[00:03] woohoo, I am actually writing fresh Kubuntu documentation...believe it or not! :) [00:03] Woohoo. [00:04] totally deleted all previous Kubuntu documentation and started a brand new layout from scratch [00:28] amichair: ping [00:30] howdy y'all [00:31] Howdy txwikinger. Make it home OK? [00:31] Howdy ScottK... yes made it home [00:31] and you? [00:31] Yep. Got home about two hours ago. [00:32] Yeah.. I was here 4 hours ago but thought it would be wise to spend some quality time with family [00:35] * txwikinger wonders if he should update the 170+ packages that come up in update manager since the beginning of the week [00:41] http://colin.guthr.ie/2009/11/pulseaudio-phonon-support-now-in-kde-trunk-and-heading-towards-4-4/ <- we may not have to do much of anything for the PA section of https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Specs/LucidPackaging [00:47] Handy [00:49] keep in mind that the longer Kubuntu continues not to ship PA, the more work it ends up being for everyone [00:50] which is ok, I suppose, for Kubuntu but rather hellish for people trying to get one stack [00:54] dtchen: Given that it will be supported upstream now, I think it's probably reasonable to look pretty hard at shipping it in Lucid +1. I don't think there's any chance of getting consensus around making it default for Lucid. [00:55] ScottK: right, I don't expect it to make it into Kubuntu or Xubuntu (or Lubuntu or $whatever) for Lucid [00:56] I just wish people would stop whining about it already and help fix it [00:57] eww, PA [00:57] :p [00:58] * nixternal will continue whining cuz he can :) [00:58] yeah, I'm about to join you. [00:58] haha, you can't join me mr. sound dude [00:58] only 1 whiner per community [00:58] oh yes I can. Watch me. [00:58] 10.04 is going to ROCK for me, because it'll be SEP. [00:59] dude, this generic dr. pepper, tastes just like dr. pepper [00:59] they all do; they're going to kill us all in the end ;-) [00:59] hehe [01:00] dr. pepper was my hurdle in the "stop drinking soda" campaign I launched at the beginning of this year [01:00] I have done really good too, as I pretty much just drink water all of the time, except for coffee in the morning and chocolate milk after a bike ride [01:00] what kind of generic dr pepper isn't soda?! [01:01] i went to the grocery store and they gave me a free can to try [01:01] brb...gotta go to the store and try to pick up some cold weather cycling gear [01:47] hi nixternal [02:01] evening [02:02] Yes, it is (at least here) === ScottK changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: The Doctor thinks that Kubuntu is awesome | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuLucidSpecs | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kubuntu/LucidKDEMerges [02:25] but *which* Doctor?

[11:45] or something ;) [11:46] tsimpson: go write comment on markey's blog post [11:46] tsimpson: go write comment on markey's blog post [11:46] moi needs to haxx up them if conditions [11:48] apachelogger, markey: done :) [11:48] apachelogger, tsimpson: thanks :) [11:49] that pizza really was yummy, btw [11:49] it's making me hungry looking at it [11:51] tsimpson: thanks :) [11:51] * apachelogger hugs tsimpson and hands him an empty qmap to play with [11:52] I blame pythons, makes programmers lazy [11:52] s/programmers/me/ [11:57] yes, ruby > python [11:59] tsimpson: http://gitorious.org/ubuntuone-client-kde/ubuntuone-client-kde/commit/509745c3b38a5f67eb95412c5e362ee6a8e478fc [12:03] apachelogger: you should check that message.signature() == "a{ss}" though right? [12:09] tsimpson: there is a special error state [12:10] hah [12:10] http://imagebin.ca/view/W6ADQ8Yg.html [12:10] them tooltips are fancy :D [12:10] * apachelogger likes that new knotificationitem stuff :D [12:11] aww [12:38] uuah [12:38] it seems I can not edit icon search paths -.