RenatoSilvawhat is the acl package used for?00:29
RenatoSilvaseems useless, no package depends on it, and the package which suggests it is not installed00:29
JanCit's used for accessing file ACLs00:34
RenatoSilvaok, just removed it00:39
JanCif you are on a single user system, it's probably not that useful...00:40
RenatoSilvaI have more than one user here00:40
RenatoSilvado you mean if I just use standard unix permissions?00:41
JanCit allows more fine-grained file permissions than the standard unix permissions00:41
RenatoSilvathat package seems installed out of nothing00:41
RenatoSilvano one depends on it, the only one who suggests it is not installed, and acl package description is broken, non-ascii chars not properly displayed00:42
JanC?00:42
JanCis it a translated description?00:43
RenatoSilvacrazy! now after that I removed it and went there to c&p to you, description is fixed!00:43
RenatoSilvahmm no wait, it's in english now, for some reason00:44
RenatoSilvabut was in portuguese when installed, now I install and description still remains in english00:44
crimsunacl is quite useful in troubleshooting sound bugs, actually00:45
RenatoSilvacrimsun: interesting, I was having trouble to hear that sound when you log in, I accidentally fixed it by deleting ~/.pulse which had some links to /tmp inside, so I guessed it was some permission issue00:46
RenatoSilvaJanC: maybe this and the sound issue, and other issues, are related to not having done a clean install since a long time00:47
crimsunthat's a pulse bug, yes, and it's somewhat difficult to trace00:47
RenatoSilvaJanC: I have been upgrading since a few years00:47
JanCRenatoSilva: the 'acl' package only contains the command line tools for POSIX ACL support00:48
JanCyou still have the libraries and kernel components installed...00:48
RenatoSilvaok00:48
RenatoSilvaI have had some trouble trying to clean my system from useless packages you know00:49
JanCI haven't installed this system since 2006 or 2007 either  ;)00:49
RenatoSilvaapt-get autoremove does some job, system > admin > maintainer too, gtkorphaned too, but that's not enougth00:49
RenatoSilvawell the maintainer just does the same as autoremove it seems00:50
JanC"maintainer"?00:50
JanCI guess that's Computer Janitor?00:51
RenatoSilvaMantenedor do sistema in portuguese, I guess it's "System maintainer" under System > Admin menu00:51
RenatoSilvahttp://images.tothetech.com/2009/07/ubuntu-menu-computer-janitor.jpg00:51
RenatoSilvathat's it, janitor00:52
JanCjanitor does more than only autoremove00:52
JanCbut autoremove is one part of it00:52
RenatoSilvaexample of gtkorphan not being enough: there's a check which shows hpricot which is a ruby lib I actually need00:52
RenatoSilvaand when libtool was installed, it wasn't showing in the list (when you check the show all not only libs option)00:53
RenatoSilvaJanC: yeah I just mean about the useless packages, in that case janitor is the same as autoremove00:53
JanCit's not always possible for the computer to know what you still need00:54
JanCor not00:54
RenatoSilvaso now I need to manually guess, package by package, which ones are not dependency of some other one, then look at package description and name, and decide to purge or not. A lot of fun :)00:54
RenatoSilvaoh gtkorphan also lists ubunt-desktop, and *itself* o.O00:55
JanCdo you use aptitude sometimes?00:55
RenatoSilvaapt-get sometimes, aptitude not so much00:56
RenatoSilvamostly I don't use aptitude, but apt-get00:56
JanCI'd suggest you don't mix aptitude with other apt tools00:56
JanCbecause it keeps it's own, different database of packages that were installed on purpose vs. as a dependency00:57
RenatoSilvaI just think there should be a command telling the packages which were manually installed and are not dependency of no other package (end-user apps etc). This way we could know all packages that were (in theory) installed by the users, so we can clean the system (I think I probably have a lot of useless packages still installed but I have no easy way to figure out what they are)00:57
RenatoSilvaI think I have never installed or removed anything with aptitude00:58
RenatoSilvaI'm using today for 'why package', I remember using it some time ago but I think it wasn't for [un]installing00:58
RenatoSilvathanks all anyway01:03
hallyn_my natty netbook seems to have lost netbook.  when i choose 'ubuntu desktop edition'  in gdm, i get an empty screen.  are there some directories i can just remove to reset, or is this expected at the moment?01:54
hallyn_(i can control-alt-t to get a terminal, and compiz is running - but no panels or anything)01:55
hallyn_oh and i can log into 'classic desktop' just fine.  so is 'ubuntu desktop edition' supposed to work?01:57
charlie-tcahallyn_: yes, if your video card supports it02:13
charlie-tcaIt has to have enough onboard memory, openGL, and 3d support02:13

RenatoSilvahow about finger, is it an important package? I'm about to purge it03:46
crimsunnot really ;)03:46
RenatoSilvathanks, how about humanity-theme x human-theme? about to purge the latter03:50
RenatoSilvasorry it's humanity-icon-theme03:51
RenatoSilvabut human-theme shows as orphan in deboprhan03:51

dpmhi pitti, a quick question that's come up in the translators list while testing the maverick langpacks: if someone has got the langpacks PPA enabled, do the langpacks in maverick-proposed take precedence and get installed?13:03
seb128dpm, the newest version get installed13:04
seb128what version are in the ppa and in the proposed update?13:04
dpmhey seb128. They're both the same version, that's why I'm asking, as I'm not sure what happens in that case13:05
seb128does it matter?13:05
seb128if they are the same version they should be the same content?13:05
seb128check with mvo but I don't think it's a fixed order if you have the same version in different sources13:06
seb128dpm, the proposed updates a pocket copy from the ppa no?13:07
dpmyou're right, it does not matter, but the question came up, and I wasn't sure what to answer. So I take it if they're both the same version one does not take precedence over the other, i.e. if the langpack from the ppa is installed, the one with the same version in maverick-proposed will not be installed13:07
dpmseb128, yes, it's a copy13:07
seb128I would think that if the checksum is the same for both there is no reason it would be reinstalled13:08
seb128but check with mvo to be sure13:08
dpmmvo, if you are around and you've got a minute, here's a question for you ^^ :)13:08
dpmpitti, if that is the case, could you disable the next ppa langpack scheduled for tomorrow until testing has finished? Otherwise people might be testing a newer langpack if it is built tomorrow in the ppa13:10

mterrydidrocks, oh, OK13:41
mterrydidrocks, yay13:41
didrocksmterry: yeah, there were some renaming leftover13:41
mvodpm: hi, if they are exactly the same version then nothing will happen but they really need to be same version and same content. but if that is the case, the maverick-proposed one is not installed (as there is no reason to do that)13:42

cyphermoxah, ok14:12
hallyn_charlie-tca: I see .cache/compiz-1 and .config/compizconfig1 but nothing resembling 'unity'14:12

