jasoncwarnerready for meeting?00:01
jasoncwarnerhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Meeting/2011-05-1700:01
jasoncwarnerprobably quickest of the cycle!00:02
RAOFOk!00:02
RAOFI'm now both in Hobart *and* awake!  It's awesome!00:03
jasoncwarnereveryone should be quite busy with blueprints and what not...anything else that someone would like to talk about?00:03
hvrodrigo_: is there an early fix to the gnome-setting-daemon + libgnomekbd7 issue available, probably in a ppa?00:03
jasoncwarneranyone blocked from getting blueprints done on anything?00:03
hv!seen rodrigo_00:03
ubot2I have no seen command00:03
hvpoor you!00:04
hv!useful00:05
ubot2Factoid 'useful' not found00:05
jasoncwarnerok...I take it the non-response is a sign that everyone's blueprints are going swimmingly and it is sunny out where people are!00:05
RAOFWell, it's not sunny out.00:05
jasoncwarnerwell, hobart00:05
RAOFBut there's nothing blocking blueprints :)00:05
jasoncwarner;)00:05
hv!useful bot00:05
ubot2Factoid 'useful bot' not found00:05
* hv fails at bot abuse00:06
RAOFhv: You'll find “/msg ubot2 $STUFF” to be a more polite way of abusing the bot :)00:07
* hv apologizes to the bot and the readers of this channel00:08
RAOFDid anyone else have problems getting all the way home?  I was delayed in Hong Kong for 4 hours while they fixed the plane, which then made me miss my connecting flight to Hobart and so got stuck in Melbourne for 10 hours.00:09
jasoncwarnerok...sounds like we done [END MEETING] be back in 1500:10
jasoncwarnerRAOF: to answer your question...my flights were uneventful, but long00:26
jasoncwarnerthough, I know robert has a story to tell! Poor guy.00:26
RAOFAs well as being sick?  Sucky!00:27
bryceh_bummer robert, plane travel while sick sucks00:45
bryceh_RAOF, the portland contingent had an uneventful flight, despite having to leave at crack of dawn00:46
bryceh_jasoncwarner, RAOF, regarding blueprints yep got them done yesterday.00:47
bryceh_leaving the wayland one for you to write up RAOF.  ;-)00:47
RAOF:)00:47
bryceh_(but I guess that one's going to be low priority)00:48
RAOFYup.00:48
jasoncwarnerbryceh_: cool...anything surprising? Anything you think we won't get through?00:50
bryceh_jasoncwarner, there's a few tasks in the X tools blueprint that are kind of stretch goals, we'll see00:52
bcurtiswxhttps://code.launchpad.net/~bcurtiswx/ubuntu/oneiric/gnome-icon-theme/gnome-icon-theme-3.0.0/+merge/6133700:52
bcurtiswxfor oneiric, thanks :)00:52
bcurtiswxi will never try to get through JFK with a 1.5 hour layover ever again..00:53
* TheMuso checks in to see if anything important was mentioned in the meeting, and finds that there was not.01:36
RAOFNo.  Just me bitching about air travel :)01:40
bcurtiswxoh, cool. I interrupted the meeting? :)01:42
TheMusoRAOF: Yeah I read about your delays, that really sucks.01:42
TheMusoMy trip home was uneventful fortunately.01:42
RAOFThat's good.01:43
RAOFYeah.  At least Qantas booked everyone who missed the Hobart flight a day room at a hotel.01:44
RAOFThat was nice and quiet.  And had actual food for lunch.01:44
cyphermoxjasoncwarner: hey01:49
jasoncwarnerhey cyphermox01:49
jasoncwarnerhow are things in canananananda01:49
cyphermoxheh, things are okay.01:50
cyphermoxthe broken pipe is definitely fixed now, tomorrow morning I'll have an insurance lady visit to assess the damage01:51
cyphermoxin the meantime I got evo to work :)01:51
jasoncwarnernice!01:51
bcurtiswx3.0?01:51
cyphermoxyeah01:51
bcurtiswxsweet!01:51
cyphermoxI like how the error messages and notifications are more visible and clearer01:51
RAOFOooh, time for me to upgrade to oneiric I see :)01:55
cyphermoxRAOF: is it?01:56
cyphermoxI meant to ask, I'm seeing weird redrawing issues on intel right now01:56
RAOFIn oneiric, or natty?01:56
cyphermoxoneiric01:56
* RAOF doesn't currently have an actual oneiric desktop install, so…01:56
cyphermoxstuff gets painted on the screen fine, but not removed .. e.g you display the dash and it won't go away01:57
cyphermoxah. I guess there's nothing new in X land that landed either?01:57
jbichain Unity?01:57
cyphermoxmaybe there was...01:57
cyphermoxjbicha: yes01:58
RAOFNothing much that I'm aware of; maybe kernel?01:58
bcurtiswxhi jbicha01:58
* TheMuso will upgrade to oneiric at alpha 1.01:58
jbichayou could see if gnome shell is any better01:58
bcurtiswxTheMuso, right now oneiric is usable... keyword: "right now"01:58
TheMuso8...or not, alpha 1 is June 2nd, a few weeks away.01:59
bryceh_I see the failed redrawing on the background01:59
TheMusoIn any case, it won't be till next week.01:59
jbichaI got vinagre 3 mostly packaged...but gtk-vnc isn't working right01:59
bryceh_I upgraded two of my desktops to oneiric01:59
* TheMuso is just on to do blueprint stuff, and then off again for the rest of his holiday.01:59
jbichabcurtiswx: howdy01:59
bryceh_779174  openjdk-6 - ca-certificates-java broken by multiarch [FIXED]01:59
bryceh_784217  linux(?)  - console text corrupted on first boot on a KVM01:59
bryceh_784216  udev(?)   - /run/udev not writable error message01:59
bryceh_784214  apport    - Failed to run dump_acpi_tables.py invoked via ssh01:59
bryceh_784209  unity-2d  - background fails to redraw (reproduced on 2 machines)01:59
bryceh_those are the bugs I ran into doing it02:00
bryceh_cyphermox, I think my bug 784209 corresponds to what you're seeing, however that was with unity-2d02:00
ubot2Launchpad bug 784209 in unity-2d "Background fails to redraw" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/78420902:00
bryceh_I tested both the .38 and .39 kernels, same behavior.  X hasn't changed, so guessing it's compiz or unity02:01
cyphermoxyeah02:02
bryceh_well, I uploaded one of cnd's fixes to xserver today but that was for multitouch stuff, and fairly minor02:02
cyphermoxhere it shouldn't be unity-2d, anyway02:02
cyphermoxbryceh_: well, i checked and saw X, but it's two hours ago according to the queue page, and I updated ~5 hours ago02:03
bcurtiswxis there anything changing in the lpi patches this cycle, or are we just focusing on getting them working  ?02:03
bryceh_lpi?02:03
bcurtiswxlaunchpad integration i believe is what it stands for02:04
bryceh_ok, that's what I thought02:04
bryceh_don't know; wasn't aware of breakages, but I don't really follow that work much02:04
jbichaI wonder if Get Help Online should redirect to askubuntu instead of answers.LP.net but that's above my paygrade02:04
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: you might need to update lpi patches to use liblaunchpad-integration-3.0-dev?02:05
bryceh_jbicha, I think it'd be a good idea02:05
cyphermoxindeed02:05
bcurtiswxcyphermox, ah yes you would probably be correct02:05
cyphermoxdepends if it should build with gtk302:05
cyphermoxoops, seems like e-d-s was synced instead of e-d-s3.02:08
bcurtiswxstandards is 3.9.2 now ?02:16
micahgbcurtiswx: yup02:17
bcurtiswxmicahg, thx02:17
=== hallyn is now known as hallyn_afk
bcurtiswxanyone remember from one of the desktop roundtables, for the GNOME3 transition we were going to take the GNOME3 PPA and build those versions (3.0.x) or can I start a 3.1.x on top of the GNOME3 PPA Work ?02:32
bcurtiswxwell it was the GTK3/GNOME3 session to be exact02:33
RAOFBah!  Launchpad blueprints doesn't play nicely with accidental ctrl-w!02:42
bcurtiswxdep breakage with libnotify4-dev, its looking for -0ubuntu2 but -0ubuntu4 is installed02:42
