pittislomo: I tried vala-gen-introspect, but I didn't even get that to work; produces 0-byte output and crashes08:15
pittivish: perhaps try poking cjwatson/slangasek?08:15
pittivish: I'll try to have a look, but I can only spend very limited hours on SRUs this cycle08:15
didrocksgood morning pitti08:17
baptistemmI packaged bluez 4.66 and obexd 0.27 for who concerned, but I guess I need james_w has to merge the code first08:18

james_whi baptistemm08:19
james_wany developer can do it, it doesn't have to be me08:19
baptistemmhi james_w, ah Okay, I thought you were managing that as the merge recipient is you08:20
vishpitti: oh , ok. they seemed a bit busy .. and you had already seen the branch when you approved the lucid task, so thought it might be easier for you..  i'll wait then  :)08:21
baptistemmso anyone willing to, you can merge https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~bluetooth/ubuntu/maverick/obexd/main and https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~bluetooth/ubuntu/maverick/bluez/main :)08:21

didrockshum, last version of libappindicator0.0-cil broke banshee indicator09:33
seb128didrocks, right, they were discussing the 0 or 1 abi before weekend09:36
seb128didrocks, check with kenvandine or ted when they will be there09:36
didrocksseb128: sure, I will, I have also another thing to discuss with ted about the python binding (some function not working). That will be his day :)09:36
didrocksdo you think I should write a page for banshee evaluation for default in UNE or just discuss that in the meeting? (I have some TODO and WI list)09:37
seb128would be nice to do a summary of what you noted09:40
seb128could be worth sending to the ubuntu-desktop mailing list09:40
seb128seems better than a wiki to discuss09:40
seb128or start with the meeting tomorrow09:40

