| fagan | ill still be annoying everyone from IRC :D | 10:05 |
| fagan | nice | 10:06 |
| jderose | JamesTait: happy friday back at you :) | 10:06 |

| jderose | hmm, is UbuntuOne or the SSO on the fritz? just got this "NoneType object has no attribute 'makefile'" error trying to sign in on a new computer using the Ubuntu One Control Panel | 10:07 |
| fagan | jderose: its working on my computer | 10:08 |
| fagan | but im on the dailies | 10:09 |
| jderose | hmmm | 10:09 |
| fagan | wow my internet is very laggy today | 10:14 |
| fagan | Id say I should switch ISP but they are the best one in Ireland | 10:14 |
| jderose | bummer | 10:18 |
| jderose | fagan: so what you working on lately? | 10:18 |
| fagan | jderose: well im handling code review and some bug reports..etc just filling in for some stuff | 10:19 |
| fagan | the main thing is learning :) | 10:19 |
| jderose | i hear that :-D | 10:20 |
| jderose | fagan: just filed my bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntuone-control-panel/+bug/778395 | 10:22 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 778395 in ubuntuone-control-panel (Ubuntu) "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'makefile' (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] | 10:23 |
| fagan | jderose: well im clearing out the older bugs | 10:23 |
| fagan | ill look at it though :) | 10:23 |
| jderose | np :) | 10:23 |
| jderose | fagan: i wasn't saying go fix it... just making conversation :) | 10:24 |

| fagan | oh its the not type makefile one | 10:24 |
| jderose | known bug? | 10:24 |
| fagan | jderose: yeah you just told me about it :D | 10:25 |
| jderose | hehe | 10:25 |

| mandel | I was utterly stupid a few months ago.... | 10:38 |
| jderose | mandel: did you cause my bug? :P | 10:39 |
| mandel | jderose: no, I caoused other that I'm finding now hehe | 10:39 |
| jderose | mandel: what bug? | 10:39 |
| mandel | jderose: I expecting to see you in UDS, you will be there, right? | 10:39 |
| jderose | yup :) | 10:40 |
| mandel | jderose: oh, windows stuff and fs notifications, nothing you should worry about | 10:40 |
| jderose | mandel: nope, not worried about *that* :) | 10:40 |
| mandel | jderose: rodrigo__ and I are looking into including couchdb in gnome and use avahi to solve the port issues | 10:40 |
| mandel | the idea is to use mdns so that you jus look for a 'url' which is always the same and have a proxy that will point to the correct port | 10:41 |
| mandel | so that you can ignore desktopcouch and just access desktopcouch from whereever you want :) | 10:41 |
| mandel | oh, and remove the dbus call for the port | 10:41 |
| jderose | mandel: what is mdns? | 10:42 |
| mandel | jderose: ZeroConf | 10:42 |
| mandel | jderose: similar to apples Bonjour thing | 10:42 |
| mandel | maybe I used the wrong acronym, let me check :P | 10:42 |
| mandel | jderose: I used the correct one: http://www.multicastdns.org/ | 10:43 |
| jderose | so the ms equiv of avahi? | 10:43 |
| jderose | okay, gotcha... i better learn the term as i need to add it to dmedia :) | 10:44 |
| jderose | mandel: so would this mdns entry just advertise desktopcouch on localhost, or on entire localnet? | 10:45 |
| * jderose doesn't know if that's a dumb question :) | 10:46 | |
| mandel | jderose: localnet I think, but I'm not 100% sure | 10:47 |
| mandel | certainly not a dumb question | 10:47 |
| jderose | mandel: but your using this to do the equivalent of the getPort() DBus call? | 10:48 |
| mandel | jderose: yes, you not longer need dbus, you can get it from avahi | 10:49 |
| jderose | mandel: is this just on widows, or everywhere? | 10:49 |
| mandel | jderose: avahi is linux | 10:50 |
| mandel | jderose: the idea would be to get this in gnome as a gnome project (so is or free time ;) ) | 10:50 |
| jderose | mandel: i guess my question is, is the dbus call going away on linux? | 10:50 |
| mandel | jderose: no, this is just or pet project, that is staing AFAIK | 10:50 |
| jderose | ah, gotcha | 10:51 |
| mandel | jderose: nothing official of desktopcouh at all | 10:51 |
| jderose | mandel: dunno if you looked at this recently - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopCouchWishList | 10:52 |
| jderose | mandel: but i wonder if what you're experimenting with might be a possible solution to my "abstractcouch" idea... which i absolutely need for dmedia/Novacut | 10:52 |
| mandel | jderose: I think too, that is why I told you about it :) | 10:53 |
| jderose | mandel: well awesome, thanks you! | 10:54 |
| jderose | er, thank you | 10:54 |
| jderose | bout my bedtime :) | 10:54 |
| mandel | jderose: we should talk at some point at uds, catch you later! | 10:54 |
| jderose | mandel: cool, see you then | 10:54 |
| rodrigo_ | mandel, oh, btw, I think I've found the solution to the only avahi problem I think there was (what to do if several instances from different users were announced via avahi) | 11:12 |
| rodrigo_ | mandel, let me push it | 11:12 |
| mandel | rodrigo_: what was it? | 11:12 |