bcurtiswxlooking for -0ubuntu2 of libnotify but -ubuntu4 is the only available02:42
jbichaI just went ahead and removed libnotify4-dev, at the moment I don't need it and maybe it's not needed anymore02:48
bryceh_RAOF, :-/02:48
jbichawe'll find out the next time I try to package something that needs it02:48
RAOFbryceh_: Tomboy it is!02:48
bcurtiswxjbicha, seahorse needs it02:54
bcurtiswxthere's dep issues, i'll see if i can bring it up to appropriate people tomorrow02:54
bcurtiswxim too tired to think that long anymore02:54
bcurtiswxlol02:54
jbichaah, that's important02:54
bcurtiswxi think the gist of it is that  libpurple0 needs a dep bump on libperl02:55
bcurtiswxand to be rebuilt02:55
bcurtiswxah seems it has02:57
bcurtiswxbut the build fails02:57
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: jbicha: re libnotify, isn't it libnotify-dev now, not libnotify4-dev, it was renamed03:02
cyphermox(or maybe it was accidental), the fact is, libnotify4-dev is at -0ubuntu2, libnotify-dev is at -0ubuntu4 ;)03:03
bcurtiswxcyphermox, thanks :)03:16
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: afaict libnotify-dev is correct, and matches debian. I noticed there was a similar issue like that for libgweather but I think seb128 has already fixed it03:17
bcurtiswxyes it looks fixed, packages just have to be updated for that change03:17
cyphermoxyup03:18
bcurtiswxcyphermox, you use quilt ?03:18
cyphermoxI can see it's correctly named libgweather-3-dev and stuch03:18
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: yes03:18
bcurtiswxor bzr bd-do ?03:18
cyphermoxboth03:18
bcurtiswxwhen i'm done with the bd-do how do i make sure my changes are saved03:18
cyphermoxbzr bd-do; quilt push -a, etc03:18
cyphermoxexit 0 to make sure it's saved03:19
cyphermoxexit 1 to cancel your changes03:19
bcurtiswxcyphermox, thx :)03:19
cyphermoxonly what's in debian/ gets copied03:19
cyphermoxthe you'll still need to bzr add new patches and things like that03:19
bcurtiswxno new patches, just fixes to them03:26
bcurtiswxseahorse is building now, hopefully no fails03:27
bcurtiswxif anyone is feeling up to sponsoring into oneiric03:33
bcurtiswxhttps://code.launchpad.net/~bcurtiswx/ubuntu/oneiric/seahorse/3.1.1-0ubuntu1/+merge/6134403:33
bcurtiswxgnome-icon-theme from the ~gnome3-team GNOME3 PPA can be merged too since it's the most recent03:40
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: I think you missed a conflict in debian/changelog03:59
bcurtiswxcyphermox, which?03:59
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: https://code.launchpad.net/~bcurtiswx/ubuntu/oneiric/seahorse/3.1.1-0ubuntu1/+merge/61344 complains about lines in debian/changelog, versions 2.90* and 3.0* vs. 2.32.0-0ubuntu2 and 2.32.0-0ubuntu304:01
bcurtiswxcyphermox, i took the changelog from the gnome3 PPA, maybe thats where i went wrong04:02
cyphermoxah I see04:03
bcurtiswxso the proper thing to do is?04:03
cyphermoxnotice the <<<<< TREE marker, you'll want to move the entries for 2.32.0-0ubuntu3 to below the changelog entries you added04:03
cyphermoxseems like it may have been because the stuff from the GNOME3 ppa was started before -0ubuntu3 was uploaded04:04
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: you just want to properly sort the versions and remove the <<<<, =====, and >>>>> lines04:05
bcurtiswxi didn't get a <<< TREE stuff04:06
bcurtiswxlemme think for a sec tho04:06
bcurtiswxoh i see, on the merge proposal04:07
bcurtiswxthe diff has conflicts04:08
bcurtiswxhow do I fix that?04:08
bcurtiswxi know how to fix the TREE stuff, but is there a special way i can do it in the merge review?04:08
cyphermoxohh, right, that wouldn't be on your tree04:09
cyphermoxyes04:09
cyphermoxmerge lp:~ubuntu-desktop/seahorse/ubuntu back into your branch and you should be good (e.g. bzr merge lp:~ubuntu-desktop/seahorse/ubuntu)04:10
cyphermoxactually no, I'm wrong04:10
cyphermoxactually yes, that's exactly what you need to do ;)04:15
bcurtiswxlol, what is it?? :P04:15
cyphermoxsorry, I had to try it to be sure04:15
cyphermoxbzr merge lp:~ubuntu-desktop/seahorse/ubuntu04:15
cyphermoxthat adds 2.32.0-0ubuntu3 to your branch, with all the changes referenced in that changelog entry04:15
bcurtiswxOK, fixing04:19
bcurtiswxcyphermox, fixed04:22
cyphermoxbcurtiswx: if I may nitpick, the Vcs-Bzr field in debian/control and debian/control.in also seems wrong, I think it should point to the branches under ~ubuntu-desktop, not ~gnome3-team, once merged, i would also have written the changelog entries about patches differently, but since I can't merge your branch, I'll let someone else bug you about stuff like this ;)04:25
cyphermoxI guess the patch 91_ didn't apply?04:26
bcurtiswxah, yes since this was gnome3 i ddin't even think to change that04:26
bcurtiswxcyphermox, the 91_ patch was a git pull, which is in it now.  It also failed completely on attempt to push which hinted that it was already in upstream04:26
cyphermoxyeah, cool04:27
cyphermoxplease mention that you drop it in changelog then :)04:27
cyphermoxI fail!04:28
cyphermoxsorry, I didn't see the entry04:28
cyphermoxthat's probably an indication that it's late enough for me to go to bed ;)04:28
bcurtiswxno big deal it's really late for me too04:29
bcurtiswxthe VCZ-BZR was updated and mentioned in the changlog04:30
bcurtiswxand pushed, ready for review/merge again04:30
cyphermoxcool04:30
bcurtiswxugh and i can't type.. LOL04:31
bcurtiswxvzr-bzr..04:31
* cyphermox goes to sleep04:31
bcurtiswxme as well04:32
bcurtiswxnite everyone04:32
pittiGood morning05:21
pittiugh, oneiric is starting to look really weird05:21
cdbspitti: yep, exactly05:24
pittihey cdbs05:24
cdbspitti: That's because Unity sn't able to read settings from the new gnome-settings-daemon05:25
cdbspitti: That's what I warned of yesterday05:25
pitticdbs: nice job with porting checkbox!05:25
cdbsthanks pitti05:25
pitti  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/checkbox_gtk/hyper_text_view.py", line 78, in _motion05:25
pitti    x, y, _ = window.get_pointer()05:25
pittiValueError: too many values to unpack05:25
pittihm, I get this a lot05:25
cdbsThat came in the old checkbox as well, I suppose?05:25
cdbsEven I get it a lot, but it doesn't seem to hinder any functionality (as of my testing)05:26
pittiperhaps05:26
pittibut gdk_window_get_pointer() has three returns05:26
pittix, y, mask05:26
pittiso you should probably do get_pointer()[:2]05:26
pittior (x, y, mask) = ...05:26
cdbspitti: okay, thanks05:26
cdbswill push a branch for that today05:26
pitticheers05:26
pittibut nice to see so much gnome 3 stuff being in already05:27
cdbspitti: To get Oneiric nice again, we need to 1) Fix nux FTBFS 2) Fix unity ftbfs 3) Get Unity work with the new gnome-settings-daemon05:27
cdbsI'd help with 2 and 3, but 1 is too complicated, from what I've seen05:27
pittiI wonder why empathy already looks bad, it's still 2.3205:27
pitti2.34, but all the same05:27
pitticdbs: sounds like a plan05:28
cdbspitti: GTK2 apps look bad, because GTK2 can't get settings out of gnome-settings-daemon05:28
pittiI'm still untangling the gtk3/glade/glade-3/vte FTBFS and dependency stack, once that's done I can help out with more05:28
pittiah, right05:28
cdbswaiting for didrocks to come so that I could ask him to sponsor patch on bug #745392 which fixes the nux FTBFS05:41