- === mgraesslin_ is now known as mgraesslin === yofel_ is now known as yofel [13:26] tsimpson: ping [13:26] apachelogger: pong [13:27] tsimpson: the gnome applet does manually fiddle with its visiblity ... I do think that we do not need to do that stuff for the superior knotificatonitem [13:27] since its main difference from old ksystrayicon is the advanced visibility setting anyway [13:27] do you agree with that? [13:27] anybody know how to get backports approval for digikam? we are shipping beta5 in karmic and it hase some crasher issues [13:28] we really should deliver beta6 to users asap [13:28] * apachelogger thinks that implementing a visibility setting would actually duplicate what the kni states and plasma systray are for [13:28] Lure: file a backport request [13:28] Riddell: ^^^ [13:28] apachelogger: I did, but no progress [13:28] apachelogger: yeah, I've been looking over the doc at http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdeui/html/classKStatusNotifierItem.html [13:28] (it's name changed) [13:28] Lure: poke ScottK or NCommander, they can approve backports [13:30] apachelogger: bug 481851 [13:30] Launchpad bug 481851 in karmic-backports "backport digikam 1.0.0~beta6-1ubuntu1 to karmic" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/481851 [13:30] tsimpson: yeah, the name change is one of the reasons I am moving all the stuff into UbuntuOneStatusNotifierItem, then we just add some magic in there to figure out whether to build against 4.3 or 4.4 [13:30] ScottK, NCommander: could you take care for bug 481851 [13:30] tsimpson: where stuff is anything related to presentation [13:31] and potentially also 481856 [13:31] 481856481856 [13:31] sorry, my baby daughter did the last line ;-) [13:38] amichair: yeah, is bug 486319 one of the ones you fixed in your fixing rampage the other day? [13:38] Launchpad bug 486319 in python-qt4 "software-properties-kde crash" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/486319 [13:48] http://imagebin.ca/view/kF9274h5.html [13:49] JontheEchidna: rampage... used to love that game :-) [13:50] JontheEchidna: I'm not sure why this is under python-qt4, it looks to be in sp itself... I fixed a whole bunch of i18n related stuff, so it's very possibly that this one is included. the stack trace looks familiar, though they all look alike :-P [13:51] yeah, it's just a misfiled bug [13:51] But I think the essence of it is mishandled utf characters in the gpg key handling dialog [13:52] JontheEchidna: yes, I'm checking... btw that bug was in gpg itself, I added a comment in the bug, just a sec... [13:53] JontheEchidna: Bug #133937 [13:53] Launchpad bug 133937 in software-properties "software-properties-kde crashed with error " 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 27-28"" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/133937 [13:56] JontheEchidna: I think I am a lord of dbus now! [13:56] \o/ [13:56] JontheEchidna: looks like the same bug in a different release, u can move to sp and mark as dup [13:57] JontheEchidna: and if u feel like it, get the fixed gpg version into lucid to close the bug [13:57] oh, did you get your changes merged? [13:58] JontheEchidna: nope. bugged a bunch of ppl for a while, and gave up. stopped working on it for now, until someone will find the time (going too far from trunk leads to extra work down the line...) [13:59] did you bug mvo about it? [13:59] him I didn't bug, only nicely asked and gave the link :-) [13:59] :P [13:59] I think Riddell could probably merge the changes, after he recuperates from UDS [14:00] since he haz core-dev powas [14:00] and haven't caught him online for a few days... yeah I figured UDS and exams (for whom it may apply) had ppl pretty busy [14:01] anyway, when they'll get around to it, they'll know where to find me [14:01] (and I hope I remember something from what I did there :-) ) [14:02] if anyone else needs the help of an experienced dev, let me know :-) [14:02] JontheEchidna: Please link me your kubuntu-dev application again. [14:10] JontheEchidna: pushed nu changes [14:10] * apachelogger notes that now it even starts without too much hassle, if ubuntuone-auth is installed [14:11] still need to try a couple of times since it does not wait until the dbus stuff is up and running [14:11] oh and I think one needs to manually make the syncdaemon connect :D [14:12] * tsimpson did, and uploaded a file successfully (but not status notifications) [14:13] KNotificationItem seems not to like me [14:14] hm [14:14] tsimpson: any usefulness on the console? [14:14] if all kdebug is turned on [14:14] ehm [14:14] activated [14:14] turned on sounds way too weird [14:15] tsimpson: besides, the