[01:50] hi/2 all [01:50] i fixed my network problems with ppa, im back to contributing packages :) [01:50] apachelogger: Pici [01:50] apachelogger: ping [01:50] Riddell: ping [01:51] JontheEchidna: ping [01:51] groo_: I guess you weren't actually looking for me. [01:52] Pici: lol one tab too many, unless you are a motu [01:52] * groo_ is hunting for motus oO [01:52] groo_: Nope ;) [01:52] Pici: hmmmm snif snif... [01:53] * groo_ scents a motu near him [01:53] Pici: prove you arent a motu! [01:55] anyway :D im opening a needs-packaging for kx11grab [01:55] and i did a package for the newer skrooge... since the old version is already in kubuntu, what kind of bug i open? [needs-upgrading]? or something similar? [01:56] * persia notes that when the hunter announces their intent, the quarry have new incentives to make themselves scarce [01:58] * groo_ aims for persia === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [02:30] oh shit, bug 438279 never got merged upstream [02:30] Launchpad bug 438279 in packagekit "Kpackagekit ask to report some errors " [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/438279 [02:31] * JontheEchidna prepares an emergency upload [02:34] I'll be marking dupes for that bug for weeks now :( [02:45] JontheEchidna: hi jon [02:45] can some motu sponsor this: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?upid=7805 [02:45] JontheEchidna: jon a question, i did a skrooge 0.6.x package... since skrooge is already in kubuntu (old version) what is the proper thing to do? [02:46] file an upgrade bug [02:48] JontheEchidna: yeah, a url pls? its the same procedure but [needs-update] instead of [needs-packaging]? [02:48] "Update to skrooge 0.6.0", add the "upgrade" tag to the bug, subscribe universe sponsors [02:49] JontheEchidna: ok, but nevermind, someone punch me to it :D [02:49] JontheEchidna: but kx11grab is new :) [02:50] brace yourself :P [02:50] JontheEchidna: hu? ¬¬ [02:50] for the revu [02:50] JontheEchidna: ???? [02:50] lol [02:50] you wanted me to revu your kx11grab package, yes? [02:51] JontheEchidna: ah yes :) shoot [02:51] :) [02:52] JontheEchidna: in theory it should be all a ok, since i did pratically the same for the wally package [02:52] JontheEchidna: btw kudos for making motu :) [02:53] groo_: well, I became motu for almost a year, but thanks all the same :D [02:53] *almost a year ago [02:53] JontheEchidna: news take some time to get here :D [02:56] JontheEchidna: so? wheres the revu? lol [02:56] working on it [02:57] JontheEchidna: thanks :) [03:25] groo_: all done [03:26] JontheEchidna: anything for me to do? [03:27] yeah [03:27] http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/kx11grab <- pointy-clicky link [03:27] JontheEchidna: oh nvm, my browser was slow :D [03:30] JontheEchidna: thanks for the looong review :) a lot of broken stuff, gonna get to work tonight (if i can stay up (im old you know ;)) or the best, tomorrow, and upload a new version :) [03:30] :) [03:31] that is a fairly exhaustive list. I don't forsee any further issues other than the ones I've listed [03:31] JontheEchidna: very complete indeed, gonna learn a lot as usual :) [03:32] JontheEchidna: i need to have more attention to details.. and lintian :P [03:32] hehe [03:32] JontheEchidna: but the more oficial packages i do, the sharper i get... [03:32] running lintian over the source.changes file and the .deb file give new insights that debuild -S -sa won't give [03:32] JontheEchidna: in my defense... the cbds is a moving target, i never know what goes with what [03:32] JontheEchidna: how do i do that? [03:33] groo_: lintian kx11grab_0.1.12-0ubuntu1_source.changes [03:33] and lintian mydeb.deb [03:33] JontheEchidna: nice, didnt knew that :) [03:34] oh, and actually there's some new packaging conventions that don't use cdbs at all, that are currently coming in to favor [03:34] I'm perfectly fine with sponsoring cdbs-based packages, though [03:36] JontheEchidna: ¬¬ like i said... moving target... where can i get some more info on what is the best practice? besides being informed in here :D [03:36] so yeah, things are moving a bit fast. Every release the KDE cdbs stuff has changed, and now this release things are starting not to use cdbs at all, but new debhelper magic [03:36] JontheEchidna: no, pls, not dh --kde... its a nightmare to costumize :P [03:36] customize [03:37] heh, yeah. Like I said, I'm perfectly fine with sponsoring cdbs packages [03:37] source format 3.0 is the other big thing [03:37] JontheEchidna: but where can i get some more info? is there a wiki or something? [03:37] allows you to use orig.tar.bz2 instead of orig.tar.gz if you wish, and has quilt built in [03:38] JontheEchidna: nice :) [03:38] this is the big article about it: http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.0 [03:38] JontheEchidna: i think i playerd with it for my rekonq packages [03:38] JontheEchidna: which btw i still defend as the big change for kubuntu (rekonq as default!!!) pls think about it [03:39] well, it's not up to one person to make the decision about default browser, you must understand [03:39] The Kubuntu Council will decide that [03:39] and I'm just one of six council members [03:40] I must say that, if not for 10.04, I'd love to see rekonq as default for 10.10 [03:40] I'm just a bit leery about changing the default browser to a newcomer