| JontheEchidna | My dad is mad at his computer for suspending on him because the KNotification has such a tiny button and only gives him 10 seconds, which is a problem with a touchpad mouse | 00:50 |
| JontheEchidna | (He uses Fedora, so no patch) | 00:51 |
| Riddell | there's a thread on kde-core-devel that might be interested in that :) | 00:51 |
| JontheEchidna | all he did was unplug the power cord. Should powerdevil really be suspending? | 00:52 |
| neversfelde | Riddell: german is still broken on my desktop | 00:54 |
| neversfelde | I did not test french and should not do it, because I cannot understand it :) | 00:55 |
| spstarr | erm | 00:56 |
| spstarr | any reason we compile usb into kernel and not module? | 00:56 |
| spstarr | cannot mount usbfs? | 00:56 |
| spstarr | ??! | 00:56 |
| spstarr | you have to make usbcore a module to use usbfs I thought | 00:56 |
| Riddell | modules are slower to load? | 00:57 |
| Riddell | #ubuntu-kernel are more likely to know than us humble desktop types | 00:57 |
| yuriy | hmm no hanging apport-kde here. who still had that? | 00:57 |
| spstarr | negligible for usbcore i think | 00:57 |
| spstarr | im gonna ask | 00:57 |
| Riddell | neversfelde: ok I'll try german at some point (not tonight though) | 00:57 |
| neversfelde | Riddell: I am not at home till monday, so I cannot test it there. No problems on this machine so far, I'll keep an eye on other german speaking karmic users | 00:58 |
| neversfelde | where is the council vote? | 01:11 |
| nixternal | yuriy: wasn't it rgreening who had the apport-kde issue? | 01:14 |
| yuriy | nixternal: maybe. i'll ask when he's around | 01:14 |
| yuriy | blueeyed also had an issue with it not working if apport-kde is not installed, even if apport-gtk is, so gotta look at that | 01:15 |
| yuriy | nixternal: and then there's the problem with everything being labeled as kdelibs, did you get to look into that? | 01:16 |
| nixternal | I believe that might be due to the patch in kdelibs for khelpmenu | 01:19 |
| nixternal | but I am not 100% sure | 01:19 |
| nixternal | we could try to change it from doing PID to app name in the patch and see if that fixes it | 01:20 |
| yuriy | nixternal: this isn't related to that patch, it comes up when using ubuntu-bug with a pid | 01:20 |
| yuriy | my guess is it's an apport problem, it's probably parsing the process name as in ps and gets "kdeinit" | 01:21 |
| yuriy | nixternal: i'm looking at the apport_not_drkonqi patch and IIJM or is it forgetting to close the /etc/default/apport file? | 01:22 |
| * yuriy isn't very familiar with QFile | 01:22 | |
| nixternal | hrmm | 01:24 |
| yuriy | nixternal: also I put up a patch for bug 415237 a few days ago. i guess that's for -backports now | 01:30 |

