Riddellis that a hint?00:19
JontheEchidnamaybe :)00:19
JontheEchidnaoh, I have a few more archive-adminly things that need gettin' done if you're up to it00:20
JontheEchidnaI'll give you a chance to run for the hills now, though. ;-)00:20
Riddellwhat are they?00:20
JontheEchidnabug 528023, bug 524955 and bug 52495700:20

JontheEchidnawe can also demote kde3 kdelibs to universe after koffice-l10n bites the dust :)00:22
Riddell524955 has a question on it00:23
JontheEchidnaoh, I thought I had posted a reply to that00:23
neversfeldeRiddell: I renamed kdebluetooth now, do we need a feature freeze exception for this change?00:23
Riddellneversfelde: no00:24
JontheEchidnaRiddell: dantti didn't really have a change, dholbach just read the change to debian/copyright as a change on our end00:24
neversfeldeRiddell: k, I will attach it to the bug report tomorrow.00:24
Riddellthere are koffice-l10n tars for 2.1.100:25
Riddellbut separate for each language00:25
JontheEchidnadang00:25
Riddellnot sure what the best way to package those is00:26
JontheEchidnawhere're they hiding them?00:26
Riddellon ktown00:26
JontheEchidnahrm, would be nice if they gave a link on their website00:26
JontheEchidnawe could make a hulking monolith like debian does with kde-l10n00:26
JontheEchidnamaybe since koffice is smaller it wouldn't be so bad?00:27
RiddellI'm included to keep them all separate00:28
Riddellseparate binaries too00:28
Riddelland have language-support-xx recommend them00:28
JontheEchidnayeah, I'd never have a monolithic binary package for that00:28
JontheEchidnawhat would have to be done to set things up so that they could be handled with our current l10n packaging scripts (or tweaked variants of our scripts)?00:30
Riddellwhat scripts?00:33
JontheEchidnathe ones used to update the kde l10n packages each release00:35
Riddellrumours of such scripts are much exaggerated00:35
JontheEchidnaouch :(00:36
Riddellthere's not much that needs to be scripted, it's just a case of running dch for each package using a bash for loop00:37
Riddelldoing the debuild -S (and debuild if you're doing it properly which takes hours) and uploading is the time sync00:38
Riddellthat's those three bugs done anyway00:42

