bratsche:)07:58
bratschedbarth: hey, how's it going?07:58
dbarthpretty good07:58
dbarthcold and rainy here though07:58
bratscheI'm getting a new bike tomorrow!07:58
bratschePretty excited about that. :)07:59
kamstrupkvalo: yeah, as a singleton, that makes sense07:59
dbarthyeah, i see that07:59
dbarthsport version or more for trekking?07:59
bratscheIt's for roads07:59
bratscheThere's a nice lake here with a paved lane all the way around it, and it's an awesome place to go biking.08:00
bratscheI think it's about 12 miles around.08:00
dbarthbratsche: a bike and good lenses: can't wait to see the results ;) good night dude, you should go dream about the bike now ;)08:05
didrocksgood night bratsche!08:08
dbarthdidrocks: salut, how is it going this morning?08:09
didrocksdbarth: well, some nux and symbols file (C++ is hell :)). I'll finish triaging emails and then, get back to that08:09
didrocksdbarth: apparently, the symbols exported in the buildd aren't the same than locally, so when I ask to compare symbols at the end, it's not happy…08:10
didrocksI think that qt and libs have some work for that, will have a look08:10
MacSlowgreetings all the internetz :)08:11
didrockshey MacSlow!08:11
didrocksMacSlow: our bug about "tooltip not showing" was marked as fixed with latest release, I had to revert the status08:12
MacSlowdidrocks, yeah it was fixed as it was broken before :)08:13
didrocksMacSlow: hum? not sure to understand :) it's still broken there!08:13
MacSlowdidrocks, it is? Oh.08:14
MacSlowdidrocks, I'll look into it again today08:14
didrocksMacSlow: yeah, I've gladly no tooltip (nor quicklist then) yet08:14
didrocksMacSlow: thanks :)08:14
didrocksMacSlow: just the arrow, no content08:15
MacSlowdidrocks, pulled trunk of nux and unity yesterday and had no issues with the tooltips... that's why I'm suprised08:16
MacSlowdidrocks, you're talking about the released version or trunk?08:16
didrocksMacSlow: released version08:16
MacSlowah ok08:16
didrocksdbarth: btw, not sure if you read OMGUbuntu comments, but almost everyone is positive about the decision of no backport on maverick08:26
MacSlowhey murrayc !08:43
didrocksmorning gord :)08:51
didrocksgord: MacSlow: I'm sure you are experts at C++ vs exported symbols, aren't you? :)08:52
MacSlowdidrocks, "C++ vs. exported symbols" ? :)08:53
MacSlowdidrocks,  what do you mean by that?08:53
didrocksMacSlow: well, building nux locally, I get a exported symbol list from the libs (stored in the .symbols file)08:54
didrocksMacSlow: when building in buildd, the list is different!08:54
didrockshttp://launchpadlibrarian.net/59289250/buildlog_ubuntu-natty-amd64.nux_0.9.4-0ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz08:54
didrocksfor instance08:54
MacSlowdidrocks, no clue why that happens08:55
gordnux has crazy symbols problems, its insane08:55
didrocksseems to be different from arch to arch08:55
gordyeah i have no idea how to fix that, maybe wait for ted? something tells me he might of come across this before in inkscape08:57
didrocksgord: yeah, shipping a shlib meanwhile08:58
murraycMacSlow: hi08:59
njpateldbarth, so I think we can make the dailies work with what we have09:43
njpatelwill ping you in a bit after i've played with hudson a little09:43
dbarthok09:43
njpateldidrocks, is nux failing in ppas too, or just in archive?09:44
dbarthnjpatel: the nux dailies should be ok already09:44
dbarthit's only unity that fails atm09:44
didrocksnjpatel: if you took the latest packaging, it should fail09:44
njpatelthanks09:44
didrockshum?09:44
dbarthdidrocks: do you think it's your symbol files that breaks things?09:44
didrocksdbarth: you launched maybe before the latest package09:44
didrocksdbarth: right09:45
dbarthi tried a couple of times yesterday, after the release was sealed09:45
didrocksbecause you export different symbols on different archs09:45
didrocksso, only i386, my arch, should work in the ppa09:45
dbarthdidrocks: can't that be automated?09:45
dbarthdidrocks: or the whole daily concept won't fly really high09:45
didrocksdbarth: absolutely not, I don't have amd64 and others… and the goal of symbol file is to ensure stability09:45
didrocksdbarth: I use now a shlibs file09:46
didrocksdbarth: restricting the version to the particular current release09:46
