pittiOO.o helped to kill ~ 10 MB08:05
* pitti dances around happily08:05
micahgpitti: BTW, libreoffice is in experimental08:06
pittimicahg: right, but I won't touch it, I'm afraid08:06
pittimicahg: we'll get a proper OO.o maintainer soon08:07
pittiit already took me half a week to get the current version building on natty..08:07
micahgpitti: wow, yeah, I just read the changelog, I hope the libreoffice build system ends up a little cleaner08:07
pittimicahg: so am I; doing patches-for-patches hurts a lot08:08
pittimicahg: well, I hope/think that most of the go-oo patches can make it into upstream libreoffice08:08
pittiand for the remaining ones we can hopefully just have a single set of patches which are directly applied to the build tree08:09

didrockshey pitti!08:22
didrockspitti: excelent :)08:23
didrockspitti: oh really, we have an OO.o maintainer now? \o/08:23
pittididrocks: not yet08:24
pittididrocks: just a poor pitti who spend his nights sledgehammering on the current package :)08:24
didrockspitti: hehe, yeah, I can imagine. I played that game for a week in August08:24
didrockspitti: at least, I hope that me, documenting all changes in debian/changelog helped you08:25
didrocks(because most of the diff between debian and us wasn't documented…)08:25

pittiunfortunately http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20101213/ is still heavily oversized08:42
didrocks:/08:45
didrockspitti: how was your week-end, btw?08:45
* didrocks just finished a tedious 2 hours of week-end unity bug triaging :/08:46
pittididrocks: went to visit my parents and cousins yesterday, for the ceremonial red cabbage cooking :)08:46
pitti(my father has an awesome recipe)08:46
pittiotherwise it was fairly quiet; some OO.o hacking, and some idling, I caught a bit of a cold08:46
didrocksoh nice!08:46
didrocksurgh08:46
pittididrocks: last week I discovered http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/08:46
didrockstake care… not very surprising with this weather btw :)08:46
pittithat's a productivity killer :)08:47
pittiI loved Descent back in the DOS era08:47
didrocksoh, excellent! Yeah, you will kill my productivity as well :)08:47
pittiand now it runs amazingly well under Linux, and it looks 10 times better than back then due to full resolution08:47
didrocksI played that game too much :)08:47
pittididrocks: I'm in level 9 in Ace mode now -- gee, they really give you a good beating at that difficulty08:48
didrockspitti: they changed the difficulty level?08:48
pittididrocks: no, I just didn't play Ace back then08:48
pittididrocks: btw, if you want to build it, give me a ping; there's some tricks you have to do to get it to build08:48
didrockspitti: oh sure, I'll. Probably after the holidays I guess (so in January) as I think I'll have to focus on housework first :)08:49
didrocksthanks :)08:49
* pitti discovers 1.9 MB balooning of libgphoto2 and fixes08:50
didrocks1.9 MB? what was the cause?08:50
pittiit accidentally ships the API docs in both the lib and the -dev package08:52
didrocksoh ok08:53
pittiI'm analyzing the iso-deb-size-compare result between maverick and current daily08:53
pittiand this one stuck out08:54
didrocksoh there is such a tool or did you hack a shell-script ourself (I did that when I tracked the oversize in UNE). I've always wondered why the manifest doesn't report the size08:55
pittididrocks: I hacked it a few months ago09:00
pittididrocks: it's in lp:ubuntu-archive-tools09:00
didrockspitti: thanks I'm refreshing my branch then :)09:02
htorquedidrocks, bug 68880309:04
ubot2Launchpad bug 688803 in unity (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "SIGSEGV in g_atomic_int_get (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/68880309:04
htorquewhat's incomplete there (except the call in /usr/lib/libdbusmenu-glib.so.2)? i always thought if i get all function names i'm good to report?09:04
didrockshtorque: if you look, for some function, you ony have the prototype, not the values, not sure why, I was blaming missing dbgsym09:05
didrockshtorque: but in any case, it can be easily reproduced, hence the triaged :)09:05
htorquedidrocks, oh, i see. will try again. :)09:07
didrockshtorque: thanks :)09:07
didrockshtorque: you know about the dbgsym and such, I guess?09:07
didrockshtorque: oh you build from trunk most of the time, scratch it :)09:07
didrocks(but not for bamf and glib I guess)09:07
seb128hey09:17
pittihey seb12809:17
seb128hey pitti09:17
seb128how are you?09:17
seb128had a nice we?09:17
pittiseb128: have a bit of a sore throat, but weekend was nice, yes09:18
pittiseb128: I finally got OO.o to build \o/09:18
seb128oh, take care of you then09:18
seb128nice, so you are officially maintain it now? ;-)09:18
* seb128 runs away from pitti09:18
pittiseb128: sorry, I didn't understand your last sentence; must be a temporary transmision glitch09:18
didrockssalut seb128, ça va?09:19
seb128lut didrocks09:19
seb128ouais et toi ?09:20
didrocksça va bien :)09:20
seb128did the unity and indicators update land on friday?09:21
seb128did they work? ;-)09:21
pittiand we have current CD images again, finally09:21
didrocksseb128: unity landed and worked for me. Not sure about the indicators update09:22
didrocksseb128: seems that a lot of people got stuck in the dist-upgrade which removed the indicators09:23
didrocksso, I'm just apt-get upgrade now and then will try a dist-upgrade to see the current status09:23
seb128ok09:25
htorquedidrocks, yeah, when testing trunk i always remove the -dbgsym packages to avoid conflicts. looks like i didn't reinstall them when testing this with the natty packages. :)09:26
didrockshtorque: ok :)09:27

chrisccoulsongood morning everyone09:43
seb128hey chrisccoulson09:43
pittihey chrisccoulson, how are you?09:43
seb128how are you?09:43
chrisccoulsongood thanks, how are you?09:44
