asacjdstrand: you mean for karmic? ... sure. but not for other relesaes ;)?00:06
ftaasac, did you read about murrine?01:00
asacnot sure when ...01:02
asaci posted more stuff to the bugs01:02
asacso most till there i read01:02
asacalso provided same thing for clearlooks which seems to be the origin from that code01:02
asaccheck what i wrote ... once its both done, maybe you can get that in as an SRU ;)?01:03
asacpatch should be small enough to get that in01:03
asacfor gtk2-engines ... and gtk2-engines-murrine packages (both need the patch from the bug)01:03
ftaexcept that we still have no clue why it happens in the 1st place01:03
asacwell. the engine is really buggy01:03
asacits not really a workaround ... though evolution has a bug too01:03
asacboth sides are buggy ;)01:04
asacevolution just uncovered that the engines are buggy01:04
asacnow evolution still has no progressbar right?01:04
BUGabundoasac: newest cyanogenmod rom for android has usb tehter01:04
asacso that means it doesnt get hidden, so i dont see why we dont want that patch landed01:04
BUGabundo*tether01:04
BUGabundoI'll test it with brand new lucid code :)01:04
asachaha01:04
asaclucid code?01:05
asac;)01:05
BUGabundolets hope NM works01:05
BUGabundo(12:51:15 AM) MsMaco: so when can we upgrade to lucid?01:05
BUGabundo(12:52:50 AM) dtchen: it already exists (http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/)01:05
asacrather use dailies01:05
asacyes. but i dont think there is much there yet ;)01:05
BUGabundoasac: I think I'm on dailies01:05
BUGabundomy OS looks more like rolling release01:05
asacthere is no new modem/nm code in lucid for sure01:05
BUGabundothen release based01:05
asacyeah ... thats good ;)01:05
ftawe still have to rename the ppas01:07
asacfta: seeing whats wrong with evolution code ... sounds not that difficult now that we know what triggers this - at least in theory ;)01:07
asacfta: i have plenty of time next week as i am on vacation ;)01:07
asacbut here01:07
BUGabundoasac: (01:07:36 AM) Sememmon: funny.. the icon that indicates you're connected to a wired network in karmic network manager.. is a disconnected cable.01:08
BUGabundolol01:08
BUGabundodidn't take long :)01:08
asacothers said it looks like a seat belt ;)01:08
asacbut its definitly better than the pacman ghost we had for a month or so in karmic ;)01:09
asacfta: so the pinning approaches i outlined worked somewhat01:10
asacof course not exactly the same way i had that on the wiki01:10
asacwhich is why it dropped from radar as i found myself hacking in apt code :)01:11
asacwell not from radar, just from my current action :)01:11
asacBUGabundo: i guess your huawei thing didnt get better with latest kernels?01:12
BUGabundono idea01:12
BUGabundoI'm still wifi tether :)01:12
BUGabundoglad I got an android :)01:13
BUGabundoasac: ppl still complaining01:13
BUGabundoso I guess its not fixed01:13
asacdid they try the kernels?01:13
BUGabundoI tested kernels from PPA01:13
BUGabundowithout success01:13
BUGabundobefore release01:13
asaci hope you did something wrong ;)01:13
asacor is it a different issue with that?01:14
asace.g. not the infinit mode switching :)01:14
jdstrandasac: I did mean for karmic01:15
asacgo ahead then ... sure01:16
jdstrandthanks01:16
asacthey are superseded anyway01:16
asacjdstrand: remember that firefox-3.0 binaries are now in ffox 3.5 sources ;)01:16
asactoo01:16
jdstrandasac: right, I know, but our publication scripts aren't that smart01:17
jdstrandif I don't delete them, they'll just download them and then I need to manually remove them from the email01:17
asacok ;)01:19
asaci trust you doing the right thing with 3.5 ;)01:19
asac3.0 is none existing as you said, so the sources with all its binaries can go01:20
* jdstrand nods01:20
jdstrandI'm not touching 3.501:20
asacright01:20
asacgood night!01:20
ftatb3 red, and i still need to add tb3.101:21
* JanC gets really annoyed @ firefox updates overwriting my search engine keywords... :-(04:52
JanCwell, s/overwriting/deleting/04:56
mconnormmm, that shouldn't happen05:03
