ccheneyasac: looking00:48
ccheneyasac: things like PROP_* are defined in many different c files with differing values in enums afaict00:48
ccheneyasac: after separating most of the c files to try to work around issues like that i have hit another snag00:48
ccheneyi'm now somehow getting multiple redefinition of GCancellable00:49
ccheneyif i add it in i get that, if i don't i get error it can't be found00:49
ccheneytrying to track down where i am missing a header that is needed00:49
ccheneyasac: just uploaded my current debdiff00:50
ccheneyi may just need to get rid of the rest of the monolithic glibc-copy.* files to make it work right00:51
ccheneyhmm yea that seems to have helped00:55
ccheneyactually it didn't work after all, just threw an extra error making me think it was fixed00:57
ccheneyasac: put another version up just now00:59
ccheneyasac: not sure how to make this work properly :-\01:00
ccheneyhmm maybe i should have each header in my patch include gio.h01:20
* ccheney isn't sure whether that is a good idea though01:21

micahgasac: do I need to download the locales?15:08
* micahg pulls source15:08

fta2asac, i don't understand why the diff is so big16:33

fta2let me see, i hope i still have that tarball16:46
fta2asac, why do you need to document that in d/changelog? it's the initial upload16:47
asacfta2: because its a change archive admins refused ... in that way its showing that we addressed that on top16:47
asacyou can recreate tarball ... i think reject doesnt leave any hashsum around etc.16:47
fta2i still have it16:48
asacgood16:48

asacfta2: crap17:03
fta2?17:03
asaci forgot to manually append the license ;)17:03
asacwant to do that and upload the same version?17:03
ccheneyasac: do you think i should try including gio.h in all my glib files to work around the duplicate symbol issue?17:04
asacits just catting it with one whitspace line17:04
fta2asac, sure. could you ask Jonathan to kill it?17:04
asacfta2: already did17:04
asacaready was rejected17:04
fta2*sigh*17:04
asacwell. i asked for rejecting it ;)17:05
asacccheney: i would need to see the exact issue and the current state of the patch17:05
asaci started a git tree locally ... with the patch you gave me yesterday i didnt see the issue you are referring to17:06
ccheneyasac: current version is up on chinstrap17:06
asacccheney: can you plesae put that to a public place?17:06
asacwgettable17:06
ArneGoetjeasac, ccheney: I need some time with you two to discuss how to proceed with FF-3.6 translations in Launchpad.17:06
ArneGoetjeasac, ccheney: since 3.6 has been uploaded to lucid already, which translation template does it use?17:08
ccheneyasac: http://people.canonical.com/~ccheney/libsoup2.4-hardy-backport.diff17:09
fta2asac, all done17:09
asacthx17:09
asacfta2:17:09
asacthx17:09
ccheneyasac: i get conflicts with things like GCancellable which are in both the /usr/include/glib area and in other parts of the original source i am trying to copy over17:10
asacccheney: why do i always need to filter out all this generated stuff?17:10
asaci did that like 5 times now :(17:10
asacanyway17:10
ccheneyasac: i was just generating debdiff from original hardy version, maybe i should do something different?17:11
asac18:11 < ccheney> asac: i was just generating debdiff from original hardy version, maybe i should do something different?17:12
ccheneyyes that was the last thing i said17:12
asacyes. a git tree ;)17:12
ccheneyah :)17:12
asacor bzr ;)17:13
asaclet me check if we have a bzr import of that tag17:13
asacccheney: do you still have the patch from yesterday?=17:25
asacnot sure why you needed to split all this up17:25
ccheneynot anymore17:26
ccheneyi had problem with some of the variables needing to be copied from various source files that had colliding symbol names (in the c files), then once i broke it up into separate sources the issue with needing to copy parts that collided with the /usr/include/glib stuff happened17:27
ccheneyi think possibly creating a gio.h include in the proper files might help but i haven't tried that yet17:27
asaci didnt see those issues with the patch you had yesterday17:27
ccheneyeg the PROP_FAMILY one you mentioned17:27
ccheneyit was part of a enum that collided with some of its values with another enum from another c file17:28
asacthats none-sense17:28
asacthe PROP_FAMLIY was just needed to be copied in the .c file17:28
asaclets hope i can still find it17:29
ccheneyjust stick it in one giant enum then?17:29
asacno17:30
asacuse a different prefix if it collieds17:30
ccheneybecause there were separate enum types in each c file with colliding names for their values17:30
asacafaik it was just required in the .c files17:30
asacyes17:30
asacyou can prefix that17:30
asace.g.17:30
asacGSOCKETADDRESS_PROP_FAMILY17:30
asacetc.17:30
asacand replace that in the snippets17:30
ccheneyok17:30
asacif it really happens17:30
ccheneyyea it was really happening17:31
asacyour patch yesterday was pretty close17:31
asacnow everything is busted ;)17:31
ccheneyits still pretty much there, i just would need to merge the files back together again i guess17:31
ccheneythen prefix all the enums17:31
ccheneyprobably prefix them first actually so i don't end up messing up some of them, heh17:32
asacwhatever oyu do ... keep a local history17:32
ccheneyok17:32
ccheneyi think the reason it was working before was that i had a include gio.h at the top of the header that i removed17:33
ccheneythat might be enough to make it work again, i saw it there and thought i had put it there by accident, probably did it when i first started working on the files17:33
asacso first thing i had to do in your pach was to include gobj-copy.h17:33
asacyou didnt do that17:33
ccheneythen without it i get issues of duplicate symbols17:33
asaci didnt add gio.h17:33
ccheneyhmm ok, i will look at it again and see where i left off17:34
fta2asac, http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3316317:40
jdstrandok-- as it turns out, apparmor_parser -r didn't honor the /etc/apparmor.d/disable dir on Jaunty and earlier (disable/ was handling be the initscript)17:42
jdstrandso I updated the preinst to unconditionally disable the profile in 9.04 and earlier (it needs abstractions only found in 9.10 anyway) and to check if the profile is disabled17:43
jdstrandin postinst17:43
jdstrandthat should the dailies on jaunty and earlier17:43
jdstrands/should/should fix/17:44
asacjdstrand: thanks.17:44
asacjdstrand: once thats confirmed i will push an update to the stable ppa and lucid (if you are saying its ready there)17:44
jdstrandchanges are committed to 3.6 and 3.7-- I tested 3.6 on jaunty17:44
jdstrandthe jaunty stuff that White_Sloan was seeing was actually not hurting anything-- the profile didn't load and postinst has || true, it was just disconcerting17:45
asacok ok17:46
asacin case he shows up i will get him confirm that it didnt cause any havoc17:46
asacanyway break17:47

