dylan-mHey… I have these two bug reports and I want to make them not be redundant and horrible. Wondering if anyone would mind if we marked the new one a duplicate of the other at this point :)00:15

ubot2Launchpad bug 629258 in upower (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 4 other projects) "Battery life estimation never comes around (affects: 116) (dups: 6) (heat: 518)" [Medium,Confirmed]00:15

ssj6akshathow do I fix bug #602462?04:32
ubot2Launchpad bug 602462 in grsync (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "Too geeky description of grsync in software center (affects: 1) (heat: 30)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/60246204:32
paultaghehehe04:34
persiassj6akshat, Best option is probably to write up a new description and file a bug in the Debian bug tracker asking for an update (won't happen before squeeze release)04:34
ssj6akshatpersia, in grsync?04:36
persiaAgainst grsync, yeah.  Software Center is only displaying the issue.04:37
paultagssj6akshat, I'd also remove the software center tag if it's still on there04:37
paultagI just glanced at it, don't know if it's still there04:37
ssj6akshatshould I file an Upstream bug and assign it to launchpad?04:38
paultagssj6akshat, No, forward the bug to the BTS and give the link on the LP bug04:39
ssj6akshatpaultag, how do I do it?04:39
paultagssj6akshat, Debian wrote that description, so the bug is with Debian ( not even grsync )04:39
persiaWell, start by writing up a new description.  That's the important bit: the rest is just procedural.04:39
paultagpersia, there is another one on the bug report, if I recall04:40
paultagssj6akshat, http://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control04:40
* persia didn't see it, and apologises if it's already there04:40
* paultag opens bug again04:40
paultagpersia, yeah, it's on the top bit -- grep for [Current short/long Description:]04:41
paultagOh shoot04:41
persiaAha!04:41
paultagI did not read that. You're right persia04:41
paultagHe gives an alt short description04:41
persiaHrm.  I'm not sure whether I get points for being right, or lose points for being confused.  In all, I think it's a wash.04:41
paultag:)04:41
paultagssj6akshat, I'll remove that tag for you04:41
ssj6akshatpaultag, that documentation is confusing04:43
paultagssj6akshat, I'll forward it for you, no big deal04:43
paultagssj6akshat, I'll CC you, what email should I use? ( It's a public system )04:43
ssj6akshatpaultag, how do i forward it myself?04:43
paultagssj6akshat, I'll send the email and you can see how it's structured :)04:43
paultagssj6akshat, it's all over email04:43
paultagIt's really not too bad :)04:44
ssj6akshatssj6akshat1234[wtfspamAT]gmail[dot]com04:44
paultagssj6akshat, this will be public and google-able04:45
paultagssj6akshat, do you want to add a tag to it to filter or something?04:45
ssj6akshatpaultag, no04:45
paultagOK04:45
ssj6akshatmost email I get is related to ubuntu04:45
paultagkk :)04:45
paultagssj6akshat, sent. Take a look on how that's formatted ( and how it displays ) :)04:49
paultagssj6akshat, the report will show up on http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=grsync after it's processed. Check out the link after it shows up and put that into the Launchpad bug report04:49
paultagssj6akshat, kosher?04:51
ssj6akshatthat was easy04:51
paultagssj6akshat, ( It's now showing up as debbug #602265 )04:51
paultagssj6akshat, heck yeah :)04:51
paultagssj6akshat, keep rocking!04:51
paultagssj6akshat, did you add the BTS ( debian bug tracking system ) link to the report?04:53
ssj6akshatpaultag, should it be in grsync(Ubuntu) ?04:53
paultagssj6akshat, that's OK. Just add the BTS link on LP04:54
ssj6akshatok04:54
paultagssj6akshat, LP ( and hopefully the maintainer ) will do the rest04:54
persiaDebian bug #60226504:54
ubot2Debian bug 602265 in grsync "Too geeky description of grsync in software center" [Wishlist,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/60226504:54
persiaWarning: some folk might complain that Software Center is an Ubuntu-only tool.  If so, point out that the same problem exists for arbitrary package managers.04:55
paultagpersia, +1, it's dpkg04:55
persiaAlso, it still needs a better description: I suspect that if the Debian Maintainer had one, they would have already changed it.04:55
paultaglooks good ssj6akshat, great work04:55

persiaNothing there looks too abnormal.21:13
persiaSo, would you like to learn the trick to be able to read screenshots in every language?21:13
charlie-tcaseems like we should check if the screensaver turns on while watching a video in english too21:13
njinpersia: of course21:14
persiaBased on the bug description, I think it's a regression in the kernel/graphics drivers and has nothing to do with the settings, but that needs confirmation.21:14
persianjin, OK.  You know you want to read the power-manager dialog.  Do you know which package contains it?21:14
njin_persia: sorry disconnect21:18
persianjin, OK.  You know you want to read the power-manager dialog.  Do you know which package contains it?21:19
njin_persia:no, i ask reporter to run apport-collect gpm21:19
persiaWait!21:20
persiaWe don't know it's a gpm bug.21:20
persiaPlus "gpm" is a mouse emulation program.21:20
njin_yes21:20
persiaSo, what package do you *think* it might be?21:20
njin_gnome-power-manager21:21
njin_persia:^^21:22
persiaOK, so go grab that source package.21:23
njin_persia:source_gnome-power-manager in /usr/share/apports/package-hooks ?21:27
persiaNo.  Create a new scratch directory, and run `apt-get source gnome-power-manager`21:28
persianjin_, How are you doing with the source download?21:49
njin_persia: I have the /var/lib/dpkg busy and net problem21:51