mconnorthough I dunno how apt-get updates work05:03
JanCtry a default install of karmic (don't upgrade, maybe keep it off-line!), set a keyword for one of the search engines, and then upgrade to the newest version05:46
g0thhi can anyone in here help me with shredder to thunderbird upgrade?09:30
g0thwhen I upgraded from karmic my whole mail system "vanished". Before I used shredder now I have thunderbird (I thought they were the same?!). A lot of settings are lost, I had to rename .thunderbird-3.0 to .mozilla-thunderbird to get any information at all (I also changed .thunderbird-3.0 to .mozilla-thunderbird in pres.js) and certificates and passwords dont properly work anymore. What do I do?09:30
g0thalso I did a big mistake I think: in my local folder I set to delete messages older than 30 days. I thought it meant the messages on the pop servers but instead I think it deleted all the messages I stored locally on my pc. Is there a way to get them back?09:31
g0thanother possibility is that the upgrade from shredder to thunderbird caused this somehow.09:32
g0thI was using shredder from ppa and now updated to karmic which removed shredder and installed thunderbird. I have the issues since then.09:32
g0thEg. a lot of preference settings are gone and I keep getting a message about a certificate. If I click to store it premanentely it just keeps popping up. Any idea why?09:33
g0this anyone around?09:34
markeywell, I am09:52
markeyexcept, I'm not a packager09:52
markeyI'm just here for bitching about the broken Chromium Dailies ;)09:53
eagles0513875g0th: lots of devs are outa teh so called office for the weekend12:52
eagles0513875you might find the occasional one stray in here12:53
asacJanC: yes. you are not the first to report this ... guess i should look into that13:05
asacthough ... my keywords still work :/13:07
asacJanC: like i have a keyword "bmo" ... which goes to bugzilla13:08
asaci didnt loose that13:08
asacoh ... guess bugzilla is not a system installed searchplugin13:08
asaci will check that for some vacation food ;)13:10
asacbut not right now ;)13:10
asaclater today or monday13:10
asacmaybe stay around and bug me daioly aobut it ;)13:10
asacg0th: going back from tbird 3 to tbird 2 is not supported13:10
asacso if you used shredder for serious work, you are indeed a bit trapped13:10
asacbut shredder is almost final, so whats the issue?13:11
asacwhy do you want to go back?13:11
asachttps://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa13:11
asacwe still have dailies there13:11
asacand next week we will get a milestone ppa too ;)13:11
asacat least thats what i set myself as a vaction goal :-P13:11
av`asac, there will be a mozilla seed for mozilla-related uploads?13:12
asaci will try ;)13:12
asacto get that13:12
av`great, it would be cool13:12
asacour team policy is strict enough imo... and i guess it would help also getting more folks contributing on mozilla ;)13:13
av`I guess that mozilla related stuff will get into the desktop seed13:13
asaci hope not13:14
av`if you don't propose a mozilla team seed alone13:14
asacmost folks in that team have no idea about all the implications ;)13:14
av`yeah :)13:14
asacyeah. thanks for reminding ... i will ensure that that does not happen accidentially13:14
av`np, let me know when you have some news13:14
asacack13:15
av`toolchain is in13:15
av`or at least mostly13:15
av`I've upgraded my lucid pbuilder already13:15
asacvery good ;)13:22
asaci will stay on karmic until the first SRU round is done13:22
asacthen move ahead ;)13:22
av`I gonna format my system to setup a fresh install soon13:24
av`too long since I don't clean it13:24
asachmm ... this system was installed with etchy ;)13:26
asacdoesnt really feel clean ... but its like a busy main street ... you cannot just redo without causing major issues13:27
av`well, my system is pretty slow now13:30
av`has some issues to sound etc13:30
av`cause broken upgrades, tests etc13:30
asachmm13:32
asacwhat has happened to my connman upload to debian ;)?13:32
av`dak clean up13:33
asacdak clean up?13:33
asacis it dead atm?13:33
