel that they plan to do one08:34
mvoAmaranth: cornelius is rocking it seems, he did some nice commits :)08:34

Amaranthcool08:35
mvoabi break of course :/ but thats how it is :)08:36
Amaranthmvo: should have a lot less of those with the C++ stuff08:36
mvoAmaranth: in my experience its also hard with c++ to keep the abi stable, but I guess they will manage08:37
Amaranthmvo: I know I added a bunch of stuff to the Screen class and it didn't change the ABI08:37
Amaranthunlike in the C version where a single change does08:37
robert_ancellmvo, sorry, have to go so can't talk about compiz.  Feel free to PPA up the new version or something and I will look into it tomorrow08:38

Amaranthlool: he had an appointment to go to, probably isn't here09:09
loolk thanks09:14
maxbIf someone on the desktop team has a moment, could they update lp:~ubuntu-desktop/notification-daemon/ubuntu with the latest upload to the archive, which was done ignoring the branch? Thanks.09:33
maxbOr, if there is nothing special involved in retroactively adding a version beyond just downloading the source, manually adding the changes, and committing, tell me, and I'll propose a branch for pulling.09:35
didrocksmaxb: there is no more debian/control.in in the new upload and nothing is specified in the changelog. Is it intended?09:40
maxbUhm. I had nothing to do with the upload, I just wanted an accurate branch to submit changes against for sponsoring :-/09:41
didrocksmaxb: I will ask Aurélien, before uploading the branch09:41
maxbok09:41
didrockshey lool, how was your vacations?09:44
didrocksmaxb: ok, it was not intented. I'll upload a package to sync that first09:47
maxbok - I have a further fix for breakage introduced in -1ubuntu1 - worth combining, or do you want to keep them separate?09:49
didrocksmaxb: as you whish, I can upload it at the same time if you wish09:50

* didrocks notes on his TODO :)10:13
pittididrocks: if you create something in the postinst, it's way out of distutils' reach10:24
pittilool: upload coming, I just had to leave for a doctor appointment10:24
pittilool: I'll upload indicator-session and then flip the source task10:24
didrockspitti: I don't do anything in postinst atm. I just wanted to know what do you think about sourcing in postinst the installed file (by distutils) /etc/bash_completion.d/quickly to have shell-completion directly after installing quickly (and don't have to launch a new bash for that)?10:26
loolpitti: Ok thanks10:30
loolpitti: Is indicator-sus being removed then?10:30
loolpitti: I hope you're doing alright?10:30
pittididrocks: why would you source the completion file in the postinst? that's not even an interactive shell10:30
pittididrocks: you still have to launch a new bash, there's no way around that10:31
pittilool: renamed to -session, yes10:31
pittilool: oh yes, I just finally want to tackle my hayfever, which I have had for decades10:31
didrockspitti: yes, you're right, postinst is not source and launched from current shell but a real subshell. Ok, no clue for enabling directly shell-completion so... :/10:32
pittilool: so I went to a "nature healing center", to try with some alternative medicine10:32
didrockspitti: really? long time recovery :/ glad you're alright now.10:33
pittididrocks: it's been bothering me for years during summer (when all the grass and tree polls are flying around), but so far I just used the normal symptom medicines; time to get to the root of it :)10:35
pittididrocks: you really can't poke it into existing shells, sorry10:35
loolpitti: Ah would love to hear how that turns out to work then10:39
loolIn a couple of months10:39
pittiso am I :)10:39
loolpitti: So on MIRs, everything should pretty much be asssigned10:39
loolasac is on VAC; he did a good job on euca MIRs but had some backlog on the other ones10:39
pittilool: thanks for having taken care of that during my holidays; I didn't really catch up on MIRs yet, I'm afraid10:39
loolI have some little backlog on the regular MIRs which I'm taking care of as much as possible10:40
loolThe biggest issue is the euca MIRs10:40
loolWe need to process as much as possible this week10:40
pitti*nod*10:40
loolI said Thierry we'd promote euca even if we dont complete the MIRs to have euca on the server CD for A5 and then would post process the MIRs10:40
looldoko/kees are relatively busy; I kept Kees' time for the security related stuff mostly10:41
pittilool: I agree to early promotion, also for testing stuff10:42
* pitti goes back to catch up on OMGurgent stuff10:43
pittilool: FYI, I'm using https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mir/+subscribedbugs?assignee_option=none&orderby=status for "unassigned MIRs"; seems there's still a bunch of them, I'll go through them11:06
chrisccoulsongood morning everyone11:07
pittilool: ah, seems that euca was promoted already? http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.txt is full of it11:07
pittihey chrisccoulson!11:07
didrockshello chrisccoulson11:07
chrisccoulsonhey pitti! enjoying your time back?11:07
chrisccoulsonhi didrocks too:)11:08
loolpitti: There's an issue, I'm using a similar URL (https://bugs.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mir/+bugs?assignee_option=none) but it lists bugs which do have an assignee11:08
loolpitti: I didnt know it had been promoted already11:08
loolIt was slated for happening this week, tomorrow IIRC11:08
pittiso we should just promote the rest as well, to fix component-mismatches and unbreak server CD builds11:09
loolpitti: The ruby stuff might not be assigned yet, but I'd like to clarify with Riddell about pulling ruby in the kubuntu CD11:10