seb128I'm fine thanks09:44
chrisccoulsonhmmm, unity doesn't work well when i dock my laptop :/09:46
chrisccoulsoni have one black screen and one screen with half a shell on it ;)09:46
didrockshey chrisccoulson09:47
chrisccoulsonhi didrocks, how are you?09:47
didrockschrisccoulson: yeah, multi-monitor isn't good for now09:47
didrockschrisccoulson: I'm tired but fine, thanks :)09:47
chrisccoulsonah, restarting compiz fixes the issues :)09:48
chrisccoulsoni now have 2 monitors back09:48
didrockschrisccoulson: yeah, but the panel isn't at its best from the bug reports I see :)09:51
chrisccoulsondidrocks - yeah, it spans both monitors and the menubar on the opposite monitor is a bit weird ;)09:52
chrisccoulsonbut i need to run unity now to hack on the ffox menubar :)09:52
didrockschrisccoulson: there are already discussions on bugs about that :)09:52
didrockschrisccoulson: hehe :) (I think you can also use the gnome-panel appmenu applet, but I won't discourage you using unity of course :p)09:53
chrisccoulsonoh, i didn't realise that!09:54
seb128catching up on planet09:57
seb128chrisccoulson, nice appmenu firefox work ;-)09:57
chrisccoulsonthanks :)09:58
seb128pitti, I think one reason to not preselect the gdm user as well was that selecting it starts the pam dialog09:58
chrisccoulsonthere's still quite a lot for me to do, and i need to get some missing features in to libdbusmenu this week too09:58
chrisccoulsonbut it's getting there!09:58
seb128there was some issues, timeout bugs, etc in the past about those09:58
seb128chrisccoulson, ;-)09:58
pittiseb128: I see; right, it needs to check for the auth method09:59
seb128well I don't say it's not doable but it would not be as trivial as activating the widget10:00
pittididrocks: do you know what the real packaging bzr branch for unity-asset-pool is?10:08
pittididrocks: https://code.launchpad.net/unity-asset-pool is not entirely clear, and the package doesn't have a vcs-bzr10:08
didrockspitti: should be lp:~unity-team/unity-asset-pool/packaging10:08
pittimeh, -ECAN'TCOMMIT10:08
pittididrocks: if I throw you a branch, could you pull it into that one?10:09
didrocksyeah, that's something which should be fixed, not sure that subscribing all core-dev to unity-team and getting spammed but all unity bugs is nice though :/10:09
didrockspitti: sure, sorry for the extra work10:10
pittididrocks: no problem10:10
pittiI also need to fix notify-osd, doesn't build in natty10:10
pittibut I think I still have upstream commit powers there10:10
didrockshehe :)10:10
seb128didrocks, why do we need unity in the unity team vcs?10:10
seb128the packaging should use the standard lp:ubuntu10:10
seb128pitti, check with mirco, I think they fixed issues in trunk10:11
seb128pitti, would be nice to get a new tarball as well10:11
didrocksseb128: well, we set up like that at the beginning, but yeah, that should be pushed in lp:ubuntu. can do it10:11
pittididrocks: I can do that as well, while I'm at it10:11
pittididrocks: (u-a-p to lp:ubuntu/10:11
didrockspitti: sure, please do :)10:11
didrocksI'll do the others10:11
pittialrighty10:11
pittididrocks: perhaps you can delete the branch from LP then10:12
seb128brb session restart10:12
didrockspitti: seb128: the only thing is that for daily build, sometimes, I change the packaging in advance10:12
didrockstoo late :)10:12
mvochrisccoulson: hey, I got a mail from a guy with problems with the latest ff/tbird (from 2010-12-10) are you interessted in reports like tihs?10:15
mvochrisccoulson: very little details unfortuantely10:16
chrisccoulsonmvo - it depends on what the problem is ;)10:16
chrisccoulsonwe get quite a lot of different problems from single reporters which generally tend to either not be real bugs or problems with plugins or extensions, so i normally only look at problems that affect more than one person ;)10:17
mvochrisccoulson: yeah, I figured that. fair enough10:20
chrisccoulsonmvo - what details do you have though?10:20
mvovery little10:21
mvohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/542986/10:21
mvobut I wanted to raise it just in case it affects more people10:21
mvodon't worry if its a single report10:21
didrocksseb128: the only thing about packaging in lp:ubuntu, is that for daily build, sometimes, I change the packaging in advance. But it's rare enough to be a corner case10:22
seb128didrocks, well, you can have unreleased commits in lp:ubuntu10:23
didrocksseb128: yeah, but basically, some commits are in advanced like updating the symbol files for symbols in next release10:24
didrocksbut again, that's a corner case10:24
didrocksor maybe ~ubuntu-desktop will make more sense for that?10:24
didrockspitti: ^^10:24
pittididrocks: no, use lp:ubuntu/10:25
pittididrocks: since ~ubuntu-desktop has upload rights for these packages, they can also commit there10:25
pittiit's all integrated into per-package uploader etc.10:25
pittididrocks: and yes, it's totally fine (and encouraged) to commit stuff there without upload, same as with the old branches10:25
pittiit's still a bzr branch, after all10:26
didrocksok, and for compiz? it has been ~compiz for some time already10:26
pittimvo's and your call, I guess10:26
pittiI'm all for allowing people to commit when they can upload10:26
pittiotherwise it's quite a burden10:26
seb128well it's not an issue when you have a list set for the teams10:27
seb128like anybody with upload rights can commit to the ubuntudesktop vcs10:28
pittiseb128: I need to rebuild seahorse; want me to upgrade to 2.32 while I'm at it?10:28
seb128but the unity team has no mailing list so it would mail spam everybody10:28
pitti(we are at 2.91.2)10:28
pittierm, ignore me10:28
pittiI read it backwards10:29
seb128;-)10:29
pittiuscan FTL10:29
seb128we have 2.3210:29
seb128pitti, just curious why do you need to rebuild it? is there a list of "need rebuilds" we can help on?10:29
