tnksjust curious if the bulk of Kubuntu development is on the installer.00:25
tnkssomeone on #kubuntu indicated that the UI was more-or-less KDE.00:26
tnkswithout much augmentation.00:26
tnksso I was curious if Kubuntu offered much more than just "apt-get kde" and swapping out gnome for kde.00:26
DarkwingDuckYour asking what is added to Kubuntu from KDE?00:27
DarkwingDuckOh, what Kubuntu has that KDE doesn't00:27
DarkwingDucks/oh/or00:28
tnksyeah, something like that.00:28
tnksbtw, this is just a passing curiosity.00:29
tnksmy coworking installed Ubuntu, and then looked up and said, "I think I'm using Gnome then"00:29
tnksat which point, I remembered that Kubuntu existed.00:29
DarkwingDuckYes, Kubuntu is the KDE version. It's very close to pure KDE00:29
DarkwingDuckIf you want to look apt-get install kubuntu-desktop00:30
DarkwingDuckYou can pick between Gnome and KDE at login screen00:30
tnksI see.00:31
DarkwingDuckUbuntu uses Gnome as a desktop enviroment, Kubuntu uses KDE00:31
tnksso does Canonical as a company keep up with Kubuntu development?00:31
tnksor is it a completely volunteer-based distro?00:31
DarkwingDuckMostly volunteer-based00:32
macoagateau and Riddell work for canonical00:32
jjesseRiddell is an employee of canonical00:32
tnksactually, that said, it might even use the same multiverse/universes, right?00:32
jjessealong w/ agateau00:32
DarkwingDucktnks: Yes00:32
jjessetnks yes the same universe/multiverse00:32
tnksI see, makes sense, then.00:33
tnksI haven't switched from Debian to Ubuntu, so I'm not exactly sure how much Ubuntu augments the Gnome experience.00:33
tnksI know there's lots of non-Gnome stuff.00:33

apacheloggerJontheEchidna: ping00:35
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: pong00:35
DarkwingDuckwhat you break this time apachelogger?00:35
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: do you have a karmic testing vm?00:35
apacheloggerDarkwingDuck: actually it seems to be left over from nixternal :(00:36
JontheEchidnaNope, not anymore00:36
* apachelogger doesnt get how this ever worked00:36
DarkwingDuckapachelogger: Ouch00:36
apacheloggeranyone with karmic around?00:36
* apachelogger starts crying00:37
DarkwingDuckwhat's broken?00:38
=== claydoh_ is now known as claydoh
apacheloggerthe settings menu00:39
apacheloggeror rather the hiding of systemsettings in said meny00:39
apacheloggermenu even00:39
apacheloggerthe first layer of that bug is caused by kickoffrc00:39
DarkwingDuckhmmmm,00:39
apacheloggerfrom kds00:39
apacheloggerit sets the systemapps to systemsettings and kickoff using fullpaths00:39
apacheloggerthe hiding code however expects only file name without extension00:39
apacheloggerso, if one removes that kickoffrc stuff the hiding code actually kicks in00:40
apacheloggerand here is the madness in all this00:40
apacheloggerkickoff works like this00:40
apacheloggerat initial loading it only creates a model and view of the categories00:40
apacheloggerto be precise of each category that is not set to noDisplay or doesnt have any entries00:41
DarkwingDuckokay00:41
apacheloggerthe hiding however happens in the code that adds the app itself to the model00:41
apacheloggerso the category is populated before the app is hidden00:41
apacheloggerat the time the settings menu gets created, it still has an entry00:42
apacheloggerbut then the entry (systemsettings) does not get shown because of the hiding magic00:42
apacheloggerso you have a settings menu but the menu is empty :(00:42
DarkwingDuckThats strange00:42
DarkwingDuckBut, somehow it worked...00:43
apacheloggerwell00:43
DarkwingDucksorta00:43
apacheloggermy theory is that someone changed the init process around so that initaly only the categories are in memory00:43
apacheloggerso earlier the process might have looke different, that by the time the categories got populated, settings was empty and thus hidden00:44
apacheloggerbecause I cant find any change in the model code that would cause this problem00:45
DarkwingDuckhmmm00:45
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: maybe you can talk to aseigo about this?00:45
* JontheEchidna sees wall of text and cowers00:46
apacheloggerI know him being a suse user he probably has a billion entries in the settings category (and every other cat :P)00:46
apacheloggerbut there are those poor apacheloggers that like a tidy menu and find the broken code right there rather awful ;)00:46

