| persia | https://help.launchpad.net/Bugs/EmailInterface has more detailed instructions if one wishes especially to use email | 09:12 |
| persia | I don't think multiple attachments work for the email interface either, although that bug may have been solved. Most folk create multiple comments to attach multiple files. | 09:13 |

| geekosopher | thekorn: thanks for taking this up! :) | 12:23 |
| geekosopher | thekorn: what I am trying to figure out is why the importance is set to low, iirc, it falls in the category 'Has a moderate impact on a large portion of Ubuntu users (estimated)' | 12:29 |
| geekosopher | i am asking just for my understanding... I personally don't use rhytmbox | 12:30 |
| thekorn | geekosopher: well, you might be right. but I personally don't care much about the value choosen for importance, | 12:36 |
| thekorn | esp. when the bug is already assigned to someone | 12:36 |
| thekorn | which means: it's on someones agenda | 12:36 |
| geekosopher | thekorn: absolutely, as I said, just for my understanding | 12:36 |
| thekorn | ..and I think, in this case the assingee should choose whatever he/she things fits best | 12:37 |
| geekosopher | hmm... ya | 12:37 |
| geekosopher | :) | 12:37 |
| thekorn | also, I think the value is not really important in the early stage of a release cycle | 12:37 |
| thekorn | at the end there might be some proirities set based on importance, | 12:38 |

| * persia looks | 22:08 | |
| persia | 668800 looks valid to me: needs someone to dig at it a bit more to confirm it's complete (and then leave a comment so it's "triaged") | 22:10 |
| persia | 570437 looks like another case of the assumption of CP437 encoding causing issues, which is related to an unfixable underlying design issue in FAT. | 22:11 |
| persia | (unfixable because of the sheer number of FAT implementations: more than we can count, let alone patch) | 22:11 |
| palhmbs | njin, I have a HP JetDirect connected to a LaserJet 1200 -- and printing is slow for me too... multiple copes seem to take forever, because it processes (sends) the page for that number of copies. | 22:11 |
| persia | palhmbs, Would you be able to dig into why, and whether there's enough data added to the bug? | 22:12 |
| palhmbs | instead of just telling the printer to print x number | 22:12 |
| persia | Maybe we can identify a smaller test-case, or get some (limited) strace output where gs is doing the wrong thing? | 22:12 |
| palhmbs | I can, I'm fairly new to the bug triaging | 22:13 |
| palhmbs | tho | 22:13 |
| persia | Main thing is to just focus on why, and dig until you find it. Lots of folk here willing to give a hand with techniques if you ask. | 22:13 |
| palhmbs | right - ok, I'll look into it | 22:13 |
| njin | persia:hello , happy to see you again | 22:14 |
| persia | njin, For 570437, I'd recommend searching for bugs related to FAT, and try to find the master encoding one (I can't find it quickly). For 668800, best to help palhmbs dig into it. | 22:14 |
| njin | persia: done bug 486370 | 22:18 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 486370 in windows-el (Ubuntu) "Cannot rename folder from FOO to foo on vfat disk (affects: 2) (heat: 19)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/486370 | 22:18 |
| njin | ;-) | 22:19 |
| persia | That's a slightly different bug. The one you want will probably have tens of duplicates and I think it talks about problems using USB sticks with Chinese filenames in the first couple comments. | 22:20 |
| * persia wontfixes 486370 | 22:20 | |
| njin | persia:big | 22:21 |
| * hggdh sees persia attacking FAT | 22:29 | |
| persia | hggdh, Don't get me wrong. I like FAT. I use it daily. It's just exceedingly limited in several ways and doesn't bother to specify the encoding of it's strings either in the spec or the filesystem metadata (and doesn't work with unicode) | 22:31 |
| hggdh | persia: oh, I did not get you wrong. I have done the same on another FAT bug ;-) | 22:32 |
| persia | hggdh, Note that we don't want to wontfix the encoding bug: there's several folk working on some algorithms to make a (mostly) accurate guess about FAT encoding based on filesystem label and contents, and we've been shipping increasingly more recent versions of their detection code as we proceed. | 22:33 |
| hggdh | persia: noted | 22:33 |
| njin | persia, hggdh: bigger, see you tomorrow, here's too late | 22:34 |

| palhmbs | persia, should I try downgrading cups?? -- also I think this is related - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/419143 | 22:37 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 419143 in poppler (Ubuntu Karmic) (and 5 other projects) "Printing from evince (and perhaps other GTK apps) to PostScript printers is broken (affects: 74) (dups: 17) (heat: 414)" [Undecided,Invalid] | 22:37 |
| persia | palhmbs, You could. I'm very much not the right person to advise about printing bugs (I don't print), so I'm not comfortable saying "yes" or "no" | 22:37 |
| palhmbs | np - I'll continue digging | 22:38 |
| oliver602 | palhmbs: re 668800 , when i do "gs document.pdf" on the attached document, ghostscript dies with an error. same with a pdf i generate of the attached stars.svg | 22:46 |
| palhmbs | thanks oliver602 | 22:47 |
| palhmbs | so it's definitely gs - and we can add that to the bug | 22:47 |
| palhmbs | can we not also assign it to the gs team / desktop team? | 22:47 |
| persia | No. | 22:49 |
| persia | We don't assign bugs to other folk, because we can't know why they choose to do things. | 22:49 |
| oliver602 | do u want to me add a comment on the ghostscript error? | 22:49 |
| persia | Maybe they work on stuff because they care about some issue they are having. Maybe they work on stuff because their boss tells them to. Maybe they work on stuff because they want to close important bugs. | 22:49 |
| persia | So we just make sure there's enough information that folk (or their bosses) can pick good things to fix. | 22:50 |
| palhmbs | np - just wondered, I'm new :D | 22:50 |
| oliver602 | me too | 22:50 |
| persia | No worries. I just like to explain why we mostly self-assign, because it's not always obvious: there are many projects where folk are assigned to do stuff. | 22:51 |
| persia | But in Ubuntu, where we have lots of companies and lots of individuals all collaborating, it's far too confusing to even begin to try to understand who is "supposed" to do what. | 22:51 |
| oliver602 | when you 'print to file' ps or pdf, who generates the file? | 22:57 |
| oliver602 | palhmbs: do you know who generates the file when you do 'print to file' ? | 23:02 |
| palhmbs | actually no | 23:05 |
| palhmbs | I don't - I assume the ppd - I have had other issues with printing (from Abiword) and got around printing problems by printing to a pdf first | 23:06 |
| palhmbs | then printing it again to the Laserjet from Adobe Reader | 23:06 |
| palhmbs | I'm upgrading my system - there are updates for cups | 23:07 |
| palhmbs | so I'll try these files again - then if they still give errors, I'll downgrade until I find a something that works | 23:08 |
| oliver602 | hum, in my case, i find printing to postscript solves the printing problem. where as print to file as PDF, ghostscript doesnt like it | 23:08 |
| oliver602 | for 10.10? | 23:08 |
| palhmbs | yes - I'm using 10.10 | 23:09 |