pittiseb128: optimize SVGs and PNGs10:29
pittiseb128: http://paste.ubuntu.com/542992/10:30
pittiseb128: I spent some time analyzing today's CDs10:30
pittiand this is my work list10:30
pittiI can finish SVGs/PNGs today, then this chapter is done :)10:30
seb128ok10:31
seb128those changes make me nervous btw10:31
pittiwhich?10:31
seb128having games excluded from the list seems a workaround10:31
seb128touching the images without knowing if the software rely on them being in a specific format10:32
seb128is that being done only on things on the CD? or anything using cdbs will get it?10:32
pittianything right now (except games)10:32
seb128didrocks, ubuntu-desktop is a subteam of compiz10:32
pittiI haven't heard about problems with that yet, aside from this game10:32
didrocksseb128: should we rather do the same with unity + add a ML?10:33
seb128pitti, ok, well let's see but it makes me nervous a bit10:33
didrocksseb128: I don't really care, just if we can be consistent :)10:33
seb128didrocks, being consistent would be to move to lp:ubuntu10:34
seb128imho10:34
seb128well do we need a special team for unity?10:34
seb128seems you abuse the unity upstream team for packaging10:34
seb128didrocks, you could move it to the ubuntu-desktop team if you prefer10:34
seb128that would be better than the unity one to start10:34
didrocksseb128: I proposed that as well, but pitti is more in favor for lp:ubuntu/10:35
didrocksso let's do that way10:35
seb128well then you can as well as james_w to alias the lp:ubuntu location to it10:35
seb128that's what we do for dx sources10:35
seb128indicators10:35
pittididrocks: ~branch is by and large ~ubuntu-desktop for desktop packages :)10:35
seb128well you need to ask james_w10:35
pittimeh, seems I'm not able to commit to notify-osd trunk any more10:36
seb128the autoimport source is not a derivative of the upstream vcs10:36
didrocksok, will do that then, setting up a list and pushing under ~ubuntu-desktop10:36
* pitti will do a MP10:36
seb128pitti, what error do you get? did you check the merge proposal for it?10:36
seb128it seems people were speaking about fixes for notify-osd last week10:36
pittiseb128: I only checked out trunk10:36
pittiseb128: usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: notify_osd-bubble.o: undefined reference to symbol 'XDeleteProperty'10:36
pittiit's a missing -lX1110:37
pittiseb128: will look at MPs10:37
pittiseb128: nope, nothing there; I'll do my own10:38
seb128pitti, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RobSavoye/GoldFixes/notify-osd10:38
seb128pitti, Sarvatt_ was working on it last week according to my logs10:39
pittiugh, most discoverable page ever :)10:39
seb128he uploaded a fixed version to a ppa apparently10:39
pittiSarvatt_: do you have a local notify-osd branch for that?10:39
seb128pitti, maybe check with him to no dup work10:39
pittiseb128: ok, I'll shelve that until later then10:39
pittiseb128: thanks for pointing out10:39
seb128np10:39
seb128xorg-edgers has it10:40
seb128hum no, the upload there failed to build10:41
seb128I will let Sarvatt_ comment ;-)10:41
pittiright10:41
pittinot that urgent10:42
seb128in any case would be nice if macslow could roll a tarball10:42
seb128the trunk has some bug fixes as well10:42
pittitwo or three, yes10:42
pittiperhaps he can do a MP review before, and get this fixed10:43
pittisince this requires autoconf changes10:43
seb128didrocks, speaking of unity spam, my unity box got some since last week ;-)10:52
didrocksseb128: yeah, I'm not eager of Monday morning because of that :-)10:53
didrocksseb128: btw, you restarted with the new version, isn't it?10:53
seb128didrocks, yes10:56
seb128why?10:56
didrocksseb128: just to know if everything's all right on upgrade (gnome-session and unity) :-)10:57
didrocksI had to remove the detection module on Friday evening, it was segfaulting for some people and finally they got to unity + gnome-panel10:57
seb128didrocks, in fact it's broken10:59
seb128well first I didn't dist-upgrade, I'm avoiding the python transition11:00
seb128so I upgraded unity and its depends11:00
seb128not gnome-session11:00
seb128but compiz crashes when I activate unity it seems now :-(11:00
didrocksseb128: oh ok11:00
didrockshum?11:00
seb128(I had until turned off before you asked)11:00
seb128Initializing staticswitcher options...done11:00
seb128** (process:3106): DEBUG: perf-logger.vala:62: shoop de whoop11:01
seb128and it seems to exit11:01
didrocksoh, you have the same issue than david11:01
didrocksweird, you both have it and with all the week-end spam, no report of an issue with latest unity11:01
seb128running "unity" works11:01
seb128hum no11:02
didrockshum… it shouldn't :)11:02
seb128it just starts compiz11:02
seb128(I had unity turned off again in ccsm)11:02
didrocksand when starting unity, it stops?11:02
didrocksoh ok11:03
didrocksso you changed your unity profile11:03
seb128it's easier to debug with a wm working :p11:03
didrocksdon't tell me! :-)11:03
seb128yes, I'm on my GNOME session11:03
seb128it's the standard compiz11:03
seb128I didn't touch ccsm out of activating unity11:03
didrocksok, should be good then setting-wise11:04
didrocksnot sure about the crash/exit11:04
didrocksI can just say that there is a similar report for a week11:04
chrisccoulsonpitti - i'm just about to upload a lucid SRU for pidgin (bug 683076), but the patch is absolutely massive. do you want to take a look before i upload?11:24
ubot2Launchpad bug 683076 in pidgin (Ubuntu) "pidgin can no longer log in to ICQ (affects: 27) (heat: 372)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/68307611:24
pittichrisccoulson: massive in size, or in how much code it touches?11:26
pittichrisccoulson: weird, I thought the one for maverick was just changing certificates or so (due to the server move)11:26