dbarthso in this case the breakage is on purpose, because there was a symbol change, right?09:46
didrocksso you can break API/ABI :)09:46
njpateldidrocks, if you can let me know what symbols are different on amd64, I'll make sure to fix that with jay before next week09:46
didrocksyeah, for the buildd: as the i386 vs amd64 symbols aren't the same09:46
njpatelit's not right that the lib is exported different symbols09:47

dbarthdidrocks: the diff is huge!09:53
kamstrupnjpatel: go to your room!09:54
didrocksdbarth: yeah, and C++ symbols aren't the best to read :/09:54
dbarthis that because of a difference in symbol mangling? how can we avoid that?09:54
* njpatel retreats to his room09:54
didrocksI don't know enough of C++ symbols handling for it09:54
dbarthare there techniques used by compiz or kde apps that we should adopt?09:54
didrocksdbarth: kde apps have stable symbols, so there is a symbol file by arch09:54
didrocksyou don't, so I won't upload/fail/update for every arch every week :)09:55
dbarthagateau: ping? c++ expert called on level 1 please09:55
njpateldbarth, we just need to not export different symbols on different archs09:55

didrocksbtw, nux is a total fail on armel09:58
didrocksalignement issue, that should be fixable09:58
njpatelyeah, we need to get the arm builders for daily builds so we can see all that stuff09:59
didrocksbut at least, with the shlibs, we won an amd64 nux \o/09:59
didrocksnjpatel: do you think that's possible?09:59
didrocksthat can be a great help09:59
njpateldidrocks, private ppas have arm builds09:59
njpatelso we just need to push there09:59
didrocksnjpatel: oh right, it's because it's not virtualized that it's not by default09:59
njpatelthen at least we know if it breaks10:00
didrocksyeah10:00
didrocksthere was the same discussion for extra.ubuntu.com ppa10:00

smspillazdbarth: sure, hit me10:03
smspillaz:)10:03
MacSlowgord, wow... something removed doxygen from my system ?!10:03
gordMacSlow, i think you have gremlins in your system :)10:03
dbarthc++ is making things more difficult of course, but are there things that should be done at either nux or unity's level to avoid that10:03
dbarthsmspillaz: see http://launchpadlibrarian.net/59294490/buildlog_ubuntu-natty-amd64.nux_0.9.4-0ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz for example10:04
dbarthand grep for binary-arch i think10:04
kvalokamstrup: a rather long one again, but half of it is code removal: https://code.launchpad.net/~kvalo/indicator-network/libconnman-connect-dialog/+merge/4127510:06
njpatelMacSlow, what are you looking for in Nux?10:15
MacSlownjpatel, nux::Color10:15
MacSlowbut I've everything built again here10:15
njpatelMacSlow, header isn't useful?10:15
MacSlownjpatel, the hyper-linked doc is more handy to jump around10:16
njpatelnot in vim! ;)10:16
MacSlownjpatel, I don't use vim like that (don't even know how)10:16
didrocksnux says "hello" to main10:17
gordyou guys look things up yourself? just poke jay all day!10:17
njpateldidrocks, WOOHOO!10:17
didrockswill retry unity build (on i386 and amd64) is half an hour, time for publishing10:17
njpatelMacSlow, no, I mean I just load up headers because I'm in vim all day and it can't do anything more fancy than that10:17
njpatelactually, I take that back, it probably can do something more fancy, it's just I don't have that plugin10:18
MacSlownjpatel, I've chromium open with the nux-documeation that'll do10:18
smspillazdbarth: waitaminute, so what exactly is your problem with symbols? is it aborting with undefined symbols at runtime?10:19
njpatelsmspillaz, all it is is that on certain archs, we're exporting extra/less symbols. We just need to stabilise nux so it doesn't do that10:21
smspillaznjpatel: thats ... odd. have you got arch specific #ifdefs ?10:22
njpateljay probably has, or hasn't noticed he has, yes10:23
njpatelnux does a lot of things it shouldn't, we need to trim it down somewhat10:23
dbarthnjpatel: so this idea of limiting nux to just what we use for the moment, and making the rest a compile time option?10:38
dbarthnjpatel: for tools, we can build the full version for example10:38
dbarthnjpatel: i had run the idea by jay already, so if you think that can help speed things up, go for it10:39
