apacheloggerScottK: is it just me or is the contacts stuff in plasma-netbook broken in natty?02:03
ScottKDunno.  Didn't try it.02:03
apacheloggerthe contacts runner for that matter also seems to yield no search results02:03
* apachelogger smells incompability02:03
ScottKDoes seem to be some variation of broken02:06
apacheloggerfortunately enough it is very debugable and throws loads of debug output02:07
apacheloggernot02:07
apachelogger-.-02:08
* apachelogger wants to get rid of install-something-to-get-better-experience notifications for natty02:08
apacheloggerannoying^302:08
ScottKI wonder if it's only meant to work with kdepim 4.6?02:08
ScottKGotta go.02:09
apacheloggerthere surely is something fishy with the combination of akonadi and kdepimlibs02:09
apacheloggeraccording to kdepimlibs debug output the addressbook file gets loaded and everything02:10
apacheloggerso either the plasma side of things messes up or there is an incompability between kdepimlibs and akonadi and plasma happens to expose it02:10
apacheloggeralso solid apparently has threading problems02:10
apacheloggeror maybe it is plasma that does bogus threading02:11
apachelogger...02:11
apacheloggertries to move parented objects to another thread02:11
apacheloggerscary amount of debug output that generates02:11
apacheloggeroh wellz02:11
apacheloggerbed time02:11
apacheloggeroh02:13
apacheloggerand clicking a bookmark while rekonq is open does not give rekonq focus02:13

jjesseDarkwingDuck you there?02:37
jjesseDarkwingDuck just curious as to what things need updating/etc in nattty02:38
jjessehow many paid canonical employees work on kuubuntu?02:46
c2tarunthere is a report of kdenetwork package failed to build from source on this link http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ftbfs/ but the same version is in repository. How?03:24
JontheEchidnathe current version in the archive seems to have failed too03:36
DarkwingDuckjjesse: one one05:33
DarkwingDuck*only one.05:33
DarkwingDuckjjesse: AFAIK whats on the ToDo05:33
DarkwingDuckjjesse: as far as docs go.05:33
DarkwingDuckI finally got this week out of the way.05:34
DarkwingDuckjjesse: I'll be back in a couple hours.05:35
DarkwingDuckjjesse: I dont' know if you are awake at the moment but, if I don't catch you today I'll be on tomorrow evening.05:35
c2tarunJontheEchidna: If the current version in archive also failed, than how is it in archive? I mean how can a package be uploaded in archive when it is failed?05:37
ScottKapachelogger: We should discuss it with notmart in #plasma-netbook.06:19

eMyllerweird09:19
eMyllerany ideas why gtk appearance settings doesn't take effect anymore?09:19
eMylleror is it just me? [hope so]09:19
eMyllernvm, just like i suspected..09:27
eMyllersomehow, that sh that comes in .kde/env isn't shipped anymore...09:27
eMyllerhad to create it manually.09:27
eMyllergonna test09:27
eMyllerif anyone else needs the info: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3115432.009:51
eMyller:)09:51
markeyapachelogger: I have the feeling I still have this Render graphics backend enabled, after I had installed you KCM once. getting all sorts of weird rendering bugs10:25
markeyhow to disable that manually?10:25
markeys/you/your10:25
markeyat least with Intel Graphics, Render is shit10:25
markeyonly makes things worse10:25
eMyllerbtw, what happened to intel gfx support?10:29
markeyI dunno10:29
eMyllerit's working like $*%& since 4.6 :(10:29
markeybut with Core i7, where the GPU is integrated in the CPU, it works pretty well now with KWin from KDE 4.610:29
markeyfast enough10:29
markeyRender does not improve anything10:30
eMyllerit's fast here too; but the rendering is too lazy10:30
markeyin fact I wonder what the point of it is, if it's half broken10:30
eMylleri have to move things to get screen updates lol10:30
markeyyeah10:30
markeywhat the heck10:30
markeyI mean...10:30
mgraesslindon't use raster!10:30
markeywait10:30
markeystop10:31
markeyI meant *Raster*10:31
markeyargs10:31
markeytypo!10:31
markeyRaster is totally borked and useless10:31
eMyllermarkey: but that's with opengl only; xrender works fine with a few effects10:31
markeyOpenGL works fine with latest Intel GMA10:31
markeyanyway, I don't see the point of Raster10:32
mgraesslineMyller: correction: that's only with OpenGL by Intel and graphicssystem Raster10:32
