robert_ancellRAOF, where should I file this one?02:03

htorqueevilvish, you say none of the icons were touched in 0.5.3.5, but according to diff almost all were changed (putting things in style="...")09:01
evilvishhuh?09:01
evilvishhow..09:01
htorqueevilvish, could this have to do with optimizing svgs to save disk space?09:01
evilvishhtorque: do you notice the same issue?09:02
evilvish http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/natty/humanity-icon-theme/natty/revision/3109:02
htorqueevilvish, i've not yet updated09:02
evilvishhmm..09:02
evilvishstupid lp is offline again :/09:03
htorqueevilvish, just updated and i'm getting the same09:10
evilvishoh well, I no clue09:20
htorqueevilvish, this is the diff for the dark stock_person.svg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/578249/09:23
htorqueevilvish, it looks like gradients were wildly replaced - to me that sounds like an optimizing script working too aggressively ;-)09:24
evilvishnone of those have been touched :s09:24
evilvishah ha! pitti updated the rules recently, maybe thats what is causing this09:25
pittiwhat? me? I haven't touched themes in ages09:25
evilvishpitti: could you have a look at Bug 73242709:25
ubot2evilvish: Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: HTTP Error 503: Service Unavailable (https://launchpad.net/bugs/732427)09:25

pittievilvish: no I can't -- LP is offline :)09:25
evilvishboo lp.. ;p09:26
pittievilvish: which rules did I update?09:26
evilvishpitti: if you have the humanity changelog, check it out, you modified the debian/rules09:26
pittiah, these rules09:27
evilvishpitti: i dont know why i just think these might be causing a problem : debian/rules: Build with scour; add python-scour build dependency. , debian/rules: Greatly simplify.09:27
pittievilvish: that might be scour then09:27
pittidebian/rules just changes how the .deb is put together, which doesn't affect shipped .svgs at all; but scour certainly does09:28
evilvishpitti:  cool.. , then you probably know how to fix it .. phew :)09:28
pittiit's an SVG optimizer/compressor09:28
pittievilvish: not until I know what the problem is :)09:28
pittithere's one know scour bug to mess up gradients09:29

evilvishtransparency seems to have been messed up and the gradients are wrong09:30
pittievilvish: ok, that sounds like another instance of above bug thhen09:30

seb128pitti, right, I read your comment on that bug so I checked the language-selector bug list09:56
pittiseb128: that one still has a bad stack trace, though09:56
seb128pitti, I just got it doing what dholbach said, played with the resize grip and closed language-selector, it crashed09:56
pittiseb128: ooh, do you still have the .crash?09:56
seb128pitti, it's easy to get, open the "install,remove languages" dialog09:57
seb128resize it09:57
seb128close it09:57
seb128l-s crashes09:57
pittinot for me :/09:58
pittiI played with all the dialogs for about 5 mins, installed stuff, removed stuff, reordered stuff, etc.09:58
pittiseb128: do you have the .crash still?09:58
seb128yes09:58
seb128you don't need to interact with any dialog09:58
pittiseb128: ok, hang on before you report it -- I'll kill the dup entry in the db, so that it will generate a new trace09:58
seb128pitti, open the extra language list thing09:59
seb128resize and hit esc on the keyboard to close it09:59
seb128pitti, do it a few time if needed but I crash it in 15 seconds here09:59
pittiseb128: 707585 killed from dup db09:59
pittiseb128: I propose you report it now, and I mark the existing bug as a dupe of your's then, so that we'll get a proper stack trace10:00
seb128ok, will try in a bit10:00
pittiseb128: what's the "extra language list thing"?10:00
seb128right now apport refuses to report it because I didn't upgrade pygoject yet today10:00
seb128pitti, the "install,remove extra languages" button you get at the bottom of the first tab10:01
seb128it just crashed while I was typing on IRC now10:01
seb128it seems like a callback or something lead to the crash, it doesn't crash immediatly on action10:01
pittihm, I tried the cancel button and the close button in the window title10:01
seb128I use the wm x button10:02
pittiyeah, me too10:02
pittiaah, I found a way10:03
pittiopen install/remove, then focus the main window again, and press esc10:03
seb128ok that's likely what I did10:03
pittinot quite obvious to get10:03
seb128because esc doesn't seem to close the extra dialog10:03
seb128I probably switched to IRC to reply and back to the wrong dialog to do esc10:03
seb128pitti, if you have an uptodate system can you report the crash?10:04
seb128or I will a bit later once I upgraded10:04