seb128milanbv, hi, thanks for not trolling on upstream lists10:17
seb128milanbv, we already have enough discussion about what Ubuntu does or not without that10:17
milanbvseb128: sorry, but I don't think that's trolling :-)10:21
=== artnay_ is now known as artnay
seb128milanbv, so you think porting firefox and openoffice to gtk3 is trivial?10:21
milanbvwhy doesn't an Ubuntu dev clearly explain what's the problem with GTK+3 on desktop-devel?10:21
seb128and chromium10:21
seb128milanbv, I'm going to10:21
milanbvah, here's a point - but I had never heard it before10:22
milanbvcool :-)10:22
seb128this discussion started before weekend10:22
seb128and I don't work on weekends10:22
seb128I'm just starting my week10:22
seb128milanbv, the issue in short is that we need to duplicate the stack10:22
seb128ie every lib using gtk needs 2 build10:22
seb128a gtk2 and a gtk3 one10:22
milanbvyeah, that I understand10:22
seb128it's lot of work10:22
seb128and we have no CD space for 2 stacks10:23
seb128and we will not port firefox this cycle10:23
seb128you can't change firefox without mozilla ack anyway10:23
milanbvbut are you sure porting Firefox and OO.o is so much work?10:23
milanbvI've no idea about that, but usually it's not that hard10:23
milanbveven if their codebases are evil ;-)10:23
seb128mozilla doesn't let firefox to be changed without them approving the change10:23
seb128to start with10:23
seb128and I doubt they will allow such changes in a distribution10:24
milanbvthough I doubt they would refuses patches for that...10:24
seb128I doubt they will want to switch to gtk310:24
seb128they don't have 2 codecases10:24
seb128and most of their users are on gtk2 systems10:24
seb128what would they win?10:24
milanbvno idea, but that's definitely something to discuss with GNOME, because verybody is affected10:25
milanbvthey wouldn't win much, but anyway they'll have to switch10:25
seb128not so sure10:26
seb128gtk2 will be around for a while10:26
seb128ie years10:26
seb128they have no hurry to switch10:26
milanbvyeah, but Linux distribs aren't going to use a GTK2 firefox for ages10:27
seb128I'm pretty sure no distro will be able to do without gtk2 in the next year for their default installation10:27
milanbvelse that means GNOME will stay 2.3010:27
seb128milanbv, what will they use?10:27
seb128no10:27
seb128it ship means you have to ship 2 versions of GTK10:27
seb128which is not so much of an issue and most distros will do10:27
seb128but it requires work and CD space10:27
milanbvI agree that's really not optimal10:27
seb128and we don't have the manpower for the packaging work and port work in half a cycle10:28
seb128we aim for GTK3 and GNOME3 next cycle10:28
seb128our team is small and we can't get there this cycle10:28
milanbvbut I fear all that patching work will be tedious too10:28
seb128it will10:29
seb128that's why we plan to do the platform this cycle10:29
seb128ie we will have gtk3 and libraries built for it this cycle10:29
seb128but not on the default installation10:30
seb128so we can start working on getting things building with it10:30
seb128but I've little doubt we will not be done by end of the cycle10:30
milanbvanyway, I really believe this kind of decision should be explained upstream ASAP10:30
milanbvyou're helping rants against Ubuntu by not talking10:31
seb128I talked to andre and vuntz about it10:33
seb128we had fpeters at UDS10:33
seb128and it has publically mentioned to several upstream10:34
seb128ie empathy, tomboy10:34
seb128I do plan to reply to those emails10:34
seb128I didn't do an email upstream before because it's a distro choice10:34
seb128and I don't see how what we do is revelant for upstream10:34
seb128as you said on the list Ubuntu is only one distro10:34
seb128why our choice should matter enough to be announced upstream10:35
milanbvthat's not one distro - that's one of the main distros10:35
seb128I will reply to this email10:36
seb128the bottom line is that I think GNOME is right to go to GTK3 this cycle10:36
milanbvand that's relevant because e.g. Empathy devs are primarily concerned about getting 2.32 into Ubuntu10:36
seb128but I don't trust GNOME3 to be ready on time10:36
seb128well they are not the only ones and they are right as a project10:37
seb128lot of upstream care about their code to run on the current lts10:37
didrocksmilanbv: empathy guys are already aware of that, we discussed it over the week-end and I annonced the point seb128 just explained to you10:37
seb128and will do for some years10:37
didrocksannounced*10:37
seb128or on the coming Debian stable10:37
seb128or on RHEL610:37
seb128or on the current opensuse10:37
seb128the fact that GNOME3 is coming doesn't mean those distro will stop being used10:37
seb128and upstream will keep carring about having their software new versions available for those users10:38
seb128I doubt firefox we go with "we do builds for GTK3, if you use RHEL or Lucid LTS or Debian you loose"10:38
seb128will go10:38
seb128I think it's not realistic to ask softwares writers to go GTK3 only10:39
milanbvFirefox is another kettle of fish...10:39
seb128well take pidgin if you like10:39
seb128or chrome10:39
seb128or openoffice10:39
seb128or eclipse10:39
seb128everything which matters out of GNOME itself10:39
milanbv...and is on the CD10:40
seb128that's orthogonal10:40
milanbvpeople using Eclipse can afford loading a second GTK+ version10:40