| nixternal | sweet, greasemonkey scripts + chromium == super love! | 01:33 |
| seele | didnt we change it to 30 seconds? | 01:36 |
| ScottK | JontheEchidna: The controversy over the patch wasn't over the amount of time (IIRC the change to extend it to 30 seconds is already in trunk). | 01:44 |
| ScottK | claydoh: Link me and I'll work on it in an hour or two. | 01:44 |
| ScottK | seele: We (and upstream) both did. | 01:45 |
| seele | ok that's what i thought | 01:45 |
| ScottK | seele: I played with the dialogue a bit today (ran the laptop out of power, charged for a few mniutes, then ran it down again) and I actually find the dialogue less "HEY PAY ATTENTION" than the notification was. | 01:48 |
| * ScottK guesses because he sees dialogs all the time and they are never very urgent or suprising. | 01:49 | |
| seele | ScottK: expecting it and having it popup over and over sortof desensitizes you during the experiment ;P | 01:52 |
| seele | ScottK: actually i talked to sebas about it the other day, we're going to work out something else | 01:53 |
| seele | his and aarons issue had to do with the implementation | 01:53 |
| nixternal | holy smokes I am starving...who wants to take me to dinner? | 02:01 |
| seele | i made gnocchi with homemade sauce tonight | 02:10 |
| seele | but i ates it all | 02:11 |
| neversfelde | 3:13 am but I am hungry now | 02:13 |
| neversfelde | thanks seele and nixternal :) | 02:13 |
| yuriy | wow dr konqi is getting really nice | 02:22 |
| yuriy | we should borrow some of the UI for apport-kde | 02:23 |
| * seele coughs | 02:24 | |
| seele | i helped with that ;) | 02:24 |
| yuriy | seele: nice :) | 02:25 |
| nixternal | mmm, pb&j ftw! | 02:27 |
| yuriy | ooh i think i found a way to reproduce the bookmarks toolbar getting enabled | 02:29 |
| yuriy | can someone try detaching a tab in konqueror and see if the bookmarks bar comes up? | 02:29 |
| * nixternal tries | 02:29 | |
| nixternal | heh, it crashed konqi for me | 02:30 |
| yuriy | oh great | 02:30 |
| nixternal | am I supposed to have the bookmarks bar showing? | 02:31 |
| yuriy | it isn't showing for me, as default | 02:31 |
| yuriy | but when i detach a tab, it shows up in the new window | 02:32 |
| nixternal | hrmm, it might not have for me either, as I am pretty sure I didn't remove it | 02:32 |
| nixternal | i can't reproduce it, at least I don't think I can...though I could be doing something wrong | 02:32 |
| nixternal | heh, I just got an email from Facebook of all the people who have invited me since 2005 | 02:33 |
| yuriy | it's not crashing anymore? | 02:33 |
| yuriy | nixternal: oh, doesn't happen in karmic. good i guess. | 02:34 |
| nixternal | anyone know off hand if solid can detect drive activity? | 02:38 |
| ScottK | seele: I'd like to have a resolution on the dialog/notification thing for low power really quickly that gets us off the "Oh, look what they did when we told them not to" list. Politically, I don't think that can wait. | 02:51 |
| * nixternal waits for a google wave invitation | 02:51 | |
| * ScottK hands nixternal an invitation to fix some stuff in Kubuntu. | 02:51 | |
| claydoh | ScottK: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KarmicKoala/Beta/Kubuntu | 02:52 |
| seele | ScottK: the resolution is whatever aurelian is told to do by his boss. if he isnt told anything then we shouldnt diverge | 02:52 |
| seele | because the upstream solution isnt going to be done by the time we need it | 02:52 |
| seele | what is google wave? | 02:52 |
| * seele feels old and out of syn with the world for not knowing | 02:52 | |
| * nixternal files the invitation in his inbox hoping it gets processed within the next week - GTD! | 02:53 | |
| ScottK | seele: I thought upstream already had a patch to jump out to 30 seconds. That's the main issue, IMO. | 02:53 |
| seele | ScottK: right, but in the notification popup thingy not a dialog | 02:53 |
| ScottK | seele: I think that's fine for Karmic. | 02:53 |
| seele | the issue with upstream is that they dont like the dialog implementation. they already approved the 30 second thing | 02:53 |
| ScottK | Right now the world knows KDE said no dialogue and Kubuntu went and did it anyway. | 02:54 |
| ScottK | So I'd like to see us do a 30 second notification for Karmic and then do whatever is "right" for Lucid. | 02:54 |
| ScottK | seele: Is that reasonable? | 02:54 |
| seele | yes, but that's not up to me | 02:54 |
| seele | i'm not a developer, i dont work on the design team, and i dont have commit rights | 02:55 |
| ScottK | seele: It's up to KC in the end, so it's part of to you. | 02:55 |
| seele | i wish this stuff could get resolved without having to go to council all the time | 02:55 |
| ScottK | I can do the patch, but I don't want to unilateral revert someone else's work. | 02:55 |
| * ScottK too. | 02:55 | |
| * ScottK thought we had agreed to something other than what happened. | 02:55 | |
| seele | since kde is willing to work together and do it right, but just not right now, then imho we shouldnt diverge from upstream | 02:55 |
| seele | that means we have the countdown in a notification popup for 30 seconds instead of the dialog | 02:56 |
| ScottK | I don't think the notification can do the countdown. | 02:56 |
| seele | if i thought upstream wasnt willing to look into the matter more, my opinion would be different | 02:56 |
| seele | but i am quite confident they are interested in fixing it, but not in time for karmic | 02:56 |
| seele | really? | 02:56 |
| seele | that's lame | 02:56 |
| seele | can we make it persistent so it doenst dissapear right away? | 02:57 |
| ScottK | That I'm pretty sure we can do. | 02:57 |
| seele | the non updating countdown is a problem though | 02:58 |
| seele | if someone doesnt see it right away they dont know how long 30 seconds really is | 02:58 |
| seele | (a plus for the dialog unfortunately..) | 02:58 |
| ScottK | I doubt many people will think "Oh, I can type for another 5 seconds". | 02:59 |
| seele | is it just the ayatana notifications? people on the core list were talking about the countdown with regard to kde notifications as if it wasnt going to be a problem | 02:59 |
| ScottK | I agree the countdown is better, but I don't think it's critical. | 02:59 |
| ScottK | I may be wrong about that. | 02:59 |
| seele | it *is* critical. if people think 10 seconds isn't long enough, what value does saying "30 seconds to suspend" provide if you dont know how long that 30 seconds is? | 02:59 |
| seele | especially if you put it in a notification popup which people may not look at until they complete their subtask (such as typing a message or clicking through a menu) | 03:00 |
| seele | that could take 10 seconds in itself then all of a sudden 30 seconds is actually 20 | 03:00 |
| seele | but whatever, the problem will get fixed, just not immediately | 03:01 |
| seele | as long as it gets fixed, i think minimizing the differences and going back and forth between designs is more important | 03:01 |
| yuriy | building kdelibs is always so much fun | 03:20 |
| ScottK | seele: agateau already submitted an updated patch to have kmail use of MI default to off, so if we get this sorted, I think we are in line with what was agreed for at UDS for Kubuntu/KDE/Aytana interactions. | 03:21 |
| ScottK | claydoh: It could stand some editing, but there you go. Something like that. | 05:22 |

| apachelogger | Riddell: re karmicupgrades wiki page: 1) ... text sez update-notifier-kde -u, screenshot got update-notifier-kde -d | 09:34 |
| apachelogger | why is that necessary anyway :S | 09:34 |
| === dpm__ is now known as dpm | ||
| Riddell | I love the taste of Irn Bru in the mornings | 10:14 |
| Riddell | apachelogger: "update-notifier-kde -d" is necessary because it's always necessary for a beta | 10:15 |
| Nightrose | Riddell: Oo | 10:21 |
| Nightrose | irn bru in the morning? | 10:21 |
| Nightrose | do we have to have an intervention? | 10:21 |
| jussi01 | hah | 10:22 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: well, yeah, but, that page targets audience of the final release, doesn't it? | 10:28 |
| apachelogger | so why exactly does update-notifier not notify about the distribution version update | 10:28 |
| * apachelogger finds it quite doubtable that one has to run a command to get ones distro upgraded | 10:29 | |
| jimhu | Hi, anybody there? | 10:32 |
| Riddell | ahoy there | 10:34 |
| davmor2 | Riddell: Morning Dude :) | 10:35 |
| jussi01 | apachelogger: I may be wrong, but isnt it that when the new version comes out, they update the update notifier.desktop to run with the the distro upgrade flag? or am I completely off conversation here | 10:45 |

