vish: ah!08:41
vishand471: i'm actually thinking about how best we can address some of those descriptions... there are a few concerns that changing it in Ubuntu increases workload.. so i'm trying to get some process in place before actually closing a few bugs..08:46
and471vish, yeah we want to change it in debian and ubuntu08:46
and471vish, that is what I have tried to do (where possible)08:46
and471vish, maybe you could create a small app for the SC papercutters that files in the right places, downloads a debian copy to make a patch on.. etc.08:55
vishand471: https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/rosetta/+question/120619 is an idea mvo had as a workaround for a while08:56

seb128TheMuso, hi09:59
seb128TheMuso, you still have a workitem on the wallpaper competition spec09:59
seb128TheMuso, do you still plan to work on it?09:59
chrisccoulsonhi pitti. is there anything else i need to do regarding my e-mail to the technical-board about chromium security updates?10:08
chrisccoulsoni've got a work-item to get a process in place by beta ;)10:08
pittichrisccoulson: it seems to me that as of today we don't have a viable solution for this? I didn't see an agreement there10:14
seb128re10:18
seb128chrisccoulson, pitti: hey10:18
pittihey seb12810:18
seb128the work item is not for beta but still nice to get that sorted10:18
seb128the goal is to know what it would take to support it correctly by UDS10:19
seb128which means having the security update and the translation processes sorted10:20
chrisccoulsonhi seb12810:21
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, i was wondering what i can do to try and reach an agreement (so we can just upload new versions to -security like we do with firefox)10:22
pittichrisccoulson: do you know if there's some effort to get access to new releases a week in advance, so that we have a chance to do some QA?10:24
seb128they don't want to do that it seems10:24
seb128they don't want to wait a week to get updates rolling10:24
chrisccoulsonpitti - our security team will get notifications for security issues, which will give us some time to prepare and test a release10:25
chrisccoulsonbut it won't be as long as we get with mozilla10:25
seb128trying to do qa on our side will not work10:25
pittichrisccoulson: oh, that's news; could you send that to the thread? so far I was under the impression that these are 0-day releases10:26
seb128let's be realistic we can't correctly test updates in the timeframe they have10:27
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, sure. i can send that10:27
seb128chrisccoulson, do you think we can do correct testing?10:28
seb128do they have an upstream official ppa or something?10:28
seb128shouldn't we just give that to user in s-c and stop trying to package it10:28
seb128ie just connect directly upstream to users and let users complain to upstream if they have issues10:28
chrisccoulsonseb128 - it will be difficult for us to do proper testing, but even the testing we do with firefox is fairly limited10:28
seb128that's what the chromium guys want anyway it seems10:29
chrisccoulsonseb128 - the issue with that is upstream don't provide official builds of chromium10:29
chrisccoulson(they only provide chrome)10:29
seb128would they be wanting to?10:29
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure about that10:29
seb128can we talk to them about it?10:29
seb128did somebody try to talk to them about it?10:29
chrisccoulsonalso, kees is not keen on us shipping upstream builds, as they don't benefit from any of the platform hardening that the security team work on10:29
chrisccoulsons/any/some/10:30
seb128who is going to do the security updates? kees' team?10:31
seb128it just seems to me that realistically we can't do a great job of it10:31
chrisccoulsonit will probably be me who does the security updates ;)10:32
seb128there is no way that will work imho10:32
seb128you are already overworked without those10:32
seb128but ressources are a different topic10:34
seb128let's sort how we can deal with it and then figure who has time to do it10:34
seb128chrisccoulson, how long would they let us access before rolling out the updates publically?10:35
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure. they seem to prefer doing a release as soon as they fix a problem, which means that the window in which we can prepare our update and do some testing will always be quite small10:36
seb128right, that was the impression I got10:36
seb128we should talk to them about having a chromium ppa where they push their updates10:37
seb128ie sort of an official upstream ppa for it10:37
seb128so we would build it with our build option and security set10:37

kenvandineRiddell, is U1 working ok in kubuntu? did those issues get addressed?17:36

