apachelogger_embedding python in c is quite ugly :|15:35
jbichaLucid will likely ship with KDE 4.4, right?15:38
apachelogger_jtechidna: TBH, I find it uberweird to have the notifier query for new release itself :S15:42
* apachelogger_ is wondering how the gnome does it15:42
apachelogger_jbicha: yes15:42
jbichacool, thanks15:42
apachelogger_jtechidna: knh could execute /usr/share/pyshared/UpdateManager/check-meta-release.py parse it's output and do stuff15:45
francisco_tIs the ppa "firefox kde integration" from kubuntu-dev?15:48
jtechidnathat would be much better than writing our own dist-upgrade checker fetcher15:48
jtechidnafrancisco_t: technically no, though the maintainer has made contributions to Kubuntu15:48
=== jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: the thing is, either way it eats CPU cycles even though it does not need to, since kpk already does that for update checking too, doesnt it?15:50
JontheEchidnadist-upgrade checking? as far as I know the apt packagekit backend can't do that15:51
francisco_tok15:51
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: well, it should :P16:08
glatzorJontheEchidna, the apt backend reuses the upgrade checker which is used by update-manager16:08
glatzorJontheEchidna, if it doesn't work feel free to fill a bug16:08
apachelogger_glatzor: so it would notify about distribution updates?16:09
glatzorapachelogger_, it supports the GetDistroUpgrades method PackageKit16:10
glatzorapachelogger_, it is up to the client tool to call this16:10
apachelogger_oh16:10
* apachelogger_ is wondering if kpk can do that yet16:10
glatzorapachelogger_, I don't know.16:11
apachelogger_glatzor: thanks for that information, saves me from reinventing the wheel :)16:11
glatzorapachelogger_, you are at uds?16:11
apachelogger_glatzor: nope16:11

=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
apachelogger_sweet16:18
apachelogger_glatzor: kpk implements getdistroupgrades :)16:18
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: http://aplg.kollide.net/images/osiris/snapshot053.png16:18
apachelogger_goes for the gtk UI though16:20
apachelogger_might only be because I got that installed as well16:20
glatzorapachelogger_, I don't know how to check if the upgrade script was started from KDE16:22
apachelogger_glatzor: check for env KDE_FULL_SESSION16:23
apachelogger_should be sufficient enough to hold on to IMHO, apturl also uses that to find out what UI to start16:24
glatzorapachelogger_, you want to provide a patch? The script is located in data/pk-upgrade-script.sh in the PackageKit git repository16:24
apachelogger_glatzor: can look at it certainly :)16:24
JontheEchidnasweet16:24
glatzorThanks apachelogger_  it is simple bash script16:24
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: please nuke that bit of the knh todo :P16:28
JontheEchidnaI would if X would start, but it won't because / is for some reason being mounted as read-only16:34
JontheEchidnaso I'm on windows :(16:34
apachelogger_hum16:34
apachelogger_glatzor: is it intent behaviour that the script gets launched with somewhat cleaned env vars?16:35
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: cool :D16:35
JontheEchidnaas if to mock me, rekonq 0.3.0 was released right after I got borked :(16:35
glatzorapachelogger_, I havn't got any idea16:36
glatzorapachelogger_, kpackagekit cleans up the env?16:36
apachelogger_maybe16:36
apachelogger_well, its not even clean completely16:37
glatzorapachelogger_, you would have to talk with dantti16:37
apachelogger_just everything that get set in kde's startup script is left out16:37
apachelogger_glatzor: ok :)16:37
glatzorapachelogger_, sorry, but I am not familiar very well with kpackagekit and KDE at all :)16:37
apachelogger_understandibly16:37
JontheEchidnaAny idea how we'll handle update quirks?16:38
apachelogger_glatzor: do you have an env var DESKTOP_SESSION?16:38
RiddellMamarok: don't waste too much time on grumpy people16:38
* apachelogger_ is not sure if that is set by kdm or our X scripties16:38
RiddellMamarok: although your patience is very admirable16:38
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: update quirks?16:38
apachelogger_JontheEchidna: like broken X due to readonly /? :P16:38
JontheEchidnayeah, update-manager has support for update quirk scripts16:38
apachelogger_no clue what that is really :)16:39
JontheEchidnahmm, lemme find an example16:39
apachelogger_dantti: ping16:39
