syn-ackfor\01:24
syn-ackhrm01:24
syn-ackso chalcedony which version of Ubuntu are you running, out of curiosity?01:24
chalcedony10.0401:24
chalcedonysyn-ack, i haven't been sure about upgrading so i stayed with lts01:25
syn-ackhrm01:25
syn-ackthis is kind of a hard call but I can tell you that 11.04 runs very nicely thus far01:26
chalcedonythen maybe i will01:26
chalcedony:)01:26
chalcedonybut for now, can we fix my mail?01:26
syn-ackI honestly don't know how to go about that. To me, it sounds like there01:28
syn-acks  an issue with the JSP engine01:28
micahgchalcedony: what's the bug?01:28
syn-ackHer email wont attach files in either Firefox or Opera01:29
chalcedonymicahg, when i try to attach to mail (yahoo mail) but other attachments as well, it attaches the last item in the file list01:29
syn-ackThe last time I had her run a stack trace on it and it suddenly "fixed" its self01:29
chalcedonymy znc.conf or xhcat.conf usually01:29
micahgchalcedony: is that a multiple select box?01:30
chalcedonyi highlight the proper file and the thing actually scrolls upward .. weird to watch01:30
chalcedonya what?01:30
micahgoh, that was a bug in nautilus or gtk I thought?01:31
syn-ackA box which lets the user select either one or multiple files.01:31
syn-ackmicahg, I think you're right on that, but iirc, Opera isn't a GTK based browser01:31
chalcedonynot that i'm aware of, i just want it to select one file, never got it to do more01:32
syn-ackiirc, its QT based which allows it to complaint with dual licensing01:32
micahgbug 55867401:33
ubot4Launchpad bug 558674 in gtk+2.0 (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "Open file dialog malfunctions in lucid (affects: 23) (dups: 1) (heat: 108)" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55867401:33
chalcedonyi was guessing nautilus before .. but no proof01:33
chalcedonyyeah01:34
syn-ackhrm, it seems that is your bug chalcedony01:34
bcurtiswxmicahg, you've recovered already from the travel?01:35
micahgbcurtiswx: what gives you that impression?  I got back 2 hrs ago01:35
bcurtiswxyou're online :P01:36
bcurtiswxj/m01:36
bcurtiswx2 hours, did you have a late flight?01:36
chalcedonyi wonder why i never saw any mails about the bug01:36
micahgbcurtiswx: no, I left sun morning01:36
chalcedonybut i'm really glad people noticed it besides me01:37
bcurtiswxmicahg, glad you made it home safely :)01:37
micahgchalcedony: the problem is that it's fixed, but we don't have the commit to backport01:37
micahgbcurtiswx: thanks :)01:38
chalcedonyso what do i have to do micahg ?01:38
micahgchalcedony: idk, if you have time, you could review the commits between GTK 2.20 and 2.22 and see if anything pops out01:38
chalcedonyWhere's this so-called fix?01:40
bcurtiswxif you're looking for commits that fix a bug, after some searching with no luck you should ask upstream01:40
micahgbcurtiswx: problem is this is 2 releases ago, upstream won't care01:40
chalcedonyso the only fix is to upgrade ubuntu?01:41
bcurtiswxoh, wow yea...01:41
bcurtiswxso you're looking for an SRU i would assume?01:42
micahgbcurtiswx: I think it would be nice, but someone has to find the fix first to see how intrusive it is :)01:42
syn-ackchalcedony, seems like it01:43
micahgI added a lucid nomination, so someone should look at it01:43
syn-ackSeeing how it *is* an LTS though, I find it funny that the commit hadn't been added01:43
bcurtiswxsyn-ack, why funny?01:44
chalcedonyits supposed to receive ongoing support01:45
micahgsyn-ack: someone needs to find the commit, there was no hint upstream, just a note that it's fixed, there are probably several thousand commits to review between 2.20 and 2.2201:45
bcurtiswx^^ +101:45
micahgif someone finds the commit and it's not incredibly intrusive, we can try to SRU it01:45
syn-ackmicahg, That's a point I hadn't considered01:46
micahgchalcedony: BTW, is it the same in Firefox 4?01:46
micahgin theory it shouldn't matter, but I thought I'd sask01:46
micahg*ask01:46
chalcedonymicahg, i have firefox 4 and yes01:47
micahgchalcedony: ok01:47
micahgchalcedony: is that from the firefox-stable PPA?01:47
chalcedonyi got it from the firefox website01:47
chalcedonyif that answers your question?01:47
micahgoh, do you mind trying the one from the firefox-stable PPA?01:48
bcurtiswxchalcedony, there is always a risk for PPA's but the ffx-stable one is well maintained01:48
micahgI wonder if it has to do with the build itself01:48
* micahg seems to recall this bug on lucid though01:49
syn-ackI never ran lucid long enough to notice it01:49
chalcedonyi never had this problem before 10.0401:49
syn-ackI didn't really care for lucid, tbh01:49
micahgright, it seems to just exist in gtk 2.2001:49
micahgthere was only 1 point release for that branch and we have it01:50
chalcedonybcurtiswx, are you asking me to download firefox from somewhere else?01:51
bcurtiswxmicahg had mentioned using the firefox-stable PPA01:51
micahgchalcedony: can you pastebin the output of ldd /path/to/firefox-bin?01:52
micahgchalcedony: replacing the path to firefox-bin in your firefox folder01:52
chalcedonyoh i see01:53
syn-ackhrm02:05
syn-ackI don't seem to have a firefox-bin02:05