for an LTS cycle [03:41] but then, that's just my opinion [03:41] JontheEchidna: newcomer? did you check latest 0.3.92? [03:41] relatively speaking, it's been around for less than a year [03:41] JontheEchidna: im following rekonq since the begining... granted.. its new, but its very stable and featured.. only lacks java for now [03:42] JontheEchidna: rekonq its a shell for webkit, and yes, its new, but it has a lean codebase and very few bugs... [03:42] I still get the odd crash with it from time to time [03:43] JontheEchidna: from a user perspective i believe its much more usable then konqueror... since its almost identical to chromium, and its a browser, not a army swiss knife like konqueror (which i love, but its not for the average joe) [03:43] JontheEchidna: and you DONT with konqueror? :D [03:43] nope [03:44] JontheEchidna: can you point me to a url that crashes rekonq? [03:44] no, it's a bit more random than that [03:44] JontheEchidna: what version? [03:44] 0.3.90 [03:45] JontheEchidna: strange, i very rarelly have crashes with rekonq, and i browse with it a lot (even benchmarks i do) :D [03:45] But like I said, I love rekonq too, it's just a bit young to be set out as default browser to be supported for 5 years since it's less than a year old and has not had widespread testing [03:46] and this is all my opinion [03:47] JontheEchidna: i agree in terms.. but my concern is that konqueror is even more fragile for browsing then rekonq is... and hasnt been any work for it in a long time (besides the bug fixing), not talking about khtml but the fronteend in itself [03:47] since 4.0 it has stayed basically the same [03:47] well, the interface hasn't really changed, but that' [03:47] khtml is mych better now [03:47] s really to be expected. [03:48] there have been plenty of bugfixes for the shell though [03:48] dfaure is paid to do such things, afaik [03:48] JontheEchidna: yes i agree... but konkie is a beast.. the bugs are spread across is many functions, but the browser part is probably one of the more neglected ones [03:49] JontheEchidna: konkie is old and it shows... rekonq is well.. peppy and fresh , like wii :D [03:49] heh, <3 wii [03:49] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7PhJp3ciRQ [03:50] just put your wife/mother in law, grandmother in front of both konkie and rekonq and ask them to browse the web.. see which one gives the best usability results... [03:50] oh wow, that brings back some memories. can't believe 05 was 5 years ago [03:51] JontheEchidna: :) [03:51] JontheEchidna: im not the only one getting old :P [03:52] brb [03:52] but I'm only 18 D: [04:19] JontheEchidna: im gonna be 35 this year... [04:21] groo_: :) [04:22] freeflying: :D [07:14] ryanakca: does firefox-branding have a replaces kfi? because it should :S [07:20] morning Kubuntus [07:23] a very good morning to you too Riddell! [07:23] * apachelogger thinks that diffing on revu is broken [07:23] Karmic users needed to test Amarok from ~kubuntu-ppa/beta [07:31] what is going on with user management in KDE SC 4.4? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=227079 [07:31] KDE bug 227079 in general "Manage Users module of the systems settings program reports itself missing" [Crash,Unconfirmed] [07:32] why does it require a python module? Looks like Kubuntu specific [07:32] that is userconfig [07:32] and yeah it is kubuntu specific [07:32] and no I do not like it being pyware [07:32] and how can I make this work again? [07:32] and yes KDE should fix up kuser :P [07:34] Mamarok: what does it spit out if you run kcmshell4 userconfig [07:34] in konsole obviously :) [07:34] Mamarok: bug should be closed as downstream though [07:34] it triggers the same crash as before [07:35] Mamarok: no, I mean what does it say there? [07:35] if nothing ... run kdebugdialog and turn on everything, then try again [07:35] ah, second... [07:36] apachelogger: http://pastebin.com/d52c67e8 [07:39] ehm [07:39] the fuck [07:39] Mamarok: is your system all up-to-date? [07:39] especially pyqt4 [07:39] I would say so, but let me check if I missed an update... [07:39] because I should have fixed that bug 2 days ago [07:39] or so I thought [07:39] Error: Launchpad bug 2 could not be found [07:40] yep, all up-to-date [07:41] oha [07:41] neato [07:41] for some reason I have debian/patches/patches [07:41] very weird [07:41] hm, I don't have that many bindings installed though, only python-qt-4 and python-qt4-dbus [07:42] shouldn't others be installed if there is a hard dependency? [07:42] you must have python-kde4, otherwise I dont think it would come to fail at that bug in pyqt4 [07:43] that is installed [07:43] ehm [07:44] for some reason the whole pyqt4 package does not apply patches [07:44] nice... [07:45] you know [07:45] everytime I look at some pystuff I get to hate it more [07:45] I feel with you :) [07:47] apachelogger: phil had a query about your patch by the way http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.pyqt-pykde/18505 [07:47] Riddell: some thing in userconfig [07:50] hm [07:51] somehow I managed to screw up that pyqt4 for karmic [07:54] hm [07:54] pyqt4 uses quilt but doesnt use quilt Oo [07:54] insane [07:55] apachelogger: it's source format 3.0 in lucid so there the patches get applied when the package is extracted [07:55] no so in karmic [07:55] it'll need debian/rules in karmic [07:59] yeah, bad backport :P [08:06] shtylman: has the button order changed in ubiquity? [08:07] shtylman: funky new progress bar but I think it caused a crash [08:08] Riddell: userproperties-details.ui from userconfig [08:09] as per http://pastebin.com/d52c67e8 [08:09] morning :) [08:12] shtylman: bug 522502 [08:12] Launchpad bug 522502 in ubiquity "kubuntu ubiquity crashes on partitioner" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/522502 [08:12] shtylman: also the new "update from internet" button could do with some explanation [09:15] hey [09:16] Riddell: just a quick head up on M.I: I uncovered some issues which needs a new version of libindicate and libindicate-qt, hopefully it should be there before the end of this week [09:26] jussi01, tsimpson: ping [09:29] apachelogger: pong [09:30] agateau: does that mean we get the spark icon back? :) [09:30] tsimpson: sudo cp /home/apachelogger/kubotu.conf /etc/init/ [09:31] tsimpson: gotta test if that beast actually works upon startup [09:31] which is really what it is meant for :D [09:31] Mamarok: please try upgrading with pyton-qt4 from the staging ppa, if I am not mistaken it should fix userconfig [09:31] * apachelogger reboots to test upstart job [09:32] copied [09:34] tsimpson: thanks, seems to be working [09:35] kubotu: you lucky bot now got autostarting upon boot :D [09:38] Riddell: yes [09:38] Riddell: that's the major issue it's addressing :) === steveire_ is now known as steveire [09:46] kubotu: python? [09:46] kubotu: hello [09:46] hello owner :) [09:46] oh my :D [09:47] next release ok kubotu will say "yes master" :) [09:47] s/ok/of/ [09:49] well, I think that can be easily changed wihtout new release :D [09:49] anyhow [09:49] kubotu: karmastats [09:49] 499 items. Best: C (193); Worst: < (-97) [09:49] hm [09:50] we need a policy to use <= instead of <-- [09:55] apachelogger: hm, no staging ppa for me today, I still need this machine for work this afternoon, so I can't afford to break anything [09:55] it wasn't that important, I rarely use the userconfig, was just trying to find some settings in the groups when I stumbled on it [09:56] apachelogger: ++ [09:56] (for the init script) [10:05] Mamarok: there should be no upgrades in staging other than python-qt4 [10:05] and that should at the very best improve something ;) [10:06] apachelogger: you will be responsible for my money loss if it goes wrong :) [10:06] like kde is responsible for the money loss due to kaddressbook :P [10:06] http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=85382 [10:07] indeed I must agree with them users, that the kaddressbook regression is a bit of a fail [10:10] any reason why we have amarok 2.2.1 and not 2.2.2 in the updates-PPA? shouldn't we just copy the 2.2.2 from the backports-PPA (running it together with kde 4.3.5 works) [10:11] a|wen: Amarok 2.2.2 is in the backports, no? [10:11] * apachelogger thinks launchpad needs a central point to control version deployments [10:11] Mamarok: true; but shouldn't 2.2.2 be in updates? [10:12] a|wen: well, yes, but since there is such a confusion about what should go where in those PPAs, a clear policy for everybody should be written in stone once and for all [10:13] else it will continue being a mess at every single release [10:13] claydoh started work on that [10:13] but dropped the ball [10:13] apachelogger: because it is a mess? [10:13] pretty much so [10:14] Mamarok: it was written and posted to the ML a year ago or such ... but well, everybody tends to forget over time :) [10:14] a|wen: that was incomplete [10:14] carving it on the back of the hands maybe? [10:15] a tattoo :) [10:15] which would also be a nice way to identify Kubuntu packagers :) [10:15] apachelogger: i remember it being pretty complete; but we have probably discovered some extra cases that wasn't covered since then [10:16] * a|wen wonders where the groceries-list should go then ;) [10:16] either way the ml is not place to write policies down :P [10:16] true that [10:16] well, amarok 2.2.2 copied to updates [10:18] a|wen: rebuild I hope [10:18] otherwise there might be linkage problems [10:20] apachelogger: it was built against kde 4.3.2 so shouldn't be needed [10:20] you are repsonsible if something breaks :P [10:20] talking about breaking [10:20] Mamarok: did you try new python-qt4? [10:21] apachelogger: i know ;) [10:21] apachelogger: I am doing as we speak... [10:21] kk [10:21] yay! [10:21] it works :) [10:21] * Mamarok hugs apachelogger [10:30] cool [11:47] * jussi01 grumbles at desktop effects being evil and dropping me to a nice balck screen with a flashing _ [11:48] uhm [11:48] is this normal or bad: [11:48] The following packages will be REMOVED: [11:48] libglu1-xorg-dev{u} libkrosspython0{u} liblcms1-dev{u} libmng-dev{u} libpq-dev{u} libqt4-phonon-dev{u} libscim8c2a{u} libsqlite0{u} libsqlite0-dev{u} libxmu-dev{u} [11:48] libxmu-headers{u} qt4-demos{u} qt4-designer{u} qt4-dev-tools{u} qt4-doc{u} xlibmesa-gl-dev{u} [11:48] (wanted to install gtimelog) [11:48] markey: aptitude? [11:48] yes [11:49] "sudo aptitude install gtimelog" [11:49] is what I did [11:49] then I got that result [11:49] curious. I dont use aptitude myself, but lemme try with apt-get [11:49] I love aptitude, normally. it's nice that it does all things in one program [11:49] no need to use several [11:49] If your previous