godbykOkay, everyone.  I'm setting the manual up on the publishing site and I need a list of keywords (for search purposes).  Feel free to just toss out whatever you can think of.00:06
godbykI swiped the ones daker put on the website and added a couple: Ubuntu Manual, Ubuntu, lucid, lynx, 10.04, lucid lynx, help, documentation, book, pdf, ebook, free, open source00:09
ChrisWoollarduser guide00:13
godbykooh, good one!00:16
humphreybchi all00:17
humphreybcso what should I do, ship to popey?00:17
ChrisWoollardhandbook00:18
godbykThat's entirely up to you.00:18
humphreybcgodbyk: heh "more from the Ubuntu Manual Team:" "Shiny Happy Users"00:18
godbykhumphreybc: lovely.00:19
godbykI s'pose since I published both of them or something.00:19
humphreybcheh00:20
humphreybcChrisWoollard: you live in the UK right?00:20
ChrisWoollardyes00:20
godbykhumphreybc: don't order yet.00:21
godbyklet me double-check a couple things.00:21
humphreybccould you please PM me your address, just so I can plug it in to the cart and see how much shipping in the UK will be?00:21
humphreybcI'm not ordering yet00:21
humphreybcjust seeing how much it will cost me for more than one :)00:21
humphreybcI'll get popey's address later, he'll be asleep now00:21
ChrisWoollardas in postal00:21
humphreybcChrisWoollard: yep that would be good00:21
humphreybcdon't worry I'm not going to send anything to you!00:21
humphreybcI just need a UK address to get to the next checkout screen so I can see prices00:22
godbykinteresting: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/ubuntu-desktop-course---student-guide/5968838?productTrackingContext=product_view/related_items/left/100:22
ChrisWoollardsent00:22
humphreybcgodbyk: 60 bucks!00:23
humphreybcholy moses shipping is expensive00:24
humphreybcchrist I don't even know if I can afford it00:24
humphreybc$48.65 USD for expedited00:24
godbykhumphreybc: yeah, that's why you're not ordering yet.00:25
humphreybcis something going to change?00:25
godbykI need to make sure that's not the only-printed-in-the-US version.00:25
godbykbear with me.. lulu is making things more difficult for me than they should. :)00:25
godbykI have to unpublish this book and go through the whole process again to fix the license.00:26
godbykstupid lulu00:26
godbykhumphreybc: yeah, the cheap-paper edition I linked you to is printed in the US only.00:27
godbykgive me a couple minutes to fix up the real book and we'll see how cheap it is for you to ship00:27
humphreybcI thought cheap paper was also printed in the UK?00:27
godbykhttps://support.lulu.com/View.jsp?procId=e54777c589bdded765014fd54d4b9175&authToken=4164df01beab240156676552dfc16d57&forceLogout=true&locale=en_US00:28
godbykit only ships from the US, it says.00:28
humphreybcmuch, much cheaper to ship that book to the US00:29
humphreybcI plugged in Martin's address in Boston and it's given me $10 for expedited00:29
humphreybcmaybe i should just ship it to Martin, but faster00:30
ChrisWoollardAnyway. I am tired. It is late. Again.... And I need to work tomorrow. Night all.00:31
godbykG'night, ChrisWoollard.00:31
ChrisWoollardHumphreybc: Feel free to sendme stuff ;)00:31
humphreybcWHY DO THEY GET ME TO ENTER IN MY CC DETAILS BEFORE SHOWING ME THE TOTAL COST00:32
ChrisWoollardHmmm. Maybe I will end up with free stuff then.....00:33
humphreybcso it's gonna cost me $44 to get two copies to Martin in Boston, or it would be about $65 to get two copies to Alan in the UK00:33
humphreybcthat's NZD00:33
* humphreybc thinks Mark should just buy me a copy of my own dang book00:34
godbykWhat's it in USD?00:34
humphreybc3200:35
humphreybc32 USD = 44 NZD apparently00:36
godbykwell, that's not so bad for two copies shipped super-quickly.00:37
humphreybcyeah00:37
humphreybcthat's to the US00:37
humphreybcso are you re-uploading?00:37
godbykI think those to links should be okay now.00:38
humphreybccould you link it again, just to make sure00:38
godbykIt wasn't the PDF that was the problem, it was the metadata (specifically, the license was set to a standard copyright instead of the CC license).00:38
godbykI PMed the links to you.00:39
humphreybchuh?00:39
godbykgah.00:39
humphreybcI got that email00:39
godbykI sent them to humphreybc1, apparently.00:39
humphreybcis that what you mean?00:39
humphreybcoh00:39
humphreybcheh00:39
godbykjust a sec00:39
humphreybcno, i'm humphreybc :P00:39
godbykdid you get them this time?00:40
humphreybcyep00:40
godbykHere are PDFs of that Ubuntu Desktop Guide that's on lulu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training/PDFs00:47
humphreybcyeah, i've seen them before00:48
humphreybcthey're old and boring00:48
godbykah00:48
humphreybcHOLY CRAP BATMAN!!! LESS THAN 24 HOURS TILL RELEASE01:26
happyarongodbyk: ping04:23
godbykhappyaron: pong04:23
happyarongodbyk: I just asked people in my team, they suggest wqy-microhei for titles, ukai for text in zh_CN04:23
happyarongodbyk: and prefer to have these fonts embeded to PDF file04:24
godbykCool.  I'll use those, then.04:24
godbykThe fonts will be embedded in the PDF.04:24
happyarongodbyk: wqy-micorhei can be found here http://sourceforge.net/projects/wqy/files/04:26
happyarongodbyk: we prefer to use the latest microhei release because it's still under development04:27
godbykOkay, I'll be sure to grab it from sourceforge then.04:27
happyarongodbyk: and for ukai, it's available in ubuntu's repository04:28
godbykAnd the version of Ukai from the repositories is okay to use?04:28
godbykOr should I download a later version from someplace?04:28
happyarongodbyk: ttf-arphic-ukai package is okay04:29
godbyk'kay.04:30
happyarongodbyk: for English fonts, up to your choice, heh04:30
godbykFair enough. :)04:31
happyaron:)04:33
happyaronanother question, which series we should translate, e1 or e2?04:44
godbykhappyaron: Well, e1 is in a string freeze, so it's stable to translate.04:44
godbykWe're going to start editing e2 next week, so the strings will be changing out from under you all the time.04:45