markeyit breaks all sorts of things10:32
eMyllermgraesslin: did anything change beyond kde from scs 4.5 to 4.6?10:32
markeymgraesslin: btw, too bad that you had to refuse the offer, but it seems you already have a really cool job10:32
eMyllerit worked perfectly in 4.5 times10:32
mgraesslinmarkey: I did not refuse, I just said that I need to more time to see where nokia is heading10:33
markeywith Raster, menus don't draw properly, and such things10:33
markeymgraesslin: oooh. Steven told it a bit differently10:33
markeymaybe I misunderstood10:33
markeyor he did10:33
markeyanyway, I personally really recommend accepting such an offer, or at least coming for an interview10:34
markeythen they can tell you more10:34
mgraesslin"Now I need some more time to let the dust settle and to see the path Nokia is taking and whether I would still fit into it. Due to my current contract this means that the earliest possible time point where I can switch jobs is July."10:34
markeyah ok10:35
mgraesslinI really wouldn't switch jobs if I don't know if they start to lay off people10:35
mgraesslinas that would hit me first - young, no family, fresh in company...10:35
markeyat any rate: to be honest, getting into that team is the chance of a lifetime. if Nokia guys want to get in it, they have to endure a hardcore "Assessment"10:35
markeyit's an elite team10:35
markeybasically, you can only get a job with a recommendation10:36
mgraesslinthere's currently just too little information around to get an unbiased view on things10:37
mgraesslinI would never work for MS - neither direct nor indirect10:37
mgraesslinso if Qt development gets stalled, I would have to switch jobs again10:38
markeythat is exactly why my boss now changed his strategy, he tries to call potential employees on the phone, and then tries to explain a bit what we are doing10:38
markeywhich is difficult, because it's secret10:38
markeyso that is also hard for him10:38
mgraesslinyeah I can understand10:38
mgraesslinand getting an NDA before talking about a job offer...10:38
markeyno, he would tell you without NDA10:38
markeyat least outlining some things10:39
markeyif you actually interview, you have to sign the NDA10:39
markeyhiring is really complicated due to all of these factors :)10:40
mgraesslinyeah sounds so :-)10:41
eMyllergtg10:42
apacheloggermarkey: rm ~/.kde/env/qt-graphicssystem.sh10:45
markeyapachelogger: thx!10:45
apacheloggermarkey: btw, it is not raster that is broken, it is applications doing shit10:46
markeyah10:47
markeywell10:47
markeyor libraries10:47
markeyif menus are not painted correctly...10:47
apacheloggeryeah, whatever has paintaing code :D10:47
markeyit can hardly be the app's fault10:47
markeyit's Oxygen, I guess10:47
* apachelogger notes that menu paintaing problems sounds more like X11 *sing*10:48
markeynah10:48
markeyit always worked fine10:48
markeyuntil I installed you KCM10:48
markeythat borked it all :p10:48
apacheloggermgraesslin: column tiling on 2 screens behaves a bit oddly10:48
markeya Bork-KCM10:48
mgraesslinwith Intel we have heard problems about menus not working since around 4.510:48
apacheloggermarkey: meanwhile you upgraded to KDE 4.6...10:49
mgraesslinthat means since about Mesa 7.810:49
markeyat any rate, I blame apachelogger 10:49
markeythat works well10:49
apachelogger*nod*10:49
mgraesslinapachelogger: you mean quick tiling?10:49
apacheloggermgraesslin: the window placement tiling thing10:50
ejatapachelogger:  ubuntuone-client-kde ? 10:50
apacheloggerin the advanced settings10:50
mgraesslinah yes I think it does not support multi screen10:50
apacheloggerejat: I have a partnership with dropbox, they pay me to not do it10:51
apacheloggermgraesslin: works surprisingly well then :D10:51
apacheloggerjust insists on moving windows to the second screen10:51
ejatouch .. 10:52
jussiyippee... my kde is doing strange things11:01
jussiAll the menu's have started to appear from the top of the screen down - instead of out of the plasma panel. its rather funny11:01
jussianyone else got similar things with 4.6 from the PPA?11:02
markeyjussi: http://i.imgur.com/S0BtP.jpg11:13

mgraesslinlol11:13
markeyhehe11:13
ejatlol11:14
apacheloggerScottK: I think kdepimlibs is defunct11:35
