micahgchrisccoulson: do you think we should update firefox-3.5 in jaunty?00:53
micahgor did we replace that, I can never remember00:53
chrisccoulsonmicahg - we didn't replace it. i've got the update ready, but just waiting for xul1.9.1 to finish building on armel00:53
micahgah, ok, looks like we can keep supporting it until EOL of Jaunty (2 months \0/)00:54

lfaraonemicahg: would I need trademark approval from Mozilla to ship Firefox.activity in Sugar? It's just with a custom homepage (the Sugar default) and an ext to intergrete the download manager with the Journal.15:52

gnomefreaklooking at the mozilla-team blueprints i see that we are keeping instantbird but we never had it to keep16:24
chrisccoulsongnomefreak, what do you mean?16:25
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: you added to keep instantbird to the blueprint16:25
chrisccoulsongnomefreak, i made a note that we decided to keep it in the archive16:26
gnomefreakone minute16:26
gnomefreak+  * instantbird - This is cool, so we keep16:26
gnomefreakit is listed under parole16:26
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: that would be great if it was in archive to start with16:27
gnomefreakits not in ubuntu archives16:27
chrisccoulsongnomefreak, it is in the archive16:27
chrisccoulsonit's been there for several weeks now ;)16:27
gnomefreak!info instantbird16:27
ubot2gnomefreak: Package instantbird does not exist in lucid16:27
chrisccoulsoni've even been upoading fixes for it16:28
gnomefreak!info instantbird maverick16:28
ubot2gnomefreak: Package instantbird does not exist in maverick16:28
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: what archive. search finds nothing as well16:28
* gnomefreak confused16:28
chrisccoulsonit's definately there16:28
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: is the name instantbird? or something else16:29
chrisccoulsonyep, it's instantbird16:29
gnomefreaki have been wanting to try it but it never was uploaded16:29
gnomefreakgnomefreak@Development:~$ search instantbird16:29
gnomefreakgnomefreak@Development:~$16:29
chrisccoulsonit was sync'd from debian and then we've uplaoded several ubuntu-specific build fixes for it too16:30
chrisccoulsonhttps://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/instantbird16:30
chrisccoulsonrmadison -u ubuntu instantbird ;)16:30
gnomefreakchrisccoulson: any chance you can push to a PPA so i have access to it until i upgrade this box16:31
chrisccoulsongnomefreak - that's not something i've got time to do atm unfortunately16:32
gnomefreakthats fine16:32
chrisccoulsoni suspect that the maverick build will just run on lucid though ;)16:32
* gnomefreak can always rebuild it for lucid PPA16:32
chrisccoulsonit's built on the same gecko version16:32
gnomefreaktell me this didnt replace chatzilla or even runs in browser at all16:33
* gnomefreak thinking it was a stand alone app 16:33
chrisccoulsongnomefreak, it's unrelated to chatzilla16:33
chrisccoulsonbut it is a standalone app16:34
gnomefreakbut if it is depending on gecko/xul16:34
gnomefreakok so its not even like chatzilla16:34
gnomefreakgood16:34
gnomefreakgrabbing it16:35
gnomefreakthanks16:35
micahglfaraone: I don't know, asac or chrisccoulson might be better suited to answer17:11
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure i'd feel comfortable with answering that question either17:12
gnomefreakno yelling at me.17:12
gnomefreak:\17:12
lfaraonemicahg: I see.17:14
chrisccoulsonheh, archive rebuild test next week17:16
micahggnomefreak: well, that's one problem with instantbird is that it uses its own copy of libpurple17:16
chrisccoulsonthat will mean no PPA's i guess ;)17:16
micahgugh17:16