seb128I'm explaining you why empathy and other will care about being gtk2 compatible still10:40
seb128it doesn't mean they will not allow building with gtk310:40
seb128but dropping gtk2 support doesn't seem something software writters should or will do10:41
seb128well there is 2 topics there10:41
seb128- default gtk version we can and will use10:41
seb128- what upstream code will build with10:41
seb128and saying upstream code should stop building with gtk2 is a no go10:41
seb128it means upstream code will stop building on Lucid LTS10:41
seb128or RHEL610:41
seb128or Debian10:41
seb128or opensuse10:42
milanbvthat's true for standalone software10:42
seb128those distros don't have gtk3 in their current stable10:42
milanbvbut for GNOME core10:42
seb128well, empathy is standalone software10:42
Zdraseb128, it's really unsure empathy will build with gtk210:42
seb128or they can decide if they care about their software being shipped out of the new GNOME10:42
milanbvand I think gnome-settings-daemon depends on GTK+3 already10:43
seb128Zdra, well it's a call your team should be doing but knowing you drop support for all those distro when you do it10:43
Zdraseb128, we are really in the middle of dilemma tbh10:43
seb128milanbv, right, which is why we don't update to GNOME 2.3110:43
milanbvyeah, but it's really not that nice...10:43
seb128we don't have confidence on GNOME3 to be ready this cycle10:43
milanbvI see10:43
seb128it's going to be like the new KDE10:43
seb128buggy and crashy10:44
milanbv:D10:44
seb128it's lot of changes for one cycle10:44
seb128it's mixing gtk3 and dconf10:44
milanbvnot as many as for KDE410:44
Zdraseb128, I think the big big mistake is to not provide GtkApplication in Gtk 2.2210:44
Zdraluckily they are (it seems) still making libunique-310:45
Zdraso that could safe us all10:45
seb128how does that makes any difference?10:45
seb128that's libunique for gtk310:45
seb128oh, you mean you can keep using that and not depends on gtk3 specific apis10:46
seb128right...10:46
rodrigo_seb128, have you seen the 'Call to maintainers: GNOME 2.31 to ship GTK 2.90' in desktop-devel-list?10:46
Zdraseb128, exactly10:46
milanbvrodrigo_: sure he has ;-)10:46
rodrigo_seb128, they're talking about ubuntu not shipping gtk3, if you have something to say10:46
rodrigo_ah, ok :)10:46
rodrigo_ah, I see you've been discussing it :)10:47
Zdraseb128, in the unlikely hypotheses that all packages shipped with ubuntu liveCD can build with GTK3, would you accept to ship gtk3 with maverick?10:48
seb128Zdra, if it's available on time and working yes10:48
seb128I still have little confidence on the GNOME3 schedule10:49
seb128Zdra, but I doubt firefox or openoffice will be gtk3 friendly this cycle10:49
seb128knowing those it will take a year to get there10:49
seb128I don't think openoffice will roll a new version this cycle10:50
Zdraseb128, yeah, it is unlikely... but to totally fair, I think you should communicate your position, give a list of packages that needs absolutely to build with gtk3, then we'll see...10:50
seb128Zdra, I plan to reply to the mailing list with what I just said there10:50
seb128I think it's not a good choice for software writters to drop gtk2 support10:50
seb128it's not something any reasonable isv would do10:51
seb128I don't ever see firefox telling all those RHEL or Debian or LTS use to stop using firefox10:51
Zdrain the first place I think it is a *really* bad idea from GTK dev to add features in GTK 3.010:51
Zdrathe initial plan was to have gtk 3.0 == gtk2.22 - deprecated10:51
milanbvFirefox could be GTK2 and 3 friendly at the same time10:51
milanbvjust removing deprecated symbols10:52
milanbvthat's what most GNOME modules will do10:52
milanbvthe problem is, will they want it in time...10:52
seb128no, it's not what GNOME will do10:53
seb128that's why we have this discussion10:53
seb128empathy 2.32 for example might depends on gtk310:53
seb128ie using gtkapplication10:53
seb128which is a gtk3 feature only10:53
seb128which means it will not be able to build it with gtk2 or on any gtk2 only distro10:53
seb128well again those are 2 different issues10:54
Zdraseb128, tbh we didn't make any decision, and we understand it is important to support gtk2, and even more important to be shipped with ubuntu10:54
seb128one being what default gtk we will use10:54
seb128the other is what software writters will support10:54
seb128I can't really speak for GNOME components10:54
seb128ie empathy10:54
Zdraseb128, but if that becomes a GNOME goal to drop libunique and use GtkApplication... then that will become problematic10:54
seb128but I can for sure say that things like pidgin or firefox or chrome will not let gtk2 users down by stopping building with it10:55
seb128Zdra, you could have buildtime if code to use one or the other I guess10:55
milanbvusing libunique for yet one cycle won't be considered a crime I guess10:55
Zdraseb128, I think the important thing now is the explain the ubuntu position, and ask GNOME release them to ensure that 2.32 still build with gtk2 as compatibility10:55
seb128I plan to do that10:55
Zdraseb128, and also ask GTK dev WTF they are doing with 2.2210:56
Zdrathey should really backport gtkapplication, I see no reason for not doing it10:57
rodrigo_someone mentioned having GtkApplication in2.22, iirc10:57
rodrigo_with that, most stuff should work ok with both gtk2 and gtk3, I think10:57
milanbvZdra: ask Colin Walters, I think he was OK to do it10:57