pittiok, will ignore this for now11:10
loolpitti: Another LP bug I seem to be a victim of is that I dont get any email when ubuntu-mir is subscribed11:10
loolI just see comments afterwards, but no NEW anymore11:10
Riddellwe've always had ruby on the Kubuntu CD11:10
pittilool: right, I seem to suffer the same11:10
loolRiddell: I mean the new ruby libs11:11
pittilool: I don't rely on that any more, and just use that bug list11:11
Riddellanother library isn't likely to make much difference11:11
loolpitti: Yeah that's what I did too, but it's painful due to the first bug (list bugs with assignees)!11:11
loolpitti: Ok I guess that clarifies that the ruby stuff is up for assignment11:11
pittilool: maybe it works on +subscribedbugs but not on +bugs for some reason?11:13
pittiArneGoetje: should the seeds be changed to ibus now? can you please give a list of all the new necessary packages in the MIR bug? (check the current dependencies of ubuntu-desktop for the current set)11:15
loolpitti: Oh indeed11:15
loolTss11:15
pittiArneGoetje: also, did the necessary Xsession.d/ switching magic land?11:15
pitti(I guess that's a precondition for promoting and seeding it)11:15
loolpitti: soren apparently just seeded euca which is why it just appeared on components-mismatches11:18
loolforwarded you an email to that effect11:18
pittiah, I see11:18
sorenlool: Err... I didn't.11:18
sorenI was *just* about to.11:18
sorenIf it's there now, someone else did it.11:18
* soren wonders11:19
sorenTask: eucalyptus-simple-cluster11:19
sorenThat must be Colin.11:19
loolOh right he worked on the d-i integration11:23
pittieucalyptus | 1.6~bzr452-0ubuntu4 | karmic/universe | source11:23
loolI approved his MIRs before the euca one11:23
pittiright, still in universe11:23
pittilool: so it's basically just you and me for this week, right? (plus kees who is busy with the more intense security review of already assigned MIRs)11:24
pittiso I'll distribute the currently outstanding ones between the two of us11:24
loolpitti: Yeah   :-(11:25
pittilool: did you review ruby packages before? I'm inclined to assign all those small ruby libs to the same person, and the rest to the other; do you want to review them?11:26
loolpitti: I now belive we're understaffed; I focused a lot on MIRs in the last weeks and it's eating a lot of time yet I still have a constant backlog not counting the euca stuff11:26
pitti(I'm fine, too, just wanting to know your prefs)11:26
loolpitti: I didnt particularly review ruby packages but should be ok11:26
pittilool: understaffed> right, the euca hit plus holiday season doesn't help :/11:26
pittibut I don't think we can thoroughly review all the euca pacakges anyway11:26
loolpitti: Perhaps we should add new blood too?  When I started Kees and doko had more time for MIRs11:27
pittiwe shouldn't spend more than 5 mins on the trivial java packages each11:27
pittilool: that would be good indeed11:27
chrisccoulsonasac recently updated gnome-python-extras and bumped the version number from 2.25.3-2ubuntu2 to 2.25.3-2ubuntu2.0xul191. i want to do a small change to it now, and wonder what i should make the version number11:27
chrisccoulson2.25.3-2ubuntu2.0xul191.1 or 2.25.3-2ubuntu3?11:27
pittichrisccoulson: 2ubuntu3 IMHO11:27
chrisccoulsonpitti - thanks11:27
pittiI guess the xul191* stuff was from a PPA or so11:28
chrisccoulsonpossibly11:28
chrisccoulsonwould you mind reviewing the change in a bit? it's needed for me to get the new version of glom in before FF tomorrow11:28
chrisccoulson(i know everyone is really busy today though) ;)11:28
pittichrisccoulson: sure, just toss a pastebin url here11:39
pittilool: ok, got them all assigned now, I took the majority of them since you still have a large backlog (your new ones should be quick, though)11:41
loolThanks!11:42
chrisccoulsonhey pitti - the change i want to make to gnome-python-extras is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/259246/12:32
chrisccoulsonglom depends on python-gda12:32
Amaranthrickspencer3-afk, didrocks: You probably don't want to have your developer week session called "squickly fun" considering what "squick" means...12:33
pittichrisccoulson: libgda4 is in universe, though12:34
pittichrisccoulson: eyeballing the debian/rules change is hard, but I take it you tested it, so it should be okay :)12:35
pittichrisccoulson: so this needs a MIR for libgda4?12:35
pittichrisccoulson: we have libgda3 in main, smells like duplication12:36
pitti(unknown what we need it for, or whether rdepends can use gda4)12:36
chrisccoulsonhmmm12:36
chrisccoulsoni'll have a think about that. got to disappear for a bit12:36
mptmvo, does <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareStore#How%20you%20can%20help> look sane to you?12:56
didrocksAmaranth: yes, it was a temporary title but I think rickspencer3-afk didn't ask to change it (it was $quickly actually)12:56
mptmvo, btw, it looks like MoinMoin doesn't transfer subscriptions when a wiki page is renamed, so you may want to resubscribe12:58
mptjames_w, is there a simple page somewhere describing how to branch an Ubuntu package?12:59
james_whttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/13:00
Amaranthdidrocks: yeah, but $ is leet for s :P13:01
chrisccoulsonpitti - libgda3 and libgda4 are both from the same upstream project (libgda). we just rename the source tarballs to incorporate the API version so we can ship multiple versions13:01
chrisccoulsonso, libgda4 is the successor to libgda3 really. and glom depends on the later version13:01