av`ftp-master meeting is running in germany13:33
av`yes13:33
av`cronjobs are down13:33
asacah ok ;)13:33
asacthx for the info13:33
av`np13:33
asacguess the uploads wont get lost:)13:33
av`an huge dinstall usually runs in the evening13:34
av`so your upload should be into the upload's queue13:34
* asac checks incoming13:34
av`asac, ftp://ftp.upload.debian.org/pub/UploadQueue/13:34
asacftp://ftp-master.debian.org/pub/UploadQueue/13:34
asachehe13:34
asacyeah found it13:35
asac;)13:35
av`asac, connman is there13:35
av`:)13:35
asacjust noticed that i didnt know that url anymore /me tried http.../pub/incoming/13:35
av`incoming are accepted uploads e.g already processed by dinstall13:35
asacright ;)13:36
asacpoor folks .... see a bunch of dcut files there too13:36
asacwhen will ftp-master folks finally allow override?13:36
asacthat would be like a boost in this millenium13:36
av`dunno, but I know they did some cool changes to dak13:37
av`like buildd auto-sign13:37
asaci think the reason was that debians mindset is paranoid and think someone can sabotage them by overwrriting while you upload ;)13:37
av`ubuntu uses dak too13:38
asaclike ... i upload ffox ... then someone just uploads some garbage over my file ;)13:38
av`yeah13:38
asacav`: we dont use dak anymore13:38
asaclast use of dak was security ... which (luckily) is now dead13:38
asaceverything is soyuz13:38
av`scottk mentioned dak the other day13:38
av`e.g soyouz is based on dak13:38
asacwell ... ;) ... you can stretch that definition quite far for sure13:39
av`yeah13:39
asacfor me there are two enemies in debian:13:39
asaca) no overwrite13:39
asacb) no source only uploads13:39
asacboth combined can be the hell13:39
asacand13:39
asacc) security upload dak is a complete mess13:39
av`debian will be setup source only uploads13:40
av`in the future13:40
av`I guess13:40
asacwhen i still did all the security uploads for mozilla (e.g. when backports were needed)13:40
asacwe sometimes fought together with security team, ftp-masters and others to get an upload in for a week or more13:40
av`I hope things are better now13:41
asaclike: partial upload broken because of reconnect -> dcut works, -> dak thinks the tarball is already there, but cannot find it and always gets a checksum mismatch13:41
asaci hope too13:41
asaci said that i will never do any security upload for other mozilla team members until a) and b) are fixed ;)13:41
asacso when thats done, i will probably be more active again ;)13:42
asacatm there is still security upstream support ... lets see what happens with debian after december13:42
av`well, binary uploads are somewhat nice13:42
asac*we* will have a tough time too13:42
av`e.g so ppl test before pushing13:42
asaci want to upgrade hardy to xulrunner-1.9.1 -> 1.9.2 :(13:42
asacav`: to some degree the testing is true ... but ... uploading 40M vs. 150M is a completely different story ;)13:43
asacwith all the -dbg packages etc.13:43
asacespecially if you have to push that 3 times ;)13:43
av`yeah, that's not nice with huge packages13:43
asactbird, ffox, xulrunner (and even iceape)13:43
av`but works fine with small / medium ones13:44
asacso when i didn those four i could bet on having at least a connection drop for one of the packages13:44
asacwith all the pain and wrestling ;)13:44
av`maintaining those packages is a pain13:44
av`e.g building / testing / uploading13:44
av`you get crazy13:44
asacits ok ... but you just need good infrastructure13:44
asacubuntu is quite close when all the ppa builders are there13:45
asachave daily builds => push without testing ;)13:45
asactest binaries built ... for final QA sign off13:45
asacetc.13:45
av`anyway I hate uploading binaries13:45
asacbut yes. thats insane ;) ... i lost a few disks because of all the spinning13:45
asacbut that was really just in debian time ... i only build a upstream tree here now13:46
asacso i can do incremental builds after pulling latest13:46
asacfor development13:46
asacand just sometimes a full respin13:46
asacand packages are unlikely to fail because we just adjust patches i did in upstream tree ... and also have dailies etc.13:46
