fedoraloggerJontheEchidna: please take a look at bug 21279600:00
ubottuLaunchpad bug 212796 in kubuntu-default-settings "Kubuntu lacks default key bindings for Switch One Desktop Down/Up/etc" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/21279600:00
* fedoralogger doesnt think we should set that00:00
fedoraloggeralso ctrl+alt+arrow is used in various apps00:00
macofedoralogger: what does? O_o00:20
fedoralogger*shrug*00:22
fedoraloggerI have a feeling I use that shortcut at times00:22
fedoraloggeror used maybe00:23
macoctrl+alt+arrows is what compiz uses00:23
macoive never *heard* of it colliding with anything00:23
fedoraloggercompiz collieds with all sorts of things00:23
fedoraloggermostly it just stays unnoticed :P00:23
fedoraloggeri.e. it used to collide with ooo for years on some rather unused shortcut00:24
* Sput has been using ctrl+alt+arrows for desktop switching for a decade00:24
fedoraloggerhm00:24
Sputcan't remember it ever having collide00:24
Sputd00:24
macoyeah the non-default plugins sometimes do00:24
fedoraloggerin that case00:24
fedoraloggerlets bring it to upstreams attention!00:24
macobut the desktop switch ive never heard of a collision00:24
macoooo does WEIRD shortcuts, btw. try F11. it's NOT fullscreen! wtf?00:24
fedoraloggerf11 is not fullscreen in a lot of kde apps either :P00:25
macodo those ones *have* fullscreen at all?00:25
macofor OOo, f11 is "styles" and fullscreen is something else that doesnt fit any hig that im aware of00:27
SputF11 was styles already back when it was still Star Office00:29
Sputwhich predates KDE :)00:29
Sputhm. now I feel old again.00:31
* fedoralogger wants a machine that goes "bing"00:31
macowow00:37
macothats old00:37
macoi was a gnome user when i noticed the f11 weirdness. gnome and i think kde both say f11=fullscreen, and windows does too i'm sure00:37
fedoraloggermaco: I do not think KDE's hig says f11 for fullscreen00:38
macoi'll go look00:38
fedoraloggerif so then I would know more apps that violate that guideline than those following it ^^00:38
macoi was assuming it since it seems to be default elsewhere00:38
macohttp://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/Keyboard_Shortcuts00:39
macoyes, the hig says fullscreen = f1100:39
fedoraloggerkonsole doesnt follow that00:41
fedoraloggerneither does kaffeine, dragon or bangaran IIRC00:41
fedoraloggerin fact only konqueror and rekonq come to mind regarding f11 for fullscreen00:41
fedoraloggerthough those also support ctrl+shift+f IIRC,00:41
fedoraloggerwhich seems to be more an established standard than f1100:42
fedoraloggerkrdc also does use ctrl+shift+f and not f1100:42
fedoraloggersame for okular00:43
fedoraloggerseele: ^ I think the f11 for shortcut paradigm should either be enforced within core KDE software or exchanged with ctrl+shift+f00:44
fedoraloggerlatter seems to be the better choice because konsole for example cant use f11 at any rate because it might conflict with CLI shortcuts00:45

Riddellstuck in what way?11:58
robinpRiddell: you jinxed me. It was just not downloading but as soon as you said something it started working again :/12:01
Riddellrobinp: beta was out recently so I think the servers have been busy12:05
robinpRiddell: kk np12:05
markeyfedoralogger: yes, XMMS is C, but I plan to implement a C compiler in Ruby, and then put it in there, and then make the C compiler run a Ruby interpreter. that seems to be a simple solution12:20
markeyI like simple solutions12:20
markeypossibly also adding Visual Basic support12:20
Mamarokmarkey: could I has GW Basic, too?12:21
markeygood idea!12:21

markeyScottK: yep, the blog seemed rather bizarre. I wouldn't take it too seriously :)12:40

