chrisccoulsonmicahg - ok, thanks00:22
chrisccoulsonhmmmm, epiphany seems to be leaking plugin instances in general with xul 1.9.2 :-/00:22
micahgbdrung_: should we use the xulrunner backports as an excuse to backport eclipse 3.5 to hardy/jaunty?/01:14
bdrung_micahg: to backport eclipse 3.5, we need to backport 10 other libraries. i doubt we can do that.02:00
micahgbdrung_: k, jd-strand thought I should ask02:03
=== micahg changed the topic of #ubuntu-mozillateam to: Welcome to the Ubuntu Mozilla Team: | ML: http://is.gd/83fnr | Help test the Firefox 3.6 and xulrunner 1.9.2 migrations in Hardy, Jaunty, and Karmic -- Caution is advised -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Firefox3.6.4Upgrade/ | Next Meeting: TBD

DanaG1Say, where can I get a compatible lightning-extension and gdata-provider?06:40
DanaG1http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1463762.html06:41
DanaG1I try using 1.0b1 of lightning, and I have to find "contrib" x86_64 builds.06:41
DanaG1gdata_provider is only compatible with "3.0" (meaning 3.0.0).06:41
DanaG1And when I tweak the RDF to 3.0.*, it installs... but says "Requires additional items."06:41
DanaG1Unfortunately, Mozilla themselves fail to do x86_64 at all themselves.  Grr!06:43
DanaG1argh, looks like I'll have to go to 3.1 instead.06:46
DanaG1And even the nightly updater isn't compatible with 3.1a2pre!06:58
DanaG1"Lightning" could not be installed because it is not compatible with your Shredder build type (Linux_x86_64-gcc3). Please contact the author of this item about the problem.06:59
DanaG1Damnit, Mozilla!06:59
DanaG1Excuse the swearing, but yeah, fail.06:59
DanaG1        <em:minVersion>3.1</em:minVersion>07:00
DanaG1        <em:maxVersion>3.1.*</em:maxVersion>07:00
DanaG13.1a1pre doesn't fit in that range!07:02
DanaG1oh, and gdata-provider doesn't work... you enter "google calendar" and it asks you for a "location", with no clue of what format to use.07:07
DanaG1ah, "xml".07:09
DanaG1say, since 3.1 is officially out, where can we get debs?07:36
DanaG1ah, looks like ubuntu-mozilla-daily hasn't created a new Thunderbird in, oh, THIS YEAR.07:37
DanaG1wow.07:38
* DanaG1 gives up and installs a 32-bit thunderbird in /opt07:56
gnomefreakit seems that tb3 will be supported significantly less than 6 months12:23
gnomefreakfirefox4 is just about ready to release b1 i thought 3.4 == 4.0 i know 3.7 has some parts to fx 412:44
gnomefreak3.7 even12:45
BUGabundognomefreak: that is what I knew too13:06
gnomefreakI'm not real sure what is going on now. i thought i knew13:14
gnomefreakalso didnt know they name releases after beaches13:14
gnomefreakwhy do i think jaunty == EOLS13:23
gnomefreakmorning micahg13:23
micahgmorning gnomefreak, ^^ after maverick release :)13:23
gnomefreakmicahg: thanks :)13:24
nikolammicahg, SM was dropping so often, so I installed SM from Joe Lesko PPA. Today SM 2 2.05 landed at him.13:31
micahgnikolam: k, sorry, we have 2.0.5 in the security PPA and probably will land in the archive monday or tuesday, but the issue isn't fixed yet13:32
gnomefreakmicahg: is Maverick package in the security PPA13:33
micahggnomefreak: for Seamonkey, probably not13:33
gnomefreakmicahg: thanks13:33
micahggnomefreak: hopefully in another 1.5 weeks, I'll get upload rights and Maverick will start getting those earlier13:33
gnomefreakmicahg: going up for Motu?13:34
micahggnomefreak: no, I have my own package set :)13:34
gnomefreakah13:34
micahggnomefreak: if I went for MOTU, I wouldn't get anything else done :)13:35
gnomefreakgood point13:35
gnomefreakanyone care to try to reproduce bug 59804013:35
ubot2Launchpad bug 598040 in flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu) "Google Streetview detects Flash isn't version 10 (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/59804013:35
gnomefreakI'm not seeing it assuming i am doing it right13:36
micahggnomefreak: user can't read package version :)13:37
gnomefreak;)13:37
micahggnomefreak: you can check with the security team, but I think they'll stay with flash 9 until it's EOL and then move to whatever is current13:38
micahggnomefreak: in fact, I suggest asking before replying with such things :)13:39
gnomefreakmicahg: they will more than likely. it was a pain in the ass to backport it to Hardy13:39
gnomefreaki had filed that bug and i can recall the # and i stopped getting mail from it13:39
gnomefreakmicahg: is there a security team or more of a find someone and ask13:40
mdeslaurgnomefreak: I'm here13:40
mdeslaurgnomefreak: I'll reply to the bug13:40