av`the nice thing of debian are the buildd machines available for developers13:47
asacwel ... from time to time i do a full package build ... e.g. when refactoring or trying something new in packages13:47
asactrue13:47
av`e.g you have tons of several different archs to test stuff13:47
asacbut its much more needed there13:47
asacbecause of the excotic archs13:47
asacotoh, in debian most folks dont use that service13:48
asacafaik13:48
av`yeah, the service is there but not a lot of ppl use it13:48
asacand buildiung is often not the problem13:48
asacand working on a sparc sigbus in firefox isnt good ;)13:48
av`which firefox release will we have in lucid?13:49
asacat least 3.613:49
asacmaybe even 3.713:49
asacif mozilla really releases in a 4 month beat now ... ;)13:49
asacwhich is why we have to redo everything :/13:50
asacbasically 3.6 -> 3.7 etc. is now considered a minor update13:50
asac(at least thats the discussion)13:50
asacso we dont get any security support at all ;)13:50
asacso we have to ride those new minor/major updates13:50
av`which improvements will it have?13:50
asacspeed13:51
av`and what about chromium? will it be pushed into universe?13:51
asaci think thats the main focus still ...13:51
asacthats the plan13:51
asacchromium is a huge license mess13:51
asacalso want to put that in debian13:51
asacbut i dont see that happening soon13:51
av`would be nice, but debian has strict licensing stuff13:51
asacubutu we might be able to get good-faith permission to upload a license buggy chrome ...13:51
asacin debian thats possible too .. but requires far more discussion13:51
av`which license is it under?13:52
asaccausing huge flames etc ;)13:52
asacav`: chromium is a mix of a whole new universe :)13:52
asaci think chromium itself code is apache13:52
asacor bsd ... which is what google usually uses13:52
asacbut webkit, and the other thousand dependencies are just pulled in from outside etc.13:52
asacwith variouslicense ... some without explicit license13:53
asacand they are definitly not all mutually compatible13:53
asacall i saw are at least compatible in one direction13:53
asacbut figuring out if they are used in the other direction is tough13:53
asacbut maybe thats not an issue13:54
asacso the complete work is most likely just GPL13:54
av`I guess that having it into universe will make tons of ppl happy13:54
asacbut even there i am not sure if all are GPL2+ or GPL2 or GPL3+ or GPL313:54
asacwhich is scary as you could not distribute GPL3 with GPL2 ;)13:54
asacsure13:54
asacand we have to find a way ;)13:55
av`I study law, and I think I gonna choose an exam about pc licenses13:55
asaclaw?13:55
asacinteresting13:55
av`yep13:55
asaclicensing is intersting ;)13:55
asacbut i think its quite well understood13:56
asacso nothing to do real research on ... guess some lawyers will disagree ;)13:56
av`I am studying latin law atm13:57
av`plus politic economy13:57
av`exams to be given at genuary / february13:58
av`two books around ~1000 pages13:58
av`I'll get crazy before becoming a lawier13:59
asaci never would have succeeded to get a good grade in law ... my brain is not ment to learn stuff like that ;)13:59
asaci am quite good to get excited about things i have no interest in, but that i have to learn ... but law is just too much14:00
av`yes, reading a law's book needs a fresh brain14:00
av`e.g you can't study at night14:00
asacfor me the law is simple: just behave in the same way you want everyone else to behave ;) ... like kant14:01
asaceverything else should get punished ... ;)14:01
av`lol14:01
av`would be nice to have that rule only14:01
asaclike folks trying to get the maximum out of law loopholes -> go to prison14:01
av`so I wouldnt need to study so much14:01
cwilluyay for formally undecidable laws14:02
asaci think the next important step that law has to get is to find way to properly include common ethics in law14:02
cwillustart by defining 'loophole' :p14:02
asaccwillu: right. thats why i say, that its one of the things philosophie and law have to figure14:02