| jimhu | Hi, anybody there? | 11:13 |
| Riddell | there are 111 people on this channel | 11:17 |
| apachelogger | jussi01: do they? | 11:56 |
| apachelogger | dunno if that is much of a good implementatin if they do | 11:56 |
| apachelogger | quite in-your-face do-the-upgrade-NOW I would think | 11:56 |
| apachelogger | on a related matter, wasnt kpk supposed to provide update notifications in karmic? | 11:57 |
| Riddell | when the new version comes out the meta file on changelogs.u.c is updated and update-notifier-kde will pop up saying an upgrade is available | 11:57 |
| Riddell | kpackagekit does prompt for package updates in karmic | 11:58 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: I mean tray icon | 11:58 |
| Riddell | oh well, you know upstream and their notification plans | 11:58 |
| Riddell | tray icons shouldn't be there just for notification, that's what the "i" is for | 11:59 |
| apachelogger | hm | 11:59 |
| Riddell | the trouble is the "i" isn't at all graphically linked to the notifications so as a user I don't made that connection | 11:59 |
| apachelogger | oh | 11:59 |
| * apachelogger just noticed that there are indeed update noticifations :D | 11:59 | |
| Riddell | but assuming you go with the plasma version of notifications then I don't see a need for kpackagekit to have a systray icon at all | 12:00 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: you can hide about any progress dialog in kpk, where hide means go to tray | 12:00 |
| apachelogger | which makes sense for larger operations TBH, even though the hidding does not always work as expected | 12:01 |
| Riddell | currently it would just be nice if kpackagekit wasn't broken of course | 12:03 |
| apachelogger | very true | 12:03 |
| apachelogger | that said | 12:08 |
| apachelogger | glatzor: is it me or is pkgenpack broken?? | 12:08 |
| glatzor | apachelogger, packagekit service packs are not supported | 12:09 |
| glatzor | apachelogger, hello | 12:09 |
| apachelogger | :( | 12:09 |
| apachelogger | glatzor: is that on some todo? | 12:10 |
| glatzor | apachelogger, no. | 12:10 |
| * apachelogger would think online service pack creation would be super useful considering kubuntu networking is broken each release :P | 12:10 | |
| apachelogger | anyway | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | glatzor: I suppose the pkgenpack stuff should be stripped from the packages then? | 12:11 |
| Riddell | s/kubuntu/KDE/ while we're going to have tensions with upstream we may as well blame them for their lacking :) | 12:11 |
| apachelogger | they will blame us back for not using nm-applet | 12:12 |
| glatzor | apachelogger, makes sense. I will drop it. | 12:12 |

| apachelogger | Riddell: too intrusive for karmic IMHO | 12:19 |
| Riddell | I agree | 12:20 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: how about download-later or download from the actions? | 12:23 |

| Riddell | apachelo1ger_: I don't know what apt-file is, I don't think it has anything to do with update-notifier-kde | 13:31 |
| ghostcube | apt-file is cool | 13:31 |
| ghostcube | it checks inside packages for files you searching or | 13:32 |
| Riddell | yuriy: yes that should be changed, shouldn't be hard if you feel in the mood to do it | 13:32 |
| ghostcube | *for | 13:32 |
| apachelo1ger_ | Riddell: apt-file ships with an update hook that asks to run apt-file update, that hook is processed by update-notifier-kde, and that beast fails to do that properly | 13:33 |
| Riddell | oh, fooey | 13:33 |
| JontheEchidna | It'd make me happy if update-notifier-kde was ported to a C++ kded module that used KNotificationItem and KNotifications to notify users of things | 13:34 |
| apachelo1ger_ | here is the good news, porting to ktoolinvocation would fix that | 13:34 |
| JontheEchidna | even without update notification functionality, update-notifier-kde is somewhat of a memory hog for what it does | 13:34 |
| apachelo1ger_ | the bad news: since the hook command comes with \"'s invokeTerminal refuses to parse it properly | 13:34 |
| apachelo1ger_ | JontheEchidna: +1 | 13:35 |
| apachelo1ger_ | super low priority | 13:35 |
| apachelo1ger_ | JontheEchidna: also, I still think it leaks mem | 13:36 |
| apachelo1ger_ | besides the fact that the python runtime env is way too big for that usecase | 13:36 |

| JontheEchidna | nookie^: that's nice :) | 13:45 |
| Riddell | nookie^: it's very nice, but I don't have anything to do with the CD artwork myself | 13:46 |

| nookie^ | i did something similar for 8.10 i think | 13:46 |
| apachelo1ger_ | JontheEchidna: I should get going to get a new hair cut :D | 13:47 |
| JontheEchidna | apachelo1ger_: k, I'll have the thing in bzr by the time you get back | 13:47 |
| JontheEchidna | but you'll have to manually copy a few things, I haven't gotten it installing yet | 13:47 |
| seele | JontheEchidna: i think rgreening was working with KCMs at some point, he might be able to help | 13:47 |
| yuriy | JontheEchidna: agreed on u-n-k, maybe we should put that up as a Todo for Lucid in hopes someone will grab it :) | 13:47 |
| JontheEchidna | yuriy: if nobody does I'll probably at least give it a shot | 13:47 |
| * apachelo1ger_ hopes someone will fix stuff rather than redoing implementations | 13:48 | |
| yuriy | Riddell: i'll add that to bug 439758. i have a patch for kdelibs, but need to fix update notifier to take advantage | 13:48 |