bcurtiswxseb128, mterry. libgirepository-1.0-1 reminder in the GNOME3 PPA14:26
mterrybcurtiswx, ah, right.  The PPA14:26
seb128bcurtiswx, seems only gedit uses the wrong one14:26
seb128but the current version doesn't build with the current GTK14:27
bcurtiswxso a test would be to remove gedit and see if it installed14:27
bcurtiswxnope, it still wants to remove ubuntu-desktop. hmm14:28
seb128can you copy the upgrade log?14:29
seb128on pastbin or something14:29
bcurtiswxseb128, http://paste.ubuntu.com/543614/14:30
seb128bcurtiswx, what is the issue with that log?14:31
seb128well only gedit needs a rebuild14:32
seb128you can sudo apt-get install gedit/natty14:32
bcurtiswxit wants to remove ubuntu-desktop14:32
cdbsIS there some issue with unity ATM? I am unable to start 'Ubuntu Desktop Edition'14:32
cdbsafter an update14:32
bcurtiswxcdbs, did you disable the plugin in ccsm by any chance?14:33
mterrycdbs, try unity --reset in a terminal (ctrl+alt+t to get one)14:33
cdbsmterry: :o will try that14:33
cdbsbcurtiswx: I didn't open ccsm for a long time14:33
hallyn_hm, well, unity --reset from classic desktop works, but subsequent logins still fail, and then i wasn't getting my network notifier14:33
mterrycdbs, some gsettings path changed or something like that14:33
hallyn_(so i couldn't get on my broadband net)14:33
mterryhallyn_, oh, I hadn't tried logging out/in again14:33
cdbsokay, attempt according to what mterry said14:34
hallyn_mterry: after unity --replace, is it safe to just kill gnome-pane?14:34
seb128why do you need that?14:34
mterryhallyn_, should be14:34
hallyn_well, what is the name of the network indicator?14:34
hallyn_so i can restart it?14:34
seb128gnome-panel should not be running under unity14:34
bcurtiswxseb128, http://paste.ubuntu.com/543618/ says gedit already newest version14:34
mterryhallyn_, nm-applet14:35
hallyn_it's running in the classic desktop,14:35
hallyn_so when i then do 'unity --reset' it stays up14:35
mterryhallyn_, oh you might want to log into new desktop then14:35
seb128oh, compiz --replace then14:35
hallyn_mterry: i thought we werent' usig applets14:35
hallyn_mterry: i might, but it hangs with a little clock cursor14:35
hallyn_mterry: pretty sure nm-applet just said it was already running14:35
seb128bcurtiswx, gedit=2.30.4-1ubuntu314:35
seb128then14:36
hallyn_oh maybe that was the problem, didn't shut down cleanly?14:36
mterryhallyn_, it doesn't use a notification-icon, but the binary is called nm-applet and shows an indicator14:36
hallyn_hm14:36
cdbsmterry: worked14:36
mterryhallyn_, right.  When you get that hang, press ctrl+alt+t and run unity --reset14:36
mterryhallyn_, not that the command is --reset not --replace14:36
hallyn_mterry: that's what i used to do until yeterday14:36
hallyn_mterry: now, it *really* hangs, and ctrl-alt-t does nothing14:36
mterryhallyn_, I see.  didrocks ^14:36
cdbshallyn_: its best to create a launcher on the desktop to start unity --reset14:37
cdbssince ctrl+alt+t doesn't work when compiz hangs14:37
hallyn_cdbs: ?14:37
mterrydidrocks, is unity --reset something one has to run every time?14:37
hallyn_mterry: correction, i used to do ctrl-alt-t and then run 'compiz'14:37
cdbshallyn_: create a launcher on your desktop14:37
bcurtiswxseb128, OK, to try the upgrade i'll have to manually upgrade everything instead of a dist-upgrade.. right?14:37
didrocksmterry: no, there is an compiz upstream gconf path change14:38
mterryhallyn_, right.  unity --reset is a one-time thing that fixes some gsettings paths that recently got migrated (is my layman's understanding).  So I believe you are hitting that.  but compiz --replace just restarts compiz14:38
seb128bcurtiswx, just apt-get upgrade14:39
seb128bcurtiswx, it should do the right thing14:39
bcurtiswxseb128, haha, it tried to upgrade gedit.. and not updating the gtk like i had hoped14:39
hallyn_ok, htanks guys - at this point i'm afraid of logging out again for fear of not being able to get back on the net, so i'll just stay put, get some work done, and try again later :)14:40
mterryhallyn_, :)14:40
seb128bcurtiswx, well just remove gedit for now14:40
seb128or wait for it to be rebuilt14:40
bcurtiswxseb128, libgirepository-1.0-1 still tries to remove ubuntu-desktop.. as far as I know i _should_ be able to upgrade the GTK's14:41

seb128just upgrade libgtk3.0-014:42
mterrybcurtiswx, no14:42
seb128bcurtiswx, you don't even need the ppa to use gtk3 it's in natty14:42
bcurtiswxseb128, OK.  still gtk3.0 wants to remove ubuntu-desktop.. what can I do to narrow down whats causing that?14:42
bcurtiswxaptitude why-not ubuntu-desktop?14:43
bcurtiswxdoesn't know why to remove ubuntu-desktop14:43

looldobey: No15:42
looldobey: debuild just calls dpkg-buildpackage which calls debian/rules <various targets>; it all depends on the package15:42
looldobey: In the case of libubuntuone, there are multiple builds to accomodate for various python versions (e.g. one build for python2.6, and one for 2.7 for instance)15:43
dobeylool: hrmm, i am just very surprised this hasn't ever broken before15:44
looldobey: this as introduced recently:15:45

