ddecatorhaha, debuild built a songbird .deb =)06:59
micahgddecator: nice, can you propose a merge or push up to LP in a private branch of yours so I can see the changes?06:59
ddecatormicahg: once debuild finishes i'm going to test to see if it installs alright. if it does, then i'll do that. do you prefer a merge request or me uploading to my own ppa?07:00
ddecatorand it finished =)07:01
micahgddecator: merge request is fine to lp:songbrid07:01
micahg*songbird07:01
micahgddecator: you have to push under your name first07:01
ddecatormicahg: alright, mind telling me real quick how i do that?07:01
micahgddecator: bzr push lp:~ddecatur/songbird/fix-songbird-daily-2010032107:02
ddecatormicahg: from the folder that has the .deb in it?07:02
micahgddecator: not the deb07:03
micahgthe bzr branch07:03
ddecatormicahg: so...the songbird folder or the build-area folder?07:03
micahgddecator: neither07:03
micahgddecator: you need to copy your changes back to the bzr branch that you created07:04
ddecatormicahg: ok, so in groundcontrol, go into the bzr folder labeled "songbird," copy all of my changes into there, and then push it?07:05
ddecatormicahg: p.s., it loaded fine ;)07:05
ddecatorand plays my music =D07:05
micahgddecator: great :)07:07
ddecatorand all of my information is still on there =)07:07
micahgI'm interested in the changes from 1.5 to 1.807:07
ddecatormicahg: alright, sorry, just not sure what all i need to do...so copy everything into that bzr folder or just replace the debian folder in there?07:08
ddecatormicahg: i really like the new look...actually fits the default lucid theme (purple)07:08
micahgddecator: copy your changes into that folder07:08
ddecatormicahg: so the .deb, dgb.deb, diff, all of it?07:08
micahgddecator: i.e. the files you modified in debian in the build-area07:08
micahgddecator: no07:09
ddecatormicahg: ah, so the debian folder, gotcha07:09
ddecatoraw, didn't save my ratings or playlists =(07:10
ddecatormicahg: hopefully i'm doing this right with groundcontrol...07:11
ddecatormicahg: it's uploading07:11
micahgddecator: I haven't used it so I don't know07:11
ddecatormicahg: request merge?07:12
micahgddecator: yes07:12
ddecatormicahg: should be done07:13
micahgddecator: nope you did that wrong07:14
ddecatormicahg: what's wrong?07:15
micahgddecator: did you copy the whole debian dir?07:15
ddecatormicahg: yes07:15
micahgddecator: that's the problem07:15
micahgddecator: you only needed to copy the files you changed...debian/tmp is where make install puts stuff07:15
micahgDiff against target:                166205 lines (+164087/-37) 279 files  modified07:15
ddecatormicahg: oops...07:16
ddecatormicahg: one sec07:17
ddecatormicahg: groundcontrol had me save the change, so i'll pull the latest branch and do it right this time =p07:17
micahgddecator: k07:18
ddecatormicahg: it says "these branches have diverged"07:22
micahgddecator: -push --overwrite07:22
ddecatormicahg: ok, i think i got it that time07:27
ddecatorstill buggy...07:31
ddecatorbut not bad =)07:31
ddecatormicahg: does it look like i did it right that time?07:37
vishddecator: simply close old bugs wher you havent heard back for more than 2 months ;)   sometimes closing the bug only pokes the OP to reply :)07:40
vishddecator: ex: Bug 39167507:41
ubottuLaunchpad bug 391675 in firefox "Glitch between windows titlebar and top panel when maximized" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/39167507:41
ddecatorvish: haha, i've just been following the "wait 4 weeks, ask them to reply, wait 2 more weeks, close the bug" idea from the bugsquad wiki =p07:41
vishddecator: i use the last marked "incomplete"   and then see the 2 months :)07:41
ddecatorvish: fair enough, i'll start doing something like that, mainly just to prevent bugmail spamming (like i did tonight ;))07:42
vishddecator: is that 4..2..close in the wiki?  hmm07:42
ddecatorvish: yah, let me find a sec...07:42
ddecatorvish: see the "incomplete bugs without response from submitter" on the replies wiki page (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Incomplete%20bugs%20without%20a%20response%20from%20submitter)07:44
vishddecator: hehe , neat , thats shorter than 2 months \o/07:45
ddecatorvish: "more than 4 weeks" is what starts the gray area ;)07:45
vishddecator: ;) i use the last after 2weeks message at 2 months :)07:47
ddecatorvish: fair enough, i'll think about adjusting my methods a little =)07:48
vishddecator: nah , not a problem for me.. was just trying to save you the trouble ;)07:49
ddecatorvish: not a problem for you, possibly annoying for those subscribed to firefox bugs ;) at least while i'm doing clean-up...07:49
micahgddecator: as long as you're following policy, it's fine by me07:50
ddecatormicahg: i figure everyone is just deleting my spam like i am =p07:51
ddecatormicahg: btw, did i upload the branch right this time?07:51