Dr_Heckle10.04 LTS: Just resumed from hibernation (went quit well other than) & my cursor was not being drawn (still "existed" & moved, just not drawn) this was "fixed" when I started up X-Chat... For future reference what is the name of the program that is responsible for drawing the cursor? (from "man -k cursor" > "XFreeCursor (3)      - manipulate cursors" is this it?)07:49
Dr_Heckle:/ quite*07:50
RAOFDr_Heckle: This isn't the right place for bug reports :).  And it's the X server that draws the cursor; there isn't really a separate program.  From your description I'd guess that the cursor sprite wasn't preserved properly over hibernate/resume, so it was invisible until something set a different sprite.07:55
Dr_Heckleas this is a 1st time I wasn't trying to make a bug report, i "figured" it was something along those lines, Thx for pointing me to X07:57
RAOFOf course, the problem will probably be in the kernel driver :)07:58
RAOFBecause *all* X problems now are basically kernel bugs :)07:58

chrisccoulsoni'm thinking of buying a new machine this week08:17
pittiif we do this automatically without proof that it was e. g. monitors.xml which caused the breakage, then we certainly shouldn't touch it without asking08:17

didrockschrisccoulson: apparently, got a long (and so needed?) night :) excellent otherwise, thanks! You?08:20
RAOFpitti: I agree with the monitors.xml thingy; my understanding of that was that it'd be one of the “would you like to try $FOO to fix things” options of xdiagnose, rather than done by default.08:21

GunnarHjpitti: Since it's a fix of a Natty regression, I think it should be SRUed into Natty as well. (Also the Lucid and Maverick backports need to be updated as soon as a backporter has approved those MPs.)08:23

pittiseb128: I'm great, thanks!09:03
pittigot the gtk+3.0/glade/glade-3/vte chain resolved for good09:03

pittiFTR, svn-buildpackage is a pain in the arse09:04
pitti(or svn in general)09:04
didrockspitti: hum, let me check why you didn't review the session management one then, I should have done something wrong09:05

seb128pitti, great work!09:06
seb128pitti, didn't we say we need to check what happens to custom widgets for glade3?09:08
pittiseb128: ah, I misunderstood then; I wasn't even aware that glade supports custom widgets09:09
* pitti reopens then09:09
pittiseb128: I clarified the WI to say "for custom widgets"09:09
seb128it's not frequently use but still I want to check09:09
seb128thanks09:09

seb128pitti, do you ever sleep? syncs at 6am is early!09:12
pittiseb128: I get up at 6, yes :)09:12
seb128pitti, btw I didn't accept the gvfs binaries from the sync yesterday to avoid upgrade conflicts09:13
pittiI went to bed at 10 pm09:13
pittiseb128: ah, good; 1.8.1 should be fine, though09:13
seb128right09:13
pittiseb128: I'll wait for armel to finish and then NEW then09:13
seb128ok09:14
seb128btw as a channel notice, we have quite some sponsoring requests pending on version09:17
seb128if some people can do 1 or 2 today we can clean the backlog09:17
didrockswill do some once my local build finishes09:20

