vishand471: :)08:18
vishand471:  hmm , about the other lernid debdiff , i dont think sponsors will upload a huge patch for that without a separate bug , have you asked in -motu about that diff?08:19
and471vish, no not really08:20
vishand471: err , i meant to say , *could you ask* in -motu :)08:20
vishand471: iirc its one of those [needs packaging] bugs..08:21
=== sense_ is now known as sense
and471vish, well all the packaging is done, that debdiff just needs to be sponsored08:26
vishand471: yeah , i *think* they prefer such changes as a needs packaging bug.. i'm not sure though ;)08:27
and471vish, ok I will bear it in mind08:35

ubot2Ubuntu bug 498705 in gpsdrive (Debian) (and 3 other projects) "gpsdrive is incorrectly categorized in software-center (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Unknown,New]16:26
vishand471: aw.. looks like you tried getting help from -motu too..16:28
and471vish, :(16:30
and471vish, I tried but I came to a point where I thought, if this package ends up working, it is by luck and will probably have loads of bugs - some with the real expertise needs to give it a crack16:30
and471vish, plus I didn't really have a clue about the package itself16:30
and471vish, though I did some of the hard work with the patches :)16:30
micahgand471: does the newer debian version help at all?16:35
senseCould anyone on Maverick check if any error messages are printed to the console when they execute 'import gtk; tmp = gtk.Menu()' in a Python console? I get errors about NULL pointers and invalid types when I do so.16:35
and471micahg, no not really, it is updating a very old version of a package that has really changed a lot16:38
micahgand471: a new upstream version bug has not been reported in debian, I would suggest doing that16:42
and471micahg, sure, but the maintainer has not been active for a very long time https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/gpsdrive/+bug/498705/comments/716:43

micahgand471: 4 months isn't a long time16:45
micahgand471: some people are impatient16:45
micahg*inpatient16:45
and471micahg, those aren't my words :) I didn't write that comment, just followed the advice of the commenter who knew more about the package than me16:45
vishmicahg: you were right the first time ;)16:46
micahgvish: heh16:46
and471micahg, I shall file a bug and hope something is done16:46
micahgand471: sometimes, better to see for yourself http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gpsdrive.html16:46
vishyay! and471 on the way to becoming a motu ;)16:48
and471heh, not even close...16:48
vishand471: i said on the way , at the start of course ;p16:49
and471:)16:49
and471micahg, vish, filed in debian :)16:54
dupondjehi guys, I got some question, want to report a bug on a strange issue, but don't know what package would be the issue17:32
dupondjeThe bug is: when for example firefox is on top of my screen, and I close the app (press the cross left on top) it closes not firefox, but the other program that runs also (for example terminal)17:32
and471dupondje, I have also seen this issue but neglected to file it...17:48
and471dupondje, try filing it in metacity17:48
dupondjei'll do :)17:50
recognizerhi, everybody knows how to fix a problem with the mouse cursor?. It doesnt appear when I start my session17:59
recognizerI have ubuntu 10.04 with Gnome17:59
dupondjeand471: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/61230418:15
ubot2Ubuntu bug 612304 in metacity (Ubuntu) "When closing application, not always the application with the focus is closed (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New]18:15
and471dupondje, cool :)18:17
and471recognizer, try #ubuntu18:17
and471sense, I get the behaviour you described on Lucid as well18:30
senseand471: That's weird.18:30
senseMust be a bug in GTK+ or PyGTK.18:31
and471sense, bad update or something?18:31
and471sense, I only just got it today, I have been developing on pygtk all this week without it18:31
senseand471: Strange. Did you recently got an update for GTK+?18:32
and471sense, can't remember, though I think I did recently update18:32
and471sense, is there a list of recently updated packages?18:33
senseand471: You could take a look at <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0> to see if an update was recently released.18:34
senseand471: Which was five weeks ago.18:35
sensehttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pygtk18:35
sensesays the last release on Lucid as 28 weeks ago.18:35
and471sense, yeah but I was hoping to see if there was a wider thing so I could look if any recent packages were associated with gtk :)18:35
senseand471: There is a 'lucid-changes' mailing list.18:36
and471sense, can you check that, I will check my software-center18:36
senseok18:36
and471sense, the first thing I can see is yesterday I upgraded libgtk2.0-common18:39
senseah18:40
and471sense, it has a weird version 2.20.1-0ubuntu2+menuproxy1118:40
senseand471: That could explain the menu related thing: it means that GTK+ version contains aptches to enable GtkMenuProxy, which is required for AppMenu GTK+.18:40
senseThat gives me a clue where to search. :)18:41
senseThanks and471!18:41
and471sense, no problem glad I could help :)18:41
and471sense, make sure if you find the problem to backport it, these messages are annoying when developing :D18:41
senseand471: Will do!18:43