pittichrisccoulson: but if you tested it, please upload; easier to review from teh queue11:27
chrisccoulsonpitti - are you thinking about the recent change for MSN? that was quite a small patch11:27
pittichrisccoulson: I remember that11:27
pittichrisccoulson: but I thought we also fixed ICQ in maverick-updates11:28
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, i see that now. the maverick patch does look smaller, but it's more than changing a certificate11:29
chrisccoulsoni'll take a look at that11:29
seb128the lucid diff seemed small enough11:30
seb128out of the guy who did the debdiff included the .orig in it11:30
chrisccoulsonyeah, i just realised that ;)11:32
chrisccoulsond'oh!11:32
seb128hehe11:32
chrisccoulsonso it's smaller than it looks ;)11:32
seb128so it's ok? ;-)11:32
seb128when you can check the upstream commit11:32
seb128it seemed mostly ok to me iirc11:32
nessitahello everyone12:20
seb128hey nessita12:27
seb128how are you?12:27
seb128hey rickspencer312:27
rickspencer3hi seb12812:28
nessitahey seb128! pretty good, thanks. How about you?12:28
seb128I'm fine thanks12:29
seb128rickspencer3, how was the qa sprint? are you back on your side of the world?12:29
rickspencer3seb128, sprint was great, very productive, especially from the SRU testing perspsective12:31
rickspencer3and I'm in Seattle now, got here yesterday "afternoon", though my body clock is a bit screwy ;)12:31
seb128ok12:32
seb128rickspencer3, is there any summary of the sprint or its outcome somewhere?12:32
seb128or will someone write one?12:32
rickspencer3seb128, that can be done easily12:33
rickspencer3victorp kept it very well organized12:33
rickspencer3so he has index cards for each task started and completed12:33
seb128nice12:34
seb128I'm mostly curious to know if there anything we can pick up to improve what we do12:34
seb128like writing automatic testcases for SRU12:34
rickspencer3seb128, well, there are 3 kinds of testing that we covered12:37
rickspencer31. SRU certification testing12:38
rickspencer3so, if we are going to do an SRU, ensure that machines that certified to run Ubuntu in the Canonical cert lab stay that way12:38
rickspencer32. SRU regression testing12:38
rickspencer3try to make sure that a new kernel does not cause regressions, these are deeper tests, but on fewer machines12:38
rickspencer33. Desktop integration testing12:39
rickspencer3this is a set of daily tests to ensure that bugs and breakages are caught early12:39
rickspencer3I think we need more tests for #312:39
rickspencer3seb128, was that the kind of thing you were wondering about?12:39
seb128rickspencer3, if we should encourage sru uploads to come with a test testing the issue being fixed with the update12:40
seb128so we increase our testing coverages for applications as well and make sure the things we fix have a test12:40
rickspencer3seb128, is that to verify that the fix works, or to ensure that there are no regressions in that area in the future?12:40
seb128both12:41
rickspencer3seb128, that makes a lot of sense12:41
seb128rather to make sure we test for this bug so it doesn't come back12:41
rickspencer3seb128, that counts for bugs on desktop apps too, right?12:41
seb128right, I was rather thinking about applications bugs12:42
seb128those are easier to test12:42
rickspencer3ah12:42
rickspencer3that would be sweet, yes12:42
seb128if we care enough about a bug to SRU a fix we should be careful it doesn't come back12:42
rickspencer3true12:43
rickspencer3seb128, so, I need to write this up ... for testing apps I am seeing there are basically 3 ways to go about it12:44
rickspencer31. unit tests that work through the gtk builder object12:44
rickspencer32. GUI tests that use the accessability layer12:44
rickspencer33. sikuli (sic?) tests that work by taking screenshots12:44
rickspencer3between the 3, I don't think there is anything that is "untestable"12:44
rickspencer3#2 has the advantage of being easy to write tests when there are async aspects to the test12:45
rickspencer3like, it's easy to test if signals and such are working, if threads returns, etc... (well compared to #1)12:45
rickspencer3so we discussed last week that we may move all of the mago tests to trial and testtools, and create a MagoTest class in testtools12:46
rickspencer3(to make it easier to write tests with the accessibility layer)12:46
rickspencer3</sprint_summary>12:46
rickspencer3:)12:46
seb128rickspencer3, I see, I guess having a small example of each cases on a page and pointing that page from the SRU documentation would be a start12:48
seb128like "you are encouraged to write a test for the bug you fix, see that page if you need examples"12:49
rickspencer3seb128, right, we'll get there, and soon, lots of good work going on12:55
seb128great12:56
rickspencer3seb128, is it safe for me to dist-upgrade today? is that Python 2.6->2.7 transition settled?12:57
seb128it should yes12:57
seb128tell us how it works for you ;-)13:00
rickspencer3haha13:00
rickspencer3well, if I disappear and don't come back, you'll have your answer13:00
* rickspencer3 wants new launcher features13:00
nisshhrickspencer3, i have to get new hardware if i want to run Unity in 11.04 :(13:08
rickspencer3nisshh, :/13:08
nisshhand im broke, which doesnt exactly help :)13:08
rickspencer3nisshh, don't worry, seb128 will ensure that you get a great desktop experience with your current hardware13:08
rickspencer3you'll still be able to run 11.04, and you'll get all the same apps and capabilities, just a different shell13:09
nisshhrickspencer3, heh, well, i need to upgrade anyway, this is 8 year old hardware :)13:09
rickspencer3wow13:09
nisshhrickspencer3, but i want Unity... *goes and cries in the corner* :)13:09
rickspencer3hehe13:10
nisshhrickspencer3, yep, i have been running Ubuntu on a single core with 1GB of RAM :)13:10