Riddellkubuntu-devel-03-13.txt:[08:04] <glatzor> Riddell, I made some bug fixes to the 0.5.X branch of packagekit which are worth cherry picking.13:42
danttiRiddell: pong13:42
Riddellkubuntu-devel-03-13.txt:[08:04] <glatzor> Riddell, especially the fixes to the search and the encoding handling13:42
Riddelldantti: do you know where I can find those ^^13:42
shadeslayerRiddell: thanks :D13:43
danttiRiddell: afaik it's about the last Pk version released today...13:43
macoum did knetworkmanager explode yesterday? i dont think i installed any updates for it (just for quassel) in the last week though...13:44
danttiRiddell: btw what do you think it's more important for aptcc, install .deb files or get distro upgrades?13:44
Riddelldantti: ah, there's a packagekit 0.5.8 which isn't listed on http://www.packagekit.org/pk-download.html13:45
danttiyup13:46
Riddelldantti: in lucid we're using kpackagekit for distro upgrade (karmic too although the update-notifier-kde is the main one) so we'd need to keep that13:46
Riddellinstall .deb files we can keep using our install-package script even though it's been on our list of things to get rid of for some time13:46
Riddellin general glatzor and mvo still need to be convinced about aptcc though, they know more about the issues than I do but I don't think they're convinced by it yet13:47
danttiRiddell: hmm but afaik python apt can install files..13:47
Riddellof course if you come to UDS you can convince them :)13:47
Riddelldantti: yes kpackagekit can install .deb files using python apt backend which is nice, but mostly we havn't got around to porting things to using it yet13:48
danttihehe, well I conviced myself this weekend while installing packages on a notebook with 1gb of ram.. :P13:49
Riddelldantti: I think kpackagekit can't do "apt-get update" which is needed for software-properties-kde and is another reason we can't get rid of our install-package script13:49
danttiRiddell: why It can't?13:49
danttipython apt does it (or did) the wrong way, since it didn't get localization of package descriptions13:50
danttiRiddell: btw did they fixed this issue in newer versions?13:50
danttithat was one of the first things aptcc did... :P13:51
Riddelldantti: why it can't do "apt-get update"?  I don't think there's a command line for it is all, software-properties-kde needs a graphical way to call apt-get update13:51
Riddelldantti: I don't know, I've not looked into package translations13:51
danttiRiddell: I'm confused do you need a cmd line like kpackagekit --refresh-cache?13:52
Riddelldantti: yes13:52
danttiRiddell: that's quite easy to do.. :P iirc there is a dbus object for that too which one do you prefer?13:53
Riddelldantti: probably just a command line is easiest13:53
danttiorg.kde.KPackageKitSmartIcon there is a RefreshCache but I can add a cmd line..13:54
danttis/there is/has13:54
Riddelldantti: nothing here   qdbus org.kde.KPackageKitSmartIcon /org/freedesktop/PackageKit | grep -i cache13:55
danttiRiddell: is it running?13:55
danttiit's dbus activated13:55
Riddelldantti: http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/n8rt8GbN yes13:56
danttiweird it's there for quite a while..13:56
danttiRiddell: ah no there are two interfaces13:56
danttithat one is shared with gnome packagekit13:57
Riddelldantti: where is the other?13:58
danttiRiddell: if you open with qdbusviewer you will see13:59
danttiI'm trying to use this qdbus but no lucky yet13:59
danttiRiddell: qdbus org.kde.KPackageKitSmartIcon /14:00
danttiRiddell: no, qdbus org.kde.KPackageKitSmartIcon / org.kde.KPackageKitSmartIcon.RefreshCache14:01
Riddellah "/"  dbus can be confusing14:01
Riddelldantti: that's not quite what I'm after, the only GUI there is the systray icon, I'd like a dialogue with a progress bar14:02
danttithe only problem is what i've told you, you should check if python apt is now downloading the packages localizations..14:02
Riddelldantti: this isn't high priority of course, we have install-package and it works for now :)14:02
danttihmm14:02
danttiwell that's easy to add too.. I'll just talk with richard what he thinks on adding it to gpk too14:03
danttithis way any pk tool could do it14:03

dpmRiddell, in Catalan we'd like to have the 'ca@valencia' translations in the same language pack as 'ca', as in the gnome language pack. I still have to check if other teams using variants also prefer to have it like this. But in any case, how can we do this, shall I just open a bug?15:51
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
fedoraloggerdpm: shoulnt that be done in rosetta/lang-pack build scripts?16:44
dpmhi fedoralogger, it actually is, but there is a bit missing. Kubuntu translations are a bit different in the sense that apart from the translations in language packs, they need the kde-l10n-$LOCALE packages installed as well. This is the part I meant: having the kde-l10n-$LOCALE and kde-l10n-$LOCALE-variant packages merged into one (I think that part is the one the kubuntu packaging tools do)16:48
fedoraloggerhm16:48
fedoraloggerdpm: in that case language-selector should map ca@valencia to ca16:48
fedoraloggerbecause doing it in the source package would make them a lot more difficult to manipulate via scripting magic16:49
jussi01fedoralogger: that nick really doesnt suit you... can we have our apachelogger back? :D16:52
dpmfedoralogger, well if it has to make packaging more difficult, we might as well leave them as they are. I just wanted to ensure that they are installed with the main locale's packages, since I remember we had problems with that not being the case at some point in Karmic. I'll just have to re-check that they are indeed installed together.16:53
fedoraloggerdpm: making langauge-selector install kde-l10n-ca and kde-l10n-cavalencia if the ca language pack is a lot easier to archive and ultimately leads to the same result16:54