pittididrocks: cdbs pointed to FTBFS fixes for nux and unity, I guess these are "your" two? :-)09:35
pittiseb128: ok if I grab seahorse?09:36
seb128pitti, sponsoring? sure ;-)09:37
pittiseb128: it updates to 3.1 already, but I'll test it properly09:37
pittibcurtiswx: hm, seems you didn't merge with Debian along the way?09:37
didrocks09:39:34          cdbs | didrocks: Hi, it seems GCC 4.6 ftbfss have been fixed in both nux and Unity?09:37
didrockspitti: I understood that it doesn't FTBFS anymore09:37
seb128bcurtiswx, thanks for the update but could you start by going to 3 and not 3.1 for the updates you do?09:37
didrockspitti: the yorba guys made a patch a month ago, but as the trunk changed a lot, I think that the dx team have to do a review09:38
didrockspitti: I'll try to rebuild unity in a pbuilder just to confirm it's fixed09:38
seb128pitti, you should probably send it back to Needs Work and ask for proper merge and use of the stable serie09:38
pittiseb128: just done09:38

cdbsdidrocks: The rebuild, what was the outcome?09:53
didrockscdbs: still building in my pbuilder right now09:54
* Sweetshark is timezoned again by seeing who is online and awake and guessing their locsl times ...09:57
cdbsdidrocks: I'd like to get Unity working on GTK3, so that it takes care and uses GTK3 theme defaults instead of GTK2 ones. I have a branch which makes Unity build well with GTK3, but still its taking the theming settings from GTK2. Do you have an idea of what all needs to be changed in Unity to make it run well with the new GNOME?10:01
didrockscdbs: maybe, wait for the next SRU first (next Tuesday) before thinking of merging it10:02
didrockscdbs: well, we will have both theming anyway and dx is building a gate between them10:03
cdbsdidrocks: okay, nice. welcome news. Will wait for another week and then get back to you on this10:03
didrockscdbs: ensure that nobody else is working on it as well on #ayatana btw :)10:03
cdbsdidrocks: hmm :)10:04
didrockscdbs: it's not the case AFAIK, but better to avoid duplication of an awesome work ;)10:04
cdbsdidrocks: I really am not able to understand but the GTK3 port is just a 200 line diff!10:05
didrockscdbs: yeah, it's very small as most of the work was done to be GTK3 compatible10:05
didrocksalso compiz (the decorator I think) would be a nice target10:05
cdbsthe only change was needed to correct those _window->window into gtk_widget_get_window10:05
cdbsdidrocks: yup, the decorator needs a port10:06
didrocksright, because of the gseal10:06
didrockscdbs: unity built successfully FYI, trying nux now10:12
cdbs:)10:13
didrocksnot sure why it FTBFS previously, we did any action for that and it seemed to be an unity/nux issue10:17
seb128vuntz, hey10:31
seb128vuntz, your versions-stable-extras seems to not track stable10:31
seb128i.e gdl or seed have 3.1 versions10:31
didrockscdbs: nux is failing to build10:32
cdbs:(10:32
cdbsdidrocks: There's a patch fixing that, on some bug10:33
didrocksthe one from adam?10:33
cdbsdidrocks: yes10:33
didrockscdbs: did you try on latest nux trunk?10:33
cdbsdidrocks: Looks like my configure was configured to pass -fpermissive by default10:34
cdbsdidrocks: and hence it passed10:34
didrockscdbs: hum, ok, so I'll try to convince upstream to have our flags by default :)10:35
cdbsdidrocks: no, that's not the proper way to fix it :)10:35
cdbsdidrocks: Why not sponsor the patch?10:36
cdbsit makes more sense to do that rather than work-around the failure10:36
didrockscdbs: I meant, upstream should use the ubuntu flags which are more restrictive than their by default10:37
cdbsdidrocks: which upstream? nux?10:37
didrocksthat will enforce them discovering this issue and sponsor the patch10:37
didrockscdbs: right10:37
cdbsgot it then, I thought you were amongst those who worked on nux10:38
didrocksyeah, but for this cycle, we try to get a more restrictive upstream/downstream separation10:38
didrockscdbs: are you interested in proposing a branch that ensure the default flags used in unity/nux are the same than the one in oneiric?10:40
cdbsdidrocks: Yes I can, but they need to have a reason to accept it :/10:41
cdbsdidrocks: It'd be easy, just add -Werror=permissive to the thing10:41
didrockscdbs: well, I'll make sure they will accept it ;) but anyway, I mean, doing a review of all flags where it's different, not only permissive10:42
vuntzseb128: oh?10:42
vuntzseb128: ah, hrm10:43
seb128vuntz, hey ;-) can you fix it? ;-)10:43
vuntzseb128: yeah, there's no real branch handling there10:43
vuntzseb128: the issue is that this branch data is usually maintained by the release team10:44
seb128vuntz, which is an issue because...?10:46
vuntzseb128: because everything in extras is everything that the release team doesn't deal with10:46
vuntzso that means we need to maintain that data ourselves10:46
seb128vuntz, I guess I don't know enough about how your lists are built to understand the issue but let me know if I can help in some way to maintain the datas or if there is a way for me to fix wrong series tracking10:48
seb128if not I will just put overrides on our version side10:48
pittiI'm off for a bit for lunch and some errands, I need to buy an iron saw10:49
vuntzfor stable-extras, we simply look at the available releases on ftp.gnome.org for all tarballs that are not in stable and take the latest ones10:49
vuntzthat means that stable-extras won't have gnome-shell, for instance (since it's in stable)10:50
vuntzbut for gdl (not mentioned in stable because not mentioned in the release team sets), we simply take the latest version10:51
seb128vuntz, hum, ok, I see10:52
vuntzseb128: obviously, we can maintain the information about branches10:53
vuntzI'm just unsure if doing that ourselves, in a reactive way is good enough10:53
seb128well, who is using those version lists out of distros?10:54
seb128they don't really need to be "reactive" I guess10:54
vuntzI guess it's mostly distros10:54
seb128we can just fix issues when we spot some10:54

pitti kenvandine: it was uploaded without -v, so it escaped -changes@ and /+changes14:07
kenvandineyeah14:07
doctormomterry: Yes I expected that to be the case, the recommends was just doing weird things. I should probably try and steal the upstream for the clutter project and apply the patch I made.14:07
chrisccoulsonpitti, oh, i didn't realise we ship a load of firefox languages that upstream don't even ship :/14:12
chrisccoulsonactually14:12
chrisccoulsonhow can that be possible?14:12
chrisccoulsonhmmmm, i think mozilla removed some languages in firefox 514:12
chrisccoulsonweird14:12
pittichrisccoulson: for 4.0 I just got them from the upstream download page14:12
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, i realised after i pressed enter :)14:13
chrisccoulsonso, it seems some languages have been removed from the shipped-locales file in firefox 5 (and don't appear on the download page), but they are re-added again in firefox 614:13
chrisccoulsoni wonder if that's a bug :/14:13
pittimaybe translators just weren't fast enough for 5?14:13
pittibut they can certainly still catch up?14:14
chrisccoulsoni only noticed because i saw my control file shrink when i refreshed the list of languages for the ff5 package14:14
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, that's possible14:14
chrisccoulsonpitti - oh - http://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-beta/rev/2b327521641314:15
chrisccoulsonno comment though14:15