Laneyglom's new version ported to the new API13:02
LaneyI think13:02
Laneyoh, feature freeze... I was going to look at that update13:02
mptjames_w, perfect! thanks13:02
* Laney weeps13:02
mvompt: that looks sane13:02
chrisccoulsonLaney - yeah. i already started looking at the glom update13:03
chrisccoulsoni updated some libraries some weeks ago for it, then got sidetracked13:03
mvompt: how is the virtual machine setup going?13:03
LaneyI did some in the past but kind of lost interest in it13:03
Laneyit's a great idea but still quite buggy13:03
chrisccoulsonand glom needs pygda too, which we currently don't even build13:03
chrisccoulsonand to pygda needs the latest version of libgda, which is currently in universe13:03
mptmvo, I installed Karmic yesterday, installed the apt-daemon package, and branched software-center, but got a xapian error ("unknown database type" or something like that)13:04
mptmvo, I guessed much later that it was because I should have had the version of apt-daemon from your PPA rather than from Ubuntu. Is that correct?13:04
mpts/software-center/software-store/13:04
mvompt: its because of the renaming buisiness, sorry. please install the "software-store" package from the archive13:05
mvompt: that should fix it13:05
mptmvo, it's in the archive? sweet13:05
mvompt: yeah, james_w did a superfast NEW review13:05
* mvo hugs james_w for this13:05
mptthanks james_w13:05
james_wI knew it would be an easy one ;-)13:06
mptyeah, not likely to get many packaging errors from mvo of all people13:06
mptmvo, so would you prefer to track all bugs on the package rather than the project, as with ubiquity for example?13:06
mvompt: I persoally prefer to have a single point to look at, I never really liked that its not possible to say "show me all software-store bugs (no matter if project or distro)13:07
mvompt: this is why I prefer to track them on the package. if LP would offer me a single view for all bugs, I would not mind13:08
Laneychrisccoulson: I was trying to lay the ground work for glom in Debian too13:08
Laneydunno if you are interested in doing something there13:08
mptmvo, yes, that's bug 76416 (which I reported nearly three years ago now)13:08
ubottuLaunchpad bug 76416 in malone "Handle a distribution being its own upstream for a package" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/7641613:08
chrisccoulsonLaney - possibly. I will take a look at glom again this week, but i don't think it's going to make FF now13:08
mvompt: :)13:08
Laneynah13:08
mvompt: so for now I would prefer bugreports on packages13:09
mvompt: how does it look so far to you?13:09
mptmvo, I'll need to restart into Karmic to find out :-) (I'll do that VM thing later-ish)13:09
mptfor now I'm filling in a few sections on the spec, and then I'll send you a draft announcement for ubuntu-desktop@13:10
mvompt: ok, no rush, I did not had a chance to work on it this morning, so nothing new since we talked last13:10
mvompt: nice, thanks13:10
mptmvo, so maybe we should set the software-store project as *not* using Launchpad for tracking bugs, and instead point people (in the project description) to the package Bugs page. Make sense?13:11
mvompt: yeah, good point13:12
mptok, I'll do that now13:16
mvothanks mpt13:17
mptmvo, what is the relationship between the summaries/descriptions in the app-install-data(...) packages and the summaries/descriptions in the corresponding packages? Are they automatically synced, or manually synced, or what?13:18
* mpt is confused as to why <https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/app-install-data> lists no versions13:21
mvompt: please try https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/app-install-data-ubuntu13:22
mvompt: the long description is taken from the apt repository (so its what apt-cache show apt) will show13:22
mptaha, thanks13:22
mvompt: that is refreshed with every apt-get update run13:22
mvompt: but the app name and the inital line is taken from the desktop file13:23
* mpt slowly realizes that the app-install-data-ubuntu source package provides the app-install-data binary package, and the app-install-data source package does not13:25
mvompt: there is no app-install-data source package (well, there was at some point in the long long ago past)13:26
mvoLP never forgets ;)13:26
mptApparently it forgets about the long-deceased versions, but not about the name13:26
* mvo nods13:27
mptmvo, so is the "initial line" (shall we call it the "summary"?) from the .desktop file often the same as the first line in the Description: field for the package?13:29
mvompt: I stand corrected, currently its using the app name and then the apt description. g-a-i is using "appname, comment, apt description"13:34
mvompt: the summary is almost never the same as the desktop file13:34
mvompt: they are maintained by two different people usually (but not always). desktop-file is upstream, the apt description data is the debian/ubuntu maintainer13:35
chrisccoulsonAmpelbein - your gnome-applets update has an error13:35
mptunderstood13:35
chrisccoulsonthe current BZR version has an unreleased change13:35
chrisccoulsonbut you didn't account for that in the changelog13:36
chrisccoulsongnome-applets (2.27.4-0ubuntu2) UNRELEASED; urgency=low13:36
chrisccoulsonshould be replaced with "gnome-applets (2.27.91-0ubuntu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low" rather than added to13:36
mvompt: should I add the comment line (just like with g-a-i) back ?13:37
mvompt: the current view has the advantage that its more polished13:37
mptmvo, not sure yet. Where does the Comment come from?13:37
