[00:01] but yeah, there is also hardcoded paths in yelp too (and all the omf files have a hardcoded path as well) [00:10] robert_ancell, good morning [00:10] rickspencer3_, hi rick [00:35] robert_ancell: kenvandine: now that the session menu is in, should we not clean up the system menu? [00:36] rickspencer3, ? [00:36] hehe [00:36] robert_ancell: never mind [00:37] I'll follow up next week [00:37] but we shouldn't have all the shutdown options in the session menu and the system menu [00:37] rickspencer3, is the session menu the fusa? [00:39] yes, what was until so recently called the fus [00:39] fusa [00:47] What calls xsplash? [00:48] And is there a way for the caller of xsplash to be told what images to use, now that xsplash supports command-line flags to tell it what images to use? [01:11] TheMuso - it's called from a GDM script [01:14] chrisccoulson: Yeah just found it. === rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk [03:09] bryce, i try to not use p.u.c since it's never in sync for a dev release. always refer to launchpad [06:30] robert_ancell: Afaik libcanberra is not covered by the GNOME freeze exception. [06:30] So it will nee an FFE. [06:30] need [06:30] TheMuso, ah, ok. Where is the freeze exception specified? [06:31] robert_ancell: I put a link in the bug. I replied not yet knowing that you assigned it to me. :) [06:31] TheMuso, I was about to do it and then saw you tend to make that release [06:33] robert_ancell: again as I said in the bug, I think we're better off pulling any important patches we need from trunk. 0.16 also introduces a new symbol/API function. [06:33] So unless a piece of gnome will use that, I think we're better off leaving it for now. [06:33] ok [06:34] On the other hand, the list of changes is quite short, and its only just after FF, so we could still probably get it in rather easily. [06:34] But I don't see the real need atm. [06:38] good morning [06:39] robert_ancell: IIRC gimp is not part of core gnome - it might need an ubuntu-release ACK [06:40] I'll just subscribe them to the bug [06:40] dholbach, thanks. Where is the list of what is excepted? [06:40] good question - the core gnome desktop is excepted [06:40] seb128 would know what is and what isn't [06:40] gimp, gthumb - stuff like that isn't [06:41] at least as well as I remember from "back then" :) [06:41] are the libraries included or just applications? [06:41] included [07:00] robert_ancell: afaik if it's in one of the gnome release sets (desktop, platform, bindings, development) and included in the default install it has a FFE [07:00] not sure for things not in the default install like epiphany [07:01] Amaranth: ah, thanks [07:01] robert_ancell: do you have a way to reproduce bug 153676? [07:01] Launchpad bug 153676 in compiz "New windows placed with focus behind fullscreen window" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/153676 [07:02] err, not that one [07:02] ... [07:03] robert_ancell: bug 165161 [07:03] Launchpad bug 165161 in compiz "Compiz places transient dialogs behind currently focused window" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/165161 [07:05] Amaranth: seb128 knows some good ones but you can do it by trying to install software from the software-store [07:05] oh, that is packaged? [07:05] yes [07:08] robert_ancell: seems it doesn't happen all the time :/ [07:08] Amaranth: yes, I see the same thing :( [07:08] ok, will look at that a bit tomorrow [07:08] I've only done some little stuff in that area of compiz though [07:10] dholbach, can you explain the shlibs setting? I don't think I've been setting them correctly [07:10] Good morning [07:10] chrisccoulson: right, /omf/ too; ugh [07:10] robert_ancell: if public interfaces get added you bump the shlibs [07:11] hey robert_ancell [07:11] and what uses that information? [07:11] hey pitti [07:11] robert_ancell: so if something links against the library in a new build the new version information is picked up [07:11] dholbach, robert_ancell: just for your interest, symbol files are a bit more modern and precise [07:11] (I didn't follow the entire conversation, though) [07:12] pitti: you're right [07:12] so should we be migrating shlibs to symbol files? [07:12] if you want [07:12] old .shlibs files works as well still [07:12] but with symbols files the package build will remind you of new symbols [07:12] it makes sense to coordinate that with debian [07:12] so it's less guesswork and you are less prone to forget about the shlibs files [07:13] robert_ancell: so I'm not saying "we should migrate" for the sake of it, just pointing out that they exist [07:13] matter of preference mainly [07:13] pitti, I'm just looking for a one true way to do things so I don't have to know two ways :) [07:14] robert_ancell: FWIW, I usually prefer symbols files nowadays [07:14] since I also always forgot to bump the shlibs files [07:14] now lintian checks it for me :) [07:14] and dh_shlibdeps can calculate the precise dependencies according to which symbols a package actually uses [07:15] sounds good to me [07:28] robert_ancell: can you please push your gnome-power-manager upload to bzr? [07:30] pitti, there should be a branch on the report - I couldn't upload to the main branch as i'm not in the power team [07:30] robert_ancell: oh, we really ought to change the owner [07:31] pitti, shall i push it to ~ubuntu-desktop and update the control file? [07:31] robert_ancell: hang on, I try to