mbanadoes the new FF default to the new JS engine17:48
micahgasac: testing tb locales in pbuilder17:49
asacmicahg: great17:51
micahgasac: if it builds where should I push?17:51
asacmicahg: to your ppa?17:51
micahgsure17:51
micahgas ppa version (~karmic~ppa1)?17:52
asactry to install a langpack17:52
asacand check that it works maybe17:52
micahgk17:52
asacsure17:52
asacyou can also append ~ppa to the upstream version17:52
micahgI'm test building in lucid17:52
asacso in case the tarball isnt good we can still bump it17:52
micahgasac: I removed the langs that didn'17:53
micahgt have packs17:53
micahgs/removed/commented out/17:53
asaci think thats the wrong approach17:53
asacthere is amechanism to null them17:53
asacin the package17:53
micahgah, ok17:53
micahgI'll check17:53
asaci think its basdically shipping empty packages with a different description17:53
asactry to figure that17:53
asacthats just out of my head17:53
asacbut i think in the control of the previous upload17:54
micahgasac: I'll have to check that tonight then17:54
asacthere should be precedence of previously existing, but now gone langpacks17:54
mbanai guess u guys know18:01
micahgasac: I found I missed a step in the packaging, I'll fix it tonight18:02
mbanahi, is tracemonkey enabled by default on the ppa package18:18
micahgmbana: I think whatever the default upstream for 3.6 is18:23
asacright. all upstream.18:30
mbanado you know offhand?  i dont want to have to start FF, last time i had 30+ tabs open18:31
asac... there exists no answer to your question because you do not define what new engine means18:33
asacits new in that its a new release ;)18:33
micahgmbana: you can ask in #firefox on irc.mozilla.org18:38
gavintracemonkey is on by default in firefox 3.518:38
micahggavin: I thought that was windows only?18:39
gavinno18:39
micahgk18:39
micahgmbana: ^^18:39
gavinthe tracemonkey in 3.6 is better though :)18:39
gavin(also in 3.6 it's enabled for chrome code)18:39
micahggavin: was it jit that was disabled on linux in 3.5?18:39
gavinno, it wasn't disabled18:40
micahghmm18:40
asacamd64 was disabled18:40
micahgk18:40
asacnot sure if its enabled now18:40
micahgmaybe that was it18:40
gavinoh, there just isn't code for 64 bit18:40
asacright. so nothing changed for that18:40
gavinso not really "disabled" as much as "nonexistent" :)18:40
micahggavin: it does an arch test?18:40
asacsure. compile time18:41
micahgk18:41
mbanaright.  ok18:42
mbanathat probably explains it18:42
mbanai wasn't experiencing much of a speedup when i tried it18:43
mbanado u guys have a32bit ppa for 64bit machine18:43

