shtylman_ScottK: I don't think I will be joining over 20 channels my computer screen is too small :)00:20
ScottKshtylman_: OK.00:20
txwikingerapachelogger: hehe00:56
txwikingerapachelogger: And so I did anyway00:57
JontheEchidnaOk, seriously. Apport is still spewing out retraces for crashers reported on release day :<01:01
txwikingerapport is not very fast,is it?01:02
JontheEchidnaI find new ways to hate it each day01:02
* txwikinger thinks the UDS schedule application is confusing01:14
ScottKJontheEchidna: It should be turned off now.01:32
JontheEchidnathese are backed-up reports being marked as reported the 30th of october01:33
JontheEchidnasome people still seem to have apport enabled, as some do with every release, but this is different.01:34
ScottKYeah, it got left on post-release by accident for a few days, IIRC.01:35
dtchen_those people aren't using Pre-Release Updates, I guess01:36
dtchen_apport (1.9.3-0ubuntu4.1) karmic-proposed  * Add debian/apport.preinst: Clean up after update-manager erroneously enabling Apport01:36
dtchen_update-manager (1:0.126.9) karmic-proposed  * DistUpgrade/DistUpgrade.cfg: - really stop enabling apport during the upgrade (LP: #465619)01:37
txwikingerScottK: Am I supposed to subscribe to the blueprints associated to the sessions I want to attend at UDS?01:40
ScottKtxwikinger: Yes.01:40
txwikingerAh.. I think some of the links (for kubuntu sessions) in the scheduler are leading nowhere01:41
ScottKYou need to find the blueprings.launchpad.net link.  Some of them are linked to wiki pages and that doesn't help.01:42
ScottKtxwikinger: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuLucidSpecs01:42
ScottKThat should take care of things.01:42
txwikingerCan I see my personal schedule somewhere?01:42
* ScottK doesn't recall.01:43
* ScottK uses the main pages linked off of http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-l/01:44
txwikingerYeah.. I have found that.. but I don't think I can really see very well where I am supposed to be at any time01:46
txwikingerand at which times I have nothing yet01:46
ScottKJust to increase the fun factor, there's a bug in the system and some sessions (at least one I found) are double booked in the same room and the second one doesn't show at all.01:48
txwikingerScottK: Hilarious02:16
* txwikinger puts his stuff into a calendar file in Kontact02:19
txwikingerhttp://summit.ubuntu.com/media/lifestream.html is still set for Karmic UDS02:25
shtylman_txwikinger: the sessions you subscribe for should be a darker color in the day view...02:27
shtylman_iirc02:27
shtylman_txwikinger: also, I wouldn't get to hung up on planning all days in advance... I usually do that the night before as new things are always added. And if they do what they did last year (I hope) there will be a projector with the schedule for that day easily accessible02:28
ScottKThe reason to subscribe is so that when they shuffle the schedule, they can try not to double book you.02:29
shtylman_right02:29
shtylman_most deff subscribe to what you really want02:30
Lex79if I add libpulse-dev to build-dep in kdemultimedia, kmix installation complains about package libpulse-mainloop-glib0 is not installed02:50
Lex79I should add to depends or don't we want it?02:51
ScottKWe don't want it.02:53
Lex79perfect, done, thanks :)02:53
txwikingershtylman_: Yeah.. I am not too hung up03:00

lokpestwhats EOL for Kubuntu hardy?04:52
lokpesthttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/HardyHeron/RC/Kubuntu says that Kubuntu Hardy will not be LTS, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubuntu says EOL for Kubuntu Hardy is 2009-10 but my repositories are working fine04:54
ScottKlokpest: The actual EOL announcement hasn't gone out yet.  Since other packages are not at EOL, the repos will still be there, just Kubuntu stuff won't be supported anymore.05:02
ScottKYou can still install KDE from the Dapper repos, but I wouldn't recommend using it.05:03
lokpestok, I thought the EOL was going to be last month...05:03
ScottKI think they are trying to figure out exactly what EOL for Kubuntu, but not Ubuntu means.05:03
lokpestkde-things still works to install here, that why I started to wonder05:03
lokpestaha..05:04
ScottKI suspect the whole Karmic release was a little distracting too.05:04
* lokpest should just get a grip on himslf and move to karmic 05:04
ScottKI confess I have a Dapper desktop I haven't gotten around to updating.05:05
* ScottK is very careful how it gets used, however.05:06
lokpestbut since I intend to do a fresh install, repartion my drives and switch to ext4 it means a lot of personal data saving...05:06
lokpestbut I tried karmic and KDE4 seemed good enough to move to at least05:07
lokpestjust some nuiances that some apps where switched05:08
lokpestlike Konversation...05:08
lokpestI mean... its like the best irc-client ever05:08
ScottKIt's still available.05:17

nixternalgood morning!10:03
