kklimondawhere should I report new theme breaking something visually?03:02
kklimondarhythmbox uses GeditMessageArea in few places which just uses tooltip's background color and result is.. well, bad: http://syntaxhighlighted.com/~kklimonda/bad-background.png03:03
Linux000kklimonda: that would be a regression, all you do is report it on launchpad with "regression ..." in the title03:15
yofeland tag it with regression-potential if it's in lucid03:16
kklimondalight-themes or rhythmbox ?03:17
Linux000hmm... light-themes I would think, rythmbox just uses the colors03:19
kklimondaLinux000: but it uses a custom widget to do that03:23
kklimondaI'm probably going to report it against both light-themes and rhythmbox03:23
Linux000That would work03:24
kklimondahggdh: if you are around what do you think about bug 535490 ?03:25
ubot4Launchpad bug 535490 in light-themes (Ubuntu) "some dialogs in rhythmbox use tooltip's background color and are unreadable (affects: 1)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53549003:25
kklimondahggdh: should I add rhythmbox task or is it a rhythmbox issue and should not be reported against light-themes?03:26
rschrollI've been working on bug #486154 off and on for the past few months.  I've isolated a problem, written a patch, submitted it upstream, created a branch, and requested a merge, but so far no one has even stopped by to give it an importance.  What can I do to attract attention from the appropriate people?03:55
ubot4Launchpad bug 486154 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) (and 3 other projects) "System beep broken in Karmic despite heroic efforts to fix it (affects: 6) (dups: 1)" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/48615403:55
crimsunrschroll: it needs to be merged upstream first04:18
rschrollcrimsun: I've submitted a bug and patch upstream, but they're ignoring me too: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=607906  Any suggestions?04:22
ubot4Gnome bug 607906 in general "Metacity should not handle sounds for system bell events" [Normal,Unconfirmed]04:22
crimsunrschroll: ask politely? At this point there isn't much that we can do aside from poking them.04:24
crimsunI've set an importance, but it's up to the Desktop team to ultimately triage it further04:25
rschrollThanks for the help.  In part I was worried that, with the importance not set, it was being overlooked by those who could do something about it.04:28
rschrollIs it worth opening another bug about metacity and compiz using different systems to ring the system bell, or will that just annoy people?04:30
crimsunthat's entirely your call04:35
rschrollThanks again.04:36

ttxpedro_: hugday current returns 20100311 ?12:31
pedro_ttx, oh right, i guess it's because the hugday tool looks for the latest page created sorted by date12:33
pedro_we might use something like ' hugday close 1111 --date 20100310'12:34

pedro_ttx, cool! thanks12:50
pedro_thekorn, hello! seems that the hugday --day nor date option are working , may you please have a look?12:51
thekornpedro_, yup, getting the source ....12:53
pedro_thekorn, you rock!12:53
yofelnote: you can just set the right date in ~/.hugday_config12:57
pedro_yofel, yup i'm using that as a workaround12:58
thekornpedro_, what's exactly wrong with it,  hugday list --day 20100310   works here12:59
pedro_thekorn, that works ok, but try to close a bug on let say https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/2008020712:59
pedro_it returns: ValueError: One or more bugs can't be found: 17877313:00
thekornhm, ok, but for this I have to get    hugday init   working with my cookie.sql first13:01
thekornok, it fails when ff is open13:04
pedro_yofel, i've added the workaround to the hug day page13:06
yofelgood ideah13:06
yofel-h13:06
thekornpedro_,   hugday close 217787 --day 20100310   worked fine for me, the other bugday you mentioned as an example just did not work because it is using https://launchpad.net/bugs/ID as a format for bug urls,13:17
thekornbut hugday requires  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/ID    , so just bad luck13:17
pedro_thekorn, aha! right it works fine if testing it with 20100211 instead, will update the wiki page again. Thank you!13:20
thekornpedro_, I've just added a comment to the wiki page, feel free to edit this again if it makes no sense ;)13:23

zeroseven0183Anyone here using Gwibber and working with bugs?13:32
* zeroseven0183 is looking for someone to ask about Gwibber bugs. (private message)13:32
pedro_zeroseven0183, just ask here in the channel13:33
zeroseven0183Alright. Comment #8 notes that there's already a fix for bug #44498813:35
ubot4Launchpad bug 444988 in gwibber (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "PPA installation instructions mention karmic even if there are no karmic packages available (affects: 7) (dups: 1)" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/44498813:35
zeroseven0183It's about Gwibber, PPA installation13:35
zeroseven0183Now, how do I apply the corrections/fix?13:35
thekornzeroseven0183, this bug is unrelated to gwibber itself13:37
thekornand it has no effect on gwibber13:38
thekornit is a bug in the PPA service13:38
thekornwhich has been fixed13:38
zeroseven0183Yeah, but how do I correct it on my machine?13:38
yofelzeroseven0183: you mean? you have the karmic ppa added and it gives you error messages when updating, or...?13:40
zeroseven0183Yes, exactly yofel13:40
yofelzeroseven0183: open the software sources app and disable the gwibber ppa in the other software tab13:42
yofelzeroseven0183: or rather just remove it13:42
zeroseven0183hmmmm....13:43
zeroseven0183I already thought of removing that13:43
zeroseven0183But I won't be getting any updates13:44
thekorndoesn't matter, the version in karmic is new anyway13:44
thekornso you will get updates from there13:44
zeroseven0183So you mean I don't need to mind comment #8?13:51
thekornyes, comment #8 is irrelevant, it is about a fix in launchpad itself13:51
zeroseven0183So if it's a fixed in Launchpad and it affects the PPA then I should be getting the updates with no errors, right?13:52

jibelbdmurray, hey16:45
bdmurrayjibel: howdy16:47
jibelbdmurray, I wrote a script that parse a report of type Package and extract the dpkg error.16:47
jibelIt saves a lot of time reading the logs and might be a useful addition to ubuntu-qa-tools.16:48
bdmurrayjibel: yes that sounds exciting16:48
jibelWould you like to review it ?16:48
jibelI added it to apport, you can see the result here http://paste.ubuntu.com/392633/16:48
jibelsee the key DpkgError16:48
bdmurrayjibel: what's the ErrorMessage field?16:49
jibelbdmurray, It's the dpkg error  something like : subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 10016:50
bdmurrayjibel: and it was blank in line 8 of your paste16:51
jibelthat's because I called the package_hook directly with echo "ERROR HERE" | data/package_hook ...16:52
jibelstaging doesn't let me file an apport report today :/16:52
bdmurrayokay, so this is what it would look like for filing new bugs if it was added to apport?  and you have something to process existing bug reports too?16:53
jibelIn a real report the ErrorMessage wouldn't be empty.16:54
jibelI've a script that read existing reports either from LP or a report file.16:54
bdmurrayokay, cool!16:54
jibelIt's kind a proof of concept but I think we can achieve something with some discussion.16:55
jibelThe big issue are localized messages.16:55
bdmurrayyes, I'd noticed that too16:55
jibelI've worked on that too, I'll send you the script. You'll probably have some idea how to solve that.16:57
bdmurrayUm, your expectations might be a bit unrealistic. ;-)16:58