godbykYou're welcome to translate whichever you prefer, but with e2 you risk having to translate the same paragraph repeatedly as it's edited.04:45
happyarongodbyk: then when will e2 be string freeze?04:46
godbykLet me look.04:46
nisshhgodbyk: are we having a meeting about e2 this week or next week?04:46
nisshhhappyaron: i think e2 will hit string freeze around about june/july04:46
nisshhmost likely june04:47
godbykYeah, I don't see a specific date right off.  I think we're planning to release e2 on July 29.04:47
happyaronok, thx04:47
godbykThe string freeze for Maverick will be on August 20. And the release for Maverick will be Oct 29.04:48
happyaronoh04:48
humphreybcwe're actually cutting it quite close to fit two releases into one cycle04:48
happyaronin fact, we still haven't had an plan for Maverick04:48
godbykI think most of the e2 changes will be bug fixes we didn't have time to get to in e1.04:49
happyaronfor Lucid it's a LTS version, so we'd like to have a good one for it first04:49
godbykSo it may be best to translate e1 and then skip e2 and translate Maverick.  I'm not really sure.04:49
godbykRight.04:49
nisshhso we arent planning on adding in sections like wubi and ubuntu one for e2?04:50
godbykI don't know what all is going into e2.04:50
godbykI haven't put any thought into it yet. I've been focused solely on e1 lately. :-)04:50
nisshhhumphreybc: should we have a meeting soon about e2?04:51
godbykIf someone writes the content for wubi and ubuntu one, we could add it.04:51
nisshhgodbyk: yea, so have we all04:51
humphreybcdon't look at me!04:51
nisshhhmmm, well id like to do some more work on the glossary and my chapter04:51
nisshhfor e2 of course :)04:52
humphreybci think we should gather some data and feedback on this release before we have a meeting to decide what to stick in e204:52
nisshhhumphreybc: so survey?04:52
humphreybcso then we can make informed decisions at the meeting :)04:52
humphreybcyeah, survey, download stats, ra ra ra04:52
nisshhyea, good point04:52
nisshhill have a think about some questions we need to ask then04:52
* nisshh is thinking alot, then going to college soon!04:54
humphreybcgodbyk: how are the german and galician PDFs coming along?04:59
godbykGalician compiled without any problems.04:59
humphreybcnice04:59
godbyk(We also have to make sure the screenshots are all set.)04:59
humphreybcstick it somewhere so we can see04:59
godbykThe German one hates me and I'm trying to figure out why.04:59
* happyaron sorry, a question, how to submit screenshots05:00
godbykhumphreybc: http://builds.ubuntu-manual.org/builds/ubuntu-manual-gl.pdf05:00
* happyaron didn't see any instruction05:01
godbykWhen you have no screenshots, the manual is only 773 Kb. :)05:01
godbykhappyaron: We're using a program called Quickshot to take the screenshots.05:01
humphreybchappyaron: http://ubuntu-manual.org/quickshot05:01
humphreybcgodbyk: howcome there are no screenshots in Galician? yet to add them in?05:01
godbykhumphreybc: right. because they're not in the lucid-e1 branch yet.05:02
happyaronhumphreybc: and it will upload automatically?05:02
godbykhappyaron: Yes, Quickshot will upload the screenshots automatically.05:02
humphreybchappyaron: yup. We wrote it to make it awesome.05:02
happyarongood05:02
happyaronyes05:02
humphreybcgodbyk: wow, the title page looks shit05:02
humphreybcjust the text05:02
humphreybc"Comezar con Ubuntu 10.04"05:02
godbykhumphreybc: yeah, 'cause I'm on karmic.05:03
godbykhumphreybc: and inkscape on karmic sucks.05:03
humphreybcah, okay05:03
godbykhumphreybc: it looks a lot nicer when I compile under lucid.05:03
humphreybcthat is so awesome how it's in Galician.05:03
* humphreybc is beaming05:03
humphreybcget the screenshots in there and compile it under lucid so it looks even better!05:04
godbykI have to wait for one of the quickshot guys to do the screenshot stuff.05:04
godbykI'm going to see if I can get the German one to work.05:04
humphreybcnice05:04
godbykIt's complaining about \acronym{OS~X}.  The tilde is getting mangled somehow.05:04
humphreybcNice, my tweet calling for more followers to reach our 500 followers target on twitter has been re-tweeted 14 times in an hour05:13
humphreybcwe've got 480 followers now05:14
godbykWeird.. the listings package is causing the problem.05:20
godbykWe're not using it right now, so it's not a real problem..05:21
godbykbut I'm going to spend some time investigating it at some point to see what's up.05:21
humphreybchttp://www.facebook.com/events/edit/index.php?eid=116659145028256&step=1#!/event.php?eid=11665914502825605:29
humphreybcI presume when the real website replaces the countdown timer, the nav bar will gain the "Downloads" entry?05:30
humphreybcOr are we not going to use "Downloads" yet since we only have one version05:30
godbykokay, the countdown is not magical.05:31
godbykit has no function other than counting down.05:31
humphreybchuh?05:31
humphreybclol yes05:32
godbyknothing will happen automatically.05:32
humphreybci know05:32
humphreybc:)05:32
godbykokay.05:32
godbykjust making sure. :)05:32
humphreybcbut when it reaches zero we need to have some l33t timing05:32
godbykWell, it'll hit 0 for you before it hits 0 for me.05:32
godbykSo the countdown is kinda silly.05:32
humphreybcthis is true05:32
humphreybchmm05:32
humphreybcoh well05:33
humphreybcwhen it hits zero for me, we should switch it.. coz i'm +12 so i'll be one of the first people for it to hit zero05:33
humphreybcif that makes sense05:33
godbykHey, IlyaHaykinson_. How's it going?07:16
* IlyaHaykinson_ waves to godbyk 07:18
IlyaHaykinson_good07:18
IlyaHaykinson_busy :|07:18
IlyaHaykinson_meeting with my HCI friend on Thu07:18
IlyaHaykinson_re the research project07:19
IlyaHaykinson_how's the lulu thing?07:19
godbykcool07:19
godbykI think I've got Lulu ready to go.07:19
godbykEverything's uploaded.07:19
godbykhumphreybc even ordered a couple copies for himself already.07:19
IlyaHaykinson_way cool07:19
IlyaHaykinson_send me a link, so will I07:19
godbykI'm just waiting a day before I make the catalog entry public.07:19