| mandel | rodrigo_: jderose is a perfect app example that would benefit from your avahi approach | 11:13 |
| rodrigo_ | what to do if several instances from different users were announced via avahi | 11:13 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, oh, what app? | 11:13 |
| jderose | yes, i am a perfect app :) | 11:13 |
| jderose | dmedia - https://launchpad.net/dmedia | 11:13 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, who programmed you? :) | 11:13 |
| * rodrigo_ looks | 11:13 | |
| fagan | a great app | 11:14 |
| jderose | dunno, i'm not that introspective :P | 11:14 |
| fagan | :) | 11:14 |
| rodrigo_ | :D | 11:14 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: this talks all about my current desktopcouch pain points - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopCouchWishList | 11:14 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, hopefully couchdb-glib solves them, let me have a look | 11:15 |
| rodrigo_ | hmm, page not available | 11:16 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: is there documentation of couchdb-glib api anywhere? i'm not familiar with what it does, to be honest | 11:16 |
| rodrigo_ | timed out | 11:16 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, yes, in a debian package | 11:16 |
| jderose | hmm, try again? it's working for me | 11:16 |
| rodrigo_ | API reference | 11:16 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, it's a couchdb client lib | 11:16 |
| rodrigo_ | ah, now the page loads | 11:17 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: well, i really don't want a "client"... i want to talk to CouchDB with strait HTTP... i just need a light way to get info about what the CouchDB environment is... page explains it | 11:17 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, that's what couchdb-glib does, although it's got an API that hides the raw HTTP protocol | 11:18 |
| rodrigo_ | yeah, reading it | 11:18 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: no good for me... i need to talk to CouchDB from webkit with XMLHttpRequest | 11:19 |
| mandel | rodrigo_: an we provide a name to the avahi service? | 11:19 |
| rodrigo_ | mandel, yes, couchdb-mdns:$username | 11:19 |
| mandel | rodrigo_: indeed | 11:19 |
| mandel | jderose: can't you access the c libs from js? | 11:19 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, right, from js, you can use the gobject introspection API | 11:19 |
| rodrigo_ | that's what gnome-shell does | 11:19 |
| jderose | mandel: i don't want to ;) | 11:19 |
| karni | jderose: sounds interesting, what are you working on? | 11:20 |
| fagan | karni: dmedia | 11:20 |
| fagan | and novacut | 11:20 |
| jderose | karni: dmedia is the part that will move video/audio files around for the Novacut distributed video editor | 11:20 |
| fagan | https://launchpad.net/dmedia | 11:20 |
| mandel | jderose: why not? | 11:20 |
| karni | jderose: ah, cool :) | 11:20 |
| karni | fagan: thanks | 11:21 |
| * fagan is a fan boi | 11:21 | |
| jderose | mandel: because i'm not using JavaScript because i like it, but because I like a powerful layout engine, and to be able to access as a webservice from a standard web browser :) | 11:21 |
| * jderose appreciates fagan's consistent fan boi ism :) | 11:22 | |
| fagan | hah | 11:22 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, ok, had a quick look at that page, and most stuff seems to be solved with couchdb-glib and the replacement for desktopcouch we're looking at | 11:25 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, only thing is the 'distribution over the web' | 11:25 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, would that be distributing to non-linux systems? | 11:26 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: that's a total deal breaker for me then :( | 11:26 |
| rodrigo_ | yes, seems so | 11:26 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: got to have HTTP be the API, for me | 11:26 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: which isn't bad... i just need something light that returns the info in my proposed abstractcouch.get_env() | 11:26 |
| rodrigo_ | right, but what do you do when you distribute over the web and the system where it gets distributed doesn't have desktopcouh (the service)? | 11:26 |
| jderose | and i can take care of the rest | 11:26 |
| rodrigo_ | talk to a remote server? | 11:27 |
| jderose | yup | 11:27 |
| rodrigo_ | right, so distributing the introspection stuff won't work | 11:27 |
| jderose | browser talks to remote couchdb... but i want to use as close to the same JavaScript as possible... at most might be a bit of templating | 11:27 |
| rodrigo_ | and you want to share the same code to access couchdb in the desktop client and the web client? | 11:28 |
| jderose | javascript doesn't need the info from abstractcouch.get_env() by the way... i have a special subclass of WebKit.WebView that trasparently signs the oath request when needed | 11:28 |
| jderose | yes, same javascript | 11:28 |
| rodrigo_ | right, then I guess the best thing for you is to not use desktopcouch/couchdb-glib, but talk HTTP directly | 11:29 |