lukas__Hello, I upgraded from JJ to KK (thanks devs, KDE seems to be running really better) but Kaffeine seems to produce segfaults. Unfortunately ti lacks backtraces, so I would like to recompile it with dbg flags before reproducing errors. Is there any way how to do in debian/ubuntu way? I now try apt-get source or build-dep and dpkg-buildpackage. Is this right way to get most of information to you?10:30
jussi01morning nixternal10:32
fabolukas__: install kaffeind-dbg package10:36
fabo-d +e10:36
lukas__fabo: I have not found it10:36
lukas__otherwise I would install it10:36
fabolukas__: look at the debian package, you'll find how to generate it.10:37
faboin debian/rules, you should have --dbg-package=kaffeine-dbg10:38
faboin debian/control, you should have kaffeine-dbg package listed10:38
lukas__fabo: I am quite new, but will try10:41
lukas__I mean new to package building10:41
nixternalanyone need a google wave invite?10:43
fabolukas__: sure, don't worry. ask if you need help.10:43
nixternalya, just ask fabo, he is the mastah packageah :)10:44
nixternalspeaking of which, fabo while I was afk for a month, I got an email about krename having a new upstream...did you do it already? if not I will get it packaged up and thrown at you to have a look at and upload10:45
faboas kaffeine maintainer, I could help ;)10:45
fabonixternal: 4.0.1 not uploaded yet10:46
nixternalwant me to package it and put it in svn for you?10:46
faboI could push it now if you have something better to do10:46
nixternalI have nothing to do right now :)10:46
faboprobably trivial changes10:46
nixternalif any changes at all10:47
nixternalok, I will go ahead and grab it then and work it out10:47
faboas you want :D just ping me when ready10:47
nixternalroger that10:47
lukas__fabo: I have source by apt-get source kaffeine, but I do not know what to change in rules (contains just three include lines in version 1.0-pre2)10:50
fabolukas__: wait, i get the sources10:51
lukas__okay10:51
fabolukas__: ok, current ubuntu package still use cdbs so you don't need to update debian/rules10:54
faboyou need to edit debian/control10:54
fabocopy/paste these lines at the end of debian/control => http://paste.debian.net/51502/10:55
lukas__fabo: just to change Source:kaffeine -> Source:kaffeine-dbg ?10:56
lukas__okay10:56
fabolukas__: no, add a kaffeine-dbg (binary) package10:56
lukas__fabo: yes, I see, what after that? debuild ...?10:57
fabolukas__: I guess you'll need to add DEB_DESTDIR in debian/rules10:58
nixternaldh: unable to load addon kde: Can't locate Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/kde.pm in @INC10:58
faboas kmplayer is a single binary package10:58
nixternalfabo: ^^ that one is new to me10:58
* nixternal has gotten so used to cdbs with all of the core packages that he has become a dh dummy10:59
lukas__fabo: kaffeine?10:59
fabonixternal: kde sequence addon exist since debhelper 7.3.16 and pkg-kde-tools 0.5, do you have them ?10:59
lukas__fabo: so something like DEB_DESTDIR=/usr/local/bin ?10:59
jussi01nixternal: black magic... :D10:59
nixternalthat explains everything10:59
fabolukas__: oups sorry, because I have uploaded kmplayer now ;)11:00
fabolukas__: something like DEB_DESTDIR = $(CURDIR)/debian/kaffeine11:00
faborelevant informations are here => http://build-common.alioth.debian.org/cdbs-doc.html#id255086311:01
lukas__ah, good11:01
faboas cdbd detects a 2nd package (kaffeine-dbg), it installs files in debian/tmp11:02
faboand let you with an empty kaffeine package11:02
faboto fix the issue, we use DEB_DESTDIR11:02
lukas__fabo: okay11:03
fabojussi01: cdbs is black magic :p11:03
lukas__fabo: I tried debuild then, but I have some problem with gpg key. It seems debuild thinnk i am original maintainner and seeks for secret key11:08
lukas__fabo: How could I get rid of it?11:08
fabolukas__: do you have a key ?11:10
lukas__fabo: yes, my own :-)11:10
fabodebuild -k0x12345678 -S -sa11:11
lukas__fabo, ok11:12
fabolukas__: indeed, replace by your key ;) but I think you get it11:12
fabolukas__: oups, not -S11:13
fabodebuild -i -us -uc -b should be fine11:14
lukas__fabo, ok, I got it and will try to make it fall11:18

* Quintasan still has his ninja suit, although he's still copying his data19:37
apacheloggerultimatley you only have no markup inside text, so in the best case scenario you could just only make the string itself translatable and add the markup within the app code19:37
apacheloggerwhich is the most sane approach to all this anyway19:37
apacheloggerQuintasan: 1. kubuntu-docs is out of my scope 2. I don't see why we should drop kubuntu-docs translations19:38
amichairapachelogger: true19:38
apacheloggersometimes-wrong-translations > no translations19:38
QuintasanI just though we are moving away from rosetta :P19:38
apacheloggerbut really, that is, and always was, up to the kubuntu-docs dudes19:39
apacheloggernamely jjesse and nixternal19:39