mvompt: from the upstream desktop file. it may not match very well with the apt description (as its two different people writing them)13:38
Ampelbeinchrisccoulson: I thought about that. I thought it would be sufficient to pass -v2.27.4-0ubuntu1 to debuild to pull that in to the changes. But I can merge it with the other changelog entry.13:38
mptmvo: So we have available (1) package name [from Debian/Ubuntu packager], (2) application name [.desktop file via app-install-data-ubuntu], (3) Comment [.desktop file via app-install-data-ubuntu], (4) Summary [first line of Description: from Debian/Ubuntu maintainer, treated specially], and (5) Description [the rest of the Description: from Debian/Ubuntu maintainer]. Is that right?13:41
chrisccoulsonAmpelbein - thanks13:41
mvompt: yes, correct13:41
mptEgads.13:41
mvompt: and if we expand to non-apps we loose all the info from the desktop files of course13:42
mptsure13:42
mvompt: and right now multiple applications can be in a single package13:42
mptyes13:42
mvompt: (that is pretty common)13:42
mpte.g. gnome-games13:42
mvoyeah13:42
mvoits probably worthwhile to have this information somewhere iin the long description, I put them small in the appdetails currently13:43
mvo(not sure that is the best place)13:43
pittichrisccoulson: right; I asked whether we really need to keep both versions in main, perhaps we can transition 3 to 4?13:44
chrisccoulsonpitti - perhaps. i've not looked at the rdepends for libgda3 yet13:45
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure this is going to make FF though - i'm time limited at the moment ;)13:45

kenvandineright?13:56
mvoglatzor_: sure13:57
pittikenvandine: correct, the one that will drop the file13:57
pittikenvandine: with that, apt will ensure to unpack the new gdm first, and then i-a-s13:57
pittibtw, is xsplash supposed to work in karmic?13:58

kenvandineoh13:59
pitti(doesn't matter much)13:59
mvoglatzor_: uploaded14:01
kenvandinepitti, indicator-applet branch pushed14:02
kenvandinepitti, lets talk about xsplash in a few14:04
* kenvandine is testing trunk :)14:04
kenvandinepitti, fyi new xsplash version coming today :)14:04
pittikenvandine: i-a uploaded14:08
kenvandinethx14:08
kenvandinepitti, the PK deprecation is important right?14:09
kenvandineas in must be done before feature freeze?14:10
pittikenvandine: not necessarily for FF14:10
pittibut I'd really like it to get done for beta or so14:10
kenvandineok, but for karmic :)14:10
kenvandinetedg, ^^14:10
pittiit'd be very ugly to ship with two PK stacks14:10
pittisince it also means two PK UIs, two dialogs, string sets, and configurations14:10
pittiand I expect this one to be trivial (just rip out all the code)14:11
kenvandineewwww14:11
pittikenvandine: why does gdm need to depend on i-a-s? shouldn't it be the other way round rather?14:11
pittior we should just explicitly seed i-a-s?14:11
tedgpitti: Yeah, I think so.  But we haven't been able to develop an automatic test suite for all of the login/logout stuff -- especially in the multi user case.  So it's lots of manual testing.14:12
kenvandinewe should see i-a-s14:12
kenvandineseed14:12
pittikenvandine: right14:12
kenvandinepitti, i assumed that is what we did for fusa14:12
pittitedg: sorry, that was a reply to what?14:12
* kenvandine looks at the gdm package14:12
tedgpitti: The PK stuff in indicator-session.14:12
pittitedg: ah14:13
kenvandineoh it's a recommends14:13
pittitedg: that's just client-side code, or does it provide PK-protected services?14:13
kenvandinepitti, i suspect that was just someone replacing fusa with i-a-s14:13
pittitedg: (I suppose the former)14:13
tedgpitti: Just client side in the case of multi-user logged in and trying to shutdown.14:13
pittitedg: right, that's easy then; just rip it all out :)14:13
pittiand it's even necessary, since gdm itself uses PK-114:13
pittiso using the old PK API will break14:14
tedgpitti: Well, not entirely the case.  As we need to test on whether there are multiple users so we dont' show two dialogs... but yes, it shouldn't be a huge deal.14:14
tedgpitti: I just have a list of things for Feature Freeze to do, and I'm avoiding putting another on the list :)14:14
pittitedg: right, as I said, it's not FF critical14:14
tedgpitti: Cool, I'll file a bug and tag it.14:15
pittiI just wanted to know how much effort it is (real porting or just dropping)14:15
pittitedg: some details are in the MIR bug, FYI14:15

pittioh, so xplash does actually run14:31
pittiit just makes my login experience much uglier than before :(14:31
pittitedg, kenvandine: anyway, i-a-s seems to work; it starts as "offline", has a terminal symbol in the panel and no icons in the menu, but otherwise does its job14:31
tedgpitti: Yes, both of those fixes are waiting on code review :)14:32
pittitedg: retroactive bug fixing, you rock!14:32
pittibratsche: so, with current xsplash I get a lot of flickering, it times out too early, and it doesn't cope with xrandr resolution changes during login; are any of those known, or shall I file bugs for them?14:35
kenvandinepitti, the flicker is fixed14:36
kenvandinefile the other issues14:36
pittiok, will do14:37
kenvandinepitti, we really want a release today14:37
pittiright, not saying that those are blockers14:37
pittiI just wasn't aware that xplash looks like a background image, I though there was some throbber or so14:37
pittiso I didn't actually notice it14:37
pittikenvandine: ok, so I go ahead and seed indicator-session-applet; anything else?14:39
kenvandineyes please14:40
kenvandinewell we need to seed evolution-couchdb... but i can't get it to work :/14:40