chrisccoulsonand i'm going to upload 5 to oneiric this week14:16
* pitti thought that 4 was current, at least that's what is in oneiric14:16
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, 4 is the current stable. 5 is the current beta (although it's not been officially pushed out to beta testers yet)14:17
chrisccoulsonand 6 is nightly14:17
micahgchrisccoulson: you should implement something like I have in thunderbird-locales which makes sure we don't drop packages for empty languages14:17
pitticyphermox: merged your's, but I'll merge with Debian before uploading14:18
pitticyphermox: in hindsight doing that would have been easier, as the patch is already in Debian14:18
=== Cimi_ is now known as Cimi
chrisccoulsonmicahg, yeah, i was going to do that anyway, but i don't need to just yet14:21
micahgchrisccoulson: k, yeah, just needs to be done before the SRU14:21
geserseb128: sorry not yet, got distracted yesterday evening with other things, but I hope to get it done today14:27
seb128geser, ok, thanks14:27
bcurtiswx_pitti: hey, regarding the seahorse update.  We are holding off on 3.1.x until we get all 3.0.x into Oneiric?14:28
seb128bcurtiswx_, correct14:28
pittiwell, even if that particular one works, we still need to merge with Debian14:29
seb128we want to stabilize GNOME3 a bit before adding an new unstability stack14:29
pittiand see which patches are obsolete, which should go upstream, and clean up pointless packaging diff14:29
bcurtiswx_seb128, pitti: OK, thats great. no problems here.  So the only merge request that we are looking for right now are those from the gnome3-team PPA.  Or is there a more automated process in bringing them over from the PPA ?14:30
bcurtiswx_so in my mind, i'm taking the gnome3-ppa packages, (updating to 3.0.x if theres anything newer) through a bzr bd and updating the version in the changelog, then merge requesting those with their respective oneiric LP entries ?14:37
bcurtiswx_the ones that don't require any changes from the gnome3-ppa , would you still want merge requests?14:38
seb128bcurtiswx_, that's not the right way14:40
seb128basically what I do is14:40
seb128- take the ubuntu-desktop vcs14:40
seb128then merge the gnome3-team14:40
seb128then rebase on debian14:40
bcurtiswx_seb128: OK i'll go do that on seahorse.  I will probably have some questions on the process along the way.  Thanks14:42
cyphermoxhey all14:43
bcurtiswx_mornin' cyphermox14:43
cyphermoxmorning ;)14:43
rodrigo_hv, you mean my g-s-d fix, right?14:46
bcurtiswx_seb128: rebaseing with debian not gnome, so where's the location of the debian packages ?14:47
bcurtiswx_packages.debian.org14:48
seb128bcurtiswx_, http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/seahorse.html14:48
bcurtiswx_seb128: thx and we rebase with experimental  or testing?14:49
pittiI usually do something like diff -Nur debianpkg/debian ubuntupkg/debian > d-u.debdiff14:49
pittithen walk through d-u.debdiff and delete irrelevant stuff14:49
pittiand then reapply it on top of the current debian pkg14:49
seb128similar to pitti14:50
seb128I usually copy the debian dir in the vcs14:50
seb128and bzr diff14:50
seb128and revert things where we need our diff14:50
pittiah, I first apply the remaining changes and then copy debian/ back into the ubuntu vcs14:50
seb128then commit when it's cleaned14:50
pittibut should be similar in effect14:50
seb128but will similar workflows14:50
seb128will->well14:50
bcurtiswx_seems like i get to learn something new today14:51
pittididrocks: do we still rely on --prefix in python's python-distutils.mk.in?14:56
didrockspitti: yeah, as there is no better plan for it right now :/14:56
pittididrocks: currently some packages FTBFS because they use python-distutils.mk.in with dh_python2, which crashes on "no such option: --prefix"14:56
didrockshum… we should either make dh_python2 understand or ignore the option14:57
didrocksor detect that we are using pycentral pysupport…14:57
pittifor now I'm going to update cdbs to only supply it for pysupport, is that ok?14:57
didrockspitti: sounds good to me, thanks! :)14:57
pittididrocks: dh_pycentral also doesn't document a --prefix option, though14:57
didrockspitti: yeah, I only supported pysupport IIRC14:58
geserany specific reason why not using dh_python2? <tumbleweed> the equivalent of --prefix in dh_python2 is just to specify the full path to the private directory. Don't know why they didn't use dh_python2 for this in the first place... (2011-05-10 in #ubuntu-devel)15:04

vuntzoh, stupid question15:17
vuntzwhich version of gnome-panel will be in oneiric?15:17
seb128vuntz, 3.n15:17
seb128n being 0 or 215:17
seb128likely 2 if there is no reason to not use it15:17
vuntzseb128: so are you going to drop all old applets?15:17
vuntzor is there anyone working on a module to load them?15:17
seb128vuntz, "old" like using bonobo?15:18
vuntzyes15:19
seb128guess we will15:19
seb128we will drop those I mean15:19
seb128if nobody port them to use the new dbus protocol15:19
vuntzand do you think it's worth the effort to write a module to be able to use them?15:19
seb128we will have unity-3d, unity-2d and gnome-shell as modern desktop, we don't really plan to spend time to maintain a legacy desktop15:19
seb128not really15:20
seb128if people care enough about some applets they should port it to dbus15:20
vuntzok15:21
vuntzthanks15:21
jbichawhich old applets are you talking about?15:22
jbichathere's 20-something included in gnome-panel & gnome-applets that work15:22
vuntzjbicha: bonobo-based applets15:23
vuntzjbicha: gnome-netstatus, for instance15:23
seb128jbicha, you can apt-cache rdepends libpanel-applet2-0 basically15:23
seb128gnome-randr-applet, glunarclock, gnome-pilot, etc15:24
seb128vuntz, we should probably spend efforts moving forward, if things are unmaintained they should be cleaned15:25
seb128if they are useful and maintained they will get ported15:26
seb128cyphermox, ok, can you drop the sync request for e-d-s and update without renaming?15:26
cyphermoxyes, we can15:26
seb128renames break vcs, bugs tracking, etc15:26
cyphermoxit should be straightforward too15:26
seb128seems Josselin say they will rename back once their transition done15:26
jbicharight, for instance, it looks like gnome-pilot has been ported15:27
seb128well it's basically take the debian version, rename the changelog and control entries15:27
seb128cyphermox, thanks15:27
vishvuntz: does System monitor also use bonobo? or does that work in gnome-panel 3.x ?15:28