nisshhonce i get new hardware im going to run irssi in screen on this machine so im on irc 24/713:11
seb128rickspencer3, what launcher features do you want?13:12
nisshhrickspencer3, is it unusual that compiz works on this machine with 10.04, but it says i cant run desktop effects in 11.0413:12
seb128I want a way to start the same software several times13:12
seb128I might be weird but I tend to open several firefox, I don't always use tabs in the running instance :p13:12
nisshhseb128, *raises hand* i would like to actually be able to run Unity :)13:12
seb128nisshh, desktop effect has not been updated for the new compiz13:13
rickspencer3seb128, I want the "start new instance of an app on the current workspace" feature13:13
nisshhseb128, yeah, i get the "your computer cannot run/use 3d acceleration" or whatever when i try to use Unity in 11.0413:14
rickspencer3so you can switch desktops, then use the launcher to create new instances instead of activating current instances13:14
nisshhyet i can run compiz fine on 10.1013:14
seb128nisshh, what videocard do you use?13:15
seb128rickspencer3, can we turn that to "let me start several instance of the same applications" so it fixes my issue as well? ;-)13:16
seb128rickspencer3, can we turn that to "let me start several instance of the same applications" so it fixes my issue as well? ;-)13:16
nisshhseb128, intel IGP on an 8 year old motherboard *waits for seb128 to wince* :)13:16
seb128ups13:16
seb128nisshh, can you use compiz without unity on natty?13:16
rickspencer3seb128, I think that's what the fix is13:17
seb128great13:17
nisshhseb128, no, i get that message when logging into Unity on natty and then i try and log into the classic desktop, but it doesnt like it13:17
didrocksrickspencer3: it's not, it was a debugging option that will be turned off next release13:17
rickspencer3by default, it will activate, but you can middle click or select "launch new instance" in the menu13:17
rickspencer3didrocks, oh?13:17
rickspencer3alex had it on in the sprint last week13:17
rickspencer3didrocks, I *neeeeed* this feature13:18
rickspencer3is it hard to turn on?13:18
nisshhi *may* be able to get my hands on a dual core with 6GB of RAM early next year though :)13:19
nisshhbut it wont really be worth it13:19
seb128nisshh, weird, normal compiz should still work13:19
seb128didrocks, what is a debugging option?13:20
seb128the "start in a new windows"?13:20
nisshhseb128, yeah, it was odd, i couldnt log into the classic desktop, i cant remember why it wouldnt let me13:20
nisshhfrom memory it just refused to go past the login screen13:20
seb128that needs debugging I guess13:21
seb128urg, unity crashed13:23
=== alecu_ is now known as alecu
chrisccoulsoni can't run hamster in unity! :(13:23
seb128there is a bug about that13:24
chrisccoulsonoh, that would be nice to have :)13:24
chrisccoulsoni use it all the time normally, and today is the first day i'm using unity during my working day13:24
chrisccoulsoni'm going to miss that quite quickly ;)13:24
didrocksok, disconnected13:25
didrocks14:17:55     didrocks | rickspencer3: I came in the middle of the discussion, but you are talking about the new entry menu, isn't i13:26
seb128didrocks, we are speaking about being able to run the same software several times13:26
seb128like middle click on the launcher icon or something13:26
rickspencer3didrocks, I have a bug logged on it13:26
rickspencer3the scenario is:13:26
didrocksseb128: yeah, it's still not decided13:26
rickspencer31. I have a web browser running on desktop 113:26
rickspencer3I switch to desktop 2, I want to run another browser window there, but I can't13:26
didrocksrickspencer3: I know, I commented on it Friday after wrongly closing it with the menu entry13:26
rickspencer3didrocks, can you paste a link to the bug?13:27
didrocks(I reopened it IIRC)13:27
seb128my scenario is easier than that13:27
seb128"I want to be able to have 2 firefox runnings"13:27
didrocksrickspencer3: trying to get it, without unity or gnome-panel, it's hard :)13:27
seb128I don't always use tabs, sometimes it's easier to have 2 of those in the alt-tab cycle13:27
seb128or 2 on screen with different content13:27
seb128next to each others13:27
rickspencer3seb128, for me, it's the multiple desktops scenario13:28
rickspencer3not desktops, work spaces13:28
seb128in any cases I think we need to be able to run something several times13:28
nisshhseb128, this computer is so slow and useless, my net connection will load a page and be waiting for my gpu to render the page its that slow13:28
chrisccoulsonisn't that what "Open New Window" does already, or did I miss something?13:29
seb128chrisccoulson,13:29
seb128<didrocks> rickspencer3: it's not, it was a debugging option that will be turned off next release13:29

bcurtiswx_seb128, i believe there's a mismatch between the GNOME3 PPA and natty with libgirepository-1.0-113:59
seb128bcurtiswx_, it's likely yes13:59
bcurtiswx_i guess some packages are still looking for the one without the - and the one with the - is trying to replace it14:00
seb128I will fix that today14:00
seb128thanks for pointing it14:00
bcurtiswx_yw, i believe (after some tinkering and guessing) it's what stopping me from getting the newest GTK3 to test my empathy build on14:01
hggdhhey folks, I got my nm-applet using 1.3 GB of real memory14:23
hggdhwould you like a bug for it?14:23
mdeslaurdidrocks: I've just upgraded to natty, and when I log in to the unity session, I don't get any indicators...any ideas?14:31
didrocksmdeslaur: the indicators is a seperate issue, there was an ABI transition in it. Are they all installed on your system?14:32
mdeslaurdidrocks: hey work in the classic desktop14:32
didrocksmdeslaur: are you up to date with each indicator component?14:32
mdeslaurdidrocks: I just did a dist-upgrade now14:32
didrockskenvandine: is the transition finished? ^14:32