kenvandinepitti, oh yeah... one more thing14:40

kenvandineno!14:44
Amarantheveryone uses gmail, doncha know? ;)14:44
bratschepitti: xrandr is not a known issue.  The other ones I believe are fixed.14:44
pittibratsche: timeout is tricky, I guess; on a cold boot, gnome takes some 40 seconds to start for me, but I have a ridiculously slow hd14:45
pittibratsche: and we don't have the gnome-panel and nautilus d-bus sends for proper termination yet, or do we? (the bug is still open)14:45
Amaranthpitti: I bet a quarter of that is compiz :/14:46
bratschepitti: Yes we do.  But the timeout is currently set to like 10 or 15 seconds or something in case something goes wrong.14:46
kenvandinepitti, so that isn't a bug... more of a design decision :)14:47
kenvandine10s is enough time for gnome to load here... not sure if we should bump that up14:47
bratscheWe could bump it to 15s if you think it's necessary, but I would not want to go higher than that I think.14:48
kenvandine10s is enough for my laptop, desktop and all my test VMs :)14:48
pittikenvandine: right, I just noticed it14:49
pittibut if we shold get the d-bus commands in the normal case, the timeout shouldn't actually kick in normally, no?14:49
bratschepitti: One thing I'm wondering about (and I think seb maybe answered this for me in Dublin and I forgot now).. is why can't we enable metacity compositing for the gdm user's session?14:50
bratschepitti: Right, the timeout is only for the fallback in case something with the dbus signals goes wrong.  So it's okay if it's set longer, but 40s sounds longer than I'd want even the fallback.14:50
bratschepitti: Because if something goes wrong on a system whose desktop normally loads in 10s.. then that user is sitting on xsplash for 40s.14:51
pittibratsche: right, 15 seconds seems appropriate to me as well14:51
pittibratsche: we have never had a broad test of metacity compositing, it will cause a whole new flush of hardware specific bugs (similar to compiz) (that was the reason AFAIUI)14:52
bratscheOh okay, bummer.14:52
pittibratsche: but gdm doesn't actually use/need compositing, or do you plan a new theming for it?14:53
Amaranthyay buggy drivers14:53
pittibratsche: well, not just the drivers, also the WM itself; many bugs are in compiz proper14:53
bratschepitti: The original xsplash spec wanted it to fade in both the gdm and user sessions, but right now it can only fade out in the user session.14:53
pittiand given how excruciatingly bad mutter is at the moment, I wouldn't expect metacity to be so much better :/14:53
bratscheAnd right now it looks pretty terrible in the gdm session imo.14:53
pittiah, I see14:54
pittithat's a matter of WM?14:54
pittiI had expected that xplash itself would need to enable compositing14:54
pittibut I don't pretend to actually understand compositing that much14:54
bratscheI just set the window opacity to fade it, but you have to have compositing enabled for that to do anything.14:54
Amaranthpitti: xsplash could be a compositor but it would have basically a copy of the metacity code14:55
bratscheAmaranth: Yeah, I thought about that but that's getting way out of scope. ;)14:55
pittican we enable metacity compositing in gdm only?14:55
Amaranththe only other way to do a fade is the way gksu used to before I patched it: take a screenshot and blend the screenshot with your final look over time14:55
pittiwithout enabling it for user sessions?14:55
bratschepitti: I would assume we could, yes.. it's just a gconf setting for gdm user.14:56
Amaranthbut you can't do that in this case because without a compositor your final screen is blocked from view anyway14:56
Amaranthmetacity compositing is actually pretty stable14:56
AmaranthThe two times it is most likely to break are turning it on and turning it off though14:57
LaneyI found it to be more stable than compiz, fwiw14:58
bratscheheh14:58
Laneybut bugs are likely to be hardware specific eh14:58
bratscheI never noticed stability issues with either, but I didn't run metacity compositing for very long.  It's very slow, not suitable for a user session.14:58
Amaranthbratsche: depends on your video card, drivers are more likely to get OpenGL acceleration right than XRender acceleration14:59
bratscheAmaranth: Will the XRender fu work correctly if you don't have any special drivers?  That's probably the most important thing in this case.14:59
Amaranthbratsche: but even running it all in software should be fine for gdm14:59
Amaranthbratsche: turn it on when using the vesa driver and see :)15:00
bratschek15:00
Amaranthif that is fast enough for xsplash you should be ok15:00
bratscheI'll try it after my next call.15:01
Amaranthalthough you'll have to consider netbooks with GMA500 chips too since that'll probably be all software rendering on the atom15:01
ArneGoetjepitti: the Xsession.d/ magic has not happend yet... and I would need some help for this to happen, since I'm very busy with the language-selector development in the moment. The changes would need to go into the im-switch package.15:07

awehow does a package get demoted to universe?17:51
pittiawe: if that's blocking you for something FFish, please get it to me after the meeting17:51
aweeg. bluez-gnome17:51
pittiawe: demoted> officially: report a bug against it, and subscribe ubuntu-archive17:51
aweok17:51
rickspencer3does bluez need to be demoted?17:52
pittiawe: but in practice, you just get the new package into the seeds, and then it'll automatically fall out of main17:52
awebluez-gnome, not bluez17:52
pittirickspencer3: no, I think that's the underlying daemon which we keep17:52
