| chrisccoulson | what conditions seem to trigger it? | 00:18 |
| robert_ancell | chrisccoulson, I haven't worked out what causes it - I've never seen it myself and the backtrace isn't giving me many clues | 00:19 |
| robert_ancell | It seems reasonably common though | 00:19 |

| mvo | mac_v: that is indeed pretty negative :/ | 10:15 |
| pitti | a friend of mine ranted as well already | 10:15 |
| seb128 | mvo, what? review? | 10:17 |
| seb128 | pitti, about? | 10:17 |
| mvo | seb128: the link that mac_v posted | 10:17 |
| andreasn | seb128: I was blown away by how fast karmic booted on my dell machine | 10:17 |
| seb128 | mvo, I just rebooted so didn't get it | 10:17 |
| seb128 | andreasn, ssd drive? | 10:17 |
| pitti | seb128: pulseaudio, policykit behaviour, and docking station handling primarily | 10:18 |
| mac_v | seb128: >>> http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/11/03/karmic_koala_frustration/ | 10:18 |
| andreasn | seb128: not sure, how do I check that? | 10:19 |
| seb128 | andreasn, you would probably know if you had one | 10:19 |
| GerardT | Hi | 10:20 |
| seb128 | hum, why does they say karmic install 2.6.28? | 10:21 |
| mac_v | FWIW , hardware sucks... for my hardware Karmic was so much better than Jaunty ... I'v been using Karmic since alpha2 and for me , apart for the occasional crashes, it was more stable than Jaunty final and worked even better... I guess that alpha testers who had problems , reported the issues and the bugs were fixed... I guess it might be just that we dont have a widespread alpha tester base :( | 10:21 |
| GerardT | I'm using Karmic and I have installed the PPA version of empathy, Can one get cam from another MSN user even if you don't have a cam installed on your side? (This works on MSN Live) | 10:21 |
| seb128 | GerardT, try #telepathy | 10:22 |
| GerardT | thanks | 10:22 |
| andreasn | seb128: so yeah, I think it's just a regular disk. I feel every release boots faster and faster (although this was the first time I installed ubuntu on that machine) | 10:22 |
| GerardT | will do | 10:22 |
| seb128 | GerardT, we are not working on the ppa version | 10:22 |
| seb128 | pitti, mvo: karmic has lot of issues but this article is a crap one | 10:22 |
| seb128 | not sure where they got the linux version used wrong | 10:23 |
| GerardT | seb128: I installed the PPA because MSN vid call is disabled :D | 10:23 |
| seb128 | and what sort of issue upgrades get | 10:23 |
| seb128 | GerardT, it's disabled for a reason, it's early code and lack stability | 10:23 |
| GerardT | aah | 10:24 |
| GerardT | the Telepathy page didn't mention that :D | 10:24 |
| GerardT | Tired of running XP in a VM just for Vid conferencing, I was hoping Telepathy fixed that. | 10:25 |
| GerardT | Thanks for the help seb128 | 10:25 |
| seb128 | you're welcome | 10:25 |
| mac_v | seb128: you need to comment on the page or contact the author about the mistakes , in the article, this article is bad PR :( | 10:25 |
| seb128 | GerardT, well it might work for you it's worth testing | 10:25 |
| seb128 | mac_v, right, unfortunate but you will always have different press stories anyway | 10:26 |
| GerardT | I tried with a friend and the call never came through but I don't have cam, so it might be the code needs a cam on both sides of the connection | 10:26 |
| * seb128 wonders if somebody read my ubuntu-desktop email or care | 10:26 | |
| seb128 | I feel I waster an hour writing it yesterday | 10:26 |
| seb128 | I feel I waster an hour writing it yesterday | 10:26 |
| seb128 | ups | 10:26 |
| mac_v | seb128: was that mail a call for early testers? i was a bit confused | 10:27 |
| seb128 | mac_v, not really no | 10:27 |
| mac_v | ah ,ok | 10:27 |
| mvo | seb128: it is | 10:28 |
| seb128 | it was rather a call to organize efforts on quality | 10:28 |
| mvo | seb128: that is a bug in grub apparently, there was a discussion about this the other day | 10:28 |
| seb128 | mvo, it is what? one hour wasted? ;-) | 10:28 |
| mvo | seb128: its a crap article | 10:28 |
| seb128 | mvo, oh :-( | 10:28 |
| seb128 | you will always find somebody who got unlucky with some hardware | 10:29 |
| seb128 | I expect we got similar reviews about intel in jaunty | 10:29 |
| seb128 | pitti, what was wrong with the murrine update? | 10:30 |
| pitti | seb128: see bug; it adds a patch to series which wasn't included in the diff | 10:30 |
| seb128 | gni? | 10:30 |
| GerardT | Very impressed with Karmic btw. | 10:30 |
| seb128 | GerardT, thanks ;-) | 10:30 |
| seb128 | pitti, oh right, thanks for spotting it | 10:31 |
| seb128 | pitti, reuploaded | 10:33 |
| seb128 | pitti, that's me who sucked and tried to clean the config.guess and config.sub from the debdiff | 10:34 |
| seb128 | I overlooked the other changes while cleaning | 10:34 |
| GerardT | I don't know what changed in the sound drivers but the volume is WAY better in Karmic than Jaunty | 10:35 |
| pitti | seb128: np; thanks | 10:36 |
| seb128 | pitti, oh, you sponsored robert_ancell's rhythmbox change too, thanks | 10:36 |
| seb128 | hey again chrisccoulson | 10:40 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, I sponsored your gnome-desktop sru | 10:40 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - thanks | 10:40 |
| chrisccoulson | pitti - how did you track down the udev issue? | 10:43 |
| chrisccoulson | that's quite a non-obvious issue ;) | 10:43 |
| pitti | chrisccoulson: I did some IRC/ssh debugging on huat's machine; first we noticed that it works when restarting udedv (i. e. when "sudo stop udev"/"udevd --debug" -> heisenbug) | 10:44 |
| pitti | chrisccoulson: so I straced the udevd after boot, found that it threw millions of "too many open files" errors, looked at /proc/pid/fd/ and saw that it kept > 1000 dirs open to /dev/.udev/db/links/ | 10:45 |
| seb128 | pitti, just curious but why retracers keep crashing? | 10:45 |
| seb128 | pitti, do you want me to help on cleaning and restarting those? | 10:45 |
| chrisccoulson | pitti - that's good work though. it's quite a tricky issue to track down | 10:45 |
| pitti | chrisccoulson: then I noticed that I got the issue as well when doing an udev trigger on my usb stick | 10:46 |
| pitti | chrisccoulson: then the fun bit was to stare at strace and the code long enough to find out where the leak happened :) | 10:46 |
| pitti | seb128: I just restarted them a couple of times, but they keep crashing with "bad gateway" and 403 erros | 10:46 |
| pitti | haven't looked into that yet, sorry | 10:46 |
| seb128 | pitti, I was not asking you to have a look I was rather asking if you want me to do the clean and restart game for a while | 10:47 |
| seb128 | so it's not always you | 10:47 |
| pitti | seb128: that would be nice | 10:47 |
| seb128 | ok, will do | 10:47 |
| pitti | but I think there's an underlying bug | 10:47 |
| seb128 | right, but meanwhile let's keep them going this way | 10:47 |
| pitti | seb128: it might be worth checkign if it always crashes on the same bug | 10:47 |
| seb128 | until we look at the issue | 10:47 |
| pitti | if not, we could just keep restarting them | 10:47 |
| pitti | if it's the same bug, perhaps just untag it for now | 10:47 |
| seb128 | ok, I will keep an eye on what happens | 10:48 |
| pitti | merci! | 10:48 |
| seb128 | you're welcome | 10:48 |

| chrisccoulson | when are we starting the gnome 2.29.1 updates? ;) | 10:57 |

| ubottu | Gnome bug 600488 in general "Totem is leaking session inhibitors" [Major,Resolved: fixed] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=600488 | 10:58 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, wait for somebody to complain maybe and batch with other changes? | 10:59 |
| seb128 | ie we can wait maybe to fix some extra issues | 11:00 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - yeah, maybe. i'll have a look and see if there are any other gnome-screensaver issues too | 11:00 |