apachelogger_glatzor: I could use DESKTOP_SESSION, but I am not sure that is 100% accurate16:39
apachelogger_KDE_FULL_SESSION would defenitely be better16:39
danttiapachelogger_: pong16:40
JontheEchidnaapachelogger_: search for quirks here: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+changelog16:40
JontheEchidnabasically scripts to work around potential problems16:40
Riddellyou can't depend on DESKTOP_SESSION at all16:40
apachelogger_dantti: does kpk clear the env vars when launching a dist-upgrade?16:41
apachelogger_or do some other weird magic that prevents KDE env vars from appearing16:41
macoRiddell: we have a spec for a photo?16:41
apachelogger_Riddell: how so?16:41
danttiapachelogger_: what's the use case? i mean do you install a package that needs some env vars?16:42
apachelogger_dantti: distribution upgrade, not regular package upgrade16:42
Riddellmaco: it's the most important one.  location: rooftop hot tub16:42
macoRiddell: NO16:42
Riddellapachelogger_: because it's just set by the name of /usr/share/xsession/foo.desktop file16:43
apachelogger_Riddell: I only need to check if it is kde16:43
bbigrasdebfx: ping16:43
Riddellapachelogger_: then use KDE_FULL_SESSION=true16:43
maco1) i didnt bring my swimsuit 2) im not wearing a swimsuit around all you men 3) no pictures of me in swimsuit on the internet16:43
danttiapachelogger_: hmm what's a distribution upgrade? how do you see the difference?16:43
apachelogger_Riddell: can't because it is lost somewhere in the invocation process16:43
Riddellmaco: oh ok, we'll just do it from the balcony on the roof16:43
apachelogger_dantti: for distribution upgrades a script gets executed which then tries to figure out what tool to launch for the present distribition16:44
macoi call dibs on standing nowhere near the railing16:44
danttiapachelogger_: ah, k, .. :P16:44
maco(im afraid of heights)16:45
apachelogger_dantti: problem is... the only reliable thing to do on ubuntu vs. kubuntu is to check the KDE_FULL_SESSION env var, which for some reason, is not visible to the upgrade script16:45
danttiapachelogger_: i think you are talking about things like apt-get dist-upgrade16:45
* apachelogger_ is talking about upgrading from Kubuntu 9.10 to 10.0416:45
apachelogger_i.e. from one distro version to another16:45
danttiapachelogger_: ok, but in *buntu world i guess there is more than just apt-get dist-upgrade right?16:46
apachelogger_dantti: do-release-upgrade16:47
apachelogger_which is invoked by the pk-upgrade-distro.sh script from packagekit16:47
apachelogger_hence my approach was to enhance said script to launch do-release-upgrade with the appropriate arguments for KDE16:47
danttiapachelogger_: ok, well if it was packagekit then the DBus activation cleans all env vars before calling it, but in kpackagekit case this shouldn't happen..16:47
MamarokRiddell: thank you :)16:48
danttiapachelogger_: maybe kunique application does something like that..16:48
apachelogger_oh16:49
danttiapachelogger_: hmm probably the smartIcon showed you the distro upgrade and it is DBus activatable..16:49
apachelogger_dantti: it appears that it is working when launching the upgrade from within kpk itself16:49
danttithus we have a problem..16:49
apachelogger_but not when clicking the ugprade button in the notification16:49
danttiapachelogger_: sure, but smart icon is called by dBus..16:50
danttiif you call that app by hand it would work..16:50
apachelogger_I see16:50
apachelogger_dantti: anything we can do?16:50
danttiapachelogger_: I'll talk with richard about what he thinks about calling these scripts with --desktop=kde16:51
apachelogger_ok, thanks16:51
MamarokI volunteered for that list and will not abandon that fast, although it's sometimes hard16:51
danttiapachelogger_: would that be ok for you?16:53
apachelogger_dantti: I am fine with anything as long as there is some sensible way to find out from within the script whether to launch a KDE UI or not :)16:56
danttiapachelogger_: maybe a DESKTOP env var would be better to not break other scripts..16:57
JontheEchidnayay, I fixed my linux17:06
Riddellhttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Specs/LucidDevelopment  mostly done17:19
jussi01Riddell: nice work17:19
shtylman_Riddell: does that mean you will install chromium soon?17:21
shtylman_why do I want to print to a network printer?17:22
Riddellshtylman_: plenty more specs yet17:23
shtylman_Riddell: I thought we needed to fix in 476px not 517:23