shadeslayerRiddell: got a minute?09:52
shadeslayerJontheEchidna: there?09:56
shadeslayerany devs around here? i need to talk for a few minutes...09:59
=== shadeslayer is now known as evilshadeslayer
amichairevilshadeslayer: that's it? no one answers for a few minutes and you go ahead and become evil?10:01
evilshadeslayeramichair: hehe... i dont have alot of time... in between classes10:02
amichairevilshadeslayer: what's up?10:02
evilshadeslayeramichair: well im thinking of starting a project... on the lines of the ubuntu manual project...10:02
evilshadeslayeri was hoping to catch nixternal or Riddell but...10:03
evilshadeslayerso anyways... my idea was to have a Kubuntu Manual....\10:03
evilshadeslayerlike for 10.10..... so if anyones interested i might go ahead with it.. otherwise itll be a waste of time10:04
evilshadeslayeramichair: what do you think?10:05
amichairI'm actually not familira with Ubuntu Manual10:05
amichairnot familiar, either10:05
evilshadeslayeramichair: oh check out : www.ubuntu-manual.com10:05
evilshadeslayeramichair: um.. : http://ubuntu-manual.org/10:06
amichairthat's confusing, there's ubuntumanual.org and ubuntu-manual.org and they are different10:06
evilshadeslayeri think its the one ive given you...10:07
amichairevilshadeslayer: in general I'm all for good documentation and/or books to help start out, especially for someone coming from Windows (which is probably everyone who needs help)10:08
evilshadeslayeramichair: theres also : www.test.ubuntu-manual.org10:08
amichairbut I do think it's a good idea to discuss it here or in the mailing list, to get eveyone's input on what should go in10:08
evilshadeslayeramichair: yeah... the aim of the ubuntu manual project is to give out new converts help....10:08
Riddellevilshadeslayer: probably talk to nixternal about documentation needs10:09
evilshadeslayerRiddell: yeah,like i said ill have to talk to him....10:09
evilshadeslayeramichair: yeah ill put in a mail in the devel list this evening :)10:10
evilshadeslayerRiddell: btw how much space do we have on the CD right now? out of 700 MB i mean :)10:10
debfxagateau: how could kmix's osd widget be used by kmix and the battery applet? where would it need to be placed?10:11
Riddellevilshadeslayer: depends on the image, see cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu10:11
evilshadeslayerRiddell: whee... loads of space :D ( 655 MB )10:12
agateaudebfx: kdelibs?10:12
agateau:/10:13
amichairevilshadeslayer: how is that possible? we don't even have room for FireFox, which is probably the most installed app...10:14
evilshadeslayeroh thats the alternate.... 676 on the live system10:14
evilshadeslayeramichair: we will probably never have ff in the default install10:14
amichairevilshadeslayer: it used to be there, no? Or maybe I'm mistaken10:15
evilshadeslayeramichair: um. dont think so.. or i would have seen it on the ML10:15
evilshadeslayeramichair: we installed arora once.... but that was it10:16
amichairevilshadeslayer: maybe back in dapper or something?10:16
amichairman time flies :-)10:16
evilshadeslayeramichair: ohh... ive only been involved since intrepid10:17
amichairthat's when I first go Kubuntized10:17
evilshadeslayeramichair: hehe... i got kubuntized in Intrepid.... i ran gnome and KDE and xfce :P10:17
evilshadeslayerAlthough i kept ordering CD's from shipit since hoary....10:18
amichairI went straight from windows... a year or two of double-booting, and now windows rests in piece on my old always-off P410:18
klingeohow the new CD will look like?10:19
=== klingeo is now known as ofirk
evilshadeslayeramichair: i still dual boot.... but im thinking of virtualizing windows now.. dont open it.... *ever*10:19
Riddellwe don't know what the CD artwork will look like, maybe I should ask10:19
amichairevilshadeslayer: anyway, I'm sure there's no wasted space there... maybe a mixup between mbs and mibs? (or whatever they're called)10:19
evilshadeslayerRiddell: yeah i was searching for it and i couldnt find it either :P10:20
=== ofirk is now known as ofir
evilshadeslayeramichair: yeah... every KB is important on the CD :p10:20
amichairevilshadeslayer: there's no incentive to not fill up every byte10:22
amichairI wonder if CD/DVD is the last we'll see of optical and/or mechanical media...10:22
apacheloggero/10:23
evilshadeslayeramichair: http://imagebin.org/91866 : rofl10:23
amichairhey apachelogger10:23
apacheloggerRiddell: random though on CD artwork ... it would be super cool if the artwork could be in line with the rest of the artwork10:23
apacheloggerhi amichair10:23
evilshadeslayerapachelogger: you mean the new logo?10:23
amichairevilshadeslayer: what am I looking at?10:24
evilshadeslayerRiddell: oh btw did you add the Kubuntu logo to the Kickoff menu? it doest work with other themes10:24
apacheloggerlogo -- logo != defnition of artwork10:24
evilshadeslayeramichair: the speed...10:24
amichairevilshadeslayer: oh.... those were the days :-)10:24
evilshadeslayeramichair: thats the download speed in my campus :P10:24
apacheloggerevilshadeslayer: it works when the theme does not specifiy their own10:25
apacheloggerit always go to kubuntu.org10:25
apacheloggerunless kds is not installed10:25
evilshadeslayerapachelogger: hm... and where does the logo get specified?10:25
amichairbtw, yesterday when trying out oem install, I noticed a humungous kubuntu logo in k menu, messed everything up10:26
apacheloggerbranding svgz somewhere in the theme10:26
evilshadeslayeri installed the glassified theme and i miss the logo :(10:26
apacheloggeramichair: messed everything up?10:26
Riddellapachelogger has made that logo smaller in bzr10:26
Riddelltoo small in my opinion, you can hardly make out the circle's detail10:26
apacheloggerevilshadeslayer: poke the theme author then :P10:26
evilshadeslayerapachelogger: btw any views on a kubuntu manual?10:27
ofirthe website is almost done, so if there is any art-work needed to be done, I can help10:27
apacheloggerRiddell: it's not much smaller than before, but from a proportional POV it is better suited10:27
apacheloggerthere is about equal empty space on each side now10:27
apacheloggerevilshadeslayer: like in a print manual?10:28
evilshadeslayerapachelogger: like the ubuntu manual project10:28
evilshadeslayerok gtg10:28
evilshadeslayerapachelogger: cya in the evening10:29