* micahg might upgrade when ff37 hits beta19:07
* micahg still has to submit a couple patches upstream to mozilla :)19:08
sebnerpray they'll accept :P19:09
ftajcastro, i will update it but i'm not sure which "channel" would be best to follow. stable will most probably become too old to fast for most19:11
ftajcastro, and the codecs are still missing, we need to decide what to do with those19:12
jcastrofta: I was thinking -stable in releases and -dev for dev releases19:12
jcastrofta: can't go into multiverse?19:13
ftano idea, i'm not a lawyer19:13
jcastroheh19:13
ftai mean, if h264 becomes nonfree to use in 2011, well.. *sigh* i don't know19:17
ftajcastro, ^^, also, to send the next update, we need at least one channel to jump over the version we just uploaded, could take some time :P19:41
jcastrohah19:41
ftaso my guess is that a lot of people still using the daily ppa will keep using it19:44

asacthere is not much information21:14
sebnerwell, I'm sure it was not made public for a while21:15
asacgoogle seems to not like their users enough to keep them by default ;)21:15
sebnerIt's a little bit crazy though. Google pays mozilla for being default and yahoo pays canonical for changing it21:15
asacheh. one point of looking at it21:16
sebnerasac: I'd be happy if my changed search engines won't change on ff updates ;)21:19

rickspencer3hi guys21:22
* sebner is too lazy to delete the same search engines over and over again21:22
sebnerheya rickspencer3 :)21:22
rickspencer3well, according to the internet, I have sold ubuntu to Yahoo!21:22
rickspencer3sorry about that21:22
rickspencer3it was an accident21:22
rickspencer3:/21:22
sebnerwth?21:23
* sebner is not sure if he should start laughing xD21:24
sebnerrickspencer3: I have the feeling if you told Google about the deal they would have paid more but it's quite stupid to pay money twice21:25
rickspencer3sebner, I can't really discuss our discussions with mozilla and/or google21:26
rickspencer3but suffice to say, our first choice was to stick with Google21:26
* micahg is afraid to ask the question I'm thinking, rickspencer3: PM?21:26
rickspencer3micahg, you can ask21:26
rickspencer3it's just there is some things that business partners ask me to not discuss21:26
rickspencer3I'll just tell you if I can't say because of that21:26
micahgrickspencer3: you sure?21:27
* sebner is interested too21:27
rickspencer3go ahead and ask21:27
rickspencer3what can it hurt?21:27
micahgdoes this affect the branding since we're changing an app default?21:27
rickspencer3hmm21:27
micahga lot :P21:27
asacno21:27
rickspencer3sadly, I can't answer that because I don't know what you mean :/21:27
asache wonders if we have to go for iceweasel or abrowser now21:27
rickspencer3ah21:28
rickspencer3good question21:28
rickspencer3the answer is "no"21:28
micahgk21:28
rickspencer3it's pretty common for folks who distribute FIrefox to change the search provider21:28
rickspencer3(and there are other common changes like links and stuff)21:28
rickspencer3however, if you change it too much from the default experience, then Mozilla requests you don't use the "Firefox" brand21:29
sebnerrickspencer3: btw, secret question ... Alice told me that she'll reply in the New Year, so I'm wondering if I should write a reminder mail. people tend to forget poor sebner :(21:29
rickspencer3suffice to say, this change will not suprise the great folks at Mozilla21:29
rickspencer3sebner, hmm21:29
rickspencer3I'll see her next week21:29
rickspencer3find me online next week and I can reconnect you guys21:29

