penguin42is it expected there are still a bunch of 2.30 Gnome packages in Maverick - is it just nothing interesting changed since 2.30 ?00:08

ari-tczewpenguin42: gradually packages are upgraded to 2.32.00:39
ari-tczewif you want this process faster, please help developers in packaging00:39
penguin42ari-tczew: OK, I'd kind of expected all the main ones to be the same as the gnome release in use; e.g. gedit and hnome-panel00:39
penguin42ari-tczew: It wasn't a criticism, just a curiosity00:40
ari-tczewpenguin42: everything in its time00:40
desrtthe plan is to do 2.30 -> 2.32 upgrades during the stable release?01:02
desrtmadness....01:03
RAOFSome of them will be because of transitions that we didn't want to go through, IIRC.  Particularly gsettings?01:07
desrtmaverick is already making extensive use of gsettings01:07
desrta fact that i find terrifying, quite frankly01:07
penguin42gedit seemed surprisingly harmless not to have moved forward01:08
Sarvattit was just translation updates01:08
Laneyhuh, that's not the plan01:08
desrti hope not :)01:09
desrtjumping minors during a stable cycle seems a little bit loopy01:09
Laneythe plan was to do updates which were feasible, ie didn't rely on too new technologies01:09
Laney*before* release, i.e. by now01:09
desrtLaney: that plan went out the window pretty quick :)01:09
Laneygtk3 is an example01:09
desrtno 2.32.0 package needs gtk301:10
Laneyyeah01:10
* desrt is just happy you guys made it to glib-2.26.001:10
Laneyanyway it was a conservative cycle for gnome updates01:10
Laneyit was a conservative cycle in general for gnome upstream too01:10
desrtupgrading from the release candidate to the latest archive versions causes the system to explode01:11
desrtso good to get that one out of the way before-hand :)01:11
Laneyfun01:11
desrtit wasn't a conservative upstream cycle at all01:11
desrtbetween GDBus, GSettings, GApplication, ...01:11

desrtthat's fair01:13

nigelbmorning pitti :)06:30
pittihey nigelb, how are you?06:31
nigelbpitti: as good as I can be on a monday morning :p06:32
nigelbHow about you? :)06:32
pittipretty well, had a nice weekend06:33
nigelb:)06:33
nigelbI think my ears are now functional afer yesterday's concert :D06:34
pittioh, you played?06:34
nigelbnah, I was helping set up things and sat right in the front with the amps :)06:35
nigelb(I don't play at all)06:35
ajmitchmorning pitti, nigelb06:38
RAOFHowdy all!06:38
pittihey RAOF, good morning!06:41
RAOFGood weekend pitti?06:42
pittiRAOF: yes indeed! we invited some friends to make the traditional onion cake with "Federweisser", and went for a hike yesterday06:42
nigelbHowdy ajmitch, RAOF :)06:42
RAOFSounds like fun, although I may have to google that cake :)06:43
pittiRAOF: "Federweisser" is not a cake, it's a kind of wine06:52
RAOFThe onion cake is, I presume, a cake, though?06:52
RAOF:)06:52
RAOFI guessed that the Federweisser was alcohol of some description.06:52
pittiRAOF: yes; pretty much a pizza dough with lots of onions and some sauce/cheese06:53
RAOFMmmm.06:53
RAOFSounds like I'd probably call that a bread.  A delicious bread!06:53
nigelblol06:53
nigelbthe cake was a lie!06:54
pittiRAOF: not quite -- http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.koepf.de/images/rezepte/zwiebelkuchen4.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.koepf.de/rezepte_zwiebelkuchen.html&h=285&w=450&sz=28&tbnid=iVfHbEEGHU0TcM:&tbnh=80&tbnw=127&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dzwiebelkuchen&zoom=1&q=zwiebelkuchen&usg=__7CNJAXtiPPoNTOpZyhoD0yoX7R8=&sa=X&ei=BWypTMCQCdCKswb_tKSYDA&ved=0CC8Q9QEwBQ06:54
nigelbomg, that looks yummy.06:55
RAOFI'd probably _still_ call that a bread.  A pizza-bread type thing.06:55
RAOFIt does, indeed, look yummy.06:55
pittiand after frying and baking 4 kg of onions your kitchen smells "interesting", too :)06:56
RAOFThat's a lot of onions!  How big does the cake end up?06:56
pittitwo oven trays06:57
nigelbI wonder if you took pictures :)06:57
RAOFI take it that there were quite a lot of friends over :)06:58
pittiyeah, 6 of them06:58
pittiRAOF: the onions get steamed before baking, though, so they melt together quite a lot; so it's not actually that bad06:59
RAOFSounds full of salicylic acid!07:00
RAOFOr whatever it is that's in onions.07:00
nigelbheh07:03