change the existing one [07:31] k [07:32] robert_ancell: changed; yes, please push now and change Vcs-Bzr: [07:33] robert_ancell: stop [07:33] robert_ancell: while I'm at it, let's also rename it to "ubuntu" [07:33] "trunk" is not really justified IMHO [07:33] pitti, and can we change the project name from gnome-power to gnome-power-manager? [07:33] Ubuntu Desktop already has a branch for gnome-power called ubuntu [07:33] oh, we have? [07:34] https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-power/ubuntu [07:34] ah, that's correct then [07:34] seems you already pushed it there [07:35] robert_ancell: I deleted the old "trunk" branch [07:35] I did :) [07:36] robert_ancell: ok, let's use lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-power/ubuntu from now on [07:36] robert_ancell: you can delete lp:~robert-ancell/gnome-power/ubuntu then (and probably lp:~robert-ancell/gnome-power/bug-419637, too) [07:37] * pitti -> breakfast [07:38] hmm, lp is timing out === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [08:15] morning everybody :) [08:15] hey didrocks [08:16] hey pitti, have you finally succeeded in all MIR reviewing? :) [08:16] kenvandine: evo-couchdb seeded now, so we'll see it soon in component-mismatches [08:16] didrocks: not in all, but at least all assigned to me [08:17] still some 20 eucalyptus ones outstanding as well, though [08:17] waow... it seems that eucalyptus brings a lot of components [08:18] ..and pain and suffering :) [08:18] I believe you :) [08:40] didrocks: once ttx is done with that, java packaging will be easy because we have all java modules in the archive already ;-) [08:59] pitti, what do we do about API changes like in bug 419631?

[10:35] huats, I've been away for over a week if you didn't notice [10:35] I have [10:36] but I mean you are still on holidays (and come back monday ?) [10:42] hey seb128! [10:42] aren't you meant to be on holiday still? ;) [10:42] hey chrisccoulson [10:42] hum, seem people are not happy to see me around [10:43] of course we are - just a little unexpected;) [10:43] well I was away one week and was enjoying some catching up with desktop world [10:43] I don't see anything wrong with that ;-) [10:43] especially that the versions page has an outdated overflow [10:44] yeah, i really need to do some updates this week [10:45] it seems robert_ancell did most of them overnight ;) [10:46] chrisccoulson, 'most of them', there is still over a screen of outdated versions there looking at the lists [10:47] yeah, i'll try and look at some of those today [10:48] now that quickly 0.2 is released an FF in charge, I can do some of them :) [10:52] seb128 - i've got to the bottom of this gnome-settings-daemon crash which is causing so many duplicates [10:52] chrisccoulson, oh, good, what was it? [10:53] well, I think part of it is a Xorg bug, as it is returning the wrong error [10:53] but I need to speak to bryce about that [10:54] but basically what happens is - xsplash gets focus when the window manager loads, then it gets destroyed, and when you open another window which takes focus, libxklavier does XGetWindowProperty on the non-existant window [10:55] which should return BadWindow, but it doesn't because another client created a pixmap in the mean-time which gets the same ID as what the xsplash window hd [10:55] s/hd/had [10:55] and that messes things up :-/ [10:57] ok, I see [10:57] rock [10:58] new rhythmbox without hal, and media-player-id working [10:58] hey pitti [10:58] hey chrisccoulson [11:00] is there a bug for 'removable media doesn't get automounted' already?

[11:03] rodrigo_: correct [11:03] that's why I think I might missing some package, since in jhbuild it works [11:03] anyway, running ubuntu-bug...

[12:45] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/PolicyKitOneMigration [12:45] ^^^james_w [12:45] that's not just for the default install though [12:45] told you :-0 [12:45] AFAIK, it's just HAL, hplip and NM [12:45] james_w: basically, hplip; [12:46] james_w: network-manager is done in upstream trunk, hal is a wontfix [12:46] packagekit [12:46] and indicator-session is being taken care of [12:46] james_w: right, but that's not in the default install [12:46] and kubuntu doesn't have a PK-1 GUI yet [12:46] pitti, newed now [12:46] ah [12:46] seb128: merci [12:46] de rien [12:46] libgnomekbd and gedit-plugins updated now:) [12:46] but they might have a mixed old/new polkit on the CD? [12:46] james_w: I don't think that Kubuntu has any PK-1 stuff right now [12:47] they certainly don't use polkit-gnome-authorization though :-) [12:47] chrisccoulson, you can probably upload the second? [12:47] seb128 - done [12:47] :) [12:47] the only thing that would use it is jockey-kde, and I worked around that by calling the GUI as root [12:47] chrisccoulson, cool ;-) [12:47] nice [12:47] I'll say it again, pitti: you rock [12:48] james_w: and so do you! [12:48] so, should we just disable polkit-gnome-authorization now then, or maybe split it in to a separate package? [12:48] (it's part of policykit-gnome now) [12:48] james_w: it's a pity that we have to leave both the hal and PK migration 90% done in karmic, but at least that gives us a good start for LL [12:48] yeah [12:49] I'll take a look at hplip if I have a free weekend between now and release [12:49] I doubt it though :-) [12:50] oh, did you see a mail on advice for shipping a default distro policy from David a couple of weeks ago?