mvobdmurray: only in natty-updates/ at some point16:49
bdmurraymvo: and that's were update-manager checks in maverick when doing a release upgrade?16:50
mvobdmurray: not yet, but once I update changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release - I see that u-m is now part of -updates so its safe to update16:50
* mvo does that now16:51
bdmurraymvo: should that also be updated from 10.04.1 to 10.04.2?16:53

ohsixwhat package generates /etc/mailname? googleearth-package is failing if it's not present and i don't remember having this problem before i did a fresh 10.10 install18:00
micahgohsix: I don't see that file in any package from lucid on18:04
ohsixhm18:05
ohsixit should have "krang" in it, but i don't know why it went away, or why the googleearth-package thing fails without it, it's looking for a hostname to put on the package it creates; but if you set them on the commandline it still tries to read it18:06
ohsixbtw, where did you search? i should probably keep that handy18:06
ohsixit's almost for sure a generated name by some package, not something in a package, i think18:07
micahgohsix: ah, well, if it's under apt control on a previous system, you can use dpkg -S /etc/mailname18:07
ohsixyea that old system isn't around anymore; i'll just generate it18:08
ohsixi think whatever changed that brought in postfix instead of bsd-mailx for the default-mta stuff might have something to do with it18:08
ohsixshould i file a bug against googleearth-package for at least not depending on the package that creates /etc/mailname (if it even exists anymore)18:11
micahgohsix: sure18:12
ohsixok thanks18:12
ohsixit's surprisingly intensive to build the package18:31

JoshuaLHow does one go when a bug report is marked as wont fix because upstream does not want it but when you have valid reasons for ubuntu to include it?20:11
RedSingularityjibel: I had this user make a new report.  Its an issue I have never run into before, any idea what the issue may be?  bug 78354920:12

yofelJoshuaL: then the ubuntu task shouldn't be Won't Fix and add a patch to the package20:15
JoshuaLyofel, hmm ok, i have never written a patch but might be a good thing to learn, its about bug 401331 (power outage caused my system to crash + losing the file I was working on because I did not save it)20:17
ubot4Launchpad bug 401331 in gedit (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "Enable Autosave files option by default (affects: 1) (heat: 5)" [Wishlist,Won't fix] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40133120:17
yofelJoshuaL: if that's an option, why not just enable it?20:18
yofelinstead of changing the default20:18
JoshuaLyofel, i as a user expect by default some sort of file recovery from a text editor, office applications already do so20:19
micahgJoshuaL: Ubuntu is unlikely to carry a patch for this as the desktop team is striving to reduce patches, maybe try to get a patch accepted in Debian, although that was 2 yrs ago, you could ask the desktop team if they'd consider it20:23
yofeldepends, there are editors that do that, and ones that don't. Talk to pedro_ when you see him, he set it to Won't Fix20:23
* yofel uses VIM usually which has crash recovery20:23
JoshuaLmicahg, yofel thanks for the input20:25

roadmrHey, could someone help me with bug 772820? I think it should be moved to debconf, and maybe (if the bug discussion already provides enough info) it should be triaged and importance: low (although it blocks upgrading to natty, it seems like an unusual configuration)20:38

kblinwhat component do I need to file a bug against if I can't update ubuntu from an IPv6-only network?22:48

charlie-tcathere is a bug for that, but I don't have the number.22:54