seb128didrocks, what issue do you have?12:45
didrocksseb128: more seriously, it's segfaulting each times it tries to play something (local mp3/ogg, radio, upnp shared music)12:46

rodrigo_what consumer does manage-credentials need to authenticate for lp-project-upload to work?12:58
didrocksrodrigo_: from the code, it's 'ubuntu-dev-tools'13:05
didrocks(function get_launchpad() used by some scripts in ubuntu-dev-tools)13:05
rodrigo_didrocks, ok, thanks13:06
nessitadidrocks: hey there, I was asking rodrigo_ how to create credentials to upload releases to LP13:13
nessitaand manage-credentials -c ubuntu-dev-tools is failing with "manage-credentials: error: Please define a sub-tool you would like to use13:14
nessitadidrocks: any idea what am I missing?13:14
didrocksnessita: why do you use manage-credentials? you should just use lp-project-upload13:16
didrocksthis one will create the crendential for you13:16
nessitadidrocks: well, yes, but it says:13:16
nessitaCould not connect to Launchpad: No credentials found for 'ubuntu-dev-tools', please see the manage-credentials manpage for help on how to create one for this consumer.13:16
didrocksoh ok, it's been a while I've created my credential for it, let me check13:17
didrocksbecause manage-credentials -c foo works13:17
nessitadidrocks: thanks :-)13:17
didrocksbut yeah, not with ubuntu-dev-tools13:17
rodrigo_I never had to use manage-credentials, not sure which tool created my credentials13:18
nessitarodrigo_: maybe because this is a new installation? though my home is the same, and I can push and pull from LP with no problem (to private projects as well)13:19
rodrigo_nessita, the credentials for bzr branches are different, afaik13:19
nessitaoh ok13:19
didrocksnessita: manage-credentials create -c 'ubuntu-dev-tools'13:20
nessitadidrocks: no way! :-)13:20

seb128ups13:45
seb128sorry13:45
didrocksseb128: hum? I don't know that feature, let me have a look13:45
seb128well usually clicking on a stacktrace works13:45
seb128there is wants to open it and it says it's a binary format to download13:46
didrockshum, that's because it gave a bad MimeType13:46
didrocks(bugzilla is horribly slow there today)13:47
seb128usually people just copy the stacktrace in a comment on bugzilla I think13:47
pedro_didrocks, i've paste the stacktrace you attached in the bug report so it can be looked more easily13:47
seb128bugzilla is clever about those and display only the start with a expender sign13:47
seb128thanks pedro_13:47
pedro_that way it would work as seb128 said13:47
seb128pedro_, hey btw, how are you?13:47

seb128didrocks, is oneconf in s-c or ubiquity still likely for a2 or should that be revisited?13:56
seb128didrocks, can you give me a summary of where it stands? does it need design input? did people agree to get it in there?13:57
seb128hello rickspencer313:57
didrocksseb128: mvo told me last week that the software-center plugin was available end of last week, which didn't happen. So, it will be delay by one more week now that he is in holidays13:57
didrocksmpt is working today on the design (we discussed together last Friday about that point)13:58
seb128didrocks, mvo is not the only one to work on s-c ;-)13:58
didrocksso, designed-view, it shold be ok13:58
seb128ok13:58
seb128so design agree to get it in s-c?13:58
didrocksseb128: yeah, but the plugin part was his task, apparently13:58
didrocksright13:58
seb128I though there were some discussions about it and I though I read about ubiquity being an issue due to connectivity not always being there etc13:58
didrocksubiquity, I think it won't do it this cycle to be honest13:58
rickspencer3good morning seb12813:58
didrockshey rickspencer313:59
seb128didrocks, ok, I agree with that, can you change the workitem to delayed?13:59
didrocksseb128: sure, DELAYED or POSTPONED? both are valid?13:59
seb128ups, postponed13:59

seb128sorry ;-)13:59
didrocksno worry :-)13:59
seb128the appmenubar is in main btw now14:00

seb128check with davidbarth first though14:00
didrockssure14:00
seb128I think he had some concern about quality on friday14:00
didrocksalso, I will POSTPONE some Quickly tasks as gedit is changing his plugin system this cycle14:00
seb128it might require to confirm if it's ready to go or not14:01
didrocksok, will check with him14:01