[15:18] pitti - what shall we do about the transmission update now we are post FF? the new upstream version is only bug-fixes, but... [15:19] ...debian have enabled the QT front-end too (which is already in the current source tarball). If we ,erge with Debian, do we want the QT frontend, or shall we just leave that out for now? [15:19] kenvandine: i-s> if we get a commitment that it gets fixed soon, I think so; what is it blocking on right now (the MIR)? [15:19] /,erge/merge [15:19] chrisccoulson: we can always leave it in universe if desired [15:19] so if it's bug-fix only for the gtk package, it's fine [15:19] yeah... i will get tedg to commit to fixing it by beta :) [15:19] pitti - ok, i'll take a look at that unless someone else has already done work on it [15:20] don't we need a FFe for the QT part though? [15:21] chrisccoulson: we probably do, but herewith you have it [15:21] it's just a new universe package, right? and less effort than to disable it [15:21] pitti - ok, i'll take a look at that. a FFe for transmission should be easy to justify - charles is very responsive and active around here [15:22] so if there are any bugs, i'm sure he'll fix them quickly;) [15:23] pitti - would you mind unsubscribing u-m-s from bug 406103 for now?

[15:39] pitti, bury it :) [15:48] mvo: is it okay if I assign bug 391555 to you? it has a plethora of dupes [15:48] Launchpad bug 391555 in gnome-app-install "gnome-app-install crashed with AttributeError in itemIsInstalled()" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/391555 [15:48] pitti: I have a look [15:49] chrisccoulson, thanks for looking into that [15:49] kklimonda - no problem [15:49] not sure when i'll finish it yet though;) [15:50] i'll use the packaging work you've already done, and the work on the FFe [15:53] xsplash really doesn't cope well with resolution changes :-/ [15:53] is xsplash running as root still, or as the user? [15:59] should run as gdm now [16:00] pitti - thanks. [16:01] how do I build a package from a bzr branch with just the debian/ dir? [16:01] rodrigo_: does it have a .bzr-builddeb/ dir? [16:01] (usually) [16:01] yes [16:01] yay, gconf is done:) [16:01] bzr bd -S -> source package, bzr bd -- -b -> binaries [16:02] ah, cool [16:02] rodrigo_: or, if you want to edit it, bzr bd-do is useful, too; throws you into a 'normal' tree that you can edit, and exit 0 will copy back the debian/ changes [16:03] ok [16:05] rodrigo_: /usr/share/doc/bzr-builddeb/README.gz has the details [16:05] great [16:06] that's easier than apt-get-source + .... [16:10] can anyone apply debdiff at this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-user-dirs/+bug/204567 [16:10] Launchpad bug 204567 in hundredpapercuts "Downloads should go to ~/Downloads" [High,In progress] [16:10] it has been waiting there for a long time and goes back to the behaviour of upstream [16:13] davidbarth: I updated the DX bits on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus, but not completely; could you please update the remaining bits? [16:14] dapper is not supported on the desktop anymore is it? [16:16] correct [16:16] mvo, just sent you a draft announcement, could you review it before I send it out to ubuntu-desktop@? [16:16] * mpt wonders if it should go to ubuntu-devel@ as well, or instead [16:17] rickspencer3: I just spend a lot of time to update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus TTBOMK; since nobody from desktop team can be in the release meeting tomorrow, would you mind giving this an once-over, so that at least the two of us are on the same state? [16:17] mpt: I have a look now [16:17] ta [16:18] pitti, np [16:18] * rickspencer3 reads [16:20] pitti: if you want to add the "default application priorities", you can mark it as POSTPONED as we are still in discussion with xdg [16:23] didrocks: oh, there are many specs which aren't on that page; this is just for major structural changes which are big enough to be on the release team radar [16:23] I tought that one was too far down the stack for that [16:23] didrocks: but either way, I'll update the blueprint accordingly, thanks [16:23] pitti: oh ok. I thought you were putting a status on every UDS discussed spec [16:30] mvo, does it look ok? [16:32] mpt: looks great [16:32] mvo, ubuntu-desktop@ or ubuntu-devel@ or both? [16:32] mpt: feel free to revert the order of: [16:32] Michael Vogt, lead engineer [16:32] Matthew Paul Thomas, lead designer [16:32] it was you writing the mail afterall :) [16:32] ok :-) [16:32] probably both [16:32] kenvandine: can you please have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus, the "DX integration" bits and update it to the current word of the day (or tell me what to change)? [16:33] sure [16:34] kenvandine: thanks [16:34] mpt: adding of third party repositories (just the whitelisted stuff as g-a-i) is almost ready btw [16:34] neat [16:35] mpt: do you have a opinion about removals? i.e. what if removing