| hyperair | after rebooting over 10 times and checking my uptime directly after the desktop has settled, i've made one observation -- sreadahead is crap that doesn't do anything >_> | 11:00 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, oh it's gnome-screensaver | 11:00 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, go for it | 11:00 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - thanks. i'll prepare the update for that later | 11:01 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, i initially thought the bug was totem, but i didn't realise that gnome-screensaver is meant to clear up these inhibitors too. it is that bit which currently doesn't work | 11:01 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, did you figure why it's breaking on normal closing for you? | 11:03 |
| Ng | hyperair: try ureadahead from the ubuntu-boot ppa :) | 11:03 |
| pitti | chrisccoulson: hm, doesn't sound like a terribly critical issue to me, but go ahead if you think it's important; I tend to agree to seb128 to bundle it with other fixes, though | 11:03 |
| hyperair | Ng: yet another Xreadahead?! | 11:03 |
| hyperair | Ng: what's new in this one? | 11:04 |
| Ng | hyperair: it has even more Keybuk magic (I have no idea ;) | 11:04 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - no, i'm not sure about that. do you see any warnings related to inhibiting when you run totem from the terminal? | 11:04 |
| hyperair | Ng: and i'm willing to give anything a go if it'll decrease my bootup time (currently 2m-2m30s) | 11:04 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson1, no | 11:16 |
| andreasn | mpt: do you have slides from your Interface Bloopers talk available somewhere? | 11:29 |
| mpt | andreasn, just uploaded it to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MatthewPaulThomas?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=Bloopers.pdf | 11:30 |

| pitti | yeah | 13:55 |
| pitti | but not surprising | 13:55 |
| mvo | Amaranth: nice, thanks | 13:56 |
| * pitti copies to lucid | 13:56 | |
| chrisccoulson | it's good that users participate in the SRU process | 13:56 |
| kenvandine | seb128, btw that xchat-gnome plugin suffers from the same focus problem as empathy and pidgin when raised from the indicator | 13:58 |
| * kenvandine is annoyed | 13:58 | |
| seb128 | kenvandine, it's disappointing that the dxteam washes hand and consider the issue not their issue when the user experience is so poor there | 14:00 |
| kenvandine | yeah, there needs to be a generic way of fixing this | 14:01 |
| kenvandine | we shouldn't need to go into each app and force it | 14:01 |
| kenvandine | like i really don't want to have to patch xchat-gnome to make it force focus | 14:01 |
| chrisccoulson | does anyone understand why this behaviour occurs? | 14:03 |
| chrisccoulson | i find it really annoying too | 14:04 |
| Amaranth | What is happening? | 14:04 |
| Amaranth | Oh, right, focus stealing prevention | 14:04 |
| mvo | heh :) Amaranth has a highlight on focus - I'm sure :P | 14:04 |
| chrisccoulson | Amaranth - yes, specifically with apps launched from the indicator | 14:04 |
| chrisccoulson | focus focus focus :P | 14:04 |
| Amaranth | Right, because the WM sees you clicking on the indicator thing | 14:05 |
| Amaranth | So you need to have the app that is trying to get focus have a timestamp that comes after this click | 14:06 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, that's what i was wondering | 14:06 |
| Amaranth | iirc I told this to someone before... | 14:06 |
| Amaranth | But it would involve changing code in each app that has an indicator plugin | 14:06 |
| Amaranth | I can't think of any other way to do it | 14:06 |
| mac_v | kenvandine: is xchat-gnome is similar to xchat? or any features are missing from it? | 14:07 |
| kenvandine | some features missing | 14:07 |
| Amaranth | mac_v: ban lists :/ | 14:07 |
| kenvandine | but nothing important :) | 14:07 |
| Amaranth | ha | 14:07 |
| kenvandine | imho | 14:07 |
| * kenvandine has never found a need for ban lists | 14:07 | |
| * Amaranth puts his Op Team hat on | 14:07 | |
| Amaranth | ban lists are very important | 14:07 |
| kenvandine | mac_v, i estimate it is about 60% of the xchat features, enough for average users | 14:08 |
| kenvandine | and it has a much better UI :) | 14:08 |
| mac_v | oh... i *never* tried xchat-gnome ,since folks kept telling that is had problems , ubt since kenvandine is getting the indicator plugin , I'm tempted :) | 14:08 |
| kenvandine | problems? | 14:08 |
| mac_v | but* | 14:08 |
| chrisccoulson | i only just started using xchat-gnome | 14:09 |
| * kenvandine has been using it for years, love it :) | 14:09 | |
| chrisccoulson | i used empathy for IRC before, so xchat-gnome is a big step up | 14:09 |
| mac_v | kenvandine: i dont know what problems , but that was probably near hardy or earlier... i dont eve remember :) | 14:09 |
| kenvandine | chrisccoulson, hehe... | 14:09 |
| Amaranth | I've been using xchat-gnome since it first made it into Ubuntu but I still miss ban lists | 14:10 |
| Amaranth | There has been a menu item for them this whole time too, it's just grayed out | 14:10 |
| Amaranth | Oh, xchat-gnome also falls over when you type "ma<tab>" and more than one nick matches | 14:10 |
| seb128 | Amaranth, those are an admin feature though | 14:10 |
| mac_v | kenvandine: ... so if i install xchat-gnome most of the settings from xchat [~/.xchat] will be used? | 14:10 |
| mac_v | ~/.xchat2 rather | 14:11 |
| mac_v | !test | 14:15 |
| ubottu | yes, I'm alive. | 14:15 |
| pitti | !suicide | 14:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about suicide | 14:16 |
| mac_v | !helping humans | 14:17 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about helping humans | 14:17 |
| kenvandine | mac_v, yes, it uses all the xchat settings | 14:18 |
| mac_v | awesome... /me migrates | 14:19 |
| mac_v | kenvandine: thanks :) | 14:19 |
| kenvandine | woot | 14:21 |
| kenvandine | mac_v, you should grab my source and build it locally :) | 14:21 |
| kenvandine | i added an un-implemented feature that is needed for the indicator plugin | 14:22 |
| kenvandine | https://launchpad.net/~ken-vandine/+archive/xchat-gnome/+packages | 14:22 |
| kenvandine | for the xchat-gnome sources | 14:22 |
| kenvandine | and lp:~ken-vandine/xchat-gnome-indicator/packaging | 14:22 |
| kenvandine | for the plugin sources | 14:22 |
| kenvandine | and just build them both locally for now | 14:23 |
| * chrisccoulson needs to think about what to work on in lucid | 14:24 | |
| mac_v | oh... | 14:24 |
| mac_v | kenvandine: ok cool , I'll do that then in a bit :) ... | 14:25 |
| mac_v | thanks again :) | 14:25 |

| ccheney` | grr link is so slow i can't even sort my email | 15:32 |
| * ccheney` bbl | 15:36 | |
| mvo | ccheney`: hm, have you seen the issues around bug #450569 ? | 15:36 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 450569 in update-manager "package openoffice.org-emailmerge 1:3.0.1-9ubuntu3.1 failed to install/upgrade: " [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/450569 | 15:36 |
| mac_v | seb128: the increasing trend of users are not subscribing to bugs is after the new version of launchpad landed... there is no "subscribe to bug" near the comment section... shouldnt we alteast subscribe the users by default? | 15:36 |
| mac_v | or should this be discussed with bdmurray? | 15:37 |
| seb128 | I think subscribe when commenting should be the default yes | 15:37 |
| mvo | seb128: could I have your opinion on bug #469399 ? is there any harm in just removing a a icon-theme.cache file if its already there? | 15:41 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 469399 in update-manager "Could not install 'gnome-accessibility-themes' & 'gnome-themes-more'" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/469399 | 15:41 |
| seb128 | mvo, no, it's just a cache the gtk-update-icon-cache call will do a new one | 15:43 |
| seb128 | mvo, weird error though | 15:43 |
| seb128 | "gtk-update-icon-cache: Failed to open file /usr/share/icons/Amaranth/.icon-theme.cache : File exists" | 15:43 |