command was `apt-get build-dep ${something}`, this is expected behaviour: it's removing the stuff you don't need and haven't marked as explicitly wanting. [11:50] persia: I didn't do that, not that I could remember [11:50] ahh, I thought it would be something like that [11:50] so, you think it's safe to proceed? [11:50] can I make it not remove this stuff somehow? [11:50] I'd rather keep it... [11:51] markey: `aptitude unmarkauto ` tells it to remove those from the uninstallation candidate list. [11:51] ah [11:52] "sudo apt-get install gtimelog" [11:52] that works better [11:52] it only suggests to remove the packages, but doesn't do it by default [11:52] markey: Be aware that large chunks of the archive are not tested to ensure they are compatible with aptitude's resolver, so you may end up with unexpected behaviour. [11:52] oh [11:52] good to know [11:52] * persia is a huge aptitude fan, but often has to work around certain classes of bug [11:52] isn't that a bit confusing, having two different tools, with different behavior? [11:59] markey: There's lots of that sort of thing around. One claim is that having two different implementations of a policy is a good way to differentiate bugs in policy from bugs in tools. [12:00] yeah, understandable [12:06] Hi Developers! Can anybody tell me about the state of the plasma-widgeth-networkmanagement? [12:07] If I see it right, its not a plasma widget, but knetworkmanager instead, right? [12:07] What happened to the widget? [12:09] olenz: right, the plasmoid isn't finished, maybe agateau will finish it next week [12:09] oh [12:09] so knetworkmanager is only a temporary walkaround? [12:10] yes [12:10] Ah, very good, thanks for this info! [12:42] Lex79: how did you get on with qt 4.6.2? [12:46] * Riddell publishes http://www.kubuntu.org/news/amarok-2.3-beta [13:41] Riddell: the news is wrong, it is in beta backports not n backports [13:41] I'll correct that [13:41] ok thanks [13:42] Riddell: will look into those tonight [13:42] Riddell: progress bar is part of main window now to stop annoying popups [13:48] Riddell: why amarok 2:2.2.2.90-0ubuntu1 still build with kde 4.3.2 ? [13:48] because it's for karmic [13:48] shtylman: keyboard maps is impressively correct [13:49] owh .. for lucid its already build with kde 4.4 ?

I leave it up to you to decide when is best for you [16:54] no jon around, will ping him when he appears [18:05] jussi01: oh yes those details are very much gigglible [18:05] Riddell: obviously we need a new Phonon patch to build Qt [18:05] Lex79: oh. phonon. foo. [18:07] I talked with sandsmark but he didn't reply yet [18:10] Riddell: shared-desktop-ontologies should be in the dep chain already [18:10] not sure whether I uploaded it to lucid though [18:12] apachelogger: it wasn't, I added it to kdebase-runtime depends as per trueg advice and debian practice [18:24] Riddell: hmmm shared-desktop-ontologies was installed already here [18:25] and dolphin settings shouldn't affect showing of content in timeline:/ no? [18:29] Riddell: oha, I added it to kdelibs5 [18:29] since that beasty build-depends on it [18:30] Riddell: possibly I committed the dep to the kdelibs bzr branch [18:31] Nightrose: no it shouldn't [18:31] Riddell: mphf - any other idea why it doesn't work here?

[18:38] indeed... :D [18:38] * Nightrose looks [18:39] The following packages have unmet dependencies: [18:39] virtuoso-server: Depends: virtuoso-opensource-6.0 but it is not going to be installed [18:39] ahhh [18:39] sorry [18:39] sec [18:40] yes virtuosoconverter is installed and in newest version [18:40] virtuoso-server isn't needed, virtuoso-nepomuk is the one now [18:40] k [18:42] <_Groo_> hi/2 all [18:45] <_Groo_> apachelogger: ping [18:46] _Groo_: pong [18:46] Nightrose: well, youd need to runt he converter really [18:46] apachelogger: how do i know that? how does $randomuser know this? ;-) [18:46] <_Groo_> apachelogger: hi apachelogger, im fixing the kx11grab, can you sponsor it when im finished (since jontheechidna is MIA) [18:47] Nightrose: go complain to trueg [18:47] <_Groo_> Nightrose: nepomuk? ;) the converter isnt working very well [18:47] or rather to the virtuoso god [18:47] * Nightrose kicks them [18:47] after all that beast did not even decide to provide the converter themself [18:47] awesome [18:48] * _Groo_ thinks is gonna record a video.. with him crying.. leeva trueg alone!!! lol [18:48] kind of funny when you think about it, one of the pillars of kde depends on an upstream that does not even get to migrate data across versions [18:48] then again kde did not bother to migrate large parts of KDE 3 data either :P [18:49] <_Groo_> apachelogger: it happens in IT... for ex.. im migrating a telecom from WAS 4.0 to 5.x [18:49] no no [18:49] <_Groo_> apachelogger: IBM migration docs: dump 4.0 data, install 4.3 (intermediary).. pray for conversion to work [18:49] * Nightrose grumbles and gets food [18:50] I did never ever see postgres loose data upon upgrade [18:50] <_Groo_> apachelogger: dump again, install 5.x, repeat praying [18:50] there is a difference between sensible solutions and not so sensible ones [18:50] JontheEchidna! [18:50] apachelogger: indeed [18:50] oh hai [18:50] just read irclogs.ubuntu.com [18:51] <_Groo_> apachelogger: agreed, but for what i gather, Virt6.0 was a rewrite.. couldnt mantain backward data compatbilty, but