| rodrigo_ | if you want to share the same code | 11:29 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: for example, dmedia UI peices can already run talking to desktopcouch, or system wide CouchDB, and in embedded WebKit, or a browser | 11:29 |
| jderose | right | 11:29 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, yes, that part is done transparently in couchdb-glib also | 11:30 |
| jderose | plus wrappers just keep getting in my way... i need to use CouchDB aggressively | 11:30 |
| rodrigo_ | the couchdb-glib API is a 1:1 mapping of the HTTP API | 11:30 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: *all* of it? :) | 11:30 |
| rodrigo_ | but again, you'd need couchdb-glib installed and the introspection stuff on all the systems you distribute to | 11:31 |
| jderose | plus, i don't want a mapping... because i can't use that from webkit | 11:31 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, most of it, and whatever is missing, I can add it | 11:31 |
| rodrigo_ | right, that's why I think you'd better use HTTP directly, without any API | 11:31 |
| jderose | yeah | 11:31 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, what things in the HTTP API (apart from the basic stuff) do you use? | 11:32 |
| jderose | but to do that, i need to desktoport to stay the same through the session | 11:32 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, right, we want to solve that in the desktopcouch rewrite | 11:32 |
| rodrigo_ | right now, there is code to announce the port via avahi, and couchdb will be monitored, so that when it dies, it's restarted on the same port | 11:33 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: um, most all it? i need a lot of control, need to use very explicitly | 11:33 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: that would be awesome... that's basically all i need :) | 11:33 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, ok, just wanted to know what to add in the couchdb-glib API :) | 11:33 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, that's what it has right now -> http://git.gnome.org/browse/couchdb-glib/tree/couchdb-glib | 11:34 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: well, i guess something like my abstractcouch.get_env() proposal, possibly - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopCouchWishList#abstractcouch | 11:34 |
| rodrigo_ | most important thing missing is a better handling of atttachments | 11:34 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, yes, that looks good, not sure yet how to do the oauth thing | 11:35 |
| rodrigo_ | since having clients to read gnome-keyring is a bad thing | 11:35 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: for what it's worth, i'm moving toward a very generic REST "adapter" like this - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~microfiber/microfiber/trunk/view/head:/microfiber.py | 11:35 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, how is that implemented in your code? | 11:35 |
| jderose | i have the equivalent thing in javascript | 11:35 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: here is current - http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dmedia/dmedia/trunk/view/head:/dmedia/core.py#L89 | 11:35 |
| jderose | the 'dbname' part wouldn't be included... that's dmedia specific | 11:36 |
| rodrigo_ | hmm | 11:37 |
| fagan | mandel: have any merges for me | 11:38 |
| fagan | I forgot to ask | 11:38 |
| mandel | fagan: I'm stuck with a bug and pdb | 11:38 |
| mandel | fagan: I'll let you as soon as I move :P | 11:38 |
| fagan | ahh ok | 11:38 |
| fagan | I just cant do bugs at the moment because my internet is horribly slow | 11:39 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: are you going to be at uds? | 11:39 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, yes | 11:39 |
| rodrigo_ | you? | 11:39 |
| jderose | yup, so we'll have to chat more there | 11:39 |
| rodrigo_ | yes | 11:39 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: i have a blueprint for this - https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-desktopcouch-enhancements | 11:40 |
| rodrigo_ | ok, just subscribed | 11:40 |
| rodrigo_ | is there a session shceduled for that? | 11:40 |
| jderose | everyone: i better go to bed, getting cross eyed :) | 11:41 |
| rodrigo_ | :) | 11:41 |
| rodrigo_ | jderose, ok, see you in Budapest | 11:41 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: um, i'm not totally sure yet... but i pinged jorge castro about it, so i think it's scheduled | 11:41 |
| jderose | rodrigo_: also this blueprint - https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/other-o-novacut-roadmap | 11:41 |
| jderose | it's scheduled... monday, right after keynote | 11:41 |
| jderose | anyway, night everyone! | 11:42 |

| * mandel back | 13:59 | |
| mandel | do we have a stand up? | 14:02 |
| dobey | no | 14:02 |
| fagan | nope | 14:03 |
| * fagan just wants to standup and dance | 14:03 | |