a package causes the removal of e.g. ubuntu-desktop - should we warn? or error? or just do ? [16:35] mvo, what other common examples of that are there? ubuntu-desktop is kind of a speshul case [16:35] pitti, can xsplash me marked as done? it is feature complete but waiting on more artwork? [16:35] kenvandine: ah, nice "DONE" flood [16:35] kenvandine: sure, please just update it as you see fit, you know this stuff much better than me [16:36] pitti: hey [16:36] kenvandine: (done flood for work items) [16:36] kenvandine: let's see how tomorrow's CDs explode :) [16:36] hey mat_t [16:36] pitti, any chance you could refresh the burndown? [16:36] * rickspencer3 is too impatient to wait an hour [16:36] * pitti cranks [16:36] mpt: I need to run a analyzer to be certain, but I assume most of the current apps we offer to not result in removal other stuff, its mostly top-level applications anyway [16:37] ubuntu-desktop is a exception of course [16:37] pitti: when is the best time for us to look into usplash theming? [16:37] rickspencer3: done [16:37] AWESOME! [16:37] just about to hit the trend line [16:37] !!! [16:38] good job deskrop team! :) [16:38] desktop even! [16:38] ;) [16:38] if we removed asac's "browsers" blueprint, we would be below, I think [16:38] mat_t: rather ealier than later; UI freeze is in two weeks [16:38] rickspencer3: let's keep that boost for next week; let's not spend all our trumps on one day :-P [16:38] desktop team rooolz! [16:38] pitti, lol [16:38] mpt: btw, I subscribed you to some bugs that are about design decisions in the spec. is that something I should do? or should I rather close them and point people to the spec? [16:38] pitti: cool, I'm ready anytime - just let me know when is best for you [16:38] mvo, so maybe we could use a special-case warning for ubuntu-desktop, and just send people to Synaptic for anything else (after all, as far as the Store 1.0 is concerned, there's no such thing as a non-application package) [16:39] * rickspencer3 retracts statement [16:39] mvo, I just subscribed to Bugs for the package, so you won't need to do that any more [16:39] mat_t: well, this week is so crazy, just ask [16:39] mpt: yeah, that behaviour is fine with me [16:39] mpt: a warning is maybe enough? or just refusing it outright? [16:39] pitti: how about I'll ping you some time tomorrow [16:40] mat_t: I won't be here tomorrow (I'll be at a wedding), I swapped with Sunday [16:40] mat_t: what are you currently planning to do? I understand this might depend a lot on the fate and state of xplash in karmic, too? [16:40] pitti: well, yes and no [16:42] pitti: basically we're removing the progress bar and replacing the artwork with the simple logo in the middle. We also talked in Dublin about fading in and out using color-palette swap [16:42] hmm, guess seb128 isn't coming back after all [16:42] Amaranth: officially he is one leave [16:42] ah, still? [16:43] he was here earlier and said he would be back in a bit [16:43] mvo, announcement sent [16:43] ok, I'll turn this patch into a branch and see if someone will upload it for me :) [16:43] thanks mpt [16:43] Amaranth: what package? [16:43] gnome-panel [16:43] mvo, well, let's see if we can come up with coherent warning text [16:43] mat_t: right, I still have that half-done branch for fading (not using palette, though, since it's using 16 bit colors, not 8) [16:44] mpt: maybe something like "this application is considered part of your core system, do you really want to remove it"? [16:44] mvo, first shot: "If you uninstall , upgrading later to a future version of Ubuntu may not work properly. Are you sure you want to continue?" [16:44] mpt: I guess that is a bit technical still [16:44] I sent a patch upstream over a year ago to make scrolling the mouse wheel on the workspace switcher work in compiz, want to at least get it in Ubuntu :) [16:44] Amaranth, yeah! [16:45] do you have a bug that I can subscribe someone too? [16:45] hm, "future"->"later", because you might be using a non-current version [16:45] Amaranth: sure, if its in a branch I have a look [16:45] dx-karmic-os-switcher: not started <--- with the switch to GRUB2 and new boot splash what will be the method to switch to other OSs [16:45] I think vuntz hasn't done anything with it because he wants to rewrite libwnck to do WnckWorkspace with WnckVirtualDesktop and WnckViewport backends so code using it doesn't have to care [16:45] rickspencer3: just upstream [16:46] tgpraveen1, mat_t or dbarth are the people to answer that question [16:46] and if i want to make say windows the default os to boot in is there a method without using CLI? [16:46] mvo: getting it into a branch now, will let you know in a bit :) [16:46] mat_t: dx-karmic-os-switcher: not started <--- with the switch to GRUB2 and new boot splash what will be the method to switch to other OSs [16:46] mpt: right, I think part of the problem is the upgrades, part is that it might be stuff the