shtylman_cause we fit in 576 as it is right now...I thinks17:24
Riddellshtylman_: that was a question, gobby doc says "576 pixels high -- needs to fit in 480"17:24
ScottKshtylman_: That's the only kind of printer I own17:24
RiddellI thought the discussion said we fit in 600 but needed 576 for eeepc17:24
ScottKRiddell: That's correct.  In Karmic we support 576, but we want 48017:24
RiddellScottK: ok I'll fix that17:25
ScottKRiddell: BTW, if I misrepresent any KDE stuff in the session, please correct me.17:25
RiddellScottK: will you do the spec for LucidNetbookPackaging or shall I?17:29
ScottKI'll do it.17:29
SputScottK: just a heads up, current Quassel fails with Qt 4.6-rc1, I'll get a patch out today, I hope17:33
Sputand probably roll a 0.5.1 release too17:34
Sputso if you plan packaging 4.6-rc1, you guys should upload an updated Quassel package as well17:34
ScottKSput: If you put it git head, I need to push to gettext version anyway17:34
SputScottK: it'll be backported17:34
Sputah, karmic isn't gonna get Qt 4.6, I guess?17:35
ScottKNope17:35
Sputok17:35
ScottKIt'll be in a PPA, but PPA users get what they get17:35
ScottKWe can update Quassel in the same PPA if needed.17:35
Sputwell, it'll be in both git head and 0.5.1, so shouldn't be a problem17:35
ScottKCool.17:36
ScottKSput: If you roll 0.5.1 soon, maybe I'll put that in Lucid first and backport it first before I push to a git snapshot.17:36
SputScottK: probably today or tomorrow17:36
ScottKExcellent17:36
shtylman_how come not 4.6 for karmic?17:37
ScottKBackporting Qt 4.4 to Hardy was really, really bad.17:37
ScottKI don't care to repeat the experience.17:37
ScottKCore KDE stuff was ~OK, but all the non-KDE stuff that uses Qt is way to much to test17:38
ScottKRiddell: Is Knetworkmanager in 4.4 using the new systray stuff?17:38
RiddellScottK: knetworkmanager in karmic is17:40
Riddell"in 4.4" isn't meaningful, knm isn't part of KDE mainline17:40
SputScottK: well, between 4.3 and 4.4 there were some significant changes... we didn't experience nearly as much breakage with 4.4 -> 4.5, and 4.5 -> 4.6 was seamless here17:40
Sputbut yeah17:40
Sputprobably a really not-wanted burden of maintenance :)17:41
JontheEchidnaIs there a way to find out what packages depend on a specific version of a library?17:41
Riddellqt 4.6 rc isn't binary compatible with qt 4.6 beta, so a load of stuff in lucid will need to be recompiled17:42
JontheEchidnaKDE stuff built in lucid after Qt 4.6 beta1 and before 4.6 RC1 will need rebuilds for ABI change17:42
RiddellJontheEchidna: lucid-changes mailing list I suspect is the best way17:42
SputRiddell: yeah, anything Qt based... I went through that last night :)17:42
Sput320 packages17:43
Sputon my box :/17:43
ScottKJontheEchidna: You mean like apt-cache rdepends libclamav617:43
JontheEchidnasomething more like: apt-cache rdepends libqt4-core 4:4.6~beta117:43
shtylman_but don't we want the benefits of 4.6?17:44
shtylman_ScottK: you would have to port 4.6 to hardy? why?17:45
ScottKshtylman_: No, I'm saying the last time we tried backporting a major Qt version it went very badly.17:46
ScottKAnd if you look at the backports rules it really doesn't qualify17:46
ScottKI think having it in a PPA for people that want it is OK, but it should not go in the archive at all.17:47
shtylman_ScottK: but what does backporting it have to do with having it in lucid?17:47
shtylman_is there something I am missing in the process?17:47
JontheEchidna[12:37:08] <shtylman_> how come not 4.6 for karmic?17:48
shtylman_oh jesus17:48
* shtylman_ slams head17:48
shtylman_4.6 for lucid I meant...17:48
JontheEchidnaoh, we already have 4.6 in lucid17:48

Tonio_rgreening: we'll get this done in time for lucid21:37
Tonio_rgreening: I have put that on top of my todo list21:37
JontheEchidnaRiddell: oh, I did that patch. I popped in #rekonq a few weeks ago and presented the patch but I never got a response. I should try again21:38
Riddellfale: no, but usplash may go away21:38
RiddellJontheEchidna: what's it for?21:38
faleRiddell: why don't switch directly to plymouth?21:38
Riddellfale: better to just boot fast enough that it's not needed21:38
JontheEchidnaRiddell: the config dialog uses a tree view for no good reason (there are no child modules)21:38
RiddellJontheEchidna: ok we'll keep it for now then but maybe try e-mailing upstream if irc doesn't work, or bug report21:39
Riddellfale: could you redo your rekonq 0.3.0 package with the patch from our version in lucid?21:39
