| G__81 | hi everybody i am interested in contributing to Ubuntu. I am interested in fixing bugs and adding features, though adding features is a futuristic goal at the moment but bug fixing is something that i want to start off with | 16:16 |
|---|---|---|
| G__81 | Can someone help me on this ? | 16:16 |
| nisshh | G__81, if you want to fix bugs in ubuntu, head over to #ubuntu-bugs | 16:24 |
| devildante | !contribute | 16:25 |
| ubot2 | To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 16:25 |
| devildante | nisshh: ubuntu-bugs is only for bug triaging, not bug fixing | 16:25 |
| nisshh | devildante, still be better than this channel though wouldnt it? | 16:25 |
| G__81 | so which is the channel for bug fixing as such ? | 16:26 |
| devildante | nisshh: yeah, but that's no reason to give incorrect statements | 16:26 |
| devildante | G__81: I don't think there is | 16:26 |
| nisshh | devildante, sorry, i forgot, what would you suggest? | 16:26 |
| devildante | G__81: but check the link I just gave | 16:26 |
| devildante | !contribute | G__81 | 16:27 |
| ubot2 | G__81: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 16:27 |
| G__81 | devildante, have gone over the link as such | 16:27 |
| devildante | ah | 16:27 |
| nisshh | devildante, i have seen people in #ubuntu-bugs who are fixing bugs though :| | 16:27 |
| G__81 | or is it like i go to gnome channels and start it there and it gets merged here ? is that the process | 16:28 |
| devildante | nisshh: maybe off-topic, idk, but ubuntu-bugs is for bug triaging | 16:28 |
| nisshh | devildante, yeah, i guess, ill remember that in the future | 16:28 |
| devildante | G__81: if you go to gnome channels, it's no longer a direct contribution to Ubuntu ;) | 16:29 |
| devildante | G__81: if you want to go that way: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeLove | 16:29 |
| G__81 | devildante, yeah i understand that so if thats not then whats the direct way to do it in ubuntu | 16:30 |
| devildante | G__81: you might want to check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | 16:31 |
| G__81 | yes but its got a section called BugSquad but that deals only with Bug triaging | 16:32 |
| G__81 | and of course talks a lot about packaging stuff but dont think it talks specifically about bugs in apps and the contact points for those | 16:33 |
| devildante | G__81: you could fix papercut bugs, they are easy to fix: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bugs?field.status:list=TRIAGED | 16:35 |
| G__81 | oh ok does it involve code changes ? | 16:47 |
| devildante | G__81: of course :) | 16:47 |
| G__81 | oh great thanks devildante so generally whats the process to fix as such, I just have one laptop where i have installed 10.10 today was earlier running f13 . Now is it wise enough to install a VM and install 10.10 in that too and fix stuff ? | 16:58 |
| devildante | G__81: why wouldn't you fix bugs in your native installation? | 16:59 |
| G__81 | no if its like i have to install lot of other libraries which might break my laptop. is there a chance for that ? | 17:00 |
| devildante | no, it won't break it | 17:02 |
| devildante | they are just libraries ;) | 17:02 |
| nisshh | G__81, all they will do is take up a small amount of hard drive space | 17:02 |
| G__81 | yeah space shouldnt be an issue at all | 17:03 |
| G__81 | oh ok if thats the case then i ll look into the bugs and is there a list or channel for those papercuts ? | 17:03 |
| devildante | I don't think so | 17:04 |
| nisshh | no, there isnt im pretty sure | 17:04 |
| G__81 | oh ok thanks | 17:04 |
| devildante | np ): | 17:05 |
| devildante | ;) | 17:05 |
| G__81 | how do i edit the Grub menu there is a GUI tool right can someone let me know that ? | 17:08 |
| G__81 | devildante, any idea on the name of the tool, | 17:09 |
| devildante | !support | G__81 | 17:09 |
| ubot2 | G__81: The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org | 17:09 |
| devildante | sorry for asking, but is there a way to integrate glade into an application? | 21:57 |