maco2hmm these .sip files for kdebindings are hard to read03:53
nixternalthey didn't seem hard for me to read, but they hard as hell for me to create...then I found out about the script sime uses to create them...grrr, I wasted a few hours on that one night03:58
maco2heh03:59
maco2well im looking at it going "it SAYS namespace Phonon.... so why's the resulting thing have the wrong string for .__class__.__name__ ???"03:59
nixternaloh, you really want to dive into python04:00
nixternalwhat is it giving you?04:00
maco2PyKDE4.phonon.MediaSource instead of PyKDE4.phonon.Phonon.MediaSource04:00
maco2im looking at kdebindings/python/pykde4/sip/phonon/mediasource.sip04:01
* nixternal tries to think of the word to use to describe why...04:02
nixternalummm...shoot, what is the word I am looking for04:02
nixternalbecause...ummm04:02
nixternallol04:02
maco2"because it's broken"?04:02
nixternalno no04:02
maco2PyQt4.phonon.Phonon.MediaSource does it right04:02
nixternalhow are you importing phonon?04:05
nixternalI can't reproduce it with bpython04:05
nixternalfrom PyKDE4.phonon import *04:05
maco2thats what i'm using04:05
nixternalhrmm04:05
nixternal>>> from PyKDE4.phonon import *04:05
nixternal>>> foo = Phonon.MediaSource()04:05
nixternal>>> foo.__class__.__name__04:05
nixternal'MediaSource'04:05
maco2which is wrong04:06
maco2it should say Phonon.MediaSource04:06
nixternalMediaSource is the class name though04:06
maco2but if you try to use a VideoPlayer with .play(foo) it'll tell you it expected a Phonon.MediaSource and instead received a MediaSource04:06
nixternal>>> foo.__class__04:07
nixternal<class 'PyKDE4.phonon.MediaSource'>04:07
maco2see?04:07
nixternalI see what you are saying04:07
maco2it's missing a capital-P Phonon04:07
maco2ooh or...04:10
maco2this could be a qt designer v. python issue04:11
maco2qt designer might be putting in the PyQt4 version of phonon not the pykde4 one...04:11
nixternalahh, that might explain some funkiness here04:12
maco2hmm so .ui doesnt specify whether to use the pyqt4 or pykde4 versions of stuff04:12
maco2so in there it just says Phonon::VideoPlayer04:12
nixternalright, and that is the Qt Phonon stuff, not the KDE Phonon stuff04:13
maco2the .py generated by pykdeuic4 imports PyQt4 but of PyKDE4 it ony imports kdeui and kdecore04:13
maco2so maybe its actually that pykdeuic4 ought to pick PyKDE4.phonon if it encounters phonon stuff?04:14
* maco2 boggles04:15
maco2the .py generated includes 2 import statements *at the end*04:15
maco2why would it do that?04:15
nixternalno idea, I don't use any of the *uic* tools04:16
nixternalwith linuxtoday, reddit, and digg....I have served over 1,000,000 unique hits in less than a week...pretty good, and my server never tanked, and I made a whopping...wait for it...wait for it...$16 from adsense!04:17
nixternalclick damnit click!04:17
maco2hehe04:18
maco2ok i see whats happening04:19
maco2if i play with the generated .py04:19
maco2i have to remove "from PyQt4 import phonon" from the end of the file and add "from PyKDE4 import phonon" to the beginning of the file04:19
nixternalor the more correct way, 'from PyKDE4.phonon import *'04:22
nixternalgotta follow PEP804:22
maco2ok or that04:24
nixternali just finished watching a thing on tv about software patents...it is ridiculous what is patented...now I can't remember the channel I watched it on, nor the link of really crazy software patents04:29
nixternaland facebook today patented some news feed stuff...it is just getting out of hand04:29
nixternalaccording to this show, Microsoft is sued on average, 5 times a day for patent infringement...and the other big one was...damn, I can't remember now04:30
nixternalthat's what I get for messing with python while trying to watch that :p04:30
* nixternal blames maco2 04:30
ScottKApple just won a big Patent suit in Texas.04:31
ScottKI read about it on Groklaw earlier in the week.04:31
nixternaldoes apple have a lot of software patents for their stuff? they didn't say a thing about apple on this show04:31
ScottKThey were getting sued for violating someone else's patent.04:32
nixternaltexas is where everyone sues for patents, easiest place to win04:32
ScottKYep04:32
nixternalmy dad was sued back in the 80s for his patents...he told the court in texas to kiss his ass04:32
ScottKI gather Apple has a pretty strict policy of not settling out of court except in a few rare cases where they agree they goofed.04:32
nixternalhe still isn't out of prison :p just kidding...but he never had to go to court, and ended up winning because he was backed by panasonic who ended up purchasing some of his patents04:33
nixternalthen recently, he was contacted by someone about someone supposedly violating his patents, so my dad called him...told the guy, hey that has been patented by me for almost 30 years...the guy on the other end got nervous and asked what he should do, and my dad said, well I think you at least owe me a beer :)04:34
nixternalhe has like 30 patents, and I couldn't tell you what any of them even do...that deep electronics stuff makes absolutely no sense to me04:35
DarkwingDuck*sigh*04:39
DarkwingDuckRemind me again why I handed out all of my Kubuntu CDs at SCALE?04:40
ScottKBecause you want Lucid, not Karmic and you didn't have any Lucid CDs.04:41
DarkwingDuckLOL04:42
DarkwingDuckI want something stabler to start with on my X4104:43
nixternallucid is pretty good right now actually04:43
nixternalone week without a single hiccup04:43
nixternalI am probably going to reformat/reinstall with lucid this weekend on this laptop04:44
DarkwingDuckeven netbook?04:44
nixternalScottK: is knr dirt slow on your dell mini?04:44
nixternalmyself and another guy who was running opensuse with plasma-netbook the other night, both commented on how slow the netbook stuff was on our netbooks04:45
nixternalwondering if my netbook has a fault somewhere, or is it really that darn slow04:45
nixternalanyways, bbiaf, gonna go enjoy some ice cream...i fried the roof of my mouth on pizza04:45
DarkwingDuckKNR will runnin a full 1024x76804:47
DarkwingDuckright?04:47
DarkwingDuckthis way I can test the wacom interface with it being a tablet04:48
DarkwingDuckAnyone have the Lucid KNR daily (Or a couple days ago) on a fater server? I'm only able to pull 60kbps down off the server.04:50
DarkwingDuck*faster04:52
daskreechIs the Lucid ISOs burnable/bootable05:03
DarkwingDuckDaily builds have been for me since pre-alpha05:04