apacheloggerRiddell: IMHO the only way to prevent the blurryiness of the circle is to make a special version for small sizes, though quite frankly I wouldnt know how one can make a circle of that particular kind smallsizish :(10:29
Riddellthat's why I liked it big10:29
apacheloggerthat is a work around, not a fix :P10:30
apacheloggerRiddell: if we change the kickoff logo to the circle the blurryness wouldnt matter ;)10:31
apacheloggerpeople wouldnt look at it close enough, because they recognize the basic pattern and make it out as this circle thingy10:31
apacheloggerso my theory at least :)10:31
* apachelogger thinks that it will be difficult finding the resources for a manual project10:32
apacheloggerubuntu one is 172 pages10:33
apacheloggereven if we had a team that could throw out 172 pages of documentation in 6 months, maintain that amount of content is even more a challange10:34
apacheloggerlet alone getting that amount of content translated10:34
amichairapachelogger: http://imagebin.org/9186710:34
amichair(btw is imagebin.ca down? is there a preferred ubuntu imagebin?)10:35
apacheloggeramichair: yeah, I made it less biggy10:35
apacheloggerstill I think it will overlap on those small sizes10:35
apacheloggerand that it looks so fuggly is all kickoff's fault :P10:35
apacheloggerworth a bug report IMHO, maybe fade the text towards the logo or something10:36
apacheloggeras it is that just looks like a bug10:36
apacheloggeramichair: do you also find the fonts rather big?10:36
amichairapachelogger: what if u switched places? kubuntu followed by username?10:36
debfxagateau: in libplasma?10:36
apacheloggeramichair: that would still make the text clash into the kickoff border10:37
apacheloggerso youd still need some visual help there10:37
amichairamichair: yeah, but that would look slightly less problematic perhaps10:37
amichairor, the username text in a line under kubuntu? just the images on the top line?10:37
apacheloggerthat wastes space :P10:38
apacheloggerhaving the logo on the left also caues image overload10:38
apacheloggeryou have logo + user icon right next to each other10:38
amichairif the kubuntu is matched to the image size, each on opposing corners, then all that is added is the height of the username text, which is not that much10:39
amichair(matched to the image height, that is)10:39
apacheloggerthat will sure look weird10:40
amichairmaybe...10:40
apacheloggeramichair: well, feel free to give it a try, but from my POV the only sensible *fix* is to add fading to the text10:40
amichairor, maybe we can drop the host name? is it needed there?10:40
apacheloggerworkaround10:41
apacheloggerwhat i people have long names?10:41
amichairthen they'll have problems in any case :-P10:42
apacheloggerwell10:42
apacheloggernot if we fix it properly :P10:42
apacheloggeramichair: we couldnt even strip the hostname at this point since it would break string freeze10:43
amichairapachelogger: sorry, I'm fresh out of bad ideas ;-)10:48
amichairbtw is everything frozen for the beta, or until final?10:48
apacheloggerbeta10:48
amichairgoody10:49
amichairthere's still time for a revolution!10:49
amichairdoes ubuntu have an imagebin?10:50
amichairRiddell: regarding the merge thing, I wrote the reporter to try reinstalling software-properties first in case it's broken at his end, we'll see how it goes10:51
agateaudebfx: possibly10:51
apacheloggerRiddell: the icon name of the kubuntu menu icon in kds is wrong10:54
apacheloggerspec says start-here-kubuntu not kubuntu-menu10:54
apacheloggeragateau: hai, btw, I assigned some buggies to you that ought to be fixed before 10.0410:54
RiddellI just used what we shipped in karmic10:54
agateauapachelogger: yeah10:54
agateauduplicates10:54
agateausame bug as amarok missing icons10:55
apacheloggerRiddell: in that case it was all wrong in karmic too :D10:55
agateauI am on it10:55
amichairthe system settings scrollbar is bad, who's in charge of that? what package is that anyway, is it ours?10:55
apacheloggeragateau: just wanted to make sure that everything is documented ;)10:55
amichairapachelogger: ^^ you are the oracle, you surely must know...10:59
Riddellamichair: apt-cache showsrc systemsettings10:59
amichairRiddell: 10x... so it's upstream and we patch it to our needs?11:01
apacheloggerno11:01
apacheloggerit is upstream and we patch it as per upstream's suggestions :P11:01
Riddellwe don't patch it at all11:02
amichairah, ok. So it's an upstream bug.11:03
apacheloggeruhhh11:04
apacheloggermaybe we can use wordwarp in kickoff11:04
amichairapachelogger: make the username multiline? good idea! it's got extra vertical space anyway...11:05
apacheloggerwoah11:05
apacheloggerthe scrollbar in systemsettings is really bogus11:05
apacheloggerlike seriously awful11:05
amichairapachelogger: yeah, that's the bug I'm reporting11:05
apacheloggerbut I think it worked properly in 4.4.111:05
amichairit's almost unusable11:05
amichairwithout getting RSI11:05
apacheloggerwoah11:05
amichairit should come bundled with rsibreak11:06
apacheloggerwordwarp messed up the layout ^^11:06
apacheloggerevne though my name fits the space11:06
apacheloggerbad idea11:06
apacheloggerwho had that silly idea anyway11:06
amichairit's a good idea, I'm sure it can be done11:06
amichairleave the widget size fixed, and let the text inside it flow like wine11:07
apacheloggerwell11:07
apacheloggerI think the layout is a bit fugly11:07
apacheloggeroh right11:07
apacheloggerJontheEchidna fiddled with the layout to make the user icon properly aligned11:07
amichaironly yesterday I was fighting against qt to fix ubiquity11:07
apacheloggerI suppose since then the user icon does not belong to the layout anymore11:08
apacheloggerand thus he wordwrap of course does not take the user icon into account11:08
apacheloggerwhat is more important is that for some reason the logo expands so that the wordwarp happens when it shouldnt11:08
amichairu can probably just define a widget for the text, and put whatever layout/label u need inside it11:08
amichairand probably mess around with its contentsmargins too11:09
apacheloggernow that would be silly :P11:11
apacheloggerlayouts is the right approach here11:11
amichairI see the printer applet nested scrollbar bug is still there11:35
Riddellnested scrollbar bug?11:38
amichairRiddell: printer job options has a scrollbar inside the outer scrollbar11:40
amichairRiddell: http://imagebin.org/9187411:42
amichairu need to use both scrollbars to reach the bottom11:43