sebnerrickspencer3: sure. thanks a lot. I just want to make sure I'm not that annoying to you guys21:30
rickspencer3sebner, yeah, this is one that is ok, and like I say, Mozilla will not be surprised by this change21:30

rickspencer3have I mentioned lately what cool guys the Mozilla team are?21:35
mconnor;)21:35
mconnorI do stuff21:35
rickspencer3so apparantly, there is a wide spread belief that Google is an open source company that donates their services to the internet, and never monetizes searches21:36
sebnermconnor: Are you now here to tease asac and rickspencer3?21:36
rickspencer3this makes it rather harder to discuss search providers than I thought it would be :)21:36

mconnorsebner: I've been hanging in this channel for a year or so, I think21:39
sebnermconnor: I not sure I've seen you before (I'm also quite a while here), you are not talking that much usually are you?21:39
mconnorno, I lurk a lot21:39
sebnerhahah21:40
* sebner too21:40
mconnorI don't troll Linux people anymore21:41
mconnor;)21:41
mconnorpeople take it seriously since the whole iceweasel thing21:41
sebnermconnor: Really a honor to meet you and I'm sure you hear that a lot but thx for making such a great browser :)21:41
mconnor:)21:41
sebnermconnor: well, Debian != Ubuntu21:41
mconnortrue, moreso these days, but people took that whole thing as a giant "I hate Linux" thing21:42
rickspencer3:(21:43
mconnorwhich isn't true, but meh21:43
sebnermconnor: I think I'm a little bit too "young" as I'm using Ubuntu since 2006 and that naming thing happened in 2005 iirc? I've always thought that Debian is too strict regarding this issue but we have to respect the DFSG21:44
mconnornaming/branding is a hard thing21:45
sebnerI guess so :(21:46
mconnorI watch how projects handle it, it's hard21:46
mconnorUbuntu has the same tricky thing with downstream distros21:47
sebnermconnor: yeah, what do you think about our "abrowser"21:47
mconnorsebner: it's not a bad approach, I haven't looked at the details21:50
sebnermconnor: I'm just wondering about Fedora using Firefox where Debian is not. Fedora is known to be pretty strict with that stuff normally21:55
asacsebner: you can look yourself21:57
asacfedora uses firefox21:57
asactrademark != license21:58
asacand they seem to have the same approach as we have wrt the non-free icon21:58
asacif you ask why fedora thinks thats ok, you need to ask them directly i guess21:59
sebnerasac: kk, just thought he might have an idea as he's not only lurking around in Ubuntu land I suppose :)22:00
asaci think fedora is most concerned about binary blobs for code22:01
asacas those cannot be changed22:01
asacotherwise they probably have a similar practical approach as we wrt to artwork for branding22:02

micahgnews about search engine switch hit phoronix: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Phoronix/~3/AHNpsPqZpzY/vr.php22:09
and`asac: what's the point in having yahoo as search engine?22:10
sebnerand`: €€€22:11
and`k, got it22:11
rickspencer3and`, I thought I was quite direct and concise about the reasoning22:13
rickspencer3was I not?22:13
sebnerheh22:13
rickspencer3phoronix article seems quite factual22:13
and`rickspencer3: I saw a bug on the firefox package about it, didn't read any blog post or other source22:13
rickspencer3I meant that seriously22:13
rickspencer3hope it didn't come off as snitty22:14
rickspencer3ah22:14