* apachelogger needs to apply at canonical first19:41
nixternalapachelogger: +1 :)19:41
jjessei got it to work in karmic at one time19:42
macoJontheEchidna: yeah youre right19:42
nixternalUbuntu Desktop Display and Input Engineer - Xorg19:42
nixternalUbuntu Desktop Display and Input Engineer (Network)19:42
nixternalUbuntu Desktop Engineer - GTK19:42
JontheEchidnaapachelogger + job at canonical + year's supply of alcohol == ruby code to generate Ubuntu One Music plugin for all music players19:42
nixternalUbuntu Desktop Sound Engineer19:42
nixternalapachelogger: ^^ any of those fit?19:42
apacheloggerI could get cracking with GTK19:43
* apachelogger loves c anyway :D19:43
apacheloggerthen again that kind of GTK engineer must only do python19:43
nixternalthat's what kubuntu devs in the past did...once they realized there was no potential for employment, they started using gnome19:43
apachelogger^^19:43
jjessehahaha19:43
jjesse+1 nixternal19:43
apacheloggerI can always apply at kdab :P19:43
apacheloggermove away from that silly stepchild stuff all together19:44
apacheloggerthen again19:44
yuriy_is it just me or is there no way to put a plasmoid (nemely the message indicator) in the systray?19:44
ScottKjjesse: After I upgraded my netbook from Karmic -> Lucid I lost the Broadcom wireless drivers and had to reinstall them.19:44
apacheloggerI recently got scared quite a bit when I saw how many KDE devs are working for kdab these days19:45
jjesseScottK: jockey says they are enabled19:45
apacheloggeryuriy_: only possible in lucid19:45
ScottKOK.  Different than the problem I had.19:45
jjessewill try to reinstall tonight when get home19:45
jjessethe drivers that is19:45
nixternali think for most of us here now, we aren't looking for employment with canonical, and have just come to love Kubuntu so much19:46
apacheloggerlove aint gonna pay bills though19:48
apacheloggerneither is proofing leibniz right19:48
apacheloggeryet I have to do it -.-19:48
ScottKThey say that love will find a way ....19:48
maco:P19:48
nixternalhahaha19:51
nixternalwhat's love got to do, got to do with it19:51
nixternalwho needs a heart when a heart can be broken19:51
macomeatloaf time yet? so now i'm prayin for the end of time..19:51
nixternalwhat's love but a second hand emotion19:54
nixternaldamn, tina turner makes you wanna go all ike turner on this place :p19:54
apacheloggeroh my, better help me find my notes on congruence classes or whatever those might be called in english :P19:55
nixternalhehe19:55
nixternalright now I am trying to design, well not design yet but figure out, a much better help system19:55
nixternalKHelpCenter blows arse, and after hanging out with Shaun McCance this weekend and seeing what he is doing with Yelp 3.0 for GNOME, I am envious19:56
apacheloggerrm -rf khelpecenter => 100% improvement19:56
nixternaland then to see what Mac has done for help, holy hell that was bad ass19:56
nixternalapachelogger: yup19:56
nixternalrm -rf khtml too19:56
apacheloggernixternal: I would go derive the qt help thingy and build up on that19:57
JontheEchidnabbl19:57
nixternalseriously, khtml codebase is so freakin' confusing, that I would rather write an entire documentation implementation for webkit19:57
apacheloggerhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9dpTTpjymE19:57
nixternalapachelogger: qt-assistance is garbage too19:57
apacheloggernixternal: well, so it needs fixing and khc needs fixing19:57
nixternala help app shouldn't need to be full screen with an insanely large index on the left side...Yelp is compact, so you can see around it19:58
nixternalapachelogger: and that's what I have been playing with, though fixing isn't the word I would use19:58
nixternalhell, I wouldn't even recycle this crap, forget mother earth on this one, she can have it!19:58
apacheloggeromg!!!19:58
apacheloggerbut khc got fancy perl scripting internals :P19:58
* apachelogger finds that the most weird part about khc really19:59
apacheloggerthough I can see its advantages19:59
apacheloggerwell19:59
apacheloggerthe once it had at some point for a developer ^^19:59
nixternalthis weekend we also had the Flourish Open Source conference, and they had a Women In Open Source panel with one of BSDs leaders, which I have just totally forgotten her name...I am waiting for the video because I missed it, but I heard it was an amazing talk/panel19:59
nixternalapachelogger: perl scripting and shell scripting, and hell even scripting with c++20:00
nixternal"meinproc << "--xslt foo.xsl" << "--outfile foo.html" << "--cache index.cache.bz2";20:00
apacheloggerIn computer science, it is the remainder operator that is usually indicated by either "%" (e.g. in C, Java, Javascript, and Python) or "mod" (e.g. in SQL, Visual Basic, Haskell), with exceptions (e.g. Excel). These operators are commonly pronounced as "mod", but it is specifically a remainder that is computed (since in C99 negative number will be returned if the first argument is negative, and in Python a negative number will be returned20:01
apachelogger if the second argument is negative). The function modulo instead of mod, like 38 ≡ 14 (modulo 12) is sometimes used to indicate the common residue rather than a remainder (e.g. in Ruby).20:01
apacheloggeryay20:01
yuriy_apachelogger: i'm on lucid. i can't seem to drag it in there or anything20:01
yuriy_oh you have to do it in teh systray settings20:01
yuriy_unintuitive20:01
apacheloggeron Z/nZ : a_n+b+n=(a+b)_n20:02
apacheloggerthat actually makes sense20:02
apacheloggeryuriy_: no draggery20:02
apacheloggeryuriy_: well, the plasma devs where wicked in applying their containment paradigm everywhere20:02
apacheloggerbut they forgot about one rather important part where you could drag stuff ;)20:02
yuriy_everything else in plasma is draggery20:02
apacheloggerfail of paradigm obviously20:02
apacheloggerthey should have derived :P20:03
yuriy_now the other issue is that now that it's in the systray it gives me a message about needing to run an indicator enabled app even though i have kmail running and configured to use it20:04
nixternalanyone hiring a "realistic unmotivated opportunistic"?20:05
nixternalI think that should be an eminem song20:05
yuriy_it scares me that my computer would be completely unusable right now without quad core20:08
yuriy_top is showing consistently 6-10 processes with double digit cpu usage20:08
seeleNightrose: love the streak in your hair..is that new?20:12