* apachelogger rms12:27
apacheloggerRiddell: kubuntu_105_netbook_favourites.diff can be archived via capser I suppose?12:29
apacheloggeragateau: just so you know http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=87060&p=153899#p153897 do we have something to backport?12:36
Riddellapachelogger: I tried that but couldn't find anything which worked reliably12:37
Riddellapachelogger: yes I expect we have dbusmenu patches leaking into backports12:37
apacheloggerkk12:37
apacheloggerRiddell: about the favourites patch ... there is a config file it seems, so we could probably just dump the appropriate stuff in kubuntu-netbook-defaults and casper could then just run sed on that file12:38
=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
Riddellapachelogger: I tried that, it'll be in the casper history, but it didn't work reliably and then the config file format changed so I gave up12:44

* apachelogger thinks that a lot of the stuff in workspace can either be done without a patch or upstreamed with a bit of cream on top of it12:45
shadeslayerapachelogger: btw our conversation about kubuntu-manual....12:47
* apachelogger falls over12:47
shadeslayerapachelogger: :P12:48
shadeslayerapachelogger: well like i said,im thinking of starting a project on kubuntu-manual....12:49
persiashadeslayer: That is a lot of work.  Have you considered instead working with the doc team, or working with KDE upstream to write a more generic manual?12:49
shadeslayerpersia: well i wasnt thinking of starting it alone :D12:50
apacheloggershadeslayer: youd need a lot of help12:50
shadeslayerapachelogger: hmm....12:50
apacheloggerquite frankly I am not even sure if upstream would want to start that kind of thing, because if you get that started you need to stick with it and maintain it12:50
shadeslayerapachelogger: ^^ you mean KDE?12:51
apacheloggeryes12:51
apacheloggerand KDE got loads of documenters12:51
shadeslayeryeah i dont think KDE would be interested...12:51
apacheloggeralso, if you want a manual, then you want a good one, so there must be some obvious quality difference between the off-the-shelve ubuntu book and the manual12:52
shadeslayerpersia: anyways half the work is already done for us in the ubuntu manual12:52
shadeslayerpersia: most of it can be just copied with minor changes and used in kubuntu manual12:52
persiaMaybe 20%, but seriously, you'll get more for your effort contributing to the documentation team.12:52
apacheloggershadeslayer: as soon as you make changes to the copies you rob yourself of consistency12:53
apacheloggereither you then manually merge line by line changes, or copy again and risk regressions etc.12:53
apacheloggerit's not like you create a manual once, but it needs constant maintenance12:54
apacheloggersay kubuntu switches dragon player for kaffeine, youd need to rewrite a whole section probably AND change every reference ever made to dragon player12:54
shadeslayer( this is precisely why im discussing it here :P )12:55
apacheloggershadeslayer: everyone is already quite busy as it is :S12:55
apacheloggeralso you want people who work on this and this only12:55
apacheloggermaybe other doc tasks12:55
apacheloggerbut really no one who might get carried away by some bug in kickoff ;)12:56
agateauapachelogger: I sent the fix for flicker to Riddell, I think it is in main now12:58
jussi01apachelogger: on that subject, lets have lancelot already :D12:59
jussi01agateau: just the man I waned12:59
jussi01wanted12:59
* apachelogger has one very strong opinion about lancelot12:59
* agateau is not sure it's a good news12:59
apacheloggeragateau: it never is when jussi01 says that...12:59
agateauthat's what I thought13:00
agateau:)13:00
jussi01agateau: seem that the notifier does strange things when you click ignore, or not now. Im getting apps minimise when I do that.13:00
apacheloggeragateau: still getting the flickers though13:00
jussi01random apps, ie. quassel, chromium13:00
jussi01whatever is focused.13:00
apacheloggeragateau: did I report that the kopete menu takes like one minute to construct the first time?13:00
apacheloggerwell, not that long, but too long13:00
agateaujussi01: what do you mean with "notifier"?13:00
agateaujussi01: the statusnotifieritem ?13:01
agateauor the update notifier13:01
jussi01agateau: ie. when kpackage kit pops aup a message saying "you have 10 updates"13:01
agateauok, update notifier then13:01
jussi01or the one for the restart after updting the kernel13:01
agateaunot sure I am the man you want13:01
apacheloggeragateau: that is not update notifier :P13:01
apacheloggerthat is kpk13:01
jussi01agateau: ScottK said to blame you :P13:02
agateauI never worked on this13:02
ScottKOh, sorry.13:02
agateauScottK: ^ why do you think I should be involved?13:02
apacheloggerScottK didnt dare blaming me :P13:02
* apachelogger thinks that he should go do some bike riding13:02
ScottKI think I thought dbusmenu was misfiring somewhow.13:03
agateauScottK: don't think so, at least not in this case13:03
apacheloggerfor once :P13:03
ScottKagateau: OK.  Sorry for the misdirection.13:03
agateauScottK: no problem13:04
ScottKjussi01: I did get the case to try it and couldn't reproduce it.13:04
jussi01ScottK: hrm13:04
* apachelogger sighs aftrer seein gall the crap bug reports lying around :(13:04
jussi01ScottK: do you have desktop effects running? (I do, and suspect that they may have something to do ith it)13:04
ScottKYes, I did.13:05
jussi01hrm13:05
ScottKIt was netbook though.13:05
jussi01well I am not on the machine now, but Ill bother people again when I get home tonight13:05
jussi01is there anyway for me to test?13:06

