[06:47] <ara> good morning!
[10:40] <ara> morning primes2h
[10:47] <primes2h> morning ara :-)
[10:57] <davmor2> morning all
[11:05] <sp> morning
[11:05] <sp> I just did my daily upgrade, which caused a partial upgrade for me and removed both gnome and gnome-compiz
[11:06] <sp> now the story is that desktop effects were disabled and upon logging out, logging on again and trying to enable effects again Appearance Properties seems to have crashed
[11:06] <sp> well, not actually crashed, it's just not responding after clicking 'keep settings' in the dialog with the same name
[11:07] <sp> I haven't followed development closely, but I am not sure about whether both compiz and compiz-gnome should have been removed in the first place... could someone give me insight on that before I file a bug report?
[11:14] <sp> mhh... seems like metacity breaks on compiz-gnome < 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu14, where ubuntu13 is my current candidate, so nevermind :)
[11:29] <ara> sp, there's one
[11:29] <ara> sp, let me check
[11:29] <ara> sp, https://launchpad.net/bugs/559054
[11:29] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 559054 in compiz (Ubuntu) "compiz-gnome needs to be removed during partial upgrade (affects: 2) (heat: 14)" [Medium,New]
[11:29] <sp> ara: thanks
[11:30] <ara> sp, can you please confirm the issue?
[11:31] <ara> sp, and can you complete the report with the apt logs and/our output, please?
[11:32] <sp> ara: well, it's quite obvious, compiz and compiz-gnome got removed due to a Breaks: in metacity
[11:32] <sp> the actual bug seems to be in Appearance Properties, which only checks for /usr/bin/compiz to be installed before allowing to enable desktop effects
[11:32] <ara> sp, yes, but it will be nice to have the version numbers :)
[11:33] <ara> sp, rather than something like "newest metacity"
[11:33] <ara> sp, which vary along the way :)
[11:33] <sp> unfortunately, that alone is not enough... filed a bug report against gnome-control-center (LP:559106).
[11:33] <sp> ara: ok, I will update the bug report accordingly
[11:33] <ara> sp, thanks
[11:34] <ara> bug 559106
[11:34] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 559106 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "Appearance Properties hangs on Keep Settings dialog without compiz(-gnome) installed (affects: 1)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/559106
[11:39] <davmor2> ara: added extra info
[11:43] <sp> same here, attached extra info + relevant portions of apt.log
[11:44] <sp> anyways, compiz 1:0.8.4-0ubuntu14 (and 0ubuntu15) seems to have been uploaded/built already, so this should fix itself once that hits the archive
[11:45] <ara> apparently is transitional
[11:45] <ara> compiz needs to be compiled
[11:46] <ara> and it is being compiled now
[11:46] <sp> at least that way we found that bug in Appearance Properties :)
[11:46] <ara> :)
[11:51] <jpds> sp: It's hitting the archive for i386 now.
[11:55] <sp> jpds: ok, great
[11:55] <sp> I'm looking into fixing the bug in Appearance Properties
[11:55] <sp> checking for the existance of /usr/share/doc/compiz and /usr/share/doc/compiz-gnome should be enough, any objections?
[12:07] <jpds> sp: amd64 puslishing now and will be on mirrors with the hour.
[12:08] <sp> again, great... I'm just building gnome-control-center and will test it in a few minutes
[12:09] <sp> oh, I implemented the check as I mentioned before, due to lack of any objections :)
[12:20] <sp> just pushed my bugfix branch, available from lp:~speijnik/gnome-control-center/bug-559106 (also linked it against the bug report and created merge proposal for lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu)
[12:28] <sp> mhhh... now effects are enabled but gnome-appearance-properties still hangs
[13:46] <davmor2> morning fader_ cr3
[13:46] <fader_> davmor2: Hey dude
