bdmurraycan somebody test installing http://people.canonical.com/~brian/tmp/firefox-lp-improvements_0.7-0ubuntu1~ppa1_all.deb for me?00:20
bdmurrayIt doesn't show up in my firefox add on's anymore...00:20
hggdhdoin git00:22
hggdhbdmurray, it shows in the add-ons, but I cannot select "preferences"00:25
hggdhwill try uninstalling & reinstalling00:25
hggdhno, cannot enable it00:28
bdmurraygreat00:29
hggdhin fact, every time I restart ffox and go to add-ons, I get a message stating I must restart ffox for the changes to take effect00:29
hggdhbut I did not change anything...00:29
hggdhthat's interesting -- I uninstalled it, and it still shows up in the add-ons00:34
bdmurrayhggdh: okay, I'm fairly certain I've discovered a work around00:41
bdmurrayhggdh: I've put a new version at the same url if you want to test it00:42
hggdhwhat is it?00:42
bdmurrayI think its something with mozilla-devscripts.  I built it on jaunty fine.00:42
bdmurraywell, what I mean is they both built fine but only the jaunty version is working00:43
hggdhbdmurray, it is the same version?00:43
bdmurrayyes, the package version of firefox-lp-improvements is the same00:43
hggdhk00:44
jjardonhello, Could someone take a look at this strange bug (maybe related to gtkspell, I'm not very sure): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/aspell/+bug/37997100:45
ubot4Launchpad bug 379971 in aspell "Turkish is always listed in GTK apps even when not installed" [Low,Triaged]00:45
jjardonSome people in #gtk channel told me that is not Ubuntu specific (he are using gentoo)00:45
hggdhbdmurray, I did install it, but it does not appear in the add-ons00:46
bdmurrayare you sure? it works for me00:46
hggdhnot here. But I think something else is broken on my FFox, so I am going to save the bookmarks & saved passwords, and create a new profile00:48
hggdhnope, did not work. I will revert to firefox 3.001:00
bdmurrayhmm01:01
bdmurrayhggdh: what's the md5sum of the package you installed?01:02
hggdhwill check01:02

bdmurrayhggdh: about?01:10
hggdhso it seems I *did* use the correct .deb, but why did it not work on first run?01:13

gotunandanhello, can this bug #423070 be marked as a 'wishlist' ?11:42

szczymhelo, could you please tell me to who i should ask for fixing bug #263442 ? thanx for info12:47
ubot4Launchpad bug 263442 in mc "mcedit is not longer the default editor" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/26344212:47
hggdhszczym, I do not know, but I will look. Probably this is a change inherited in Ubuntu from Debian/upstream13:05
szczymThat would be really cool, filks who love the mc also love the mcedit13:06
szczym*folks13:06
hggdh:-) yes, I would expect so13:07
szczymprobably its just small, tiny 1 bite config patch but it would make our lives so nicer any time we get to new box (we=mc lovers)13:08
hggdhszczym, if you want to, you can look at the source package, at bugs.debian.org, or upstream (wherever it is). This is what I intend to do13:09
szczymi will do so! but im not developer, so will get back to you, if you don`t mind hggdh13:10
hggdhno, no problem at all. I will be momentarily off, while I drive to my contract, then I will log in again13:11

micahgthanks16:57
szczymhggdh: I could not found any config settings about #263442 (im not C# guy) - could you have a look on it ?16:59
^arky^Hi, What does it mean when a bug has 'Nominated  for Karmic  by xxx'16:59
hggdhszczym, I will keep on looking for it. So far, a quick search on the git log does not show any intended change to disable the internal editor17:01
hggdh^arky^, it means someone thinks it should be fixed for (in this case) Karmic17:02
^arky^thanks hggdh17:02
szczymoky doky hggdh, thanx !17:02
hggdh^arky^, but it does not -- yet -- mean it *will*. The nomination has to be accepted17:02

hggdhmicahg, yes18:38

hggdhand the chat that followed it was also good :-)18:42
mac_vmicahg: COC twist? where in -classroom? did you give a talk now?19:04
hggdh:-)19:04
* mac_v would have liked an answer from hggdh than a sly smile ;p19:05
hggdh:-D19:06
hggdhmac_v, this was about the chat you and micahg had earlier (some 12 hours ago). I liked the way Micah explained the issue to you19:06
hggdh(and I hope you understood the point, BTW)19:07
mac_v;p19:07
hggdhbeing nice is difficult, and it is something we have to strive for.19:07
hggdhsometime ago I emailed our ML with a link to an email thread that shows a real nice response to an over-aggressive poster. Let me find it19:09
mac_vhggdh: that user , has been only active since when papercuts has started , always replies in huge mails and talks like he knows it all , and that the linux devs are stupid!19:11
mac_v<i'm not justifying myself>19:12
hggdhmac_v, I understand -- I followed the trail. Still, one should be polite on the answer.19:12
hggdhmac_v, and I am not picking on you. I myself have done the same before. It *is* difficult19:12
mac_vi agree :)19:12
mac_vhggdh:  he comments about it so much and in such detail , either he must know how to fix it and doesnt want to do it... and doesnt want to... or he is trying to prove a point that he is better :/19:14
mac_vfinal i lost it today :(19:15
hggdh:-D19:15
hggdhwe all lose it one day. What, nowadays, I do is get out of the keyboard for a while, before responding19:15
mac_vhehe , i dont minds rants , where users say why have you not fixed it... but his last comment was "Fix IT" ... i wont use linux..." thats what got me off ! :(19:17
mac_vi should have moved away from keyboard :(19:17
mac_vnot got me off! got me *pissed* off! ;p19:18
hggdh:-)19:18
* mac_v tires to forget about such crap and back to pleasant theme making :)19:20
mac_vhggdh: BTW the reply you sent to the ML?19:22
hggdhtrying to find it :-(19:26
hggdhwell, could not find it. But the email response that I loved is here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2009-07/msg00012.html19:29
hggdheven though the reporter was behaving like a righteous idiot, the response was absolutely civil. I am not sure I would be able to do it19:29
hggdhmac_v, ^^19:30
* mac_v reads19:31
mac_vhggdh: lol , did you read the reply to that mail! they dont realize that such mails are archived and can kick them in the ass later!19:33
hggdhheh19:45
hggdhthis is one of the reasons why we should be careful on what we write...19:45
micahgmac_v: when I have question about my tone in a response, I usually run it by hggdh or someone else to be sure I'm not going voerboard19:55
micahg*overboard19:55
mac_vmicahg: yeah , i'v noticed, once you asked asac if you had defended the mozilla team in the right way.19:59