rickspencer3heh22:15
rickspencer3I sent to u-devel as well22:15
micahgand`: nothing in there about changing search engine iirc, just people complaining22:16
and`rickspencer3: the reasoning looks sane enough :)22:17
rickspencer3well "reasoning" and "Internet" don't usual cooperate too well22:17
rickspencer3;)22:17
micahgfirefox 3.5 is going to lose its lead as most popular browser in the world soon22:18
sebnermicahg: 3.6 or maybe 4.0 will fill the gap22:18
micahgsebner: it'll take time :)22:19
micahghttp://gs.statcounter.com/#browser_version-ww-weekly-201003-20100422:19
and`rickspencer3: I think Google has become a point of reference for everyone out there, so there will be lots of complains, but that's normal22:19
* sebner is sad about the linux line :(22:19
micahgthis is more accurate: http://gs.statcounter.com/#browser_version-ww-weekly-200927-20100422:20
rickspencer3and`, right22:20
micahgor rather more reflective22:20
rickspencer3and folks tend to think that Google does not monetize your searches or track your usage or anything22:20
* micahg tries to use startpage.com22:21
and`rickspencer3: for example, the yahoo italian website is not really good and it takes sometime to load cause images et all, the google homepage is simple and easy to use, and that's what users want22:21
rickspencer3yeah22:21
rickspencer3well *some* users22:21
rickspencer3but if you like Google, go for it22:22
rickspencer3I will not restrict anyone's choice22:22
and`I'm an Iceweasel user so no prob for me, was just saying my two cents about this :)22:22
sebnerrickspencer3: hasn't history told us that the welfare of the few count more than the welfare of the many? ^^22:22
and`Iceweasel / Chrome22:23
micahgsebner: or the one... :)22:23
* sebner uses FF and epiphany22:23
and`ephy is good too22:23
sebnermicahg: heh :)22:23
and`had some issues with the transition to webkit, but looks fine so far22:23
and`poor asac, he will receive all the complaints himself22:24
and`lol22:24
rickspencer3I think firefox is the best browser atm (for many reasons) so we should keep it as the default22:24
sebnerand`: ack22:25
sebnerrickspencer3: ack22:25
and`yep, it's still the best for now, but won't be in the next 2-3 years22:25
and`or even less22:25
micahgnews hit the planet: http://popey.com/blog/2010/01/26/yahoobuntu/22:26
micahgrickspencer3: you sure about yahoo not tracking search results22:26
* micahg would prefer to give canonical the revenue :)22:27
sebnermicahg: what's the difference in google tracking and yahoo?22:27
sebnerand`: chrome is overhyped imho22:28
micahgsebner: good builds profiles of your searching to display ads elsewhere22:28
micahgs/good/google/g22:28
sebnerhaha22:29
sebnermicahg: and yahoo?22:29
micahgsebner: idk22:29
rickspencer3micahg, I don't know what htey track22:29
rickspencer3but I know that they don't share *any* usage data with their partners22:29
micahgk22:29
* sebner continues using Google and I'm happy with it22:30
sebnerrickspencer3: But you get a fix amount of money or does that depend on how many user really use Yahoo as default search?22:31
rickspencer3it depends on the how many people use it22:31
rickspencer3but they just say how much we made22:31
sebneric22:32
sebnerrickspencer3: Can I ask you a "delicate" question?22:34
rickspencer3sure22:34
rickspencer3go for it22:34
sebnerrickspencer3: Will you stay with Google search or don't you care what you use (Yahoo)?22:34
* rickspencer3 wishes more people would ask me questions rather than make up crazy stories for their blogs ;)22:34
rickspencer3hmmm22:34
sebnerlol22:34
rickspencer3I think I'll switch to Google22:34
rickspencer3when I do normal searches, I don't find much difference22:34
rickspencer3for a while, i had a really bad taste in my mouth concerning Google22:35
rickspencer3so I didn't use Google for like 6 months22:35
rickspencer3Yahoo! was fine *except* when searching for programming related topics22:35
rickspencer3so like "pygtk format TreeView Column" that kind of stuff always seemed better on Google22:35
sebnerrickspencer3: so that's the reason for Google or is it out of habit?22:37
rickspencer3no, because I occasionally search for coding related stuff, and Google does better with that than Yahoo!22:37
rickspencer3I also use Google code search once every week or two22:37
sebnerkk22:38
sebnerthx for answering :)22:38