faleRiddell: fedora uses plymouth and boots fast..21:39
faleRiddell: yes, I'll do it later today (GMT+1)21:39
JontheEchidnaI also have a string patch to change the config dialog title from "rekonfig..." to "Configure - rekonq" like most other KDE apps, but I didn't include the patch in our packages since that's a string change21:40
RiddellJontheEchidna: rekonq doesn't come with any translations so string changes aren't an issue currently21:41
JontheEchidnaIf they do in the future it would be a problem, best to play it safe and just get it upstream from the start, etc21:41
faleJontheEchidna: do you think I can propose it upstream?21:42
JontheEchidnaI'll try the mailing list next21:42
RiddellJontheEchidna: right enough21:42
JontheEchidnafale: It would probably be better for me to propose it as the author.21:44
faleJontheEchidna: on this yes, but better someone else that noone ;)21:44
JontheEchidnaI do plan on doing it, I just forgot about trying again :P21:45
faleJontheEchidna: I see21:45
faleJontheEchidna: I'm going to download now the patch and apply it to the package21:45
faleRiddell: I have to compile it streight for lucid, isn't it?21:45
JontheEchidnaI'm going to write up a mail to the rekonq mailing list right now so I don't forget ;-)21:46
Riddellfale: preferably yes, you can set up a chroot21:46
faleJontheEchidna: if you have a gitorious account, is better to do it in gitorious21:46
Riddellfale: also the package in your PPA is done as a native package (since .tar.gz) it should have a .orig.tar.gz and a .diff.gz, you probably named the .orig.tar.gz wrong21:46
faleRiddell: couldn't I just tell soyuz to do it?21:46
Riddellfale: yes you could put lucid in the changelog and upload to a PPA21:47
faleRiddell: I'm using the debuild -S ...maybe I'm using the wrong parameter21:47
Riddellfale: that's fine, it's the tar name which is wrong21:47
Riddellneeds to be rekonq_0.3.0.orig.tar.gz21:47
faleRiddell: ok, renamed :)21:49
faleRiddell: which folder should be in the archive? all out of 'debian'?21:50
Riddellfale: which archive?21:50
bdgraueRiddell: sry to interrupt, i have seen that last plasma-widget-networkmanagement failed to build?21:50
Riddellthe orig.tar.gz should be the sources from upstream21:50
Riddellbdgraue: oh blurg21:50
faleRiddell: the sources from upstream are in a folder... should I remove the folder?21:51
Riddellfale: I'd need to see the layout of all your files to answer that21:52
faleRiddell: the layou of the files should be the same?21:52
Riddellrekonq_0.3.0.orig.tar.gz should extract to rekonq-0.3.0/ which contains the sources21:53
Riddellyou add rekonq-0.3.0/debian/ with the packaging21:53

JontheEchidnaoh, that requires the fancy new dh7 stuff in lucid22:01

faleI see22:01
faleJontheEchidna: is that 'good'?22:02
JontheEchidnaIt really won't have any noticable effects22:02
faleJontheEchidna: I see22:02
JontheEchidnaMainly it just makes the packaging a bit cleaner/more future-proof22:03
ryanakcaRiddell: Sorry, I must've missed that. Looks good :)22:04
faleI think it hasn't used the orig file :(22:04
ScottKRiddell: Based on the updates policy we've got in front of the tech board, KDE 4.4 would stay in a PPA.  This same PPA can have Qt 4.6.22:05
ScottKshtylman__: We should have 4.6 in lucid, so backporting it has nothing to do with that.22:06
JontheEchidnafale: ok, patch mailed to upstream w/ a case for inclusion22:06
faleJontheEchidna: cool ;)22:07
Riddell 22:07
JontheEchidnabah, awaiting moderator approval22:07
faleJontheEchidna: I'm trying to make the upload working correctly22:07
JontheEchidnaI really hope they'll consider the patch. I know that they have ideas about the uniqueness of the project, but taking a little conformancy for professionalism would really help imo22:08
* fale agrees22:08
* JontheEchidna wonders how open they'd be to use "Rekonq" throughout the gui rather than "rekonq"22:08
RiddellI know that finding a decent name is on their todo22:09
faleyep22:10
faleJontheEchidna: in any ways they will work on conformacy before 0.422:10
JontheEchidnacool, maybe this patch will be the start22:10
faleRiddell: File rekonq_0.3.0.orig.tar.gz already exists in Primary Archive for Ubuntu, but uploaded version has different contents.22:11
faleRiddell: Is strange, because I have only downloaded it from upstream22:11
JontheEchidnaoh, you could do a debuild -S -sd and not have to upload the entire tarball then22:12
JontheEchidnasince Ubuntu already has a copy22:12
