[11:16] nigel_nb: ubuntu-main-sponsors exists for that reason, if you have a patch [11:16] huh? "Defenestration is the act of throwing someone or something out of a window" [11:17] yes :) [11:17] dont know what you mean [11:17] the laptop? not yet [11:17] haha [11:17] * Hobbsee pulls out her netbook to try [11:17] can you set priority of this bug, it seems to affect number of poeple [11:17] Hobbsee, I can try then :) [11:18] Hobbsee, I'm not an expert though, will you be around in case I have doubts? :) [11:18] and it bricks the damn computers, seems a rather serious bug [11:18] nigel_nb: #ubuntu-devel tends to have people around in it, who woudl be more helpful than myself, but sure [11:19] Hobbsee: in last month there where few days where I did NOT found a serious bug in anything I attempted to use in ubuntu. I really hoped that today simple "install the ubuntu on this (compatible) laptop" would go well. [11:20] surprises me you're still here then [11:20] but you do manage to find the oddest bugs. [11:20] yes I have unique tallent to debug well [11:20] or rather, Im one of few few peole that care enought to report and to come here [11:20] for 1 bug report I bet there is 100-10000 affected people that do not report [11:21] what better place to get the bug fixed then here Hobbsee? Thanks to me a lot of serious bug got fixed faster [11:22] true [11:22] downloading, downloading... [11:22] btw even one of my ssh (tiny) patches got included to upstream :) [11:22] so... can you set prio of this bug? [11:22] btw, would it be ok if I paste a 3 line ascii art riddle [11:23] perhaps not super family friendly, but fun I guess. It summs up my last days of trying new stuff in ubuntu [11:23] preferably not, and i figured i'd test it out before putting a prio on it [11:37] OpenPGP in kmail not working, multiply reporters.

[12:17] rejected [12:20] ah well, Hobbsee was one of the "few people" ;) [12:20] indeed [12:20] i'm not sure if i should still have those rights, but there you go [12:20] it's probably part of -quality [12:20] Hobbsee, you're core-dev?

LimCore filed it, LimCore commented on it, LimCore changed status to confirmed [16:27] LimCore: that does look bad... [16:27] no [16:27] Zaki Akhmad asked it [16:27] I see nothing that says anyone else touched the bug [16:27] LimCore: I didn't say wrong...I said looks bad [16:27] LimCore converted question to bug [16:28] 3 other bug commented it [16:28] 3 other people commented it [16:28] charlie-tca: how about reading my bug report fully, and noticing a link to the question with comments from multiply reporters? [16:29] If it is from a question, why wasn't the question converted back to a bug? [16:29] it was! I did it [16:29] Oh [16:29] duh [16:29] as I written there... [16:29] LimCore wrote 6 hours ago: Confirmed in the original question: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub/+question/89461 [16:29] charlie-tca: maybe Q's converted to bugs should import comments? [16:30] like going the other way [16:30] I don't know, but reading the report, I see "The original reporter had the problem after upgraded from Jaunty to Karmic." But the original reporter that I can see is the person that filed the bug, LimCore [16:31] not a good idea, IMHO, because comments on Questions might contain some chatter which is not relevant to an bugreport [16:31] LimCore: you should have put in the description about converting from a question [16:32] charlie-tca: I think it was an honest mistake [16:32] that may be, but it still looks like the same person reported it, commented, and confirmed it. That was my original point. [16:33] micahg: ....... [16:33] micahg: I DID EXACTLY THAT [16:33] are people blind today or what ;) LimCore wrote 6 hours ago: Confirmed in the original question: [url] [16:34] * charlie-tca is half-blind everyday [16:34] LimCore: no, that was a comment [16:34] some other dude reported it (as a Q) [16:34] then peoople reported it too [16:34] it should have been in the original bug description...