Riddellshtylman: there is also bug 556436 which is worrying15:43
ubottuLaunchpad bug 556436 in ubiquity "Kubuntu installer crashes when setting up a Spanish keyboard" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55643615:43
RiddellI managed to fix it using the same unicode workaround we have in other pykde apps but I'm really curious to know why it appears now in ubiquity15:44
shtylmanRiddell: I am not sure either... I couldn't even reproduce it15:44
ScottKTranslations finally fixed enough to manifest the problem?15:44
apachelogger*cough* python *cough*15:45
Riddellshtylman: I think it needs spanish chosen at the boot screen not the ubiquity language page15:46
shtylmanI see15:47
shtylmanalso... we still have that annoying printer config dialog bug15:47
shtylmanwhere it is way too big15:47
macoRiddell: er that doesnt mean it shouldnt work though, right?15:47
Riddellshtylman: what's way too big?15:48
shtylmanthe config dialog15:48
shtylmanfor printer config15:48
Riddellmaco: the utf8 workaround?15:48
shtylmanRiddell: it becomes unusable cause the accept button is way below the bottom of the screen15:48
shtylmanRiddell: note I have a 24" monitor ... so it is probly even worse for others15:49
macoRiddell: choosing a spanish keyboard or locale in ubiquity while running the installer in english should be possible--for example, me installing kubuntu for someone who doesnt speak english and i dont speak enough spanish to do it that way round. so the installer runs in english and the installed system runs in spanish15:50
ScottKapachelogger: utf8 is fully supported in Python3, we just need to upgrade.15:50
Riddellshtylman: screenshot?  (seems fine for me but that UI changes for each printer)15:50
apacheloggerScottK: so lets do it then :D15:50