seb128didrocks, it should14:35
didrocksmdeslaur: hum, you mean, you have all your indicators in the classic desktop and not in unity?14:36
didrocksmdeslaur: the top panel is blank?14:36
mdeslaurdidrocks: yes, the classic desktop has all the indicators. In unity, the top panel is blank, except for the ubuntu menu on the left14:36
didrocksmdeslaur: it the unity-panel-service running for you?14:37
bcurtiswx_mdeslaur, when loading unity i have those warnings that say they want to disable things on the top bar.  did you get those and click "don't reload" ?14:37
mdeslaurdidrocks: yes14:37
mdeslaurbcurtiswx: nope, no warning, nothing14:37
didrocksmdeslaur: can you try killing it and restart it, please?14:37
mdeslaurdidrocks: sure...nothing happened14:38
mdeslaurdidrocks: here are some logs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543068/14:38
seb128mdeslaur, dpkg -l | grep indicat14:39
mdeslaurseb128: http://paste.ubuntu.com/543070/14:39
seb128mdeslaur, what architecture do you use?14:39
didrocksseb128: I'm wondering if unity shouldn't be rebuilt for the transition as well? (the service at least)14:40
mdeslaurseb128: amd6414:41
seb128didrocks, unity was built after the transition, remember I retried on friday14:41
didrocksseb128: oh you're right, it was delayed on Friday14:41
seb128mdeslaur, if you uninstall indicator-datetime14:41
seb128does it work?14:41
seb128kenvandine, indicate-datetime still depwait on geoclue14:42
seb128can we build without it?14:42
didrocksok, indicator-datetime should be guilty then14:42
mdeslaurnope, doesn't work even with indicate-datetime uninstalled14:43
seb128what did you try?14:43
seb128or "how" did you try14:43
mdeslaurseb128: killing unity-panel-service and restarting it14:43
seb128can you compiz --replace?14:43
seb128restarting the service was not enough when I tried earlier14:44
mdeslaurseb128: ah! success :)14:44
seb128great14:44
* mdeslaur now has applets :)14:44
seb128kenvandine, keeeeeeeeeeeenn14:44
seb128;-)14:44
mdeslaureuh, indicators14:44
kenvandinehehe... i tested that14:45
kenvandineunity seemed fine without that rebuilt14:45
kenvandinewhich is confusing...14:45
highvoltagemdeslaur: you don't like indicators!?14:45
seb128kenvandine, still the current source is depwaiting14:45
kenvandinei know14:45
seb128can we build without geoclue?14:45
seb128is that an optional feature?14:45
kenvandinenope14:46
seb128:-(*14:46
kenvandinewe would need to re-upload the old version14:46
mdeslaurhighvoltage: of course I do, why wouldn't I like indicators?14:46
kenvandinebut... it shouldn't be breaking anything14:46
seb128kenvandine, ok, what is blocking promotion?14:46
seb128did you ping pitti about that on friday?14:46
highvoltagemdeslaur: I don't want to get into that :)14:46
seb128kenvandine, http://paste.ubuntu.com/543068/14:46
seb128kenvandine, that's what mdeslaur had14:47
kenvandinelet me look at the bug again, i think they said they wanted security to look14:47
mdeslaurhighvoltage: I honestly do like indicators.14:47
kenvandinehumm14:48
seb128kenvandine, can we build geoclue without ofono?14:48
kenvandinewe would lose a package14:48
seb128one which is useful?14:49
kenvandinedunno, we would need to check with asac14:49
Sarvatt_nisshh: save something like this as /etc/X11/xorg.conf    http://paste.ubuntu.com/543076/14:50
kenvandinei am curious why it is failing for him though14:50

seb128hey cyphermox14:56
seb128great, I will review and sponsor it14:56
cyphermoxthanks14:56
kenvandinedidrocks, unity panel is working for you with the updates right?14:56
cyphermoxnot sure if you really meant to update it up to git head, but the last commit there seemed useful enough14:57
didrockskenvandine: I didn't update to the indicator transition14:57
kenvandinehumm14:57
didrockskenvandine: look at #ubuntu-devel, seems kirkland has the same issue14:57
kenvandinei tested it all on a pristine box with unity14:57
didrockskenvandine: and I saw 2 bug reports with people complaining about it14:57
didrocksI was thinking the transition wasn't finished14:58
kenvandineugh14:58
kenvandinei thought it was14:58
kenvandinemy tested had included the updated indicator-datetime, but i reverted it and it still seems fine14:58
didrocksdid you restart or logout?14:59
kenvandinerestarted14:59
kenvandinea bunch of times now, and it is fine14:59
kenvandinehumm... actually, it has unity built from my pbuilder, not the archive15:00
pittijasoncwarner, seb128: FYI, I created an updated meeting template at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/NewMeetingTemplate15:01
ari-tczewhey folks, I need your help15:01
seb128pitti, thanks15:02

ari-tczewhowever, I tried to built on natty chroot and it's FTBFS15:02
seb128the places need to be updates to the new unity15:03
ari-tczewdidrocks: are you familiar with unity packages?15:03
seb128that's an alpha2 task15:03
seb128we could probably drop them from now15:03
seb128or just wait that upstream get them working15:03
seb128kenvandine, pitti: unity is broken on current natty15:03
ari-tczewnot good, not good :(15:04
kenvandineseb128, hang on... testing something15:04
seb128what are the option?15:04
didrocksari-tczew: yes15:04
seb128if we think ofono and geoclue will be fine can we just promote libgeoclue?15:04
didrocksari-tczew: the places are for later, right15:04
seb128to get the new build in, we can sort the mir later15:04
kenvandineugh, tested with the unity from the archive and the latest built indicator-datetime in natty and it works fine15:07
kenvandineseb128, getting it promoted would be good, i am just not sure that is the real problem15:08
kenvandinei really wish we could test unity in a VM...15:08
seb128kenvandine, how did you test?15:09
seb128kenvandine, do you have any error when running the panel service?15:09
kenvandinenot from datetime15:09
kenvandinejust one warning15:09