seb128didrocks, can you review the e-d-s and evo sponsoring requests?15:30
vuntzvish: it's in gnome-applets, so it should work with the new library15:30
vishneat!15:30
didrocksseb128: sure, one sec, looking at the merge proposal15:31
didrockscyphermox: so, not a sync finally?15:31
seb128didrocks, thanks15:31
cyphermoxdidrocks: yes, but renaming the source package to keep it named evolution-data-server, not evolution-data-server315:32
didrockscyphermox: do you have the e-d-s link handy? Only finding evolution right now15:34
cyphermoxno, we only just got to that decision. I'm fixing the branch now15:34
cyphermox(and sorry, I was with the insurance lady before)15:35
didrockscyphermox: no worry :)15:37
didrockscyphermox: is there something decided in the debian vs upstream soname for e-d-s?15:37
seb128didrocks, read #debian-gnome backlog15:37
seb128didrocks, the renaming is basically for easy migration in debian, they will rename it back later on15:38
seb128didrocks, we don't want to get vcs, bug tracker, etc be confused by a source rename for no reason in Ubuntu15:38
didrocksseb128: got it, thanks :)15:40
didrocksand the soname is now upstream15:41
didrockswell in debian I meant15:41
didrocksthanks to bigon :)15:41
didrockscyphermox: some comments on the merge, no blocker though15:48
cyphermoxok15:48
chrisccoulsondoes anyone know who wrote "Evolution takes about 25/30 MB" on http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/meeting/desktop-o-default-email-client/ ?16:08
chrisccoulsoni'd like to know where they got their numbers from :)16:08
pittias we are going to keep eds, that's clearly a gross exaggeration16:09
pittithe "evolution" package is 236 kB16:09
pittiadd some stuff which is only used by the UI and not for eds, we might end up with 1 or 2 MB16:09
pittiwhich is a lot smaller than the 12 MB that tbird requires16:09
cyphermoxnah, Evolution takes 5-6 MB tops if you count evolution and EDS16:10
cyphermox(my guesstimate from last week)16:10
pittiright, but EDS will be kept either way16:11
cyphermoxright, then yeah, it's just a matter of maybe 1-2 MB16:11
cyphermoxdidrocks: https://code.launchpad.net/~mathieu-tl/evolution-data-server/3.0.0-1ubuntu1/+merge/61426 , I messed up and did a debcommit rather than bzr commit though, sorry for the mess in my commit message ;)16:22
didrockscyphermox: let do a quick review in pm16:24
=== hallyn_afk is now known as hallyn
pittichrisccoulson: would it be possible for an XPI to append bookmarks to the default set?16:36
chrisccoulsonpitti - that's not possible at the moment16:36
pittichrisccoulson: i. e. we'd like to keep the standard Ubuntu and Mozilla bookmarks, but a loco team wants to add popular local pages16:36
pittichrisccoulson: is it possible to completely replace them?16:36
chrisccoulsonpitti - oh, we might be able to do that16:36
chrisccoulson(append bookmarks)16:36
pitti(then our loco package build system could just add the standard ones)16:37
dpmhi pitti, we set the deadline for testing the new Natty langpacks as today, so whenever you've got the chance, do you think you could upload the Natty langpacks listed on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/LanguagePackUpdatesQA ? Thanks!16:37
chrisccoulsonbut we definitely can't replace them without rebuilding firefox16:37
pittichrisccoulson: oh, so replacing is harder than appending?16:37
pittichrisccoulson: well, whatever is easier16:37
pittidpm: sure16:37
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, although i've never tested appending bookmarks before16:37
dpmexcellent, thanks pitti16:38
pittidpm: are these bug reports regressions?16:38
pittididrocks: in your French loco images, do you touch bookmarks at all?16:38
chrisccoulsonbut bookmarks are bundled with firefox, and you can only replace them if you do a fully localized rebuild of it16:38
chrisccoulson(ie, there's no way to ship external localized bookmarks, like we can do with searchplugins)16:39
pittichrisccoulson: I guess that's one of the first things a Loco might want to customize16:39
chrisccoulsonyeah, that's going to be pretty hard to solve16:39
didrockspitti: yes, we add the french websites16:39
pittididrocks: how did you do that?16:39
chrisccoulsonthe bookmarks are stored with the default profile data, which is bundled in a big jar file16:39
LLStarkscjwatson, is there a bug number for the oneiric pidgin packaging situation with perl?16:39
didrockspitti: let me show you the script16:40
pittichrisccoulson: for reference, I'm currently drafting https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Oneriric/LocalizedCDImageTools16:40
didrockspitti: we change /etc/firefox/profile/bookmarks.html16:42
pittididrocks: I think /etc/firefox/ was completely abolished with ffox 416:42
micahgLLStarks: there's bug 781520, I don't see another specifically filed16:43
ubot2Launchpad bug 781520 in pidgin "dependency on old libperl5.10" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/78152016:43
didrockspitti: http://paste.ubuntu.com/609577/ and http://paste.ubuntu.com/609578/16:43
pittichrisccoulson: changing the default search engine might be easier? I suppose the loco XPI can change any configuration value?16:43
LLStarksthanks micahg16:43
didrockspitti: hum, interesting, the testers didn't report that issue though16:43
pittididrocks: thanks, that's helpful!16:44
chrisccoulsondidrocks, yeah, changing things in /etc/firefox/profile definitely won't do anything now ;)16:44
pittididrocks: well, it still might work in natty, but I thought chrisccoulson mentioned that /etc/firefox was gone16:44
chrisccoulsonyeah, it's definitely gone16:44
chrisccoulsonall that information lives in ${LIBDIR}/omni.jar now16:44
didrockspitti: the first one is just a wrapper for creating the image, the second one is what is launched inside the chroot16:44
cjwatsonLLStarks: the one above should do, sure16:44
chrisccoulsonand i wouldn't be too happy about people using scripts to edit the contents of that ;)16:44
pittididrocks: right, I was about to ask16:45
didrockschrisccoulson: oh "nice" :/16:45
chrisccoulsondidrocks, it's to reduce startup time ;)16:45
chrisccoulson(so firefox isn't reading a bazillion files off the disk like it used to)16:45
pittichrisccoulson: to avoid that, we want to provide a centralized script which does all the nasty work, so that locos don't have to16:45
didrockspitti: please don't be shocked by the script, it's hackish ***warning***16:46
pittididrocks: that's fine -- that's the point of that spec :)16:46
didrocksI think you will particularly appreciate the "Translation of casper-md5check" part ;)16:47
chrisccoulsonto add bookmarks, you can try editing the distribution.ini we ship (https://wiki.mozilla.org/Distribution_INI_File)16:47
chrisccoulsonbut i've never tested that16:47
pittichrisccoulson: is that path hardcoded?16:47
chrisccoulsonpitti - the distribution.ini?16:47
pittichrisccoulson: we certainly shouldn't edit omni.jar in-place; woudl you recommend that the loco package puts its own omni.jar somewhere with updated default/profile/bookmarks.html, or should we rather use the ini?16:48
chrisccoulsoni would try using the distribution.ini first16:48
pitti(in the former case, firefox would need to be changed to first look into /usr/lib/firefox/ubuntu-l10n.jar, and fall back to /usr/lib/firefox-4.0.1/omni.jar)16:48
pittichrisccoulson: ok, noting that16:48
chrisccoulsonthe omni.jar is pretty much the entire firefox chrome, so it's not something that loco's would generally be building16:49
didrocksdoes it override, or is it just adding?16:49
chrisccoulsondidrocks, only adding, i think16:49
chrisccoulsoni've never tried it though16:49
pittihttps://wiki.mozilla.org/Distribution_INI_File looks useful, thanks!16:49
pittiadding is fine16:49
pittiI'll try that first16:49
didrockschrisccoulson: would be nice to still be able to add them first16:49
didrockslike french people prefers ubuntu-fr.org to ubuntu.com I guess16:50
pittichrisccoulson: in case it doesn't work, do you think that fixing it would be accepted upstream, as they document it?16:50
rodrigo_cyphermox, why did you upgrade e-d-s to 2.91.92 and not 3.0.0?16:50
pittididrocks: we only ship two folders (Firefox and Ubuntu) by default, and no top-level bookmarks; so that might still be acceptable?16:50
cyphermoxrodrigo_: that's an error, it was synced, don't worry about it, I'm working on 3.0.0 right now16:51
rodrigo_cyphermox, ah, ok16:51
didrockspitti: probably, yeah, if it's kept like that (folders and not entries)16:51
didrockspitti: btw, how can I help you on that spec?16:52
pittididrocks: once I'm done with the initial drafting round, I'd like to ask you to review it, correct some mistakes, and perhaps add other things locos are interested in changing16:55
didrockspitti: sure16:55
chrisccoulsondidrocks, i guess i could try distributing our custom bookmarks in distribution.ini rather than patching the default profile data16:55
chrisccoulsonthat could make them easier to localize16:55
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure if there's a technical reason not to do that though16:55
chrisccoulsonperhaps it doesn't support favicons16:56
didrockschrisccoulson: if you can give it a try, let me know about the outcome :)16:56
chrisccoulsonyeah, i don't think it does, which would suck16:56
chrisccoulsonso all the bookmark entries would have a placeholder icon by default16:56
didrocksright, doesn't sound attractive :/16:57
chrisccoulsonyeah. we ship the icon data in the profile to avoid that16:57
pittiah, bummer; but well, good enough as a first step16:57
pittiI fully expect that this will be continuously refined16:57