* rgreening is attempting to wrap the kickoff text between the user pic and the branding logo... lets see if I can break things better than they are :P20:37
lex79JontheEchidna: is it right? http://imagebin.ca/view/WYrwmEL.html20:40
JontheEchidnaum20:40
lex79for now you can only check for updates20:41
JontheEchidnamore like this: http://imagebin.ca/view/74YmlE.html20:41
JontheEchidnago to settings-> plugins and make sure all but the test plugins are enabled20:42
lex79oh, I closed and reopen shaman and now works20:43
JontheEchidna:D20:43
ryanakcaScottK: OK, freeze exception before the sync, or can I include it in the same bug report?20:43
JontheEchidnalex79: does updating the database work? (I'm curious :D)20:47
lex79JontheEchidna: seems so, and kauth works too20:49
JontheEchidnanice20:49
JontheEchidnathe progress bar in the dialog should work, but I've not been able to get the messages to show up in the "details" thing20:50

apacheloggerwell, where in particular21:39
macolike the clock moves farther to the right and the buttons at the bottom move down21:39
macoand that greyed out dropdown is wider21:40
ryanakcaapachelogger: Heh, crappy translation then. What other date and time module is there?21:40
apacheloggerso it looks as funky as here21:40
ryanakcaOh, that one :P21:40
apacheloggerryanakca: the one maco pasted :P21:40

maco(on the timezone tab)21:41
apacheloggermaco: working on that21:41

kdeloggerfor all that do not speak qobjectish: there is something completely missing and thus there is no whatsoever reaction to selecting another time zone ;)21:47
* maco thinks we figured that out by clicking and observing that nothing happens21:48
kdeloggeryou had to click21:48
kdeloggerI just had to read :P21:48

