ScottKmaco: I'll be offline for a bit, but I can upload later tonight if you get a fix and no one else is around.00:15
stgraberwow, Edubuntu actually installed fine!00:16
stgraberand "works" after reboot!00:16
stgraberok, seems like we'll get an alpha then ;)00:16
skaetstgraber,  :)00:19
skaetPlease add a description of what's new and changing in the Edubuntu section of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview00:20
stgraberyep, will do. Though I guess the only "feature" is that we "switched" to gnome-fallback for now ;)00:20
skaetScottK,  can you add the overview of what's changing on the Kubuntu side, and the advice on what's ok to play with, and what to avoid.00:21
slangasekGrueMaster: any fixes for armel?01:28
stgraberskaet: what's the magic tag for bugs on the wiki again? I thought it was bug:<number> but that doesn't seem to work01:33
skaetstgraber,  that should work.01:34
skaetgo ahead and put it in, and I'll tweak it as I do the rest of the edits if its not working.01:34
stgraberskaet: ok, done with my edits.01:37
skaetstgraber,  thanks!  :)01:39
GrueMasterslangasek: None.01:50
macoScottK: for the kbd thing, if slangasek's stuck, like hell i'm getting any further on02:19
* maco pulls down daily live build to test against02:30
slangasekI'm afk for the next three hours; happy to trigger respins when I return if there's any forward motion on ubiquity02:40
slangasekmaco: and I think you overestimate my ability to maneuver my way through modern GUI code02:41
macoslangasek: you're more likely than i am to figure out the xkb-data part02:42
macothe backend did a *thing* and it was wrong!02:42
maco^ this is as far as i got02:42
slangasekheh02:43
maconow if this iso would download a bit faster i could try again on that patch i gave jibel, but this time with that one other change i said after, i presume, he went to bed02:43
=== smoser` is now known as smoser
ScottKskaet: Kubuntu alternates are fine.  Kubuntu live runs a live session, but no install. If you want to play with it, use the live and if you want to install it, use the alternate.04:56
macoim pretty stuck04:57
macoive even got two people who are actually *good* at python getting confused04:57
ScottKI think to understand Ubiquity is not a job for casual inspection of the code no matter how good you are.04:58
macowell the fact that ubiquity's failure mode is "oh look i hit some python that doesnt make sense in this page. i'll just skip the page instead of doing anything interactive-like that could help debug it" is rather unhelpful04:59
ScottKNo doubt.04:59
macoScottK: spiv & rockstar are both guessing there's something Qt wants that normal python doesn't care about05:01
ScottKPossible.05:01
ScottKMaybe you could just look at what the gtk parts use to not need that information and do that instead?05:02
macoits that the new derived widget class isnt being recognised05:02
ScottKOh.05:03
ScottKI would have guessed that'd be totally pythonic.05:03
macoim getting "Unknown Qt widget: CheckBox"05:03
macoScottK: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maco.m/ubiquity/791446/revision/4742?start_revid=4742   if you wanna see the current state of my attempt05:05
macothough given the keyboard thing, even if i sort this out tonight, the live installs are still buggered05:05
ScottKYeah.05:07
macoScottK: looking at help(uic), i dont think loadUi()05:30
maco*can* use custom widgets05:31
ScottKWell that might explain it.05:31
macothe one other widget defined in qtwidgets.py (StateBox) isnt actually used in any of the qt .ui files05:31
macoso i think im back to the "if gtk, do X; if kde, do Y" code05:32
ScottKLovely.05:32
ScottKWithout a solution to the keyboard problem, I think it's not a rush.05:32
slangasekmaco: there are other custom widgets in the .ui file, to be sure05:57
macoslangasek: there's one, and its unused05:57
slangasekoh, heh05:57
slangasekwait, no it isn't05:57
macoer i mean in qtwidgets.py, there's one, and it's unused05:57
macoStateBox's *gtk* version is used in the gtk .ui files05:58
slangasekoh05:58
macoStateBox is not used in the qt .ui files at all05:58
slangasekwell, doh05:58
macoguess its just totally left out of the ui file and then programmatically added later05:58