looldobey: this one failed to build, then ubuntu5 was fixed to build, but it actually failed to sign the .dll15:46
dobeyright15:47
dobeyi guess distcheck doesn't care if the dll is unsigned though15:49
dobeylool: do you know if there is an easy wya to check if the dll is signed properly, without building the package and trying to install it?15:55
dobeynm, i found something16:06
ricotzchrisccoulson, hello, i just saw https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/69004516:07
chrisccoulsonhi ricotz16:08
ricotzchrisccoulson, does this mean the gnome3 builds (like gnome-session-daemon) wont make it into natty?16:08
ricotzseb128, hi, ^16:09
GunnarHjpitti: Wow, that was fast. ;-) Glad that I succeeded in convincing you about the 'odd' use of the dmrc Language field.16:09
GunnarHjpitti: I encountered a side issue: My attempts to update my ppa for Maverick were rejected with the message: "Unhandled exception processing upload: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'md5'"16:09
seb128ricotz, they will not16:09
chrisccoulsonricotz, most probably, yes (which is the reason for removing gnome-shell. we'll be evaluating which packages to upgrade this cycle16:09
ubot2Launchpad bug 690045 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "Please remove and blacklist gnome-shell (affects: 1) (heat: 18)" [Wishlist,Fix released]16:09
pittiGunnarHj: hm, no idea about that exception; perhaps the changes didn't get signed or so?16:10
seb128ricotz, or rather it's not likely (not really decided yet though)16:10
ricotzseb128, chrisccoulson, :(, that's a bummer16:10
ricotzwhat are the main problems?16:10
GunnarHjpitti: I've tried just about everything. Seems like something has happened at the Launchpad side.16:10
seb128ricotz, read the gnome3 blueprint?16:10
seb128ricotz, I did summaries in the whiteboard16:11
GunnarHjpitti: Uploading for Natty worked fine.16:11
ricotzseb128, oh, no i didnt, could you give the link?16:11
pittiGunnarHj: hm, that's a #launchpad matter then, I'm afraid16:11
seb128https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-desktop-n-gnome316:12
seb128ricotz, ^16:12
GunnarHjpitti: Ok, I'll report it there.16:12
seb128ricotz, but basically we don't feel confident we can integrate GNOME3 in one cycle16:12
seb128ricotz, it's not even clear it will be ready in time16:12
seb128ricotz, integrate -> do a solid work of integrating it16:13
ricotzmhh, i see, but isnt it a bigger problem to introduce it partly16:13
seb128you mean16:13
seb128?16:13
seb128ricotz, we don't introduce it at all, we maintain a ppa with it16:13
ricotzyeah, i relalized that ;)16:14
seb128you can't easily bring pieces in16:14
seb128see the whiteboard on the spec16:14
ricotzbut i think i should be the goal to introduce it, debian experimental has cought up this weekend16:15
seb128well it's already in the ppa16:15
seb128what debian experimental has to do with that?16:15
seb128experimental is like a debian ppa16:15
seb128the ppa has lot of GNOME3 sources that debian doesn't have yet16:15
bcurtiswxkenvandine, http://paste.ubuntu.com/543667/16:16
ricotzseb128, ok, alright16:16
bcurtiswxkenvandine, thats in the natty empathy version not the one i'm building16:16
seb128ricotz, having it in the ppa almost mean we can get contributors particpating in an easy way16:16
seb128ricotz, we also don't need to stop on freezes16:17
seb128ricotz, we will revisit moving it to natty if it's ready in time16:17
seb128ricotz, I don't see what is your issue with that16:17
seb128it should allow us to do a better job on GNOME316:17
seb128getting updates after freezes if required16:17
ricotzseb128, mhh, yes, this sounds right16:17
seb128and getting testing easily without breaking natty16:17
seb128ricotz, great ;-)16:17
seb128ricotz, btw we welcome people helping getting it in shape or working on updates16:18
ricotzseb128, i just was hooping to get a working gnome-shell ppa for natty again16:18
seb128ir you want to help there...16:18
seb128ricotz, you can base your ppa on th GNOME3 one16:18
seb128if you want to maintain g-s releases in the GNOME3 ppa please do16:18
seb128we have nobody actively working on that yet16:19
seb128bcurtiswx, grep libindicate in the debian dir?16:19
ricotzyeah, currently the gnome3-build are a bit broken with latest gtk update16:19
seb128ricotz, yeah, if you want to fix gedit for example please do ;-)16:19
ricotzseb128, unfortunatelly, there are mostly git snapshots needed16:19
seb128well we can backport patches16:20
seb128it's easier than snapshot16:20
bcurtiswxseb128, thats with the natty version, which was working fine. keyword _was_16:20
ricotzseb128, mhh, i think git snapshots are easier16:20
seb128ricotz, well I use git diff > patch16:21
seb128ricotz, then copy in the debian dir16:21
seb128ricotz, I find it easier than doing tarballs16:21
ricotzseb128, doing patches for packages which will get new release every week or two16:21
seb128well you drop the git diff at the next version update16:21
ricotzseb128, yeah, i know, but it it likely there are more dependend changes16:21
seb128bcurtiswx, what is crashing this way?16:21
seb128ricotz, well let's wait for the next tarballs then16:22
ricotzseb128, ok, it see16:22
seb128ricotz, gtk3 should stop breaking abi in the next weeks16:22
seb128then it will be easier16:22
seb128or maybe it stopped already with some luck16:22
seb128so after the next tarballs it should be better16:22