| Riddell | jimhu: we're still here | 14:09 |
| jimhu | Hi | 14:10 |
| jimhu | I want to report a bug here | 14:10 |
| jimhu | i've already reported on launchpad, but nothing happened then | 14:10 |
| jimhu | so the Loco team suggest me to report bugs directly here | 14:11 |
| jimhu | When i install ntfs-config, the installer create a link in kickoff menu which runs the command "gksu ntfs-config". Since default Kubuntu install doesn't include gksu, it was not able to run ntfs-config from kickoff menu. | 14:13 |

| Riddell | jimhu: do you have su-to-root installed? | 14:18 |
| jimhu | no | 14:18 |
| Riddell | jimhu: I'm in the middle of an upgrade so can't do much except irc currently. could you check if packages.ubuntu.com has su-to-root in a package somewhere | 14:19 |
| JontheEchidna | !find su-to-root | 14:20 |

| Riddell | genius | 14:20 |
| jimhu | sure. a moment please | 14:21 |
| Riddell | JontheEchidna: could you install menu and check if making the .desktop file use su-to-root works? | 14:21 |

| === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening | ||
| yuriy | rgreening: oh i thought that'd be like the internet radio | 14:48 |
| yuriy | that's not open is it? | 14:48 |
| yuriy | rgreening: but yeah that looks pretty sweet, though i don't really get what it is | 14:49 |
| yuriy | rgreening: were you the one still getting apport-kde hangs? | 14:49 |
| rgreening | haha | 14:49 |
| rgreening | ya | 14:49 |
| rgreening | yuriy: the pandora is a ARM devices. runs linux. Open design open OS | 14:49 |
| yuriy | rgreening: doing what? I tried ubuntu-bug with a PID and clicked send and everything worked, no leftover process | 14:50 |
| rgreening | I wasn't doing anything special... I just noticed at one point I had about 6 apport-kde processes hanging around my ps list | 14:51 |
| yuriy | rgreening: can you test that then? | 14:52 |
| JontheEchidna | [08:39:21] <JontheEchidna> ha, I have about 7 apport-kde processes hanging around from the last crash eating up 41.2 MB ram in total | 14:55 |
| JontheEchidna | rgreening: ^ same issue you think? | 14:55 |
| rgreening | yuriy: sure | 14:57 |
| rgreening | yuriy: works if I manually call apport-bug,.. | 14:58 |
| yuriy | rgreening: how about for a crash report? (I think you can give apport-bug a .crash file if you have one) | 14:59 |
| rgreening | yuriy: if I call with crash and cancel the collection, I get a apport-kde hang | 15:01 |
| rgreening | hah | 15:01 |
| yuriy | rgreening: what if you don't cancel? | 15:01 |
| orestes | I've a question: I'd like to file a bug I've found testing a kubuntu karmic beta ISO, but I'm not sure which package I've to file it against. Someone can help? | 15:02 |
| rgreening | yuriy: If I let it complete and then close without sending, I get two ned apport-kde processes hung (I killed the previous one so these are new) | 15:03 |
| rgreening | s/ned/new | 15:03 |
| yuriy | oh fun. that's unexpected too, the close button is hacked to work | 15:03 |
| rgreening | yuriy: if I try a crash file belonging to root (and I have no permission to run) and hit ok, I get apport-bug and apport-kde hang | 15:04 |
| rgreening | it all seems very apport-buggy | 15:05 |
| rgreening | yuriy: same effect running /usr/share/apport/apport-kde direct rather than apport-bug.. so the issue is in apport-kde | 15:07 |
| rgreening | yuriy: I wonder if new qt 4.5.3 update would fix | 15:08 |
| rgreening | prob not.. | 15:08 |
| yuriy | rgreening: not necessarily. all apport-bug does is choose the right frontend, each frontend still uses common code for all backend stuff. | 15:08 |
| yuriy | rgreening: maybe it'll fix the segfault that the hang works around | 15:09 |
| rgreening | 4.5.3 is released.. so guess we need to get it packaged asap.. | 15:09 |
| yuriy | rgreening: but at least actually reports despite the leftover process? | 15:12 |
| rgreening | yuriy: it seems to | 15:15 |
| rgreening | yuriy: I think I fixed it | 15:19 |
| rgreening | hmm... nope | 15:20 |
| rgreening | yuriy: I'm almost there with the fixes... 2 so far I believe... | 15:22 |
| rgreening | yuriy, nixternal: what was the apport-kde hack for the crashing? | 15:32 |
| yuriy | rgreening: there is no main window, so nothing to do for the app.exec() call - most importantly, nothing to exit it. the dialogs exec themselves. so the way I understand it, the program as it is should never exit (but I don't think I understand it correctly, because it should be hanging on submit every time) | 15:36 |
| yuriy | so instead, there are sys.exit(0) calls for the cancel buttons | 15:36 |
| rgreening | hmm... | 15:36 |
| yuriy | rgreening: but if you don't app.exec() or sys.exit() and let the dialogs take care of themselves, you get a segfault | 15:36 |
| yuriy | rgreening: what were your fixes? | 15:36 |
| rgreening | for one... sys.exit(app.exec_()) at end of /usr/share/apport/apport-kde | 15:37 |
| yuriy | rgreening: but I don't see why app.exec_() would ever return, because you never quit() (I think i tried adding that somewhere but it didn't help, I don't remember what the issue was) | 15:38 |
| rgreening | hmm. | 15:38 |
| rgreening | yuriy: why can't we call the quit method on the close/cancel? | 15:39 |
| rgreening | oh.. nm | 15:41 |
| yuriy | don't remember. maybe you can. but the success condition is the bigger issue. | 15:41 |
| yuriy | rgreening: anyways, the way it's set up now is wrong, because all the code is run in the constructor of the MainInterface, then app.exec() is done so it's useless except to make the thing hang | 15:42 |
| rgreening | yuriy: instead of sys.exit, we could send a triggered signal and in the main, setup a slot that looks for the signal and it would call the app quit. | 15:43 |
| rgreening | maybe? | 15:43 |
| yuriy | rgreening: but the cancels and everything are in the separate dialogs which get created, execed, and done with before the app is ever execed | 15:44 |
| rgreening | hmm | 15:45 |
| rgreening | that's wrong | 15:45 |
| rgreening | lol | 15:45 |
| yuriy | umm yeah. and this is set up roughly the same as the apport-qt version it's based on, except that one segfaults instead of doing the extra exec() and exit()s | 15:46 |
| yuriy | rgreening: have you gotten the segfaults? i've been meaning to test with latest python-qt4 if that still happens | 15:50 |
| rgreening | no, just hang | 15:50 |
| yuriy | also with qt 4.5.3 would be good to test | 15:50 |
| yuriy | rgreening: ok, i mean if you change the code back to how apport-qt (see jaunty package) did it | 15:51 |
| rgreening | dunno | 15:51 |
| yuriy | unfortunately i accidentally overwrote my version where i was getting that | 15:51 |
| apachelogger | weeeh | 15:52 |
| apachelogger | that is so hacky | 15:53 |
| apachelogger | hrrr | 15:53 |
| yuriy | plan for Lucid: rewrite it to use a single window (more KDE style IMO) and base the UI on dr konqi | 15:54 |
| rgreening | yuriy: or add support into dr konqi to support plugin bug collection like apport | 15:55 |
| rgreening | and push upstream | 15:55 |
| rgreening | :) | 15:55 |
| yuriy | rgreening: harder, but would be nice | 15:55 |
| rgreening | yuriy: read this and nixternalshould too... http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2009/04/kapplication-tricks.html | 15:58 |

