| chrisccoulson | micahg - do you have any more changes to get in to firefox? i'm going to start doing a test build in about 10 minutes, and then i'll tag it and upload it once i've done that | 00:41 |
|---|---|---|
| micahg | chrisccoulson: not this time, there's a bug that needs to be fixed before release though | 00:42 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: bug 526291 | 00:42 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 526291 in firefox "abrowser menu entry has Firefox icon" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/526291 | 00:42 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: unless you want to figure it out quickly, I spent some time last night on it without success | 00:46 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: feel free to take if you find a solution | 00:46 |
| * micahg thinks it has to do with the makefile but isn't sure | 00:47 | |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: so you decided to remove kazehakase? | 00:48 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg - yeah, it doesn't make much sense in keeping it | 00:48 |
| chrisccoulson | you're right, the webkit backend doesnt work. i thought i'd tested that, but i must have just got a bit confused with all the different things i did last week ;) | 00:49 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: nice, the debug switch is fixed :) | 00:49 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: I still have to port kazehakase for hardy, jaunty, and karmic | 00:50 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg - yeah, it's fixed for builds with DEB_MIN_SYSDEPS=1, but the fix would break if it's built without that | 00:50 |
| micahg | weird | 00:51 |
| chrisccoulson | but that's ok for now, i need to try and figure out exactly how the wrapper script is meant to work really, and do a proper fix | 00:51 |
| chrisccoulson | but that's for next cycle | 00:51 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: no more linux? | 00:53 |
| Mook_sb | micahg: no more linux QA and binary releases, yeah :( | 00:53 |
| Mook_sb | (it keeps building on the buildbot and stuff, though, since, among other things, we actually _use_ it there internally...) | 00:54 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: well, we don't use the binaries, but will it still be buildable or are we on our own to patch for linux issues | 00:54 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: the real question is should we still try to package it or not? | 00:54 |
| Mook_sb | yeah, I don't think there's going to be too much difference for you, except for maybe longer review times for preed | 00:55 |
| Mook_sb | let's put it this way: I'd still like a package :) | 00:55 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: ok, as long as we'll still have some support from upstream, I'm game for trying | 00:55 |
| Mook_sb | sadly, it's mostly a problem of not being able to get people to actually pony up license money for linux (for the branded distributions). | 00:56 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: license money? | 00:56 |
| Mook_sb | yeah; we're actually getting income for device people shipping songbird as their device + media player software | 00:57 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg - oh, that's strange. i did a 3.6.3 build earlier with system xulrunner (i just wanted to see how different the binary packages were), and i get the proper abrowser icons in that build ;) | 00:57 |
| Mook_sb | nobody wants to even try to spring for a linux license though :( | 00:57 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: I seem to be missing something WRT a linux license | 00:58 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: interesting | 00:58 |
| Mook_sb | micahg: basically, no (licensing) customers are interested in linux, hence we need to focus on other things that actually generate income | 00:59 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: ah, ok, when does someone buy a license? | 00:59 |
| Mook_sb | micahg: to ship songbird as part of the software package when they ship physical mp3/whatever players | 01:00 |
| Mook_sb | basically, we get bundled | 01:00 |
| micahg | Mook_sb: ah, ok, cool | 01:00 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: I have to run, I'll chat with you over the weekend maybe...please push thunderbird as well if possible :) | 01:01 |
| ddecator | this will be interesting. support the community build of songbird and maintain it downstream, or work on a fork of songbird that is completely opensoure and focused on linux (lyrebird) | 05:03 |

| lito | Hi | 18:01 |
| lito | As the songbird developers dropped linux support today, are there any further plans to integrate Songbird into the Ubuntu repos? | 18:08 |
| chrisccoulson | lito - not that i'm aware of | 18:41 |
| chrisccoulson | tbh, we already have enough work to do ;) | 18:42 |
| lito | sure, I was just asking cos ddecator made a remark, that maybe, songbird could be in the repos for 10.10, but the step today by the songbird devs to drop linux support made that plans somehow unrealistic | 18:51 |
| lito | well, thx anyway for the info | 18:54 |