kdeloggerthe datetime kcm creates a QStringList, while the helper that sets the timzeone expects only a QString21:52
macokdelogger: i think the number of people who click "ok" without reading the dialog they're ok'ing are proof that clicking is easier than reading21:52

kdeloggerkubotu: you are not very nice today22:11
kdeloggerRiddell: kdebase-runtime/locale creates timezones4.pot in ../../kdelibs or something, thus we loose timezones 4 COMPLETELY, could you please take a look at fixing this upstreamish?22:11
kdeloggermaybe if dir ../../kdelibs exists do that path, otherwise throw it in here22:12
kdeloggerafter freeze we can patch it I guess22:12

lex79kdelogger: they said me in chakra the splash is blue, we have to fix this gap :D22:29
kdeloggerI would have fixed it if I wouldnt be too scared of breaking openoffice :P22:30

kdeloggermore important matter22:37
kdeloggerapp changes timezone22:37

kdelogger-> app must reload current timezone22:37
kdeloggerproblem: ksystemtimezones gets updated async and does not emit a signal upon changed timezone22:38
JontheEchidna!!22:39
kdeloggeroh, and I musst go through some KDE layer, in order to obtain l10nified content22:39
kdeloggersuggestions anyone?22:39
JontheEchidnaI just realized, software-properties-kde could already use libqapt for updating the package cache22:39
JontheEchidnaAs long as we can get it to call the qaptworker dbus service22:40
JontheEchidnabut I guess python can do dbus fine22:40
* kdelogger rofls22:40
kdeloggerpython and fine22:40
kdeloggerhaha22:40
kdelogger:')22:41
JontheEchidnalol22:41
JontheEchidnakdelogger: so, wanna target the use of libqapt-runtime components for all of our tool's batch operations for 10.10?22:42
JontheEchidnawould make a nice spec for UDS, perhaps22:43
kdeloggerJontheEchidna: aye, if it is convenient enough I am all for it22:44
JontheEchidnabasically all you have to do is invoke an async "updateCache" method via dbus, then connect to workerStarted, workerFinished, and updateProgress signals from dbus22:45
JontheEchidnaand use those signals to make a simplish gui to represent cache reload progress22:45
JontheEchidnathat is for updating the cache, anyways22:46
kdeloggerJontheEchidna: where do those signals go to, come from?22:52
kdeloggerJontheEchidna: http://pastebin.ca/1857378 there, because you did not come up with some cool idea22:54
kdeloggerI hope your eyes start burning from this uglyness :P22:54
JontheEchidnaaiee22:54
JontheEchidnaFor PolicyKit integration, I have made a small helper app that does all the root-needing stuff for libqapt. This app is also an activatable dbus service22:54
JontheEchidnain fact, calling a org.kubuntu.qaptworker will automagically start the service if it's not already started22:55
JontheEchidnathis service will send the signals22:55
JontheEchidnaas well as handle auth, etc22:55
JontheEchidna*calling an org.kubuntu.qaptworker method will automagically start the service22:57
kdeloggerand who/what quits the helper again?22:57
kdeloggerauto idle timeout?22:57
JontheEchidnayeah22:57

kdeloggerthere is my finger ^^22:59
JontheEchidnaIf you use libqapt, its backend can emit Q_SIGNALS so that you don't have to use D-Bus, but it will be perfectly feasible to interface directly with dbus for e.g. python apps (shudder)23:00
kdeloggerand the bike, carelessly lying in the middle of the way23:00
kdeloggerincredibly dangerous I found that23:00
kdeloggerJontheEchidna: I am quite sure there is some mad magic app that can create python bindings of the cpp code23:00
kdeloggerthink smoke23:00
JontheEchidnaI am contemplating switching my GSoC app to be for continuing work on qapt, as I seem to have made quite some progress in the two weeks I've worked on it already23:01
JontheEchidnaplus if somebody can get a single, solitary apt implementation done right, then all that has to be worried about is a GUI, which should be the easy part in comparison23:01
JontheEchidnayou could have your app center, Qt aptitude clone, updater app, notifier icon, debug installer...23:02
* kdelogger shudders about app center23:02
JontheEchidnamayhaps I should blog about this soon23:03

kdeloggerinstead of doing either or, why not do both depending on the context ;)23:03
kdeloggeruser changes clock -> qtimer single shot gets emitted, if the user changes the timezone and applies the changes within one minute than the just configured time is the time of the new timezone ;)23:04