Laneyseb128: I saw, good stuff!17:10
Laneybtw has anyone talked about doing a gnome3 remix?17:10
seb128still hate to have to upload the binaries on my slow upload :p17:11
seb128Laney, there was some emails on https://lists.launchpad.net/gnome3-team about a team who wanted to do that17:11
Laneycool17:12
seb128Laney, not sure what's the point though17:12
seb128or what do you call "remix"? building an iso with gnome-shell as the default desktop?17:13
Laneyyes17:13
seb128the guys on the list were rather trying to fork the packaging for the GNOME stack17:13
seb128which is not really constructive to do17:13
seb128having a GNOME iso would be nice17:13
Laneyright17:13
Laneydon't know if it would require some stracciatella work though17:14
chrisccoulsonpitti - i'm not sure what to do about the firefox SRU verification. with the exception of 1 bug, i picked the crashes out of http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/ , as people aren't reporting these bugs to launchpad (and i don't think there's a way for me to contact the people who reported the crashes to ask them to test it)17:18
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure there will be much participation to verify them ;)17:19
bcurtiswx_chrisccoulson: * pitti waves good night <-- FYI17:20
chrisccoulsonah ;)17:21
seb128chrisccoulson, usually for those case the verification is "run the new version for a week and check nothing you were using breaks"17:28
chrisccoulsonseb128 - yeah, that should be ok17:29
chrisccoulsoni'm trying to find out if i can get hold of e-mail addresses of submitters ;)17:29
chrisccoulsonb'ah, david-suisse1 is really annoying me17:30
dobeyhrmm17:30
dobeywhat's the plan to deal with apps that don't migrate to gtk 3.0 soon?17:31
* chrisccoulson hides17:31
dobeychrisccoulson: from my question, or from the swiss?17:31
chrisccoulsondobey, your question ;)17:32
chrisccoulsonseeing as i maintain 2 packages that will probably still be using gtk 2 this cycle ;)17:32
dobeychrisccoulson: well, i guess ffox/tbird aren't a big issue here.17:32
dobeyi don't think anyway17:32
dobeythey sort of totally do their own thing anyway17:32
micahgdobey: they are in that we'll need GTK2 on the CD :)17:32
dobeymicahg: yes, but not important for what i'm asking. :)17:33
dobeyu1 for example is in a very odd position, since we provide apps, as well as plug-ins to other apps17:33
dobeyso what i'm really worried about is banshee, etc... where we provide plug-ins17:34
dobeyi'm guessing that if they stay gtk2, and we try to embed gtk3, things will get very unpleasant there17:35
rodrigo_dobey, yeah, crashes if gtk2/3 symbols are detected17:36
dobeyyeah, i've been down the multi-linking road before :)17:36
dobeyand i really need to come up with a sane plan of attack for this, as u1 is totally broken on O right now17:37
rodrigo_dobey, banshee is on gtk2, right, what about rhythmbox?17:37
rodrigo_for nautilus plugin, using gtk3 should be ok, as we have 3.0.0 already in O17:38
dobeyrodrigo_: well, rhythmbox is upstream gnome. so i presume they're already moving if haven't already17:38
dobeyalso not the default, so less of a concern at the moment17:39
dobeyie, i'm happy to break rbox support if i have to, for a while17:39
rodrigo_dobey, right, but not sure there's a gtk3 build yet17:39
rodrigo_not sure though17:39
dobeydon't know17:39
ricotzrodrigo_, there is ;)17:39
rodrigo_ok17:39
dobeyand i know nautilus 3.0 is in already, that's why u1-client is FTBFS :)17:39
rodrigo_so, the problem is banshee then, which is at gtk2, so you can't build the music store widget with gtk3 for both banshee and rhythmbox :(17:40
dobeybut i was thinking of moving code around, to fix that17:40
dobeywell banshee will be gtk3 for O it seems17:40
rodrigo_then you're set for gtk3 :)17:41
dobeynot entirely17:41
dobeybut at least my immediate concern seems to have an answer :)17:42
rodrigo_why not?17:42
dobeybecause i don't even want to begin to think about all the issues that will come up in trying to make everything actually work on gtk317:43
seb128debian has its rhythmbox on gtk317:45
seb128they have a git snapshot17:45
seb128we will get when someone do the merge to oneiric17:46
ricotzseb128, it is in the ppa17:46
seb128ricotz, what about doing a merge request for oneiric? ;-)17:46
ricotzfeel free to review it ;)17:47
seb128ricotz, if you do a merge request we will review it ;-)17:47
ricotzseb128, i dont have the time to prepare it properly :(17:48
seb128ricotz, ok, I guess we will come to it, we go through the updates using the ppa anyway17:53
seb128so work is not lost don't worry17:53
ricotzseb128, alright :)17:56
seb128ricotz, but if you feel like doing some oneiric updates just do it and propose merge requests ;-)18:17
seb128cyphermox, oh btw if you do gnome-bluetooth you can probably comment the indicator patch for now18:18
seb128not sure how libappindicator gtk3 application will play with the gtk2 stack and it might get superseded by the device indicator this cycle18:19
seb128to check with tedg maybe18:19
seb128kenvandine, could you review,sponsor http://code.launchpad.net/~mathieu-tl/geoclue/lp738584/+merge/5792118:19
seb128kenvandine, you are probably the one who know best geoclue there18:19
seb128didrocks, do you think you can claim the gnome-session GNOME3 update? you had work items for gnome-session and rebasing the session system on the upstream version so it would make sense if it was you?18:21
didrocksseb128: I think it will make sense, right, will take some time though18:21
seb128didrocks, -> http://pad.ubuntu-uk.org/oneiric-desktop just drop a note there saying you will do it18:22
seb128didrocks, no hurry, updates will take some weeks to settle anyway18:22
seb128didrocks, thanks18:22
didrocksseb128: ok, dropping a note as being the victim of gnome-session :)18:22
seb128didrocks, 'ci18:22
didrocksseb128: de rien ;)18:23
kenvandineseb128, sure18:24
seb128kenvandine, thanks18:24
ricotzseb128, you probably know, but besides gnome-bluetooth also networkmanager 0.9 is pretty much needed for g-c-c and g-s18:25
seb128ricotz, rodrigo says he has a patch to turn the g-c-c requirement down18:25
ricotzseb128, i think it isnt a good idea to turn it off since it need to go anyway18:26
ricotz*go in anyway18:26