mvoin merry old london?08:11
rickspencer3pitti, I'm not quite there yet08:11
pittijust like maverick :)08:11
rickspencer3still hanging out in Amsterdam08:11
rickspencer3lol08:11
rickspencer3riiiggght08:11
rickspencer3I'm going to catch a ferry to England this evening08:11
pittioh, why's that?08:11
rickspencer3pitti, mvo, what's the word on the street?08:11
pittisome problem with the airports?08:11
rickspencer3no more bugs to fix?08:11
rickspencer3pitti, nah, I just wanted to try the night ferry08:12
pittirickspencer3: I haven't kept my ear closely to the street this time, TBH08:12
mvono OMG mails in my INBOX so far08:12
rickspencer3it's cheaper than a hotel room, and seemed nice08:12
pittirickspencer3: the VNC bug just got fixed08:12
* desrt fixes that for mvo08:12
rickspencer3mvo, great news!08:12
* rickspencer3 kicks desrt08:12
pittino other OMGs that I could see08:12
rickspencer3cool08:12
rickspencer3let's lock down maverick, turn our sites to Natty08:12
pittithere's two things that regressed for me that I can see08:13
rickspencer3time to start registering blueprints!08:13
pittibut otherwise it's pretty solid08:13
* rickspencer3 burries head in sand08:13
rickspencer3pitti, besides boot time, what regressed?08:13
pittirickspencer3: when I remove an USB stick, I get a silly nautilus error about "can't display computer:///"08:13
rickspencer3oh?08:13
rickspencer3I don't think that happens to me08:13
pittiand gnome-settings-daemon now wants to be too clever about changing resolution08:14
rickspencer3anyway, if that's the worse you got08:14
pittiwhich is a mis-feature08:14
pittii. e. not a bug in the "oops, how could this happen" sense08:14
didrocksgood morning08:14
pittineither of those are world breakers, of course08:14
pittihey didrocks08:14
rickspencer3I saw in the brainstorming threads that lots of folks want to do some good multi-mon stuff08:14
rickspencer3hi didrocks08:14
didrocksGuten Morgen pitti, how are you?08:14
pittirickspencer3: boot speed regression is pretty ridiculous indeed, but I hope it's just a local problem smoehow08:14
didrockshey rickspencer3, how was your travel? :)08:15
rickspencer3pitti, well, to be sure, I haven't noticed it, and it wasn't picked up marjo's lab08:15
pittirickspencer3: in my case it's docked vs. undocked, i. e. just one monitor at a time08:15
rickspencer3didrocks, so far so good08:15
rickspencer3Amsterdam was amazing this weekend, wonderful weather08:15
pittirickspencer3: ok, so perhaps it's due to btrfs08:15
pittithat it has to wait for 10 s for the root fs08:15
pittididrocks: pretty well, thanks! went for a hike yesterday, and had some friends for cooking and dinner on Saturday08:15
rickspencer3pitti, you might have mentioned that in your response to the perfomance thread!08:16
rickspencer3:)08:16
pittirickspencer3: it just came to my mind :)08:16
pittianyway, I'll reinstall this box this week for testing the final images08:16
rickspencer3well, good to keep in mind if we look for btrfs in Natty08:16
pittirickspencer3: hm, no; my August install had btrfs, too08:17
RAOFpitti: There's that *horrible* btrfs write-performance regression in btrfs for Maverick, but that's probably not the cause of boot-time problems.08:18
RAOFUnless something's trying to write enough out to disc during boot to trigger it.08:18
mvodidrocks: hello! is is you smarter-app-filtering-level aimed for 3.0 ?08:27
didrocksmvo: if it can do it as part as an SRU, it will be good. I'm tweaked OneConf to be compatible with both versions08:27