awepitti, ah ok17:52
rickspencer3k17:52
pittiawe: so promoting it to main and getting it into the seeds is the only remaining thing for this spec?17:52
awepitti, it's been promoted to main, the mir bug hasn't been closed though...17:53
awei'll follow up and make sure to update the spec accordingly17:53
pittiwork items say that it's just MIR, documentatino, and testing what is left, so that looks good17:53
aweyea17:53
pittiawe: indeed, it's already the default in ubuntu-desktop17:54
pittiawe: please set to beta avail then17:54

pittidesktop-karmic-browsers (good progress)17:54
awenp17:54
pittisays "good progress", but all work items are "TODO"17:55
pittibut at least the ffox 3.5 migration is mostly done, AFAICS, so that might be stale17:55
rickspencer3pitti: it's odd, as I think it overlaps with mozilla 3.5 spec17:55
rickspencer3and chromium is outside scope of ff, I think17:55
rickspencer3I suggest we follow up with asac when he gets back next week17:56
pittiright, I think for FF this is good enough, and we'll ask asac to update the spec next week17:56
pittisame for desktop-karmic-firefox-3.517:56
pitti3.5 is the default, so for FF purposes this is beta avail17:56
rickspencer3yes, I think it should be set to beta avail17:56
pitti(changed)17:57
pitti   desktop-karmic-gnome-speech-replacement (good progress)17:57
pittiI guess TheMuso is tight asleep17:57
rickspencer3right17:57
rickspencer3hold on17:57
pittirickspencer3: could you perhaps handle that in the eastern edition?17:57
rickspencer3go ahead, I'll check my notes17:57
pittiI'm afraid I don't know about this one17:57
rickspencer3yes, and we will cover tonight/tomrrow17:57
=== Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth
pitti   desktop-karmic-social-from-the-start (good progress)17:58
pittikenvandine?17:58
kenvandinegwibber feature work is done, being merged back into trunk then will branch for 2.0... shooting to upload a snapshot of 2.0 tomorrow17:58
kenvandinei need to do the MIR for that (today)17:58
kenvandinethis one will be tight, but should make it17:58
pittiis it bound to get on the CDs?17:58
kenvandineyes17:58
kenvandineafaik17:58
rickspencer3kenvandine: pitti: I have to ask again17:59
pittiso, another 2.5 MB to take from the -1 MB of free CD space17:59
pitti(different topic, though)17:59
rickspencer3why are we pushing gwibber into main now?17:59
kenvandinerickspencer3, yeah... please find out asap17:59
kenvandinerickspencer3, cause i was told it would be on the CD17:59
kenvandineif not then no need for main18:00
rickspencer3but that was for dx features that aren't going to be implemented18:00
kenvandinerickspencer3, i don' tthink that was the driver18:00
kenvandinethat came up after the social from the start stuff started18:00
kenvandineit wasn't initially dx work18:00
rickspencer3kenvandine: right, the idea being that all kinds of stuff would use the backend18:00
pittiisn't empathy enough "social" :-)18:00
kenvandinehehe18:00
kenvandinepitti, true!18:00
* ccheney hopes gwibber is somewhat more stable than it was in June18:01
kenvandineccheney, should be18:01
rickspencer3let's take as POR that we don't need Gwibber in main, and I'll follow up asap to make sure that there is buy in18:01
rickspencer3if there is push back, we'll get an exception18:01
kenvandinerickspencer3, thx!18:01
rickspencer31. Gwibber 2 is coming in hot18:01
pittimore seriously, seb128 had some real issues with the code quality and architecture18:01
rickspencer32. We are desperate for room on the CD18:01
kenvandinerickspencer3, agreed18:01
rickspencer3pitti: right, that's kind of my #118:01
pittibut we traditionally have been moving stuff to main way past FF, as long as the package itself sticks to FF18:02
pittibut it should happen before beta18:02
kenvandineok18:02
pittiand finally18:02
pitti   desktop-karmic-input-methods (good progress)18:02
pittiArneGoetje?18:02
pittikenvandine: oh, if the rest is done, please set to "beta avail"18:03
pittikenvandine: (MIR can be "POSTPONED" then)18:03
ArneGoetjeibus-anthy, -hangul and -chewing need to be synced from debian, then the seeds can be changed18:03
kenvandineok18:03
kenvandinewill do18:03
ccheneypitti: cases where that was caused by OOo shouldn't happen much anymore (if at all)18:03
pittiArneGoetje: I saw the bug, will sync as soon as they actually land in sid18:03
ArneGoetjepitti: ok18:03
pitticcheney: "that"?18:03
ccheneypitti: er the pushing stuff into main from universe past FF18:04
pittiArneGoetje: so we're missing the small change to the xsession.d script to select the right method (scim vs. ibus), right?18:04
pittichrisccoulson: ah, good to know18:04
ArneGoetjepitti: then we need to figure out how much space on the cd the scim/ibus shuffle will buy/cost us18:04
ccheneypitti: we used to put a new OOo in right around final freeze which would pull a lot of things in18:04
pittichrisccoulson: now eucalyptus has taken over the role of "need 60 new java libs" :)18:04
ArneGoetjepitti: yes. that should be done in im-switch, I guess... however, it's not trivial.18:04
ccheneypitti: for the past release cycle (and hopefully to continue) we will have the final version of OOo in around feature freeze18:04
chrisccoulsonpitti - do i need to do a full MIR for libgda4?18:05
pittichrisccoulson: after meeting, please18:05
chrisccoulsonpitti - no problem:)18:05
pittichrisccoulson: (not really, but we generally object to library duplication)18:05
ArneGoetjepitti: if anyone with a better background knowledge of update-alternatives could assist for doing that, I would highly appreciate it.18:06