| mandel | was there an email that said this that I missed? | 14:05 |
| fagan | not that I can see | 14:05 |
| thisfred | jderose: it's approved looks like :) | 14:06 |
| dobey | mandel: no, but half the team is not around, so not much point :) | 14:06 |
| fagan | plus no one wants to read about me complaining to my ISP about having crap internet today | 14:08 |
| fagan | :D | 14:08 |
| mandel | ok, no problem | 14:09 |
| dobey | is RyanAir an ISP now too? | 14:09 |
| fagan | nope but if they did they would be the cheapest and worst around | 14:09 |
| fagan | :D | 14:09 |
| fagan | plus there would be a load of hidden charges like if you go onto google instead of bing you have to pay 1 euro | 14:12 |
| fagan | dobey: your in the US right? | 14:16 |
| dobey | you're | 14:16 |
| dobey | and yes i am | 14:16 |
| fagan | have you noticed a lot of product placement on the tv at the moment | 14:16 |
| fagan | like every show | 14:16 |
| dobey | i don't watch tv | 14:16 |
| fagan | for ford and toyota and bing and windows everything | 14:16 |
| * fagan has been seeing it a lot | 14:17 | |
| dobey | am too busy being awesome for that junk | 14:17 |
| dobey | thisfred: ping | 14:17 |
| fagan | dobey: ah I can be awesome and watch american idol :D | 14:17 |
| thisfred | dobey: pong | 14:17 |
| * fagan can multitask | 14:18 | |
| dobey | thisfred: any chance we can fix the control-panel tests to not require having unity installed? | 14:18 |
| dobey | fagan: that is by definition, not awesome | 14:18 |
| thisfred | dobey: sure, I thought we were mocking all access to unity anyway | 14:19 |
| fagan | ha | 14:19 |
| thisfred | dobey: where does it break? | 14:19 |
| dobey | thisfred: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/71157354/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-i386.ubuntuone-control-panel_1.1.0%2Br140-22~maverick1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz | 14:20 |
| dobey | thisfred: that's what happens on maverick right now | 14:20 |
| * thisfred scrolls | 14:20 | |
| dobey | thisfred: probably easier to hit End, and then PgUp to the errors | 14:21 |
| thisfred | dobey: ah, so it's the mocking itself that fails, because the libraries aren't there | 14:21 |
| thisfred | dobey: it's not the only problem though. What do you suggest? conditionally skipping those tests? | 14:22 |
| thisfred | that would be easiest I think | 14:22 |
| dobey | so there's also one failure on narwhal as well | 14:23 |
| thisfred | that's surprising | 14:23 |
| dobey | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/604085/ | 14:23 |
| thisfred | wtf | 14:23 |
| thisfred | oh ok, because you're testing on headless? | 14:24 |
| dobey | thisfred: i think maybe we should just replace with a fake object before the import attempt | 14:24 |
| dobey | thisfred: i don't think so, xvfb is installed/used there | 14:24 |
| thisfred | I guess, not sure how to do that though | 14:24 |
| dobey | yeah, not sure, but it's python so it must be doable right | 14:25 |
| thisfred | sure, could do dependency injection, but I've come to hate that | 14:26 |
| thisfred | I'll have a go at it | 14:26 |
| thisfred | But I think I'll do a try except around the import and skip tests when there is no unity | 14:26 |
| thisfred | though that's kinda scary | 14:27 |
| thisfred | so maybe not | 14:27 |
| === teknico_away is now known as teknico | ||
| mandel | thisfred: there should be no issues if you do know that you skip due to that, you could also add a decoratro (I added a few in u1-dev-tools) that skips if the module is not there | 14:28 |
| mandel | thisfred: is @skipIf(something) | 14:28 |
| mandel | which might be cleaner and more obvious | 14:28 |
| thisfred | mandel: but then if the import fails for some other reason, the tests won't alert us | 14:29 |
| mandel | well, it depends how smart is your function in the decorator | 14:29 |
| thisfred | so I prefer better mocking/faking if I can get it to work | 14:29 |
| thisfred | mandel: the problem is that ImportError can mask a lot of different issues | 14:30 |
| mandel | indeed | 14:30 |
| thisfred | So let me see if I can make a mock/fake Unity object without ever trying to import the real one. | 14:32 |
| dobey | mandel: btw, when did we start using python-imaging in sso? | 14:36 |
| mandel | dobey: oh, that is a nice one… it is because jpg support is a pluing in Qt, if we did not care about py2exe we will just as the user to install pqt and forget about it | 14:38 |
| mandel | problem is, that we freeze the app and the qt plugins cannot be loaded due to the way that sip works, so we use PIL to convert the captcha image from jpg to bmp | 14:38 |
| mandel | major hack and horrible, but ralsina and I could not think of anyother way :( | 14:38 |
| mandel | I do apologize in the comments | 14:39 |
| dobey | :-/ | 14:39 |
| mandel | dobey: I know, is shit I have to look deeper into sip and py2exe and C++ plugins | 14:41 |
| mandel | major PITA | 14:41 |
| * statik tries to unsee what mandel said about image conversion | 15:14 | |
