Tonio_hi00:21
Tonio_knetworkmanager just broke for me... is that known issue ? should I investigate ?00:22
Riddelllthere was a new version yesterday00:25
Tonio_Riddelll: I suspect this is the one I got today00:25
Doc_exesudo NetworkManager got network working for me again00:29
Doc_exehas something to do with the new startup scripts i believe00:29
Tonio_Doc_exe: then network is the problem I guess00:35
Tonio_networkmanager, sorry, so knetworkmanager might not by the guilty :)00:36
ScottKRiddelll: It is related to the chroots being broken.  The stack of packages needs to be upgraded together, but as soon as the first one was published, the chroots died.00:37
a|wenTonio_: how did it break? ... I restarted earlier today to use the new version of knetworkmanager; and that one has worked much better than the previous snapshot00:38
Riddella|wen: according to the above it broke by upstart being broken00:39
Tonio_a|wen: it's not knetworkmanager in fact00:41
Tonio_a|wen: it's networkmanager that doesn't start00:41
Tonio_a|wen: and I'm really happy to see that knetworkmanager seems to do real progress right now :)00:42
Tonio_a|wen: I'll look into this networkmanager issue, but it should get fixed soon I guess00:42
Tonio_amarok + covers = broken :/00:44
Tonio_well finds 1% of my covers...00:44
ScottKTonio_: How's kdebluetooth looking?00:45
Tonio_ScottK: like... crap00:45
Tonio_ScottK: there are some commits right now but it won't build...00:45
ScottKAny less crap than before?00:45
ScottKOh.00:45
Tonio_ScottK: I'm testing on a regular basis00:45
ScottKCool.00:46
Tonio_ScottK: as soon as there is some binary, I'll tell you00:46
ScottKOK.00:46
* ScottK needs to go for dinner.00:46
JontheEchidnaIt has seen some love (from a new maintainer) in svn, so hopefully it'll get better00:46
Tonio_ScottK: hum svn: Target path does not exist00:46
JontheEchidnawhoa, lag00:47
Tonio_ScottK: looks like it was moved over kde svn.... which means it's got an official maintainer, or was droped :)00:47
a|wenTonio_: okay ... well not-our-fault is good enough for this stage00:47
a|wenTonio_: yeah; it stopped crashing on resume ... and now works for WPA enterprise!00:47
JontheEchidnaa|wen: oh cool, so enterprise is really fixed now?00:48
JontheEchidnaTonio_: folder was moved: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/network/kbluetooth/00:48
JontheEchidnadropped the redundant 400:49
a|wenJontheEchidna: i was connected using WPA-enterprise TTLS/PAP at my university today :)00:49
JontheEchidna:)00:49
a|wenTonio_: kdebluetooth crashes for me on every resume; so as soon as you have a new snapshot count me in for testing00:50
JontheEchidnaI feel bad triaging KNM bugs without being able to test fixes, glad to hear it works now00:50
JontheEchidnaBugs aren't looking so bad, actually: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-networkmanagement00:50
JontheEchidnaNot too many serious ones left, and most of the others are upstreamed00:50
a|wenexactly ... it is looking pretty decent00:51
JontheEchidnaMobile broadband has never really worked well, so at least that's not a regression00:51
a|wenis VPN still completely broken; or is it time to start testing that if i get the chance?00:51
JontheEchidnathere has been efforts to fix that, too00:51
JontheEchidnas/has/have00:52
JontheEchidnalatest upload fixes vpnc connections, purportedly (can't test myself)00:52
Tonio_a|wen: yeah00:53
JontheEchidnaand openvpn connections should be working since a few updates ago. The only thing that's not there is pptp vpns00:53
a|wencool ... needs to find ways of testing some of that00:55
Tonio_a|wen: here is my issue with kdebluetooth01:02
Tonio_http://pastebin.ca/156770301:02
Tonio_a|wen: seen that already ? we probably have a packaging issue since we have the package, but cmake stuff lacks in it01:03
Tonio_a|wen: right, it should be fixed... that's a packaging issue01:04
a|wenTonio_: kdelibs-experimental contains the .so ... and probably also the uninstalled .cmake file01:05