asacfirst ... only then life on this planet will be good and just and nice for everyone ;)14:03
av`law should be more strict in italy14:03
asacmore strict is quite a wide definition14:03
av`here everyone do whatever they want14:03
asacpersonally i think we are too strict in some areas14:03
asacand not strict enough in others14:03
av`we should learn from german laws14:03
av`or better we should learn to apply laws correctly like germans do14:04
asaclike we do?14:04
asaci am not sure we do14:04
asacmaybe applying law is done properly14:04
asacbut the law themselves are a mess14:04
av`some ppl here kill 2-3 other ppl and gets only 10 years of prison14:05
av`and then they go out after 3 years for another law introduced in the meantime14:05
asaci think law science has not even reached the state that they understand how to refactor laws ...with not many regressions ... instead of just adding more laws on top14:05
av`well, the italian constitution would need a cleanup14:06
av`we have rules from 180014:06
av`and they still apply!14:06
asacyeah. well. so for murder here you get "life-sentence", which unless the judge says you are obviously dangerous forever, means 15 year14:06
av`murder for me is forever prison14:06
asacotherwise you get in a high security mental institution after the 15 years of prision for rest of life14:07
asacbut then we also had those folks go shopping with some guards in city ... and escaped ;)14:07
av`we have mafia here, which kills everything in the south of italy14:09
asacbut yeah. i think its pretty messed up too ... like child rapers sometimes get 2 years or so ;)14:09
av`they even went to germany to do a murder14:09
av`don't know if you remember it14:09
av`don't remember the city name where it happeend14:09
av`* happened14:09
asacbut also our old chancellor burried money for his party he good from bribers (weapon deals) ... and then refused to say who that was, and where he got that money from :)14:09
asacand he never went to prison14:10
asacs/good/got/14:10
av`yeah, politician are the worst ppl14:10
av`they have contacts with the mafia around here14:10
av`and they cooperate with them14:10
asacand a bunch of other folks still in government also forgot that someone gave them 100k EUR and just had that in their rooms ;)14:11
asac"oh, i don know where that came from ... must have forgotten it. sorry"14:11
av`oh I thought that just in italy we had such things14:11
asacno ... unfortunately we had that too (and still there are some folks around ... and noone got in prison)14:11
asacbut i hope italy is worse14:12
asac:-P14:12
av`yes14:12
av`it is14:12
asaci know14:12
av`did you read 'gomorra' book?14:12
av`from an italian writer?14:13
asacnope14:13
av`it is now translated in ~100 languages already14:13
av`so should be available in germany too14:13
asachmm. are you running the -security ppa or karmic?14:13
asacis firefox also slow?14:13
asaclike often stops reacting etc.?14:13
av`I am running karmic yes14:13
asaci think thats the sqlite we had in security14:13
asaci mean ... in the ppa14:13
av`nope, don't have security ppa enabled14:14
asacgood ... but you have latest ffox?14:14

av`damn my karmic installation hanged out14:20
av`cause my bad dvd drive14:20
av`omg14:20
asacah ok. those are test builds for the last upload i did before RC freeze14:20
asacav`: so what are your ideas/plans for lucid ;)?14:22
av`I gonna start my work for the desktop team plus I'll keep doing my work on mozilla extensions etc14:22
asack14:22
asacwill you help keeping extensions in sync in debian/ubuntu?14:23
av`sure14:23
av`plus I have GNOME stuff in debian too14:23
asacyeah noticed14:23

asacwill do14:29
asacok out for a bit ... enjoy your sat14:29
av`you too! cya later14:30
JanCasac: +1 on refactoring law instead of having a law that changes some laws that changed a lot of laws that changed even more laws, ... and then *after* it's voted someone sees that if you apply all the changes some parts of law became complete garbage...  ;)16:27
JanCit's like writing patches by hand and not testing them now  :P16:28