| seb128 | could be that the case got corrupted or something | 15:43 |
| * Amaranth hates that theme | 15:44 | |
| seb128 | lol | 15:44 |
| seb128 | mvo, I think .icon-theme.cache is a temp file though, which could means the cache update fails for this theme | 15:44 |
| mac_v | Amaranth: been hiding a secret theme, eh? ;) | 15:46 |
| hggdh | seb128: good morning, debdiff (karmic) for bug 460050 is attached to the bug | 15:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 460050 in evolution "Pressing Enter or Tab in a new memo line (in memo list) exits Evolution" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/460050 | 15:47 |
| mvo | seb128: hm, ok. so its either a corrupted file or a bug in the theme and a misleading error message? | 15:47 |
| * mvo looks at the source of gtk-update-icon-cache | 15:48 | |
| mvo | is it just me or is epiphany in karmic crashing a lot? | 15:53 |
| seb128 | hggdh, thanks | 15:53 |
| seb128 | mvo, right | 15:53 |
| seb128 | mvo, I think the file starting with a . is a temp file not the cache so the cache update probably failed for a reason there | 15:53 |
| seb128 | mvo, the reason could be that there is something in this theme making the cache update command unhappy | 15:54 |
| seb128 | or a one time bug on the user side | 15:54 |
| seb128 | mvo, dunno about epiphany I use firefox now | 15:54 |
| seb128 | I would not be surprised they use webkit now and it didn't stabilize yet | 15:54 |
| seb128 | ie still new code compared to the gecko version | 15:54 |
| hggdh | seb128: a question: on bug 460710 we now have tasks for Lucid. What am I supposed to do there? | 15:55 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 460710 in gtk2-engines-murrine "Evolution hangs when double-clicking on attachment" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/460710 | 15:55 |
| hggdh | and sorry for bothering you :-) | 15:55 |
| mvo | seb128: I don't use it much, but it crashes for me after ~5 min usually | 15:55 |
| Amaranth | hggdh: well for an SRU you usually want to get the fix into lucid first | 15:55 |
| Amaranth | or at least I was always told to do so | 15:55 |
| Amaranth | and lucid is open now... | 15:55 |
| hggdh | oh | 15:56 |
| hggdh | so should I debuild -S -sa or -S -si? | 15:57 |
| mac_v | mvo: that bug hggdh just pasted is related to the progress bar... [maybe the same is affecting synaptic too] | 15:57 |
| * mvo looks | 15:58 | |
| seb128 | hggdh, nothing for lucid, pitti will pocket copy binaries | 15:58 |
| hggdh | seb128: thank you | 15:58 |
| seb128 | theorically fixes should land in lucid first if we have changes there | 15:59 |
| seb128 | but when the version is the same in karmic and lucid we just copy things | 15:59 |
| Amaranth | ah | 15:59 |
| Amaranth | this I did not know :) | 16:00 |
| Amaranth | then again I've only ever done SRUs after debian import started | 16:00 |
| Amaranth | and I've only done two, I think :) | 16:00 |
| hggdh | Amaranth: I wish I just did not know *this*, but the depth of my ignorance is astounding | 16:00 |
| Amaranth | hggdh: It's ok, I just read way too much | 16:01 |
| Amaranth | So I can tell you a little bit about how a lot of things work | 16:01 |

| seb128_ | internet disconnected and I didn't notice | 16:31 |
| pitti | o/ | 16:31 |
| seb128_ | or rather ip changed and I didn't notice | 16:31 |
| rickspencer3 | asac is on holiday | 16:31 |
| seb128_ | pitti, I guess you didn't get my "not you too!"? ;-) | 16:31 |
| rickspencer3 | bryce, ccheney` | 16:31 |
| seb128_ | pitti, about quilt in g-d-u | 16:31 |
| pitti | seb128_: erm, no? | 16:31 |
| seb128_ | oh right meeting is one hour earlier | 16:31 |
| rickspencer3 | kenvandine, Riddell tkamppeter | 16:32 |
| pitti | seb128_: pkg-utopia standard, sorry; but we don't actually have gdu patches | 16:32 |
| * kenvandine waves | 16:32 | |
| seb128_ | pitti, just noticed that you add quilt use to g-d-u so I added a "not you too!" comment ;-) | 16:32 |
| seb128_ | pitti, yeah, just joking | 16:32 |
| rickspencer3 | shall we start? | 16:32 |
| pitti | let's | 16:32 |
| rickspencer3 | there are two agenda items | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | 1. review goals | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | 2. blueprints/UDS | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | 1 is quick | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | review goals are "due" by today | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | that means objectives plugged into the web site | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | # If you can't get them in by today, let me know and shoot for eow | 16:33 |
| rickspencer3 | # If you don't have goals, no problems. Just think about what you want to write about yourself in your review, and make some goals that will make that review easier to write | 16:34 |
| rickspencer3 | we can talk if you are stuck | 16:34 |
| rickspencer3 | please be patient with the system | 16:34 |
| pitti | erm, those are goals for the _last_ cycle, wasn't it? | 16:34 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, yes | 16:34 |
| pitti | i. e. should just be copy&paste | 16:34 |
| rickspencer3 | sorry, let me back up | 16:34 |
| pitti | everyone should have their goals in the old system already? | 16:34 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, some do, some don't | 16:34 |
| kenvandine | pitti, not all of us did it last time :) | 16:35 |
| pitti | kenvandine: ah, sorry :) | 16:35 |
| === seb128_ is now known as seb128 | ||
| rickspencer3 | so the HR team sent a mail asking people to out their current goals into the new web site | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | we don't have to worry about 2010 goals for a few weeks | 16:35 |
| tkamppeter | hi | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | so if you've got 'em, copy and paste | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | if not, see above | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | don't overanalyze | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | the HR team is working very hard to get a new system up and running for us | 16:35 |
| rickspencer3 | they are very aware of the limitations, etc... and they are working hard to shake out the remaining issues | 16:36 |
| rickspencer3 | so I ask everyone to be patient with the new system | 16:36 |
| rickspencer3 | Riddell, ccheney` if you haven't been to the site and don't know where it is, etc... let me know and I'll help you out in PM | 16:36 |
| Riddell | hmm? I did mine yesterday | 16:37 |
| rickspencer3 | that's #1, unless there are questions, I'd like to turn the mic over to pitti | 16:37 |
| rickspencer3 | Riddell, ok, I'll check it out and follow up with you in PM if necessary | 16:37 |
| rickspencer3 | bryce, ^ | 16:38 |
| rickspencer3 | ok, pitti? | 16:38 |
| pitti | last week's action was for everyone to spend some thoughts about your own goals for lucid | 16:38 |
| pitti | we have two weeks to UDS, and Rick and I want to start setting up and scheduling blueprints | 16:38 |
| pitti | so (1) I'm curious about what you want to do in lucid, and (2) what to talk about at UDS | 16:39 |
| pitti | so I propose we go round and let everyone speak | 16:39 |
| pitti | I'll start | 16:39 |
| pitti | goals: | 16:39 |
| pitti | - Continue halsectomy: move suspend quirks from hal-info to pm-utils, and play with the existing patch to un-hal-ify X.org; goal: no hal installed by default | 16:39 |
| pitti | - make desktop startup faster | 16:39 |
| pitti | - fix lots of bugs, and more of those | 16:39 |
| pitti | so from those, I would like to have those blueprints: | 16:39 |
| pitti | suspend-quirks-halsectomy, xorg-halsectomy, compiz-speedup, nautilus-speedup, panel-speedup | 16:39 |
| pitti | (the first two probably won't need discussion, just as a tool for tracking progress) | 16:40 |
| pitti | so, let's just start from the top of the meeting list | 16:40 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: ? | 16:40 |