kamstrupkvalo:  on it10:43
njpateldbarth, yep, that's what I've been wanting to do. maybe after A1 jay and I can spend a day "sprinting" and cut away all the things we don't need10:47
njpateldbarth, I think it'll help with the CD too10:47
kvalokamstrup: thanks10:47
dbarthnjpatel: and compile time as well ;)10:51
njpatelheh, yea10:52
njpateldbarth, do we need ppa:unity and ppa:unity/daily?10:52
njpateldbarth, with unity in natty, ppa:unity won't be used at all10:52
njpatelso why don't we push dailies to it?10:53
didrocksMacSlow: have you reproduced the tooltip issue?10:54
njpateldidrocks, does it still happen?10:54
MacSlowdidrocks, not happening in trunk10:54
didrocksnjpatel: yeah, I reopened the bug, you didn't notice?10:54
MacSlowdidrocks, have not checked the release10:54
MacSlowdidrocks, still have other things on my plate today10:55
didrockshum… I clearly have the new version there10:55
njpateldidrocks, I haven't seen bug mail yet today10:55
MacSlowdidrocks, you have it with trunk?10:55
njpateldidrocks, your on natty right?10:55
didrocksMacSlow: I try to keep what the release offers :)10:55
didrocksnjpatel: yeah10:55
kamstrupkvalo: needs fixing10:56
MacSlowdidrocks, I'm on maverick here on my desktop10:56
didrockshum, maybe that's related10:56
njpatelyeah10:56
MacSlowdidrocks, moving to natty just for testing will burn a bit too much time today10:56
didrocksMacSlow: trunk is the release10:56
njpateldidrocks, I think bamf on the whole is having trouble on natty10:56
njpateldidrocks, have the crashes stopped?10:56
didrocksMacSlow: no hurry for today, but for next release, it will be great10:57
MacSlowdidrocks, ok10:57
didrocksnjpatel: I didn't get one yet, but I'm restarting compiz a lot for the detection module…10:57
MacSlownjpatel, I'll stick to the ql10:57
njpateldidrocks, okay10:57
njpatelMacSlow, yes10:57
didrocksjust to notice: it affects ql as well, of course10:57

kamstrupdidrocks, njpatel, MacSlow: i also still have the tooltips/ql bug with jhbuild as of 1 hour ago11:04
MacSlowkamstrup, tooltips being empty?11:05
MacSlowkamstrup, are you on natty there?11:05
kamstrupMacSlow: yep11:05
kamstrupMacSlow: nope11:05
MacSlowkamstrup, oh hm..11:05
kamstrupMacSlow: but unless it's a mesa, X, or gtk3 issue that should not be the problem since the jhbuild build stack is pretty complete11:06
MacSlowkamstrup, I would not know how the launcher tooltips could be a gtk3-related problem by any means :)11:07
MacSlowkamstrup, I've some segfaults to fight here right now... may have some more time later this afternoon, if it still prevails11:08
didrocksMWAHAHAHAHAH, works!11:08
kamstrupdidrocks: ?11:09
didrockskamstrup: the fallback mode, if unity can't load, it can ask compiz "please, can I get a shell?" like launching gnome-panel :)11:10
gord\o/11:10
kamstrupdidrocks: wicked11:10
didrocksnow env variable to play with it and will create the gnome classic session next week, in time for A1 :)11:11
dbarthdidrocks: but can you also get a dialog box at the same time?11:11
dbarthie, create a gtk dialog, and spawn a shell at the same time?11:11
didrocksdbarth: not yet, that's will be an external soft to launch11:11
kvalokamstrup: thanks! I'll take a look after lunch11:11
didrocksdbarth: like a small python program11:11
didrocksdbarth: just need to do that in a generic way so that it will be upstreamed as well :)11:12
didrockswe have a nice architecture now with sam for that!11:12
kamstrupdidrocks: yeah, and then slowly from there rewrite compiz in python.... bwahahahaw! ;-)11:13

didrocksthe machiavelic plan will be announced later ;) all in python!11:14
MacSlowyay... no more segfaulting11:14
MacSlowphew11:14
didrocksMacSlow: because of a fix or because of a python exception? ;)11:14
MacSlowdidrocks, I don't do Python... only when forced to by a meat-grinding pain-amplifier :)11:14
MacSlowdidrocks, simple fix11:15
gordcan we expense a meat grinding pain amplifier?11:15

kklimondanjpatel: what is Nux?11:28
kklimondaan OpenGL toolkit - is it an alternative to Mx toolkit?11:28
kklimondadidrocks: ^ :)11:29
didrockskklimonda: Mx is using clutter, or I remember wrong?11:29
kklimondayes11:30
didrockskklimonda: so yeah, an alternative which doesn't use clutter :)11:30
kklimondadidrocks: am I allowed to say that it's getting ridiculous? :/11:30