IlyaHaykinson_heh. at one point, lulu had sued my company.07:21
godbykOh yeah? Over what?07:21
IlyaHaykinson_naming07:21
IlyaHaykinson_i work at Hulu07:21
IlyaHaykinson_;)07:21
godbykHa!07:22
IlyaHaykinson_but, well, we settled that amicably07:22
godbykThat's good to hear.07:22
godbykI'm currently going through the German translation and fixing all the little LaTeX-related typos (so it compiles cleanly).07:23
godbykIt's mindless, and a bit boring.07:23
godbykIlyaHaykinson_: Have you put any thought into what we should try to get done for the second edition?07:24
IlyaHaykinson_is there any way, on the landing page at lulu, to make the title page screenshot have a black border?07:24
IlyaHaykinson_right now it blends into the page07:24
IlyaHaykinson_re lucid-e2, not too much thought beyond the email that i had sent before. but, to some degree, i think some of the research work should help with that.07:25
IlyaHaykinson_i think we certainly have bugs in the manual -- those are easy enough to fix.07:25
godbykI don't think so. It generates that from the wrap-around cover that we upload.07:25
IlyaHaykinson_we also have serious holes in content (things we gloss over, things we omit when we shouldn't by any means)07:26
godbykYeah, I agree with that.07:27
IlyaHaykinson_so i figure mainly it's about "getting to 100%" with what we have07:27
godbykThat's pretty much what I had in mind, too.07:28
ubuntujenkinsmoring all07:28
* IlyaHaykinson_ waves to ubuntujenkins 07:28
IlyaHaykinson_though i think you meant "morning", not "moring"07:29
godbykI'd also like to flesh out the index and glossary.07:29
IlyaHaykinson_unless that's a cross between morning and boring07:29
IlyaHaykinson_?07:29
ubuntujenkinslol i meant morning07:29
IlyaHaykinson_godbyk: yes. i think those are components of "100%" for sure07:29
IlyaHaykinson_ooh.07:30
IlyaHaykinson_hm, i just realized one thing missing from the manual (unless i misremember)07:30
IlyaHaykinson_is a URL to download a copy07:30
godbykIlyaHaykinson_: Check the copyright page.07:30
IlyaHaykinson_i.e. is http://www.ubuntu-manual.org anywhere in the manual?07:30
IlyaHaykinson_oh.07:30
godbykI just added some text to the copyright pages earlier today.07:31
godbykhttp://kevin.godby.org/private/junk/copyright-screen.pdf07:31
godbykhttp://kevin.godby.org/private/junk/copyright-print.pdf07:31
godbyk(I removed the spurious comma after 'and'.)07:31
godbykThere's also a half-title page for the book version and a colophon for both (which lists the typefaces and software we used).07:32
IlyaHaykinson_way to go!07:32
godbykHere's the print version of the PDF: http://files.ubuntu-manual.org/manuals/getting-started-with-ubuntu/10.04/en_US/print/Getting Started with Ubuntu 10.04.pdf07:34
godbyk(with the spaces, you'll have to make it a url yourself. :-))07:34
IlyaHaykinson_hm, interesting. the "Getting Started with OpenOffice.org 3.x" is 442 pages long07:35
godbykYeah, there's also a $60 Ubuntu Desktop Course book.07:36
IlyaHaykinson_the OO.o book is CC-licensed though07:37
IlyaHaykinson_and thus we can reuse content from it07:37
IlyaHaykinson_if we wanted to.07:37
godbykCool.07:37
godbykSo's the one I pointed out.07:38
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: which screenshots do you want as a prority?07:38
godbykubuntujenkins: Hmm.. we should probably just take them in the same order as the translations progress.07:38
godbykSo German and Galician are the top two right now, I think.07:39
IlyaHaykinson_oh. are there any ways to clarify the license on lulu?07:39
godbykThe Galician manual compiles okay (sans screenshots).  The German one has a slew of bugs I'm trying to fix.07:39
IlyaHaykinson_right now it says "standard copyright license" at the bottom07:39
ubuntujenkinshave you uploaded to google?07:39
ubuntujenkins*hulu07:39
IlyaHaykinson_lulu07:39
godbykIlyaHaykinson_: Yeah, that's in error.07:39
godbykIlyaHaykinson_: I manually specified the license as CC-BY-SA 3.0 Unported (because they only had old 2.0 CC licenses).07:40
ubuntujenkinscononical have chnaged the home page AGAIN07:40
godbykIlyaHaykinson_: And I think since it was a 'custom' license, it uses that standard copyright entry or something silly07:40
godbykI may have to email them about it.07:40
IlyaHaykinson_godbyk: i see.07:40
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: can you please remove 04-bluetooth-left-click@es@1272023452.png from the server07:49
godbykubuntujenkins: done07:49
ubuntujenkinsthanks07:50
ubuntujenkinsand this one please godbyk 08-display-properties-confirm@es@1270464688.png07:52

godbykcool07:55
ubuntujenkinsI know the glacien ones are being finished today07:56
godbykAwesome.07:57
godbykI think there's only a couple Galician and a couple German ones left.07:57
ubuntujenkinsboth the harder ones07:57
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: have you uploaded to lulu?07:59
godbykYep.08:00
ubuntujenkinsdam new start page is http://screenshots.ubuntu-manual.org/data/03-ubuntu-start-firefox@gl@1272368086.png08:00
ubuntujenkinsI will fix it in all the screenshots this afternoon. I have lectures most of the morning08:01
godbykThere's a different start page now, too?08:01
godbykYay.08:01
godbykThey should, I dunno, STOP TOUCHING THINGS!08:01
godbyk:)08:01
ubuntujenkinsI shouted about it 10 minutes ago and i agree STOP TOUCHING THINGS08:02
godbykDon't they know we're trying to work here?08:04
godbykHey, thorwil.  lulu didn't complain about your cover at all, so I'm assuming it's all good. :)08:14
thorwilgodbyk: hi, cool08:15
thorwiloh wow, "progress" on the logo front: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Official?action=diff&rev1=50&rev2=5108:24
godbyklol08:24
godbyknice08:24
godbykThey're a day late and a dollar short for this release, though. :)08:25
thorwilgodbyk: if i though they would really think about it, i would have to be insulated by the insistence to not hand out that one asset to me before the guidelines are done. like i rape it somehow08:27
thorwillike i would, even08:27