| rickspencer3 | I put a list on the meeting page ... | 16:41 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: right, I meant your _personal_ goals | 16:41 |
| pitti | quickly and some such? | 16:41 |
| pitti | (let's talk about the stuff from other teams etc. later) | 16:41 |
| rickspencer3 | right, I was going to say | 16:41 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, I'm not sure what you're asking for | 16:41 |
| rickspencer3 | oh, my personal goals | 16:42 |
| rickspencer3 | gotcha, sorry | 16:42 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: like, do you plan something like quickly for lucid? improvements/new projects/etc.? | 16:42 |
| rickspencer3 | they are already in the wiki ;) | 16:42 |
| rickspencer3 | # Quickly ubuntu-project template enhancements, new templates | 16:42 |
| rickspencer3 | # Quickly itself enhancements | 16:42 |
| pitti | thanks; those map to blueprints pretty well, I guess | 16:42 |
| rickspencer3 | yes | 16:43 |
| pitti | ArneGoetje: ? | 16:43 |
| ArneGoetje | - continue karmic improvements, what has been left over | 16:43 |
| ArneGoetje | for language-selector | 16:43 |
| ArneGoetje | - improve wordlist handling for Chinese in IBus if possible | 16:43 |
| rickspencer3 | ArneGoetje, Riddell - shall we discuss Rosetta + Kubuntu in a blueprint? | 16:44 |
| ArneGoetje | - improve fontconfig settings and default font selection for the desktop | 16:44 |
| ArneGoetje | rickspencer3, Riddell: what needs to be done there? | 16:45 |
| pitti | ArneGoetje: did you already get some feedback about the ibus switch? | 16:45 |
| Riddell | ArneGoetje: stop a rebellion :) | 16:45 |
| pitti | lol | 16:45 |
| pitti | Riddell: like, upstream vs. LP translations? | 16:45 |
| ArneGoetje | pitti: so far positive, some users have trouble with the upgrade from Jaunty | 16:45 |
| pitti | sounds worth a discussion, since it keeps coming up | 16:45 |
| Riddell | and vs kubuntu packagers | 16:46 |
| pitti | noted on the list | 16:46 |
| pitti | ArneGoetje: thanks | 16:46 |
| pitti | bryce ? | 16:46 |
| bryce | heya | 16:46 |
| ArneGoetje | Riddell: I'm a bit detached from that discussion right now... can you update me after meeting? | 16:46 |
| pitti | bryce: lucid-kill-all-checkbox-bugs :) | 16:47 |
| rickspencer3 | that's a karmic update, right pitti? ;) | 16:47 |
| pitti | ArneGoetje: I'll put it on the UDS agenda, seems worth having more people in that | 16:47 |
| bryce | pitti, :-) | 16:47 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: that too | 16:47 |
| Riddell | ArneGoetje: well we have a phone call tomorrow, you accepted the invite I think | 16:47 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, I have one that I would like to suggest to bryce, is this the right forum for that? | 16:47 |
| pitti | sure | 16:47 |
| ArneGoetje | pitti: ok | 16:47 |
| bryce | well, mostly I'd like to make progress against the large count of X bugs, by stabilizing things | 16:47 |
| ArneGoetje | Riddell: yes | 16:48 |
| rickspencer3 | bryce, I think a package that installs everything for a good touch experience would be useful | 16:48 |
| bryce | along those lines, I'd like to get some better bug triaging and diagnosis tools in place | 16:48 |
| bryce | rickspencer3, as in touchscreens? | 16:49 |
| pitti | bryce: do you plan changes on the nouveau/KMS front? | 16:49 |
| rickspencer3 | bryce, yes | 16:49 |
| rickspencer3 | make sure that we have an on screen keyboard that works, etc... | 16:49 |
| bryce | pitti, I am thinking if we were to change that, it should have been changed in karmic | 16:49 |
| pitti | bryce: nouveau? I agree; but there might be some KMS improvements for ATI, etc.? | 16:50 |
| pitti | rickspencer3, bryce: should touchscreen support become a UDS session? | 16:50 |
| bryce | rickspencer3, ok, it might help to have appropriate hardware for that | 16:50 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, I think it's a nice to have, but could become important if someone wants to ship a touch device with Ubuntu | 16:51 |
| rickspencer3 | so, I would like such a session if there is time | 16:51 |
| pitti | sure; let's add it as "low" | 16:51 |
| bryce | pitti, not sure there is enough to warrant having a discussion about it, it'll mostly be a "hook it up and fiddle with it until it works reliably" type of project ;-) | 16:51 |
| rickspencer3 | bryce, there is app selection and settings too | 16:51 |
| pitti | bryce: driver-wise yes; screen keyboard, panel changes, etc. sound more discussion worthy | 16:52 |
| pitti | ok, thanks | 16:52 |
| rickspencer3 | I feel that we can move on and discuss in the blueprint | 16:52 |
| pitti | oh, -ENOCALC | 16:52 |
| pitti | Riddell? | 16:52 |
| pitti | ah, sorry | 16:52 |
| pitti | ccheney`: ? | 16:52 |
| pitti | timeout; Riddell? | 16:53 |
| Riddell | there is a document called Project Timelord linked from kubuntu.org which lists much of what we want to achieve | 16:53 |
| Riddell | - fixing translations issues | 16:53 |
| Riddell | - strategies for publicity, vision, marketing and software branding | 16:53 |
| Riddell | - increase the efficiency of our bug trackers | 16:53 |
| Riddell | - Measures to ensure the continuing quality of our KDE packages | 16:53 |
| Riddell | - improve the integration of Kubuntu-specific tools with KDE | 16:53 |
| Riddell | in general, it's an LTS so we want to do as little as possible, just fixing anything that needs it | 16:54 |
| pitti | Riddell: on that note, would you prefer to set up the kubuntu blueprints yourself, or want me to do them? | 16:54 |
| Riddell | pitti: I'll do them in the next day or three | 16:54 |
| pitti | ok, thanks | 16:54 |
| pitti | Riddell: bug tracker efficiency> I think this should be a whole-group discussion | 16:54 |
| pitti | the one we had on last UDS was pretty good IMHO, and we should collect experience from the last cycle | 16:55 |
| pitti | I'll add that one | 16:55 |
| pitti | ok? | 16:56 |
| Riddell | ok | 16:56 |
| pitti | thanks; kenvandine? | 16:56 |
| kenvandine | ok | 16:56 |
| kenvandine | social from the start | 16:56 |
| rickspencer3 | *cough* | 16:56 |

| rickspencer3 | kenvandine, I'd like to see if we can improve our QA process for new code landing on the desktop | 16:58 |
| kenvandine | pitti, definately :) | 16:58 |
| rickspencer3 | worth a sessin? | 16:58 |

| kenvandine | session with OLS and DX? | 16:58 |
| Zdra | seb128, is it already known if GNOME 2.30 will exist? isn't it still supposed to be GNOME 3? | 16:58 |
| kenvandine | yeah, of course | 16:58 |
| rickspencer3 | but like OLS and Dx stuff, can we help them catch bugs earlier? | 16:59 |
| seb128 | Zdra, read desktop-devel-list and the email from Owen | 16:59 |
| Amaranth | Zdra: gnome-shell and GTK+ will not be ready | 16:59 |
| seb128 | Zdra, they consider they will not be ready for next cycle | 16:59 |
| Amaranth | so 2.30 will just be 2.30 | 16:59 |
| rickspencer3 | pedro_, ^ worth a session? | 16:59 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: +1 for a session | 16:59 |
| pedro_ | rickspencer3, yes, totally | 16:59 |
| Zdra | seb128, Amaranth: oh ok | 16:59 |
| Zdra | fair enough | 16:59 |
| rickspencer3 | pedro_, can you run that session, own that blueprint? | 16:59 |
| kenvandine | rickspencer3, +1 | 16:59 |
| pedro_ | rickspencer3, sure, i'll take that | 17:00 |
| rickspencer3 | pedro_, <3 | 17:00 |
| rickspencer3 | thanks | 17:00 |
| pitti | thanks pedro_ | 17:00 |
| pedro_ | np :-) | 17:00 |
| pitti | pedro_: on that front, anything else you'd like to talk about at UDS? | 17:00 |
| pedro_ | pitti, well I'd like to take a look to our workflow on the bugs side and see we can improve there, but i think you already mentioned it | 17:01 |
| pedro_ | s/we/what | 17:01 |
| pitti | pedro_: right, we'll have a session about this (or two, I think) | 17:01 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| pitti | probably one about workflow/prioritization and one about tools | 17:02 |
| pitti | seb128? | 17:02 |
| seb128 | goals: | 17:02 |