dholbachhello desktop hackers11:37
dholbachjhunt_ tried to fix something in gdm, but because you people mess around with bzr branches in a weird way it's all confusing :)11:38

seb128dholbach, bzr get lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu11:38

seb128hack away, bzr commit, bzr push11:38
dholbachseb128, and where should jhunt_ push his work afterwards?11:38
dholbachpitti, at least it's documented weirdness11:38
dholbachthat's like 5% good :)11:38
pitti~jhunt/gdm/myfixes ?11:38
seb128dholbach, lp:~jhunt_/gdm/lpbug11:39
seb128dholbach, lp:~jhunt_/gdm/ubuntu11:39
dholbachand then propose to merge into lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu - ok11:39
seb128yes11:39
dholbachjhunt_, does that make it a bit clearer? it's not a UDD branch, but a regular bzr branch, just containing ./debian/11:40
pittijhunt_: bzr bd-do, bzr bd -S etc. all continue to work11:40
jhunt_Well, I was trying to push to lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu/single-user-mode-fix, but I get a helpful "permission denied" when I attempt that :)11:40
pittijhunt_: just those are 'merge mode' branches, we don't carry the upstream bits nor the weird pre-applied quilt mess11:40
dholbachjhunt_, lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu/single-user-mode-fix is a UDD branch11:41
pittijhunt_: presumably this should be ubuntu/natty/, not ubuntu/ ?11:41
dholbachso LP might get a bit confused :)11:41
seb128jhunt_, lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu should work11:41
dholbachpitti, no11:41
pittithere are no release-less UDD branches AFAIK11:41
pitti(and yes, pushing to an UDD branch would still be wrong, but it ought to work anyway)11:41
pittiI do that with udev all the time11:42
dholbachpitti, mixing UDD and regular branches?11:42
jhunt_well, I'm certainly confused :) Is all this documented somewhere? Why do I need to care that it isn't a UDD branch?11:42
pittidholbach: as I said it shouldn't be done, but it should still work11:42
dholbachok :)11:42
pittijhunt_: you don't really11:42
jhunt_It would be good if there was a bzr plugin/cmd that could offer suggestsions of logical places I could push to, maybe if I could specify a location "prefix" of lp:~jamesodhunt.11:43
pittibzr bd should take care of how to build the source/binaries, and with "bzr bd-do" you get an UDD-like full source tree you can hack in11:43
jhunt_I'll try lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu...11:43
pittibut anyway, I highly doubt that you can push to lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu/single-user-mode-fix even with an UDD branch11:44
pittidistro branches have 5 components, not 4 (always specifying the release)11:44
pittijhunt_: oh, and wrong order; it's owner/distro/release/package/name, not package/release11:45
pittijhunt_: i. e. your's would try to push into the "gdm" distro :)11:46
jhunt_Right, we have a spanky new merge proposal now: https://code.launchpad.net/~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu/+merge/5283011:50
pitti\o/11:51
jhunt_Thx for help. Do we have a wiki page explaining all these naming conventions somewhere?11:51
pittijhunt_: good question; although there's really only two -- project branches (~owner/project/branchname) and distro branches (~owner/distro/release/package/branchname)11:52
jhunt_Ok, but do we document that?11:52
pittijhunt_: (wrong merge target, btw; lp:gdm is the upstream import, you want to merge into lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu)11:53
pittithat's why it messed up the review diff11:53
pittibut http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu/revision/309 looks fine11:53
pittijhunt_: I hope so, but I don't know where I'm afraid11:53
pittihttp://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/latest/en/tutorials/using_bazaar_with_launchpad.html is linked from the launchpad help about code hosting11:54
pittiit doesn't have the distro branches, though; these sohuld be on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/11:55
jhunt_ok, that first link is useful, but is rather sparse on the "personal branches" section which is after all what newbies really want to know about since they are unlikely to have permission to push to project/team branches I'm guessing?11:58
jhunt_Also, since that bzr link is generic, there is no mention of the fact that lp:ubuntu/foo is an alias for lp:~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/natty/foo/natty (I've only just learnt that :)11:59
jhunt_I'm happy to put up some info on the wiki with what you guys have shared with me later today? It would of course require a review from y'all!12:01
jhunt_Looks like these pages need tweaks: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/SeekingSponsorship and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/UploadingAPackage12:02
jhunt_Maybe a new page referenced by both those pages would be appropriate?12:02
pittijhunt_: right, I think it'd be best on the sponsorship documentation pages12:02
jhunt_pitti: ok, thx.12:02
seb128jhunt_, thanks for the work, sorry the desktop layout is non standard and creating confusion12:05
jhunt_np - It's all a learning experience for me :-)12:06
pittiseb128: (not that UDD branches with pre-applied quilt patches would be any easier..)12:07