pittiany non-regular meeting topics from anyone?16:34

pittiseb128: the actions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Meeting/2010-12-0716:34
pittijasoncwarner: here by chance? feeling better now?16:34
seb128pitti, oh ok, I was reading the next meeting agenda16:34
seb128oh, mterry and chrisccoulson ;-)16:34
mterryhihi16:35
pittichrisccoulson, mterry: hello16:35
chrisccoulsonbreaking unity before desktop meeting = not good :)16:35
pittiso, nobody else had some news for last week? the weekly status is quite short this time16:35
seb128chrisccoulson, -before desktop meeting16:35
ricotzseb128, is it possible to get access to the gnome3 ppa?16:35
chrisccoulson;)16:35
pitti[TOPIC] partner update16:36
pittikenvandine:16:36
kenvandineyup16:36
seb128pitti, nothing fancy, standard updates and bug cleaning...16:36
seb128ricotz, let's discuss that after the meeting16:36
kenvandineDX:16:36
pittiseb128: (I just feel bad about owning this section)16:36
seb128ricotz, but basically not easily right now the team gives access to ubuntu upload as well, but you can do merge requests we review them often16:36
seb128pitti, I will add some ;-)16:37
kenvandinedbusmenu, appindicator and libindicate fixes for GI and python are in which required a rebuild of the whole indicator stack16:37
kenvandinehopefully the fallout is over from that16:37
kenvandinethe port to gdbus is stuck16:37
pittikenvandine: is that the reason for all the crashes?16:37
kenvandinepitti, apparently :)16:37
kenvandineare they still happening?16:37
pitti(it still crashes for me, dist-upgrade from an hour ago)16:37
kenvandinehumm16:37
pittibut anyway, off-meeting topic16:38
kenvandineping me after please16:38
pittikenvandine: stuck> anythign blocking from our side?16:38
kenvandineno...16:38
kenvandinetedg on vacation16:38
kenvandinedbusmenu and appindicator are ported16:38
pittiah, holiday-stuck16:38
kenvandineand in a ppa16:38
kenvandinebut16:38
kenvandinecan't be used until appmenu-gtk is ported to gdbus16:38
seb128pitti, define crash16:38
seb128pitti, do you still run a gnome-panel and get applets crashing on login?16:39
pittiseb128: tons of "indicator-blah crashed [Reload] [Remove]" dialogs at session start16:39
seb128pitti, if that's the case that's a known compiz bug16:39
seb128compiz bug then16:39
pittiseb128: yes, I run g-p16:39
seb128smspillaz and didrocks know about it16:39
pittikenvandine: sorry for keepign interrupting you16:39
seb128it's being worked but non trivial to fix it seems16:39
seb128yeah sorry kenvandine16:39
didrockscompiz is agressive at reparenting16:40
pittiseb128: thanks for heads-up16:40
kenvandinedon't have much for U1, the have the control panel in NEW16:40
kenvandinethat is all i have16:40
seb128didn't I new that last week?16:40
pittikenvandine: thanks; can you please add some notes to teh report page, too? that was quite interesting16:40
seb128or is it binNEW now?16:40
kenvandinesure16:40
kenvandinei think sourceNEW16:40
pittiUNity and Software-Center reports are on the wiki page16:41
kenvandinei'll check and ping you16:41
pittido you guys think we should paste them here again, or do you prefer reading it there?16:41
didrocksI'll just add once the lock is away " Working on making the reset automatic for people right now."16:41
didrocksotherwise, it's on the wiki :)16:41
didrockskenvandine: you expired, can I paste?16:42
kenvandinedidrocks, done16:42
pittididrocks: that's just an issue for intra-natty upgrades, I suppose? (but nice to hear anyway)16:42
didrockspitti: yeah, it's just intra natty16:42
didrocksin fact, doing that properly isn't easy with the gconf compiz backend16:43
didrocksstill experimenting to get the easiest solution…16:43
pittididrocks: temporary autostart .desktop?16:43
didrockspitti: will be started after compiz16:43
seb128not if you put it in the init section?16:44
didrocksa script can have race issue and putting that in compiz.desktop to wrap compiz isn't nice for crasher and such16:44
didrocksI try setting a new gconf default key16:44
seb128didrocks, change the exec line to "unity --reset; compiz"?16:44
didrocksseb128: hum? in the init phase, yeah, hackish but will work16:44
didrocks(won't be unity --reset as it starts it, but yeah)16:45
didrocksseb128: yeah, that can work16:45
didrockswrapping is definitively not the solution and setting a default neither16:45
didrockswill change the .desktop file then16:45
pittiaaanyway, OT for meeting again16:46
pitti(sorry)16:46
pittitremolux: do you want to bring up anything extra for software-center?16:46
tremoluxpitti: nope, not unless somebody has questions16:46
tremoluxthe new search help feature from mvo is cool  :)16:47
pitti@all: any questions or other meeting topics? otherwise we can call this done, and let didrocks and seb128 continue to discuss unity stuff :)16:47
seb128pitti, sort of meeting related but what did you make use gtk3 yet?16:47
pittiseb128: language-selector, aptdaemon, and apport16:47
Riddellpitti: Kubuntu update?16:48
pittithey currently look ugly, apparently we recently dropped the GTK3 theme handling or so16:48
pittiRiddell: argh, sorry; I'll fix the meeting template16:48
pittiRiddell: please go ahead16:48
Riddell * KDE SC 4.6 Beta 2 all in, working well16:48
Riddell * Kontact 4.6 Beta 2 in PPA only, more testing to be done before decision is made (testing plan has been made with Kolabsys)16:48
Riddell * New Digikam and Kipi plugins in16:48
Riddell * Bugfixes to dbusmenu-qt16:48
Riddell * New phonon-backend-vlc in, still more buggy than gstreamer, which is more buggy than xine16:48
Riddell * ARM compiles going well, mostly caught up for KDE packages.  Fixing ongoing for KOffice, KTorrent, kdenetwork16:48
pittiRiddell: oh, the video backends seem to change every week now?16:49
Riddellpitti: not it's still gstreamer16:49
Riddellby default16:49
Riddellwe just have other options available too16:49
Riddells/not/no/16:49
pittiindeed, http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing/natty_probs.html looks much better now, congrats for workign that out16:49
pittiRiddell: btw, I remembered that beta2 was supposed to fix interactions with upower for suspend/hibernate; does that work now, or does this still require debugging?16:49
Riddellhmm, good question, I still have hal installed, I need to check how it works with hal not installed16:50
RiddellI'll test and get back to you16:50
pittiRiddell: cool, thanks16:50
pittiI think we stopped debugging that on the ubuntu side as it was said to be fixed upstream16:51
pittiany other business?16:51
seb128gtk3? ;-)16:51
seb128sorry to bring that back, but upstream basically changed how gtk theming works16:51
seb128dropping the old gtk2 way16:51
seb128they use some css theming now16:51
seb128Cimi says it's not really possible to port murrine to that16:52
kenvandineugh16:52
seb128there is no way to get a pointer on the widgets from the theme anymore16:52
seb128so basically we will need a new theme16:52
pittiseb128: doesn't upstream gnome have a reasonable GTK3ish theme?16:52
seb128since we have almost no gtk3 rdepends yet I'm wondering if we should stay put for now16:52
seb128pitti, they do16:53
seb128but we don't want gtk2 applications to look ubuntu16:53
seb128with gtk3 ones being totally different16:53
didrockshow many gtk3 app do we have for now?16:54
seb128well since it seems we will not go for GNOME3 by default16:54
didrocksapport/jockey?16:54
pittiseb128: so does that mean you want me to revert to the pygtk2 versions? or want me to package a theme?16:54
seb128didrocks, I asked just before the kubuntu update16:54
seb128language-selector and apport basically16:54
pittiseb128: I just wonder why it still worked like a week ago16:54
