[01:03] <arand> How can I force apport-cli to use lynx?
[01:08] <mpontillo> arand, I'd try doing: sudo aptitude install lynx-cur && sudo update-alternatives --set www-browser /usr/bin/lynx.cur
[01:30] <arand> mpontillo: cheers I just messed with preferred applications in gnome temporarily.
[01:38] <mpontillo> ah, arand, thought that only changed x-www-browser, not www-browser
[01:38] <mpontillo> (actually the gnome one likely doesn't affect the system-wide alternative, does it?)
[01:40] <arand> mpontillo: actually none of those are set to firefox, which is my default, x- is set to chromium, www- is set to lynx (works in tty as it should), and gnome- isnt' "installed" at all.
[01:41] <mpontillo> arand: huh. so apport doesn't use the alternative, I guess?
[01:42] <arand> mpontillo: apport-cli uses whatever is set in gnome, or www- it seems, and the one set in gnome is independent of all those vars.
[01:45] <mpontillo> arand, I see. the comments in apport-cli state that w3m and lynx do not work, but elinks works. looking at apport/ui.py, there is a somewhat complex bit of logic to select the browser in open_url()
[01:46] <arand> mpontillo: ah, so it explicitly says the don't work.. hmm
[01:50] <mpontillo> right, and it looks like if DISPLAY is not set it will try to use www-browser (whatever that alternative happens to be set to)
[01:54] <arand> Anyhow, seems like elinks works alright, so that's at least an available alternative...

[09:36] <genux> ?
[09:36] <ddecator> nope
[09:36] <genux> I am just wondering.. I have joined the bugsquad team.. is there like a testing bug to test with to see what to do ?
[09:36] <genux> I have read the triage..
[09:36] <genux> btw
[09:37] <ddecator> not really, just take a look at untriaged bugs, find something you're comfortable with doing, and dig in =)
[09:37] <ddecator> usually, it's good to start out by testing bugs to see if you can confirm, looking for duplicates, stuff like that
[09:37] <genux> k cheers.
[09:38] <ddecator> genux: and always feel free to ask questions in here
[09:38] <genux> k cheers.. :).
[09:38] <ddecator> good luck =)
[09:38] <genux> I shall have a look at some of the bugs to see if I can figure it out :).

[10:14] <bbordwell> ddecator, yes, because they wanted it tested on 3.2 which i did

[16:16] <bencrisford> pedro_: how did your indicator applet day go? :)
[16:17] <pedro_> bencrisford, was good a few folks were helping with the triage, what about the edubuntu one?
[16:18] <bencrisford> pedro_: i think it went well :), we had quite a few people participating and even though there's plenty of bugs left, i think it helped show people where we are and how much we need help!
[16:18] <bencrisford> which is an achievement in my opinion :)
[16:18] <pedro_> bencrisford, btw next time you want to run one for an specific package or a project just add it to the planning page so we can coordinate a little bit better ;-)

[16:52] <pedro_> bencrisford, where are you now?
[16:54] <alvin> Maybe someone here knows. Is there a new policy about using UUID for LVM volumes in /etc/fstab in Lucid?
[16:55] <bencrisford> pedro_: UK
[16:55] <alvin> Because I just ended up with mounted snapshots instead of real volumes after the upgrade.
[16:55] <bencrisford> pedro_: im in a brass band and where playing a few concerts in the rhineland
[16:55] <bencrisford> should be fun :)
[16:55] <bencrisford> were*

[23:14] <atrus> bug 498182 is a regression that can make karmic desktops break when they move to lucid, right now ranked "medium" importance. should that be higher since it a) breaks migration, and b) is a regression vs previous releases?

[23:16] <seb128> the issue is not going to change for lucid
[23:16] <atrus> hrm. that's unfortunate.
[23:18] <atrus> what about a warning or something at least? if the applet finds itself on a panel it's incompatible with, it could at least say "hey, this isn't going to do what you expect, move me to an appropriate panel", or something worded slightly more professionally?
[23:31] <mrand> atrus: If it is truly serious and not going to be fixed, it should be considered for the release notes.
[23:31] <atrus> maybe. should it be tagged that way?
[23:37] <mrand> atrus: yeah.  If memory serves, there is a project for it, actually.  Take a look around and see what google turns up.