notification is done by KNotification [14:15] oh, misread [14:15] * apachelogger needs coffee and light [14:16] I'm thinking it may be auto-closing or something [14:16] notifications work with the gnome client, just not with yours [14:16] oh [14:16] tsimpson: you need to restart knotify [14:17] kquitapp knotify; sleep 2; knotify4& [14:17] for some reason the notification doesnt go through unless knotify has the id listed [14:17] tsimpson: that of course implies that you have run make install once [14:20] apachelogger: how do I update a cloned repo? [14:20] * JontheEchidna is git noob [14:20] apachelogger: still not working here [14:21] wait, it installed to /usr/local, that may be it [14:23] there we go [14:24] JontheEchidna: git merge would be an option [14:24] git merge git://gitorious.org/ubuntuone-client-kde/ubuntuone-client-kde.git ? [14:24] apachelogger: have you seen the type of message ConnectQueueChanged sends? [14:25] ClientApplet(9162) Applet::contentQueueChanged: QDBusMessage(type=Signal, service=":1.618", path="/status", interface="com.ubuntuone.SyncDaemon.Status", member="ContentQueueChanged", signature="a{sa{ss}}", contents=([Argument: a{sa{ss}} {"head" = [Argument: a{ss} {"path" = "/home/stdin/Ubuntu One/file.txt", "command" = "Upload", "size" = "0"}], "Upload" = [Argument: a{ss} {"count" = "1", "size" = "0"}]}]) ) [14:25] tsimpson: not implemented [14:26] it listens on all signals of syncdaemon but only triggers action if something comes in via uploadstarted [14:26] JontheEchidna: I suppose so [14:26] that is an upload [14:26] didn't work :( [14:26] JontheEchidna: you could probably also set that as git remote [14:26] JontheEchidna: just configure it as origin and merge with origin then :P [14:27] tsimpson: yes, but contentqueuechanged gets emitted each time the queue changes [14:27] whereas uploadstarted only gets emitted when the daemon starts uploading [14:27] anyhow [14:27] you need to look at debug output regarding uploadstarted [14:28] there is none :p /me adds some [14:32] * apachelogger is wondering if we can implement the transfers like dolphin does [14:32] makes more sense to have a progressbar I suppose [14:40] apachelogger: I can't see any progress indication from ubuntuone, just uploadstarted and uploadfinished [14:41] and I've connected all the signals I can see from com.ubuntuone.SyncDaemon /* [14:42] tsimpson: queuechanged is emitted each time the progress changes, isnt it?

I tried kubuntu with several desktop environments (KDE, Xfce) and I have serious problems with application starting or with any GUI-based program (slow response time to time, sometimes even locking of GUI for several seconds). Is that observed behavior or is it only me? [15:00] The thing is that it happens even when system is quite unloaded [15:08] apachelogger: how about RecordItNow? It's written in awesome c++ :P [15:08] Quintasan: if recordmydesktop was a library with stable API, then all hail the recorditnow [15:09] but since it is not I forsee compability problems [15:09] of course I am no oracle, so I might be wrong [15:09] first contact seems okay [15:09] let me do some more testing [15:18] apachelogger: hmm, everything works until I enable Not RECOMMENDED!!!! options :P [15:22] * apachelogger is wondering why the stupid left menu appears in the top-left corner -.- === nixternal_ is now known as nixternal [15:53] mm, jetlag [15:55] dtchen: BBC 7 still makes new 8th doctor shows, they're not bad [15:57] Riddell: Did you manage to corner agy?

Is there a way to change that for future releases? [17:42] we can only fix stuff before the string freeze...after a string freeze we concentrate on the next development cycle [17:43] since we are starting fresh and deleted all of the old documentation, none of the current bugs exist in Lucid [17:44] ahhhh [17:44] we can't go back and fix karmic docs..only thing I can do with karmic docs is grab the translated files from LP and merge them in, then create an updated package, file a SRU, and rock on :) [17:44] How do you set a milestone with launchpad? [17:44] even if we were to fix the bugs in karmic docs it wouldn't matter, since those docs are from KDE 3.5 days :/ [17:45] you need to be a developer in order to set milestones and such [17:46] that's what I figured.