pittididrocks: jockey is still in a branch, blocked on appindicator16:54
mterrydeja dup will be gtk3 :)16:54
pittiseb128: aptdaemon, too16:54
seb128pitti, it worked a week ago because the css theming landed in gtk .616:54
seb128last week16:54
pittiah16:54
seb128pitti, well as said before there is no theme to package16:55
seb128Cimi tried to port murrine16:55
seb128he says that's not possible16:55
seb128it will be easier to write a new theme16:55
ricotzthe official adwaita theme for gtk3 is available in gnome-themes-standard16:55
=== zyga-food is now known as zyga-waiting-for
seb128ricotz, thanks but we don't want to change our theme ;-)16:56
seb128we want something which is similar to what we have still16:56
seb128pitti, I would suggest we sort that at the sprint16:56
ricotzyeah, but this could be a base for creating the ubuntu theme16:56
seb128but until now maybe stop adding extra gtk3 use in natty16:56
seb128ricotz, thanks, I think Cimi knows how to do a theme, it's just that he can't get one similar to our gtk2 one16:57
seb128the new theming way is limited compared to what murrine is doing for some things16:57
pittiseb128: ok16:57
pittiseb128: although I guess any theme will look better than the current state16:57
seb128in any case we will need an ubuntu theme on gtk316:58
seb128would it be only for the GNOME3 ppa16:58
pittiseb128: we could even tweak it a bit to look more similar16:58
seb128pitti, I can see people who will not take "similar" as an option16:58
pittiheh, yes16:58
seb128like people who care about each pixel and will want every application in our default desktop to look right16:58
seb128not "similar" ;-)16:59
seb128anyway we will not sort that today16:59
seb128I just wanted to raise it as an issue16:59
pittithanks for bringing it up16:59
pittiat least I know the reason now16:59
pitti[TOPIC] AOB}16:59
pitti?16:59
seb128thanks everybody ;-)16:59
pittithanks everyone17:00
seb128oh btw we will have a gir transition coming17:00
seb128not sure if we want to do it this week17:00
pittiagain? *sigh*17:00
pittiokoay17:00
didrocksthanks :)17:00
kenvandineyuck17:00
seb128well debian renaming the girs17:00
seb128to 1.217:00
seb128so it's no code change17:00
kenvandinejust a rebuild17:00
seb128"just" the binaries to renam17:00
kenvandinewhew17:00
seb128rename17:01
seb128kenvandine, well, rather editing the control and .install and rules17:01
seb128debian decided to handle the 0.9.5 abi break by renaming the gir17:01
kenvandineyeah, but we won't have g-ir-scanner problems and stuff17:01
seb128to match the version17:01
seb128right17:01
pittiok, that should be relatively painless17:03
seb128right, just letting people know17:03
kenvandinepitti, appindicator with gtk3 is also blocked until ted gets back17:03
seb128so nobody is surprised by the upload and people know what to change17:03
kenvandinei did the build system work for gtk2/317:03
kenvandineand it is merged into the new package split and gdbus stuff17:03
pittiseb128, kenvandine: FYI, I'll be on holidays from Thursday on; I'll probably work a bit anyway next week, but irregularly17:03
seb128oh17:03
seb128same here17:04
seb128well I'm still pondering working friday17:04
pittiseb128, kenvandine: as I'll be on a train Friday evening, could either of you sit in teh release team meeting?17:04
kenvandinebut it is using apis from gtk that have changed and wants to look at17:04
mvohave fun during the vacation17:04
seb128since didrocks finish today17:04
seb128so I will handle the unity update17:04
seb128then I'm on vac until eoy as well17:04
pittiah, ok; well, I'll update the status tomorrow17:04
seb128didrocks finish = he's on holidays starting tonight until eoy17:04
pittiif everything else fails, I'll just send them the wiki page17:04
kenvandinei can do it17:04
kenvandinewait, i think i can do it :)17:05
seb128is anybody still there next week?17:05
seb128not sure if it's worth having a meeting17:05
chrisccoulsoni probably won't be17:05
seb128chrisccoulson, you are on holidays?17:05
seb128chrisccoulson, if you are please stop working, or at least hack on fun stuff out of IRC ;-)17:05
kenvandinepitti, i should be able to make the release meeting, can you get the wiki page updated?17:06
chrisccoulsonwell, not yet, but i will likely book it off. i've still got quite a few days to take off ;)17:06
chrisccoulsoni'll be hacking on the globalmenu-extension over christmas ;)17:06
kenvandinei should be here next week17:06
kenvandinebut out the week after christmas17:06
kenvandinebut i need to double check my days, might take some off next week :)17:08
seb128cyphermox, hey17:09
seb128cyphermox, I assigned you some evolution bugs seems you have stepped out for the updates and other backports17:09
seb128cyphermox, let me know if you don't have time for it though17:09
cdbsWhenever I start my system, Unity/Compiz doesn't start automatically. I have to manually start it each time by clicking the launcher on my desktop which I made to run the command 'compiz' . Ctrl+Alt+t doesn't work even when compiz isn't running. Is this an issue with the recent gnome-session upload?17:10
didrocksseb128: hum, Exec=foo ; bar is a fail, let me try with ""17:10
seb128didrocks, sh -c "..."17:11
looldobey: Yes; you can run "sn -T foo.dll"17:11
didrocksseb128: yeah, but we don't have nice autorespawn in that case?17:11
seb128didrocks, hum...17:12
looldobey: Sorry for the lag, was in calls in the last hours17:12
seb128can you hack the compiz code to do the reset? ;-)17:12
cdbsyes I can17:13
didrocksseb128: well, I'm leaving in less than one hour for holidays and will not having any internet connexion as I'm moving. So you know who will have to handle breakage :-)17:13
cdbsseb128: is it a known issue?17:13
seb128cdbs, I was speaking to didrocks, not sure about your issue17:13
didrocksseb128: more seriously, we can maybe scratch autorespawn now17:13
seb128cdbs, did you try to unity --reset?17:13
cdbsseb128: thrice17:13
didrocksseb128: and then, back after alpha217:13
seb128didrocks, well it seems unity --reset is not enough17:13
didrocksso sh -c "" for now17:14
seb128or at least didn't work after a session restart for cdbs17:14
didrocksseb128: hum? I saw 5 people fixed by that today17:14
pittikenvandine: thanks, will do17:14
seb128well cdbs said it fixed for him but it's back after a session restart17:14
didrockshum, weird17:14
cdbsdidrocks: the problem is, somehow when I start the system, compiz doesn't start up17:14
didrockscdbs: it doesn't start or it starts with no plugin?17:14
cdbsdidrocks: it doesn't start at all17:15
cyphermoxseb128, ok, looking into it now17:15
seb128didrocks, do what we can in the hour you have before leaving, we will handle from there17:15
seb128cyphermox, thanks17:15
cdbsdidrocks: wait, I am a bit doubtful about that, let me reproduce17:15
cdbsbrb17:15
didrocksseb128: ok, just rebuilding compiz with the script to reinitialize and testing there17:16
cdbsdidrocks, it isn't starting at all. However, everything is fine if, after a reboot, I log out and log back in properly. If I go to a virtual terminal when compiz isn't running, restart gdm, then still problem occurs.17:20
cyphermoxseb128, it's good, in fact I wanted to ask you or didrocks about backporting all those fixes from git or simply updating evo to git?17:20
cdbserr, I wrote that out in a confusing way17:20
cdbsthe only workaround for me is the launcher on the desktop thing17:20
seb128cyphermox, do whatever you find easier I guess, seems doing a git diff between the tarball tag and trunk would be easier17:21
seb128like git diff > backport17:21
seb128would avoid having to redo a tarball and upload it17:21
cyphermoxah, right, one big patch for the bunch17:21