chrisccoulsonjdstrand - i've been looking at this epiphany issue today (leaving totem-plugin-viewer running)13:50
chrisccoulsonit's actually a bigger problem than that13:50
chrisccoulsonepiphany seems to be leaking all plugin instances :(13:50
jdstrandchrisccoulson: erk13:50
chrisccoulsonso, i'm trying to figure out how that's meant to work atm13:51
jdstrandchrisccoulson: thanks :)13:51
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, i'm not sure i'll be able to figure it out for monday though ;)13:55
chrisccoulsonthere's quite a bit to figure out13:55
jdstrandchrisccoulson: have you talked to upstream? would they care?13:55
jdstrandchrisccoulson: I'm willing to go to Tuesday, fwiw13:55
chrisccoulsonjdstrand, i don't think they would. they're only maintaining the webkit backend now13:56
jdstrandchrisccoulson: I wonder if someone from IRC could at least help point you in the right direction...13:57

LantiziaHey, where can I get a mozilla branded Thunderbird 3.1 ubuntu package from?14:56
LantiziaI notice there is now a https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/thunderbird-stable14:59
LantiziaBut only 3.0.5 is in there... not sure how new 3.1 is but I need it for Lightning14:59
LantiziaAh new as in... yesterday lol15:00
* Lantizia uses 3.0.4 and Lightning 1.0b1 for now15:02
LantiziaI assume 3.1 will appear in that PPA though before long?15:02
gnomefreakLantizia: right now there are issues we need to handle with 3.1 and we removed it from the daily PPA. we will get it done most likely after we update Firefox tot all supported Ubuntu releases15:09
gnomefreaklightning is a different story15:09
Lantiziagnomefreak, well I'm not asking the ubuntu mozilla team to handle lightning - it is just an extention after all15:10
LantiziaBut 3.1 came out yesterday and mozilla claim stable, so I can understand if there were issues with a non-stable build being in the thunderbird-stable PPA15:10
LantiziaBut now it is stable surely the issues will have gone away?15:10
gnomefreakLantizia: it is a mozilla package and we have to strip the source down as we are not supporting sunbird anymore15:11
LantiziaWhat does sunbird have to do with any of this?15:11
LantiziaForget I even mentioned lightning15:11
gnomefreakLantizia: it was one of the packages i maintained. we have alog of work to do in short time. but pushing firefox is #1 on our list15:11
gnomefreakLantizia: the source package is lightning-sunbird it holds both15:12
LantiziaThunderbird gets kept on the shit tip as usual then because of Firefox15:12
gnomefreakfirefox security is more inpmortant than ANYTHING atm15:12
gnomefreakthinderbird-3.1 is just about last on our list15:12
LantiziaSure because that makes a whole world of sense... Mozilla's main two products Firefox & Thunderbird, once brothers ... now alienated cousins... And Thunderbird is LAST on your list?15:13
LantiziaI don't think this would be the situation if Canonical swapped Evolution out for Thunderbird15:13
gnomefreakunstable thunderbird is.15:14
LantiziaThat is of course if Thunderbird ever got the right tender loving care that it isn't getting15:14
LantiziaI'm not about unstable thunderbird I'm on about stable15:14
Lantizia3.1 is stable, now15:14
gnomefreakthunderbird 3.1 we will be working on and btw thunderbird follows seamonky not firefox15:14
gnomefreakno it isnt15:15
gnomefreakIIRC beta115:15
LantiziaNo it went stable yesterday15:15
Lantiziahttp://www.mozillamessaging.com15:15
gnomefreakthan we will get to it but feel free to package it and submit it for us to look over15:15
LantiziaWell now you're aware that it has gone stable, doesn't that change the priorites so it's not last?  Maybe middle? :)15:16
LantiziaI know I know I Know... Firefox first... but surely not Thunderbird last15:16
gnomefreakwe have ~5 people maintaing/packageing for all mozilla product. we try our best tio get everything done15:16
gnomefreakLantizia: not last15:16
LantiziaThunderbird second surely!15:16
gnomefreakwe are putting lightning last IIRC15:17
LantiziaI don't care about Ubuntu packaging lightning... thats just dumb IMO15:17
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: care to take this over i have alot of work to do afk i know you are bustiong your ass with the totem and freiends15:18
gnomefreakLantizia: it has to be done. your opinion on it is small to the people that use it15:18
gnomefreakLantizia: we will get it done as soon as we can. if you or someone else wants to help out feel free15:19