godbykYeah, I doubt they're giving our project any thought at the moment.08:28

humphreybcgodbyk, screenshots in the Galician manual?09:32
godbykI haven't done anything with screenshots yet.09:32
humphreybcwhat have you done? :P09:32
godbykI don't want to give anyone the impression that it's done, either. :)09:32
humphreybc511 followers on twitter now09:32
godbykWell, I spent a good deal of time fixing all but two of the bugs in the German translation.09:32
godbykI have to do a bit of research to solve the last couple.09:33
godbykWhat've you been up to? :)09:33
godbykcool09:33
humphreybcwent and got fish and chips, ate those with flatmates, had some beers, played some XBOX and started watching Pulp Fiction09:33
godbyksounds like you're not getting much work done. :-P09:34
humphreybcto be totally honest, there doesn't appear to be much work to do09:34
humphreybcwell, i suppose I could start adding stuff to e2 but... meh. later09:34
humphreybc:P09:34
godbykyou could start making a list of things we need to add to e2.09:34
humphreybcI could, yes09:35
godbykalso someone needs to go through the bug spreadsheet and bring it up to date so we know what's left to fix in e2.09:35
humphreybcyea09:35
humphreybcbah!09:35
godbykThere's always plenty of work to do. :-)09:35

DavieyDallas has too much wind!10:49
humphreybcbut it costs an arm and a leg to ship anything to NZ10:49
humphreybcBrussels temp looks similar to what it's like down here10:50
humphreybcpopey: my friend (beer connoisseur) has instructed me that I have to taste this particular beer10:51
humphreybc"Man, you have to try Westvleteren, the 6th and smallest of the Trappist breweries. Incredibly rare beer, 3 styles. http://www.sintsixtus.be/eng/brouwerij.htm Bring me one back if you can!!!"10:52
humphreybchttp://www.sintsixtus.be/eng/brouwerij.htm10:52
humphreybc"The Westvleteren "Trappist" is sold exclusively at the abbey store, and only after having made a reservation by telephone "10:53
humphreybca reservation!?10:53
popeythere's way too much beer in brussels to tie yourself to one10:53
popeyso many options, and many are great10:53
humphreybcI figured that10:53
humphreybcwe'll have to do some pub crawls then10:53
popeyhttp://www.tiac.net/~tjd/bier/belglist.html10:53
humphreybcnice!10:54
popeythere's a few 12% in there10:54
* humphreybc 's pub crawl might end early if he has too many of them10:54
popeypeople tend not to crawl in .be10:55
popeygiven every bar has every beer :)10:55
humphreybc:O10:55
popeypeople tend to find a good spot in one bar and stay there10:55
popeyIME10:55
humphreybcnice10:55
humphreybcshould be good10:55
humphreybcalthough it's a long stumble back to the hotel10:55

popeyya11:05
popeyshould arrange a skype call soon11:05
ubuntujenkinshumphreybc: when you get bored can you do some quickshot mock ups please . I am trying to do the design in glade and it looks bad12:14
thorwilubuntujenkins: don't ever miss with glade unless you know exactly what is supposed to go where already12:15
ubuntujenkinsthorwil: I thought i did but it all looks so bad. works on the power point i did but not in glade.12:16
thorwilubuntujenkins: how does it fail in glade?12:17
ubuntujenkinsit looks no where near as good as i thought it would12:18
humphreybcheh12:20
humphreybcokay Luke, i'll do it next week if I have time12:20
* humphreybc just had a rather alternative/indie style jam session with flatmates12:21
ubuntujenkinsthanks humphreybc also is the wwubi screenshot still  in the manual?12:21
humphreybcnope12:21
humphreybcpsst, everyone, popey's gone... let's have a party!12:27
ubuntujenkinsgalician screenshots complete12:27
zleaphi12:38
ubuntujenkinshello zleap12:38
ubuntujenkinshello sebsebseb12:38
zleapjust joined12:38
zleapwould the following be useful for the manual12:38
zleaphttp://www.zleap.net/portfolio.php12:38
zleapjoe text editor command reference12:38
ubuntujenkinspossibly to advanced for the manual at the moment. I can't remember if we mention gedit even. What would you like to help with?12:40
sebsebsebubuntujenkins: I just refered zleap from #ubuntu12:41
ubuntujenkinsthnaks sebsebseb I better join the channel and an ubunt manaul as highlighting12:42
sebsebsebubuntujenkins: what  was that?12:42
zleapnot sure, when its out I will see if i can put something in,12:42
zleapor contribute ideas / screen shots etc12:42
sebsebsebreally there should be a factoid in ubottu for the manual, and also that makes it clear that it's from Canonical I guess :)12:43
sebsebsebwell jussi for example could sort that out12:43
ubuntujenkinswhen i ping you your irc client flashes. when someone mentions quickshot my irc client flashes12:43
ubuntujenkinszleap: let me find you a link12:43
jussigrumble12:43
zleapk12:43
sebsebsebjussi: uh I typed that wrong12:43
sebsebsebjussi: makes it clear, that it's not from Canonical12:44
zleapi have a copy here its beta,12:44
jussisebsebseb: you know the drill, suggest the factoid aas norma and we will evaluate it..12:44
zleap]what does "factoid ass norma" mean?12:44
sebsebsebjussi: I don't bother with factoid  suggestion stuff in pm with ubottu  or however it's offically meant to be done.  I may suggest to an op about this and that factoid at the time.  Anyway I guess the manual factoid someone that ideally has contributed quite a bit to this project should come up with, so that's not me.12:45
sebsebsebjussi: why got rid of the 01 by the way in your IRC nick?12:46
jussisebsebseb: thats the way we do factoids...12:46
jussisebsebseb: My name is jussi...12:46
jussi;)12:46
sebsebsebjussi: yes, but you had 01 in your nick as well12:46
sebsebsebbefore12:47
jussisebsebseb: this nick finally became available. but its offtopic for here. moving on.12:47
sebsebseb!ot12:47
manualbotBest to keep this channel mainly on topic!12:47
sebsebsebjussi: yeah yeah, and I come up with that factoid  suggestion for this channel :)12:47
ubuntujenkinshello sebsebseb12:50
ubuntujenkinshello semioticrobotic12:51
ubuntujenkinssorry sebsebseb wrong person12:51
sebsebsebubuntujenkins: np12:52