kenvandine** (unity-panel-service:3977): WARNING **: Unable to find the file menu stock item15:10
kenvandinewhich happens between loading datetime and libme15:10
kenvandinethe error looks more like it is related to DbusmenuClient15:12
kenvandinewhich comes from libdbusmenu-glib15:12
seb128weird15:13
seb128dpkg -l | grep indicator15:13
seb128can you pastbin that?15:13
kenvandinehttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/543084/15:14
seb128kenvandine, hum, I don't spot anything obvious15:18
kenvandineyeah, seems sane to me15:18
Sarvattseb128, pitti: sorry guys, I never got around to making notify-osd to build on natty, the bug I uploaded it to the PPA for was fixing incorrect rendering with newer pixman but newer pixman still isn't passing the test suite on the natty toolchain unless I it's build with -O1 or lower15:18
kenvandinei just ran through and re-installed everything specifying natty15:19
kenvandineto make sure none were locally built15:19
seb128kenvandine, well in any case we need the indicator rebuilt15:19
kenvandineand still works15:19
pittiSarvatt: ok, so I'll try to fix the build error independently then15:22
kenvandineseb128, i am re-installing this test box to try to reproduce it15:35
kenvandinethis is weird15:35
seb128what?15:36
kenvandinethe unity panel problem15:36
kenvandinei now have no packages locally built and it still works15:37
seb128you restarted the service and compiz?15:38
kenvandineand rebooted15:38
kenvandineand re-installed all the packages15:38
seb128ok, so dunno15:38
kenvandineted had said he didn't think all the indicators would need to be rebuilt, just appmenu-gtk and indicator-appmenu15:38
seb128do you still have the old libs around?15:38
kenvandinei don't think so...15:38
didrockswell, if fixed it as well for kirkland15:39
seb128did you see the pastebin before?15:39
kenvandineyeah15:39
seb128it worked for mdeslaur as well15:39
kenvandineso after just rebuilding the appmenu related stuff i still had problems getting the unity panel to load15:39
kenvandinewhich confused ted15:39
kenvandineso i rebuilt the indicators and that fixed it, which he though was weird15:39
seb128kenvandine, it was working in indicator-applet for me15:39
seb128but not in unity15:39
kenvandinebut then when indicator-datetime was still held up i downgraded that and unity still worked15:40
seb128like my gnome-panel had all indicators15:40
seb128but the unity panel was empty15:40
kenvandineyeah, so unity doesn't seem very robust, if it fails to load any indicator they all fail15:40
kenvandinei'll file a bug about that, if ted didn't already15:41
kenvandinewe could just upload indicator-datetime 0.1.90.is.really.0.0.615:41
kenvandine:)15:41
kenvandinethe quickest fix15:42
seb128or promote geoclue15:46
kenvandineyeah15:46
seb128dbarth, ^15:46
kenvandinei really wish the geoclue code in indicator-datetime was optional15:47
kenvandinebut it is not... :/15:47
dbarthkenvandine: what's the issue, a hard dep on the geoclue lib?15:50
kenvandinekind of15:51
kenvandinedeps for geoclue are still be reviewed by the security team15:51
seb128dbarth, your issue is that indicator-datetime needs a rebuild with the new libdbusmenu15:51
kenvandineand indicator-datetime is breaking unity15:51
seb128but it can't right now because geoclue and ofono needs to be promoted for that15:51
dbarthdoes that have anything to do with the new gdbus ports?15:54
kenvandineno15:54
bcurtiswx_ugh, evince now segfaults on me15:55
bcurtiswx_(evince:2223): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to load type module: (null)15:56
bcurtiswx_that error repeated along with `menu_proxy_module_load': evince: undefined symbol: menu_proxy_module_load15:56
dbarthkenvandine: so why did that suddenly break?15:58
dbarthwhat should i do / ask for to unblock that situtation?15:58
kenvandinedbusmenu abi changes15:58
dbarthbut that's for the new gdbus port then, isn't it?15:58
kenvandineno15:58
dbarthhow come does the old version suddenly break apis?15:59
dbarthabis?15:59
kenvandinenew version, prior to gdbus port15:59
kenvandine0.3.9015:59
dbarthoh, when there were not enough funcitons left anymore15:59
kenvandineseems indicator-datetime is keeping unity-panel-service from loading indicators15:59
kenvandinewithout a rebuild15:59
seb128bcurtiswx_, is appmenu-gtk installed?16:01
kenvandineseb128, so did indicator-datetime work for you in the classic panel?16:01
seb128I didn't try16:01
dbarthi removed indicator-datetime here and it doesn't solve the problem16:01
seb128in fact my issue was that appmenu-gtk was not updated16:01
seb128dbarth, did you restart the service and compiz?16:01
dbarthbut it was working when i was using gnome-panel earlier today16:01
seb128dbarth, compiz --replace16:01
dbarththat said, i've kept most packages from alpha-116:02
seb128kenvandine, it just means unity is not robust to buggy indicator16:02
seb128dbarth, you need to update indicator-*16:02
kenvandineseb128, i am just wondering if it works in indicator-applet16:02
seb128dbarth, sudo apt-get remove libdbusmenu-glib16:02
seb128dbarth, sudo apt-get remove libdbusmenu-glib116:02
seb128dbarth, don't do it but it will give you a list ;-)16:02
dbarthahah16:03
kenvandineyou should be able to leave  libdbusmenu-glib116:03
seb128kenvandine, you can't remove it16:03
dbarthoops16:03
dbarthi see16:03
seb128kenvandine, evolution-indicator and xchat-indicator will need a rebuild16:04
kenvandineyeah16:04
dbarthbut so again, explain me why an abi change from maverick is breaking packages *now*?16:04
seb128dbarth, the abi change landed friday16:04
kenvandinenot maverick16:04
kenvandinethursday :)16:04
dbarthhmm16:05
seb128kenvandine, no, it was in NEW thursday :p16:05
kenvandinewell, builds landed16:05
kenvandinefriday16:05
kenvandineright16:05
bcurtiswx_seb128, yes16:05
seb128;-)16:05