| rgreening | Riddell: don't forget K3B :) | 16:03 |
| Riddell | hmm? | 16:03 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: say I have a string in python that actually contains double quotes, how would I get rid of those quotes? | 16:04 |

| rgreening | tested fine here | 16:13 |
| apachelogger | A string enclosed in double quotes is not split. Within the string, the backslash quotes shell meta characters - if it is followed by a "meaningless" character, the backslash is output verbatim. | 16:13 |
| apachelogger | I fail to parse that | 16:13 |
| apachelogger | can someone explain me what that means :) | 16:13 |
| apachelogger | you know | 16:26 |
| apachelogger | it just hurts to use a programming language where you cant even do basic changes to a string object without wantint to shoot yourself | 16:27 |
| * Riddell takes the gun away from apachelogger | 16:27 | |
| apachelogger | seriously about any language supports at least chop | 16:27 |

| yuriy | apachelogger: what's chop? like split? or strip? | 16:44 |
| yuriy | i'm sure python can do it | 16:44 |
| apachelogger | yuriy: like strip | 16:45 |
| apachelogger | and no it cant | 16:46 |
| yuriy | apachelogger: what are you trying to do? | 16:57 |
| apachelogger | get rid of double quotes | 16:57 |
| yuriy | mystring.strip('"') ? | 16:57 |
| apachelogger | of the hook stuff from update-notifier | 16:58 |
| apachelogger | meaning string is command | 16:58 |
| apachelogger | and command might have sensible double quotes | 16:58 |

| yuriy | sebas, apachelogger: does kde/qt have some kind of onload event? | 17:06 |
| yuriy | rgreening: that's what i was looking for to fix apport-kde | 17:07 |
| sebas | What would onload do? | 17:07 |
| Riddell | objects have constructors | 17:07 |
| yuriy | rgreening: problem is the MainInterface isn't really used. if we could get it to actually exec() then "on load" it runs the apport code instead of in the constructor, and quits once it's done then it should work more correctly | 17:08 |
| rgreening | yuriy: I leave it in your capable hands :) | 17:08 |
| rgreening | haha | 17:08 |
| apachelogger | onload? | 17:09 |
| yuriy | sebas: well the problem we're having is with a pyqt app that doesn't have a main window. it's done rather.. wrongly. | 17:10 |
| * apachelogger notes that qt doesnt need a window these days :P | 17:10 | |
| apachelogger | see quasselcore | 17:10 |

| yuriy | is ~kubuntu-members/update-notifier-kde/trunk the right one for that btw? | 17:17 |
| apachelogger | aye | 17:17 |
| Riddell | rgreening: nothing k3b related on https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~roderick-greening | 17:18 |
| rgreening | Riddell: ya, I only put the package in PPA. Let me upload the the kubuntu-members bzr branchso you can bzr debuild it... | 17:19 |
| rgreening | give me a few | 17:19 |
| Riddell | rgreening: oh that's fine | 17:20 |
| === steveire is now known as steveire_ | ||
| rgreening | fine as in you'll take it from my PPA and update bzr or fine, I can update bzr for you and then you take? | 17:20 |

| Riddell | hi fale | 17:21 |
| Riddell | rgreening: fine I'll take from the PPA | 17:21 |
| rgreening | cool. | 17:21 |
| rgreening | apachelogger: I'll look into it... | 17:21 |

| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: kcm actually crashes? | 17:22 |
| rgreening | Riddell: you'll update bzr then too correct | 17:22 |
| JontheEchidna | it does? | 17:22 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 6: ordinal not in range(128) | 17:23 |