| seb128 | - bring the desktop back to a lts expected quality | 17:02 |
| seb128 | - login speed | 17:02 |
| seb128 | - cleaning in GNOME api use to continue | 17:02 |
| seb128 | specs: gdmsetup-improvements (sound, themes, user list option), review-sound-capplet (the new ones have ui limitations which don't allow some tasks to be done which used to work in hardy), review-desktop-experience (especially indicators workflow), karmic-desktop-quality, gnome3 | 17:02 |
| seb128 | + login speeds spec from pitti | 17:02 |
| seb128 | 17:03 | |
| seb128 | that's it | 17:03 |
| pitti | nice, thanks | 17:03 |
| Amaranth | seb128: I've got some good news for login speed wrt to compiz. I've killed the shell script | 17:03 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, I forgot to mention one | 17:03 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: go ahead, please | 17:03 |
| rickspencer3 | related to pedro_'s | 17:04 |
| seb128 | Amaranth, does that makes a difference? | 17:04 |
| pitti | in general, if anything still comes to your mind, just /msg me | 17:04 |
| seb128 | I would like to discuss what I wrote on my email to the list too | 17:04 |
| Amaranth | seb128: I can't tell, my login speeds are kind of weird | 17:04 |
| pitti | I'll prepare the initial list tomorrow (which won't be frozen in any way yet, but we need to get going) | 17:04 |
| rickspencer3 | launchpad team wants to work with us better regarding our liblaunchpad scripting | 17:04 |
| rickspencer3 | support our efforts there better | 17:04 |
| seb128 | at least having people testing set of features | 17:04 |
| rickspencer3 | of course, I will be pushing for bughugger adoption ;) | 17:04 |
| seb128 | it's annoying that we ship new versions with things like pdf printing or audio cd recording broken | 17:05 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: sounds great; like, the ubuntu-dev-scripts collection, etc.? | 17:05 |
| pedro_ | rickspencer3, like implementing the workarounds we've been doing? | 17:05 |
| pedro_ | what pitti said | 17:05 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, right, they have a repository for scripts, and want to help us contribute directly to launchpadlib if we have unmet needs | 17:05 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: I'll add a session for it then | 17:06 |
| rickspencer3 | tx | 17:06 |
| pitti | ok, thanks everyone for your input; as I said, please /msg me if you forgot something | 17:06 |
| pitti | seb128: "I would like to discuss what I wrote on my email to the list" -> is that an agenda topic, or UDS topic? | 17:07 |
| seb128 | pitti, none of those, rather an out of topic thing to discuss on the channel | 17:07 |
| seb128 | could be for UDS too | 17:07 |
| rickspencer3 | seb128 == crack terminator | 17:07 |
| seb128 | not sure if other people thing it would be a good idea to have set of feature by assigned people | 17:07 |
| seb128 | I don't want that to be too much of a constrain | 17:07 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti, may I mention one thing regarding implementing features in Lucid? | 17:08 |
| seb128 | but like if you use an usb music player try it at every milestone | 17:08 |
| seb128 | if somebody has access to a smb network make sure it keeps working | 17:08 |
| seb128 | etc | 17:08 |
| pitti | rickspencer3: sure; I'm done with my part anyway | 17:08 |
| rickspencer3 | k | 17:08 |
| rickspencer3 | so when thinking about new stuff to implement, please break it down to very "bite size" pieces in you mind | 17:09 |
| pitti | seb128: that sounds like a good idea; also, things like "PDF printing" or "usb music player handlng changed" should probably be announced in the first place; we're pretty bad at this, I think | 17:09 |
| seb128 | that too | 17:09 |
| rickspencer3 | this is because I will be requiring each project to be done in 3 separable chunks | 17:09 |
| rickspencer3 | after UDS, I will ask folks contributing to the desktop to commit to only 4 weeks of work at a time | 17:10 |
| rickspencer3 | and that each 4 week chunk is something complete enough to ship | 17:10 |
| rickspencer3 | we'll discuss lots more later, but I wanted to mention this so people could start thinking about it | 17:10 |
| rickspencer3 | that's all for that | 17:11 |
| rickspencer3 | seb128, did I interupt you, were you finished? | 17:11 |
| seb128 | rickspencer3, I was done with that thanks | 17:11 |
| rickspencer3 | ok | 17:11 |
| rickspencer3 | any other business? | 17:11 |
| pitti | seb128: sorry, didn't read your mail yet, will do | 17:11 |
| pitti | o/ | 17:11 |
| pitti | one quick announcement | 17:11 |
| pitti | please everyone take 5 seconds to do https://launchpad.net/sprints/uds-l/+attend | 17:11 |
| rickspencer3 | hehe | 17:11 |
| pitti | it's very important for us to sensibly schedule specs | 17:11 |
| seb128 | oh, and not sure I will be around for meeting next week | 17:12 |
| seb128 | I'm traveling on monday to join a sprint before uds | 17:12 |
| pitti | seb128: fine, then you'll get all the action items | 17:12 |
| * seb128 hugs pitti | 17:12 | |

| rickspencer3 | any other business? | 17:13 |
| seb128 | no | 17:13 |

| === MacSlow|errand is now known as MacSlow | ||
| cassidy | are you getting actual new bug or just dup? | 17:32 |
| bryce | I know, I'm getting frustrated by the bug influx too | 17:33 |
| bryce | http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Graphs/totals.svg | 17:34 |
| seb128 | cassidy, hard to say, I would say a third is duplicates | 17:36 |
| seb128 | a third is comments about bugs not fixed yet | 17:36 |
| seb128 | and a third are new issues or wishlists | 17:36 |
| seb128 | cassidy, btw, how do you debug empathy not connection to msn where pidgin works? | 17:37 |
| seb128 | cassidy, btw, how do you debug empathy not connection to msn where pidgin works? | 17:37 |
| seb128 | ups | 17:37 |
| seb128 | cassidy, we got quite some bugs about that | 17:37 |
| seb128 | I'm not sure what to do with those | 17:37 |
| seb128 | it's somewhat sucking, empathy guys will bounce back to telepathy-butterfly which is not actively worked | 17:38 |
| seb128 | you can't blame empathy but the result is that the user experience is not what it should | 17:39 |
| * istaz is getting butterfly bug duped again not public bugs, not fun | 17:42 | |
| seb128 | istaz, 90% of the bugs are open right now | 17:42 |
| seb128 | let me check those which are not | 17:42 |
| istaz | seb128: this one isn't https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/459366 | 17:43 |
| ubottu | Error: This bug is private | 17:43 |
| cassidy | seb128, I'd ask for butterfly logs, they should be in the debug window | 17:44 |
| seb128 | cassidy, ok, I think the most recent one was getting a network error error | 17:44 |
| seb128 | but he says he can connect using pidgin from the same box | 17:44 |
| seb128 | istaz, opened | 17:44 |
| cassidy | we can't do anything without logs, really | 17:44 |
| seb128 | istaz, can telepathy-butterfly contain accounts or password informations? | 17:44 |
| cassidy | that's why I wrote this auto-fetch log tool :p | 17:45 |
| seb128 | cassidy, I'm not sure users would appreciate you getting all those login and password infos though | 17:45 |
| istaz | seb128: probably because pidgin handle proxy and http connection and we don't (at least butterfly isn't) | 17:45 |
| seb128 | there is no way you could strip private datas? | 17:45 |
| cassidy | password won't be displayed | 17:45 |
| seb128 | istaz, would those work using haze for msn? | 17:45 |
| istaz | seb128: traceback from apport no, full logs from butterflyC[C yes | 17:46 |
| seb128 | istaz, ok, let me quickly open all crash bugs | 17:46 |
| istaz | seb128: most probably yes | 17:46 |
| pedro_ | seb128, i didn't organized a bug day for previous weeks because of the release, next week i'll do one for the desktop | 17:46 |
| seb128 | pedro_, thanks ;-) | 17:46 |
| pedro_ | seb128, jcastro was asking me for a gwibber one since upstream are coming to uds | 17:46 |