[19:58] yeah, fortunately the requirements are small and easy to check [19:58] micahg, awesome ! thanks [19:59] I was really surprised to see that ~half of the team didn't even signed the CoC [19:59] * hggdh was not *that* surprised. But a bit disapointed, though. [19:59] I was more surprised on how many joined the team and never did anything... [20:00] would be nice to do the same exercise with teams like ubuntu-testing [20:00] it's disappointing to see how few people actually read and follow the documentation. [20:00] yeah like ~48 % with 0 karma is pretty disappointing [20:00] pedro_: if you could also prepare a stock reply for people that apply but shouldn't be accepted, that would be great [20:01] pedro_: a question: *how exactly* can we help here? [20:01] micahg, i'll do that and put it on the wiki page [20:01] pedro_: thanks [20:02] yofel, it's basically: check if the members who apply for renewal fit all the new requirements , if they do approve the membership and if they don't well don't do it [20:02] yofel, nothing more complex than that [20:02] ok, easy enough :) [20:03] indeed ;-) [20:03] :P Since I joined the papercutters and subscribed to the Nautilus package I'm flooded with bug mail. [20:03] we can reject them if they don't meet requirements.. but we'd try to inform them of what needs to be met.. [20:03] yes [20:03] Stock reply, anyone? [20:04] how are we proving they've read How To Triage? [20:04] qense: didn't micahg propose that just now? [20:04] bcurtiswx, that's tricky to check, but if they say so that's enough [20:04] yofel: yep :) [20:04] ok [20:04] good :) [20:04] pedro_: if only the world worked on word of mouth alone :P will do :D [20:04] pedro_: is there a way to comment when petitioning? [20:05] I'd say: karma > 0 and if so, reasonable triaging results [20:05] remember that we have the ubuntu bugcontrol team for asking complex questions regarding triague ;-) [20:05] yes. The idea is *not* to replace bug-control [20:06] oops i was missing the "all new members/renewals need to send an email to the bugsquad list" [20:06] qense: can we search through bug comments easily for the specific launchpad members requesting membership? [20:06] does this help with the mentorship as well, or are these people unmentored? [20:06] bcurtiswx_: bugs.launchpad.net/~username ? [20:06] qense: yes DUH [20:06] * bcurtiswx_ walks in shame [20:06] hi pedro_ ;) [20:07] aww i made him shame quit [20:07] micahg: the bugsquad is not required to be mentored [20:07] micahg, well if they plan to join the bugcontrol team, for sure ;-) [20:08] hola BlackZ! [20:08] qense: it is time, is it not? [20:08] k, so the new bugsquad is supposed to be a more qualified version of bugsquad, but still at your own pace, unmentored [20:08] hggdh: yes, the time has come [20:08] ;) [20:09] qense: I am there [20:09] thx [20:09] pedro_: are we setting expiring membership as well for the new bugsquad after reapplying or is it forever? [20:09] ok, going home.. see me on bcurtiswx when i get there [20:09] folks -- whoever would like to cheer for qense, he is applying for membership now on -meetings [20:09] bye [20:09] hggdh: aww, is he early on? [20:10] nah, probably not [20:10] bcurtiswx_: difficult to say, depends on who else is there. He may jump [20:10] maybe i'll make it home b4.. and i'll give ya a cheer [20:10] gonna drive like a maniac.. ok j/k.. bbs [20:10] that would be great, but please drive careful! :D [20:11] I'm not worth it! [20:11] micahg, the subscription period is set to 1 year on the team, but we can change it to be something like 3 months and after that 1 year [20:11] what do you guys think about that? [20:11] we have a similar setup for the bugcontrol team [20:12] I agree with a short first period. A lot of people leave the first month and this makes sure we don't keep too many of those ghosts in the team. [20:12] +1 [20:12] +1 [20:12] +1 [20:12] +1 [20:13] ok cool ;-) [20:14] LOL [20:15] darn! unstable themes are dangerous!

[20:18] * micahg doesn't remember anyone else's karma being mentioned in applications, but mine... [20:18] it was a little joke in my approval blurb [20:19] They just check if your karma isn't very low. [20:31] qense: went yet? [20:31] no, I think I'm up next [20:33] yes. the EMEA is always fast [20:34] Are other boards slower? [20:35] yes, some are. Quite more so.