pittiArneGoetje: update-alternatives?18:06
ArneGoetjepitti: yes, that's what selects which IM is going to be used.18:06
pittiArneGoetje: I thought that was an user setting18:06
pittiok, then u-a on a system level; in away that should make things easier18:07
ArneGoetjepitti: if we want to have it automatically, u-a is the current way im-switch uses it18:07
ArneGoetjepitti: only problem is, im-switch uses it based on the user's locale18:07
pittiright, that's why I thought it was an user setting18:08
pittiok, let's discuss after meeting18:08
ArneGoetjeok18:08
pittiactually, that's the end of the list18:08
pittithe rest is beta avail/implemented18:08
* pitti hands mike back to rickspencer318:08
pittithanks everyone18:08
* rickspencer3 will have lots of summarizing to do18:08
rickspencer3before we end, I'd like to touch on a couple of hot spots that may not be ff related per se18:09
rickspencer3bryce: x? seems to be working well ... are we more or less running our final xstack now?18:09
* rickspencer3 asks loaded question18:09
* pitti is particularly interested in ATI/KMS, since that's FFish18:10
brycerickspencer3, pretty close18:10
brycerickspencer3, still need to get -ati updated, and there was a problem with last week's mesa upload I need to investigate18:10
brycerickspencer3, aside from that it's mostly bug fixing here on out18:10
rickspencer3bryce: so the mesa 7.6 branch did not upload?18:10
brycerickspencer3, it uploaded but didn't build on the buildd's18:10
rickspencer3oops18:11
rickspencer3ok18:11
bryce(built fine in ppas, I think it's just a version discrepancy on libdrm)18:11
rickspencer3so when you get that sorted out, we may see some regressions, but ati kms should work, right?18:12
bryceonce that's sorted, people will be able to test ati kms, but we'll still be running ums at that point18:12
rickspencer3ok18:12
rickspencer3thanks18:12
bryceit'll take a kernel change to switch us to kms officially18:12
bryceif the testing goes well18:12
rickspencer3ok18:12
rickspencer3so this is next weekish?18:13
bryceyes, the mesa and -ati stuff should be this week by thursday, the kernel change can be whenever, it's minor18:13
bryce(I think... need to doublecheck with andy)18:13
pittibryce: can you test it already with a kernel option in grub?18:13
brycepitti, not until the mesa/-ati stuff is sorted18:14
pittiright, I meant kernel-wise18:14
brycepitti, oh I believe so, but that's what I need to doublecheck with andy18:14
rickspencer3we should track this, as it will be new features after ff ...18:15
rickspencer3but in general, sounds managable18:15
rickspencer3bryce: thanks for your very systematic efforts moving x forward this release!18:15
rickspencer3ccheney: thanks for getting us in good position wrt OOo despite being on your OEM rotation18:16
rickspencer3finally ... looking at the burndown chart has been giving me some heartburn for the last couple of weeks18:16
Riddellyay for KDE OOo integration getting in18:16
rickspencer3though folks assure me that after feature freeze, there should be a dramatic reduction in open items18:16
rickspencer3so I think we need to go on a postponing binge right after FF, probably monday18:17
kenvandinerickspencer3, there are a bunch of extra work items on the u1 integration blueprint18:17
rickspencer3it is better to postpone early18:17
kenvandinestuff that ended up landing in other things...18:17
kenvandinenoise18:17
* rickspencer3 did not single out kenvandine ;)18:17
kenvandinejust saying that should drop it way down18:18
rickspencer3kenvandine: ok, would be useful to just delete those lines and remove the noise18:18
kenvandinelike 12 or 15ish18:18
rickspencer3great18:18
kenvandinei want to run it by josh18:18
* kenvandine wants rickspencer3 to sleep at night18:18
rickspencer3hehe18:18
rickspencer3last thing ..18:18
rickspencer3we have partners relying on us to help them achieve their goals ...18:19
rickspencer3and I can see everyone working hard to help them18:19
rickspencer3that's really great ... and when I look at the release as a whole, I see that we are on a great trajectory for both new features, and good stability18:19
rickspencer3this includes Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and UNR18:20
rickspencer3any other business?18:20
bratschepitti: btw.. I'm noticing that I'm still having this problem in Karmic that when I switch from Normal effects to None, it works fine.. but going back to Normal effects doesn't work.  Do you know why this may be?  (Intel X3100 video hardware, fwiw)18:21
rickspencer3pitti: awesome job getting ff together, on your 2nd say back!!18:21
* rickspencer3 taps gavel18:21
pittibratsche: it's a bug in the capplet18:21
pitti:)18:21
bratscheOkay, cool.18:21
pitticheers to the team :)18:22
brycethanks18:22
pittithanks everyone18:22
pittibratsche: ah, actually no; AFAIR it quickly starts compiz, then fails, then starts metacity again, doesn't it? i. e. compiz bug18:22
chrisccoulsonpitti / bratsche - i'd be interested if its a capplet bug just in case it's anything i broke when i ported to gtkbuilder ;)18:23
pittichrisccoulson: no, that happened way before, I think18:23
chrisccoulsonpitti - thanks:)18:23
chrisccoulsonso, you free to talk about libgda now? ;)18:23
pittiand it really doesn't look being related to gtkbuilder18:23
chrisccoulsoni cant test features like that in the capplet as i have no compositing on my setup at the moment ;)18:24
pittichrisccoulson: as I said, the main problem is not so much the MIR bureaucracy, as library duplication18:24