apacheloggerkrunner(5762) ContactsRunner::match: preferredEmail is empty!!!!!!!!!11:35
apacheloggerkrunner(5762) ContactsRunner::match: ()11:35
apacheloggerthe last line should regardless of preferred email list at least one11:35
apacheloggeryet it is empty11:36
apacheloggeroh oh oh11:37
apacheloggeractually there is also an old addressee name shown11:37
apacheloggervery interesting11:37
apacheloggerScottK: at any rate there is a dependency problem, the contacts feature depends on plasma-runners-addons to work it would appear, yet that is not part of the seed11:38
apacheloggeralso I do not think seeding it woudl be a good idea as it includes a billion billion things11:38
apacheloggermaybe we should split the contacts thing out and seed it + turn it off by default in krunner (thus preventing akonadi startup at login)11:39
apacheloggeron the desktop that is, on the netbook the sal should still start the runner I presume :D11:39
apacheloggerhm11:46
apacheloggerpossibly my setup is busted ^^11:46
jussifor anyone interested in what my issue looks like: http://wstaw.org/m/2011/02/20/plasma-desktopDU2357.jpg11:47
* apachelogger blames lancelot11:48
apachelogger:O11:49
apacheloggerWTF11:49
apacheloggeranyone with a somewhat clean setup around?11:49
apacheloggerideally natty11:49
mgraesslinjussi: try changing the size of the panel11:50
apacheloggermgraesslin: could you check if your default address book kresource is an akonadi one11:52
mgraesslinapachelogger: is a vcard resource here11:53
apacheloggerthx11:53
apacheloggerthis is all wrong11:53
mgraesslinbut I have two resources: an Adress Book and personal contacts11:53
mgraesslinpersonal contacts is completely empty11:54
apacheloggeryeah11:54
apacheloggerthere is something fckd big time11:54
apacheloggerfor one I would say that the kresource should be an akonadi agent11:54
apacheloggerfor another the current setup cannot work at all, as the default akonadi addressbook agent is a directory based one targetting .local/share/contacts whereas the kresource wants .kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf11:55
apacheloggerno krake when you need him11:55
mgraesslinyou will be shipping kontact 4.4 in natty?11:56
* apachelogger shall lure him with beer to some cafe and then flood him with verbose apachelogger debug messages about broken kdepim stuff ^^11:56
apacheloggermgraesslin: yes11:56
* mgraesslin is also still on 4.411:56
apacheloggernot that the issue would be related to that though :)11:56
apacheloggerthat is pure kdepimlibs mess11:56
mgraesslinon my laptop I have a master build which refuses to start at all11:56
apacheloggerkdepim master likes to do that ^^ :D11:57
apachelogger:S11:57
* apachelogger pokes his akonadi a bit11:57
apacheloggergreat11:59
apacheloggerfor me akonadi actually refuses to write anything to .local/share/contacts11:59
mgraesslinmine is in .kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf12:00
apacheloggermgraesslin: akonadi?12:00
mgraesslinthe address book12:01
apacheloggermgraesslin: well, which setup :D12:01
apacheloggeronly the kresources or akonadi too?12:01
mgraesslinerm you ask questions12:01
apacheloggernot my fault that their architecture is all fiddly ;)12:01
mgraesslinthat's also the one linked in the KCM12:02
apacheloggerhm12:02
apacheloggermgraesslin: could you make a screenshot please :)12:02
* apachelogger has a broken something as kres migrator always wants to migrate at every kdepimlibs app startup \o/12:03
apacheloggerI have a million million akonadi resources :D12:03
mgraesslinapachelogger: http://simplest-image-hosting.net/jpg-0-plasma-desktopfl270212:03
mgraesslinand akonadi: http://simplest-image-hosting.net/jpg-0-plasma-desktopjn270212:04
apacheloggerright, I have roughly the same 12:04
apacheloggermgraesslin: supposedly personal contacts is a directory resource and address book a file resource?12:05
jussimgraesslin: that worked! thanks!12:05
mgraesslinapachelogger: yes exactly12:05
apacheloggerok, thanks12:07
mgraesslinapachelogger: if you provide a package for kwin-gles it would also be available to desktop users, right?12:08
apacheloggermy best guess: akonadi by default will want the contacts thing, then kres-migrator comes along and creates the file-based address book to bridge kresources to akonadi on storage level12:09
apacheloggermgraesslin: yes12:09