user wants, but is not aware of. stuff like "the panel" - if he has no idea what that is, he may accidentially want to remove it [16:47] mpt: or do you think its too hard to capture both problems in a single sentence? [16:47] thanks Amaranth [16:47] mvo, well that doesn't matter so much for 1.0, because the system stuff is mostly not stuff with .desktop files [16:48] though that does remind me we need to special-case people uninstalling the Software Store itself :-) [16:48] but for version 2+, it will be an issue [16:48] mpt: :) [16:48] it has been waiting there for a long time and goes back to the behaviour of upstream [16:48] oops [16:48] mvo, second shot: " is a core application in Ubuntu. Uninstalling it may cause future upgrades to be incomplete. Are you sure you want to continue?" want to continue?" [16:49] can anyone apply debdiff at this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-user-dirs/+bug/204567 it solves a papercut and is inline with upstream [16:49] Launchpad bug 204567 in hundredpapercuts "Downloads should go to ~/Downloads" [High,In progress] [16:49] mvo, minus those last three words of course [16:49] mpt: I like that [16:49] mpt: I will add it [16:49] mvo, ok, and I'll spec it [16:50] kenvandine: is anything major wrt. indicator still planned for alpha-5? (currently the list of intrusive changes is empty) [16:50] thanks mpt [16:50] nothing major [16:50] pitti, there is a round of indicator refreshes coming now [16:50] which includes adding launchers to the indicators [16:50] tgpraveen1: same as now - hold ESC to access grub menu [16:50] kenvandine: ok, thanks [16:50] dang, have to do an upgrade to satisfy dependencies, this may take a bit [16:51] kenvandine: could you stand in for me on tomorrow's release team meeting at 1500 UTC? I have a swap day with Sunday, need to go to a wedding [16:51] kenvandine: the report should be pretty complete (it's the wiki page), but there might be some questions coming up, and I think you have a pretty good overview what's going on [16:52] mat_t: isnt this a huge regression for people who use ubuntu as a secondary OS? as soon as one installs ubuntu it takes over the system. right now atleast we get the grub menu with a selection of installed OS [16:52] kenvandine: so it's mainly about collecting questions, answer the ones you know, and distribute the ones you don't know [16:52] mvo : what is the best thing I could do to help with software-store, I have run out of bugs to file :-) [16:52] but with this new system new users might even get confused that ubuntu has taken over and windwos is lost [16:52] pitti, yeah [16:53] kenvandine: ok, thanks; I'll send you the necessary stuff [16:53] thx pitti! [16:53] mvo, "Remove Anyway" for the commit button [16:53] kenvandine: erm, for pushing work to you? :_) [16:53] kenvandine: thanks for covering [16:53] rugby471: depends on what you like to do :) there is plenty of stuff in the spec that is not done yet. if you like python, the animation button or the different open modes might be nice [16:54] * Amaranth wonders what the point of a scrollbar is in synaptic if you can't scroll up [16:54] pitti, can you sponsor bug 419997 ? [16:54] Launchpad bug 419997 in indicator-messages "Update to upstream 0.2.0" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/419997 [16:54] Amaranth: hm? [16:54] mvo: when it's downloading packages [16:54] mvo: every time the percentage changes it forces it back to the bottom [16:54] Amaranth: heh :) yeah, that is a bit sub-optimal :( [16:54] can anyone sponsor : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-user-dirs/+bug/204567 [16:54] Launchpad bug 204567 in hundredpapercuts "Downloads should go to ~/Downloads" [High,In progress] [16:55] mvo: it should just say what it is doing with some labels and progress bars and when it finishes a download show the next one [16:55] mvo: cool, I shall have a look [16:55] mpt: the “Where Is It?” button is really a great idea. Not sure it's realistic with current technology but great in theory (you are speaking about the real top panel application menu, right?) :) [16:55] didrocks, yes [16:55] tgpraveen1: yes, it's not perfect atm, should be a lot better when we have "proper" OS switcher in Karmic +1 [16:55] didrocks, I was hoping you might see that section ;-) [16:55] rugby471: the animation icon in the pending view is also a nice target, that one should be fun (but I don't know if we have icons for the animation yet) [16:56] mpt: let me think a couple of days about it and make some research, we'll see if an idea can come :) [16:56] cool [16:57] mpt: latest update has a better option > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-store/+bug/419295/comments/4 [16:57] Launchpad bug 419295 in software-store ""Price: Free" in every software description sounds cheesy and is redundant!" [Undecided,Confirmed] [16:58] didrocks, meanwhile, a much simpler animation I think would help would be for