chrisccoulsonpitti - right. i think libgda3 can be demoted to universe though. i had a look at the rdepends, and it doesn't look like anything in main uses it anymore18:25
bratschepitti: Yeah it pops up a dialog that says "searching for drivers" or something.. then it seems to start compiz, then reverts to metacity.  But if I go into gconf-editor and switch it to compiz manually and then run compiz --replace everything is fine.18:25
pittichrisccoulson: checking18:25
kklimondachrisccoulson, have you said anything about transmission qt? it looks i got disconnected from bnc and my backlog wasnt long enough.18:26
chrisccoulsonkklimonda - no18:26
pittichrisccoulson:18:26
pitti-- karmic/main build deps on libgda3-dev:18:26
pittiplanner18:26
pittithat's the only thing18:26
pedro_pitti, may you have a look to bug 403192 later? we're having ~83 dups18:26
ubottuLaunchpad bug 403192 in gnome-disk-utility "update-notifier crashed with SIGSEGV in gdu_pool_get_devices()" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40319218:26
pittipedro_: I already had a quick look, but this needs some serious time18:27
chrisccoulsonpitti - doesn't that sound like a rogue dependency?18:27
pittipedro_: it's on my radar, but not important enough to be done before FF, I'm afraid18:27
chrisccoulson(i didn't check libgda3-dev actually, i only looked at libgda3-3)18:27
pedro_pitti, ok, thanks!18:27
pittichrisccoulson: I have no idea about planner, but apparently it uses some DB functionality?18:28
james_wpedro_: didn't I provide some patch for that already?18:28
chrisccoulsonah, yes18:28
chrisccoulsonputti - but it's only a suggests18:28
chrisccoulsons/putti/pitti18:28
chrisccoulsonlol18:28
pittichrisccoulson: no, it's a build dep and a binary dep of planner-dev18:28
james_wyeah, I did, but it's rather a band-aid18:29
james_wthere's a race condition or something at login18:29
chrisccoulsonpitti - yes, you're right. so it's probably possible to port this to libgda418:29
pittiright, and David said it "should not" fail18:29
* kenvandine runs out for lunch18:30
kklimondachrisccoulson, if everyone are too busy to make an update to 1.74 before deadline there is always my merge of 1.73-5 in LP. As QT is the only new feature we can always merge 1.74 after FF.18:30
chrisccoulsonkklimonda - can you do the merge and the update to 1.74 in one go? :)18:30
pittichrisccoulson: if the API isn't too different, perhaps it just works18:31
Amaranthbratsche: try to make it switch to compiz then look in .xsession-errors18:31
kklimondathe problem is I can't do it till this sunday as I'm on vacations (damn mobile phones and irc clients ;) )18:31
Amaranthfinally a developer with this problem I can prod at :)18:32
chrisccoulsonpitti - possibly. i will take a look at that and see18:32
chrisccoulsonkklimonda - that's ok. i'm sure someone will pick it up if they have the chance18:32

chrisccoulsonpitti - it looks like some work to port planner from libgda3 -> 419:00
chrisccoulsonthe api looks quite different19:00
ccheneyrickspencer3-afk: i don't recall if i mentioned this earlier but the final OOo 3.1.1 should be out on Thursday so after that goes in only bug fixes from updated using newer ooo-builds will be added19:03
ccheneyrickspencer3-afk: we're in the middle of a time crunch release for oem atm so pretty busy with it, but should be done in time to get OOo 3.1.1 in19:04
rickspencer3-afkccheney, great19:05
rickspencer3-afkplease let pitti know if you think there will be a ff related issue .. but I would think it would be fine to do after ff, since it's bug fixes for existing packages19:06
ccheneyso far i don't know of anything except the splash screen which i already emailed kwwii about again19:06
ccheneybut that is under uif instead19:07
pittichrisccoulson: ok, don't waste too much work on it19:33
ArneGoetjepitti: discuss the Xsession.d/ stuff tomorrow?19:37

pittijames_w: good work! btw, davidz is in #udev, if you want to discuss that directly with him19:38
james_wpitti: thanks. Post FF I think :-)19:39
mclasendidrocks: hey, I wondered if I could convince you to turn one of your notebook flipping demos into a gtk-demo example ?19:43
* ArneGoetje needs to sleep19:46
pittiArneGoetje: ah, tomorrow then; sleep well!19:47
* kenvandine runs out for a bit, be back tonight!20:01
didrocksmclasen: it would be cool :) but again, the code is quite a hack atm and if we really want to implement such things, we will have to rewrite some part of gtk-clutter at leat (atm, a GtkClutter can only be binded to a GTKContainer which can be parented to a GTK Container itself!) So, we've to fix that first20:05
didrocksmclasen: also, there is some concerns about not having the tab rotating itself (which can be difficult to achieve with the current GTK Notebook component)20:05
mclasendidrocks: ah, if this uses clutter, it is not really suitable as drop-in for gtk-demo anyway20:06
mclasenI thought this was done manually, like alex' rotation example20:06
didrocksmclasen: alex' rotation was using gtk-clutter too, no? (if you speak about this demo: http://blogs.gnome.org/alexl/2009/06/12/the-return-of-client-side-windows/)20:08
didrocks"This is using the current client-side-windows branch of Gtk+, plus my own gtk-in-clutter code availible in the client-side-window branch of http://gitorious.org/clutter-gtk-copy."20:09
mclasendidrocks: theres a testoffscreen in the gtk tree that does not use any clutter20:10
didrocksmclasen: I'm using his modified gtk-clutter binding so, I guess it can uses offline screen too (I'm not really aware of that part)20:13
mclasenwell, nice demos, anyway...20:13
didrocksthanks :)20:13