| JontheEchidna | huh | 17:23 |
| rgreening | apachelogger: Im looking but I see kubuntu-members is the owner... | 17:23 |
| Riddell | rgreening: yes if we have bzr | 17:24 |
| rgreening | Riddell: we do... may not be up to date in that case. hahah | 17:24 |
| apachelogger | rgreening: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/update-notifier-kde | 17:24 |
| apachelogger | there should somewhere be a message 'no default branch set' | 17:24 |
| Riddell | rgreening: debian/control doesn't think so | 17:25 |
| rgreening | Riddell: I know. I think it was intended.. but never done. we probably should... | 17:26 |
| Riddell | rgreening: have you filed a bug with Debian? | 17:26 |
| rgreening | for the patch? not yet. It's on my list to do today | 17:26 |
| rgreening | I replaced their patch, as it does not work at all | 17:26 |
| Riddell | neversfelde synced k3b bzr with the archive | 17:27 |
| rgreening | apachelogger: how's that look now... | 17:29 |
| apachelogger | rgreening: perfect, thanks | 17:29 |
| rgreening | np | 17:29 |
| nixternal_ | apachelogger: that's fine with me...the docs are out of whack anyways | 17:30 |
| apachelogger | kthx | 17:32 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: the uic crap always makes stuff way too complex | 17:33 |
| JontheEchidna | agreed | 17:33 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: I suppose it should look like this: http://aplg.kollide.net/images/snapshot042.png | 17:43 |
| apachelogger | :D | 17:43 |
| JontheEchidna | :o | 17:43 |
| JontheEchidna | now all we need to do is make it do all changes on apply rather than when you change things | 17:43 |
| JontheEchidna | the localization is in shambles :( I imagine this is an issue with normal software-properties too? | 17:44 |
| JontheEchidna | btw, what colorscheme/theme do you have? | 17:44 |
| apachelogger | yep | 17:44 |
| JontheEchidna | oh, and we need to policykit that bad boy up, but that might require changes inside SoftwareProperties | 17:45 |
| apachelogger | modified obsidian + nitro window deco | 17:45 |
| JontheEchidna | nitrogen... I think I didn't bother packaging that early on in karmic because it looked like an oxygen clone | 17:46 |
| JontheEchidna | but now it's all merged with oxygen for 4.4, so there's no need anymore for 10.04 | 17:46 |
| JontheEchidna | one less package removal bug I suppose | 17:46 |
| apachelogger | aye | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | that is why I do not like clones :P | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | - self.ui = uic.loadUi("%s/designer/mainkcm.ui" % datadir, None) | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | + self.ui = uic.loadUi("%s/designer/mainkcm.ui" % datadir, parent) | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: then just nuke the ui.show | 17:47 |
| apachelogger | that should take care of kcmification | 17:47 |
| JontheEchidna | ^why I am beginning to dislike python | 17:47 |
| JontheEchidna | too unstructured for my taste | 17:48 |
| apachelogger | not as beautiful as ruby for sure :P | 17:48 |
| JontheEchidna | putting this inside of kpackagekit should be fairly easy | 17:49 |
| apachelogger | yeah, should be something like $container.addPage(kcm-software) or something | 17:50 |
| JontheEchidna | I just have to set the parent in the .desktop file | 17:51 |
| apachelogger | that is if there is no internal roadblock that prevents pykcms from being part of capps | 17:51 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: I would go right ahead and check if/how kpk integration works | 17:51 |
| apachelogger | to avoid wasted time if it goes wrong | 17:51 |
| rgreening | Riddell: I sent a bug to debian re the k3b patch. so we are good. | 17:53 |
| JontheEchidna | apachelogger: http://imagebin.ca/view/cJPqWz.html | 17:53 |
| JontheEchidna | huh, crashes systemsettings | 17:53 |
| rgreening | JontheEchidna: have a look at usb creator package for ideas on how to policykit in python for kde. | 17:53 |
| rgreening | and talk with evand on #ubuntu-installer if you need help. he did that work in that package. | 17:54 |
| JontheEchidna | will the SoftwareProperties ui-agnostic class need polkit support first? | 17:54 |
| JontheEchidna | that's what really does all the root-wanting stuffs | 17:55 |
| JontheEchidna | oh, I guess systemsettings didn't really crash, just a python error (most likely about permissions) | 17:55 |
| rgreening | Riddell: new arora is out today. | 17:55 |
| rgreening | Riddell: I'll package and test and let you know when ready. | 17:56 |

| JontheEchidna | apachelogger: X-KDE-System-Settings-Parent-Category=add-and-remove-software | 18:08 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: still crashes in the translate_widgets stuff on localized system though | 18:12 |

| apachelogger | Riddell: bug 367495 please have a look | 18:20 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 367495 in update-notifier-kde "[intrepid]: no upgrade notification for jaunty received, manual attempt says nothing to upgrade" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/367495 | 18:20 |
| yuriy | ok who put 175 character lines in update-notifier-kde :P some of us like to use our screen space | 18:23 |
| * apachelogger is wondering what he has to discuss for the meeting | 18:26 | |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: any suggestions? :) | 18:26 |
| JontheEchidna | when I run the software kcm as root, it spits this out a few times and fails to be root: sh: getcwd() failed: No such file or directory | 18:26 |
| JontheEchidna | is it looking for a path to run from? | 18:27 |
| apachelogger | cwd = current working directory | 18:27 |
| apachelogger | there might be some way to wok around this, otherwise just cd to / in some init I suppose | 18:27 |
| JontheEchidna | see, software properties was meant to be a standalone application. Now we're having to work around all sorts of crap to make it a plugin :( | 18:28 |
| apachelogger | or was that meant as discussion material :D | 18:28 |
| JontheEchidna | lol | 18:28 |
| JontheEchidna | Open up project Timelord to more of the developer public? | 18:28 |
| apachelogger | python was just never meant to power apps :P | 18:28 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: I'd like to keep it closed to avoid any more rants or public coverage of any kind | 18:29 |
| apachelogger | once we have it pretty ironed out it can go public | 18:29 |
| JontheEchidna | k | 18:29 |
| JontheEchidna | Back to software-properties, the thing is, I'm not to fond of the idea of making my own sources.list editor in C++ | 18:30 |