rickspencer3sure sebner, no problem22:44
rickspencer3what about you?22:44
sebnerCopy&Paste22:44
sebner* sebner continues using Google and I'm happy with it22:44
sebnerrickspencer3: on every firefox update I have the bug that my search engines are reset to default Ubuntu Firefox so I don't really care for the extra work anyways22:46
asacsebner: thats a bug as you said22:50
asacwe know how to fix it22:50
asacwe were just trying to find a better way to fix it22:50
sebnerasac: yeah I know, just wanted to mention it to rickspencer3 :P22:50
sebnerasac: for the last years? ^^22:50
asacyears?22:50
rickspencer3uh?22:50
asacit came to my attention only after ffox 3.522:50
rickspencer3asac, as soon as we find someone to replace you, I'll assign the bug to them while they think I am still in charge22:51
* micahg was going to try to fix the bug at some point...22:51
asacrickspencer3: heh. ok.22:52
rickspencer3micahg, please, by all means22:52
asacrickspencer3: anyway, that just needs to get done. and this change elevates the importance (its even on the planning wiki)22:52
rickspencer3yes22:52
rickspencer3thanks asac22:52
sebnerasac: ok, you might be right but 3.5 is already pretty old too :P22:53
asacits there since karmic, yes.22:54
* sebner uses lucid22:54
sebnerso old ..22:54
asacmaybe you ran the dailies ;)22:54
asacsebner: thats good. it means you will see the fix first ;)22:54
sebnerasac: ;)22:56
sebnerasac: I use -devel on my productive machine since ~gutsy I think22:56
sebnerhuhu ccheney :D23:00
ccheneysebner: hi, my power went out for a while :-\23:00
sebnerccheney: O_o, what a horror :\23:00
ccheneysebner: wasn't too long but it did manage to set off my smoke detectors, i found out one of them appears to be defective23:04
ccheney~ 10 smoke detectors going off at the same time isn't very pleasant23:04
sebnerO_o23:06
sebnerI suppose so :)23:06
sebnerrickspencer3: typo?23:13
sebnerWe23:13
sebnerwould certainly want to do anything to damage this relationship.23:13
rickspencer3yeah yeah23:13
sebner:)23:14
ccheneyhey what happened to the daily bootcharts after jan 13?23:15
ccheneydid it move somewhere else?23:16
asacbdrung: xul-ext-greasemonkey is broken with ffox 3.623:16
asacactually it breaks firefox 3.623:16
ccheneyhmm just noticed he asked that in the wrong channel23:16
asacfirefox only starts once23:16
BUGabundoohh I just read23:17
BUGabundowe are now using yahoo ?!!?!23:17
BUGabundoWTH23:17
BUGabundosome one smack me a big one, I want to wake up23:17
* BUGabundo and so it begins.... trolls coming :)23:18
asacbdrung: can you poke and see if there is anything missing in package that is in .xpi?23:18
asac.xpi seems to work23:18
asaci noticed that you just put the .xpi in the orig?23:18
asacwhy not use xpi-unpack?23:19
asacputting xpi in orig isnt nice for debdiffs ;)23:19
BUGabundomew23:20
BUGabundodidn't even get a reply23:20
asacyou didnt say anything ;)23:21
asacccheney: so you said your last status on libsoup has duplicated symbols?23:25
asacwith the libglib?23:25
asacon the system?23:25
ccheneyyea23:25
asacor even inside libsoup23:25
asacccheney: which symbols?23:25
ccheneyGCancellable23:25
asacwhy do you need to add that?23:25
ccheneyi think there were a few others23:25
* ccheney is working on finishing the upload for OOo 3.2.0~rc3 since doko contacted him about it, then will be on that, assuming my power doesn't go out anymore today :(23:26
asaci mean if its already in glib then we can just use that GCancellable23:26
asacsure23:26
asacjust want to help23:26
ccheneyyea i think i would need to include the header for it23:26
asacright.23:26
ccheneyseems to be the gio.h that i should be including?23:26
ccheneythat was part of what i was talking about earlier23:27
asacgio.h feelslike its a high level header23:27
rickspencer3didn't this exact same conversation happen like 4 hours ago?23:27
ccheneyat least when looking through some of the headers they have a way to cause it to fail out if you include them directly23:27
asac/usr/include/glib-2.0/gio/gio.h:#include <gio/gcancellable.h>23:27
ccheneyrickspencer3: i thought so23:27
sebnerBUGabundo: €€€€€€€€€€€€23:28
asacccheney: yes, they usually prevent direct inclusion ... except from within glib code itself23:28
BUGabundosebner: ahah23:28
ccheneyasac: yea and including gio/gcancellable.h directly appears to cause it to bomb out23:28
ccheneyasac: yea23:28