kklimondaclutter, mx, gtk, nux, qt, cairo and who knows what else..11:30
didrockswell, clutter isn't a toolkit11:31
kklimondano way people are going to learn all that or even that they are going to know what is the right library to use :/11:31
didrocksand I don't have the time to argue with that11:31
kklimondadidrocks: my point is that we are getting a lot of libraries :)11:31
didrockskklimonda: same for applications and alternatives…11:31
kklimondadidrocks: yes - but more applications is more choice to end users and more libraries mean a headache to developers. :)11:32
didrockskklimonda: or more choice to developers, depends on how you stand it for11:33
didrocksbut anyway, I don't have the time to discuss that, I prefer acting :)11:33
kvalokamstrup: about cancellable in connect_service(). I didn't add it because I don't see any use for that right now. I was planning to cancel the calls only when the object is destroyed.11:39
njpatelkklimonda, nux is a opengl layout engine for unity, it's not really api/abi stable11:40
kamstrupkvalo: it's in order to follow the conventions11:40
njpatelit has some widgets too, but we don't really use them11:41
kamstrupkvalo: fx. if you wanna play well with vala11:41

lamalexdbarth, so I'm a little unclear what the line is between what I should be doing and that TheMuso should be doing14:34
dbarthlamalex: the atk bridge14:35
lamalexdbarth, we should just use the gtk bridge and load that, is there any reason otherwise?14:35
dbarthlamalex: is what you should concentrate on next14:35
lamalexit seems silly to reimplement something..14:35
dbarthlamalex: yeah, if that works, then it's the way to go14:35
dbarthwell, there is something similar for im-context that klattimer will switch to next week14:36
dbarthie, reloading the gtk module for reusing the code14:36
lamalexdbarth, I think it is. After talking to API (who did Cally) and some other a11y folks- just loading the gtk module is the best approach- there's no reason for us to implement our own- it will basically be the same thing14:36
dbarthnow, it remains to be seen how much technical dependencies that bring to the unity code base14:36
dbarthright14:37
dbarththe only reason to reimplement might be gtk graphical context dependencies or glib/dbus/at-spi integration issues14:37
dbarthbut if that's the experts consensus, this is what you should try first14:37
dbarthlamalex: did you manage to finalize the dbus bridge yesterday btw?14:40
dbarthlamalex: i saw there were some weird issues with static definitions14:40
lamalexdbarth, I got it all figured out14:40
dbarthlamalex: cool ;)14:40
dbarthso jibel is unblocked i guess now14:41
lamalexdbarth, all of the infrstructure is there. I just need to sync up with njpatel about actually exporting everything14:41
dbarthah14:41
lamalexdbarth, I'm unsure of /what/ to export14:41
dbarthwhat is exported at the moment? ie what goes into the registry?14:41
lamalexnothing right now, but it's as simple as implementing a single method on the classes that need introspected14:42
dbarthok14:42
dbarththe list of indicators on the panel would be a good start14:42
dbarthand the list of launchers as well14:42
dbarththe other thing that may be needed for them is some sample code to do the "button presses" with the xtest extension14:42
njpatellamalex, I saw your email14:43
njpatellamalex, Right now, if you could hook up into LauncherView and PanelView method stubs that get called when the information needs to be dumped (with the GVariant bits), I think we can make it part of QA wednesday a for the devels of those pieces to add the information in14:44
lamalexnjpatel, ok sounds good14:45
njpatellamalex, because there are still things that might change so I don't want you to spend time adding support for the way panel works to see it broken in a bit, and also I want the maintainers of those parts of the code to be responsible for making sure that the info is alwasy accurate14:45
njpateldbarth, lamalex, after that, switching to ATK would be best14:46
lamalexnjpatel, yeah, i think it makes more sense for me to provide the infrastructure14:46
njpatelright14:46
njpatellamalex, and I had a look, seems exactly how i imagined, nice work :)14:46