| dobey | heh | 15:15 |
| fagan | how are you statik | 15:16 |
| statik | fagan, groovy thanks. you? | 15:16 |
| fagan | the ARB hasnt really done much since you left | 15:17 |
| fagan | statik: im good :) | 15:17 |
| mandel | statik: I sear to god, I tried not to do it, problem is, qt just support bmp natively, so when you freeze the pyqt UI it starts complaining about threads (seems that the external dlls are loaded in a funny way) | 15:17 |
| mandel | statik: but it does work if we do not freeze it | 15:17 |
| mandel | so lets port apt-get :) | 15:17 |
| statik | mandel, i'm trying to forget but the sadness is so deep and powerful | 15:17 |
| fagan | gogo apt-get :)_ | 15:17 |
| fagan | mandel: that can be your friday task | 15:18 |
| fagan | and actually microsoft are making an opensource installer | 15:18 |
| fagan | its called coapp | 15:18 |
| fagan | its on lp | 15:18 |
| mandel | statik: also happens with py2app, take a look http://www.thetoryparty.com/wp/2009/08/27/pyqt-and-py2app-seriously-i-dont-know-what-to-do-with-you-when-youre-like-this/ | 15:19 |
| mandel | fagan: well, I would not wait standing up for it | 15:19 |
| fagan | hah | 15:20 |
| thisfred | mandel: dobey: https://code.launchpad.net/~thisfred/ubuntuone-control-panel/hail-discordia/+merge/60189 (had to conditionally skip the test since we already conditionally imported Unity.) | 15:20 |
| mandel | thisfred: lookin | 15:23 |
| dobey | thisfred: why not use @skipIf? | 15:23 |
| thisfred | dobey: because it's not used anywhere in u1cp yet, so I was too lazy to figure out where to import it from. I just did what is done everywhere else | 15:23 |
| mandel | booo | 15:24 |
| mandel | all my effort thrown away :P | 15:24 |
| thisfred | wasted! WASTED! | 15:24 |

| mandel | well, with an extra f | 15:25 |
| thisfred | all right | 15:26 |
| thisfred | I'll change it | 15:26 |
| thisfred | gawd, you're sensitive | 15:26 |
| thisfred | :P | 15:26 |
| dobey | thisfred: it's in devtools | 15:26 |
| thisfred | mandel: also I hate it because it's camel cased | 15:27 |
| dobey | then you shouldn't use Python | 15:27 |
| dobey | but i really hate long names with lots of underscores | 15:28 |
| dobey | camelCase isn't so bad | 15:28 |
| dobey | as long as the names are brief | 15:28 |
| dobey | somethingIfInTheSky is annoying | 15:28 |
| thisfred | dobey: In python you only CamelCase classes ever. | 15:29 |
| thisfred | never functions or methods. | 15:30 |
| dobey | and decorators, and methods | 15:30 |
| thisfred | nope | 15:30 |
| thisfred | never | 15:30 |
| dobey | lies | 15:30 |
| mandel | thisfred: I just followed the same pattern used in unittest2 and the unittest in 2.7 | 15:30 |
| statik | except in the stdlib | 15:30 |
| thisfred | another reason twisted sucks | 15:30 |
| thisfred | statik: well there's that ;) | 15:30 |
| mandel | thisfred: which is in the stdlib :) | 15:30 |
| thisfred | I hope they got all of those for python 3 but I seriously doubt it | 15:31 |
| dobey | stdlib is the ritual burial grounds of python | 15:31 |
| mandel | I just wanted to follow the smae pattern so that if a new devl gets thrown at he understands WTF it does | 15:32 |
| mandel | is actually the same decorator, but for twisted | 15:32 |
| thisfred | dobey: yeah I'd advise against building suburbs on top of it ;) | 15:32 |
| thisfred | mandel: twisted already gets all the casing wrong so you're consistent ;) | 15:33 |
| dobey | twisted gets EVERYTHING wrong | 15:33 |
| mandel | thisfred: you can reuse the decoratator, but add extra logic to chec if unity is present and call it skip_no_unity or something else | 15:33 |
| thisfred | mandel: dobey r143 pushed | 15:34 |
| dobey | mandel: he already pushed using skipIf, so just review it :) | 15:34 |
| thisfred | WOMM (last M is Maverick) | 15:34 |
| mandel | :D | 15:35 |
| mandel | thisfred, dobey: can you guys see why I'm getting this: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/604111/ | 15:37 |
| mandel | I look at it, and I cant find the bloody diff | 15:37 |
| dobey | mandel: the last entry is different | 15:37 |
| thisfred | If only we had computers to do work like that for us | 15:37 |
| mandel | thisfred: the test is complaining, but I dont see why :P | 15:38 |
| mandel | smart ass ;) | 15:38 |
| thisfred | mandel: extra space | 15:38 |
| mandel | oh, saw it | 15:38 |
| dobey | I wish assertEqual would point out where the differences are, like pylint/etc... | 15:40 |
| mandel | dobey: yes, that would be the right thing to do | 15:41 |
| dobey | ubuntu_sso/qt/tests/test_windows.py: 68: [E0012] Bad option value 'W0106' | 15:41 |
| dobey | mandel: ^ | 15:41 |
| mandel | dobey: are you in M? | 15:41 |
| dobey | mandel: i am not, but that is in the nightlies build; we're running the tests during the package builds | 15:42 |
| dobey | i guess that is an issue with pylint version? | 15:42 |
| mandel | dobey: but on which system, that was added due to pylint being update | 15:42 |
| mandel | dobey: yes, that's it | 15:43 |
| dobey | mandel: it failed on maverick with that | 15:43 |