chrisccoulsonwas just following the RT meeting ;)17:17
chrisccoulsonmicahg - oh, i didn't realise it was using it's own copy of libpurple. debian are usually pretty strict with that sort of thing17:18
micahgdebian 56994617:19
ubot2Debian bug 569946 in instantbird "Blocker bug to keep instantbird out of testing until it uses the standard copy of libpurple" [Serious,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/56994617:19
micahgthat's why it won't be in squeeze :)17:19
chrisccoulsonah17:19
micahgchrisccoulson: I assume you're waiting on xulrunner uploads on the nspr outcome17:19
chrisccoulsonmicahg - yeah, i just opened the changelog entries though to save me time later17:20
chrisccoulsonmicahg - we've got a freeze exception from the release team for 3.6.9 too17:20
micahgthat's good :)17:20
gnomefreakmicahg: that is consistant for 1 or both of my bugs?17:21
micahgbut that doesn't mean we should use it necessarily17:21
micahggnomefreak: ?17:21
chrisccoulsonseb128 asked me if i could fix the crashreporting bug before beta, and i said that there wouldn't be much point unless we uploaded 3.6.917:21
gnomefreakmicahg: i filed 2 bugs one on font and one on chat rooms17:21
micahggnomefreak: I saw, but bugsquad's initial response should be can you test in a maverick VM to see if it happens there :)17:22
chrisccoulsonmicahg - have you been testing 3.6.9 yet?17:22
micahgchrisccoulson: yes, seems ok17:22
chrisccoulsonmicahg - yeah, and there aren't any new blockers yet since it was pushed out to the beta channel yesterday17:22
micahgbut I don't use common sites like facebook and what not where there were regressions early in the cycle17:22
chrisccoulsoni use facebook17:23
* chrisccoulson hangs head in shame17:23
chrisccoulson;)17:23
chrisccoulsoni didn't just admit to that really17:23
micahgchrisccoulson: at least one of us can test then ;)17:23
chrisccoulsonheh17:23
* gnomefreak has a facebook account that i rarely use if i have ever used it17:24
chrisccoulsoni try to be cool sometimes ;)17:24
chrisccoulsoni've never played farmville though17:24
chrisccoulsoni'm happy to say ;)17:24
micahggnomefreak: I'll test your instantbird issues when I upgrade to maverick next week17:31
chrisccoulsoni know what we need for instantbird....17:32
chrisccoulson....messaging indicator support!17:32
chrisccoulson:)17:32
gnomefreakmicahg: ok ikm running it on Lucid atm17:32
micahgchrisccoulson: if we make it an extension, we can use it in both :)17:32
micahggnomefreak: yes, but I won't fix it if it's not broke in maverick :)17:32
gnomefreakk17:33
chrisccoulsonmicahg - yeah. i spoke to the guy who wrote the existing thunderbird extension this week17:33
gnomefreakit _should_ be the same17:33
chrisccoulsonhe's pretty keen to get it in to ubuntu17:33
micahggnomefreak: only if you do a rebuild :)17:33
chrisccoulsoni don't see any reason why we couldn't make it work for all mozilla apps that deal with messaging ;)17:33
micahgchrisccoulson: exactly :)17:34
gnomefreakthats easy enough but at least it works. let me know about maverick and if i have to ill rebuild for lucid and test it17:34
gnomefreakand links dont work it in damn17:36
micahggnomefreak: I can push a backport to my backports PPA if you like17:38
gnomefreakmicahg: i remember why i couldnt add ingnoreabi to /xorg.conf. i am unablet o have that file i have to remove it to get any kind of UI17:38
micahggnomefreak: yeah, xorg.conf is gone by default17:38
gnomefreakmicahg: that works for me.17:38
gnomefreakif i add the file i get no UI and adding ingoreabi fails to help it drops me into TTY for some damn reason, but if i get everything backed up i will upgrade this box17:44
gnomefreakmaybe next week sometime17:45