i agree its a screw up [18:51] * _Groo_ greets JontheEchidna [18:51] _Groo_: you do not need to maintain backward compability [18:51] <_Groo_> JontheEchidna: just saying to apachelogger that im gonna fix the revu and ping you guys for sponsorsgip [18:51] <_Groo_> ship [18:51] you need to migrate the freakin data [18:51] apachelogger: I actually decided to lose all my nepomuk data, conversion results caused nepomuk to eat cpu and ram more than my heaviest system could handle [18:52] <_Groo_> Tm_T: same... it was "easy" to just loose and remake [18:52] <_Groo_> Tm_T: easier [18:52] now [18:52] so, imagine they decide to rewrite again for v7 or v8 [18:52] and this shouldn't happen, really [18:52] and again fail to provide migration [18:52] apachelogger: I don't need to imagine, I pretty much expect that to happen [18:53] * _Groo_ imagines popular uproar, forks, fires... ppl screaming.. groo rising from the ashes as a popular leader, taking kde mankind to the next step [18:53] people are bitching a lot about kaddressbook not showing data, now what if nepomuk actually looses data [18:54] <_Groo_> apachelogger: this is all very experimental, kde is pushing the envelope on what we can do with our data.. colateral damage is inavoidable [18:54] experimental? [18:55] this is a trial'n'error approach IMHO [18:55] _Groo_: doesn't mean things couldn't be done better, but I am not blaming trueg at all, he seems to be quite alone with this [18:55] we are at KDE 4.4 and the 3. data storage backend for nepomuk [18:55] first we had that slow beast of which I forgot the name, followed by the java thingy that ate all your ram, and now we have a somewhat decently fast thingy that fails to migrate data [18:56] nonfree java thingy that ate all your ram, nonetheless [18:56] righto [18:56] <_Groo_> sesame and redland [18:56] virtuoso still likes to nom on your RAM, but you can set the lower limit to 50 MB [18:56] <_Groo_> if my memory doenst fail me [18:57] <_Groo_> well semantic desktops are very cutting edge, no one else is doing this stuff like kde is... road bumps are expected [18:57] <_Groo_> i for one welcome our new semantic overlords [18:58] I've never seen anything with a GUI to set RAM usage before (or anything with the need for such a gui, actually) [18:59] <_Groo_> and anyway, theres always the call center approach to bitching [18:59] <_Groo_> JontheEchidna: its because in mac/windows they just eat up all your ram WIHTOUT asking :D [18:59] <_Groo_> JontheEchidna: they know better [19:00] it seems that it could just smartly schedule things based on the amount of free ram, without creating a whole gui for it [19:00] dude [19:00] it cant even migrate data :P [19:00] <_Groo_> JontheEchidna: logically true, but DBs dont work that way [19:00] well, it has a manual RAM limiter. It also has access to numbers on the amount of free ram [19:01] _Groo_: that has nothing to do with it being a db [19:02] JontheEchidna, nixternal_, apachelogger: how does 23:00 today suit to quiz NCommander? [19:02] UTC [19:02] Riddell: should work fine for me [19:02] rather latish for me [19:03] 22:00? [19:03] more like it [19:03] Riddell: I had a slight problem with KMail from 4.4: overall it worked great, but PGP support didn't work. then Paul Adams just gave me this advice: [19:04] ""Run gpg-agent --daemon, copy the result into a konsole and then launch !kontact from that konsole. Ping the packager to fix this." [19:04] if I do not fall asleep :D [19:04] is it a packaging issue? [19:04] doesn't really sound like a packaging issue at all [19:04] I couldn't tell... [19:04] it's just what Paul dented [19:05] http://identi.ca/notice/22213442 [19:05] that said, I did have KPGP running [19:05] and it normally works fine [19:05] KGPG [19:05] or whatever it's called [19:13] do I need to override a lintian warning like this: "W: mdic: extra-license-file usr/share/doc/mdic/COPYING.gz" ? [19:29] <_Groo_> guys how can i make sure nepomuk search is actually searching anything? according to search service, i have 8000+ files indexed (mostrly mp3s all tagged) and a few folders with odt and pdf, but a search results always shows empty in dolphin :( [19:37] neversfelde: you should not install that license file :P [19:37] unless it is necessary [19:37] which it hopefully is not [19:37] also I personally am against overriding lintian warnings altogether [19:38] apachelogger: I am not sure, why this file is installed [19:39] <_Groo_> guys, little bug, please open knotes and quit knotes.. it will crash.. it was fixed in latest kubuntu kde ubuntu3 but is broken in ubuntu4 again [19:39] Riddell: that time is good for me [19:42] _Groo_: bug 521011 [19:42] Launchpad bug 521011 in libdbusmenu-qt "Knotes crash on close" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/521011 === nixternal_ is now known as nixternal [19:44] concenring kubuntu lucid on netbooks. the following line was missing in the kwinrc file: [19:44] BorderlessMaximizedWindows=true [19:45] I AM BORED!!! [19:47] neversfelde: It should not be installed. The lintian warning is correct. [19:47] nixternal: GOOD LORD! [19:47] nixternal: THIS CANNOT STAND! [19:47] nixternal: chop chop! [19:47] apachelogger, ScottK: thanks, I'll have a look at it [19:47] make some coffee for Shuttleworth [19:50] i would rather swallow gasoline and a lit match [19:52] I'd pay to see