Riddellapachelogger has written a KDE frontend to it but it needs kwallet support still17:37
kenvandineok17:37
kenvandinesigh...17:37
kenvandineok, well moving on i guess :)17:38
* kenvandine hands mic back to seb12817:38
Riddellonline services needs to learn how to work with the community really17:38
seb128thanks kenvandine17:38
seb128Riddell, was there any interaction between them and the kubuntu team this cycle?17:39
kenvandineRiddell, i'll bring that up with them17:39
Riddellseb128: no, only bits here and there when apachelogger asked.  they don't even have a mailing list as far as I know17:39
seb128ok, something to improve next cycle17:39
kenvandineyeah, i'll raise that17:39
seb128dx is better nowadays than ols for that17:39
kenvandinewe can make that better17:40
seb128ok, let's move on17:40
seb128we can but not today there ;-)17:40
seb128Riddell, since you are there, kubuntu update?17:40
Riddell - ubiquity was troublesome but evan stayed up late to fix bugs, but I suspect there's some more bugs to iron out yet17:40
Riddell - kdebindings and rdepends building on ARM now, am hopeful for images ready for beta17:40
Riddell - KDE SC 4.5.1 out today, will upload after beta17:40
Riddell - mpris 2 support got into Amarok thanks to Aurelien17:40
Riddell - http://tinyurl.com/33p7vu3 5 milestoned bugs, hopefully 2 are fixed already, probably more to come after beta17:40
seb128quite short list of milestone bugs ;-)17:41
rodrigo_Riddell, seb128: we have talked with apachelogger about the changes17:41
Riddellseb128: it'll grow I'm sure17:41
rodrigo_he knows at least since 2/3 weeks ago17:41
rodrigo_and we have a mailing list -> ubuntuone-users@17:42
seb128rodrigo_, ok17:42
seb128let's discuss that after the meeting maybe17:42
rodrigo_ok17:42
seb128does anybody has questions or comments for Riddell?17:42
seb128Riddell, thanks17:42
seb128didrocks, hey17:43
seb128didrocks, UNE update?17:43
didrockshey o/ seb128 made the release. All was troubleless near the swimming pool for me in the meantime. Wonderful experience on my side :)17:43
didrocksmore seriously, a lot of bug fix last week from what I saw, but still some17:43
kenvandinehehe17:43
didrocksseb128 and I are making some last minute dx update for beta17:44
didrocksmore bug fixing in the two coming weeks and MT support landing this release17:44
didrocksany questions/remarks on annoying bug not listed yet?17:44
seb128to clarify the previous week version has gesture support17:45
didrocks(there will be some little ui changes too, but UNE is less impacted as there is no documentation AFAIK)17:45
seb128but extra use of that and change are still coming this week, after that they will stop it seems17:45
seb128didrocks, do you want to mention the banshee situation?17:45
didrockssure17:45
didrocksso, banshee will have a new release tomorrow17:45
didrockswith finally udev backend17:46
didrocksno more hal17:46
didrocksbut that requires no components (already packaged) and coordination with Laney and hyperair17:46
didrocksnew gpod release too17:46
didrocksso, seems risky17:46
didrocksin any case, what we can do is landing that in the current universe package (we are on a unstable release in any case)17:46
seb128do you know if somebody tested the musicstore recently on banshee?17:46
didrocksask for testing on OMGUbuntu site and get user testing17:47
didrocksI didn't for a month, I don't know if other have done17:47
seb128ok17:47
didrocksit was working great (apart from the empty mp3 file not included)17:47
seb128so let's get the update in universe this week17:47
seb128can you take an action to check the musicstore for next week?17:48
didrocksadded to my TODO :)17:48
pedro_gpod? is banshee using gpod now?17:48
seb128thanks17:48
seb128pedro_, yes ;-)17:48
pedro_cool, i hate podsleuth.17:48
seb128ok17:48
seb128thanks didrocks17:48