didrocksif he's using the daily unity build, it's not compatible with natty nux17:58
seb128oh ok17:58
seb128ok, let's not focus on that17:58
seb128didrocks, why do you say ' sh -c "foo ; bar"' doesn't work?17:58
didrocksyeah, I'll just launch the script from main.cpp17:58
seb128seems the easiest way17:58
didrocksseb128: that's weird, I print in it, and can see that foo isn't launched…17:58
didrocksyeah17:58
seb128doesn't make sense to me17:58
seb128if you run the command manually does it work?17:59
didrockssame for me hence the "i'm going crazy"17:59
didrocksyeah, I tried that17:59
didrocksand it then reset my settings17:59
didrocksand print the debug17:59
seb128if you can hack the main.cpp do that18:00
seb128it will avoid the issues like respawn18:00

mterryseb128, I never had a fix for workspace switcher.  I had a fix for when you 'expose' an app18:47
mterryseb128, they didn't like an aspect of my fix and a dev is working on it18:47
mterryseb128, it's in their hands now  :)18:47

glatzormvo, have you seen my patch for maverick?20:14
mvoglatzor: I uploaded it , many thanks20:15
mvoglatzor: no problems with aptdaemon, just with the seach code :)20:15
glatzormvo, you are now using some advanced features of xapian in s-c?20:16
mvoglatzor: sort of, spelling suggestions, matchdecider and the like20:17
mvoglatzor: or what do you mean with "advanced" ?20:17
mvoglatzor: the new fastlist code is pretty neat, displays 30k items in a treeview in 0.2s20:17
glatzorthis is already advanced. :)20:18
mvoheh :) ok20:19
glatzorwhoa20:19
mvowhy?20:19
mvoI mean, why do you ask?20:19
glatzori wrote on a xapian based OPAC index in the last monthes20:19
mvocool20:19
mvoglatzor: is it available somewhere? or closed ?20:20
mvoglatzor: maybe you have some tips ?20:20
mvofor s-c ?20:20
glatzormvo, closed source but GPL20:20
glatzor:)20:20
mvolol20:21
glatzorI perform a second search with the corrected query string before showing it20:21
mvoglatzor: in case of mistypes?20:22
glatzorthis way I only show corrected queries which would improve the results (max attained)20:22
glatzorright20:22
mvoso far I only use it if there are no results, but it sounds like a good idea to always try it20:23
mvoseb128: unity rank bug is fixed in trunk20:24
glatzormvo, with xapian 1.2.3 you also get a corrected query if the original one returned results20:24
glatzormvo, a very nice feature are facets20:24
mvo\o/20:24
mvoglatzor: I have not explored those, what docs do you recommend (or what code)?20:24
glatzorI have only found the xapian doc so far. but i read the lucene in action and the solr book.20:25
glatzorthe former one explains a lot of modern search engine features20:26
glatzorfacets allow you to show the number of results in a category without having to perform a second sub query20:27
glatzormvo, the german compound words a very evil. The OPAC is for lawyers. so there are very exotic terms, e.g arbeitnehmererfindungsgesetz20:28
mvoglatzor: hm, the xapian docs look pretty sparse20:29
mvoglatzor: I will check the lucene book20:29
glatzormvo, but they are enough to transfer knowledge if you are familiar with the concepts20:29
glatzorthere is a second edition of lia targeting the 3.0 api20:30
mvothanks glatzor20:34
glatzormvo, I will ask my friend if I can send you the backends20:35

pittibryceh: I didn't see that one yet21:13
pittibryceh: I'll have a look later21:14
pittigood night everyone21:14
bcurtiswxgood night pitti21:23
brycehpitti, yeah I figure right now people are testing ubuntu via usb drives a lot, but jono recently posted a blog suggesting maxing out persistent storage on usb drives, and when you do that and try to install kernel drivers, it blows up21:27
brycehthere've been a bunch of bugs reported that fall into this category21:27
brycehpitti, I've set up a usb-creator bug requesting that it be more conservative at not allowing 100% of remaining space to be reserved for the persistent store, to leave some for system updates so new kernels can be installed21:28
brycehpitti, but I also think it would be good for jockey to be aware of this situation and pop up an error message when there's not enough space21:29
jasoncwarnermorning TheMuso: bryceh:22:03
TheMusoHey jasoncwarner.22:04
jasoncwarnerrobert_ancell might not be here for meeting22:04
TheMusojasoncwarner: Sorry to hear that you aren't 100%.22:04
jasoncwarnerhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Meeting/2010-12-1422:04
cyphermoxjasoncwarner, feeling better now?22:04
jasoncwarnerTheMuso: thanks...feeling a bit better now. hope to rest some more the rest of the day ....22:05
jasoncwarnercyphermox: getting there! slept more than usual, and that always helps :)22:05
cyphermoxjasoncwarner, +1 on that22:05
TheMusoHrm we do not have a RAOF.22:05
cyphermoxgf wanted us to get up at 5 am to take the train to work :/22:05
jasoncwarnerbryceh: TheMuso want to get started and see if RAOF joins us?22:06
TheMusoSure.22:06
jasoncwarnercyphermox: ugh!22:06
jasoncwarner[TOPIC] X Update22:06
jasoncwarnerbryceh: can you update on X (RAOF is on holiday)22:09
brycehoh hey22:09
brycehsorry was troubleshooting login problems with IS22:09
TheMusoah make sense22:09
bryceha few X items of note22:09
brycehwe've made xserver finally able to automatically configure -fglrx and -nvidia22:10
TheMusoNice.22:10
brycehso now if you have either driver installed you can boot with no xorg.conf22:10
brycehwe've been troubleshooting a bug with usb drives where if you set your persistent storage to maximum or near-max, it doesn't leave enough space on the drive to update initrd22:11
jasoncwarnerawesome.22:11
brycehso that means if you try installing -nvidia or other kernel drivers, it'll make the drive unbootable or fail in other weird ways22:11
brycehseems to be a usb-creator usability issue, or perhaps something jockey needs to detect better.22:11
brycehbeyond that I've been mostly doing testing of wayland and unity on various graphics cards, and doing bug work on X bugs reported against natty22:12
bryceh( http://www.bryceharrington.org/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals-natty-workqueue.svg )22:13
jasoncwarnerok...I'll grab you after this about something on wayland :)22:13
brycehwe're still finding it pretty effective to use this workqueue approach to stay on top of things22:13
jasoncwarnerok.. TheMuso, anything you wanted to comment on?22:13
TheMusoNot really, have hit a snag with unity and panel accessibiliity enablement, have asked DX for help, but haven't heard anything yet. I forgot to CC gary with my initial message, so will bounce him a copy of the email shortly.22:14
jasoncwarnerok22:15
jasoncwarneryeah, check with gary as well.22:15
brycehRAOF is off on vacation for the next few days btw and out of town so I don't anticipate him showing up online22:15
jasoncwarnerbryceh: thanks22:15
jasoncwarnerspeaking of that, bryceh TheMuso are you guys here next week or are you on holiday?22:15
* TheMuso is on holiday from tomorrow through to the end of the year.22:16
brycehjasoncwarner, I'm here, although I have +1 unrequested holiday day I need to schedule22:16
brycehalso, I think I'm coming down with a cold (both wife and son have been sick the last few days, I think I'm succumbing) so might be out a day or two this week22:17
* bryceh takes some echinecea22:17
jasoncwarnerbryceh: run!22:17
jasoncwarnerI think I got mine b/c son is in new daycare in new country22:17
jasoncwarnerstupid new germs22:18
brycehyep, daycare seems to be a germ breeding ground22:18
jasoncwarnerI'm not sure it makes sense to have a meeting next week, but I'll let everyone know. This might be last meeting of year.22:18
brycehI've got a few alpha-2/3 tasks I want to try to do while things are quiet next week, and also have a couple leftover tasks from my launchpad rotation I've been procrastinating that I'd like to finalize22:18
brycehand beyond that just continue holding down the bugs fort and keep the graph flat :-)22:19
brycehbtw, speaking of bugs and unity...22:19
jasoncwarner:)22:19
brycehis it worthwhile to report bugs I find, or should we wait until after the next code drop and/or next year?22:20
brycehI think most of the issues I've seen must already be known22:20
jasoncwarnerI would say check with didrocks, but he is without internet for a couple of days22:21
jasoncwarnercheck with seb, perhaps.22:21
brycehalright22:21
jasoncwarnerI would error on telling someone so we know about the bu rather than not reporting it only b/c we don't want to be surprised later22:21
jasoncwarnerOk, sounds like we are done22:22
jasoncwarneranything else before I call it?22:22
brycehnot from I22:22
jasoncwarner[END MEETING]22:23
TheMusonot from me22:23
jasoncwarnerOk... TheMuso enjoy your holiday. :)22:23
TheMusoThanks, going to see what I can do today first, i.e try and unsnag myself. :)22:23