QuintasanThat reminds me I should get into KDE upstream polish tranlators19:39
apacheloggerQuintasan: if our tools would qualify for upstream inclusion, I would move them there and have translations done by kde-l10n, but unfortunately they do no and thus we are pretty much stuck with rosetta19:40
apacheloggerunless we go for no-translation-for-kubuntu-tools, which might even be worse than what comes out of rosetta at times19:40
* apachelogger likes how people complain about ubuntuone not having KDE integration, but yet no one feels like doing anything about it :|19:41
QuintasanI'm missing one curcial thing -> right click on device -> Format19:43
Quintasanso I have to open my console, cd to the dir and do sudo rm -rf * or sudo fdisk19:43
apacheloggerhm19:44
apacheloggerI suppose that should be doable via solid19:44
* amichair misses format from gui too19:44
ScottKapachelogger: Let me see if I understand your view on Rosetta and KDE stuff: It worked kind of OK for Karmic, but we (meaning Kubuntu devs, and mostly you) had to work really hard to get all the way to only kind of doesn't totally suck.  The effort isn't sustainable, so without some way to make it still better with a lot less work from Kubuntu devs, we just can't do it?19:44
ScottKapachelogger: Is that about right?19:44
apacheloggerwrite solid stuff to enable formatting of $FS, then make dolphin utilze this stufffor thumb drives et all19:44
* ScottK wants to make sure he can say it right at the UDS session on Kubuntu translations.19:45
apacheloggerScottK: yes, though as I see it, there is no way to make it less work19:45
apacheloggerthe only solution would be to have someone paid for doing it :P19:45
ScottKapachelogger: The question isn't how much work, but who's work.19:45
apacheloggerreally, my biggest concern is that someone needs to constantly watch what KDE is doing and follow along with our stuff19:46
nixternalQuintasan: if we moved kubuntu-docs away from rosetta, then what do we use?19:48
ScottKIn contrast, in the PPAs where we just upload the KDE translations it works nicely.19:48
ScottKapachelogger: ^^^ correct?19:48
apacheloggerScottK: the translations import is causing overhead on multiple levels ... we need to clone upstream's pot creation tools, we constantly need to have them updated or pot creation might be incomplete, we need to increase the diff of main packages to debian by adding translation domains, if the pot creation fails for some reason, which it will at some point, it will cuase someone to waste time, rosetta exposes us to the threat of19:49
apachelogger quality degration because translators can (at will) change upstream translations....19:49
apacheloggerthe list is long, each issue alone might be minor, but altogether they make upstream cry and the user cry19:49
apacheloggerScottK: aight19:50
ScottKOK.19:50
amichairis the sp-kde gui purposely different than sp-gtk gui?19:50
apacheloggerupstream translation process is a straight forward subject + since core KDE also uses kde-l10n-LANG packages it resembles our lang-packs anyway, so from a deployment point of view the changes from rosetta to upstream-only translations would probably be minimal19:51
apacheloggeramichair: no19:51
apacheloggeramichair: you see, the thing is ... in the past Kubuntu tools have been created just so that they could become unmaintained19:51
apacheloggerso changes from the GTK UIs were not adopted into the KDE UI for quite some of our tools19:52
ScottKapachelogger: I tend to agree.  I just want to make sure I can present the argument well.19:52
ghostcubeehlo peoples :)19:52
amichairapachelogger: I see. so maybe in a different revision we can do some catsup19:52
apacheloggerScottK: aye :)19:52
apacheloggeramichair: very much so, and find a maintainer19:53
ghostcubesup ?19:53
apacheloggerit's not like maintaining those tools means a lot of work, one just would need to subscribe to commits to the trunk branch and adopt GTK changes/enhancements when they occur19:53
apacheloggerwhich is not that ofte really19:53
amichairI think I got the translations fixed, just without bold titles. and both kde and gtk are missing some complex tranlations, like 'Close' and 'Remove'19:53
apacheloggeramichair: merge with trunk19:54
apacheloggerI fixed the close stuff19:54
amichairok, hope there are no conflicts. I hate wasted work :-(19:54
apachelogger*shurg*19:54
apacheloggeryou should work every once in a while to prevent wasted work19:54
amichairwould that be a 'bzr update' or 'bzr merge' or something like that19:54
apacheloggerbzr merge19:55
apacheloggerbzr merge --preview will show you what gets merged19:55
apacheloggerand possible conflicts beforehand19:55

ghostcubeapachelogger: have you tested midori ?19:57
amichairbzr shelve has a bug - it doesn't account for file permission modifications (+x )19:57
apacheloggerghostcube: were I supposed to? Oo19:58
ghostcubenah only a question :)19:58
apacheloggerdidnt19:58