| dobey | sigh | 15:43 |
| mandel | dobey: we can add it in the global ignore, but I dont know if it would work... | 15:43 |
| mandel | that week I di dsay 'puto pylint' several times... | 15:43 |
| dobey | eh, i'll just leave it as failed for now, and think about how to fix it | 15:44 |
| dobey | it's not urgent or anything | 15:44 |
| mandel | dobey: ok, if you need any help (review etc..) let me know | 15:45 |
| dobey | i will | 15:46 |
| dobey | hopefully u1cp builds again after thisfred's branch lands | 15:46 |
| mandel | I keep reading u1cp as 'one cup' | 15:47 |
| thisfred | dobey: I don't know: there were a lot of other errors in the tb you sent that I don't get here | 15:47 |
| mandel | which leads me to remember some stupid video on the internet | 15:47 |
| thisfred | don't make us ban you mandel | 15:47 |
| dobey | thisfred: are you on maverick? | 15:47 |
| thisfred | dobey: 1 machine is | 15:47 |
| dobey | oh i guess there are some more tests | 15:48 |
| dobey | that fail on maverick, but not because of unity | 15:48 |
| dobey | hrmm | 15:48 |
| thisfred | dobey: not here though... | 15:48 |
| dobey | well let's see what it does now, with your branch | 15:48 |
| thisfred | I only got the 4 unity failures that are all the same tes | 15:48 |
| thisfred | t | 15:49 |
| dobey | thisfred: well it could be an environmental issue | 15:49 |
| thisfred | tis merged | 15:50 |
| dobey | yep and nightlies are building | 15:50 |
| psypher246 | karni: Hi karni, with reagrsdc to bug: 776221, I have had no response from Joshua, so I was wondering that my only option now is to re-upload all my data | 15:51 |
| karni | psypher246: hi! oh that's bad. he might be in Budapest before UDS. I can e-mail him and ask if there's been any progress on this, if you'd like that. | 15:52 |
| karni | psypher246: e-mail sent | 15:54 |
| karni | psypher246: he's not in IRC atm so it's the best way to catch him I believe. | 15:54 |
| psypher246 | karni: thanks, i just need to know cos i might have to give the broken laptop hard drive back to dell | 15:54 |
| psypher246 | karni: so i might loose that intact ubuntu one folder, so i might just hav to copy the data over and start again | 15:55 |
| karni | psypher246: right, I see :( Well, maybe let's wait until the rest of day and if there's no response, you could start uploading it back (in a manner, that would not delete any of that intact data. for instance, remove write permission just to be sure syncdaemon doesn't fsck something up) | 15:57 |
| psypher246 | ok cool thanks man | 15:57 |
| === hrw is now known as hrw|away | ||
| * alecu is done packing, and about to leave for the airport | 16:09 | |
| karni | psypher246: please, just take great caution if you want to reconnect to ubuntu one on primary. I wouldn't want those unlinks to sync back to your machine. I don't feel the best person to assist you with reconnecting, but disconnecting was the only way to keep it safe. I hope Josh will get back to me, because many ppl are on holiday or vacation at this moment. | 16:14 |
| psypher246 | karni: don't worry i am just going to make a straight copy of all my files in there to another location so it will all be safe | 16:15 |
| psypher246 | karni: it's not the end of the world that I have to re-upload, at the moment i am mroe interested in trying to help you fix a bug for future use, if this problem helps learn something new then I'm happy | 16:16 |
| karni | psypher246: that'd be a good idea. although I know you've purchased a 20 pack so you could expect to back it up in the cloud and it Should Work™ | 16:16 |
| dobey | oh i guess he left for eze already | 16:16 |
| karni | psypher246: yes, definitely. We've certainly learned that users should only copy their files, first of all. Question is, what should they do if they have already copied meta data also and connected to the cloud at least once. | 16:17 |
| karni | dobey: eze ? | 16:17 |
| dobey | karni: airport in buenos aires | 16:19 |
| karni | dobey: oh | 16:19 |
| dobey | alecu :) | 16:19 |
| danyR | hey u1ers. I'm having some problems with facebook contact syncing. I set up everything, no errors reported, but then no contacts show up | 16:23 |
| dobey | lunchtime bbiab | 16:28 |
| fagan | danyR: there arent many here today | 16:36 |
| fagan | I dont really know who to ask about the website either and I cant really help | 16:36 |
| rockstar | danyR, hi | 16:37 |
| karni | fagan: I did ;) | 16:37 |
| fagan | hah | 16:37 |
| JamesTait | rockstar: I'll let you take it then. :) | 16:37 |
| * fagan just thought it and people jumped in | 16:37 | |
| rockstar | JamesTait, I'm only going as far as finding out it's not my fault, then I punting to you. :) | 16:37 |
| * JamesTait felt a disturbance in the Force. ;) | 16:38 | |
| JamesTait | rockstar: Haha, OK! | 16:38 |
| * JamesTait tag-teams with rockstar on danyR's problem. | 16:39 | |
| karni | fagan: I did the same + ask on #web-and-mobile ;) | 16:39 |
| fagan | karni: on canonical or ubuntu irc? | 16:40 |
| karni | fagan: canonical | 16:40 |
