[00:43] <satellit_> dfarning: is there a command to start the install to hard disk utility when booted from a live CD of Ubuntu 10.04?
[01:38] <dfarning> satellit_, I must confess I know almost nothing about installing ubuntu.  i have been trying to touch as little as possible below the sugar level.   With the exception of (sugar) the top 2% of the stack USR _is_ is exactly the same as ubuntu-netbook.  anything that applies to ubuntu netbook should apply to USR
[03:24] <satellit_> defarning : Thanks.... any idea when you will update USR again?
[03:24] <satellit_> dfarning: sorry  sp
[03:55] <dfarning> satellit_, I am hoping that thangam takes over as build master tomorrow. he seems very sharrp.
[03:56] <satellit_> yes  I noticed him today on IRC....
[03:56] <dfarning> satellit_, if not, i'll do a build as soon as the new usr-meta hits the repos. it includes sugar-firefox-activity
[03:57] <satellit_> that would be great.....thanks for all of your work.....
[03:59]  * satellit_ get a chance to try the Virtual box VM of USR?  http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Emulator_image_files#VirtualBox  I saw that one of Tabs PC wizards looke at it...

[04:07] <dfarning> satellit_, you are welcome.  It is inspiring to see what people are doing with it.  I haven't don any work with virtual box lately.... most of my time is spent doing administrative stuff necessary to start a business.
[09:41] <anubhav> alsroot: hi
[09:41] <alsroot> anubhav: hi
[09:42] <anubhav> alsroot: working on the bug #2164
[09:42] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 2164 in launchpad-foundations "Login form should ask for e-mail address only once" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2164
[09:43] <alsroot> anubhav: btw shan is also working on it
[09:44] <alsroot> anubhav: afaik he has some progress
[09:45] <anubhav> alsroot: actually can you tell me the function of the function _check_for_bundles()  in journalactivity file
[09:45] <anubhav> alsroot: b/w shan is also here he is asking the same problem he has some problem with is irc client
[09:47] <alsroot> anubhav: you don't need _check_for_bundles from journalactivity, if I got the problem right, it is about downgrading from journal, having it in common would be problematic (we don't have a window to dispaly an alert in all cases)
[09:47] <alsroot> anubhav: look into misc.resume()
[09:49] <anubhav> alsroot: hi shan here, :) . yes i had a look at misc.resume. i am able to introcude an alert popup for the user at the journal activity when a previous version of the .xo is clicked for installing
[09:49] <anubhav> introduce*
[09:50] <anubhav> i am able to stop installation of any previous activity.
[09:51] <alsroot> anubhav: you have a method (misc.resume) that raises an exception (AlreadyInstalledException), so you can wrap it to try block in journal to popup an alert
[09:51] <anubhav> yes, we did that.
[09:52] <alsroot> anubhav: whats the issue then?
[09:52] <anubhav> alsroot: now in the alert, we have two option 1. ' ok ' ( for installing previous version ) 2. ' cancel '
[09:53] <alsroot> anubhav: sound good
[09:53] <anubhav> alsroot: now resonse should come on clicking ok what should be done
[09:55] <anubhav> alsroot: on clicking ok previous .xo should get installed and the newer version ( which is already installed ) should be uninstalled. How should this be achieved?
[09:56] <alsroot> anubhav: you can pass a flag to BundleRegistry.install to force it to not raise AlreadyInstalledException
[09:57] <alsroot> anubhav: see install's sources, it also uninstalls bundles
[09:58] <anubhav> alsroot: no thats fine the problem is how to pass a flag as bundle registry can not import journalactivity
[09:59] <alsroot> anubhav: but for what reason you need journalactivity in registry? just add eg "force" argument to install()
[10:01] <anubhav> alsroot: if we give an argument inn install where from it is called!. it is called from misc and not from journlaactivity
[10:02] <anubhav> alsroot: there fore taking a hint from check for bundles function hfow to call it from journalactivity
[10:04] <anubhav> alsroot: *how
[10:04] <alsroot> anubhav: install<->resume<->journal, the first call will not pass force (raise an exception), the second call (from alert) will pass Treu for flag
[10:06] <alsroot> anubhav: even shorter, install<->resume, resume is a part of journal, so popiping up an alert from it is fine
[10:09] <anubhav> alsroot: ok trying..
[19:01] <mukul> alsroot: hi
[19:02] <alsroot> mukul: hi
[19:04] <mukul> alsroot: Can you give me some idea about what is the role of logging.py located at pylint/checkers?
[19:05] <alsroot> mukul: pylint/checkers? whats the project you mean?
[19:06] <mukul> alsroot: I am talking about sugar only.
[19:07] <alsroot> mukul: but I can't find "pylint" in sugar project sources
[19:08] <alsroot> .."pylint" directory
[19:08] <alsroot> and logging.py as well
[19:09] <mukul> ~/sugar-jhbuild/install/lib/python2.6/site-packages/pylint/checkers
[19:10] <alsroot> mukul: no ideas, it is not sugar sources, looke like files generated by jhbuild/something-else
[19:10] <alsroot> mukul: hmm, it is pylint sources not sugar
[19:12] <mukul> alsroot: The approach that I had suggested yesterday to bug: 2063 doesn't seem to work well as it was based on making changes in the logging file itself. Could you suggest any of the less uglier methods :P ?
[19:18] <alsroot> mukul: I'm afraid any proper fix would be too invasive...
[19:18] <alsroot> mukul: what about raising this issue on sugar-devel@?