* apachelogger is quite happy with chrome :P19:58
amichairapachelogger: it says 'nothing to do' (taken from %7Eubuntu-core-dev/software-properties/main/ as I was told)19:58
apacheloggerthen no clue why close did not work for you20:01
amichairok, I'll try to figure it out20:02
ScottKapachelogger: amichair isn't going to be able to push to a core-dev branch20:02
* txwikinger forgot how many people in Dallas he knows20:02
ScottKCould be just really poor error handling.  Since nothing to do might be literally correct due to lack of permissions.20:02
amichairScottK: I'm working on my own branch for now, with a dozen fixes ready to be plucked (and more coming!)20:02
ScottKOK.20:02
ScottKGreat.20:02
macowowie20:02
apacheloggerScottK: that does not make merging a bad idea :P20:03
apacheloggermerging with parent is never a bad idea :D20:03
ScottKapachelogger: Agreed.  Just a question of which direction.20:03
amichairsay, is there a way to fake the system locale for a single app? some kde command line option or something?20:04
amichairI can switch my whole desktop to Russian... but then... I don't understand Russian :-)20:05
macoLOCALE=en_US.utf8 <command>20:05
macoer...20:05
macowait20:05
SputLC_ALL20:05
macoi meant LANG20:05
Sputor LC_MESSAGES20:05
Sputdepends on how fine-grained you want to do it :)20:06
ghostcubeapachelogger: midori is way better than chrome20:06
ghostcubepffff20:06
Sputnote that Qt apps determine their local with LC_NUMERIC for some bizarr reason20:06
maco*shrug* put the thingy you want to set first, then an equal sign, then what you want to make it, then a space, then the command ;-)20:06
apacheloggerghostcube: sure it is :P20:07
apacheloggeramichair: KDE_LANG=ru20:07
apacheloggeramichair: KDE_LANG=ru kate for example shoudl start kate in russian20:07
ScottKPersonally I use Konqueror as my web browser almost all the time.20:08
macoapachelogger: why the heck is there a LANG and a KDE_LANG?20:08
apacheloggerKDE_LANG is specific to KDE apps20:08
* Sput has tried rekonq again today, this is shaping up *really* nicely20:08
apacheloggerKDE does not necissarly inherit what the system uses, I really dont know why that is, but there sure must be some reason20:08
apacheloggeryeah, rekonq is getting somewhere usable20:09
apacheloggerbut it still would be missing v9 :P20:09
amichairapachelogger: as in "KDE_LANG=ru kdesudo ./software-properties-kde" ?20:09
Sputv9?20:09
* apachelogger needs superior js handling due to all the ajax apps he is using20:09
Sputalso it misses adblock :20:09
Sput:/20:09
apacheloggerSput: v8+1 .. chromes javascript engine20:09
Sputah20:09
Sputwell, chrome I deinstalled again20:10
Sputtoo bloaty, too much NIH20:10
apacheloggeramichair: probably more like kdesudo -- KDE_LANG=ru ./software-properties-kde20:10
apacheloggeramichair: BUT20:10
apacheloggeramichair: sp does not use KDE translations only20:10
txwikingerScottK: Someone from KDE was talking about the translation stuff to me a couple of weeks ago20:10
macoSput: nih?20:10
macooh20:10
Sputnot invented here20:10
apacheloggeramichair: in fact the better part of translations comes from lowlevel python-gettext20:10
apacheloggerno clue how to influence that20:10
Sputthem using something for their UI that doesn't fit into your style20:10
ScottKtxwikinger: Yes?20:10
Sputon neither KDE nor gNOme20:10
Sputthey should've just used Qt :/20:11
* apachelogger wishes there was no freaking chrome at all :P20:11
apacheloggernothing to fit in20:11
apacheloggerSput: they knew gtk and ben is a GTK fanboi :P20:11
* apachelogger finds the i-know-foobar approach rather silly and dangerous though20:12
* apachelogger is planing to use that as an argument in his upcoming pre-project decision making discussion 20:12
Sputsee, that's a major reason for me not using chrome20:13
amichairapachelogger: none of the above work. I see a dialog starting to open and then disappearing, and that's it.20:13
Sputsame reason I won't use Firefox if I can help it20:13
apacheloggerdeciding for what is best suited rather than what is known should provide for much more solid project output20:13
apacheloggeramichair: you better google on how to change the language for python-gettext then20:14
amichairit's not that it doesn't translate in the latter case, it doesn't even open20:14
apacheloggerSput: that is more political than anything else though20:14
Sputapachelogger: of course20:15
apacheloggeramichair: it might be because the KDE i18n stuff goes for ru but python-gettext goes for whatever your system local is20:15
amichairlooks like it uses the regular system env vars20:16
amichairhmmm maybe I need to install the language packs? how do I do that?20:17
apacheloggeramichair: kdesudo qt-language-selector20:18
apacheloggereh20:18
txwikingerScottK: Well.. it was on a similar line. The opinion was that rosetta creates a lot of problems20:19
apacheloggeramichair: kdesudo qt-language-selector --mode install20:19