| fagan | ahhhh | 16:40 |
| JamesTait | rockstar: I'll let you take the UI part, since you're way more familiar with that than I am. | 16:40 |
| fagan | I didnt think we had one on ubuntu | 16:40 |
| karni | fagan: Plus, I'm from web-and-mobile, so I should now :) | 16:41 |
| karni | danyR: yo dawg, people here waiting to help, you better use that opportunity ;) | 16:41 |
| fagan | karni: well if you didnt it would be very funny | 16:42 |
| karni | fagan: It would be sad. | 16:42 |
| fagan | karni: well I still find it hard to know who does what around here | 16:43 |
| fagan | I know my team even if I think nessita and natalia are different people | 16:43 |
| fagan | :d | 16:43 |
| * fagan hates IRC nicks sometimes | 16:43 | |
| * fagan is plotting a replacement that everyone has to use their names or something | 16:44 | |
| karni | fagan: because you're so focused on working with mandel ;) | 16:44 |
| karni | fagan: /whois :P | 16:44 |
| fagan | karni: yeah isnt that a good thing | 16:44 |
| karni | fagan: then, I should only know myself and CardinalFan-g ;d So it's not a good excuse ;) | 16:45 |
| fagan | karni: tis | 16:45 |
| fagan | :D | 16:45 |
| karni | ok, enough of my rambling. back to work | 16:45 |
| fagan | well im off in 15 anyway | 16:45 |
| fagan | EOW | 17:00 |
| fagan | EOD | 17:00 |
| fagan | later safe trips to UDS | 17:00 |
| danyR | rockstar: sorry, I'd to leave unexpectedly :) | 17:01 |
| rockstar | danyR, how can I help? | 17:15 |
| danyR | rockstar: U1 web interface says my contacts are synced. however, not a single contact is displayed (no errors reported during the proccess). | 17:16 |
| rockstar | danyR, did you ever see a little box that asked you if you'd like to create empty contacts from your Facebook contacts? | 17:18 |
| rockstar | danyR, also, do you have existing contacts that aren't Facebook contacts? | 17:18 |
| danyR | rockstar: about 1), yes, I think I saw it one or two times. may have accepted it, in fact | 17:18 |
| danyR | rockstar: I'd at the time. In the meantime I deleted all contacts, so no contacts right now | 17:19 |
| rockstar | danyR, could you de-authorize Facebook and try again, this time paying attention to the boxes that pop up? | 17:20 |
| rockstar | And don't navigate from the page while it's working. | 17:20 |
| danyR | rockstar: Should I de-authorize the U1 App in my Facebook settings? | 17:21 |
| rockstar | danyR, you can do it from U1 as well. | 17:23 |
| rockstar | In fact, that'd be preferable. | 17:23 |
| danyR | rockstar: syncing... :) | 17:24 |
| danyR | rockstar: "Yey, you don't seem to have any duplicate contacts!" | 17:29 |
| danyR | rockstar: Everything seems to have gone great. Should I refresh the page now that it has ended? | 17:30 |
| danyR | rockstar: no success, still no entries :( | 17:33 |
| rockstar | danyR, ooh, I think you may have found a bug, actually. | 17:42 |
| danyR | rockstar: any info required for debugging? | 17:45 |
| rockstar | danyR, nope, I know exactly what's wrong there. | 17:45 |
| danyR | rockstar: ok, cool. glad I could help :) | 17:45 |
| thisfred | CardinalFang: any idea why desktopcouch-service would take 100% CPU? Getting multiple reports | 17:47 |

| SteveA | hey there! | 17:48 |
| thisfred | hey SteveA! | 17:49 |
| thisfred | congrats on the nowtalking launch! | 17:49 |
| SteveA | thanks thisfred | 17:50 |
| SteveA | I'm writing a blog article about pre-implementation reviews | 17:50 |
| SteveA | and I'm wondering how much they're used for developing ubuntu one | 17:50 |
| thisfred | So reviews in the design phase? | 17:51 |
| thisfred | I'm not sure I understand what they are :) | 17:51 |
| teknico | SteveA, ehi, what's up? :-) | 17:52 |
| SteveA | I was chatting to Geir from Jarn, and when someone takes a task (say a bugfix), they are encouraged to have a 5-20 minute chat with a team member | 17:53 |
| SteveA | to talk through what they're going to be doing | 17:53 |
| SteveA | the launchpad team do something similar, where there's an optional pre-implementation review (that gets noted in the merge proposal) | 17:54 |
| SteveA | that usually happens with a squad-member | 17:54 |
| thisfred | SteveA: on bugs I would say we don't often do that unless the assignee is unclear how to proceed. With new features I think we do this pretty extensively, starting with UDS, then back and forths between design and developers. | 17:54 |
| SteveA | or, if the work is deep in the guts of something specific, with someone else who knows a lot about that area | 17:54 |
| SteveA | hi teknico! | 17:55 |
| thisfred | Right. I find myself often asking for help before starting coding, especially since moving to desktop, but that's not exactly the same as making a plan and having that reviewed. | 17:55 |
| SteveA | well, it's not formal | 17:55 |
| SteveA | like making a plan and having that reviewed | 17:55 |
| thisfred | right, just a chat | 17:56 |
| SteveA | it's more like having a planning conversation out-loud with a partner | 17:56 |