the home view to slide off the left and the category view to slide on from the right, whenever you navigate to a category, and the reverse when you navigate back to the top level [16:58] didrocks, and the same for navigating into an individual application view [17:00] mpt: that's not seem complicated. I have to check what and how widgets are currently implemented (if any) and make some tests. [17:00] neat [17:00] I'll add a mini-spec for each of those to the wiki page shortly [17:00] * didrocks schedules that for next week (too busy this week-end) :) [17:01] mpt: yes, please :) [17:01] thanks :-) [17:02] mpt: mvo: progress icon? is that OK? > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareStore/Icons [17:04] mac_v, it's pretty good [17:04] * Amaranth grumbles about debconf junk popping up [17:04] and then freezing :/ [17:04] mpt: ok... i'll write up a bug report and add the full animation [17:04] oh, it was updating initramfs [17:05] mac_v: can you put link to bug report here in channel? [17:06] mac_v, thanks heaps for helping out with that. Unfortunately there's some boring legal stuff to go through if you haven't signed the Contributor Agreement before. [17:06] mvo, hmmm, if you're going to allow removal of ubuntu-desktop, how much extra effort to allow removal of any other metapackage? [17:06] rugby471: i havent written it yet , first i need to complete the animation once done i'll write it... [17:06] ah [17:06] ok then [17:06] mpt: none, I mean, the code that checks that can check for any package [17:06] mpt: dont worry i wont sue Canonical ;) , but sure i'll sign it [17:07] mpt: should it be a dialog or do you want to detect it in advance (i.e. label the button before the user clicked on it) [17:07] mvo, except having a separate warning message [17:07] mpt: ok [17:07] mvo, ooh, nice idea, like a (!) emblem of something [17:07] * Amaranth thinks gnome-panel's build system is a little broken [17:07] of->of [17:07] garrrrr [17:07] CC [17:07] of->or [17:08] I just get a bunch of lines of that instead of the file name too [17:08] eh, it built [17:10] mvo, is it fair to say that the purpose of metapackages is always to let the metapackage maintainer direct the installation of new packages later without the user having to choose them specifically? [17:10] Or is there some other reason for them? [17:10] mpt: that is one (big) reason, I personally think of them also as what defines your desktop. the apps selected there are what makes the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu [17:13] mvo, so for the non-ubuntu-desktop case I'm thinking something like: "If you uninstall you will no longer receive new software that is part of the ”” set. Are you sure you want to continue?" [17:13] That's a bit ambiguous though, specifically what "new" means [17:13] it means new packages, not new versions of already-installed packages [17:14] mpt: just to clarify for progress icon , what size icon are you using in the left pane for the rest? [17:14] mac_v, I don't know (ask mvo), but you have it as a vector, right? [17:15] mpt: yes svg ,vector imag [17:15] image* [17:15] mvo: just to clarify for progress icon , what size icon are you using in the left pane for the rest? [17:15] mac_v: currently its 32px [17:16] ah... ok thanx :) [17:16] ... "If you uninstall , future upgrades will not include new items in the “” set. Are you sure you want to continue?" [17:16] that's a bit better [17:17] mpt: ok, I run a tool over the desktop data tomorrow (need to write it first ;) that checks about the possible removals to see how broad the scope of the problem is [17:20] mvo, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareStore?action=diff&rev2=116&rev1=115 [17:23] rugby471: by when do you want the bug report for the icon? [17:23] just when you file it :-) [17:23] I am working on getting the icon on there [17:23] in the mean time I can always use an alternate one, no pressure for time [17:24] mvo: if I have a quick patch, can I submit it here? (using pastebin) [17:24] rugby471: icon for the progress? then why [17:24] dont you write the bug report i'll atach it later [17:24] attach* [17:24] sure [17:25] rugby471: sure [17:25] cool [17:25] rugby471: notify me once you write it ;) [17:26] sure [17:27] mac_v: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-store/+bug/420028 [17:27] Launchpad bug 420028 in software-store "Pending/In Progress view needs icon" [Undecided,New] [17:28] rugby471: thanx , but what about the icon? WIP? [17:28] sorry? [17:29] rugby471: i thought you said you were making an icon? or did i understand wrong? [17:29] I thought you were making the icon, I am simple writing the code to put it in the sidebar [17:29] hehe :-) [17:30] rugby471: yes , i'm making the icon ;) [17:30] kl [17:30] rugby471: ok.. great , now , i need to know a bit about the code? have you written it yet? can i have a look , so that get the animation correct without jerks [17:31] so