Tonio_a|wen: it doesn't include the cmake file, we should add it to the -dev package01:06
Tonio_a|wen: I'm doing this right now01:07
a|wen:)01:07
shtylmanI don't know anymore...01:08
shtylmanI cannot for the life of me figure out this filepicker bug...01:08
shtylmanthere is voodoo magic that I just don't understand...01:09
a|wenshtylman: have you tried clearing the cache+tmp and re-login? just to be sure that it isn't that kind of magic happening01:12
shtylmana|wen: how do I clear? and you can try this yourself...open openoffice and open the filedialog ... with oxygen style there is no text near checkboxes or any right click menu...but with other styles there is!01:13
shtylmanI am just at a loss for what could be causing this...also...there is no "new folder" in the right click context menu...01:17
shtylmanalso...no idea...01:17
a|wenshtylman: okay, i agree ... that looks amazingly odd01:18
shtylmanyea...and I have NO IDEA why it happens...nor have the slightest clue where to really start digging...01:18
shtylmanthis is a high priority bug for me... and I have no idea :)01:19
a|wenlooks to be the completely wrong menu showing01:20
shtylmanthat is one problem... and then  another is with the text when using oxygen...01:22
shtylmanI just ... *sigh* ..01:22
shtylmanmany hours spent trying little things to no avail...01:22
a|wenpretty annoying when that happens01:25
shtylmanyea...very01:27
=== rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk
rgreeningScottK: any idea if there will be a way to fix the brokenness? I.e. via live disk and chroot or do I need a re-install?01:33
* a|wen goes to bed ... 'night ppl01:33
ScottKI think it's fixable, but I didn't follow the details.  Read the #ubuntu-devel logs for hints.01:33
ScottKGood night a|wen01:33
rgreeningty ScottK. I'll look01:33
ScottKTonio_: I think that means it got a real maintainer.  IIRC from ML discussion he was going to look into the Solid stuff too.01:36
Tonio_ScottK: yup afaik, the main problem for the UI is that the solid backend is very light atm01:41
ScottKSo progress at least.  How much, we'll see.01:42
Tonio_ScottK: should all uploads fix a bug right now ? even if it's just a list-missing issue in a package fixed ?01:43
ScottKTonio_: For Main?01:43
Tonio_yep01:44
ScottKFor Main, don't upload anything that doesn't fix a bug milestoned for Alpha 6 and even then ask first.01:44
ScottKI suspect that after today's chroot bustage they'll be grumpy about extra uploads.01:44
ScottKIt's already after we usually have the first test ISOs and we're no where close.01:45
Tonio_ScottK: I wasn't expecting to upload anything right now :)01:45
Tonio_ScottK: just that cause the freeze policy seems very.... changing, I'm asking :)01:45
rgreeningScottK: what's the correct process to chroot in live env under ubuntu? I have the partitions mounted, and I thought 'chroot /mnt was all I needed, but I think I need something else. yes/no?01:45
ScottKOK.  After Alpha 6 is out, you can upload any bugfix that doesn't break the U/I freeze.01:45
ScottKrgreening: No idea.01:46
rgreeningcrap01:46
Tonio_ScottK: but I need to declare the bug, right ?01:46
Tonio_that's my concern :)01:46
ScottKTonio_: It doesn't need to be an LP bug, it can just be an issue in the package.01:46
Tonio_s/declare/write01:46
Tonio_kk01:46
ScottKNo.01:46
ScottKFor a new bugfix release from upstream, that you need a LP bug for (for documentation)01:46
Tonio_6 month ago we had too... well maybe it was just post beta, but I seem to remember it was straight after the feature freeze01:47
* ScottK doesn't think so, but who knows.01:47
Tonio_ScottK: yeah that the standard ffe01:47
Tonio_let's say I'm tired01:47
rgreeninghmm... apparantly that works... I just can't run ifconfig or route to verify network. haha01:47
ScottKNo, bugfix release doesn't need an FFe, just the bug to document it.01:47
ScottKYou write the bug, but it doesn't need approval.01:48