DarkwingDuckgod I hate bogged servers05:13
ScottKnixternal: How much RAM?05:47
ScottKIt seems to be right on the edge of digging itself into swap with 1GB.05:47
ScottKI've got an SSD, so I don't notice so much.05:47
ScottKnixternal: For your OpportunistiK session, you might show how to develop something quick and easy on Kubuntu with PyKDE and then show how to deploy it on Windows, Mac, and Linux.05:48
nixternal1GB06:06
ScottKSSD or hard drive?06:06
nixternalScottK: I don't even know where to begin on deploying shit on Mac let alone Windows anymore06:06
nixternal160gb hd06:06
ScottKSSD makes a huge difference in Netbook performance.06:07
ScottKOK, it was a thought.06:07
nixternala good thought though...one that I just might look into to be honest06:07
nixternalright now, the only feedback I got was create a simple podcatcher with the rss plasma engine and phonon06:08
nixternali was thinking get rid of the plasma part, and do a simple podcatcher...very simple podcatcher that someone could expand on06:08
nixternalScottK: damn, that windows mac linux thing is about as opportunistic as one can get06:08
nixternalf'n bingo dude06:09
ScottKI think one of the keys to catching real opportunistic programmers is to show it's easy to solve real problems they've got at work, quickly and easily.06:09
ScottKNot being just for Linux is a big part of that.06:09
nixternalright...i didn't look our that far...that is a really awesome idea06:09
ScottKDon't think in terms of stuff we'd want in the distro, think in terms of getting your idiot boss to stop screaming at you.06:10
nixternali wonder how you would deploy with python and pykde4 on windows and mac...06:10
ScottKDunno.06:10
nixternali know people who will though, Python Chicago here I come! :)06:10
ScottKI'd suggest focus on Windows and just mention it's for Mac too.06:10
nixternalyeah, especially since I don't have a way to test on a mac06:10
markeyapachelogger: someone, you have a very confusing way of writing blogs ;)06:22
markeyI don't really understand what you are saying there06:22
markeyit's full of mythical allusions and inside jokes, I guess06:22
markey"Opportunistic opportunity"06:22
markeywhat is that? :)06:22
markeys/someone/somehow06:22
nixternalScottK: ahh, PyKDE !work with Windows (yet?)06:23
markeyI read it twice, but I still don't get it :p06:23
ScottKAh, crap.06:23
markeyThe idea is that opportunistic programmers ares doing normal application development like most people think of it.  It's small, one off, scripts or small apps to solve local needs.""06:24
markeylolwut06:24
nixternalhehe06:25
markeycan't you just write: "I have idea A. It works like this: B. Thank you for reading."06:25
markeythat would make it easier to parse06:25
nixternal"Isn't this obvious. A quickly template for Pyside?" WTF? That is the only comment for my opportunistiK call....tom are you in here?06:25
daskreechnixternal: Ruby Chicago?06:27
hanthanai would like to localize kubuntu, i have done kde essentials for my language and also continuing the rest of localizing the apps06:28
nixternalRuby is as opportunistic as a bullet hole in the head06:30
nixternalI have been to a few of the Chicago Ruby mixes...cool getting to hang out with the big wigs in the Ruby and Rails communities06:30
daskreechThat's an oppurtunity for bullet and casket makers06:31
nixternalhttp://blog.nixternal.com/2010.02.25/opportunistik-needs-help/comment-page-1/#comment-564706:35
nixternaland that's my answer, or that's my story and I'm stickin' with it06:35
daskreechnixternal: want to point hanthana to docs? :)06:36
valoriehi folks, synaptic reports that kdelibs-dbg is broken06:36
valorieit wants to put in qt-x11-free-dbg instead06:36
valoriedoes that sound right?06:36
valoriethe Amarok devs didn't know06:36
nixternalhanthana: in the next couple of weeks, the docs for kubuntu will be made available on launchpad for localizing06:37
valorieand that's why I installed kdelibs-dbg in the first place06:37
valorieto help debug amarok06:37
hanthananixternal: daskreech: dude, we are ready to support. but there is no one supporting06:37
nixternalI think that might already be known as I saw someone talking about that either earlier or yesterday valorie06:37
daskreechSupport the Support of the support!06:38
valorieshould I allow synaptic to do it?06:38
nixternalwhat do you mean hanthana that there is no one supporting?06:38
hanthanai meant giving required info to contributors06:38
nixternalit doesn't sound right to me06:38
valoriesynaptic reports a broken package06:39
hanthana4hrs searching but still no luck06:39
nixternalhanthana: string freeze is March 25th I believe...until we have a package with the new kubuntu-docs uploaded, there is nothing to translate06:39
valorieperhaps I should try adept or something and see what It says06:39
nixternalwe are reworking the docs....that's why there is nothing yet...we did a complete rewrite06:39
hanthananixternal: where is the po file for kubuntu installer06:39
hanthanaand what are the essential desktop apps for kubuntu06:40
markeynixternal: really, I'd rethink the naming. it's your call, but "OpportunistiK" is far out.. ;)06:40
markeyit sounds both weird and strange, in a weird way06:40
markeythat makes no sense at all06:40
nixternalhehe, I had to have a bit of fun so apachelogger couldn't grep planet.ubuntu.com for opportunistic and raise his numbers06:40
markeythat blog, I guess only Kubuntu insiders would understand it06:41
nixternalhttps://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/ubiquity  <- hanthana, there is the ubiquity installer if that is what you were referring to06:42
nixternalthe essential desktop apps for kubuntu are translated upstream, unless of course that changed, as I do not closely follow translation stuff... dpm would know more about translation stuff than I would for sure06:43
hanthananixternal: i am a fedora user not familiar with Ubuntu packages, but i have localized the Debian installer06:43