ScottKtxwikinger: OK.  Make sure you're signed up for the Kubuntu translation session.20:19
txwikingerI think I have20:19
apacheloggeramichair: kdesudo -- qt-language-selector --mode install20:20
ScottKOK.  Good20:20
txwikingerYes I have20:20
apacheloggeramichair: that should work for real :D ... then just select russion and say install20:20
txwikingerI think I have signed up to most Kubuntu sessions20:20
apacheloggerScottK, txwikinger: rosetta is the top reason for upstream to not like us really20:21
apacheloggerwithout rosetta they would have problems findings stuff that does not apply to other distros either (not that it would make that stuf any better)20:22
ScottKapachelogger: That's fine.  I have to find ways to express it that may make sense to Ubuntu translations people.20:22
txwikingerapachelogger: Well and some issues with translation standards20:22
apacheloggerthx process in general20:22
apacheloggerit's not like in the past one single part of the process failed, but every part failed at some point20:23
txwikingerI think some issues are somehow a deadlock in some ways20:23
apacheloggerlike if import fails, translators cant do magic, then there are translations that are just of low quality20:23
apacheloggerthen the lang-pack generation can fail20:23
apacheloggeretc.20:23
* txwikinger doesn't really like turfwars..we have enough work to be done20:24
apacheloggervery trye20:24
apacheloggertrue even20:24
amichairapachelogger: I found what works: "LANG=ru kdesudo ./software-properties" (or with LC_ALL instead of LANG). the other combinations don't work20:30
apacheloggerk20:31
apacheloggeranyone knows if we have Amarok 2.2.1 packages ready?20:31
amichairapachelogger: remove/reset/close buttons not translated.. u sure u pushed ur changes?20:31
amichairwell at least I'm out of virtualbox, so should be a bit nicer environment :-)20:32
apacheloggeramichair: very much so, check with launchpad20:32
apacheloggermaybe KDE does not like LANG but still wants KDE_LANG :P20:33
apacheloggerclose and remove are most defenitely handled via KDE20:33
amichairbtw they were not translated in gtk either20:34
amichairanyway, if u say it works, I won't touch it :-)20:34
Quintasanwhat permissions I should have on gpg.conf?20:35
apacheloggeramichair: http://aplg.kollide.net/images/osiris/snapshot050.png20:35

apacheloggerwhich would be weird really20:35
apacheloggerQuintasan: 60020:36

Quintasanapachelogger: Were you attending school properly :>?21:14
ryanakcaapachelogger: ... OK. So, you want the website to display itself in the language requested by the browser, resorting to english if not available?21:14

* txwikinger did21:16
apacheloggerand certainly not about the personal background of copernicus21:16
amichairapachelogger: ok I see ur changes on a fresh vbox from trunk. it throws an exception... outside the vm (hybrid languages?) the close/remove buttons still not translated, but some of the groupbox labels are21:16
apacheloggerryanakca: yes21:16
amichairapachelogger: I did similar change, but slightly different21:16
apacheloggerryanakca: additionally, content/news should be english unless localized versoin is available21:16
Quintasanryanakca: give me a ping when it's ready to be translated :P21:17
apacheloggeramichair: exception?21:17
apacheloggermaybe I pushed too much :D21:17
amichairapachelogger: do u think it would be better to update the ui file to have the exact same strings as the gtk version (easier to track) and then just remove the markup in the code? instead of adding the markup and translating and removing?21:17
Quintasanhmm, I expect to be done with copying data in about 2 hours, so I will get back to work in three hours21:17
amichairapachelogger: (that's the approach I took when I fixed the same thing)21:18
apacheloggeramichair: actually I think former is more difficult to update since yo have to edit the UI rather then the code :P21:18
* apachelogger finds the UI files a waste of time for standard UIs really21:18
apacheloggeralso, technically the UI files are wrong then21:19
apacheloggerbecause the titles of QGroupBoxTabs do not support richtext21:19
apacheloggertechnically :D21:19
amichairapachelogger: of course, but it's just to match it up with gtk version, which has its own file requiring update... plus there are a whole bunch of strings which are still not properly translated this way (look in other tabs)21:20
=== emma_ is now known as emma
apacheloggeramichair: that is all workaround21:20
amichairapachelogger: in any case it's a workaround...21:21
apacheloggeramichair: what should be done is that both the GTK and KDE UI implement an abstract UI which dictates the strings21:21
apacheloggerno reason for the KDE UI to have working around that string21:21
ryanakcaapachelogger: I think we'll want http://drupal.org/project/l10n_client21:21
apacheloggerjust have the abstract UI dictate the string/translated string and be done with it21:21