dpmgood morning didrocks. I'll misuse you as support center for unity again, if that's ok. On the netbook where I've got unity, when logging in using the normal desktop session, all windows are opened without the maximize, close, and minimize buttons. I cannot right-click on the menu bar, either. Any ideas on how to restore the buttons?11:36
pittisounds like it's trying the global menu bar there?11:36
didrocksdpm: if you Alt + click with the mouse and drag it somewhere else, doesn't the decorator appear?11:38
didrocksdpm: do you save your session or something fun like that? :)11:38
dpmdidrocks, yeah, they appear when I drag them. No, I haven't saved the session for years, since I realised that it didn't quite work :)11:39
didrocksdpm: ok, so the application is saving its position, and so the decorator is hidden under gnome-panel, right?11:40
dpmdidrocks, now that you are saying, I'd guess so11:40
didrocksdpm: not sure we can easily fix that though :/11:41
dpmdidrocks, oh, so it's not an issue with settings, but rather a bug? Does this affect all 1024px-wide screens?11:42
dpmit used to be fine with the earlier UNR and switching back and forth between desktop and UNR sessions11:43
didrocksdpm: it affects all computers when you run unity and switch to desktop I would say. The decorator is hidden in unity, so the position of the window is saved (from the topmost of it), but then, when you readd decorator and such, the position shouldn't be the same11:43
didrocksyeah, because it was a separate process which removed decoratoros11:43
didrocksdecorators11:43
didrockshere, it's mutter stripping them11:43
dpmdidrocks, ok, so shall I just go along and file a bug?11:44
didrocksdpm: sure11:44
didrocksagainst unity upstream and unity package itself11:44
didrocks(it's the plugin which strips than)11:44

dpmhi seb128, I'm asking you because you were the last uploader. I realize it might be way too late for maverick, in which case we might have to leave it for natty, but it seems that the Launchpad translations were not imported for xdg-user-dirs (bug 549088). Would it be possible to include them in the package?12:56

seb128nobody picked up on the task12:57
dpmseb128, no worries, thanks for the clarification - and I hope you had some nice holidays :) I don't think they are that critical, so if they cannot be exported this cycle, let's aim for the next. Do you think there might be a better way to track when they need to be exported in case you are not around? We've got them listed on the wiki and we reuse bugs for some of them: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NonLanguagePackTranslationDeadline I'm just wondering if13:02

asacdidrocks: i915 is his13:04
seb128dpm, rather than having us to figure where to go in launchpad to get an export etc13:05
didrocksasac: not with intel, there is something with i965, but not that one… davidbarth ^^13:05

davidbarthCimi: looks like the triangle needs to be adjusted then13:55
davidbarthCimi: let's see with chaotic what he thinks13:56
Cimidavidbarth: we have two solutions13:56
chaoticdavidbarth: looks a bit close13:57
Cimidavidbarth: 1) add 1 px of padding around each side of the icon, that will enlarge menuitem's height (which is *ugly*)13:57
davidbarthchaotic: right, but now the icons at the top of the menu do have a more consistent size13:57
Cimidavidbarth: 2) reduce the dimension of the triangle, or its aspect ratio13:58
davidbarththe triangle size is based on the equivalent indicator in unity13:58
Cimidavidbarth: another consideration: we have to take in mind that the most used icons (chat, email, broadcast, pidgin) work much better13:58
davidbarthie, the markers for active applications are 5x9 in unity a.t.m.13:58
Cimidavidbarth: so I would stick with the current situation13:59
Cimiit's much better to have the triangle close to the icon13:59
Cimidavidbarth: than every menuitem with 2px of more height14:00
Cimidavidbarth: because a different approach (just adding padding to the left of the icon)14:00
Cimidavidbarth: requires patching gtk+ which is not acceptable as we are in freeze14:00
Cimidavidbarth: if it's ok for you I'll have my interview with seb14:01
Cimidavidbarth: do you need anything else?14:01
davidbarthCimi: go ahed, i'm just comparing screenshots; i think we'll have to shrink the triangle14:04
davidbarthchaotic: would that be ok to shrink it a bit?14:04

dpmhey pitti, afternoon. It seems that the language-selector translation was not exported in the latest language pack, and thus it is untranslated in all languages. I've re-checked that the template has got the "Include translations for this template in language packs?" checkbox active and it has, so I can't understand why this has happened.