dpmhanthana, you can also ask translations questions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Contact#UbuntuTranslators (both for Ubuntu and Kubuntu)06:44
hanthananothing going back to upstream06:44

nixternalI think that will work06:48
nixternaloh, I was gonna say, mine had to make sense, I poked fun at Harald and asked what kind of app I should write for my presentation :)06:48
DWonderlyI'll say this... KNE looks good on tablets06:48
markeynixternal: yeah, yours is easier to understand ;)06:48
nixternalI just saw your buzz06:48

DarkwingDuckarresting gear and field support06:56
nixternaldamn, you should have tried for Pax River instead06:57
dpmhanthana, please, be patient, people are not there 24/7. It's 07:54 am in Europe, for example, and most people are just starting the day. Furthermore, you haven't posted a question there, only what you are doing. What is the actual question? How can we help you?06:57
nixternalthey have all the bad ass squadrons there06:57
DarkwingDuckoh yeah... VT-3 and VT-506:57
dpmhanthana, if there are no answers on IRC, you cal always use the mailing list06:57

DarkwingDuckalso, we are the backup home of the Blue Angels06:57
nixternalI used to party hard with the VT wings06:57

DarkwingDuckIm actually looking forward to it06:58
nixternaland it was a blast breaking into the marine corps barracks and stealing their ugly bull dog06:58
DarkwingDuckhehehe06:59
DarkwingDuckSounds like the fun I had with the Army nerds at Goodfellow AFB06:59
nixternalhttp://www.navair.navy.mil/  <- DarkwingDuck that's where you want to be as a brown shoe....that's where pre-astronauts train for nasa...that was my last duty station, and it made me wish I was a brown shoe because of all the awesome toys and testing07:00
DarkwingDuckI almost landed Key West but, they didn't want to spend the $$ to send me to south Florida07:00
nixternalI was there when they were crashing all of the ospreys07:00
DarkwingDucklol07:00
DarkwingDuckits a good spot07:00
nixternali hated living in that area though, and that was probably due to my ex-wife..under different circumstances I think I could live there07:01
DarkwingDuckMeridian is about an hour and a half from the wifes family07:02
DarkwingDuckSo, she is MORE then happy07:02
nixternaloh lord, don't say I didn't warn you...unless of course you get along with your inlaws07:02
DarkwingDuckI actually do LOL07:03
DarkwingDuckKinda strange07:03
DarkwingDuckMy father in law is happy that he thinks he will have a hunting buddy LOL07:03
nixternalso, I went up to great mistakes this week...let me just say, after seeing the new uniforms, I am glad I am not in the navy anymore07:04
DarkwingDuckLOL They arn't actually THAT bad. Actually kinda comfy. I'm NOT happy about giving E-1 - E-6 kahki shirts though07:05
nixternalno, they are stupid looking07:06
nixternalyeah, that would piss me off...here I busted my ass to be a kahki, and now e-1 through e-6 have them...piss off :)07:06
DarkwingDuckOh I know07:07

nixternalcoast guard + army + smurfs == new navy uniforms07:07
DarkwingDuckJungle Smurfs07:08

allee-manyone working already on it: karmic 4.3 -> 4.4: a) existing use with nepomuk data:  akonadi does not start.   b) New user: akonadi starts buts warns: nepomuk could not be enabled.  Nepomuk errmsg:  There is no configuration file .ini10:50
Riddellnepomuk will need virtuosoconverter10:52
RiddellI haven't put that in main though10:52
allee-mRiddell: virtuosoconverter was installed and sucessful.   But a new created user should not need converter.  So deeper problem is:   the no .ini file I get for the freshly created user10:54

apacheloggerRiddell: that is getting more and more confusing ^^11:05
Riddellapachelogger: I think trueg doesn't want to support virtuosoconverter officially because there was never a stable KDE release using virtuoso 5 and it's a bit hackey (contains a full copy of virtuoso5 sources)11:06