amichairapachelogger: true, but the gtk version also has the markup and accelerators, how would u deal with that?21:22
apacheloggerryanakca: if it does exaclty that :) ... I seem to remember that something we used at amarok back in the days did not fallback to english content21:22
apacheloggerryanakca: that would be a PITA IMHO21:22

apacheloggerthat was back in the insanity dev days21:36
apacheloggercause insanity was female I have been told :D21:36
apacheloggerJontheEchidna:   * Initial release. (LP: #)21:36
jussi01apachelogger: ubottu is female21:36
txwikinger~kubuntu21:36
apacheloggerthere is a numba missing :P21:36
JontheEchidnathat's because I never filed the packaging bug :P21:36
JontheEchidnathere needs to be a better system for that21:37
apacheloggerjussi01: you are just trying to raise the female ratio :P21:37
JontheEchidnalike just tracking it all at revu21:37
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: drop it completely21:37
jussi01!gender | apachelogger21:37
ubottuapachelogger: yes, I can confirm I am a female bot :)21:37
apacheloggerjr never files them21:37
* apachelogger finds them uber useless as well21:37
apacheloggernot that anyone would check in lp beforehand21:37
JontheEchidnabtw, dh --with-kde is totally untouched by rosetta mangling :D21:37
apacheloggeresply not if they are new to ubuntu21:38
JontheEchidnawhich means when main kde modules start using it things will break \o/21:38
apacheloggerhrrrhrrrr21:38
apacheloggerScottK: take note of that21:38
apacheloggerneed to investigate a whole new system21:38
JontheEchidnathe whole lang stack will need ported to dh721:38
JontheEchidnasince the whole point is to disuse cdbs21:38
JontheEchidnaa cdbs dependency will then be yet another difference from debian21:39
apacheloggeroha21:39
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: copyright is wrongish21:39
JontheEchidnawell, we won't have to rewrite the shellscripts, but...21:40
apacheloggerat least touchpad.cpp is BSD, not GPL2+21:40
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: the shell scripts are from upstream anyway21:40
JontheEchidnawhich we have in pkg-kde-tools as to not build-depend on kdesdk-scripts I assume?21:40
JontheEchidnaalso, don't you just love it when the license header fails to mention what license it is?21:41
apacheloggeryes, yes21:41
apacheloggerthough21:41
apacheloggernot sure on the former21:41
apacheloggerkdesdk by default does not include them scripts I think21:42
apacheloggerat least it did not in 4.1 or so21:42
JontheEchidnaextract-messages.sh is at least in kdesdk-scripts21:42
apacheloggeroh21:42
ScottKJontheEchidna: +1 for tracking it all at REVU.  There's no rule that requires a needs-packaging bug.21:42
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: might be because of Xdep ...21:42
apacheloggerkdesdk building would then depend on kdesdk-scripts21:42
apacheloggerwhich is technically wrongish21:42
JontheEchidnaoh, yeah21:42
JontheEchidnaSo, upstream kcm-touchpad needs to ship a copy of the BSD license as COPYING.BSD?21:43
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: where is Ariel Constenla-Haile  coming from?21:44
apacheloggerno ref in the source at all21:44
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: no, BSD is always a complete copy of BSD anyway :D21:44
JontheEchidnaum, wrong copy/paste I guess21:44
JontheEchidnaoh, yay21:44
ScottKNo requirement for a separate file, just that it be in there somewhere21:44
JontheEchidnawill a snippet like: http://paste.ubuntu.com/318902/ be fine for the packaging?21:47
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: nope, it is not a standard 3-clause BSD21:48
JontheEchidnaso I need to give a copy of the license used in debian/copyright instead?21:49
apacheloggeri.e. what is in common-licenses differs from what the source file actually says, so youll need to use what the source says and not mention the common-licenses21:49
JontheEchidnaok21:49
apacheloggersince latter does not apply21:49
ScottK+121:49
apacheloggerthat is the tricky thing about BSD, you need to be careful if it is really the good ol standard BSD and only then you can refer to the common license21:49
ryanakcaJontheEchidna: Why disuse cdbs?21:50
JontheEchidnano point in using it if you're using dh721:50
ryanakcaJontheEchidna: It takes care of quilt and cmake and whatnot automagically?21:51
ScottKryanakca: More like no point in continuing to use it.21:51
JontheEchidnathat would be like using dpatch and quilt at the same time21:51
ScottKryanakca: dh 7 does now too.21:51
JontheEchidnathat's source format 3.0 (quilt) that does that, I think21:51
ScottKThat too21:51
ryanakcaAh, cool. I'll switch to dh7 for bangarang then21:51
apacheloggerall hail source format 3.021:51
* apachelogger just likes it21:51
* apachelogger doesnt like how long it took to come up with that21:52
JontheEchidnasoyuz doesn't like it though :(21:52