micahgddecator: idk07:53
ddecatormicahg: i just used the bzr command you gave (groundcontrol was freaking out on me)07:54
micahgddecator: run bzr log -r109 -p | less and tell me how many lines it is07:54
micahgbzr log -r109 -p | wc -l <---is probably better as it will give you a line count07:54
ddecatormicahg: 24007:55
ddecatormicahg: should i try again?08:10
micahgddecator: idk, try pushing to something else under your name08:10
ddecatormicahg: huh...when i try to unlock it in groundcontrol, it says the lock is in use...08:11

BUGabundoFirefox-3.7 is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox-3.7 process, or restart your system.12:38

BUGabundoTo continue, close the running instance of Minefield or choose a different profile12:41
BUGabundobut I have NO firefox of any version running12:42
asacwhy did you name the profile 3.7-4?12:44
asacis that a pattern you used before?12:44
BUGabundoI have way too many profiles12:44
BUGabundoyes it is12:45
chrisccoulsonBUGabundo, do you have a stale .parentlock file in your profile? i had that after FF 3.7 crashed, and I couldn't get it to start again with symptoms that sounded like yours...12:45

BUGabundochrisccoulson: removing parentlock seems to work12:47
BUGabundoshouldn't those be automagicly removed?12:49
chrisccoulsonBUGabundo, they are if it shuts down normally12:49
* BUGabundo goes to update a bunch of addons now that 3.7a3 is supported by nightly tools 12:51
asacparentlock shouldnt become stale ;)12:54
asacmaybe worse to take a look here: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.9.2/source/profile/dirserviceprovider/src/nsProfileLock.cpp12:54
asacso we have LockWithFcntl and LockWithSymlink12:56
asacoops have to run out for a bit12:56
chrisccoulsonasac - thanks for the pointer. i will investigate that next time it happens again13:08
chrisccoulsonasac - if you get a chance, could you please look over https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/FirefoxNewSupportModel/extension-list at some point13:16
chrisccoulsonfeel free to make changes where you think we should keep some extensions13:16

mahfouzyeah, something is broken14:51

mahfouzfor 3.7 i mean15:04
mahfouzanyway, I like 3.7, it's really faster for things like gmail15:05
BUGabundochromium is faster :P15:09
mahfouzchromium is slower than 3.7 for me when it comes to loading gmail15:10
mahfouzchromium is only faster because it has no real ad blocker :)15:10
asacchrisccoulson: I think we should read the code and see why this could happen15:25
asacbut ok ;)15:25
asacmahfouz: i dont understand why chromium should be faster as it has no real ad blocker15:28
asacor is that a typo?15:28
mahfouzsorry15:28