| pedro_ | so time to nudge them about that ;-) | 17:46 |
| seb128 | hehe | 17:47 |
| seb128 | gwibber get a lot of hipe nowadays | 17:47 |
| jcastro | just a lot of bugs | 17:47 |
| cassidy | the new version is incredibly shit | 17:47 |
| and471 | mvo: any problems with the code? | 17:47 |
| istaz | I should probably take a full day to look at thoses bug | 17:47 |
| cassidy | I used to work fine for me and now it's unusable :( | 17:47 |
| seb128 | cassidy, are you coming to uds? | 17:47 |
| Amaranth | bryce: ouch, about 1000 bugs since august | 17:48 |
| cassidy | no | 17:48 |
| pedro_ | i just wish i could quit the application with just one click, rather than closing and then killing the daemon :-/ | 17:48 |
| jcastro | pedro_, that was our own idea I think | 17:48 |
| istaz | I only take a quick look at all the bugs spam and can't hardly keep up since all the info are hidden in the dups | 17:48 |
| seb128 | cassidy, ok, somebody from the empathy or telepathy team coming? | 17:48 |
| jcastro | for the record during the session at UDS for gwibber I begged and cried for developers to help. :-/ | 17:48 |
| seb128 | istaz, sorry about that | 17:48 |
| cassidy | I don't think so | 17:48 |
| istaz | seb128: not your fault | 17:49 |
| Amaranth | I thought apport wouldn't dupe a public but to a private one | 17:49 |
| Amaranth | wait, apport crashes are all private :/ | 17:50 |
| bryce | jcastro, need to gain more developers ;-) | 17:50 |
| jcastro | bryce, yeah, so same boat as everyone else, heh. | 17:51 |
| mac_v | seb128: found bug 414401 , lp bugs team says there is some chance it can be picked up and landed next week., so hopefully you'll be burdened less ;) | 17:57 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 414401 in malone "Automatically subscribe users to bug mail when they post a comment" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/414401 | 17:57 |

| mac_v | hmm! great...! evolution cant play .ogg sounds for mail notifications but is able to play .wav o.0 | 18:00 |
| mac_v | 'Start.ogg': unrecognized audio file format [error 0] | 18:03 |
| chrisccoulson | mac_v - has that ever worked? | 18:05 |
| mac_v | chrisccoulson: when i set a .wav audio file it works | 18:06 |
| seb128 | istaz, opened all the bugs on telepathy-butterfly now | 18:07 |
| istaz | thanks | 18:08 |
| seb128 | istaz, I think I already asked but is there a way to make the difference between a crash and a caught exception in those bug? | 18:08 |
| seb128 | I think you said apport was catching many things which should not | 18:08 |
| seb128 | do you have examples? | 18:08 |
| seb128 | I would like to improve that for lucid | 18:08 |
| mac_v | chrisccoulson: i was also not sure that audio ever worked for notification, but i caught that error when i was debugging something else | 18:10 |
| istaz | don't know how apport catch exception, basically I think that's all the exception provoked by d-bus call and returned to the caller | 18:11 |
| and471 | mac_v: if I want the latest humanity icons, which branch should I use, the elementary art one or the humanity one? | 18:11 |
| mac_v | and471: the latest is humanity , elementary is just for testing | 18:11 |
| and471 | mvo: I thought I removed it | 18:12 |
| and471 | mvo: I shall check | 18:12 |
| and471 | mac_v: so if I want the icons before they come out officially, the elementary branch? | 18:12 |
| istaz | hum no disregard that there is also a whole lot of error which don't make butterfly crash | 18:12 |
| mac_v | and471: not really either... we are just confused a bit right now.. :) | 18:13 |
| mvo | and471: thanks, it maybe bzr playing tricks on me | 18:13 |
| mac_v | and471: not many new icons are done... very rarely... we are taking a breather of sorts ;) | 18:13 |
| and471 | mac_v: okay | 18:13 |
| istaz | seb128: if that's only enabled for dev version that's not really a problem it may help us catch bug we didn't notice before | 18:14 |
| and471 | mac_v: is the elementary branch synced to the humanity one, or the other way around, or it it just random? | 18:14 |
| istaz | it's just annoying for the users | 18:14 |
| seb128 | istaz, it is | 18:15 |
| seb128 | istaz, we turn apport off in stable | 18:15 |
| seb128 | istaz, how can help you to triage the current backlog? | 18:15 |
| and471 | mvo: I looks like it was removed http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~rugby471/software-center/software-store-andrew/revision/256 | 18:15 |
| seb128 | I would like to build a list of most annoying issues this week | 18:16 |
| mac_v | and471: its mostly synced i guess, i try to sync humanity and elementary.... but we are thinking of making some changes to revamp the theme... soo... | 18:16 |
| and471 | mac_v: but I mean if there are changes in one branch, are they synced both ways? | 18:17 |
| mac_v | and471: if the change is in humanity it will be in elemntary too... but not other way around , since several icons are just not final | 18:18 |
| istaz | seb128: what I most need is way to reproduce the problem, failing that logs | 18:18 |
| seb128 | istaz, what logs? do you have a page on how to debug butterfly? | 18:19 |
| seb128 | istaz, and a way to sort bugs between telepathy-butterfly and papyon too? | 18:20 |
| istaz | seb128: in empathy Help > Debug > Select butterfly | 18:20 |
| istaz | not really | 18:20 |
| istaz | complete instruction are on http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/Debugging | 18:20 |
| seb128 | ok thanks | 18:21 |
| seb128 | nothing specific to butterfly out of empathy then | 18:21 |
| istaz | not with the version packaged in karmic | 18:21 |
| seb128 | ok | 18:22 |
| seb128 | let me know if there is things we can do in lucid to improve bug reports | 18:23 |
| istaz | cassidy: do you think there would be a nice way for apport to retrieve the Debug interface logs of Empathy and CM ? | 18:25 |

| chrisccoulson | seb128 - i can't think of any off the top of my head | 20:44 |
| chrisccoulson | i should check the list of open bugs and make sure | 20:45 |
| seb128 | would be nice to get in karmic but not worth an upload by itself either | 20:45 |
| TheMuso` | seb128: Thanks for that. It makes my decision a lot easier. | 20:47 |
| cassidy | istaz, already done :) | 20:48 |
| seb128 | TheMuso`, not my call ;-) | 20:48 |
| seb128 | TheMuso`, but yeah, GNOME3 is likely going to not be there before l+1 anyway so no hurry for lucid | 20:48 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128 - bug 419354 seems to be accumulating quite a few duplicates now. i was going to fix that anyway, although I didn't initially think it was worth a SRU. It seems that quite a few people are reporting it now though, which I find a bit strange | 20:49 |

| chrisccoulson | mclasen - it probably shouldn't crash though should it? shouldn't it exit more gracefully? | 20:52 |
| mclasen | chrisccoulson: in any case, there is no X server going away during login | 20:53 |
| chrisccoulson | mclasen - is it happening during login though? in our users case, they get a crash report when they log in, but that could be for a crash that happened at the end of their last session | 20:54 |
| mclasen | hmm, could be | 20:54 |
| mclasen | the right fix is to make it a session client and get away from the crazy env-var-passing... | 20:55 |
| chrisccoulson | mclasen - i agree | 20:55 |
| chrisccoulson | mclasen - the crash is introduced in the new version because it calls "atexit (seahorse_agent_exit);" during initialization | 20:56 |
| chrisccoulson | it looks like it never used to do that | 20:56 |

| seb128 | hey robert_ancell | 21:54 |
| seb128 | how are you? | 21:55 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, hey | 21:55 |
| pitti | robert_ancell: good morning | 21:55 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, looking forward to getting into lucid... :) | 21:55 |
| robert_ancell | pitti, hey | 21:55 |
| * seb128 is having some ssh issues | 21:56 | |
| seb128 | oh no, it was focus kept by gnome-keyring somewhere | 21:57 |