apacheloggerpoor old soyuz shoud support .orig.tar.xz really :P21:52
apacheloggershould have since 0.1 IMHO21:53
ScottKJontheEchidna: That's because it's only been a squeeze release goal since before Lenny was release, so not enough time for LP developers to anticipate they'd need to support it.21:53
JontheEchidnaIt's not like they had over a year's notice [/sarcasm]21:54
JontheEchidnaup goes kcm-touchpad_0.3.0-0ubuntu1 mk. III to revu21:55
JontheEchidnabah, it looks like all of the files are using BSD21:56
txwikingerI year notice? What is that? NASA?21:57
* apachelogger thinks that soyuz is the best component of launchpad, despite not supporting source format 3 yet21:57
JontheEchidnanot saying much, that is21:57
* ScottK suspects apachelogger has not looked at the soyuz source.21:59
apacheloggerI did not21:59
* apachelogger does not want to either :P21:59
* ScottK hasn't dared, but hears horror stories from those brave enough to look.21:59
apacheloggerI am a launchpad user and I want it to stay that way21:59
* ScottK too21:59
apacheloggerlooking at python always makes me quite bitchy21:59
* txwikinger likes some of the visual effects of lp and will look at the source at some time22:00
EagleScreenis plasma-widget-networkmanagement (karmic) expected to work with a WPA-PSK [TKIP] net?22:04
ScottKEagleScreen: I am using WPA Personal. I don't recall for sure if that's TKIP, but I think it is.22:05
apacheloggerTKIP is an encryption algorithm22:06
* ScottK knows, but KNM hides it, so it's hard to tell.22:07
apacheloggerWPA-PSK = WPA pre shared key = WPA Personal; TKIP = temporal key integrity protocl = encryption algorithm22:07
apacheloggerthe other popular algo for WIFI would be AES22:07
apacheloggerthough TKIP is much more popular AFAIK22:07
ScottKEagleScreen: I'm pretty sure I'm using TKIP.22:08
apacheloggermost likely ... http://compnetworking.about.com/b/2008/08/21/aes-vs-tkip-for-wireless-encryption.htm suggests that TKIP is more widely supported but AES is superior22:08
apacheloggernot that it would mention any sensible data upon he bases the claim that AES is the superior encryption :P22:09
dtchen_TKIP is enabled by default for most consumer home wireless "routers"22:09
dtchen_all the WPA attacks so far have exploited flaws in TKIP22:09
amichairwhat gui diff+merge util do u recommend? kcompare seems to be read-only :-(22:09
apacheloggeramichair: bzr qdiff, bzr qmerge ... but I think that qmerge supports preview righ tnow22:11
apacheloggeralso, I am not sure what you mean with read-only22:11
apacheloggerdtchen_: so he is calling AES superior because no one found and exploited a flaw in AES yet?22:12
* apachelogger finds it hard to believe that AES is flawlessly implemented everywhere :D22:12
dtchen_apachelogger: I don't know why he would say that AES is superior22:13
dtchen_the flaws haven't exploited anything in AES *yet*22:13
dtchen_s/flaw/attack/22:13
* amichair thought TKIP is just switching keys often (vs. AES which is proper encryption)22:13
ryanakcaScottK:  Should I place bangarang under Applications/Sound or Applications/Video in the menu file? I can pick one of the two but bangarang is as much a music player as a video player...22:14
ScottKryanakca: How about multimedia?22:14
ScottKThat's where I see stuff now.22:15
QuintasanDo we have a package ready? I'd like to test it22:16
ryanakcaScottK: The multimedia section doesn't exist according to the Debian Menu sub-policy, http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/menu-policy/ch2.html ... bring it up on debian-devel?22:17
ScottKryanakca: Oh, for Debian menu, I'd put it in both.22:17
ScottKThen let your sponsor tell you if you're wrong.22:17
ryanakcaQuintasan: of? bangarang? Not yet, but it builds without much hassle. Just make sure you have libtag1-dev and kdemultimedia-dev installed...22:18
Quintasanryanakca: thanks22:18
apacheloggeramichair: proper encryption would still fail at the implementation22:18
ryanakcaQuintasan: I'm reading into dh7 to figure out how to convert my three line CDBS rules to dh7 rules.22:18
apacheloggeramichair: so IMHO it does not really matter anyway :P22:18
Quintasanryanakca: dh7, you are reading man pages or some tutorial?22:19
apacheloggerryanakca: %:22:19
apacheloggerdh --with kde $@22:19
ryanakcaapachelogger: thanks22:19
apacheloggerregular building (i.e. gnu configure) would be the same, just without the --with kde22:19
ryanakcaapachelogger: Still need the make #! at the top?22:19
apacheloggerryanakca: yes22:19
apacheloggerryanakca: also see man dh22:20
ryanakcaapachelogger: thanks22:20
apacheloggerIIRC the manpage also mentions how to override certain parts of the building22:20
apachelogger(i.e. enhance your clean rule and what not)22:20
QuintasanI always wanted to learn dh but man pages were not so clear for me22:20
amichairapachelogger: iirc the NIST standards (or whatever they're called today) include unit tests of sorts, so it's hard to mess the implementation (though I'm sure many still do :-) )22:21