seb128jhunt_, the new merge request is still wrong12:15

jhunt_seb128: My branch .bzr/branch/branch.conf shows that parent = "bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu/" and I took your advice above to push to lp:~jamesodhunt/gdm/ubuntu ?12:22
pittijhunt_: that was correct; the MP should be against lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu though, not against lp:gdm (which I suppose Launchpad defaults to)12:22
seb128jhunt_, well I'm not sure what went wrong, can you edit the merge into target?12:22
seb128into -> info12:23
pittino, unfortuantely you can't edit the target of MPs12:23
pittiseb128: but we can still just merge from James' branch and close the MP manually12:23
pittino big deal12:23
seb128right12:23
pittiso let's not make it harder than it is12:23
seb128still it's annoying that it's so bumpy to get a trivial fix in the sponsoring queue12:23
seb128pitti, well I was rather trying to figure how to avoid going through the same issues each time someone want to do a merge request for a desktop component12:24
seb128we can sure commit that patch in12:24

jhunt_pitti, seb128, dholbach: jelmer tells me my last gdm merge request was against the wrong branch. Thus, I spun the roulette wheel again, and we now have this: https://code.launchpad.net/~jamesodhunt/ubuntu/natty/gdm/single-user-mode-fix/+merge/5286014:37
pedro_seb128, I'm good, thanks. how are you doing?14:37
seb128pedro_, I'm fine thanks14:38
seb128jhunt_, still wrong :-(14:38
jhunt_seb128: I give up.14:39
seb128jhunt_, but stop wasting time on it we will just merge the patch14:39
seb128jhunt_, btw if you feel like to reply do an ubuntu-devel list email about how you spent hours to figure how to do a merge request and failed that would be useful14:39
seb128-reply14:40
seb128jhunt_, seems like a flaw in the process we should address14:40
seb128jhunt_, like reply to one of the patch pilot emails on the list or write just about your experience and what didn't work14:40
jhunt_seb128: it might take me a while to get my strength back after this episode, but yes, I agree - the phrase "it shouldn't be this hard" springs to mind very quickly indeed!14:40
jhunt_trouble is, I've deleted all my failed attempts (branches+merges), but once I've regained my sanity, I'll attempt to pen something rant-free to the list...14:42
jhunt_course, that assumes I *do* regain my sanity :)14:42
seb128pitti, did you bzr push --overwrite on gdm?14:47
pittiseb128: I think I removed the older patch for bug 724205 in teh meantime14:48
ubot2Launchpad bug 724205 in gdm "gdm crash on using login button with passwordless login enabled" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72420514:48
pittiand replaced it with the current one14:48
pittiseb128: but that was yesterday14:48
pittiI think I checked that I didn't kill anything else, did I?14:48
seb128pitti, ok but you did --overwrite right?14:48
pittiyes14:48
seb128pitti, I'm trying to figure why r308 is different in jhunt_'s merge request and trunk14:49
seb128pitti, I'm wondering if that's what confused things14:49
seb128pitti, like he did checkout the old revision and you overwrote it14:49
pitti'k, sorry about that14:49
seb128that really confused things for the merge proposal14:49
seb128pitti, no worry, it just makes a bit of sense now14:49
seb128pitti, I'm commiting his patch to trunk14:49
seb128jhunt_, ^ I think you might have got bitten by that as well, pitti did an uncommit, changed a revision to use the official upstream patch and pushed with --overwrite14:50
seb128jhunt_, but that leaded to have a different history in your checkout done before the hack14:50
pittiok, I'll try to avoid that in the future, and just commit a new version replacing the patch14:52
jhunt_seb128: ok, so presumably, when I pushed my branch to below lp:~jamesodhunt, bzr (silently?!) realized the branches had diverged and re-diffed my branch against the new branch history for gdm?14:52
seb128pitti, I do it also sometimes I never though of such cases14:53
jhunt_if true, that sounds like a bug? since if I had privs to push direct to the branch pitti had --overwritten, bzr would have given an error right?14:53
seb128jhunt_, not sure but I'm wondering if that leaded the merge request logic to not find the right merge target14:53
seb128jhunt_, well in any case your patch is in trunk now14:54
jhunt_awesome, I can die happy now - seriously! :-)14:54
seb128jhunt_, do you plan to test on lucid?14:54
seb128jhunt_, if you do don't bother with merge request, just ping me with a diff or tell me if the natty diff applies to lucid14:55
seb128jhunt_, it seems we should fix that in lucid as well14:55
jhunt_can do. I saw this applied to a number of releaes, but unlikely I'll be able to test it today. tomorrow ok?14:56

