[14:28] <coz_> hey all
[15:20] <thorwil> hi doctormo! i have one development branch and a packaging branch on lp. for the first rev of the packaging branch, the reference to the devel branch is clear.
[15:20] <thorwil> but now, several devel revs later, easiest would be to copy the files i need to the packaging branch. but is there a way to associate the packaging rev with a devel rev, then?
[15:28] <doctormo> thorwil: Hey
[15:29] <doctormo> thorwil: I don't understand, could you explain some more about what you mean?
[15:29] <thorwil> doctormo: oh, and happy new year! :)
[15:29] <doctormo> thorwil: Prosit Neujahr
[15:30] <thorwil> heh, excellent!
[15:30] <thorwil> doctormo: see https://launchpad.net/backtestground
[15:30] <thorwil> doctormo: i created a packaging branch and continued development in trunk
[15:31] <thorwil> doctormo: for the 2nd release (1st wasn't announced due to an error in it), i want to update the relevant files in packaging
[15:32] <doctormo> Interesting, is this similar to my genetic background wallpaper packaging?
[15:32] <thorwil> doctormo: now i wonder if there's a way to let LP know that the changes in packaging come from a specfic trunk revision
[15:32] <thorwil> doctormo: not at all
[15:33] <thorwil> doctormo: just scripts for cropping/resizing images to wallpaper resolutions, for making screenshots with transparent desktop
[15:35] <thorwil> and as addition a script that expects a screenshot with transparent desktop to crop/resize it, repeating parts of any panel found to fill gaps
[15:36] <doctormo> thorwil: Interesting set of scripts, so, do you need me to review?
[15:38] <thorwil> doctormo: thanks, i don't need a review, but wouldn't mind feedback :)
[15:38] <doctormo> the bin/__init__.py is redundant,
[15:39] <doctormo> The commands are a bit cryptic, and sizes might clobber some other package by mistake.
[15:39] <thorwil> ah right, just there for local convenience, shouldn't have checked that in
[15:40] <thorwil> doctormo: unique but not cryptic names are hard to come up with
[15:40] <doctormo> YHAFK
[15:41] <thorwil> huh?
[15:41] <coz_> mm  "yhafk"  seems both unique and cryptic  :)
[15:42] <doctormo> So perhaps 'background-crop' 'background-extract' and 'background-sizes'
[15:42] <doctormo> It's an old one 'YHAFK' == You have a full keyboard.
[15:42] <thorwil> heh
[15:42] <coz_> :)
[15:44] <doctormo> You can remove the sodipodi and inkscape namespaces from your svg template, they're not required.
[15:44] <doctormo> 'as such' unless you want to take advantage of some editability in inkscape.
[15:45] <thorwil> i vaguely recall that layers are not handled right in plain svg
[15:46] <doctormo> thorwil: yep, layers are just groups, but you can keep that and not have the metadata, defs or sodipodi window frame guff.
[15:49]  * thorwil writes todo
[15:50] <doctormo> thorwil: In the svg generation, try using printf syntax like so: http://pastebin.ca/2037733
[15:55] <thorwil> but of course! that really was a hack
[16:01] <doctormo> Well I could claim printf is too since xml.minidom should be used instead ;-)
[16:05] <thorwil> heh, sometimes treating xml as just text does make things simpler. at least if you start out having never messed with a structured xml representation
[17:30]  * thorwil pushes cleaned up svg_generator.py
[18:30] <thorwil> doctormo: oh, and thanks! :)