kasztan_85Hi, I accidentally removed the system accounts in the Accounts manager in ubuntu 11.04. After restarting the server does not start X. You can fix it somehow?18:29
seb128kasztan_85, try #ubuntu for user support18:30
seb128ricotz, we want to settle the ui bits for now, there is no really need to get the new n-m controls18:30
seb128the n-m stack is used in i.e kubuntu as well18:31
seb128the indicator patch will need a rebase18:31
ricotzseb128, ok, patching g-c-c could be buggy too, but i see your point18:31
seb128those will take some time18:31
ricotzyeah of course18:31
seb128ricotz, well it's only an UI18:31
seb128it's better to break an ui control than the stack18:31
seb128the old standalone ui works fine18:32
ricotzyes, and the g-c-c ui parts too18:32
ricotzseb128, do you know if the telepathy-glib 0.15 "branch" is considered unstable?18:33
seb128no, ask on #telepathy I guess18:33
ricotz0.14 got a separate branch and 0.14.6 was the last release from there18:33

seb128we will get it to oneiric synced from debian tomorrow18:34
ricotzseb128, it already is18:34

seb128ricotz, it already is what?18:35
ricotzthat is why i asked -- it is already in oneiric18:35

geserseb128_: I've started looking at the pidgin FTBFS and I know what triggers it (patching the configure.ac from 02_lpi.patch triggers a regeneration of the auto* files) but I've no idea why it fails or how to fix it :(19:54
=== seb128_ is now known as seb128
seb128geser, ok, so it's likely the autoreconf run20:01
geserseb128: any ideas how to debug this further? I've tried to diff some Makefiles below finch/libgnt but didn't see any obvious difference that would explain this20:05
seb128not really, what is the error again?20:06
geser*** No rule to make target `../libgnt.la', needed by `irssi.la'.  Stop.20:06
seb128is there a libgnt.la?20:08

seb128what la cleaning?20:17
micahgseb128: emptying dependency_libs last cycle20:18
seb128that shouldn't create any issye20:18
seb128issue20:18
seb128emptying the depends doesn't break anything20:18
micahgright, but maybe something came back in accidentally20:18
seb128that .la is in the pidgin build anyway20:18
gesermicahg: that .la file is part of upstream and an unmodified pidgin from Debian builds fine (even disabling an Ubuntu patch touching configure.ac builds fine then too)20:19
micahggeser: k20:19
ricotzseb128, you probably dont like the idea adding more packages to the ppa, i am thinking about vte, gvfs and d-conf20:37
seb128ricotz, why do you need those?20:37
ricotzseb128, e.g. to follow the d-conf package split to serve the dependencies for newer packages20:38
ricotzand the gir - dev package deps20:38
seb128stop adding new crack to the ppa?20:39
seb128let it the way it's now?20:39
seb128nothing stop updates to be done keeping the same packaging20:39
seb128you don't need to bring oneiric versions with their packaging changes in20:39
seb128you could just update the versions over the ppa versions20:39
ricotzhmm, alright, lets see how far this works20:40
ricotzseb128, is updating metacity on the todo list yet?20:41
seb128no20:41
seb128we use compiz20:41
ricotzseb128, ok, updating it to 2.34 should be done though20:42
dobeyseb128: doesn't 2d fallback use metacity?20:43
seb128the team is open to contributions20:43
seb128dobey, unity-2d does yes20:43
dobeyseb128: "classic gnome" doesn't?20:43
ricotzdobey, i think so too20:43
seb128dobey, classic does use compiz by default20:43
seb128it just fallback if compiz can't be use20:43
seb128used20:43
dobeyright20:44
seb128but in any case nobody there cares about the fallback it seems20:44
ricotzok20:44
seb128so if people want to update it do it, don't wait on others20:44