seb128pitti, just curious but why was that needed? I tend to let the start of the changlog match the uploader14:57
pittiit's the format that dch does by default14:58
seb128pitti, if someone else do dch -r it will put your name in brackets and replace the uploader14:58
pittiso I usually try to keep it consistent14:58
pittiseb128: will it? I had cases where this didn't work14:58
seb128pitti, no it's not the default format14:58
pittiif that got fixed, it was probably unnecessary14:58
seb128it I do dch -r now it replaces the uploader line with my name, add [ pitti ] and I can type on top14:58
seb128it doesn't put my name in brackets14:59
seb128but well it's a detail ;-)14:59
pittiok, so this got fixed then; last time I tried it (a while ago admittedly) it didn't update the first block at all14:59

pittitedg: I have a nicely working session indicator now with control center link15:07
pittitedg: I wondered if you want to entirely drop the static indicator-session-extra.desktop support?15:08
pittisince with the /usr/share/indicators/session/applications/*.desktop support it's equally easy to add stuff to it, but avoids tramping on each other's foot15:08
tedgpitti, I think so.  I don't see any reason to have the static file other than as a placeholder for not having the directory.  With the directory, it's SO much better :)15:09

chrisccoulsoni thought that perhaps it might be a compiz issue, but i tried downgrading that and still got the same issue16:43
tedgchrisccoulson, Yes, I think that indicator-appmenu changed to make it more sensitive to this error.16:43
tedgchrisccoulson, Since the destruction was moved from the WindowMenus object up a step I think that has made this issue visible.16:44

bcurtiswxseb128, from the versions page.  For consolekit, since the ubuntu version doesn't have the ubuntu tag, is that a package I can work on, or does it need higher privileges ?17:21
seb128we can probably just sync this one from debian17:22
bcurtiswxseb128, is there anything I could do to get it ready?17:22
pittibcurtiswx: for these (pkg-utopia) I actually prefer committing directly to the debian git and sync17:23

mterryseb128, heyo.  question for ya.  now that indicator-datetime-preferences is a thing, time-admin is redundant.  Is it most appropriate to not install it at all or to split it into a separate binary package?17:34

mterryseb128, yup17:35
seb128I guess check with xubuntu maybe17:36

broderDoes anybody know of good documentation on the _NET_WM_SYNC_REQUEST protocol? I'm reading the EWMH spec and I don't really understand the order of sync requests vs. XConfigureWindow calls vs. ConfigureNotify events, etc21:24
broder(In particular, from my reading of the spec, the WM isn't really supposed to send more one sync request/XConfigureWindow pair at a time, but compiz doesn't seem to have anything to limit that)21:26
didrockspitti, Sarvatt: FYI, the over trick worked \o/21:29

seb128mpt, bug #732794, when did you log in your user account for the first time?22:14
ubot2Launchpad bug 732794 in unity "Guest session has "Home Folder" in launcher while normal account does not" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/73279422:14
seb128mpt, the icon was changed to be the user dir one in today, if you have a launcher config created before that it has the old icon because there is no migration code during unstable cycles22:15
seb128new installs or new accounts should get the same icon that the guest session22:15
mptseb128, I first logged in to that account yesterday22:15
seb128ok22:15
seb128so that's not a bug22:15