ScottKIt's hard to mess it in the known ways that the tests look for.22:21
ScottKGenerally plenty of unkown ways.22:22
apacheloggerunit tests also hit the limitations of human perfection :P22:22
ScottK...n...22:22
amichairScottK: those would be attacks on the algorithm, not the impl :-)22:22
ScottKamichair: Not at all.  The tests test as much of the implementation as they test.  Generally it's not 100%.  This is stunningly difficult to achieve with any non-trivial program.22:23
amichairScottK: very true, but hash/enc algorithms in particular are different in that sense... the odds of managing to write an incorrect hash function implementation and still manage to get 3 test cases right is soooooo small....22:24
Quintasanargh22:24
apacheloggeroh wellz, debian managed to mess up openssl, didnt they?22:24
apacheloggerQuintasan: whats up?22:24
* apachelogger gives Quintasan a hug22:24
amichairapachelogger: good point :-) (or rather :-( )22:25
Quintasanapachelogger: I'm trying to bite dh7, reading man is quite not what I expected, looks like I know almost nothing on dh: P22:27
Quintasandh $@ <-- srsly, wtf is does?22:27
apacheloggeranyone using ncpfs actively?22:27
apacheloggerQuintasan: dh WHATEVERARGUMENTSRULESGETSSTARTEDWITH22:28
apacheloggernot that it would matter in particluarly, just always use dh $@ :P22:28
ScottKJontheEchidna: You're upstream now for Quick Access widget, right?22:29
Quintasanstill, I need a noobs guide for dh :P22:29
QuintasanI always used pkg-kde-tools :P22:29
apacheloggerQuintasan: what could be more nooby then that?22:30
Quintasanapachelogger: I need to actually work on something to understand it, reading ain't enough for me :P22:32
Quintasanapachelogger: I never used dh thingies because all stuff I packaged was KDE and I just use pkg-kde-tools rules and it worked :P22:33
ScottKSo if I want to stop using Gimp and switch to something KDE, what do I switch to?22:36
ryanakcaWhat do I need apart from pkg-kde-tools for  dh --with kde to work?22:36
ryanakcaScottK: Krita?22:36
ScottKryanakca: That's likely all you need.22:36
ScottKThanks.22:36
ryanakcaScottK: http://paste.debian.net/51547/ ... :/22:37
ScottKryanakca: You need a newer debhelper22:38
ryanakcaScottK: Available from where... lucid? I have 7.3.15ubntu3 installed, which appears to be the most recent one in Karmic...22:40
ScottKLikely22:40
Quintasanryanakca: should be fine22:40
Quintasanryanakca: I just checked if debhelper was >= 722:40
* ryanakca wonders why his connection's speed has dropped to 16.3kB/s22:41
JontheEchidnaScottK: correct22:44
ScottKJontheEchidna: Feature request: It'd be nice to gain the ability to right-click and then delete/trash files as I often notice things I should get rid of, but I hate to fire up Dolphin to deal with it.22:45
JontheEchidnaScottK: in theory it should follow dolphin settings in that regard22:45
ScottKJontheEchidna: In practice, I don't have it.22:46
JontheEchidna:(22:46
Quintasandh_auto_build <-- in which part of rules I'm supposed to put this?22:46
ScottKJontheEchidna: I do have it in Dolphin.22:47
JontheEchidnahas plasma been restarted since it was enabled in dolphin? That's the only obvious reason I can think of to explain it22:48
QuintasanJontheEchidna: same here, I have it in dolphin but not in QA, restarted plasma three times22:49
JontheEchidnameh :(22:49
JontheEchidnaoh, the feature is only in trunk, which I have not had time to mold into something releaseable22:59
ScottKJontheEchidna: OK, so we get it for Lucid.  Lovely.22:59
JontheEchidnamaybe? dunno. I'll have to find time to work out the regressions23:00
JontheEchidnaI had been meaning to do a new release for karmic but nothing happened :(23:01
JontheEchidnaI will try though23:01
* txwikinger is starting to make dinner plans for next week23:06
Quintasando I really need to provide email to contributiors of a package? especially when I can't find em?23:12
ScottKQuintasan: For debian/copyright you aren't generally obligated to look beyond what's in the source.23:14
QuintasanScottK: No emails in source23:14
QuintasanA general contact email would be enough23:15
ScottKIf that's all you have23:15
Quintasanbug #192989  is laying around but I don't think it's wise to package this, ppl on #rockbox told me that they tend to make backwards incompatible changes so we either want a PPA for this or just send users to RB Wiki23:22
ubottuLaunchpad bug 192989 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] Rbutil (Rockbox Utility)" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19298923:22
QuintasanJontheEchidna: ^ Should I close it or do something else with this?23:23
ScottKI'd leave a comment to that effect.23:24
ScottKI wouldn't close it because that just makes it harder to find.23:24
DarkwingDuckYES! My desktop is finally up and  running23:24
QuintasanScottK: so leave it as is and put a comment, kay23:25