lamalexnjpatel, thanks- there are one or two things that I'm not excactly thrilled about about, but they're artifacts from C/C++ mixing14:48
njpatelright, that's fine, it's part of the "fun" ;)14:50
lamalex:)14:55
dbarthnjpatel: can you join us real quick on mumble14:55
njpatelyep15:00
jcastronjpatel: did I tell you my apport/places idea?15:02
njpateli think so dude, a week or so ago?15:02
jcastrook, just making sure it wasn't lost in my brain15:02
njpatelit collects your apport messages?15:02
njpatel:)15:02
njpatelno, now it's lost in mine ;)15:02
jcastroyeah new/submitted/broken, etc. or whatever15:03
jcastroas sections in the pane15:03
sensePlaces can only give results of a table of data right? No support for graphs and such is planned?15:04
jcastrosense: well personally I want all the bling15:04
senseIt could help to have more visual elements available to developers in the future.15:05
lamalexwhat would the story be for a graph in places?15:10
lamalexsounds shiny, but does it match wht places is meant for? (I'm asking, I honestly don't know)15:10
=== smorar_ is now known as smorar
senseA QA Place!15:11
sensewith graphs of the progress of an application15:11
sensestatus*15:11
senseOr maybe it would be something Zeitgeist can use to visualise some things.15:12
* lamalex searches for the places spec15:12
lamalexmy understanding that places are basically data stores you search on to get to data quickly15:12
lamalexnot applications unto themselves15:12
lamalexmeans rather than ends15:12
lamalexnjpatel, my launcher and panel are both empty/invisible.. any idea?15:13
lamalexnjpatel, their struts are set, but that's it15:14
senseAh, then it probably makes not much sense to use add a lot of bling indeed. But something like Gloobus could be a nice addition to make it easier to browse your data easily.15:15
lamalexsense, previews?15:16
njpatellamalex, hmm, weird. what graphics chipset?15:17
lamalexnjpatel, intel15:17
lamalexnjpatel, http://imagebin.org/12396215:17
senselamalex: So you don't have to leave the place for every data object (file, video, etc) you want to check.15:17
njpatellamalex, hah, awesome15:17
lamalexsense, yeah, I think that previews are valuable15:18
njpatellamalex, is this maverick or natty15:18
lamalexnjpatel, maverick15:18
njpatellamalex, restarting compiz?15:18
lamalexfrom source- not packages15:18
lamalexnjpatel, yah15:18
lamalexnjpatel, ive been meaning to bzr bisect it15:18
lamalexbut wanted to ask you/jason first15:18
njpatelno, sorry, i havent' seen this before :/15:19
lamalexi think 610 was the commit that broke it15:19
njpatellamalex, jay would be the person to ask15:19
lamalex610 or 61115:20
lamalexeither your panel work or jay's quicklists15:20
njpatelinteresting15:20
njpateli'd obviously blame jay15:20
njpatelnot without reason, either, he touched the BaseWindow stuff in nux15:21
lamalexguess it's time to revert and see when it actually broke15:22
jay1lamalex: hello15:23
lamalexjay1, I think your quicklist branch broke shit15:23
lamalexjay1, , http://imagebin.org/12396215:23
njpateljay1, where "shit" refers to lamalex's computer ;)15:24
njpateljay1, MacSlow has rendering issues too. so it's either you or me that broke it :D15:24
MacSlowlamalex, that's with untiy trunk I assume?!15:24
jay1lamalex: what is happening when you run unity?15:25
* MacSlow drawing issues are related to the global-menu -> http://macslow.net/clips/global-menu-rendering-glitch.ogv15:25
lamalexMacSlow, yeah15:25
lamalexMacSlow, jay1, up to date nux and unity15:25
MacSlowlamalex, so you're missing the launcher and top panel (global-menu)?!15:26
njpatellamalex, in your build directory, do ./tests/test-panel, do you get a standalone panel window?15:26
jay1lamalex: is unity crashing when you open a quicklist (right click on a launcher icon)?15:26
MacSlowlamalex, jay1: while I've issues with the panel-rendering only... the launcher draws just fine15:27
lamalexjay1, no this is what I see when I launch compiz15:27
MacSlowlamalex, you do not have accidentally enabled "auto hide launer" in the unity-plugin settings in ccsm, or have you?15:27
lamalexnjpatel, I need to rebuild- ijust wiped build. I will let you know about the standalone panel in a minute15:28
lamalexMacSlow, no, not enabled in ccsm15:28