ccheneyasac: so sounds like my plan to include gio.h should work then, i think that was what was happening by accident before23:29
ccheneyi had stuck gio.h in glib-copy.h without remembering i had done it and then removed it :-\23:29
asaci really think its too much to include full gio23:29
asacyou ried to set the constants?23:30
asactried23:30
asac#if !defined (__GIO_GIO_H_INSIDE__) && !defined (GIO_COMPILATION)23:30
ccheneyoh yea i suppose i could fake that part23:30
sebnerasac: you really only need to answer with "€€€€€€€" when people are asking about the switch :P23:31
BUGabundoheeheh23:31
BUGabundosebner: I bet, since I see non other23:31
BUGabundobut asac knows me well enough if we wants to explain the _oficial_ one one day :D23:32
sebnerhahaha23:32
asacthe discussion is on -devel for now ... i try to stay out of it as long as possible23:33
asac(mailing list)23:33
asacif you have particular questions, shoot though23:33
ccheneyi'm sure it will be easily changeable to whatever you want, unlike what will probably happen with iPhoneOS 4.0 wrt Bing23:33
rickspencer3there are only two changes23:35
rickspencer31. search page will respect your search provider choice23:35
rickspencer32. default will be Yahoo!23:35
rickspencer3it's not really complex23:35
rickspencer3:)23:36
BUGabundoasac: I'm subed to most Ubuntu MLs. but no longer read them :\23:37
BUGabundorickspencer3: as I hoped23:37
BUGabundoI'm not worried23:37
ccheneyBUGabundo: so now you can set your default to Bing ;-)23:37
BUGabundowell then again, I use mostly Chormium now23:37
=== asac changed the topic of #ubuntu-mozillateam to: Welcome to the Ubuntu Mozilla Team: | Mailing List: ubuntu-mozillateam@lists.ubuntu.com | to get firefox 3.6 run: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable" - then use update-manager to update your system | whats up with firefox + search + lucid: 1. search page will respect your search provider choice; 2. default will be Yahoo!
rickspencer3I don't think Mozilla shops Bing yet23:37
BUGabundoGET WAY GET AWAY ccheney23:38
rickspencer3lol23:38
rickspencer3thanks asac23:38
=== asac changed the topic of #ubuntu-mozillateam to: Welcome to the Ubuntu Mozilla Team: | Mailing List: ubuntu-mozillateam@lists.ubuntu.com | to get firefox 3.6 run: "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable" - then use update-manager to update your system | whats up with firefox + search + lucid: 1. search page will respect your search provider choice; 2. default will be Yahoo! - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-January/030065.html
asacheh23:38
BUGabundodo ppl even read /TOPICs this days ?23:38
ccheneyso does the yahoo change only affect lucid or the 3.6 backports as well?23:38
asacno ... but i can say: see /topic23:38
asac;)23:38
BUGabundoaha23:39
rickspencer3I think that mozilla actually recommends bing over google for privacy reasons, but there wasn't enough user demand to ship the plugin or something23:39
asacccheney: lucid only23:39
BUGabundoso direct question:23:39
BUGabundoasac: rickspencer3: Why ?23:39
ccheneyasac: ok23:39
asacBUGabundo: why what?23:39
rickspencer3BUGabundo, why the change?23:39
BUGabundowhy yahoo after google for so long ?23:39
BUGabundoand why at distro level23:39
asacread the mail23:39
asacin the topic23:39
asac;)23:39
BUGabundoand not follow upstream23:39
rickspencer3because Yahoo! has offered to do a rev share with us23:39
rickspencer3"us" being Canonical, I suppose23:40
BUGabundo(11:33:33 PM) asac: if you have particular questions, shoot though23:40
asacyeah23:40
rickspencer3so basically, this will generate revenue for Ubuntu development23:40
rickspencer3but yeah, it's in the mail ;)23:40
BUGabundorickspencer3: I know you know this: Canonical != Ubuntu23:40
rickspencer3right23:40
rickspencer3except that Canonical funds Ubuntu23:40
BUGabundoso partenesiph should be with the community23:40
BUGabundoyeah I know23:41
sebnerrickspencer3: asac You should really write all the stuff down on a wiki page or something like that, repeating it over and over again is extremely weakeing23:41

hggdh:-)23:43
bdrungasac: the xpi in orig is not my fault. i prefer xpi-unpack for generating the source (like you). i did only the merge, but i do not use greasemonkey. so i am not the best person to search for the bug.23:43
BUGabundobut their actual fisiologic sex23:43