that i* [17:31] not yet, nearly there hopefully [17:31] wow [17:32] 1 year old pushes one or two buttons on my computer and it went crazy for 5 minutes [17:32] compiz crashing, metacity crashing, apps going fullscreen and back over and over [17:32] mac_v: damn it, I thought gtk would just handle an animation, turns out it doesn't [17:32] hehe [17:33] rugby471: check out how nautilus handles progress-working [17:33] oh good I think I found something here - http://faq.pygtk.org/index.py?req=edit&file=faq23.037.htp [17:33] mac_v: I would but C is very foreign to me :-) [17:34] ;) [17:34] mvo: making sure it still builds after I committed then I'll push the branch [17:35] Amaranth: :) [17:35] rugby471: firefox seems to be doing it with a .gif , might wanna confirm with mvo , how he wants it done [17:35] Amaranth: I need to leave for dinner for some minutes anyway [17:35] mac_v: I don't mind as long as it spins :) [17:35] hrm, was afraid of that [17:35] dang kids pushing buttons on my computer [17:36] it killed my build and made my computer crazy [17:36] gif seems the way to go give me a min and I could have it [17:36] Amaranth: no worries, I will be back [17:36] mvo : any idea why software-store doesn't exit cleanly? [17:36] rugby471: what is it doing for you? [17:36] it keeps running [17:36] just with a non-zero exit code? [17:37] dunno, it just keeps running in the terminal and I have to do Ctrl-C to exit [17:37] uh, missing delete event I guess [17:37] * mvo looks [17:37] exit > stop the process [17:37] i thought so [17:38] pitti, can you also sponsor bug 420034 [17:38] Launchpad bug 420034 in gwibber "Update to 2.0.0 snapshot" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/420034 [17:38] mac_v & mvo: just off to have dinner === rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk [17:39] rugby471: fixed in bzr [17:39] Riddell: if you have a minute, could you please update the kubuntu bits on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus? I can't be on the release meeting tomorrow [17:41] mvo: when you get back: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~amaranth/gnome-panel/scroll_with_viewports [17:42] * Amaranth tries to think of remaining differences in behavior when compiz is running [17:43] show desktop works differently, can't drag windows between viewports from workspace switcher [17:43] I think that's about it other than intentional differences [17:45] pitti: done. I can't be at the release meeting either [17:45] Riddell: cheers [17:45] Amaranth: from a first glance the patch looks ok, I have a closer look later (not sure if seb will jump on me or not if I just commit it ;) - so maybe I wait until tomorrow [17:46] * mvo -> dinner [17:46] mvo: alright [17:46] hey pitti - i just saw your mail about moving documentation [17:46] have you done any work on this yet, other than stripping the translations out? [17:47] chrisccoulson: yes, I have a script to pull them from launchpad and download them [17:47] chrisccoulson: and the current karmic pkgbinarymangler creates the tarballs (but doesn't strip them yet) [17:48] chrisccoulson: but I didn't touch rarian et all yet, I wanted to check for alternative solutions first [17:48] chrisccoulson: so far, lool's idea of replacing them with symlinks clearly beats adding 50 Replaces: [17:48] yeah, i suppose that's slightly better === andreasn_ is now known as andreasn [17:55] mpt: mvo: rugby471: the problem with gif is , you have color restrictions , 256 , might not look as good on output === rickspencer3-afk is now known as rickspencer3 [17:56] Isn't there something in GTK/GDK/whatever that blits vector images as an animation? oy [17:56] pitti, and notify-osd is ready to be sponsored, bug 420046 [17:56] Launchpad bug 420046 in notify-osd "Update to latest upstream version, 0.9.19" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/420046 [17:56] andreasn: could you clarify^ what mpt said [17:57] there is some code in nautilus that animate stuff from stills inside one image [17:58] mpt: the question came up because rugby471 wanted to do it the old firefox way and use gif instead of png or svg [17:58] but I don't know if there is something inside GTK+ itself [17:58] the code to do animations with multi-frame PNG/SVG is pretty trivial with GtkImage/GdkPixbuf [17:58] dobey: I am not that good at the olf gtkImage suff, could you have a look? [17:59] look at what? [17:59] software-store [17:59] we need a progress icon in a treeview (an animation) [18:00] heh, i just removed some code from ubuntuone-client-applet to do the animated icon, like 2 weeks ago [18:00] could you put it in a pastebin? [18:01] no, it was a bit spread out amongst the rest of the code in the applet [18:01] oh [18:02] oh well [18:02] basically you just need to calculate the frames in the PNG/SVG, and loop through the frames, setting the pixbuf as the image in the treeview [18:02] I am having some trouble with making a listsotre