hyperairhmm this is interesting22:50
hyperairgtk_label_set_text leaks memory22:50
hyperairwhoever knew?22:50
bcurtiswxhyperair, that a gtk3 string ?22:51
hyperairunless 6M of memory allocation is okay for that function..22:51
hyperairbcurtiswx: no, this is maverick, with valgrind running on indicator-applet22:51
bcurtiswxok22:51
bcurtiswxwho runs the GNOME3 PPA other than me ? rodrigo_ i know of..but who else?22:52
seb128bcurtiswx, nobody22:53
seb128or maybe robert_ancell22:53
* robert_ancell hides22:53
hyperairanother one seems to be dbus_g_proxy_end_call, allocating 37M worth of memory22:53
bcurtiswxrobert_ancell, do you run the GNOME3 PPA ?22:53
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, yes, in a VM22:53
hyperairor maybe dbusmenu isn't freeing data it's supposed to be22:53
seb128hey robert_ancell ;-)22:53
robert_ancellseb128, hello22:53
bcurtiswxrobert_ancell, can you bzr get/branch lp:~ubuntu-desktop/folks/ubuntu22:54
bcurtiswxand hi :D22:54
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, ok, got it22:55
seb128robert_ancell, did you guys have your meeting yet?22:56
bcurtiswxoh, am i interrupting ?22:56
robert_ancellseb128, I had to head out, and jasoncwarner was sick, so not sure22:56
robert_ancellTheMuso, was there a meeting?  Also RAOF seems to be away22:57
TheMusorobert_ancell: Yeah rather short, everything that was talked about is on the notes page.22:57
seb128ok22:58
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, the empathy issue is due to a GTK api changes - the branch I made has the patches updated to work with the new GTK22:58
robert_ancellTheMuso, cheers22:58
seb128robert_ancell, what's new in your side of the ubuntu world? ;-)22:59
seb128is there anything you work on that I should know about22:59
robert_ancellseb128, gdm is pissing me off as normal :)22:59
seb128or anything I should work on22:59
bcurtiswxrobert_ancell, you updated all the empathy patches for the new GTK ?22:59
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, yes22:59
* bcurtiswx hugs robert_ancell22:59
bcurtiswxi'll use your branch then23:00
seb128debian ships the new empathy in experimental23:00
seb128robert_ancell, in case you didn't notice debian started packaging GNOME323:00
robert_ancellseb128, just finishing off updating GNOME, not a lot more to do there.  Will be looking at Unity more over the next two weeks23:00
bcurtiswxseb128, yes and robert_ancell has updated all the patches to make it work with the new gtk23:00
seb128you can probably see a bit of that from the version page23:00
robert_ancellseb128, are they using our packages?  Please tell me they are23:00
seb128robert_ancell, let's say they mostly do so far because mterry and I pushed our patches and work23:01
seb128not sure they would be proactive at grabbing what we did otherwise23:01
robert_ancellseb128, into git/svn?23:01
seb128either into their svn or in the bts23:01
bcurtiswxrobert_ancell, when i bzr get i end up sitting in a state of purgatory with nothing happening.  do you see this too ?23:03
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, on all branches?  The folks branch seemed to bzr pull fine just before for me23:03
bcurtiswxyeah, seems all branches.23:04
bcurtiswxbut i think its due to something with my keys, as i usually do the get and a window comes up trying to grab my master key23:05
bcurtiswxbut it doesn't right now23:05
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, hmm, that sounds like some sort of gnome-keyring/ssh-agent problem.  I don't have that running, so the password prompt is just at the command line23:06
bcurtiswxrobert_ancell, is there a way I can disable gnome-keyring temporarily ?23:07
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, sorry, don't know23:09
bcurtiswxyeah, i can confirm its something with my gnome-keyring.. i sudo bzr get and it works as expected (fails, but works)23:14
bcurtiswxwhats the GUI called that comes up asking for authentication ?23:17
robert_ancellRiddell, pitti, awake anyone?23:18
seb128robert_ancell, what do you need?23:20
seb128who is "anyone"?23:20
robert_ancellseb128, people who can get stuff out of the NEW queue...23:22
seb128robert_ancell, I can23:22
seb128but seems you don't want to talk to me :p23:22
robert_ancellseb128, oh really, you didn't want to tell me that :)23:22
seb128lol23:22
seb128it's not new ;-)23:22
seb128I'm archive admin since between you joined I think23:23
seb128before23:23
seb128I usually doing desktop syncs and NEWing for transitions ;-)23:23
robert_ancellI just uploaded a lightdm package.  It's been rejected twice by pitti and Riddell for different missing copyright information.  I'm hoping third time lucky :)23:23
seb128lol23:24
robert_ancell(this means you'll probably find a different copyright I've missed)23:24
seb128let's see if you get a third one ;-)23:24
bcurtiswxhmm23:26
robert_ancellseb128, oh, I notice you were talking to ricotz about the GNOME3 PPA access, what did you decide.  I've also been thinking about this.  Perhaps we should make a gnome3-team on LP so we can get more people to upload to it23:28
seb128robert_ancell, I was thinking about that as well23:28
seb128I didn't think that the team was giving upload rights as well when we started23:28
robert_ancellseb128, shall we do it?  I can set that up today, and upload everything to it23:28
seb128robert_ancell, btw can you try to review merge requests on the ppa every now and then?23:29
robert_ancellseb128, do we have some, I haven't seen any23:29
seb128we don't get notified about those so it's not trivial to track23:29
robert_ancelloh, I had no idea.  I'll look at those23:29
seb128robert_ancell, like you redid gnome-control-center when rodrigo had it done for over a week waiting for sponsoring23:29
seb128https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/+activereviews23:29
seb128robert_ancell, ^ url to wathc23:30
seb128watch23:30
robert_ancellseb128, ok.  Do those guys use the versions page?  If they have a bug open I'll see that too (note you have to add the desktop-upgrade tag manually as LP changed API)23:31
seb128robert_ancell, "those guys"23:32
seb128?23:32
seb128robert_ancell, no, it's just people who don't have upload rights23:32