[18:10] yes it would [18:10] "So, David, at The End of Time, do you like Kubuntu?" "Why, yes, I love it." [18:10] can we send him a cd? [18:10] maco: DVD [18:11] sorry, no hats while indoors [18:11] of course, the 9th doctor usually said "fantastic" out of sarcasm :x [18:11] the 9th is still my favorite [18:11] mmm i like 10th [18:11] he's cute [18:12] not so into 9th's hair [18:12] you and just about everyone else. === JontheEchidna changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: Kubuntu has the Doctor on the brain | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuLucidSpecs | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kubuntu/LucidKDEMerges [18:12] maco: did you get the DVD working? or is it evil still??

[18:13] maco: black magic [18:14] it took mplayer and a lot of decss caching [18:14] huh? [18:14] ....why does mplayer spit things at me when i try to launch it. i KNOW it has a gui [18:14] ls ~/.dvdcss/ [18:15] mplayer-nogui installed? :-) [18:16] i installed normal mplayer package [18:16] does that pull in -nogui and make it default for some silly reason? [18:18] 'gmplayer'? [18:18] i see [18:18] silly [18:19] it tells me "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device." [18:20] # vo=xv,x11 is the defautl [18:21] so i have to say gmplayer vo=xv,x11 to make it work? [18:21] no, that's the default [18:21] (/etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf) [18:21] you can override it in ~/.mplayer/config [18:21] not sure if xv is broken for your hw [18:22] (it shouldn't be?) Anyhow, -vo=x11 may work [18:28] dtchen: this is with plain "gmplayer" http://paste.ubuntu.com/325527/ [18:29] you might want to use dvdnav instead of dvd [18:29] I really have no clue WRT gmplayer; I use mplayer. [18:29] what? dvdnav? i have that lib installed... [18:30] nono, mplayer dvdnav://1 [18:30] and really, if you think man pages are frightening, just look at mplayer(1) [18:30] have 7500 lines! [18:30] dtchen: http://paste.ubuntu.com/325528/ [18:30] oh [18:31] heyyyyyyyy that seems to work! [18:31] umm i see the dvd menu [18:31] now what? [18:31] (seriously?) [18:31] !yay | maco [18:31] maco: Glad you made it! :-) [18:32] dtchen: i tried clicking on "play all" but it just said [18:32] No bind found for key 'MOUSE_BTN0'.-MOUSE_BTN0_DBL [18:32] No bind found for key 'MOUSE_BTN0_DBL'. 0 [18:32] and didnt actually play [18:32] oh, cursor position is a PITA [18:32] and I never have much luck with dvdnav; I end up having to restart mplayer constantly [18:33] enter key! [18:33] ok now it looks like totem [18:33] all garbled [18:34] silly Lunix! [18:34] i mean, sound works right unlike totem, but the image looks like im not wearing my glasses [18:34] you probably ain't wearing yo' glasses! [18:34] i am! [18:34] I'm really quite surprised that kaffeine doesn't work [18:35] kaffeine (for me) was far more reliable than GSt or mplayer [18:35] or rather, it looks like im not wearing my glasses and have gone color blind, possibly tripping on acid [18:35] because theres a lot of odd colours showing up [18:35] oh, that's probably x11 [18:35] dtchen: because of xine? [18:36] Tm_T: yes, not until *very* recently was dvd + GSt even approachably usable [18:36] actually a little less recently (back around karmic alpha2) it was much more usable than it is now :P [18:37] boo! [18:38] kaffeine detaches from the terminal so i dont think ill get to see any error output spew from it [18:38] nevermind. it still spew [18:39] if(p->url(p->closestItem(url)) != url) [18:39] that looks a bit like C :D [18:40] ok here's what kaffeine outputs after it gets past the "welcome to the bbc" stuff, where it *should* show the dvd menu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/325532/ [18:42] so uh right now...gstreamer is doing hella better than xine [18:42] Riddell: FYI, you are still Riddelll on #debian-qt-kde [18:42] at least gstreamer has working audio and funny images. xine has neither [18:42] maco: I think you can change the videosink for GSt [18:59] JontheEchidna, tsimpson: now startup should