asacdidrocks: unity has all those widgets and elements right? ... is there a way to set an env or setting disable a few (or all) of them?16:09
didrocksasac: you mean, the systray and some indicators?16:09
Cimidavidbarth: do you have skype?16:09
didrocksasac: you just need to not install the corresponding indicator service element16:09
asaclike disable places and launcher etc16:09
asacdidrocks: no i mean real clutter actors16:10
asacnot sure what in unity is really a clutter actor, but i think places launcher panel to begin with ;)16:10
didrocksasac: for places, just remove the place corresponding package16:10
didrocksand for launcher, it's just a set of favorites in gconf (/desktop/unity)16:10
asaci dont care atm about anythingthat is not started by mutter --plugin=libunity-mutter16:10
davidbarthCimi: sure16:11
asacdidrocks: i dont want to remove individual places or launchers ....  i want to remove the whole places and launcher facility16:11
didrocksasac: I think there no such way apart from removing the packages (or deleting /usr/share/unity/places/*) and changing the gconf keys16:12
didrocksyou can't remove the launcher itself16:12

asacnjpatel_: why is http://paste.ubuntu.com/505929/ supposed to fail?20:27
asacthe test fails for me because it seems its not failing here20:28
njpatel_asac, because the overloaded function is meant to be called20:28
njpatel_asac, but if your using a no-effects branch, it's probably not even reaching that point20:29
njpatel_asac, it probably needs to be disabled/reworked20:29
asacnjpatel_: no-effects branch? AFAUI our gles port has effects20:30
asacits strange. i think all tests were working for jazh and also work for alf_ on his beagle, but for me it fails with software mesa gles20:31
asac  actor = ctk_effect_get_actor (effect);20:31
asac  g_return_if_fail (CLUTTER_IS_ACTOR (actor));20:31
asacnjpatel_: so thats supposed to fail, right?20:31
njpatel_that test doesn't even do anything special with gl, it's just meant to use the warning sysem to catch that the ctk_effect_paint() call was handled by the right functions20:31
njpatel_asac, yep20:32
asachmm20:32
asacso you say that func is not called by our impl? let me add a print there20:32
njpatel_maybe the code changed and they didnt' update the test?20:32
asacwho is "they"? linaro?20:33
asacnjpatel_: ? or your team?20:33
njpatel_yes, sorry20:33
njpatel_team20:33
asacso yeah the ctk_effect_test_paint seems to be not called at all now20:33
njpatel_though Im just guessing there20:33
* asac check if CtkEffectClass has paint func still20:34
asacok seems running the tests from top level directory was a bad idea to start with ;)20:36
asacbut it didnt cure Paint :/20:37
asacnjpatel_: so do you know if /Effect/Paint works for you atm with gl?20:40

seb128cyphermox_, mterry: I've dropped some extra infos on the bug21:48
seb128there are probably different things there21:49
seb128one issue is that g-s-d picks wrong configs in some cases21:50
seb128the other one is that g-s-d should probably let xorg alone by default21:50
seb128cyphermox_, I don't think it's specific to crt monitors21:53
chrisccoulsonright, that's more RAM on order :-)21:55