seb128like rodrigo23:32
robert_ancelland ricotz23:32
seb128every update rodrigo does need to be reviewed and merged and uploaded23:32
seb128right, just mentioning rodrigo because he did a lot of updates23:32
seb128ricotz started today23:33
micahgrobert_ancell: BTW, you can copy the current GNOME3 PPA packages to the new PPA if that's the direction you're going23:33
robert_ancellseb128, is that his choice?  In terms of the GNOME3 PPA I'd say just upload them23:33
robert_ancellmicahg, yes, I'll migrate them all over, then we can close the old PPA23:33
seb128robert_ancell, no, ubuntu-desktop membership gives upload rights to the ubuntu desktop set23:34
seb128robert_ancell, we had to unsubscribe rodrigo23:35
seb128he still does mistake and was not ready to get upload right to proper ubuntu23:35
seb128there was a discussion on ubuntu-desktop list a month ago23:35
robert_ancellseb128, oh, that's right.  Perhaps we should push all the GNOME3 branches to the gnome3-team as well so he can commit to thiose23:36
seb128robert_ancell, well, we started like this because I think review is the easiest way for rodrigo to get comments on his work23:39
seb128so the best way to get real commit and upload rights23:39
seb128robert_ancell, doing merges and uploads is not so much work23:39
seb128and we win real uploaders after some time23:39
robert_ancellsure, it's just they get easily missed.23:39
seb128for you :p23:39
robert_ancellI don't have people pinging me on IRC during my day :)23:40
seb128rodrigo is in my tz so he pings me until I do sponsor things :p23:40
robert_ancellI'll see if I can get versions to show the merge requests23:40
bcurtiswxi can surely ping you more on IRC robert_ancell :)23:40
robert_ancellbcurtiswx, please do!23:40
bcurtiswxi think that just made seb128 give a sigh of relief :P23:40
robert_ancellwhen I'm doing the patch pilot days, there's no-one bugging me!23:41
bcurtiswxjust lemme know when you don't want my annoyingness and i'll leave ya along ;)23:41
bcurtiswxalone*23:41
seb128robert_ancell, there is not a lot of IRC pings for patch pilots in our tz either23:43
seb128the work is mainly on the queue23:43
bcurtiswxwhat is a patch pilot ?23:43
seb128robert_ancell, should be easy to copy the sponsoring queue code to list those23:43
seb128bcurtiswx, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/CodeReviews23:44
seb128robert_ancell, btw do you take any end of year break?23:45
seb128robert_ancell, didrocks started his holidays today, ted is on holiday, pitti starts thursday23:46
seb128robert_ancell, I'm start at the end of the week23:46
seb128so starting next week it should be really quiet around23:46
seb128just to let you know23:46
bcurtiswxWell happy holidays to all, before you all leave23:46
robert_ancellI'm just taking the time between Christmas and New Years23:47
seb128bcurtiswx, to you as well if you have some time off ;-)23:47
seb128robert_ancell, ok23:47
seb128robert_ancell, btw did you read the meeting page yet?23:47
seb128robert_ancell, sorry to dump questions and infos on you :p23:48
seb128using the time we are both online to sync ;-)23:48
robert_ancellseb128, I'm halfway through it - I'm doing about 5 things at once at the moment :)23:48
seb128hehe23:48
seb128robert_ancell, there is a debian gir transition to do23:48
seb128no build issues but renaming all the girs23:48
robert_ancellseb128, the 1.2 one.  groan23:48
seb128do you want to do it before the end of year or after?23:49
robert_ancellyeah, I can do that23:49
ari-tczewrobert_ancell: I'm going to prepare a 4 merges to sponsor by you :) it will be done in a few day23:49
ari-tczewdays23:49
robert_ancellari-tczew, ok, busy next week and a half23:50
seb128robert_ancell, I was not asking if you want to do23:51
seb128or rather not asking you to do the transition23:51
seb128just whether you had a preference on when23:51
seb128robert_ancell, well in any case it's a matter of merging the new gobject-introspection on debian23:52
seb128then we can start doing changes23:52
seb128or syncing on debian the one they renamed we have in sync23:52
seb128start on it if you want23:52
seb128tomorrow I patch pilot but I will do work on that on thursday23:52
robert_ancellmy preference is as early as possible, before we really need things to be stable23:53
seb128if you want to start today feel free23:53
seb128or tomorrow23:53
seb128I will start and do what I can on thursday othewise23:53
seb128I think I will be busy with unity on friday23:53
seb128didrocks is off and I need to take over the weekly update23:53
seb128the transition should be pretty trivial since there is no abi change, just binaries to rename23:54
robert_ancellright - are there any major unity updates before the new year?23:54
seb128weekly release23:54
robert_ancelland lots of dependencies to update23:54
seb128well not lot, the unity stack23:54
seb128unity23:54
seb128nux23:54
robert_ancelldo they have a full team working on it?  Or just a few people not on holiday23:54
seb128the unity team is mostly working23:55
seb128ted is on holidays23:55
seb128so the indicator stack is on hold23:55
robert_ancellbeing whipped hard then.  Merry Christmas!23:55
seb128;-)23:55
seb128the indicator stack is stucked, they didn't see appmenu was needed to be ported to gdbus at the same time as other things23:56
seb128ted will resume on that after the holidays23:56
robert_ancellI has to be ported?23:56
seb128everything needs to be ported in once23:56
robert_ancelllinking issues?23:56
seb128no, similar to the gtk2 and gtk3 issue23:57
robert_ancellyeah23:57
seb128if some indicators load the old abi and some the new one things are unhappy23:57
seb128so appindicator has been ported23:57
seb128but not appmenu23:57
seb128which means things with a menu and an indicator are unhappy23:57
seb128the process get both versions loaded and it crashes23:58
seb128robert_ancell, btw speaking of which gtk3 theming is a fail23:59
seb128CImi thinks it's not possible to port murrine23:59
seb128gtk3 doesn't give him a pointer to the widgets23:59
robert_ancellseb128, impossible or just really hard?23:59
seb128he basically needs to write a new theme23:59
robert_ancellow23:59