| SteveA | perhaps to avoid the kind of self-deception where I'll think I know what I'm going to be doing in detail | 17:56 |
| thisfred | well, I don't think we do that a lot yet, but it sounds like a good idea | 17:56 |
| SteveA | but really I've glossed over important specifics to myself | 17:56 |
| thisfred | right | 17:56 |
| SteveA | but this gets revealed when I try to explain it to someone else | 17:56 |
| thisfred | basically pair programming before the programming starts | 17:57 |
| SteveA | I like that | 17:57 |
| SteveA | and considering that programming is a lot about communication with other programmers | 17:57 |
| thisfred | I know I often had and have very fruitful discussions with vds and teknico before starting work, so I know this works | 17:57 |
| teknico | that's because we're both Dutch ;-) | 17:58 |
| thisfred | hehe | 17:58 |
| vds | SteveA, hello! | 17:58 |
| SteveA | hi vincenzo! | 17:58 |
| thisfred | chad also bug #764931 is waiting for an answer | 18:00 |

| CardinalFang | thisfred, thanks. | 18:02 |
| thisfred | CardinalFang: nessita is bored in Budapest. Guess it beats sleepless in Seattle ;) | 18:03 |
| dobey | hi SteveA! congrats! | 18:10 |
| SteveA | hi dobey! thanks! | 18:11 |
| dobey | SteveA: i'll be in amsterdam for a short layover on sunday. :) | 18:12 |
| dobey | not enough to get out of the airport though | 18:12 |
| SteveA | no way! what time? | 18:12 |
| dobey | 13:05-14:35 | 18:13 |
| dobey | so i'll probably have 40 minutes total in the airport :) | 18:13 |
| SteveA | I'd meet you for a coffee at the airport, but I'm giving a workshop at that time | 18:14 |
| SteveA | let me know next time. I live only a short tram+train ride from the airport | 18:14 |
| dobey | cool | 18:15 |
| dobey | SteveA: re: pr-impl reviews, i don't think we have anything like that in the documented sense; but with u1 being so broad, i think we just have people talking a lot in general, as they move into using new APIs they aren't familiar with, and such | 18:18 |
| dobey | thisfred: looks like the u1cp dailies still fail; a lint issue in narwhal which i can fix with a build-depends i think, and the other weird test errors on maverick | 18:19 |
| thisfred | dobey: yeah strange, I cannot reproduce the maverick ones here | 18:20 |
| dobey | thisfred: weird. i think i have an idea where to look, though | 18:20 |
| thisfred | dobey: In the general direction of Barcelona? ;) | 18:20 |
| dobey | no, seems unrelated to windows | 18:21 |
| thisfred | Barcelona/Redmond, the axis of evil | 18:21 |
| dobey | thisfred: you have maverick readily available, right? | 18:22 |
| thisfred | yep | 18:22 |
| thisfred | I speak to you from the past | 18:22 |
| dobey | thisfred: what does "dpkg -L gir1.0-soup-2.4|grep typelib$" output? | 18:22 |
| thisfred | /usr/lib/girepository-1.0/SoupGNOME-2.4.typelib | 18:22 |
| thisfred | /usr/lib/girepository-1.0/Soup-2.4.typelib | 18:22 |
| dobey | ok, so it is there. i think SoupGNOME might be broken though :( | 18:23 |
| thisfred | Still, why would the tests pass here? | 18:23 |
| dobey | no idea yet | 18:24 |
| dobey | i'll fix the narwhal issue first | 18:25 |
| dobey | sweet, the narwhal one built now | 19:03 |
| dobey | later all | 22:05 |
| * karni likes Natty! | 23:37 | |
| karni | What I don't like is it stealing my OMGZ-so-often-used command key for shortcuts | 23:39 |
| karni | bummer, touchpad not working correctly. /me googles | 23:46 |
| duanedesign | karni: hello! | 23:46 |
| duanedesign | karni: been a looooong day. My dad is out of town so I am fifling inf or him | 23:47 |
| duanedesign | karni: he does paving work like asphalt and concrete. | 23:48 |
| duanedesign | i am sore. Hard to go from working on a laptep to very demanding physical labor. | 23:48 |
| karni | duanedesign: holly crap, that must have been really tiring :( | 23:54 |
| duanedesign | ughhhh | 23:56 |
| duanedesign | i used to do it a lot when I was in college. Wasnt so bad back then. | 23:56 |
| karni | duanedesign: FYI almost every holiday (apart from last GSoC) I turned from programmer to low profile, sometimes physical work as well (family business) | 23:56 |
| karni | duanedesign: You got some exercise ;) | 23:56 |
| duanedesign | but Iam gettin to old, or used to being behinda desk, for that work | 23:57 |
| duanedesign | karni: yeah that is the way i tr to look at it | 23:57 |
| duanedesign | karni: so I guess you have gotten a fair understanding of the syncdarmon code? | 23:58 |
| karni | duanedesign: I'm just getting used to Natty. Hitting the 'command' key to switch workspaces and turning on random things from the fancy bar on the left side. | 23:58 |
| karni | duanedesign: Mostly in January and February when I wrote it in Java. During GSoC it was more of a really basic sync, and in Jan/Feb I wanted it go to full fledge. | 23:59 |
| duanedesign | putting your favorute apps in the top 10 spaces is noce. Then you can hit Super + <1-10> to open the app | 23:59 |
| karni | duanedesign: heh, and now we've turned to REST. But it's really awesome, too bad we didn't have it 2-3 months earlier. | 23:59 |