Riddelllshtylman: well yes, surely you've seen it done lots12:53

ScottKagateau: It's the standard Kubuntu bzr branch on LP.14:01
agateauScottK: I mean in the upstream git14:01
ScottKagateau: There is a libindicate branch, but your stuff was (accidentally) merged into git head, so you should work from that.14:02
ScottKapachelogger: I think a|wen uses kile.14:02

nixternalany idea on how to get shit working today? my netbook is working cuz it isn't using encrypted drives15:36
jussi01nixternal: hurry up and wait? :D15:37
nixternalif that is the answer, as you are the only one who has responded thus far today, then i will wait a week and come back...don't expect docs for karmic, updated kairmode, or anything else I was working on15:38
nixternalI am getting ready to go on a month long cycling trip, and stuff has to get done...I am tired of the Ubuntu guys saying "It is karmic, what did you expect"15:39
jjessenixternal do you know what happened to advanced topics portion of help, can't find an advanced-topics.xml15:39
davmor2nixternal: it's been being worked on all morning by all accounts15:39
nixternaljjesse: I might have ripped it out becasue it was blank...i noticed i was working in 2 different spots as there are kubuntu-docs/karmic branches everywhere15:41
nixternalso I take it the next beta isn't going to be released on time?15:41
jjessenixternal: ok15:42
ScottKnixternal: Ask Keybuk if he needs a test case for encrypted drive debugging on #ubuntu-devel is what I'd do if you're in a hurry.15:47
nixternali would, but he is gone :/15:49

Tonio_happyaron: ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/devel/gettext-kde/gettext-0.10.35-kde.tar.gz16:27
Tonio_happyaron: when you need this information, you can generally apt-get source for your package, and look in debian/copyright or debien/control16:27
happyaronTonio_: do you know where can I find it's bug tracker, use bugs.kde.org?16:27
Tonio_happyaron: as this is officially kde, I'd say yes16:28
happyaronTonio_: thanks16:28
apacheloggerTonio_: plz invite ubuntu-dev to the kdesudo hackers team16:29
Tonio_happyaron: yw :)16:29
apacheloggeror add me16:29

Riddelllhappyaron: it's not used any more, that's for KDE 3 only16:29
Tonio_apachelogger: right, just seen your email16:29

apacheloggerwe dont have an kubuntu dev team on launchpad16:30
happyaronRiddelll: oh, thanks16:30
Tonio_apachelogger: I don't see the point is the 'ubuntu-dev" group :)16:30
Tonio_apachelogger: well kubuntu-members then :)16:30
Tonio_apachelogger: need to commit changes ?16:30
apacheloggerTonio_: the point being that I, as core dev, can crap out the package in ubuntu yet I cannot bzr push to the branch16:30
apacheloggerwhich is IMHO a permission flux since however does the next version needs to merge the upload done to ubuntu thus increasing his work load16:31
Tonio_yup16:31
Tonio_apachelogger: right, let's add ubuntu-dev then16:32
apacheloggerso since non-kubuntu devs can upload a new kdesudo to ubuntu it also makes sense that they can push their changes directly to the branch, thus ubuntu dev or at least coredev should be member of the kdesudo team :)16:32
apacheloggerTonio_: k :)16:32
Tonio_apachelogger: you're in16:32
* apachelogger looks for his torchwood dvds16:33
apacheloggerTonio_: thx16:33
apacheloggerTonio_: btw, is it common to create a new upstream release when doing changes? especially such that only affect the debian dir16:33
Tonio_apachelogger: ubuntu-dev invited, have to wait for the team admin to approve16:33
* apachelogger converted to update-alternatives16:33
Tonio_apachelogger: for debian, I tend not to16:34
apacheloggerok16:34
Tonio_apachelogger: just commit and next real upload will do the trick16:34
apachelogger*nod* makes sense :)16:34
Tonio_apachelogger: the thing is that kdesudo is commonly used on gentoo, debian, and a few other distros, so basically any code fix may require a new upstream release16:34
Tonio_apachelogger: in this case ping me, I'll do it, since I publish on kde-apps16:35
apacheloggerok16:35

Tonio_so maybe we should do it for him cause I suspect keybuk will not figure out if something breaks18:16
apacheloggerwhats this about?18:16
* apachelogger is wondering when our kdm init script became complicate though :P18:16