| apachelogger | that I find funny TBH | 18:30 |
| JontheEchidna | ^in theory that list should be launchpad | 18:31 |
| JontheEchidna | but it's too clogged up with upstream bugs | 18:31 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: I wonder if Ruby could be used to create a Qt frontend to ibus-setup instead of creating starmonkeys | 18:31 |
| apachelogger | JontheEchidna: in theory someone first would need ot triage bugs :P | 18:32 |
| JontheEchidna | that too | 18:32 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: KDE UI > Qt UI due to style integration, but yes, it could | 18:32 |
| * Quintasan puts it on his Future to-do list | 18:33 | |
| Quintasan | god damn, too much to-do lists | 18:33 |

| apachelogger | talking about bugs made me wanna rant | 18:34 |

| apachelogger | if you dare creating freaking patches | 18:34 |
| apachelogger | then at least QA them and watch out for bugs | 18:34 |
| apachelogger | 1 month of silence on a quite in your face bug is unacceptable | 18:34 |
| apachelogger | perfect example of why I think that patches are evil | 18:34 |
| JontheEchidna | I don't think that patch is worth having a hardly-used kubuntu feed on the twitter apple by default | 18:35 |
| apachelogger | question is if it caused by the patch though :) | 18:35 |
| apachelogger | just wanted to rant :) | 18:35 |
| JontheEchidna | easily discoverable, if anybody did QA :P | 18:36 |
| apachelogger | yeah | 18:36 |

| apachelogger | Quintasan: delete this; this = NULL; | 19:09 |
| apachelogger | hm, of all the wicked code I wrote, I never tried that TBH | 19:09 |
| Quintasan | grr, I managed to write this -> http://pastebin.com/f33c9adbf how should I write it to make the app display the arguments in order I gave them (not backwards)? | 19:09 |
| * apachelogger blinks | 19:12 | |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: out of interest, why not use a while and nuke stuff out of argv? | 19:12 |
| JontheEchidna | lol @ name | 19:13 |
| * apachelogger notes that argument parsing should only happen once in an apps live | 19:13 | |
| Quintasan | JontheEchidna: :D | 19:13 |
| apachelogger | I dont find a for loop particularly suited for the use | 19:13 |
| Quintasan | apachelogger: I want this app to display the arguments given to, how else I can do this? | 19:14 |
| JontheEchidna | in porting jockey to pykde, I ended up copying the args, clearing the list, giving that to kde, and then giving the provided args to the jockey backend | 19:14 |
| apachelogger | Quintasan: markup: while not argv.empty?; output; argv.delete[0]; | 19:16 |
| apachelogger | i.e. iterate over argv until argv becomes empty, in each iteration output the argument at hand and remove it from argv | 19:16 |
| apachelogger | at the end you have procssed all of argv and have the benefit of empty argv, which is a much more real-life use case :) | 19:17 |

| nixternal | oh, I have the connection of all connections | 20:23 |
| ScottK | Riddell: Short version of my understanding of seele's findings is that upstream is not as opposed to a dialogue as the email discussion would appear, but there are some implementation details that they really don't like in the current patch. Her recommendation was drop the dialog and go with a 30 second notification (agateau already has a patch upstream) and then work on a better solution together for 4.4/Lucid. | 20:23 |

| rgreening | Riddell: arora 0.10.0 is awesome | 20:45 |
| rgreening | ie. it has adblock! | 20:45 |
| rgreening | so I am happy now | 20:45 |
| rgreening | Riddell: feel free to grab it from my PPA and push up. Works just fine. | 20:46 |
| * rgreening really needs rights to upload to main.... | 20:46 | |
| Tonio__ | Riddell: about kpackagekit I think the guilty is policykit-kde... | 20:48 |
| Riddell | Tonio__: does it work with the old standalone policykit-kde package? | 20:49 |
| Tonio_ | grmpf........... my internet connection sucks today... | 20:50 |
| Tonio_ | so did anyone reaply to "kcmshell4 kcm_pkk_authorization" sefaulting test ? :) | 20:50 |
| Tonio_ | rgreening: would you please confirm ? | 20:52 |
| Tonio_ | I get this error : *** glibc detected *** kcmshell4: double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x0000000001501fe0 *** | 20:52 |
| Tonio_ | pretty interesting:) | 20:52 |
| Tonio_ | I suspect polkit-qt | 20:56 |
| Tonio_ | PolkitQt::Context::hasError() const () from /usr/lib/libpolkit-qt-core.so.0 | 21:09 |
| Tonio_ | it is polkit-qt.... I'll test a fresh svn snapshot :) | 21:10 |
| Tonio_ | hum it went from qt0 to qt1 on svn :) | 21:11 |
| Tonio_ | same as gtk1 in fact.... interesting | 21:11 |