actually be working [18:59] well, unless the python auth stuff segfaults, which happens at times [19:01] dtchen: mplayer -vo help ....isnt telling me a whole lot. i tried sdl. that was bad too [19:29] Are there any Kubuntu specific podcasts we could link to from the website? [19:37] don't think so [19:37] I did an interview once but that was years [19:37] I did an interview once but that was years ago [19:39] ofir__: ^^ [19:39] what about starting a monthly or weekly Kubuntu podcast? [19:40] please do [19:41] * ryanakca thinks dtchen just volunteered himself to run it [19:41] e.g., split development/interesting user stuff [19:41] He is the multimedia guy after all :) [19:41] ryanakca: ...except I don't use Kubuntu! [19:41] cough. [19:41] /kick dtchen [19:42] dtchen: *cough* sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop *cough* [19:42] ;p [19:42] to be honest, my DE is a mutt of window managers and hellish components [19:42] Problem solved [19:42] ryanakca: oh I have that. [19:42] there are a couple of podcasts done where kubuntu was dicussed...i know i have done a couple this year...but a kubuntu specific podcast I haven't heard of [19:43] nixternal: I think it would be a good draw. Not even Ubuntu development has such a podcast. [19:43] maybe we can talk to the Ubuntu UK folks and see if they could add a "Kubuntu" section to their podcasts where they could give details/news/whatever [19:43] nixternal: Were you still interested in working on that feature tour you volunteered to do before release? [19:43] I wonder if seele could be roped into some short-fuse usability-type. [19:43] I think imbrandon and I were the only ones to ever do it, back in like 2005 [19:44] * ryanakca hasn't seen imbrandon in ages [19:44] ryanakca: ya, but I would like to see a new site or something...i can at least provide the text and let you or whoever do the markup [19:45] when the fridge had nobody working on it, imbrandon and I started a website and podcast for Ubuntu....eventually sabdfl asked him and I to take over the fridge and do the same thing...but people who were in charge of the fridge prevented us from doing so [19:47] nixternal: Allow me to introduce you to ofir__ , he's interested in doing the theming / layout [19:47] ofir__: Allow me to introduce you to nixternal :) [19:48] hehe, is that the one layout you that was linked to recently, I believe by you during UDS? [19:48] nixternal: Yes [19:48] groovy [19:48] hello [19:49] nixternal: you some stuff ready? [19:49] *have some [19:50] nothing :) I need to do it as I have said I would do it for about 6 months now :) [19:50] ooh it's ofir__ [19:50] * ryanakca grins [19:50] hello Riddell [19:50] ryanakca: do you have a link to what the new kubuntu website will look like? [19:50] nixternal: you have some ideas for the feature tour? [19:51] ofir__: Does the screenshot you sent me a few weeks ago still match what you currently have? [19:51] Yeah [19:52] shtylman: ofir__ is working on the new theme. [19:52] cool [19:52] text wise just cover the major features. web browsing, emailing, chatting, social crap, office stuff, multimedia....this would be like a basic tour or the default tour with linkage to more advanced stuff that is available possibly [19:52] shtylman: http://ryanak.ca/~ryan/ofir-website.png [19:53] O.O [19:53] wow [19:53] I like it... no no... I LOVE it :) [19:53] except that wallpaper ... too windows XP like :) [19:53] thanks shtylman [19:53] ofir__: nice work [19:53] yes, it will be replaced be a native one :) [19:54] good [19:54] Riddell: Do we still need the Copyright (C) 2009 at the bottom of the website? Since none of us are Canonical employees and none of us have assigned copyright to Canonical (unless you have), I don't know how that works out. The trademark blurb can stay though [19:54] hehe shtylman many said the same thing...but that is the wallpaper used in screenshots on KDE's website [19:54] nixternal: hmmm... [19:54] which you would think they would use the default wallpaper and themes in their screenshots [19:54] yea...weird [19:55] that download icon needs some work... its not as "crisp" as the other ones [19:55] The "Copyright (C) 2005-2009 Canonical Ltd." blurb [19:55] yes, maybe I will drop some shadow... [19:56] ryanakca: the kubuntu logo is a trademark? [19:57] * apachelogger falls off chair [19:57] kjob is overly complex -.