JontheEchidnaI wonder if any are in the import queue to launchpad00:06

nixternalhrmm...mindmapping is interesting...I want something where I can jot it down on paper, take it to an app, draw it out in a diagram easily....just tried out semantik, don't think that is the way to go...what do you use to do stuff like this?00:12
nixternalbesides a piece of paper00:12
nixternalhrmm, guess nobody mind maps that is a developer...all of the mind mapping apps are out of date in the repos00:16
ScottKWould be too ugly to see the light of day00:20
nixternalheh, so true00:24
nixternalFYI: for you that want to mind map, vym it is...qt4 based and our friends at trolltech even use it :)00:25
ScottKIs it up to date?00:27
nixternalyes it is00:29
ScottKOK.00:33
neversfeldethere were some reports, that translation problems with german are fixed after the latest updates00:35
nixternalI don't believe it00:36
nixternalprove it to me00:36

ScottKJontheEchidna: Minus points for not closing the bug in the changelog (Konversation)00:40
JontheEchidnaeep00:41
yuriyJontheEchidna, nixternal: I figured out how to do apport-kde better so it doesn't hang, but the segfault is indeed still there :(00:46
nixternalwhat did you do?00:46
yuriynixternal: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/285026/00:58
nixternalhahaha, you used one of my all-time favorite hacks01:00
nixternalQTimer.singleshot01:00
nixternalanother nice thing about singleshot, you can do really nice loops or recursion without eating memory01:01
nixternalie:01:01
nixternaldef foo(self):01:01
nixternal    print "foo"01:01
nixternalQTimer.singleshot(100, self.foo)01:01
nixternalerr, forgot to space that01:02
nixternalput the QTimer in the def :)01:02
nixternalcuz you can't do 'while True:' w/o blowing things up01:02
yuriyyeah it does provide for some neat hacks01:02
yuriybut more importantly answers the question of what the heck a QCoreApplication is for01:03
nixternalinteresting01:04
nixternalas that is used to provide the event loops for cli apps01:04
yuriyi never could figure out how to use it before though, because normally you make use of the event loop in GUI applications01:05
yuriyif you have code that runs before or after the exec() it will run before the event loop starts or after it exits01:06
yuriybut a timer allows you to set things up to actually run in the event loop01:06
yuriybut anyways, segfault is still there so :(01:07
nixternalthat's because app.exec_() isn't returning a 0, it is returning something else01:08
yuriynixternal: the segfault? I don't think that would cause one01:09
nixternalactually it does01:10
nixternalit was doing that for me in another app I was working on01:10
* nixternal looks at something01:10
yuriyespecially if you consider the backtrace (bug 403361)?01:10

nixternalthen in there I have a def toggleQuit(self):01:11
yuriynixternal: actually it DOES return 0  :O01:12
nixternalwhere I put 'sys.exit(app.quit())01:12
JontheEchidnaoh, this is great. Quassel entirely lacks a spanish translation. The only strings translated are those it gets from kdelibs via language-pack-*01:12
nixternaland then in __main__ I just put01:12
nixternalapp.exec_()01:12
nixternalattach gdb to the pid then quit, see what that spits out01:13
yuriynixternal: app.quit() is void, and makes exec_ return 001:13

freinhardnarf, apt fails on distupgrade without a error message, even with all debug options.10:25
freinharddidn't look that deep into the code yet, does DistUpgradeController.py do the same a apt-get dist-upgrade would do?10:26
freinhardjust did a apt-get dist-upgrade:10:28
freinhardE: Couldn't configure pre-depend openoffice.org-core for openoffice.org-filter-binfilter, probably a dependency cycle.10:28
a|wenfreinhard: that one might be an archive inconsistency; are you on karmic?10:36
freinharda|wen: not yeat10:38

tsdgeoshow much pain there's updating to karmic?12:05
a|wentsdgeos: the mirrors have been painfully slow the last two days ... but if you locate a local mirror with good bw, it should be painless enough12:10
tsdgeossomeone mentioned pain due to change of gcc/glibc12:18
tsdgeoshow much truth is in there?12:18
a|wendepends on how much you are compiling a lot of stuff yourself ... there is no pain in using it in that regard (only a lot to fix for devs)12:26

sebasamarok: Depends: amarok-common (= 2:2.2.0-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed14:57
sebasthis is what happens when I try to install "amarok"14:57
JontheEchidnasebas: the amarok build on i386 where common data packages are built failed due to mysql borkage15:09
sebasJontheEchidna: x86_64 as well?15:15
JontheEchidnaamarok-common is only built on i386 since it only needs built once15:15
JontheEchidnasince it only contains data files usable by all archs15:16

Riddelllit was expected that with the upstart stuff it would take longer to start because there would be more going on in the background but I don't see that having happened18:11
JontheEchidnais there any way to make kdm start earlier than it already does?18:11
RiddelllI havn't tried ubuntu desktop for a while so I don't know how it compares18:11
Riddelllkdm can't start earlier.  there might be some way of getting it to start ksplashx sooner after X has started but I don't know of one18:11