Tonio_ScottK: I see no xsplash-kde18:24
Tonio_ScottK: and xsplash doesn't rdepends on kubuntu-desktop...18:24
ScottKrgreening: It may be the new version is binary incompatible.  Could you rebuild against the new python-qt4 and see if it helps?18:24
ScottKTonio_: ksplashx?18:25
Tonio_ScottK: no such package afaics18:27
ScottKOK.  Ask Riddelll where it's hiding then.18:27
Tonio_ScottK:  apt-cache show kubuntu-desktop | grep --color splash18:28
Tonio_ScottK: nothing except the old loved usplash18:28
Tonio_Riddelll: any plans on that point or should I test xsplash18:28
rgreeningScottK: shouldn't reinstalling the .py from the deb generate new .pyc's18:34
rgreeningTonio_: ksplashx is part of kde18:34
rgreeningbuiltin18:34
rgreeningnm...18:35
rgreeningI think I misread conversation18:35
rgreeninglol18:35
yuriyTonio_, ScottK the way i understood it, kubuntu's implementation of xsplash just uses ksplashx, which is part of kdebase(?) so it's just a patch to kdm, no extra package18:37
rgreeningScottK: woudln't that be python-qt4 vs qt4.6 issue...18:37
Tonio_yuriy: bah afaics it doesn't work as nicelly as xsplash18:38
Tonio_yuriy: I still get a fallback to TTY between usplash and kdm18:39
ScottKrgreening: No.  Due to SIP insanity, as I understand it, pretty much every new build of python-qt4 is BIC.18:39
ScottKTonio_: I don't.18:39
Tonio_yuriy: isn't ksplashx only for kdm to desktop transition ?18:39
Tonio_ScottK: maybe you're just lucky :)18:39
rgreeningScottK: I don't understand18:39
ScottKrgreening: I don't know the details.  NCommander can probably explain.18:40
Tonio_ScottK, yuriy: in any case I don't see how can a kdm patch fix the usplash-kdm transition...18:40
Tonio_maybe we should use xsplash too18:40
ScottKTonio_: I'm pretty sure Riddelll has a plan, just not recalling the details.18:40
Tonio_ScottK: yep, that's why I asked :)18:40
Tonio_ScottK: http://pastebin.ca/156860018:40
Tonio_ScottK: changelog for kdebluetooth :)18:41
rgreeningRiddelll: any suggestion on how I can make python-qt4 work again18:41
Tonio_the guy mostly refactors the code, but seems very active :)18:41
Tonio_ScottK: I'll look at solid backend changes too, as most of his work should be on the backend side atm18:41
Tonio_but that sounds good, especially with knetworkmanager now starting to work decently...18:41
ScottKCool.  If that would work, I could dump blueman and a stack of Gnome stuff off my netbook.18:42
Tonio_looks like kde4.4 will eventually be what I consider a mature desktop, feature complete18:42
Tonio_hum looks like knetworkmanager doesn't like when networkmanager restarts :/18:43
Tonio_ScottK: also about web browsers.... waiting for arora to come out with adblock, I'm right now packaging opera for medibuntu18:45
Tonio_ScottK: not perfect, but lots of ubuntu users do use it so....18:45
Tonio_ScottK: cause I've seen that firefox installere we have... so damned bad not to be able to install it the standard way18:45
Tonio_most people won't notice the installer and will get 75% of gnome to use it...18:46
Tonio_that sucks... especially since that could be fixed in the packaging...18:46
rgreeningArora 0.9.1 or higher will have adblock. Icefox has a release almost ready.. so it will be in the next iso release :)18:46
Tonio_rgreening: oh ? that fast ? nice ;)18:47
Tonio_rgreening: what about passwords storage ?18:47
Tonio_rgreening: among all the features most users will want to use, this is the last missing18:47