[20:41] (and coreutils GIT, also) [20:41] a command-line IRC client/server [20:41] I have not [20:42] Isn't IRSSI the hardcore IRC client? [20:43] yes irssi is considered the hardcore IRC client. But I (personally) do not like it, and found weechat to be easier [20:43] i never used it.. thats why im using xchat-gnome [20:44] so am I [20:44] I also use gedit, no vim or emacs [20:44] oooohhhh, no vi or emacs, ooooohhhh [20:44] everytime I try gedit, I end up CTRL/something, and messing the text [20:44] I know, I'm one of those bad youngsters. The new generation doesn use CLI! [20:45] * hggdh has just been reminded of age ... [20:45] * hggdh spits the denture while ROFL, and has to get it cleaned before reuse [20:46] I hope I didn't hurt your feelings too much! [20:46] * micahg feels old after looking at qense's age on the wiki [20:47] I got sent the job description for the GNOME contractor Canonical was looking for. That was funny. [20:47] my sons are older... [20:47] apply... [20:48] I don't have the time [20:50] hggdh: you do know weechat in lucid is up to date? [20:51] I have used it with no issues yet [20:51] Is that going to be a newer version? [20:52] Congrats, qense [20:52] charlie-tca: yes, this is the next version. Lucid has 0.3.0, and the GIT is at 0.3.2 [20:53] charlie-tca: thanks [20:53] hggdh: Great! Let me know when it is ready, okay? [20:54] charlie-tca: will do. I have been using it with no issues so far, but it is still under development [20:54] I been bouncing back and forth between weechat and xchat. Xchat don't work right in lucid, though [20:54] I tried xchat for quite some time, but it was breaking on encrypted conversations [20:56] I can use it with ssl, at least === emma_ is now known as emma [21:10] I'm off, bye guys!

[22:14] I don't know [22:14] hm, we're +Ccntz [22:14] not it then [22:14] * yofel goes checking what that means for ircd-seven [22:14] well, there is that, also, we are now -seven [22:17] hm, you can't send messages to the channel from the outside, but should be fine otherwise. If ircd-seven isn't acting up [22:56] charlie-tca - generally, we don't set desktop bugs (ie, those in https://edge.launchpad.net/~desktop-bugs/+packagebugs) to triaged until they've been forwarded upstream, if they're an upstream issue. otherwise, they will just sit around in launchpad for years until somebody looks at them again [22:57] * charlie-tca slaps head; he knew that, but screwed up [22:57] (i just noticed you set bug 498366 to triaged) [22:57] Launchpad bug 498366 in gnome-screensaver "built-in X.Org screensaver always activates in Xubuntu after 10 minutes" [Low,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/498366 [22:57] charlie-tca - no worries ;) [22:57] Why is that a package bug? [22:58] that is an issue in xubuntu 9.10, what does packaging have to do with it? [22:59] charlie-tca - did i say anything about packaging? gnome-screensaver is one of the packages we look after on the desktop team. so, we wouldn't set it to triaged until it's been forwarded upstream [22:59] although, in this case, it's not clear what the issue is yet (or if there is a bug at all) [22:59] It hasn't worked in xubuntu since karmic 2 [23:01] hmm, no idea where to ask so here it goes: I've created files !a !b !_j and j - then I've listed files sorted by name - why is !_j after j and not after !a and !b? [23:29] so how do I reply to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/462994 ?? [23:29] Launchpad bug 462994 in telepathy-mission-control-5 "Account details unremovable." [Low,Invalid] [23:34] I don't understand how would someone expect removing package to remove his own configuration but I guess I'm just too used to Linux and not used to Windows.. [23:35] bcurtiswx: is the bug that if mission control is running when files in home directory are deleted it recreates them at shutdown? [23:35] bcurtiswx: or that --purge doesn't remove files from home directory? [23:36] i am not 100% sure, but it appears that way... actually both may happen and i think were commented on [23:45] bcurtiswx: removing ~/.mission-control/ was enough for me to remove accounts - after I've logged out and logged in I had to create new account in empathy [23:45] hmm.. [23:45] oh well