apachelogger*if*12:09
* apachelogger needs to fiddle about with workspace master :S12:09
mgraesslinwould be very intersting to get some real world usage before 4.7 as it is basically a new compositor12:10
apachelogger*nod*12:10
mgraesslinespecially as I want to remove the possibility to turn Compositing off :-P12:10
apacheloggerScottK: so, it is some kdepimlibs/akonadi problem, where kde has a file based sources by default and akonadi a directory based one12:11
apacheloggerneed to talk to my local kdepim dev about that12:11
apacheloggermgraesslin: lolwut?12:12
* apachelogger wonders why plasma-netbook says that it wants to use a "system" qt graphics system12:13
apacheloggerit worx12:16

apacheloggerNightrose: doing a prezi clone in a qgraphicsscene should be pretty easy ^^12:21
apacheloggerthough something GLy could give better performance I suppose12:22
Nightroseapachelogger: already found one - needs more work though - check my twitter and so on12:22
c2tarunthere are some packages on this link https://merges.ubuntu.com/universe.html which dont have any problem in merging, still they are there. Why are they not merged automatically?12:26
apacheloggerNightrose: that is not Qt though12:26
Nightroseapachelogger: jep - still pretty good already12:27
apacheloggerc2tarun: there is no such concept as automerges12:27
Nightrosejust needs a few more features and polish12:27
apacheloggerc2tarun: way too dangerous12:27
Nightroseapachelogger: there is also a gsoc idea for that for calligra12:27
Nightrosei totally want someone to do that (hint hint :P)12:27
apacheloggerc2tarun: whenever there is need for a merge there is also need to reevaluate the whole situation of carrying a delta to debian at all and what not12:28
apacheloggerNightrose: not gonna do calligra :P12:28
c2tarunapachelogger: and what if there is no delta?12:28
apacheloggerNightrose: maybe shadeslayer wants to12:28
Nightroseapachelogger: pffft ;-)12:28
Nightroseshadeslayer: ^  12:28
apacheloggerc2tarun: like for example?12:28
apacheloggershadeslayer: also go fix plasma-netbook bookmarks && rekonq focus problem12:29
* Nightrose goes and fixes her thesis instead12:29
c2tarunapachelogger: by deltas I mean conflicts. There are many in which there are no conflicts like sbuild12:29
apacheloggerdelta != conflicts12:30
apacheloggerthe fact that the merge does not conflict does not say anythign about the need of the delta12:30
apacheloggeror whether there really is no conflict12:30
c2tarunapachelogger: what are deltas exactly?12:30
apacheloggerthe difference12:31
c2tarundiff b/w what?12:31
apacheloggerubuntu and debian12:31
apacheloggerit easily can happen that we have a patch and debian has a patch and they do the same but apply at different parts of the source12:31
apacheloggerthen there is no buildtime conflict12:31
apacheloggerbut at runtime you get funny results12:31
c2tarunapachelogger: can you help me please in looking on sbuild package. I am not getting exactly what are you trying to explain.12:33

apacheloggerc2tarun: https://merges.ubuntu.com/s/sbuild/sbuild_0.60.8-1ubuntu2.patch12:36
apacheloggerthat is the different from us to debian12:36
apacheloggernow while there are no merge conflicts it might be that our changes to e.g. lib/Sbuild/ResolverBase.pm are no longer necessary12:37
c2tarunapachelogger: it is the patch that was applied to earlier version of debian to convert it to ubuntu? am i right?12:37
apacheloggerc2tarun: suppose so, kompare does not want me to see that information12:37
apacheloggershitty software tends to get in my way12:38
apacheloggerc2tarun: yes, that is the diff between the original base of ubuntu2 and ubuntu2 (i.e. the current sbuild package)12:38
apacheloggerhttps://merges.ubuntu.com/s/sbuild/sbuild_0.60.9-1ubuntu1.patch12:39
apacheloggerthat is the automerge diff12:39
apacheloggeri.e. what needs to be applied to the most recent debian version to reach the re-merged ubuntu version12:40
apacheloggerhere you need to check that a) nothing was merged incorrectly b) things that are no longer necessary get dropped c) that this new diff does not introduce runtime problems12:41
apacheloggerlike this change in sbuild-createchroot12:41
apacheloggermaybe in an act of madness someone duplicated the installation of debfoster somewhere (in the debian version of the package) essentially rendering our current diff for sbuild-createchroot useless12:42