* ScottK remembers he is away (working) and stops looking at IRC.18:47
rgreeningwallet support too. but not kwallet yet18:48
=== rickspencer3 is now known as rickspencer3-afk
rgreeningRiddelll: I think we need a rebuild of bindings for use with the new python-qt4 as they are BIC at the moment. This is what NCommander suggests may solve the current breakage. thoughts?18:55
rgreeningty NCommander :)18:55
Tonio_rgreening: basic wallet support is pretty sufficient18:58
Tonio_rgreening: I use opera and that's okay for me18:58
nixternalhrmm, getting kdm to start) shouldn't be difficult honestly with upstart19:01
yuriypyqt really breaks binary compatibility every bugfix release? ouch.19:03
nixternalheh, I am in pyqt4 hell myself19:04
yuriyme too, sort of. i was trying to fix apport-kde on sunday. actually i had a question for you19:09
nixternalno questions for me!19:09
yuriynixternal: you used sys.exit(0) for cancel in apport-kde, was that because of hanging or segfaulting?19:09
nixternalI have to start charging for questions19:09
nixternalsegfaulting19:09
yuriydang.19:09
nixternalshould have been a # FIXME when shit works again19:09
nixternalthat was only temporarily iirc19:10
yuriyunfortunately that bug is still not fixed. can't tell if it's pyqt's or qt's fault either19:11
* rgreening hates bindings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!19:12
nixternalyuriy: i thought it was fixed...though I need to see how I am doing it in kairmode...it might have been because of the sillyness with a KMessageBox or something....19:12
nixternalmight need a do not close on last window added19:12
e-jatanyone know how to solve this bug 42836519:16
ubottuLaunchpad bug 428365 in ubuntu "Karmic Koala Alpha 5. Desktop does not start, freezes the boot screen" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42836519:16
yuriynixternal: it was sort of fixed. it's hanging instead, if it goes down a code path that doesn't cancel and sys.exit19:27
nixternalapp.exit() doesn't work?19:27
nixternaloh, it has to return 0, and I think doing 'sys.exit(app.exec_())' didn't return 0, even when it should of19:27
nixternalthough I swore I figured taht one out as well19:28
yuriynixternal: well there is no main window, so there is no way for app.exec_() to exit the way i understand it19:30
nixternaloh right19:30
nixternalwhat is the main issue with apport-kde now?19:30
yuriynixternal: so you were running all the app code from the constructor, exec()ing the dialogs individually, then exec()ing the app and hanging19:31
nixternalwhich is odd, as that is the way it has always been, even when it was a qt app and not a kde app19:31
yuriynixternal: main issue is that it's hanging instead of exiting19:31
nixternallovely19:31
nixternalyou get anything when attaching gdm to the PID and continuing?19:32
nixternaldoes it shutdown or crash?19:32
yuriymore obvious issue is that it doesn't do anything because the complete report option is not visible and not checked by default (easy enough to fix), so it tries to cancel and just hangs (this is the hard part)19:32
nixternalright, i messed around with it hanging as well, then got it away from hanging and then into segphaulting19:33
nixternalit was fun times iirc19:33
yuriynixternal: the qt version did not exec() the app i think, but it had the segfault problem19:33
nixternalnice19:33