| seb128 | pitti, feel like approving a sru today still? | 21:57 |
| seb128 | bug #460050 | 21:57 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 460050 in evolution "Pressing Enter or Tab in a new memo line (in memo list) exits Evolution" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/460050 | 21:57 |
| pitti | if it's urgent | 21:57 |
| seb128 | not urgent but it's a frequent crasher | 21:57 |
| pitti | I'm knee-deep in a fight with lvm rules | 21:57 |
| seb128 | it's a online change, debdiff or the bug and uploaded | 21:58 |
| seb128 | no hurry though | 21:58 |
| seb128 | online -> one line | 21:58 |
| pitti | ok, sounds easy; will have a look | 21:58 |
| seb128 | not really one line but trivial | 21:58 |
| seb128 | thanks | 21:59 |
| seb128 | seems there is quite some unhappy users about it | 21:59 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, lucid is open now | 21:59 |
| cassidy | Am I supposed to have a "Ubuntu One" address book automatically created in Evolution? | 21:59 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, \o/ | 21:59 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, did you read my ubuntu-desktop email? | 21:59 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, yes | 21:59 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, ok, so focus is on merging first please then 2.29 ;-) | 22:00 |
| seb128 | and we will need to be selective about changes we take | 22:00 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, party pooper | 22:00 |
| seb128 | lol | 22:00 |
| seb128 | if you have specific things you want to update to 2.29 after rebasing on debian I'm fine uploading | 22:00 |
| seb128 | you will just be responsive for bugs coming from those ;-) | 22:01 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, sure, do you know of many changes that are needed? I'm fixing some totem and rhythmbox ones but most of the stuff you listed were things that will be fixed in lucid | 22:01 |
| seb128 | good work on the gdm cleaning btw | 22:01 |
| TheMuso | robert_ancell: I know that for accessibility and audio, I intend to be somewhat conservative this cycle. | 22:01 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, needed for karmic updates you mean? upstream fixed the totem youtube issue if you want to backport that | 22:01 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, re gdm - yeah I want to get started on lucid so we can close a lot of those | 22:01 |
| seb128 | the git 2.28 has some other interesting changes | 22:01 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, doing youtube issue now | 22:01 |
| seb128 | you might want to take some extra ones there while working on an update | 22:02 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, ok | 22:02 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, gdm, I think gdmsetup need to have options for sound, user list and theme | 22:02 |
| seb128 | users need a way to have a silent boot | 22:02 |
| seb128 | some use their laptop at school or in libraries etc | 22:02 |
| seb128 | user list seems a security concern for some users | 22:02 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, yeah I talked to rick about that - he doesn't see these sorts of changes as suitable for backporting. what do you guys think? | 22:03 |
| seb128 | and theming is frequently requested | 22:03 |
| seb128 | what, the gdmsetup extra options? | 22:03 |
| robert_ancell | yes | 22:03 |
| seb128 | no, it's going to be for lucid | 22:03 |
| seb128 | new strings, etc | 22:03 |
| seb128 | as written on the list karmic is rough but it was a tech change version | 22:03 |
| robert_ancell | oh good. yes, I mean I want to start on Lucid so I can add all those options | 22:03 |
| seb128 | we need to focus early on lucid and not waste efforts to assure quality for lucid | 22:03 |
| seb128 | in my opinion at least | 22:04 |
| seb128 | others are free to disagree ;-) | 22:04 |
| seb128 | we might want to fix the uid issue in karmic though | 22:04 |
| seb128 | I would argue changing back to 500 maybe there | 22:04 |
| seb128 | it will list extra users in some case but not break working configs | 22:05 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, I changed that because someone said they were seeing users they shouldn't!! | 22:05 |
| seb128 | I know, sorry about that | 22:05 |
| seb128 | that's what the debian policy say too | 22:05 |
| robert_ancell | that's a change we're never going to make everyone happy about | 22:05 |
| seb128 | but apparently some people are old linux users than me | 22:05 |
| seb128 | and kept their uid all the way ;-) | 22:05 |
| robert_ancell | A common case seems to be connecting via nfs to other unix boxes so they need to have UIDs 500-1000 | 22:05 |
| seb128 | well the bug suggest using the limit set in the etc config | 22:06 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, yes, agreed | 22:06 |
| seb128 | at least users can tweak it this way | 22:06 |
| robert_ancell | sun made a bunch of changes to make the blacklist etc configurable | 22:06 |
| robert_ancell | so upstream should support such change | 22:07 |
| seb128 | ok good | 22:07 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: You around for our meeting? | 22:07 |
| seb128 | do you think you want to start working on otherwise? | 22:08 |
| rickspencer3 | TheMuso, sorry, on call atm | 22:08 |
| rickspencer3 | 1hr? | 22:08 |
| seb128 | debian merges, 2.29 updates, lucid changes? | 22:08 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, will do | 22:08 |
| pitti | seb128: hm; any chance I could convice you to reupload evolution with a fixed bug ref in teh changelog? (missing #) | 22:08 |
| pitti | seb128: quite a lot of pages and I believe also update-notifier depend on correct syntax | 22:08 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: Fine by me. | 22:08 |
| seb128 | pitti, re-uploading, sorry about that | 22:10 |
| pitti | seb128: thanks | 22:10 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, out of this any plan for the week? you think we should start on 2.29? | 22:11 |
| seb128 | we usually spend before UDS time on SRU and merges | 22:11 |
| seb128 | to not break too much while traveling and being busy drinking^Wspecing | 22:12 |
| seb128 | pitti, reuploaded should be in the queue soon | 22:12 |
| pitti | merci | 22:13 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, does anyone run lucid this early in the cycle? I think it would be good to get some packages done so we can focus on bugs rather than uploading after UDS | 22:13 |
| seb128 | sorry about the # I though the tools were flexible enough to deal with that | 22:13 |
| pitti | robert_ancell: only crazy people do | 22:13 |
| robert_ancell | pitti, that's what I thought :) | 22:13 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, those who do get what they deserve | 22:13 |
| seb128 | ;-) | 22:13 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, pitti, how do we deal with bzr once we've uploaded lucid packages and need to do a SRU? | 22:14 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, we don't use bzr for the sru | 22:14 |
| pitti | there's two options | 22:14 |
| pitti | either just ignore it and don't commit | 22:15 |
| pitti | or create a karmic branch and update Vcs-Bzr: | 22:15 |
| pitti | i. e. /ubuntu -> /karmic | 22:15 |
| robert_ancell | seb128, ok# | 22:15 |
| pitti | for packages that get SRUs often, the latter might be nice | 22:15 |
| seb128 | I usually don't bother but right | 22:19 |
| seb128 | I tend to focus on SRU while I still run the stable | 22:19 |
| seb128 | ie until uds | 22:19 |
| seb128 | and then switch to the new version | 22:19 |
| pitti | robert_ancell: as long as karmic == lucid version, you are welcome to just use the normal trunk, too | 22:20 |
| pitti | which even reflects reality, given that we copy karmic-proposed to lucid in this case | 22:20 |
| robert_ancell | pitti, ok | 22:20 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, do you have any spec or topic you want to discuss for uds btw? | 22:21 |