seb128tremolux, hey17:49
seb128tremolux, software-center update?17:49
tremoluxhi seb12817:49
tremoluxyou bet17:49
tremoluxBuy Something: Enabled by default for beta, serverside compoments to go live this week for limited testing, focus on bugfixing now17:49
tremoluxNew Apps: Custom metadata fix from Launchpad team to go live on next LP update (target Sep. 8th)17:49
tremoluxUI Enhancements: New addons feature merged; many thanks to devildante for this feature, and thanks to kiwinote as well17:49
tremoluxmvo implemented a very effective (and well-received) "where is it" feature for locating installed apps in the menu17:49
tremolux(more details on wiki, thanks!)17:49
tremoluxso, lots of things in for beta, now testing and bugfixing17:50
tremoluxany questions or comments?17:50
seb128nice to see the buy something getting there17:50
tremoluxyes17:50
seb128so you wrote that there is a rt for extras.ubuntu.com17:50
tremoluxyes17:50
seb128did you get any reply on that yet?17:50
seb128do they have any estimation on when that will be done?17:51
tremoluxI haven't, but it's not *urgent* yet17:51
seb128well, it's not urgent but better in a week than in a month still17:51
tremoluxyes, exactly17:51
seb128thanks for tracking that in any case ;-)17:51
tremoluxI've pinged elmo again, and raised it in our weekly s-c meeting17:52
seb128ok, great17:52
seb128is the screenshot item something you still think will get done this cycle?17:52
seb128"support screenshots for apps in extras.ubuntu.com (see screenshots for third party spec): TODO"17:52
tremoluxI think the issue there is where the screenshots will be stored17:52
seb128that's sort of why I'm asking17:53
seb128if that's not sorted yet seems it's getting late?17:53
seb128do you have status updates on those changes somewhere?17:53
tremoluxyes, agreed, I will check that17:53
seb128thanks17:53
tremoluxI think that one has been on the back-burner, but you are right to point it out and thanks for that17:54
seb128let me know during the week if you get a status update17:54
tremoluxsounds good, I will17:54
seb128thanks tremolux17:54
seb128that's all from me17:54

tremoluxhello pedro_!17:55
pedro_glad to be here :-)17:55
seb128pedro_, the mic is yours ;-)17:55
pedro_ok so i'd like to raise some bugs to your attention17:55
pedro_bug 58601217:55
ubot2Launchpad bug 586012 in xfce4-panel (Ubuntu) (and 2 other projects) "[Maverick] XFCE system tray became unusable after libgtk upgrade (affects: 13) (dups: 4) (heat: 88)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/58601217:55
pedro_what would be the final word on that one?17:55
pedro_latest comment said it will be reviewed after alpha2 and we're getting there17:56
seb128it seemed that it was due to gtk rgba changes17:56
seb128which we dropped since, they were not ready17:56
pedro_summary: gtk rgba changes17:56
seb128could you check with the submitter if that's still an issue?17:56
pedro_right so they are not going to be enabled in maverick?17:56
pedro_seb128, yes17:56
seb128pedro_, no rgba in maverick no17:57
seb128we turned it off and it's staying this way17:57
pedro_ok i'll talk with the xfce guys17:57
seb128thanks17:57
pedro_the other bug: bug 62351617:57
ubot2Launchpad bug 623516 in empathy (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "empathy crashed because depend on package telepathy-logger (affects: 5) (dups: 2) (heat: 28)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62351617:57
pedro_they are requesting a depends on the telepathy-logger17:57
seb128ok, we discussed that today on #telepathy17:57
pedro_probably is too late to do that?17:57
seb128we will change the recommends to a depends after beta17:57
seb128it's not an issue for new install and should not be for upgrades17:58
seb128out of people not getting  recommends for some reason17:58
pedro_ok will update the bug to reflect that so we keep on the track17:58
seb128but indeed we should fix that17:58
seb128I will make sure it goes in after beta17:58
seb128pedro_, thanks17:58
pedro_i have a couple for lucid that might be good to look as well: bug 60985517:58