seb128or do you just sell what you have a buy higher capacity chips21:57

ari-tczewmicahg: I can prepare a patch for fix it, if there are not any plans about upgrade.22:15
micahgari-tczew: how about just doing the merge?22:16
ari-tczewmicahg: no problem for me. what about ubuntu-release?22:17
micahgari-tczew: well, the question is any of this from .3-.6 not bug fix: http://git.gnome.org/browse/epiphany/tree/NEWS?id=74c744ef90bfbc260da5c1dcb705132851e49e7a22:17
ari-tczewmicahg: do you asking about new features since 3-6 ?22:21
micahgari-tczew: yeah, if it's bug fix only, no release ACK needed, but you got the ACK anyways, so go to it :)22:21
ari-tczewmicahg: upstream changelog seems to say that the most changes are 'fix', so I think that there are not UI/API changes.22:27
ari-tczewmicahg: so it's ok for merge (technical), but no policy. there are a lot of bugs requested in LP, I22:28
chrisccoulsonit's only a stable update, it will be fine22:28
ari-tczewI might to spend a lot of time for triaging.22:28
micahgari-tczew: right, but technically any "enhancements" need  release team ACK22:28
ari-tczewmicahg: ScottK as ubuntu-release is abstained for this one, so I think I can prepare a merge22:29
micahgari-tczew: yes, right, I already said that above as well :)22:29
* micahg is curious if epiphany falls under the GNOME SRU exemption though22:29
=== bjf is now known as bjf[afk]
* ari-tczew feels a little bit proud due to merging epiphany-browser. :P22:29
ari-tczewmicahg, chrisccoulson: what do you think about merge without traging 140 bugs?22:33
micahgari-tczew: it's fine22:33
ari-tczewlazy is a little reason, but I don't have too much free time to triaging22:33
ari-tczewanyway, it's sad22:34
micahgari-tczew: have you seen the number of New Firefox and Thunderbird bugs :)22:34
ari-tczewpedro_: ping22:34
micahgari-tczew: I try to look through the bugs when I do a merge, but that's quite a few to worry about, we should have another bug day got epiphany maybe :)22:35
ari-tczewpedro_: unping, my mistake, sorry.22:35
seb128epiphany-browser is a GNOME component22:35
seb128but it's late in the cycle even for GNOME updates22:35
micahgseb128: in general though, even though it's unseeded, it still has the SRU exemption?22:35
ari-tczewseb128: so, merge is not possible?22:35
seb128the exception has nothing to do with where the component is in the archive22:35
ari-tczew(right now)22:36
micahgseb128: cool, so gnome-shell would be the same thing then?22:36
seb128GNOME has an exception because they schedule matches ours22:36
seb128they also have string freezes, code freezes, etc22:36
seb128no, g-s is not an official GNOME component22:36
seb128yet22:36
seb128it didn't have any stable release22:36
seb128ari-tczew, not sure what you call merge22:37
micahgseb128: ah, ok, is that the way to tell22:37
seb128now is not the time to do merges on debian22:37
ari-tczewseb128: merge 2.30.6 from Debian unstable22:37
seb128you can upload an update or bugfix backport though22:37
ari-tczewseb128: another way is apply patch to fix this one.22:37
seb128the less change, the easier the review, the better to get it accepted by release team22:37
seb128so you should probably just backport the fix you need yes22:38
ari-tczewseb128: backport one patch? lol22:38
micahgseb128: unseeded freeze is Wed at noon UTC22:38
seb128ari-tczew, why lol?22:39
ari-tczewseb128: I think that the best call for this one is cherry pick22:39
seb128I'm not a native english speaker22:39
ari-tczewseb128: I'm not too.22:39
seb128but you can make fun of my english vocabulary if you want22:39
seb128it's not very constructive though22:39
ari-tczewseb128: btw. bug fixes for universe no need ACK ubuntu-release.22:40
ari-tczewkklimonda: ping22:40
seb128nothing need specific ack to get uploaded22:40
seb128but ubuntu-release will review uploads in the queue and accept those or not22:40
ari-tczewseb128: new upstream release needs ACK.22:40
seb128no22:41
seb128non bug fix upload need acks22:41
ari-tczewperhaps22:42
seb128if the new version is a stable update fixing only issues you can upload22:42
seb128it's better to have a bug corresponding to the upload in any case22:42
ari-tczewseb128: so, new upstream bug-fix release can upload without ACK22:42
seb128yes22:42
seb128things will be acked or not when they are reviewed in the queue22:42
ari-tczewOK, let's summarize our discussion.22:43
ari-tczewThe better way to fix one bug is upload one patch instead merging new upstream from Debian.22:43
seb128yes22:43
ari-tczewI'm going to prepare a patch and test.22:44