| seb128 | just being curious | 22:21 |
| seb128 | I know other people will ask you for official records ;-) | 22:21 |
| robert_ancell | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/DocumentScanning | 22:21 |
| robert_ancell | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/UserAccountManagement | 22:22 |
| robert_ancell | and will work on a GDM one too | 22:22 |
| robert_ancell | and interested in default packages (of course) | 22:22 |
| * TheMuso examines the document scanning blueprint. | 22:22 | |
| TheMuso | robert_ancell: scan a document and edit in a word processor implies OCR. | 22:23 |
| robert_ancell | TheMuso, yes - I've listed what I think all users want to do. I don't expect that feature will be implemented/implementable in lucid | 22:24 |
| TheMuso | So we will need an OCR engine in main. | 22:24 |
| TheMuso | robert_ancell: Ok. | 22:24 |
| seb128 | robert_ancell, ok good | 22:24 |
| robert_ancell | TheMuso, but if I can I'd like to get it to work | 22:24 |
| TheMuso | robert_ancell: Right, I am happy to help here. It all depends on what scan stuff openoffice.org-writer supports, particularly the OCR backend it can work with. | 22:25 |
| robert_ancell | TheMuso, cool. every time I look at ooo I just get scared :) | 22:26 |
| TheMuso | Heh I think I would too. | 22:26 |
| TheMuso | You have m interested in what scanning options ooo has. | 22:27 |
| TheMuso | Ok it seems that the scanning stuff in OOo writer is for picture scanning. | 22:28 |
| * didrocks is still striking with the ubuntu-fr remix :/ | 22:38 | |
| seb128 | didrocks, getting issues? | 22:38 |
| didrocks | seb128: yeah, size issue mainly :) | 22:39 |
| didrocks | that's strange, my uncompress squashfs is smaller than ubuntu vanilla one | 22:39 |
| didrocks | but using mksquashfs make the result bigger | 22:39 |
| seb128 | didrocks, weird, should be easier this cycle with documentation in langpacks | 22:39 |
| didrocks | I might not use the magic compression option | 22:39 |
| didrocks | ok, trying to recreate vanilla squashfs | 22:41 |
| didrocks | just to compare size | 22:41 |
| TheMuso | didrocks: What options are you passing to mksquashfs? | 22:44 |
| didrocks | TheMuso: none | 22:44 |
| TheMuso | hrm interesting. | 22:45 |
| didrocks | TheMuso: the only option that seems to be interesting regarding size is -always-use-fragments | 22:45 |
| TheMuso | Right, well the livefs creation script doesn't pass any options to mksquashfs either. | 22:46 |
| TheMuso | Well, there is the -sort option, but that file is empty. | 22:46 |
| didrocks | hum strange as I'm using karmic one | 22:46 |
| didrocks | ok, yeah, recreating the vanilla squashfs give me the same size | 22:47 |
| didrocks | it just seems that the extra space I have, even getting an uncompressed size smaller than compressed one, is less compressable | 22:47 |
| TheMuso | didrocks: What are you adding to the squashfs? | 22:49 |
| didrocks | TheMuso: French translation packages, removing other languages-related ones and a compressed pdf (30 MiB) | 22:49 |
| didrocks | but the sum is 2028 Mio | 22:50 |
| didrocks | and the vanilla squashfs is 2066 | 22:50 |
| didrocks | just seems it's harder to compress the added data… | 22:50 |
| TheMuso | Right. | 22:52 |
| pitti | good night everyone | 22:56 |
| TheMuso | Night pitti./ | 22:57 |
| rickspencer3 | TheMuso, robert_ancell I'm off my call | 22:57 |
| didrocks | good night pitti | 22:58 |
| didrocks | hey rickspencer3 | 22:58 |
| rickspencer3 | hi didrocks | 22:58 |
| rickspencer3 | hope all is well | 22:58 |
| rickspencer3 | looks like a bit more action around Quickly yesterday ;) | 22:58 |
| didrocks | all is well, thanks :) | 22:58 |
| didrocks | yeah ^^ | 22:58 |
| didrocks | your talk was great :) | 22:59 |
| rickspencer3 | heh | 22:59 |
| rickspencer3 | did it not seem vaguely familiar? | 22:59 |
| didrocks | a little ^^ | 23:00 |
| robert_ancell | rickspencer3, ok | 23:00 |
| rickspencer3 | why is GPD driver under graphics? | 23:01 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: ok. | 23:02 |
| rickspencer3 | ok, so desktop team meeting Eastern edition | 23:03 |
| rickspencer3 | first we discussed review stuff, which is not relevant to either of you guys, because you already did it ;) | 23:04 |
| TheMuso | Right. | 23:04 |
| rickspencer3 | then the rest of the meeting, pitti went around and ask us each to discuss potential blueprints that we might want to do for UDS (which is in less than 2 weeks :o) ;) | 23:04 |
| rickspencer3 | so, TheMuso ... thoughts on blueprints? | 23:05 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: At this point, there is nothing for me that is blueprintable, except perhaps getting the interested parties together to discuss how best to enable as much audio hadrware for lucid as possible. | 23:05 |
| rickspencer3 | TheMuso, yep | 23:06 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: My focus for this cycle will be bug fixing, with a lot of this work going to optimizing speech-dispatcher's pulseaudio output code, as that is well overdue to be done. Also making sure a11y works as well as it possibly can everywhere. Whilst upstrea are preparing to move to dbus for a11y, I want to stay with bonobo/orbit for lucid, since it works, and is stable. | 23:06 |
| rickspencer3 | though maybe some discussion of UI may be in order | 23:06 |
| rickspencer3 | TheMuso, what about accessability testing? maybe not worth a session | 23:06 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: Right, I am happy to be in on such discussions, but UI stuff is not my strong point. | 23:07 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: Not worth a session, but I certainly need to get the community stuff happening, which is my plan in the next week and a half before UDS. | 23:07 |
| rickspencer3 | so maybe "Accessibility Community" topic? | 23:08 |
| TheMuso | Yeah thats a good idea. | 23:08 |
| rickspencer3 | ok robert_ancell? | 23:08 |
| robert_ancell | my specs are: | 23:09 |
| robert_ancell | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/DocumentScanning | 23:09 |
| robert_ancell | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/UserAccountManagement | 23:09 |
| robert_ancell | and doing gdm improvements (not yet speced but based off design teams Karmic spec) | 23:09 |
| robert_ancell | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Karmic/LoginExperience | 23:10 |
| rickspencer3 | robert_ancell, right, gdm improvements includes the refactoring we discussed, right? | 23:10 |
| robert_ancell | rickspencer3, yes, will spec this week the details | 23:10 |
| rickspencer3 | wow | 23:10 |
| rickspencer3 | okay, thanks for that | 23:10 |
| rickspencer3 | so, that was the content of the meeting, more or less | 23:11 |
| rickspencer3 | I suppose you'll want to see what other people put in too | 23:11 |
| rickspencer3 | pitti will be compiling and driving us to UDS | 23:11 |
| TheMuso | Great. | 23:11 |
| TheMuso | So to sum up for myself, no new features/new crack, but hardware enablement where possible, and stabilising what we have even more. | 23:12 |
| rickspencer3 | and session with community team regarding accessibility community | 23:12 |
| TheMuso | Yep | 23:13 |
| rickspencer3 | TheMuso, does saying "Accessibility Community" sound stupid? is there a better way to put it? | 23:13 |
| rickspencer3 | for me to put it, I mean? | 23:13 |
| TheMuso | rickspencer3: Probably something like Ubuntu accessibility community | 23:13 |
| rickspencer3 | I'm thinking "the community of people who are passionate about accessibility" | 23:13 |
| rickspencer3 | ok | 23:14 |
| TheMuso | Yeah that works | 23:14 |
| rickspencer3 | thanks TheMuso | 23:14 |
| TheMuso | np | 23:14 |
| wooboy77 | hi! | 23:21 |
| wooboy77 | can someone help me pls? | 23:21 |
| chrisccoulson | wooboy77 - #ubuntu for support | 23:22 |
| jcastro | seb128, I have your battery! | 23:30 |
| seb128 | jcastro, you rock, thanks! | 23:32 |