ari-tczewnot me as kubuntu developer13:21
shadeslayerwell ... it *does* look it's been abandoned13:21
* apachelogger sees no questions13:22
apacheloggerdoes it have to do with butterflies?13:22

shadeslayeryikes13:22
ari-tczewwe have still a winter!13:22
shadeslayerari-tczew: looks good to be kicked out of the archive13:25
ari-tczewshadeslayer: yes13:25
c2tarunwhen I am trying to apply the patch I am getting this message "Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] n"13:26
ari-tczewc2tarun: patch was applied in the past, I guess13:27
c2tarunari-tczew: but apachelogger told that this patch was automatically generated for merge. This is the patch b/w the previous two versions. How can it be applied?13:28
shadeslayerwhy can't i target the bug to natty alpha 313:28
shadeslayerweird13:28
ari-tczewc2tarun: what are you doing right now?13:29
c2tarunari-tczew: waiting for reply13:29
c2tarunari-tczew: I am trying to merge sbuild.13:30
ari-tczewc2tarun: I'm asking what are you patching?13:30
ari-tczewc2tarun: do you use patches created by MoM?13:30
c2tarunari-tczew: yup13:30
ari-tczewc2tarun: it;s wrong13:31
ari-tczewc2tarun: MoM creates patches only for looking, not for patching.13:31
c2tarunari-tczew: than what should I do for merging the packages which dont have any conflicts?13:31
ari-tczewc2tarun: let me look into sbuild case13:32
c2tarunari-tczew: ok, I'll wait :)13:32
shadeslayerkubotu: weather Gurgaon, India13:35
ari-tczewc2tarun: in sbuild case, you have to only get into grabbed sbuild-0.60.9 directory and run 'dch -e' completing information13:35
ari-tczewso yes, this one is pretty easy to do13:36
c2tarunari-tczew: is there any other package with no conflict, but some work to do. I just want to learn how to merge packages with no conflict13:36
shadeslayerapachelogger: kubotu is broken, he doesn't have the weather plugin13:36
shadeslayerkthxbai13:37
ari-tczewc2tarun: "learn how to merge packages with no conflict" - but what do you want to learn if MoM creates package for you?13:37
ari-tczewif you want to learn more about merging, you have to touch more complex packages13:38
c2tarunari-tczew: actually it was written in report to compare the patches and look for unexpected chagnes. I didn't understand what are unexpected changes? and can you name some complex packages?13:38
ari-tczewc2tarun: e.g. blank line added at the end of d/changelog is unexpected change.13:40
ari-tczewit has been added by MoM and it's a bug13:40
ari-tczewsometimes debuild will do some changes in .po files and these are not expected changes as well13:41
c2tarunari-tczew: I guess po files are for multiple language support? What changes in them can be any unexpected change? I mean it only contains the translations13:42
ari-tczewc2tarun: I can't explain in details why these changes occur, but if you didn't on .po files and you see some of them in diff, it's wrong13:44
c2tarunari-tczew: ok, and you were saying something about more complex packages? Can you please name some.13:45
ari-tczewc2tarun: complex merges mean that they are not easy to merge. you need to review changes very scrupulously because some of them could be fixed in Debian another way or maybe upstream has fixed it.13:46
c2tarunari-tczew: ok may be someday i'll encounter with one :) and one more thing can you please look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/569478/13:47
ari-tczewc2tarun: if you're looking for examples of complex merges, look on revisions ubuntu10 or more13:47
c2tarunari-tczew: I was trying to work on mathgl package in morning, there is this confict.13:48
ari-tczewc2tarun: The most complex package is  grub 0.97-29ubuntu60 I heard that BlackZ is going to merge it, but IMO it's naive. ;)13:48
c2tarunari-tczew: there are these two lines in debian/python* file. Technically both lines will do fine. First one is of ubuntu and second one is of debian, which one should I include?13:49
ari-tczewc2tarun: I'm not python expert, you have to ask someone else. Maybe ScottK ?13:51
c2tarunari-tczew: I thnk the lines have not to do much with python, *-packages is replaced by dist-packages, I tested both lines are working fine. Second line is more verbose. 13:53