semioticrobotichi ubuntujenkins12:56
semioticrobotichow are things?12:56
semioticroboticwooo!  one more day!13:01
ubuntujenkinsI am good semioticrobotic you?13:22
semioticroboticnot bad at all13:22
semioticroboticlooking forward to tomorrow's release13:22
ubuntujenkinsits going to be exciting :)13:23
semioticroboticI won't be able to perform an upgrade for several days (too much going on at school), but I am excited13:24
ubuntujenkinsupgrades are always painful if stuff breaks. i like clean installs. A seperate home always help13:25
semioticroboticyeah.  I never do anything but a clean install13:25
semioticroboticsaves more time, in the long run, than upgrading and trying to tweak13:25
semioticroboticthis is the first time I've had to migrate keypairs, however, so I'm trying to discern th best way to do that13:26
semioticroboticlooks like the command line is the easiest way13:26
semioticroboticgiven what I've read and what others have graciously told me13:26
ubuntujenkinsyou will have to tell me how you do on that keys have been a pain for me13:26
semioticroboticnot looking forward to it13:27
semioticroboticbut I'll be sure to report my success (or failure) after the install13:27
semioticrobotichate to run, but a few of my students are shooting a video on he impending zombie apocalypse, and they've asked me to play a small role ... time for filming13:27
semioticroboticheh13:28
semioticroboticshould be fun13:28
semioticrobotichope you have a great day, ubuntujenkins.13:28
ubuntujenkinsand you semioticrobotic have fun filming/acting13:28
* ubuntujenkins omg texlive svn branch has finished, it only took 36 hours to download 7.0 GB13:33
ubuntujenkinsanyone good with perl?14:05
humphreybcha!14:06
humphreybcno14:06
humphreybc:P14:06
ChrisWoollardwhat do you need14:06
ubuntujenkinsdon't ha I am trying to build texlive packages14:06
ChrisWoollardi have been know to do a little14:07
ubuntujenkinsChrisWoollard: I wil just paste bin some stuff14:07
humphreybcubuntujenkins: really, what for?14:07
ubuntujenkinsus!14:07
humphreybcfor....?14:07
ubuntujenkinsso people can use appa and not the texlive way14:08
ubuntujenkinsChrisWoollard: running this script http://paste.ubuntu.com/423980/ i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/423981/ this is the change log http://paste.ubuntu.com/423979/14:09
ubuntujenkinsignore the first two lines even with out those there it fails the same.14:10
ubuntujenkinsof the change log14:10
ubuntujenkinsthe strange thing is if i empty the changelog then the script works14:16
ChrisWoollardhmmm14:19
ubuntujenkinssorry proably a bit complex for irc14:19
ChrisWoollardI think that makes sense14:20
ubuntujenkinswhat is it testing for in the change log file?14:20
ChrisWoollardif the file is empty I don't think it would parse the foreach on line 16414:20
ubuntujenkinsIf i have an empty change log does that mean some of the script doesn't run?14:22
ubuntujenkinsie do i lose anything important14:22
ChrisWoollardi think that if the log file is empty lines 164 through to 178 wouldn't run14:23
ChrisWoollardI am thinking that there is probably a problem with the regex on 16914:24
ChrisWoollardwhich is probably why it is erroring14:24
ChrisWoollardI do have to say that regex's are a bugger at times14:25
ubuntujenkinsthose lines don't appear to do anything at least as far as i can tell.14:25
ChrisWoollardnot much. looks like a big of error checking14:26
ubuntujenkinsgood good thanks for looking. now i have to work out how to generate a package to test14:27
thorwilhumphreybc, godbyk: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/VisualIdentity . the orange is another and the geometry of the CoC has been changed. i don't intend to adjust our titlepage, as i prefer to keep internal consistency. after all, they didn't manage to keep the stuff already in lucid in snyc themselves, from what i have been told.14:30
thorwilgone for garden work and cycling, bbl14:30
ChrisWoollardIt looks like it is pretty much just checking for the correct dists and that is the only real useful bit.14:31
ChrisWoollardbut that wouldn't stop it working14:31
ChrisWoollardif it isn't there14:31
ChrisWoollardyou would just have t be careful what it is run against14:31
ubuntujenkinsI will probably try and get that stuff correct if these packages achive what we want. untill then i think a balnk change log is ok. thanks for you help14:32
ChrisWoollardnp14:33
nisshhdoes anyone here use identi.ca?14:48
dutchiehi all18:30
ChrisWoollardHello18:33
ubuntujenkinshello all18:49
hemanthhi ubuntujenkins :)18:49
ubuntujenkinsjust the person I have a question let me find the link18:50
hemanthhmm?18:50
ubuntujenkinshemanth: if you look at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~quickshotdevs/quickshot/quickshot/revision/238 and view the diff of the bottom file. Did you change that? or was it done automatically by quickly? I don't mind either way i was just interested.18:51
hemanthubuntujenkins, checking it out, page still loading18:52
hemanthubuntujenkins, its done by quickly, cos as you knew i was just working on the file in the bin dir18:53
ubuntujenkinshemanth:thats what i thought, quickly broke it. the change was wrong what version are you using?18:54
hemanthubuntujenkins, now Quickly 0.4.218:55
hemanth, then it was Quickly 0.4.118:55
ubuntujenkinsstrange, don't worry we will just have to keep an eye on what gets changed.18:55
hemanthokies, what is the next thinge that is planned b4 we hit the next millstone?18:56
ubuntujenkinswe need to get the gui design going i have made a start but. Its not going well so i have asked ben to do some mock ups. It doesn't look right in comparison with the power point i did18:58
ubuntujenkinsfeel free to set up your own branch and have ago. Thats what i have done18:59
hemanthubuntujenkins, sure, sorry for the delay the notification is not working19:23
ubuntujenkinshemanth: no problem19:23

ubuntujenkinswhy are you looking at it?20:24
dutchiefor the bug form20:24