that. [19:52] thanks :p [19:52] * _Groo_ raises hand.. ill buy the popcorn is nixtenral sets himself on fire :D [19:53] <_Groo_> if nixternal* [19:53] You should feel good. I've got about zero time for Kubuntu development right now, but I still have time to abuse you. [19:53] You're a high priority. [19:54] haha, ass [19:57] hm [19:57] nixternal on fire [19:57] no no! I do not like that! [19:58] we must also love the windows users [19:58] they cant help being what they are :/ [19:58] I should go back to Windows [19:58] seeing as I interviewed yesterday with microsoft :D [19:58] you did? [19:58] cool [19:59] * apachelogger always wanted to work at microsoft's [19:59] yeah, my buddy, and someone in this channel, pushed me :p [19:59] until I got to meet MS austria's academic evangelist [19:59] he freaked me out quite a bit [20:00] it was a phone interview, but it went well...it will be working with Open Source, but from the way it sounds, they have a ton of people they are interviewing [20:00] <_Groo_> guys how do i reset the entire strigi/nepomuk data? [20:01] <_Groo_> i remove .kde/share/nepomuk , anything else? [20:01] actually said they are interviewing people who have a lot of "community" experience [20:02] nixternal: you do have that with your loco work and all, dont you? [20:02] i would have thought so, but from the way it sounds, they either want someone with more community experience [20:03] don't know how much more community experience one can have...all it takes is being friendly...isn't like it is a damn skill or anything [20:03] jono makes it sound like a science [20:03] :D [20:03] always impressed by how important one can make "being friendly" sound like :P [20:05] oh, on a related topic is opportunistic a new fancy word to use instead of python? [20:05] yeah [20:05] hahaha [20:06] "people who crap out python scripts and call them apps" :P [20:06] opportunistic is a bit deeper than python [20:06] Ironically I'm in the middle of crapping out a Python script. [20:06] though you wouldn't think so, seeing as all of the so-called opportunistic apps we have seen have been written with python [20:07] I am learning Mono/C#/.NET [20:07] so, I am in the middle of crapping out my life [20:07] lulz [20:08] ScottK: you must be an opportunistic developer :P [20:08] nixternal: how much deeper than python? [20:08] apachelogger: think Apps Store or such for iPhones [20:08] nixternal: I recon python is already very deep shit [20:08] omg! [20:08] app store for linux [20:08] all of those really shitty apps, well opportunistic programming makes all those shitty apps, easily available for Ubuntu [20:08] oh, we have that already [20:08] software center or what is it called now [20:09] yeah, but I guess people need more opportunity [20:09] ah [20:09] JontheEchidna: When there is an opportunity to be paid for it, yes. [20:09] AH [20:09] I think I get the concept now [20:10] yeah, seeing as I don't get paid for Linux, it isn't opportunistic enough [20:10] I have 2 hobbies that are fairly big...cycling and linux/floss stuff [20:10] right now, cycling > linux/floss stuff...I am not burning out, I am just getting bored [20:10] create buzz about how you will create a shitty app by calling yourself opportunistic programmer => create shitty app => sell it via ubuntu => excuse the shittyness with it being opportunisticly programmed => create more shitty apps to sell via ubuntu [20:11] documentation and packaging is cool and what not, but I have done it for so long, that I need to find something new to do [20:11] that might become a whole new business opportunity [20:11] nixternal: you could become artist [20:12] it hasn't yet, and seeing that I need a business oppoturnity really soon, I need to start doing something else [20:12] people who are burned out often take art classes I have been told [20:12] I suck at art now [20:12] I am not burned out, I am bored [20:12] that is why you take an art class first [20:12] so you learn art [20:13] nixternal: you could buzz the opportunistic business model [20:13] become the guru of OBM [20:13] then write a book about it [20:13] create the fanceh icons for opportunistic apps :D [20:14] haha [20:14] but in each one hide a transparent turd outline [20:14] kind of like someone did with GTD [20:14] hm [20:14] opportunistic icons! [20:14] I should make up some fake ass thing like that, write a book [20:14] consisting only of lines [20:14] just imagine the possibilities [20:15] thin lines, thick lines, colored lines, no lines, straight lines.... [20:15] that alone would be worth a book [20:15] Let me push a, dare I say, exciting idea: dotted lines [20:15] An opportunistic artist's guide to icon design with inkscape [20:16] Oo [20:16] JontheEchidna: dont be silly [20:16] although, maybe it could work, if you wrap it in some more traditional lines [20:16] innovative opportunistic artowkr :P [20:16] you knwo how people are about revolution in the field of art [20:17] they hate it, until you opportunistically die :D [20:17] then they take that opportunity to sell your crap for too much money [20:17] very much so [20:17] Innovative Diabolic Intelligent Opportunistic Technology [20:17] IDIOT [20:17] haha [20:18] there we go [20:18] <3 [20:18] * nixternal starts writing [20:18] go nixternal go! [20:18] Innovative opportunistic buzzword business model [20:18] isn't