Lantiziagnomefreak, yes the people who use it is bigger than my opinion - hence why it shouldn't be last :)15:19
chrisccoulsonLantizia, the small number of people involved with the mozillateam are busy on getting firefox 3.6.4 out to all ubuntu releases atm15:20
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: tried that already :)15:20
gnomefreakbe back as soon as i get time15:20
chrisccoulsontb 3.1 is a lower priority than that. however, if you need it now, then feel free to help us out15:21
LantiziaOh I know it's important - I especially like the idea of no flash plugins crashing my browser15:21
chrisccoulsonwe just don't have the manpower to do that immediately15:21
LantiziaBut you didn't even know 3.1 TB was stable15:21
LantiziaAnd said it would be last15:21
chrisccoulsonLantizia, we're well aware that it is stable15:21
Lantiziahe wasn't!15:21
chrisccoulsonwell, i am (and so is micahg)15:22
chrisccoulsonwe just don't have the time to work on it right now, so i'm sorry about that15:22
Lantiziaok so TB 3.1 after FX 3.6.4 ?15:22
gnomefreaki havent checked my mozilla email so i wouldnt have knon until i did15:22
gnomefreakok going to put lawnmower back to gether15:23
chrisccoulsonLantizia, yes, probably. and we will be most -likely preparing to publish 3.1 to lucid too15:23
Lantiziao_O I thought you wouldn't do that15:23
chrisccoulsonwell, support for 3.0 may not last much longer, but lucid is supported for nearly 3 more years15:23
Lantiziathought they stay in major versions15:23
Lantiziaok15:24
chrisccoulsonLantizia, for firefox, we follow major versions in stable releases once the current release becomes EOL now15:28
Lantiziaok15:28
chrisccoulsonwe haven't really properly adopted that policy for thunderbird, but i'm not sure it makes sense to try and maintain a piece of software on our own for 2.5 years (ie, tb3.0)15:29
gnomefreaksorry wrong part drive shaft not engine yet15:32
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: IIRC we are treating thunderbirrd seamonkey than firefox the same when it comes to updates15:32
chrisccoulsongnomefreak, yeah, that's true. although the releases with tb2 aren't being updated, as the maintenance burden is considered to be quite low15:33
gnomefreakwe;; tb2 is no longer supported and tb3 has less that 6 months from release15:34
* gnomefreak not real sure why tb3 doesnt do full 6month support15:34
gnomefreakwell15:34
gnomefreakwe have 1 year till EOLS for hardy so i dont think passing 3.0 to hardy matters too much15:35
gnomefreaknot to mention it will be a pain in the ass, but that is just me. we should be telling people to upgrade to Lucid15:36
* gnomefreak checking mmozilla email15:37
ddecatoroh, micah isn't on..15:47
ddecatordang, i have to go. he'll see the email eventually, but when he gets on can someone let him know i fixed FF 3.7? thanks :)15:55
gnomefreakddecator: if im here i will15:57
ftaddecator, just saw your merge request, a/ we don't document rebases, there are too many and it brings no value for the user, b/ your patches have a lower context than ours16:03
BUGabundohello dear fabien16:04
ftaddecator, and thanks btw ;)16:04
ftaBUGabundo, hi16:04
ftaddecator, my .quiltrc has QUILT_DIFF_OPTS="-U8 -b" & QUILT_REFRESH_ARGS="--diffstat -U8 --strip-trailing-whitespace"16:05
chrisccoulsonjdstrand - ok, i think i'm getting myself confused. epiphany isn't leaking plugin instances, i think gdb is being funny ;)16:55
chrisccoulsonthe problem only seems to concern closing down16:55
jdstrandwell, that's good17:02

chrisccoulsonjdstrand - a clue might be that gtk_moz_embed_destroy is never invoked when shutting down with xul19218:07

cousin_mariodo you think thunderbird 3.1 will be available in the official or backports repositories for lucid anytime soon?18:37
chrisccoulsonnxvl - i'm not sure if you've been following  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Firefox3.6.4Upgrade/SecurityPublication at ll18:40
chrisccoulsonyou should probably have a look through it if not18:41
nxvlchrisccoulson: yup, i'm subscribed18:41
chrisccoulsonnxvl - cool18:41
chrisccoulsoncousin_mario, lucid may get 3.1 as 3.0 approaches EOL18:42
cousin_mariochrisccoulson: which it won't be anytime soon, I suppose...18:43
chrisccoulsoncousin_mario, that might be sooner than you think18:43
chrisccoulsonbut we're all busy on firefox atm18:43
cousin_mariochrisccoulson: oh18:44