ubuntujenkinsooo yea good luck bet its not as hard as packaging texlive20:24
dutchieheh20:25
* ubuntujenkins finishes correcting all the firefox homepages again. Thanks to cononical for that job21:14
godbykHey, ubuntujenkins. I'm back now. Sorry for the delay. Got distracted.21:15
godbykIs it worth me taking the time to recompile the PDFs (for print and screen) with the new homepage?21:16
godbykWe've got, what, less than two hours until release? :)21:17
ubuntujenkinshey godbyk, I have just updated please do if we have time21:17
godbyk'kay.21:17
godbykI guess it's nearly four hours to go.21:17
ubuntujenkinsalso can you make lucid-e1 work again i can't compile it. All of the translated screenshots are also ok21:17
dutchiehmm, maybe i need openid instead of oauth21:18
dutchieTHIS IS TOO CONFUSING :(21:18
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: http://paste.ubuntu.com/424201/ is the error21:18
ubuntujenkinsalso I have some info on the texlive packages21:19
ubuntujenkinswhen you finish the mountain of stuff i have just suggested :)21:19
godbykubuntujenkins: Ah, I think I added thorwil's new title pages to just my branch and not the main branch. I'll look into it.21:19
godbykHeh.21:19
godbykFeel free to info-dump, if you like.21:19
godbykI'll be with you in about 5-10 minutes after I finish recompiling the PDFs.21:19
godbykI noticed that Canonical came out with the new branding guidelines today, too.21:20
godbykToo bad we needed them yesterday (literally).21:20
dutchieno, it's definitely oauth21:20
ubuntujenkinsthis is the most important one http://paste.ubuntu.com/424182/ and this i think tells us what is in the packages http://paste.ubuntu.com/424174/ or at least i think ( godbyk )21:20
* ubuntujenkins canonical can't make their mind up at all21:21
c7phello21:25

c7pthe theme made things complicated21:35
c7pthx21:35
ubuntujenkinssorry how did it make it complicated21:36
ubuntujenkinsdid i mess your computer up?21:36
c7pno21:36
c7pi used the dust theme21:36
ubuntujenkinsare ok panic over :)21:36
c7pand that caused the "bug"21:37
c7pnow that i changed to the default theme, the buttons are on the right place21:37
ubuntujenkinsyey \0/21:38
godbyklulu book updated21:38
godbykuploading PDFs to our site now21:38
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: wow i didn't expect lulu as well21:38
godbykI just had to upload the new PDF to their site and run through their wizard again.21:39
godbykUnfortunately, each time I do that, it changes the URL (as it's a new 'revision' of the book).21:39
godbykSo then I have to add that new URL to the copyright page of the on-screen version.21:39
godbyk(I should've just left it as 'find the book at lulu.com' instead of giving the full URL)21:40
ubuntujenkinsis it public I would like to work out the uk cost21:40
godbykit's not listed in the catalog yet, but I can send you the direct link.21:40
godbykone moment.21:40
dutchieI didn't expect that to work :(21:45
ubuntujenkinsdutchie: have you looked at ground control for hints21:45
dutchieooh, good idea21:45
godbykubuntujenkins: I'm adding those title pages to the repository.21:45
godbyk(It's set to ignore the .pdf files in the titlepages/ dir, so that's why they weren't added previously.)21:46
godbykubuntujenkins: they should be in the repo now.21:46
godbyklet me know if you have any other problems compiling.21:46
godbykI guess I'll grab the latest code for the website and see if I can make sense of it.21:47
ubuntujenkinsthnaks godbyk compiles fine.21:47
godbykgreat21:52
ubuntujenkinsI am now going to try with the latest ubuntu packages. once i have removed texlive21:52
ubuntujenkinsI still can't build them my self yet. but i thought i would work out what is missing before i mail the mailing list21:53
godbyksounds like a plan21:54
ubuntujenkinsits no good if its a licence issue. The read me on making them is really good but some stuff is outdated. ie it talks about scripts that don't exists21:55
ubuntujenkinsi have another question godbyk, what lanaguge is this in http://paste.ubuntu.com/424223/21:57
dutchieit's a Makefile21:57
godbykubuntujenkins: It's a Makefile.21:57
godbykSo you'd run 'make target', where 'target' is one of those words that starts at the beginning of the line and ends in a colon.21:58
godbyk(if you use bash, just type 'make <Tab>' and it'll autocomplete to show you the possibilities)21:58
ubuntujenkinsdoh! ok this may make sense21:58
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: just found daker on facebook22:12
godbykcool.  is he going to come into the irc channel?22:13
ubuntujenkinshe should be on in the sec22:13
godbykk22:13
c7pgodbyk, the /ie and /eg abbreviations, should be translated ? (for example,  /eg --(translation)-> word)22:13
godbykc7p: There are two options for \ie and \eg.22:13
godbyk1. You can email me the proper translations, and I'll make \ie and \eg spit out that translation (in which case you can leave the \ie and \eg commands as is).22:14
dakerhi22:14
godbyk2. You can remove the \ie and \eg commands and replace them with their translations.22:14
godbykHey, daker!22:14
dakerwhat's up ?22:14
c7phm let me see the .po file22:14
godbykdaker: I wanted to see where we were at with the website and see if you needed any help with anything.22:15
godbykdaker: We're going to switch off the countdown timer and use the real site in just under 3 hours (at 0000 UTC).22:15
godbykSo I wanted to make sure everything was ready to go.22:16
dakerwhat !!!!!22:16
daker3hours22:16
godbykYep.22:16
godbykIt'll be 29 April (UTC) then.22:16
dakeri thought that still 13hours :)22:17
godbykAh, I'm afraid not. :)22:17
godbykI've set up the database tables that you sent me.  And the PDFs are uploaded.22:19
dakeroki22:19
godbykdaker: If there's anything I can do to help, tell me.22:20
godbykI think I've got everything on my end finished, so I'm free to help.22:20
dakeroki thanks22:21
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: did you look at the links on the texlive files i sent?22:21
ubuntujenkins(pastebins)22:21