ScottK... is back19:53
ScottKSo I was chatting with my Dad on the phone last night and he asked me how to do something with his computer (still Windows - I'm working on that).19:53
ScottKThe answer I had to give him was, "Dad, you're asking me about how to do something in an operating system I haven't used in almost 5 years.  I really don't know."19:54
hungerScottK: My dad always goes "Why did I send you off to university then, when you can not even do the most simple things?" in that situation:-(20:01
* hunger really hates that.20:01
ScottKWe were together last month and he was using my step-brother's Vista equipped laptop and it was so incredibly slow, he asked me what to do to fix it.  I let him use my Kubuntu laptop and suggested it had the wrong OS.  For the first time, he was seriously thinking about it.20:03
ScottKMy prediction is the next time he gets a new computer, he sends it to me to put the correct OS on it.20:04
ScottK;-)20:04

SputScottK: but Windows *is* a legacy OS :)20:54
Sputand it was only one guy being of a different opinion :>20:54
rgreeningRiddell: Qt4.6 does not work properly with python/kde20:54
Sputalso I sorta forced my parents to switch to Linux (already in 2002!) because I refused continuing to give Windows support, and they would've had to look for someone else20:55
Sime_rgreening: what doesn't work? PyQt or PyKDE?20:55
rgreeningI downgraded qt to 4.5.2 and my python/qt/kde issues went away. There's something eith wrong with the build in experimental or it's simply binary incompatible. I suggest we not do anything with 4.620:55
Sputoooh, there's Sime_20:55
SputSime_: anything that could be done to make pykde4 compile again? it's been broken for months :(20:56
rgreeningSime_: I had latest python-qt and kdebindings 4.3.1 and qt 4.6. Nothing worked wrt python Qt/KDE bindings20:56

ubottuKDE bug 206473 in general "pykde4 fails to build because of KCategoryDrawer" [Normal,Resolved: duplicate]20:59
Sime_Sput: the real cause is probably a break in kdelib BC.21:01
Sime_Sput: I usually only update and fix bindings in trunk at the end of the dev cycle.21:02
SputSime_: hmmm ok... means that I'll have to do without the python stuff for another few months, I guess... a pity, it looked like an easy fix for a layman :)21:02
Sime_Sput: If you want to do PyKDE dev stuff, then it makes more sense to use the last stable really.21:03
Tonio_nixternal: really nice, testing21:04
Tonio_nixternal: should I just drop the links for /etc/init.d/kdm or ?21:04
Tonio_I'm not very much used to upstart21:04
nixternalme either :)21:04
Tonio_okay so let's... try :)21:04
SputSime_: I'm not working with it, but I'd like to have a full KDE trunk install on my box, and without pykde4, several components won't build :) though I could see and try if trunk still works with pykde-4.321:04
nixternalI just pieced together stuff from other upstart files :p21:04
Tonio_yup yup21:05
nixternalit doesn't seem to difficult initially21:05
Sime_Sput: trunk bindings should be very close to 4.3's.21:05
SputSime_: can I build pykde-4.3 against kdelibs from trunk at all?21:05
Sime_Sput: you can try ;-)21:06
Tonio_nixternal: installed in kdm.conf with link /etc/init.d/kdm.... let's... try21:07
nixternalya, how that part works is beyond me21:07
nixternalI take it, that it didn't work :)21:09
* jussi01_ waves21:10
jjessehello jussi0121:10
jussi01_:) hi jjesse21:12
nixternalI never tested to see if I fat fingered anything in that upstart file :p21:12
nixternalcould be a letter off somewhere21:12
yuriySeaJey: currently no, but that's an interesting point for self compiled software. the patch for that is in kdelibs, so if you're not compiling that yourself i'm not sure how we could detect that.21:14
yuriywhy is qt 4.6 an issue? it's not even out yet?21:14
nixternalTonio_: hehe, take it that it didn't work :)21:16
Tonio_nixternal: couldn't get it to work21:16

Tonio_upstart report "unknown job kdm"21:17
nixternalya, I should probably play around with it a bit, now I understand where it goes21:17
nixternalthe upstart file gets placed in /etc/init/ as kdm.conf21:17
Tonio_nixternal: looks like having a /etc/init/kdm.conf script and a link in /etc/init.d/ doesn't help21:17
nixternaland gets run that way...so there are some other tricks it seems for the file21:17
SeaJeyyuriy: this is mosty amarok issue - I regulary compiling it from git. BTW after some experiments with apport and ubintu-bug configs Report bug... does not work at all. How can I repair it?21:17
Tonio_nixternal: did that21:17
nixternalright21:17
nixternalok...so need to figure out the job thing then21:18
nixternalI will look through the stuff and play around with it some more tonight21:18
Tonio_nixternal: -rw-r--r--   1 root root  7161 2009-09-16 22:06 kdm.conf21:18
nixternalwhich looks right21:18
Tonio_and in init.d : lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root    21 2009-09-16 22:10 kdm -> /lib/init/upstart-job21:19
Tonio_which looks right too :)21:19
Tonio_nixternal: keybuck might know21:19
Tonio_nixternal: I suspect :)21:19
nixternalright...i will let him chill on the fixes he has been doing for the time being...I am sure I can figure it out just by reading backlogs, emails, and any wiki pages, as well as the upstart configs that are already there21:21
Tonio_yup21:21
Tonio_lemme know so that I can test.... I can't really help right now since I'm not really available21:22
nixternalI am a moron, because instead of looking in /etc/init/ I was grabbing package source that already had upstart scripts :/21:22