JontheEchidnaapachelogger: seen kde svn 1105780?21:52
ubottuhttp://websvn.kde.org/trunk/?rev=1105780&view=rev | svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk -r 1105780 | Some MySQL versions need an explicit run of mysql_install_db when creating the database initially. So, let's do that if mysql...21:52
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: yes I requested21:53
JontheEchidnaneat21:53
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: feel free to try creating a patch for akonadi 1.3.121:53
apacheloggerbecause trunk is not even remotely related to 1.3.1 :P21:53
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: neoclust might have done that already though21:53
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: http://pastebin.com/QtiqB11A21:55
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: know where mdv hides all their packaging goodies?21:55
apacheloggerin their svn :P21:55
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: also we need another patch for updates it seems21:55
apacheloggerI do hate mysql very much21:55
apacheloggerit is like the python of databases -.-21:56
JontheEchidnawhat is the patch you pastebin'd21:56
JontheEchidna?21:56
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: for new databases21:57
JontheEchidna"make things not break for new databases"?21:57
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: yes21:58
JontheEchidnaand then we'll still need a patch for "make existing databases not break"?21:58
apacheloggeryes21:58
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: but please try that first21:59
JontheEchidnak21:59
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: volker did a fix yesterday and neoclust only did that backport attemt21:59
apacheloggeralso21:59
apacheloggerALSO21:59
apacheloggera) someone needs to subscribe to kde-pim ml because they apparently want to start a akonadi deployment issue thread21:59
apacheloggerb) akonadi might gain sqlite support21:59
apacheloggerc) I still hate mysql, can we please use psql?21:59
JontheEchidnasounds like you're the expert. I don't know much about such things22:00
apacheloggermeh22:03
JontheEchidnaanywayz, pbuildin'22:03
ScottKIt's a given that apachelogger is the expert.  The question is can he be motivated to bring his awesomeness to bear on the problem.22:05

* JontheEchidna in windoze playing sim city 300023:22
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: the update_db patch can probably be incorportaed into that23:22
apacheloggerALSO23:22
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: we need major changes to the mysql packages going with that23:22
apacheloggerthe two scripts depend on quite a bit of magic and must be moved to the -core package23:23