pedro_again, youtube is broken17:58
seb128I guess it's another server side change17:59
seb128I will check that later on17:59
pedro_the change doesn't seems to be too bad http://git.gnome.org/browse/totem/commit/?id=50027abd715acc24978e7830162c70c7e1a0581117:59

pedro_that bug ^ is fixed on Maverick, but still as fix committed18:00
pedro_could get commit someone to make the fix that in Lucid?18:00
chrisccoulsonb'ah, i was meant to upload the stable gnome-terminal to lucid ages ago ;)18:00
seb128pedro_, ok, feel free to close it then, we will get somebody working on the lucid update18:00
seb128chrisccoulson, ^18:00
seb128so it's yours ;-)18:00
chrisccoulsonyeah, i'd planned on doing it ages ago, then forgot about it18:00
pedro_ok i'll accept the nomination there then18:00

pedro_the change is not too aggressive either and it would make us look even better18:01
seb128would be nice, that's fixed in gtk3 but the changes don't seem trivial for current gtk18:01
pedro_ah it's on gtk3 mm...18:01
seb128well I think it relies on the layout changes in gtk318:01
seb128pedro_, any other one?18:02
pedro_i'm not a developer ;-) so would be nice if someone could investigate18:02
seb128yeah, we will18:02
pedro_yes just a couple18:02
pedro_these are the ones that would be nice to keep an eye18:02

seb128ok18:04
seb128I will check out on those later18:04
pedro_so just keep an eye in case those could affect a more wider audience, i'm keeping tracks of those but is never bad to have an extra pair of eyes there18:04
seb128I don't think we need to discuss every bug in the meeting18:04
seb128right18:04
pedro_no that's ok18:04
seb128pedro_, great list, thanks18:04
pedro_seb128, that's all from here unless there's a question18:04

seb128so I can try to have a quick overview before the meeting18:04
seb128thanks18:04
pedro_chrisccoulson, i'll add some for next meeting18:05
seb128pedro_, otherwise any special concern about the release?18:05
seb128any component you think is buggy or should get special care?18:05
pedro_i'm a bit worried about two things18:05
pedro_the changes on gtk that are making apps to crash18:05
pedro_like rhythmbox, evolution, etc18:05
seb128right, I'm working on dx for those18:05
chrisccoulsonyeah, i'm finding appmenu-gtk is crashing nearly everything that doesn't export a menu right now18:05
pedro_i'm counting libindicate as part of that as well18:05
seb128it's mainly their appmenu thing18:05
chrisccoulsonincluding nm-applet18:06
pedro_and the retracers being broken :-(18:06
seb128right, that's blocked on launchpad18:06
pedro_i hope we don't miss any important crash18:06
pedro_right18:06
seb128I'm trying to push them but they move slowly18:06
seb128I'm concerned about that as well18:06
pedro_besides that i think the release is looking good so far18:06
seb128hopefully that gets fixed this week18:06
pedro_for next cycle would be nice to see more coordination with the dx team to get those changes earlier18:07
seb128the appmenu-gtk crash for things not exporting a menu might be fixing in trunk18:07
seb128if somebody wants to try18:07
chrisccoulsonyeah, i'll try that later18:07
seb128pedro_, we do try but they tend to be busy ;-)18:07

jason__How can I given different applications different desktop geometries. I have a kiosk application that uses the right 1/4 of the screen for status information. I don't want the user to be able to move applications like vlc and flash windows into the right 1/4 of the screen even if they run in full screen mode.21:31
RAOFjason__: This is the wrong channel for that sort of question (it's about development _of_ ubuntu, not development _on_ ubuntu).23:43
RAOFjason__: That said, you want to look into the WM_STRUT window hint.23:43
TheMusoRAOF: Interesting news re ATI hardware being rebranded.23:50