that "Cloud Computing"? [20:18] * apachelogger agrees [20:19] http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2009/3/25/ [20:20] hahaha [20:21] sweet baby jesus [20:22] so how can we synergize today? [20:35] am i imagining things or is the performance on an encrypted harddrive really bad? [20:36] well, there is an unavoidable decription/encryption overhead [20:37] unless it is hardware encrypted, though even then there is an overhead I have been told...depends on the model as well I suppose [20:41] I am using openSUSE, and the encryption performance is fine, when I was using it on Kubuntu it was fine there as well, though I have heard of people having performance issues [20:42] I never had a problem with encryption performance when using Kubuntu [20:49] apachelogger: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/KubuntuPPAs work in progress === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [21:33] oy ppa confusion remains :( [21:34] kubuntu-backports, beta-backports are pretty easy to describe [21:34] what about kubuntu-updates and -experimental? [21:35] can I more or less ignore their use in the wiki page? [21:36] and focus only on the first 2? [21:36] claydoh: kubuntu-updates contains the maintenance releases [21:36] like 4.3.5 [21:36] before they go to the real backports [21:36] ok [21:37] then -backports is for major release, aka 4.4 [21:37] which won't make it to real backports [21:37] and -beta is, well, for beta :) [21:38] I think I gots it, and might even be able to explain it :) [21:39] claydoh: mhh, I think 4.4 can go to backports, too although it is in the backports ppa, so this is not a criterion [21:39] "Updates for Kubuntu releases which are due to go to Ubuntu Updates. Mostly KDE point releases." [21:39] neversfelde: iirc the qt update would keep it out of there, someone mentioned that to me [21:40] claydoh: yes, it did not happen for Karmic and Lucid [21:40] 'point releases' is what I am explaining :) [21:40] but afair it happended for Jaunty [21:42] well it is still explainable === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [21:55] Riddell: could you remove and blacklist the knetworkmanager source package? It's popped back up [21:57] (the old kde3 package) [21:59] can do [21:59] NCommander: about? [22:09] JontheEchidna: hmm, or maybe i can't [22:11] Current live image of Lucid can't install; Ubiquity throws a python fit. Known issue? (AttributeError: 'PartMan' object has no attribute 'allow_change_step') [22:12] Zorael: yes, shtylman said he'd be fixing it this evening === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [22:18] Zorael: indeed... will be taking a look at these issues tonight. Alot of my code was recently merged with some major installer changes ... so breakage expected [22:18] Riddell, shtylman: All right, thanks [22:27] JontheEchidna, nixternal, ScottK, apachelogger: anyone about to quiz NCommander [22:27] ? [22:27] For? [22:27] kubuntu-dev [22:28] Sorry, I've been very focused on $WORK lately and lost track. [22:28] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MichaelCasadevall/KubuntuDevApplication [22:28] Is it time for the meeting? [22:29] that was the plan, JontheEchidna and apachelogger said they'd be around [22:29] and NCommander just showed up, at least in my /msg [22:29] * JontheEchidna is around [22:29] * ScottK is sort of around. [22:29] three of us is good [22:29] No Tonio [22:29] NCommander: want to say why you want to be a kubuntu-dev? [22:29] nixternal: around? [22:32] Riddell: I guess not. [22:33] mm, I'm sure he's just busy fixing kdebindings on ARM or something [22:33] I'll take that for an excuse. [22:36] i am here [22:38] Riddell: sorry, I'm back. [22:38] yay! [22:38] * NCommander was an hour off on his UTC conversion [22:39] NCommander: still want to be in kubuntu-dev? [22:39] Yeah [22:39] groovy, why's that? [22:39] To help keep Kubuntu an dKubuntu netbook working on ARM mostly [22:40] very noble [22:40] And to help upload and update the packages to newest upstreams as they are mor eavailable [22:40] and to help keep Debian and Ubuntu patches in sync [22:40] NCommander: Feature Freeze is happing this week, what does that mean for uploading newest versions? [22:41] Riddell: bug fix releases only can be uploaded without approval; for releases with new features, ubuntu-release or a delegated representative has to approve on a case-by-case basis [22:42] NCommander: How's it going with getting arm stuff upstreamed to KDE? [22:42] ScottK: all the major patches should be upstreamed and should build out of the box, although I admit I haven't built SVN from source in some time on ARM [22:43] nixternal: Since you're bored, ask something hard. [22:43] don't need to, I know his technical capabilities [22:43] he's packaged with the ninjas plenty of times, +1 here too [22:44] NCommander: do you know the answer to the last question on http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.pyqt-pykde/18505 ? [22:44] Riddell: it makes sure python-qt4 properly supports floats for QLists and QVectors versus qreal which is required on ARM [22:45] Riddell: on ARM, qreal == float versus double, and this requires some special handling w.r.t. to upcasting and such in structs. [22:46] gotta go, but +1 for NCommander in general [22:46] NCommander: when we upload packages should we be taking into