godbykubuntujenkins: what? where?22:22
ubuntujenkinsthis is the most important one http://paste.ubuntu.com/424182/ and this i think tells us what is in the packages http://paste.ubuntu.com/424174/ or at least i think ( godbyk )22:22
ubuntujenkinsthe first one is about what isn't in the packages22:22
c7pgodbyk: i sent you an email with the translation of the abbreviations, check it when you have time.22:22
godbykc7p: sure.  As soon as I get it, I'll set the translations in the branch for you.  You can then use \ie and \eg as-is.22:23
c7pgodbyk, ok thank you22:23
dakergodbyk, change the autoupdate to 5min22:25
godbykdaker: ok22:25
godbykdaker: I set it to 5 minutes.22:26
dakergodbyk, if you change the informations in a file it will be erased when i push ?22:27
godbykdaker: I'm not sure I'm following. Can you rephrase the question?22:29
* ubuntujenkins oo the channel is getting more people22:29
dakerjust a minute, because i am reinstalling lucid from zero22:30
dakernrn22:33
dakerbrb22:33
dakergodbyk, what about lulu.co link ?22:41
godbykdaker: I've got that.22:41
godbykJust a sec and I'll send it to you22:41
godbykubuntujenkins: So for the first link you gave me, I think all of that's okay.22:49
ubuntujenkinsso none of the missing stuff is needed?22:49
godbykubuntujenkins: The original problem we had was that the version of polyglossia we needed didn't work with the packaged version of XeTeX (as it wasn't new enough).22:50
godbyknope.22:50
godbykmost of it's not really missing, just packaged different.22:50
godbykdifferently.22:50
godbykand the stuff that is missing, we're not using.22:50
ubuntujenkinsthats a good sign22:50
godbykCheck to see that the polyglossia package is in the Ubuntu packages.. I think that may not have been in the 2007 version. I don't know if it was in 2009 now or not.22:51
godbyk(It's been a few months.)22:51
ubuntujenkinsI will when it finishes installing22:52
godbykk22:52
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: running with the latest packages i get ! LaTeX Error: File `ccicons.sty' not found. . I can't work out what version of polyglossia is in use its not in its own packages22:59
godbykaha22:59
godbykyeah, they didn't have ccicons packaged either.22:59
godbykso that's a package that's missing.23:00
godbykit's pretty new.23:00
ubuntujenkinsok how can i install just that using the script?23:00
godbykif you look in the .log file, and search for polyglossia, it should tell you the version, fwiw.23:00
godbykI don't think the script installs ccicons anymore.23:00
godbykubuntujenkins: but if you go to ctan.org/pkg/ccicons23:00
godbykyou can download a zip file23:00
godbykhmm.. actually, that may be slightly painful.23:01
godbykthe old install-pkgs.sh script installed it for you. if you look at the bzr history, you can find a copy. :)23:01
ubuntujenkinsare ok. will do also wheres the .log file i need to look in?23:02
godbykwherever you tried to compile from.23:02
ubuntujenkinsI used synaptic23:02
godbykwhat is it that said ccicons.sty not found?23:03
ubuntujenkinsno make said that. I am looking for the log to find the the polyglossia version23:04
godbykright.23:05
godbykso in the directiory from which you ran make should be a .log file.23:05
godbykmain.log if you ran make with no arguments.23:06
godbykthat's basically the full log of all the output xelatex gives you when it runs.23:06
ubuntujenkinsare right got it23:06
c7pnight all23:12
ubuntujenkinsnight c7p23:12
ubuntujenkinsam i going mad godbyk ?23:13
godbykubuntujenkins: ah, I see.23:13
godbykubuntujenkins: polyglossia is loaded after ccicons.23:13
godbykso since it's dying on ccicons, it's not getting to polyglossia.23:13
godbykif you hit Enter to continue past the ccicons error, it should continue to compile, though.23:13
godbykor you can comment out the \RequirePackage{ccicons} line in ubuntu-manual.cls temporarily.23:14
ubuntujenkinsok well i can't install ccions using the script so i have scipt it23:14
ubuntujenkinsthe next error is http://paste.ubuntu.com/424256/23:15
ubuntujenkinsthe install-script.log is http://paste.ubuntu.com/424257/23:17
godbykright, that error is because you commented out the ccicons line -- it doesn't know what the \ccbysa command means.23:19
godbykubuntujenkins: does 'which xindy' return anything?23:19
godbykif not, then xindy may not be in the packages either.23:20
godbykit's used to generate the glossary and index.23:20
ubuntujenkinsdutchie: I see you asked in #launchpad have you tried #launchpad-dev23:20
dutchiethumper said it was the Right Channel23:20
godbykalso see if 'makeglossaries' returns anything.  if not, it means the glossaries stuff isn't in the packages.23:20
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: can we try and work out why i can't install ccicons23:20
dutchieI think #launchpad-dev is for developing LP itself23:20
godbyksure.23:20
ubuntujenkinsdutchie: true just a thought. tried doctormo himself he is around in #ubuntu-app-devel23:21
thumper?23:22
thumperwhazzup?23:22
godbykubuntujenkins: edit the install-pkgs.sh file.23:23
godbykubuntujenkins: search for 'Main loop'23:23
godbykimmediately after that comment, add:23:23
godbykinstall_ccicons23:23
godbykexit 023:23
ubuntujenkinsI think dutchie was mentioning you in passing thumper he is trying to sort out oauth/openid23:23
thumperdutchie: #launchpad-dev is for launchpad developers23:23
godbykand then you can run the ./install-pkgs.sh script to install the ccicons package23:23
ubuntujenkinsok godbyk I will give it ago23:24
thumperdutchie: whether they be canonical people or other23:24
dutchieso should I ask my question in there?23:24
thumperdutchie: what type of questions?23:25
* ubuntujenkins runs make23:26
dutchie22:14:49 < dutchie> what I want to do is write a custom bug form for the ubuntu manual project. the bit I'm having trouble  with is authenticating into LP to actually report the bug. I think the main problem is my complete lack of  understanding of oauth/openid23:26
thumperdutchie: if it has to do with open id then the guy to ping is salgado23:26