kenvandineseb128, i started getting sick thurs and friday... and friday night i went to the doctor... turns out i have an infection caused by a tick bite14:26
seb128urg14:27
kenvandinesomething similar to rocky mountain spotted fever, not sure if you ever heard of that14:27
seb128:-(14:27
kenvandinebut it's a pain...14:27
seb128my weekend was quite nice thanks14:27
seb128kenvandine, no I didn't, checking on internet now ;-)14:27
seb128kenvandine, I hope you get better14:28
kenvandineanyway... i'll survive... but will have joint pain.. aches and pains and a fever for probably 2 full weeks :(14:28
seb128kenvandine, take some rest today if you need it14:28
seb128:-(14:28
kenvandineit's a nasty infection... i was never too worried about ticks before...14:28
kenvandineanyway... i'll be ok :)14:28
seb128they are known to be bad around there14:28
kenvandineyeah14:29
seb128we try to be careful with those14:29
kenvandinei was working on my fence two weeks ago... and got a bunch of bite14:29
kenvandine+s14:29
seb128anyway at least you know what you have now14:30
kenvandineyeah... glad my wife made me go to the doctor...14:30
kenvandineshe's the one that remembered i got the tick bites... and knew to make me go to the doctor asap14:30
tremoluxseb128: hi Seb, we can talk about work items; last week was a bit of a backfill week but I plan to focus on work items this week exclusively15:28
kenvandineseb128, just talked to rickspencer3, we moved all my existing gwibber WIs to a315:28
rickspencer3and add work items for fixing Twitter after Twitter breaks Gwibber15:29
kenvandineand i added a couple new ones to a2, to handle an important change to twitter that needs to get into lucid by the end of june15:29
seb128ok, thanks15:29
seb128tremolux, hey15:29
kenvandineseb128, basically twitter.com is turning off the auth mechanism that we use currently, and they just published the spec for how open source apps will need to auth15:29
tremoluxseb128: particularly the New Apps and Buy something items are moving now15:29
tremoluxseb128: hiya  :)15:30
seb128kenvandine, seems something to move priority on indeed15:30
kenvandineyeah15:30
seb128tremolux, so do you think you are on track to get everything on http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/workitems/maverick/canonical-desktop-team-maverick-alpha-2.html done by end of the month or not?15:30
seb128tremolux, ""Where is it" feature; investigate whether we need to enable accessibility by default (enables us to talk to the menu)"15:31
seb128tremolux, did you take into consideration environments without menus, ie UNE, for this one?15:31
tremoluxseb128: no, actually, I haven't dug into that one at all yet15:32
tremoluxseb128: those items in the UI Enhancements lists test to be standalong features, they are good candidates for trading in and out as we see fit15:32
seb128ok15:33
seb128it seems to me this one should be move to alpha315:33
seb128what do you think?15:33
tremoluxseb128: yeah, I agree; the issue with accessibility was the gate for that15:34
seb128ok, please move it then on the blueprint then, thanks15:34
tremoluxseb128: will do15:34
seb128tremolux, otherwise you have quite some items still but it seems doable if you focus on those this week15:34
seb128tremolux, let's see how it goes15:34
seb128tremolux, keep the good work, s-c looks great ;-)15:35
tremoluxseb128: yes, that sounds good15:35
seb128tremolux, btw let me know if you need sponsoring for an upload this week since mvo is on holidays15:35
tremoluxseb128: thanks :)15:35
tremoluxseb128: right, thanks, mvo mentioned that, I think later this week may be a good time to do one15:35
seb128ok15:36
seb128just let me know when you think we should do an update15:36
tremoluxseb128: we did a release last week with a lot of new stuff and I've done some cleanup since15:36
tremoluxseb128: thanks15:36
bcurtiswxseb128: will the testing PPA's be posted on the mailing lists.  I can use my VM if it'll help out. (i.e. the new gnome panel)15:38
seb128bcurtiswx, what testing ppa?15:39
seb128oh, you mean specifically for gnome-panel15:39
seb128I guess we will not do the update15:39
seb128I should update the blueprint15:39
seb128the gtk3 issue got added to the list since UDS15:39
bcurtiswxseb128: yeah, im reading ahead on some of the blueprints15:39
* bcurtiswx shrugs as to why his wireless is bad today15:45
tremoluxkenvandine: hi Ken, mpt has some useful comments for Gwibber integration in Software Center here:  https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/59261915:48
ubot2Launchpad bug 592619 in software-center (Ubuntu) "Software item screen has unspecified "Share via microblog" item (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New]15:48
* kenvandine looks15:49
tremoluxkenvandine: p.s.  sorry to hear about your tick bite!15:49
tremoluxkenvandine: not Lyme disease, is it?15:49
* bcurtiswx agrees it sounds like Lyme disease15:50
kenvandineno.. thankfully15:51
kenvandineehrlichiosis15:51
* kenvandine hates medical terms... do that have to be so hard to pronounce and spell?15:52
tremoluxkenvandine: ug, still sounds like no fun15:52
kenvandineit is pretty similar to rocky mounted spotted fever, but not as agressive15:52
tremoluxkenvandine: it's great for parties tho, "oh, yes, I've got this nasty case of ehrlichiosis.  please pass the onion dip"15:53
kenvandinehehe15:54
kenvandinethat's awesome15:54
tremoluxkenvandine: anyway, feel better soon15:54
kenvandinethx man15:55
tremoluxkenvandine: note on that bug, reviews are not currently in the plan for maverick15:56
kenvandinetremolux, indeed... my original branch didn't use the term microblog... i think it said something like Share with your social networks15:58
kenvandineor something like that15:58
tremoluxkenvandine: ah, interesting!15:59
kenvandinei know we avoid the term microblog... but i am not sure there is a consensus on what should be used15:59
tremoluxkenvandine: I can check, maybe mvo changed that?15:59
kenvandinempt, "Broadcast"15:59
kenvandinemvo did change it... almost certain15:59
tremoluxkenvandine: yeah15:59
kenvandinemaybe mpt can give us some guidance on terminology16:00
kenvandineand he makes a good point for apturl16:00
kenvandinebut... other gwibber users get something useful16:00
mptkenvandine, I think first we should nail down what user stories we want to satisfy. "Check out {this thing}" doesn't seem obviously something we should make easy -- or at least, not easier than, say, e-mailing someone about this thing.16:02
mptkenvandine, were there any other suggestions made during the UDS session?16:03
rodrigo_seb128, more questions :)16:15
seb128?16:15
seb128I didn't get your previous question if you asked one16:15
rodrigo_seb128, we have a package split from u1-client that we want to upload to maverick and included in main16:15
seb128so ask again ;-)16:15
rodrigo_seb128, just warning you that I have more questions :)16:16
seb128oh ok16:16
rodrigo_seb128, so, should we go via REVU?16:16
rodrigo_or just upload and file a MIR?16:16
seb128source split or binaries split from what is built?16:16
rodrigo_source split16:16
seb128I doubt you will be able to upload the new source16:16
seb128you need a new package, review, etc16:16
nessitaseb128: we almost have the new package ready16:17
seb128ok good16:17
seb128so feel free to upload16:17
seb128REVU is not an hard requirement16:17
kenvandinempt, https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-maverick-social-api16:17
nessitaseb128: to upload to revu or to a branch?16:17
kenvandinethe notes are on the bottom of the whiteboard16:17
nessitaah, right16:17
mptkenvandine, our GSoC student intends to do the apturl part of that16:18
seb128nessita, to upload to Ubuntu16:18
seb128ie get somebody to sponsor it16:18