kenvandineugh... now i can't do a fresh install16:05
dbarthhmm, let's switch to #ayatana to see with tedg16:05
seb128bcurtiswx_, you can unset UBUNTU_MENUPROXY16:05
seb128it's a workaround though16:06
kenvandinedbarth, he is gone until jan16:06
bcurtiswx_seb128, yes, doesn't stop the segfault though :( i think it will all be fixed once apt lets me upgrade to GTK 2.91.616:07
bcurtiswx_if I have an app that deps on telepathy-python and that was just renamed to python-telepathy, will it still build or fail due to the name change16:09
seb128bcurtiswx_, it will likely needs to be rebuilt with a change16:09
bcurtiswx_seb128, OK thats telepathy-butterfly that i'm talking about.. right now it's synced so should It get that fix and an 0ubuntu1 tag ?16:10
seb128what issue do you have?16:10
didrockspitti: do you have a branch for unity-asset-pool that is derived from ~unity-team/unity-asset-pool/packaging that I can push to ~ubuntu-destop ?16:10
pittididrocks: I pushed to lp:ubuntu/unity-asset-pool16:11
pittididrocks: I thought we wanted to move to that one?16:11
seb128pitti, no, as said it's a bit harder than that16:11
seb128we need james_w16:11
bcurtiswx_butterfly is at 0.5.14-1 in natty and upstream its 0.5.15 but it depends on telepathy-butterfly (so by what you said, I'll assume it would fail build)16:11
pittididrocks: if not, I can apply the changes to the old branch, too16:11
bcurtiswx_eek16:11
seb128pitti, we don't want to use the autoimport vcs since they don't derivate from the upstream vcs16:12
bcurtiswx_telepathy-python **16:12
pittiseb128: ah, I see; the old problem16:12
seb128pitti, ie you can't bzr merge a revision16:12
didrockspitti: right, it doesn't work with the merge-upstream workflow :)16:12
seb128pitti, so we want ~unity-team/unity-asset-pool/packaging to become the lp:ubuntu one16:12
seb128which james_w can do16:12
didrocksso, I'm pushing everything to ~ubuntu-desktop now16:12
seb128didrocks, thanks16:12
pittididrocks: ok, so want me to apply my commits to that new branch?16:13
didrockspitti: if you don't have that, I can reproduce your commits in the old branch, no worry16:13
seb128bcurtiswx_, doesn't seem that anybody changed the naming there?16:13
didrockspitti: no worry, it was just in case you had it, will reproduce that then :)16:13
pittididrocks: ok, thanks; I'm sorry for the misunderstanding; otherwise I had used that one right away16:13
seb128bcurtiswx_, can you ask on #telepathy if anybody plans to update to 0.5.15 in debian16:13
bcurtiswx_yes, will do16:13
didrockspitti: no worry :) thanks a lot :)16:13
pittididrocks: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/60583271/unity-asset-pool_0.8.18-0ubuntu1_0.8.18-0ubuntu2.diff.gz ?16:13
pittididrocks: (the individual commits weren't that interesting, taking the full diff will do fine)16:14
didrockspitti: ok, will do that then. Thanks!16:14
bcurtiswx_seb128, nvm about that, we do things right.  It's more me not knowing this yet.16:23
bdrungi have installed date-time idicator in my natty VM, but it isn't shown16:28
bdrung(using the classic gnome desktop)16:28
pittibdrung: I don't know, but my gut feeling is that it hides itself on gnome-panel, as this has its own clock16:29
bdrungpitti: is there a way to enable it?16:30
pittiI don't know16:30
seb128no, it's just that it needs a rebuild16:30
seb128which is blocked on geoclue16:30
seb128indicator-applet "handles" that by not showing the indicator16:31
seb128where unity breaks16:31
bdrungmy second issue is that the indicator-applet isn't shown (only one pixel white vertical line on the panel) after the recent update. only the session indicator-applet is shown.16:33
jcastrobdrung: that happened to me today too16:34
kenvandineseb128, didrocks: a fresh install from today's live image works16:40
kenvandineunity-panel that is16:40
kenvandineit must be a lib16:40
kenvandinedidrocks, can you give me a dpkg -l16:41
didrockskenvandine: hum, I'm not up-to-date here16:41
kenvandinehumm16:41
kenvandineok16:41
didrocksI didn't go through the indicator transition yet16:41
kenvandineok16:41
kenvandineseb128, are you up-to-date now?16:41
* kenvandine checks with kirkland16:42
seb128kenvandine, well indicators wise yes16:42
seb128but I've some hundred other updates pending16:42
kenvandinehow about dbusmenu and libindicate?16:43

mptmvo, here's another report of the "ValueError: unknown locale: en_NG" in USC. <http://openubuntu.com/index.php/topic,269.msg29120.html>16:50
Ngmpt: it's awful that my locale doesn't exist!16:55
kenvandineseb128, in comparing the fresh install and kirkland's list, the only thing that differs is really the -dev packages16:55
mptNg, almost as awful as overeager nick highlighting16:55
Ngmpt: indeed!16:56
mpt(I'm glad there has been little activity on the MPT-Fusion driver front lately)16:57
mptmvo, tremolux: I forgot to mention: Right now I'm sketching out different possibilities for bug 670403, so I'll have something for you and the Unity developers to discuss in the next few days.16:58

kenvandinebut i am grabbing some food now... bbl :)17:19

didrockssee you kenvandine17:19
seb128kenvandine, enjoy17:19
seb128kenvandine, did you figure why it broke?17:20

seb128updated, or patched or something ;-)17:21
seb128I'm pinging you because apparently you maintain it in debian as well17:21
cyphermoxdidrocks, yeah, I just added it, it was missing :)17:22

bcurtiswxkenvandine, how could I verify?21:47
kenvandinelook in ccsm i guess21:47
kenvandineor in .xsession-errors maybe21:47
bcurtiswxkenvandine, ah. got it.. i know what happened21:48
bcurtiswxi had disabled the plugin, found out unity was running still on reboots so i kept it off21:49
kenvandine:)21:49
bcurtiswxtodays updates must have noticed the plugin was off and acted correctly21:49
bcurtiswxso does this mean i hate when things run the way they're supposed to?21:49