consideration the heavy use of the ARM buildds? [22:46] e.g. on Qt or KDE SC uploads [22:47] Riddell: Yes, just as we do i386/amd64, and especially during freezes when the release team may need priority on the buildds [22:49] NCommander: which is better, KDE or Gnome? [22:49] GNOME!!!! [22:49] Riddell: KDE of course ;-) [22:50] NCommander: ooh, don't let them hear you say that in #ubuntu-desktop :) [22:50] oh, you didn't specify "Better at sucking" [22:50] sorry [22:50] groovy, I think I'm done, +1 from me for being very competant and useful [22:50] +1 [22:50] ScottK? [22:50] he fell asleep on his walker [22:50] +1 from me too [22:51] Sorry. Multitasking. [22:51] Unlike nixternal, I got stuff to do. [22:51] yeah, I have 0 to do professionally right now [22:51] harsh [22:51] total downtime, no money, hating life [22:51] great, welcome in NCommander, thanks for taking the grilling [22:51] nixternal: Sounds like you're about ready for the Army. [22:51] to old [22:51] haha [22:52] NCommander: whats your launchpad ID? [22:52] Riddell: mcasadevall [22:52] yay, now I have the power to upload stuff! [22:52] added [22:53] congratulations NCommander [22:53] use it wisely [22:53] * NCommander promptly uploads World Domination Virus 0.1 to the archive :-) [22:53] and remember you uploads are still quite limited, kubuntu stuff only, and that doesn't include kde4libs or qt [22:54] Riddell: ? [22:54] Riddell: those packages were on the ACL when I checked. [22:54] hmm, I forget the magic runes for the ACL but JontheEchidna has been disappointed in his restrictions [22:55] * NCommander looks [22:58] Riddell: that seems a strange oversight, I can upload OOo for instance [22:58] mhh, two new upstream releases of kfritz today, because I complained :) [22:58] yes, it's weird [22:58] Riddell: who controlled this list? [22:58] that's what I call a good connection to upstream [22:58] NCommander: it's done automatically using colin's setup [22:58] neversfelde: nice [22:59] NCommander: We've asked and it's on purpose the way it is. [22:59] * ScottK gives JontheEchidna a kick about his core-dev application. [22:59] * NCommander is amazed I can upload OOo, but not Qt ... [22:59] I cannot upload my package to revu, because it is not officially released, but would someone have a look at it. I do not want to dissapoint upstream by missing the ff [22:59] http://people.ubuntu.com/~neversfelde/ [23:00] neversfelde: sure [23:02] http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/KFritz?content=120190 <- you sure it isn't officially released? [23:02] ooh a package using libindicate-qt-dev, agateau will be pleased [23:02] yep :) [23:03] nixternal: yes, it is 0.0.3, 0.0.2 linked against libssl-dev [23:04] they changed it [23:05] nixternal: I can understand you feelings, cause I am unemployed at the moment, too. I am sure better times will come :) [23:07] they better come soon [23:08] yes [23:08] * ScottK avoids the temptation to engage in political discourse. [23:09] neversfelde: packaging all looks good [23:10] when I start the app nothing much happens [23:10] politics aren't helping, but what people are looking for I am not skilled in...everything here in Chicago is C++ for Stockbroakers, or Ruby for yet another stupid get your groceries website [23:10] Riddell: cool, do you have a Fritz!Box? [23:10] nope [23:10] seriously been thinking about changing my profession [23:11] Riddell: so, you cannot use it then :) [23:13] I'll upload it to REVU once it is released. It is really cool software for fritz!box users, which should be 50% of DSL customers here in germany [23:18] nixternal: I can destract you, you could write an endorsement for me https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ChristianMangold/MOTUDeveloperApplication [23:18] you reviewed my minitube package, so you should know parts of my work :) [23:29] ScottK: core-dev app sent to devel-permissions [23:30] JontheEchidna: Excellent. Please let me know when the meeting is. [23:30] ScottK: k. I'm hoping to get on next week's meeting [23:30] we'll see, though [23:32] Riddell: is 4.4.1 gonna be in lucid? [23:35] shtylman: probably 4.4.2 will be [23:35] ooo cool [23:35] got a fix you want in? [23:35] heh yea [23:35] I backported something into the 4.4 branch [23:36] little stuff [23:36] but I was just curious [23:38] Riddell: got some time to do a handful of removals/syncs? [23:39] https://bugs.launchpad.net/~echidnaman/+reportedbugs?field.searchtext=removal+||+sync [23:40] JontheEchidna: is ~ubuntu-archive subscribed? [23:40] I'm doing those bugs now [23:40] Riddell: yeah, should be [23:41] I'll get to them shortly then, if I don't collapse from jetlag [23:41] oh, Tuesday is your archive admin day, isn't it? [23:41] Riddell: libksquirrel accidentally wasn't, I just added it [23:42] thanks, btw [23:42] hrm, kfocus isn't building without aRts either... [23:45] Riddell: did you subscribe me to that bug you pointed out this morning? [23:46] shtylman: no but it's on ubiquity, I thought you subscribed to ubiquity bugs [23:46] yea [23:46] I do [23:46] if I could remember what it was called :p [23:47] I get lots of bug emails ... [23:47] Riddell: found it :) [23:48] I don't get auto subscribed [23:48] I just get emails [23:48] so it makes it a bit hard to actually track down the bugs I am interested in [23:48] if I havn't been subscribed