| ryanakca | nookie^: Hi, can you send me your countdown images please? | 22:09 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: "able to fit in the "latest update" banner at the top of kubuntu.org"... Should that integrate with the action items from the KubuntuKarmicWebsite spec (somehow), or will making the KubuntuKarmicWebsite changes live wait until after release? | 22:11 |
| Riddell | http://blusrcu.ba/kubuntu.zip | 22:12 |
| Riddell | ryanakca: ^^ | 22:14 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: ... and should that go inside #kmasthead? Or in the page body somewhere? | 22:14 |
| Riddell | ryanakca: inside the masthead (if possible and if it looks decent) | 22:14 |
| * ryanakca asks matt for the JS to make it countdown | 22:15 | |
| ryanakca | Riddell: Could you stick them up under /~jriddell/karmic-countdown-banner/ or something of the sort please? | 22:25 |
| Riddell | k | 22:25 |
| Riddell | ryanakca: done | 22:28 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: thanks | 22:28 |
| ryanakca | Also, was there a "Kubuntu 9.10 has arrived!" or an "Almost there!" one? or should I just display the "One day to go" until the end? | 22:30 |
| Riddell | ryanakca: just do the one day to go I guess | 22:31 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: Anyways, http://drupal.ryanak.ca | 22:38 |
| ryanakca | Riddell: I commented out the action items, I can make them go live a week or so after release I guess. | 22:38 |
| DaSkreecH | ryanakca: We need a Poster with Kubuntu needs you and Riddell doing the POinting Uncle Sam thing in a kilt :) | 22:39 |
| DaSkreecH | Who uses Kubuntu? | 22:39 |
| DaSkreecH | you!! | 22:39 |
| nixternal | there is a bit to much typefacing going on there | 22:40 |
| Riddell | ryanakca: that looks good | 22:40 |
| Riddell | DaSkreecH: I already have a vanity photo on kubuntu.org | 22:41 |
| DaSkreecH | :-) | 22:42 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| DaSkreecH | Why can't you log out via KDM ? | 23:13 |
| Riddell | if we knew that, we'd fix it | 23:14 |
| DaSkreecH | ok I guess a less stupid question :) When did this start? | 23:15 |
| DaSkreecH | My latest test of karmic is about a month ago | 23:15 |
| Riddell | it started for me when we got the crash-on-logout bug fixed | 23:18 |
| ScottK | It's mentioned in the release notes for the Beta. | 23:19 |
| DaSkreecH | ScottK: I know that's how I know about it now | 23:22 |
| ScottK | Then I guess I'm glad I put it there. | 23:22 |
| DaSkreecH | :-) | 23:24 |
| DaSkreecH | Yeah we should kinda aim at Human open eyes release notes | 23:24 |
| ScottK | Talk to claydoh about format when he's around. | 23:25 |
| DaSkreecH | I don't mind the Format other than I don't like having the list of mirros first | 23:25 |
| Riddell | maybe that should go on a separate page | 23:26 |
| ScottK | It's at the end of the regular Ubuntu release announcement. | 23:27 |
| ScottK | I think at the end or a separate page would be an improvement. | 23:27 |
| DaSkreecH | Yes I almost didn't see the notes | 23:31 |
| DaSkreecH | I saw it because I was clicking every link to see if they had a mirror | 23:31 |
| DaSkreecH | almost none of them are valid currently btw but I guess they are still propogating | 23:31 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| ScottK | For the final release we make sure the mirrors are in sync before pulling the trigger. | 23:32 |
| ScottK | Riddell: When you have a moment I'd like to chat about having the "warning" screen back in the installer for Netbook so we can use that for the "It's a tech preview, don't judge too harshly" disclaimer. | 23:34 |
| Riddell | we don't, but we do have a magically updating iframe with the list of mirrors | 23:34 |
| Riddell | ScottK: the thought had occured to me, it would need some code in ubiquity but I doubt it's too hard, I expect shtylman can be conjoled into action | 23:35 |
| ScottK | Riddell: Cool. I think it'll be an important part of upstream being happy with the way we deliver the message for netbook. | 23:35 |
| Riddell | although it's late for a new string and it can't be updated with langpacks | 23:35 |
| ScottK | Ooops. | 23:35 |
| ScottK | Well I didn't think of it until yesterday. Sorry. | 23:36 |
| Riddell | yeah it's upstream's fault for changing their plans :) | 23:36 |
| Riddell | shtylman: what say thee? | 23:36 |
| ScottK | Their suggestion was a watermark on the desktop. I think this is way better. | 23:36 |
| Riddell | no need to rub users nose in it, they can make an informed choice | 23:37 |
| ScottK | Yep. | 23:38 |
| ScottK | I just want to have a solid response to "but users don't read release notes". | 23:38 |
| ScottK | I think a click through on the installer is a solid answer. | 23:39 |
| Riddell | ScottK: looks like shtylman has been idle for a couple of days, we should e-mail him | 23:48 |
| * Riddell makes it sew | 23:50 | |
| JontheEchidna | what if... | 23:53 |
| JontheEchidna | what if polkit-manager-kde crashing somehow caused bug 438279 | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 438279 in packagekit "Kpackagekit ask to report some errors " [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/438279 | 23:54 |
| JontheEchidna | if the root-having process that does all the priviledged stuff dies | 23:55 |
| JontheEchidna | kpackagekit can no longer write to root-needing places | 23:55 |
| Riddell | seems plausible | 23:55 |
| JontheEchidna | so then the dpkg suddenly halts, unable to write any more | 23:55 |
| JontheEchidna | causing the "cannot write to standard output error" | 23:56 |
| JontheEchidna | the packagekit traceback seems to indicate it cannot run a dpkg helper | 23:56 |
| Riddell | maybe Tonio_ has figured it all out :) | 23:56 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: I'm trying to fix, currently on my ppa :) | 23:57 |
| Tonio_ | I have hudge internet connection problems today, so that'll take time :) | 23:57 |
| Tonio_ | also I played with latest arora, it's real genius :) | 23:57 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: latest libpolkit-qt on my ppa, but as there is a API transition, I suspect we may expect problems with some apps :/ | 23:58 |
| Riddell | umm, where's that from? | 23:58 |
| Tonio_ | svn in branches/work | 23:59 |
| Tonio_ | there is the libpolkit-qt-1 | 23:59 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: was pretty hard for me to find it :) | 23:59 |
| Riddell | I believe that's not complete yet | 23:59 |
| Tonio_ | Riddell: I know that, but it can lead to what need to be done | 23:59 |