thumperwhat do you mean by custom bug form?23:26
dutchiehttps://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/+spec/custom-bug-form23:26
thumperdutchie: if it is from your website, then you just need to have saved credentials for the user that the server is using23:27
thumperdutchie: you probably want the bugs to be registered by someone one the manual team on behalf of the form submitter23:28
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: it runs to the end and i get a 158 page manual but i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/424260/23:28
thumperdutchie: so the form submitter doesn't need to have a login23:28
thumperdutchie: does that sound reasonable to you?23:28
dutchiethumper: it does23:28
thumperdutchie: ok, launchpadlib allows the saving of credentials23:28
ubuntujenkinsbut they don't get karma23:28
thumperdutchie: you have your script that files the bug to load those credentials23:29
thumperdutchie: then submit the bug23:29
dutchiethumper: I was originally going for having the user sign in with their own LP credentials23:29
thumperubuntujenkins: who doesn't?23:29
ubuntujenkinsthe original submitter23:29
thumperdutchie: harder23:29
dutchieyeah23:29
thumperubuntujenkins: you are right23:29
ubuntujenkinsIt would be nice if they could.23:30
thumperdutchie: the oauth redirect and token acceptance is what would be required23:30
godbykubuntujenkins: yeah, it needs xindy to generate the glossary and index.23:30
godbykand before, the install-pkgs.sh script said it couldn't find xindy.23:30
dutchiethumper: so where would I redirect to?23:30
thumperubuntujenkins: what if your users don't have a lp login?23:30
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk:  right so we are missing xindy and ccicons23:30
dutchieI could just have an optional LP-id field23:31
dutchiebest of both worlds23:31
ubuntujenkinsthumper: true we should give them a i don't have a launchpad account button23:31
godbykubuntujenkins: so far. :)23:31
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: how do i install xindy then?23:31
thumperdutchie: except that you either use LP or launchpadlib to file a bug23:31
thumperdutchie: and to file a but for someone else you'd need their credentials, or a token which gives you write permission23:32
godbykubuntujenkins: http://ctan.org/pkg/xindy23:32
thumperdutchie: personally I think that's bad23:32
godbykubuntujenkins: you can grab a tarball here: http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/indexing/xindy/23:32
dutchiethumper: why?23:32
thumperdutchie: karma isn't so important as filing a useful bug23:32
thumperdutchie: I'm not going to authorize a token your site can use to write stuff as me23:32
thumperdutchie: I'm sure there are many who think like that23:33
dutchiefair enough23:33
thumperif you want a custom form, I suggest you have one user who the bugs are filed as23:33
dutchiesurely there isn't much harm in making it optional though?23:33
thumperthat user saves launchpadlib credentials23:33
ubuntujenkinsgodbyk: xindy-kernel-3.0 right. don't want to do it all twice23:33
thumperdutchie: I'm not sure how easy it is to implement23:33
godbykubuntujenkins: the one I have installed is:23:34
godbyk$ xindy --version23:34
godbykxindy release: unknown23:34
godbykxindy script version: 1.1323:34
godbykxindy kernel version: 2.323:34
godbykxindy run time engine: x86_64-linux-gnu, version 2.223:34
godbykCLISP version 2.48 (2009-07-28) (built on pcl321.mppmu.mpg.de [134.107.3.54])23:34
godbyk    architecture: X86_6423:34
dutchiewouldn't be too hard, if I could get the oauth thing working23:34
godbykthat's what texlive-2009 shipped with.23:34
ubuntujenkinsok thanks godbyk i will use 2.323:34
dutchiewe could use the UMP persona for this :)23:36
ubuntujenkinsdutchie: I was thinking more ubuntu-manual-bug but yea we could23:36
dutchieheh23:37
dutchieI'll slepp on it, I think23:37
dutchienight23:37
godbykdutchie: not gonna hang around for the launch?23:37
ubuntujenkinsnight dutchie23:37
dakergood night dutchie23:39
ChrisWoollardnight all23:41
ubuntujenkinsnight ChrisWoollard23:41
dakernight ChrisWoollard23:41
ubuntujenkinshehe godbyk I like to be difficult it make for xindy fails http://paste.ubuntu.com/424266/ . I don't compile form source much. I am right in thinking that its because i am 64 bit?23:43
godbykIt looks like maybe a test failed or something. it's hard to tell from that log.  anything useful in the minitests.out file?23:47
ubuntujenkinsthere is no file of that name23:48
godbyklet me try to compile it here. see if I get the same thing.23:49
ubuntujenkinsthe web site says there is 12 hour 10 mins to go23:49
ubuntujenkinskk23:50
godbykubuntujenkins: yeah, I think it's 1. counting toward noon instead of 00:01 UTC, and 2. using your local time zone.23:50
ubuntujenkinsare makes sense23:50
godbykubuntujenkins: did you just run ./configure and then make?23:51
ubuntujenkinsyes23:51
godbykany special args I need to specify?23:51
ubuntujenkinsnot as far as i know23:51
godbyk'kay. running make now.23:51
dakergodbyk, ubuntujenkins the countdown is set to 29 april 12:0023:52
ubuntujenkinsI see daker23:52
dakernot 29 april 00:0023:52
ubuntujenkinsand it uses local time as apparently we have 8 mins to go but that should be 1 hour 823:53
godbykubuntujenkins: you'll be pleased to know that I got the same error compiling.23:53
godbyklet me poke around and see what it's doing23:53
ubuntujenkinsnot just me for once23:54
dakerare you sure it merges ?23:54
ubuntujenkinscurrent time for me daker http://imagebin.org/94879 note the clock in the top23:55
dakerubuntujenkins, you are in GMT ?23:56
dakergodbyk, are you sure it merges ?23:56
ubuntujenkinsdaker:  nope bst23:56
godbykdaker: lemme check23:57
godbykdaker: ah, it failed to merge.23:57
godbyklemme fix it real quick.23:57
godbykmaybe we should put the db connection stuff into a config-db.php file and include('config-db.php') in config.php?23:57
godbykthen we won't have conflicts if you edit config.php23:58