seb128rodrigo_, I will review it in NEW once it's uploaded16:19
kenvandinerodrigo_, the ibuprofin is helping a little... keep the fever a bit down16:19
kenvandinebest i can hope for :)16:19
rodrigo_kenvandine, cool, I thought you were not working today because of that, so hope it gets better :)16:19
kenvandinempt, cool... my branch had a urlhandler for software-center specific urls, so other ubuntu users would go straight into software-center16:20
kenvandinempt, but mvo didn't take that part of my branch :)16:20
kenvandinegetting it in apturl is much better16:20
ArneGoetjeseb128: I did have a meeting on Friday with them. I'm in the process of updating the specs and creating the mockups now.16:30

ftaslomo, here?19:46
ftaslomo, wrt libvpx, do you track only releases? i see that mozilla is tracking a snapshot, and chromium is still with the initial git commit, while otoh, commits started to flow in upstream git19:50
slomofta: libvpx 0.9.0-6 contains latest GIT version as of 8 days ago19:53
slomofta: soon there will be a 0.9.1 release, i'll update to that then19:53
slomofta: why?19:53
ftaslomo, so 0.9.0-6 is 0.9.0+gitxxxx, not 0.9.0 proper, right?19:53
slomoyes19:54
slomosee the changelog19:54
ftaslomo, the reason i ask is because i see some fixes and perf improvements in git. and using webm in chromium, 720p is using lots of cpu19:54
ftachromium is not yet using the GPU, so any perf improvement in the codec is good to have19:55
slomothe performance improvements are not *that* much, only a few percent19:55
slomoit's still using quite some cpu19:56
ftai know, but each % counts ;)19:56
dobeyany sponsors around?20:00
ftaslomo, i had to disable crossfading in rhythmbox, it was doing weird stuff since the upgrade to maverick, is there already a bug i can track?20:06