ari-tczewc2tarun: but I'm still afraid that you don't understand how it works (merging).13:53
c2tarunari-tczew: well sorry :( but is there anything I said wrong? I mean why do you think I dont understand merging?13:53
ari-tczewc2tarun: Don't be afraid, not everyone is perfect at the start.13:55
ScottKc2tarun: *-packages should be fine.  It's needed in Debian because they still have python2.5 which installed stuff in site-packages.  We just have 2.6+ which only uses dist-packages.  If there are other changes in the package, it's OK to keep that change, but if that's the only change from Debian, it can propably be sync'ed.13:56
ScottK(I say that without knowing the specifics, so be careful to double check *-packages is doing the right thing).13:56
ari-tczewc2tarun: You should look on patches created by MoM which changes are in Ubuntu and compare with patch which changes are in Debian. Maybe some from out delta have been included in Debian?13:56
c2tarunScottK: well the native debian version failed to build on natty, so I think we cannot sync.13:57
ScottKOK.13:57
c2tarunari-tczew: actually what I understand of merging is sometimes packages of debian dont build on natty machine, so we need to make some changes to make it work on ubuntu. When debian includes a new version, than we try to apply the same patch on this new version and look for the conflicts. If there are any we remove them and than merge. Am I right?13:59
ari-tczewc2tarun: quite yes14:00
ScottKc2tarun: It's not just building.  There are other changes we have for better integration in Ubuntu, branding, etc.14:00
c2tarunScottK: that I didnt know, I thought branding was completely controlled by upstream.14:01
ScottKThe goal is to minimize the difference with Debian, so an important part of merging is making sure relevant changes have all been sent back to Debian for them to incorporate in their package.14:01
ScottKc2tarun: It depends.  In Kubuntu we don't change it much, but we do have a few changes.  Ubuntu changes branding stuff very heavily.14:02
c2tarunScottK: how can we sent our changes back to debian?14:02
ScottKIf it's a change that's relvant to Debian, the usual was is to file a bug in the Debian BTS.14:02
ScottKSince you're just getting started, it's best to check if a change is relevant to Debian or not.14:02
c2tarunScottK: ok.14:02
ScottKAs an example, *-packages to dist-packages isn't something Debian would want yet since they still support python2.5.14:03
c2tarunari-tczew: can you please take a look on this upload https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sbuild/+bug/72215914:10
ubottuUbuntu bug 722159 in sbuild (Ubuntu) "Please merge sbuild-0.60.9 from Debian unstable" [Undecided,Confirmed]14:10
ari-tczewc2tarun: Revision info in d/changelog is wrong. Look on revision 0.60.8-1ubuntu1 how it looks.14:13
c2tarunari-tczew: ok so the entry should be just like the one in ubuntu1 and not from ubuntu2. I understood it wrong, I thought we have to mention the latest change we carried.14:17
c2tarunari-tczew: ok, I fixed that, Can you please take a look again.14:24
ari-tczewc2tarun: Now looks fine, but coolbhavi is looking on it.14:40
c2tarunari-tczew: Ya i just saw :)14:41
ari-tczewc2tarun: btw. Why do you use name by CAPS LOCK?14:43
ari-tczewcan't you use it normal as everybody?14:43
c2tarunari-tczew: actually I did it by mistake when I was creating my gpg :( and it is being used since then14:44
ari-tczewc2tarun: could you fix it?14:44
ari-tczewThere is no reason to scream in full name.14:45
c2tarunari-tczew: sure I'll do that, but I dont know how?14:45
ari-tczewc2tarun: https://launchpad.net/~c2tarun/+edit14:52
ari-tczewc2tarun: and don't feel so bad with mistakes. Nobody has started work with 100 years expierence. I appreciate your time spent on Ubuntu development.14:53
ari-tczewc2tarun: Since we are very close to start Feature Freeze, you can't do a lot of merges because in general during Feature Freeze bugfixes only are welcome. I encourage you to spend time on fixing FTBFS with binutils-gold.14:55
ScottKari-tczew and c2tarun:  Stuff like sbuild should be discussed on #ubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-motu.  This channel is for Kubuntu development.14:59
ari-tczewScottK: Agree.14:59
c2tarunScottK: I'll keep that in mind :)15:06