asacjcastro: what theme are we using atm by default ;)?18:12

jcastroshould I just file a bug?18:14
asacjcastro: talk to fta ;)18:14
asacwe can probably get that in, if we know how to properly package such18:14
jcastrook18:15
ftajcastro, if you mean scrollbar, you'll need to do that in css, it's not a gtk widget19:13
jcastrofta: no I mean the general theme. The scrollbar one is an extension and probably isn't a good idea to ship it since it breaks some features19:20
micahgasac: gjs is ported with JIT disabled...some of the tests fail, do we need to worry about it?19:22
micahgasac: some of the tests fail with it enabled..it works fine with it disabled19:23
ftajcastro, there's no system path to store addons/themes (just user dirs), but upstream agreed it's a must-have feature19:33
mahfouzis it possible to remove this stuff?20:01
mahfouz(firefox-bin:1486): Gdk-WARNING **: XID collision, trouble ahead20:01
mahfouzmy .xsession-errors is unreadable :)20:02
micahgmahfouz: that's flash20:02
jcastrofta: is system themes/addons an existing bug in the upstream? I can keep a wishlist open in lp.20:11
ftajcastro, i'm not sure, i discussed that last week with upstream, but i didn't file a bug myself, i'm busy with work20:44

TomJaegerHi, so what's the deal with bug #512615 ?21:54
ubottuLaunchpad bug 512615 in firefox "fonts are incorrectly rendered due to not using system cairo" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/51261521:54
* micahg runs away21:55
TomJaegerSo am I to understand that you don't care enough about the bug to fix it?22:15
micahgTomJaeger: I do care...it needs more time than I have ATM22:16
TomJaegerHow is it going to be fixed? --enable-system cairo or patching firefox's internal version of cairo22:17
micahgTomJaeger: we need to get it fixed upstream either by mozilla or cairo22:17
TomJaegerSo it's not going to happen for lucid?22:17
micahgI can't say for sure22:18
TomJaegerwow22:18
TomJaegerwhat's wrong with system cairo?22:19
TomJaegerLet's face it -- the chances of anything happening upstream before lucid reaches hardcore freeze mode are essentially 0.22:26
micahgTomJaeger: yes, but since we're using upstream libs, we can get the fix after lucid releases as well :)22:27
TomJaegerHow long will this take, though?  In my mind, a year would be very optimistic.22:28
micahgTomJaeger: idk...it depends if we can prove how widespread the problem is...ATM, it's just Ubuntu with the issue AFAIK22:29
TomJaegeryes, because only debian/ubuntu is shipping with a patched cairo22:29
TomJaegerand for debian this obviously wouldn't be a problem since they can just patch away however they feel like.22:30
micahgTomJaeger: right22:31
TomJaegerThe issue comes up periodically on the cairo mailing list (last time in January), but no conclusion is ever reached.22:34
TomJaegerAnd even if this feature gets added to cairo master eventually, the result is unlikely to be backportable.22:38
micahgTomJaeger: one problem at a time22:40
TomJaegerThis is my point, though -- sorting all of this out will take a lot of time.22:40
TomJaegerJust to be clear, the decision that ubuntu will not enable system cairo (for fear that mozilla bump its cairo dependency in a point release) is set in stone?23:21
micahgTomJaeger: Not my place to say23:23
[reed]asac / micahg / fta: http://design-noir.de/log/2010/03/hit-by-a-really-nasty-bug-in-ubuntu/23:43
micahg[reed]: ??23:46
micahg[reed]: are you complaining or informing?23:47
[reed]dao hates lucid's default window control placement so much that he's basically threatening to resort to XUL-based title bar rather than native23:47
micahg[reed]: ah...I see23:49
asacTomJaeger: thats set in stone, yes. we need to get permission to patch in-source one. for that collecting links to relevant upstream discussion would help23:52
asacmicahg: i have a working enigmail ;)23:52
asacif you have x86 i can give you an .xpi to test23:52
asachttp://people.canonical.com/~asac/tmp/enigmail-1.0-linux-i686.xpi23:54

asaconly in x86 chroot then23:58
micahgasac: it won't work when you're done or right now?23:58
asacerr. that xpi wont work23:59
asacbecause its x8623:59
asacthe final result will work23:59