lamalexnjpatel, I get a test panel15:29
njpatelokay, so it's internal to unity plugin then15:30
james_whi hi fine people. I searched for a bug on mumble + (maverick) unity being a pain, and couldn't find one. Is it a known issue that you can't get the mumble UI up? Is there a workaround?15:30
njpatelMacSlow, can you also play with the test panel and see if you can open menus etc without rendering issues?15:30
lamalexdbarth, ?? are you still around15:30
lamalexsee pm15:30
MacSlownjpatel, one sec...15:30
njpateljames_w, hey, we know of the issue, no real workaround at the moment :/15:30
njpateljames_w, make sure that the option "minimise to tray" isn't checked15:31
MacSlownjpatel, test-panel itself runs and that render fine.15:31
njpatelokay, so something in unity plugin definitely15:32
MacSlownjpatel, only the position of menus opened is not right below the test-panel, but just below the screen top15:32
james_wnjpatel, if only I could get to the option now :-)15:32
MacSlowhey RAOF15:33
seiflotfynjpatel, or any115:35

lamalexthe telepathy avatar api is really weird15:37
seiflotfylamalex, yes15:37
seiflotfyi am not willing to work with telepathy API tbh15:37
seiflotfylibfolks should do15:38
seiflotfybut i need to get the docs complied15:38
seiflotfyand since i am am amateur i need some1 to help me15:38
seiflotfyi see in the configure.ac the15:38
seiflotfy--enable-docs thingie15:38
lamalexseiflotfy,  yeah, that should be it15:39
seiflotfywell not working15:39

lamalexno, it should figure that out15:41
seiflotfyits not15:41
seiflotfy-.-15:41
seiflotfyok this is sad15:46
seiflotfyi ask telepathy for doc for folks15:46
seiflotfyand they tell me look at the code15:46
seiflotfy:(15:46
lamalexjay1, any idea about my missing unity?15:51
jay1lamalex: do you have nux compiled with --enable-debug15:51
lamalexjay1, always15:52
jay1lamalex: to you get some log message from Nux: they look like "Log: ...15:52
jay1lamalex: I am trying to reproduce here...15:53
mptoubiwann, hi, <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-dx-n-resizing-windows> is not yet accepted for Natty15:53
lamalexjay1, the only Log: messages I get are about my graphics stack15:53
lamalexwant to see them?15:53
oubiwannmpt: hrm, I thought I approved it the other day15:54
* oubiwann looks again15:54
mptoubiwann, you did, but approving it and accepting it are not the same thing.15:54
mptIt needs to be accepted to show up in the burndown charts.15:54
jay1lamalex: no I guess it is the standard message about your gpu type15:54
lamalexyah15:54
lamalexi dont see anything really 'debuging' related15:55
jay1lamalex: you have an NVidia gpu?15:55
jay1lamalex: or something else15:55
lamalexjay1, intel15:56
oubiwannmpt: how do I accept it?15:56
lamalexjay1,15:56
lamalexjay1, https://pastebin.canonical.com/39974/15:56
mptoubiwann, I don't know, I don't think I've ever been in a team that can accept blueprints.15:57
oubiwannmpt: no worries, I'll ask robbiew15:57
mptthanks15:57
jay1lamalex: what if you revert unity to a previous version before my branch with the quicklist support?15:59
oubiwannmpt: okay, robbie hooked me up. "Proposed for natty" was the field that needed to be edited; by selecting "ubuntu natty" from the drop down on the next page (and saving) it got set as accepted16:02
lamalexjay1, still nothing, but I don't really trust bzr's revert. It weird me out that the actual revno doesn't go back16:02
lamalexjay1, maybe it's a nux breakage?16:02
mptthanks oubiwann16:03
jay1lamalex: I am not getting any issue on my dell mini 9. check that you have all the correct libraries...16:03
oubiwannmpt: sure thing16:03
lamalexhmm16:03
lamalexI will try blowing away everything and starting from scratch16:03
jay1lamalex: you have Unbuntu Unity Plugin selected in ccsm, right?16:05
mpttedg, friendly reminder, <https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-dx-n-indicator-messages> has no work items yet :-)16:06
mpttedg, or more precisely, it has linked bugs, but isn't approved/accepted16:06
lamalexjay1, yeh16:07
tedgmpt, Yeah, it just got put "at risk" for Natty.  Not sure if there's a status for that.  Should we approve it and just mark it low priority?16:15
mpttedg, that's probably the most accurate reflection of "at risk"16:15