with gtk images for one of the collumn [18:02] * mpt -> home [18:02] it won't show [18:03] thanks for your work mac_v and rugby471 [18:03] thats fine [18:03] mpt: np [18:06] rugby471: you might wanna have a look at firefox 3.0 code , it uses png for the throbber [18:07] kl [18:14] pitti: yes, will update that tomorrow morning with the latest on bug fixes listed there [18:24] wahooo!!! [18:24] mac_v: step one towards animation, complete :-) [18:27] nice :) [18:28] try and do it as a gif, however if it is too crappy, we shall try to it with seperate files [18:30] i don't think GtkCellRendererPixbuf supports animated images (gif/apng/etc) [18:34] there's a progress cell renderer in gtk, and there's spinner cell renderers floating around [18:46] rugby471: apng would be better , pls dont use gif ,it uses crappy color support [18:48] i would say its better to check out how it can be done that to use a crappy gif [19:10] dobey: just an idea , why does the network manager applet use multiple png while animating the re-connection? can similar be done in software store?[several separate images] [19:13] i don't know why nm uses multiple PNGs [19:13] you can put all the frames in one PNG [19:14] davidbarth: thanks; Ken already did some updates as well [19:14] dobey: GtkCellRendererPixbuf doesn't, however I found a script that makes a gtkimage cell renderer and now it does work (only with gifs at the moment) [19:15] you don't know whether it supports apng or somethign similiar does it? [19:17] if it's a CellRenderPixbufAnimated then it supports whatever GdkPixbufAnimation supports, i would guess [19:17] what icon are you trying to use for the store? [19:17] yeah but do you know what formats that is :-) [19:17] well I have just tested apng, doesn't work [19:18] probably gif and gif [19:18] hehe [19:18] well gif definitely works [19:18] .gif and .ico [19:18] mclasen: thx [19:18] and bunch of frames [19:21] oh right, .ico [19:22] mclasen: i don't think there's a GdkPixbufAnimation module that handles bunch of frames is there? you have to do it manually since there's no timing info, right? [19:23] gdk_pixbuf_simple_anim_new [19:23] here is the current state of it :http://tinypic.com/r/20s84ms/3 (animation is actually smooth) [19:24] nm animates the applet by a set of 11 icons , couldnt a similar timer be set? [19:24] 11icons each for each of the 3 stages [19:51] bryce bug #419264 seems related to Intel drivers, can you take a look when you get a chance? [19:51] Launchpad bug 419264 in compiz "Uses 100% CPU with Intel drivers" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/419264 [19:57] rickspencer3, yeah been eyeing that one [19:57] bryce, seems spookily timed with mesa update [19:58] bryce, can you assign to yourself if you investigate? [20:01] rickspencer3, well not until a bit more information is collected; there's not enough data to know where it's failing. Once there is, I can send it upstream, it should be a priority for yingying if it's pinpointed to mesa === DrPepperKid is now known as MacSlow [20:02] bryce, right [20:02] I couldn't install the debug symbols because of some out of syncness in the repos [20:02] that's weird [20:03] compiz-core-dbgsym: Depends: compiz-core (= 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu8) but 1:0.8.3+git20090825-0ubuntu1 is to be installed [20:03] bryce, ^ [20:08] rickspencer3, what does 'apt-cache policy compiz-core' say? [20:09] rickspencer3, you might doublecheck if you have some ppa's set up that are trying to pull compiz git snapshots [20:09] here's what I get: [20:09] $ apt-cache policy compiz-core [20:09] compiz-core: [20:09] Installed: 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu15 [20:09] Candidate: 1:0.8.2-0ubuntu16 [20:10] huh [20:10] so it's curious where that git snapshot of compiz is coming from [20:10] I thought I removed the compiz ppa from sources [20:10] I'll try later [20:11] bryce, I assume you are not seeing the issue on your i965? [20:13] rickspencer3, yeah, compiz only takes about 2% cpu on my 965 [20:13] let me update to absolute latest just in case tho [20:15] gconfd is using up 25% cpu, that's a bit odd === rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk [20:23] see ya guys === pedro__ is now known as pedro_ === Richie is now known as YDdraigGoch === Richie is now known as YDdraigGoch === rickspencer3-afk is now known as rickspencer3 [23:33] fta: i'm working on the NM build failure from last night. should i just commit changes to the ubuntu.head branch? [23:33] awe, yes [23:34] fta: ok, i'll ping you if/when i land my changes. thanks! [23:34] fyi, it might be 1st thing tomorrow [23:37] awe, the bot runs at 7am CEST [23:37] that's 5am UTC [23:37] ok. do you automatically sync your daily build branch with ubuntu.head? [23:38] yes [23:38] ok, cool... that makes sense [23:38] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~fta/+junk/ppa-confs/annotate/head:/ppabot-pkgs-nmt.conf