- [19:57] enough ubuntuone for today [19:57] ofir__: Both the logo and the name are trademarks [19:58] So some copyright notice should be placed. [19:58] Just to know people about the fact that they are trademarked [19:58] ofir__: Wouldn't it just be "Kubuntu and Canonical are registered trademarks of Canonical Ltd." ? [19:59] ryanakca: Yes, just like in ubuntu.com [20:00] ofir__: the idea came up to make the screenshot an animated gif slideshow (a la ubuntu homepage), so users can get a better feel for various work scenarios [20:01] amichair: it will be, but I need good screenshot [20:01] amichair: I hope that nixternal will provide them. Hmm... [20:01] :) [20:01] :-) [20:01] anyone have issues with amarok playing just one song in the playlist and then stopping? [20:03] Nightrose: ^ :D [20:03] don't make an animated .gif...you can do the slideshow with a few lines of jquery and some images :) [20:03] *grumble* [20:03] imbezol: change phonon backend [20:03] ew javascript [20:03] though I guess the people with tinfoil hats are anti-javascript [20:03] like maco :p [20:03] yes! [20:03] animated gif is so 1992... what was I thinking? ;-) [20:03] Nightrose: how does one do that? [20:04] nixternal: i stopped doing webdesign because javascript and flash are too popular [20:04] amarok settings [20:04] nixternal: websites should work in lynx, goshdarnit! [20:04] there is playback or something like that somehwere [20:04] oh oh [20:04] for april fools, can we make lynx the default web browser in lucid lynx? [20:04] nightrose: configure amarok -> playback -> sound system configuration -> backend, then i have xine in the list, that's it. [20:05] maco: w3m > lynx [20:05] nixternal: irrelevant [20:05] BUT its called Lucid Lynx [20:05] who goes to www.kubuntu.org from a server? [20:05] nixternal: I do [20:05] maybe for the Wild W3m release w3m can be the default browser [20:06] me too [20:06] I will too, if it helps :-) [20:06] you can add code to say "if lynx|w3m|other then spit out a damn foo.txt file" [20:07] imbezol: install phonon gstreamer backend [20:07] we're only mising an ascii-art screenshot, and we're good to go [20:07] browsing with lynx, w3m, or whatever else cli browsers there are, is no longer in stayle...replace the green and black setup in the terminal already [20:08] amichair: haha, I have an ascii-art screenshot somewhere [20:08] amichair: that's it, ascii-lookalike plasma theme [20:08] nixternal: then.... we're good to go! :-P [20:08] I was playing with gimp plugins and did that, a long time ago [20:08] though it was probably with kde 3.5 :) [20:08] * Tm_T is confused with cmake [20:09] maco: Haha, sounds like a good plan :) [20:10] yikes, it has been a long time since I used w3m or lynx...and it is all still ugly [20:11] * ryanakca used w3m regularly a year ago [20:11] vlc has an ascii art output module iirc - we can grab a video with compositing and all and let the fun begin [20:12] heh, I watched an F1 race with vlc and that plugin when we were doing distributed storage work at the company I used to work for [20:13] wait wait whose screenshot is that? [20:13] "installing softwares"? [20:13] since when is software plural? [20:13] *especially* plural with an s? its warez! [20:21] maybe we can show latest news (like in old site) instead of tip of the day? [20:22] hi peoples any news for the crashing printer applet so far [20:27] nixternal: are you here? [20:31] is there a mechanisms that syncs or notifies new releases in debian, or is everything done manually? [20:32] releases of packages, that is [20:34] Packages that are unmodified in Ubuntu are automatically synced until DebianImportFreeze each cycle [20:35] new packages are semi-automatic, but I think an archive admin does have to look at those manually (they will be synced though) [20:35] so why is youtube-dl so old? [20:35] I like keeping track of things here: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/multidistrotools [20:38] dunno why that one is so old [20:38] amichair: is it old in debian too? [20:39] It's been updated in sid since at least jaunty times [20:39] by all reckoning it should have been picked up in the autosync then [20:39] and in karmic/lucid it's still 2008.03 version [20:40] oh, wait [20:40] It was really old until it was updated after our DebianImportFreeze [20:40] ooh, lp just died [20:40] jtechidna: you shrunk [20:40] and since it's not in Debian testing yet it's not autosyncing. (Since 10.04 is based of of Debian testing since its an lts) [20:41] heh, yeah. I'm away from my home compy at the moment, using an alt. nick [20:42] jtechidna: will it get there in time? what's the procedure? [20:42] it's broken in karmic, with youtube changing slightly in 20 months time :-/ [20:43] requestsync youtube-dl lucid <- assuming you ahve ubuntu-dev-tools installed [20:43] from karmic-backports [20:43] what does that do? [20:44] oh, it's a nice little wizard for filing sync requests [20:44] there's already a bug open on this for quite a while... does it do somthing other than that? [20:44] oh, there's a sync request already open for it? [20:45] well there's a bug, not sure what makes it a sync request technically. if lp wasn't dead, I'd check it [20:46] Ok, it's not a formal sync request so the archive admin group wasn't subscribed to the bug so they never saw it [20:47] there a something sync subscriber there, not sure where it leads [20:47] so the current version is broken? [20:48] at least parts of it, dunno. I can't download anything, and could before, and the author in the bug reports says it's all fixed in newer versions (which are old themselves) [20:48] a youtube site change [20:50] meh, X crash [20:50] no google tech talks for me today :-( [20:51] Ok, so the command would be: requestsync -d sid youtube-dl lucid [20:51] if it gives you some crap about firewalls and ports just throw on the --lp flag [20:52] jtechidna: so basically it opens an lp bug with autosync subscribed? [20:52] If you're an MOTU it opens up a lp bug with the archive admins subscribed [20:53] and if not? [20:53] if you're not it will subscribe universe-sponsors so that an MOTU can ack your request, then they will subscribe the archive admins [20:53] who will then manually sync the package from debian. [20:54] ok then, I'll give it a shot [20:54] autosyncing doesn't apply here since 10.04 is being based off of Debian squeeze (testing) instead of Debian unstable (sid) [20:54] and youtube-dl isn't in squeeze yet [20:54] probably not stable enough or whatever [20:55] jtechidna: what about the newer gnupg which fixed the sp crashes? [20:56] and any chance of backporting youtube-dl to karmic? [20:56] which version of gnupg is that? [20:56] ummmm.... [20:56] the one linked from the bug report :-) [20:57] gotta go, bbl [20:58] cya :-) [20:58] looks like somebody will have to merge gnupg since it's modified in Ubuntu [20:58] anyways, later. [22:25] nixternal: ping [22:34] ScottK & apachelogger: Sorry I've been MIA. [22:34] Dealing with stuff offline. [22:51] DarkwingDuck: pong? [22:52] Sweet you are here. [22:52] Actually, my questions are in the email I just dropped... [22:54] However, I was going to ask the process of docs for Lucid. When they drop an alpha do we start looking into what is going to be there and update the docs accordingly? [22:54] adding new ones when needed correct? [22:58] you got it :) [22:59] we tend to know most of the stuff up front, we typically just hold off on images towards the end [23:00] Okay sweet. So, now the question is when is kubuntu-docs updated so I can start fixing some of these bugs. :P [23:01] see? I [23:01] m finally figuring this all out [23:02] XML, thats the easy part [23:07] as soon as kubuntu is released, we start the next development cycle and branch the old docs to their respective version, and then we can continue