ftajdstrand, mdeslaur: could we rush for chromium 5.0.375.127 in lucid? i foresee another hot security update in less than a week21:18
mdeslaurjdstrand: ^ are we waiting for gyp to make it to -updates before we can build chromium for -proposed?21:23
mdeslaurjdstrand: or can we just pocket-copy chromium-browser now?21:23
ftai see 13 security fixes for the next one, but i seems it will be v6, hence, it will need the new ffmpeg codecs too21:34
fta-i+it21:34
mdeslaurfta: ouch21:36
ftamdeslaur, yeah, but i prefer to land more releases with fixes rather than live with those vulnerabilities21:37
mdeslaurfta: definitely21:40
mdeslaurfta: oh, ffmpeg has it's own chromium package...cool...I thought it was the system ffmpeg21:42

jdstrandmdeslaur: I have gyp in the ubuntu-security-proposed21:55
jdstrandmdeslaur: meh21:57
jdstrandwhat is in -proposed was built with -updates21:58
mdeslaurd'oh21:59
jdstrandlooking at the build log, we should be ok to copy it to -security when it is time21:59
jdstrandthe same version is in -proposed and ubuntu-security-proposed :(21:59
jdstrandI think I am going to just pocket copy chromium21:59
mdeslaurjdstrand: how did it get built with -updates, wasn't it pocket-copied from the one in ubuntu-security-proposed?21:59
jdstrandI don't think so-- was it?22:00
* jdstrand goes to see22:00
mdeslaurjdstrand: oh, I thought you had did it :)22:00
jdstrandno22:00
jdstrandI think it was just uploaded22:00
jdstrandalright, I'll copy chromium, then rebuild gyp and copy it to -proposed to be safe22:01
mdeslaurjdstrand: sounds good22:01
mdeslaurfta: if we update any other dependencies like that in the future, we need to build them in the security PPA so we can copy it to -security, and not just -updates22:02
ftak22:02
mdeslaurfta: it's a little complicated for security updates as some people only use the -security repository for stability reasons22:03
jdstrandfta, mdeslaur: copied22:08
mdeslaurjdstrand: thanks!22:08
jdstrandfta, mdeslaur: uploaded ubuntu2 for gyp to ubuntu-security-proposed22:19

chrisccoulson[reed] - the status of the lucid task for linux-backports-modules would suggest it's already in lucid-proposed for testing22:42
chrisccoulson(although i'm not particularly familiar with how the kernel team works)22:42

chrisccoulsonso i won't be working again until tuesday next week23:02
micahgchrisccoulson: k, I'll watch for regressions/new builds on FF3.6.9 and take appropriate action, thanks for the heads up23:03
chrisccoulsonthanks23:03
micahgchrisccoulson: enjoy your day off :)23:03
chrisccoulsoni need to get someone to approve ff3.6.9 actually. i'd like to see it built and published before i get up in the morning23:03
micahghopefully I'll have the xul192 nspr issue solved by tuesday23:03
chrisccoulsoncool, thanks23:04
micahgchrisccoulson: well, if it's not built by Sat night, I'll try to get someone to push it through23:04
micahgI'm about to take off as well, ttyl23:05
chrisccoulsonok, no problem23:06
micahgchrisccoulson: if I get the issue solved, is it worth me trying to find someone to push up the builds for Thunderbird/xulrunner-1.9.2 or can it wait till you get back tuesday?23:06
chrisccoulsoni'll speak to you on tuesday (although i might pop online occasionally at the weekend)23:06
chrisccoulsontuesday will probably be a bit late to do any more builds, so those will likely have to wait until after beta23:07
[reed]chrisccoulson: what holiday is Monday?23:07
micahgchrisccoulson: even in the security PPA?23:07
chrisccoulson[reed] - it's just a public holiday here in the UK23:07
chrisccoulsonit's the "summer" bank holiday, although it doesn't feel much like summer ;)23:07
chrisccoulsonmicahg, oh, yeah, we can get them in to the security PPA23:08
micahgchrisccoulson: that's what I'm wondering, should I get one of the security people to push to the security PPA or wait till you get back tuesday23:08
chrisccoulsoni don't mind. i suppose it can probably wait until tuesday23:08