working with the trunk branch then [23:09] http://www.nixternal.com/kubuntu/about/C/index.html [23:09] w00t! I got the build system spitting out the HTML to host online :) [23:09] nixternal: Cool [23:10] nixternal: Why does all the Ubuntu documentation seem to have a /C/ somewhere in its path? [23:10] ryanakca: the way I have it now though, it wouldn't use the Kubuntu website theme [23:10] Why not choose something kool, like /K/ ? [23:10] ryanakca: C == english :) [23:10] Ah [23:10] LANG = C [23:10] * ryanakca nods [23:11] which also means we will have translated docs in the future :) [23:11] * DarkwingDuck crosses his fingers on that one [23:11] ie: es/index.html for espanol :) [23:11] so we can create a custom index on the website with a language drop down, and it will take them to the docs for their language :) [23:12] nixternal: You've got five months to get it done :) [23:12] lol [23:12] muhahaha [23:13] nixternal: is this using the new backend structure? [23:13] yup [23:13] * DarkwingDuck smiles [23:13] That's all the docs we currently have? [23:13] haha, yup, just an about page is completed :) [23:14] the rest are blanks [23:14] http://www.nixternal.com/kubuntu/ [23:14] w...o...w... [23:14] yeah, there is a couple months of work yet for the docs to be remotely ready for translating...hopefully sooner [23:15] Okay sweet. So, when we get it updated to the Lucid side of things we can really start. Light the fires and kick the tires [23:15] I can typically commit to a doc or 2 a week, as I can write up a doc in just a few hours time [23:15] we need to light the fires and kick the tires right now :) [23:15] I've started. [23:15] lp:kubuntu-docs is Lucid docs [23:16] but, didn't you say hold off till the new structure was uploaded there? [23:16] it is uploaded :) [23:16] I guess it doesn't... oh sweet/ [23:16] did that yesterday [23:16] Then again. I'm still gonna flood you and Jjeese with XML files till I can commit them myself. [23:17] my web server doesn't have bzr installed :/ [23:17] eek [23:18] * DarkwingDuck smashed his head into his desk [23:19] why is bzr being a pain? [23:20] bzr is always a pain :) [23:24] Permission denied (publickey). [23:24] bzr: ERROR: Connection closed: Unexpected end of message. Please check connectivity and permissions, and report a bug if problems persist. [23:24] Any ideas? [23:26] you need to do this: [23:26] bzr launchpad-login your_launchpad_id [23:27] ie. the part after launchpad.net/~ [23:27] do you have an ssh key on LP? [23:27] Yes I do. [23:27] I forgot to log in *snickers* [23:27] muhahah [23:28] Well, hmmm.... [23:28] still getting it? [23:28] yeah [23:28] make sure your ssh key is the right one you have in LP [23:29] StCanard [23:29] I've only made one. [23:30] are you trying to do a 'pull' or 'branch'? [23:33] branch [23:33] interesting [23:33] arkwingduck@StCanard:~/projects/Kubuntu/Lucid$ bzr launchpad-login darkwingduck [23:33] darkwingduck@StCanard:~/projects/Kubuntu/Lucid$ bzr branch lp:kubuntu-docs [23:33] Permission denied (publickey).

[23:33] darkwingduck@StCanard:~/projects/Kubuntu/Lucid$ [23:34] * DarkwingDuck mutters [23:34] you were able to branch before right? [23:34] yeah [23:34] wonder if there is a hiccup with LP [23:34] though I just did a push without any problems [23:35] hmm... [23:35] and I just removed and reinstalled bzr... [23:36] * DarkwingDuck continues to bash his head into his desk [23:45] Are you tired of kubuntu bugs and shits and much more cause dont have place to troll kubuntu distribution??? [23:46] Now you have your channel in #kubuntu-sux. Powered by bugs, beatles, ants and much more [23:48] Are you tired of kubuntu bugs and shits and much more cause dont have place to troll kubuntu distribution??? [23:48] Now you have your channel in #kubuntu-sux. Powered by bugs, beatles, ants and much more [23:49] * DarkwingDuck raises an eyebrow [23:53] * Nightrose raises another one and goes to bed [23:53] nini ;-) [23:57] hmmm, something is up with the system... [23:57] KpackageKit is hanging up at 5% or 10% on every download