slangasekright, so overriding the PreparePageBase in the subclass seems to be the way to go?05:59
macohttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~maco.m/ubiquity/791446/revision/4744?start_revid=4741&remember=4741&compare_revid=4741 well this is what appears to be *working*06:00
macoits same as the one that was confirmed to work in kubuntu but not in ubuntu, except now with the correct string being compared to type()'s output so that the ubuntu one works too now06:01
ScottKDoes the keyboard thing affect everyone or just people in france?06:02
ScottKmaco: ^^^06:03
macotaco and charlie both hit it06:03
ScottKOK.06:03
macobut they dont have tracebacks06:03
macowell actually06:03
macoi suspect if they looked in /var/log/installer/debug instead of just in syslog, maybe they'll have one?06:03
macoim booting a kubuntu iso now06:04
ScottKCool.06:04
Laneycan someone do autosync and (after it's all built) new-binary-debian-universe and new-source | grep haskell in the absence of Colin? :-)11:38
* Laney doesn't ask for much11:38
ScottKLaney: I think we won't do autosync until after Alpha 1 is released.14:29
Laneyforgot about that. Isn't that today?14:30
ScottKSometime.14:32
Laneyfair14:32
ScottKskaet: It looks like no chance we'll get installs using ubiquity-kde working for Alpha 1, so the status I gave you last night is the 'final' one.  Is there anything else you need from me?14:33
charlie-tcaShould there be a note in the overview about the oversized images (can use DVD or USB) ?14:33
ScottKProbably.14:33
* ScottK wishes there was an equivalent of aptitude why to answer the question 'why is package foo in packageset bar'.14:36
charlie-tcaskaet: no significant changes for Xubuntu. Release Notes done.14:37
skaetgood morning.14:42
skaetcharlie-tca,   Thanks!14:42
skaetScottK,  If you could add in an overview, and things to avoid (ie. status last night)  to the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview,  that would be appreciated14:43
ScottKWill do.14:44
charlie-tcaYou are welcome14:44
ScottKskaet: Done.15:17
ScottKLet me know how that is.15:17
* skaet looking15:18
skaetScottK:  looks good.   Thanks!15:19
ScottKGreat.  You're welcome.15:19
micahgScottK: if a packageset is wrong, it can be changed16:39
ScottKmicahg: Agreed, but sometimes ones I thought were wrong turned out to make sense once I understood the dependency relationship.16:40
ScottKThe current process "ping cj watson and ask" doesn't scale very well.16:40
micahgScottK: well, I think I started filing bugs for my changes, maybe we should make that the procedure16:40
ScottKMaybe, but the thing I'm after is making it easier to figure out why.16:41
ScottKThe current case in point is why tracker is in the Kubuntu packageset?16:41
micahgthat really sounds like a goof...16:42
ScottKExactly.16:43
ScottKI suspect once the dependency path is analyzed it'll make some kind of sense.16:43
cjwatsonthe reason you're finding it hard to analyse is that there used to be a reason but it has gone away16:44
cjwatsonI've pushed a refreshed copy of the package set data to LP, removing tracker from Kubuntu16:44
cjwatson(though I agree this doesn't solve the general problem)16:45
* micahg wonders what happened to cjwatson16:45
micahgoops16:45
macoare the packagesets kept in bzr?16:45
micahgcjwatson's vacation :)16:45
cjwatsonmy vacation is part housework and part misc Debian catchup16:45
cjwatsonwhen I get bored of housework I sit down for a bit16:46
ScottKcjwatson: Thanks.16:46
cjwatsonmaco: no, they're derived from the archive16:46
cjwatsonwell, there are a few exceptions in a bzr tree that I *really* should push somewhere publicly at some point, along with the scripts to derive from the archive16:46
=== ara_ is now known as ara
skaetScottK,  have pruned down the images in the iso tracker - can you please confirm that the kubuntu ones still there are the ones to ship for Alpha 1?17:17
ScottKLooking.17:19
ScottKI see the package set update got tracker off my list, but got me hunspell-dict-ko17:20
ScottKSo the mystery continues.17:20
NCommandermorning all17:21
ScottKskaet: The right images are there.  I note there's no Kubuntu upgrade on the tracker.  Not a concern for Alpha 1, but should be fixed.17:22
skaetScottK,  fixed.  Kubuntu upgrade added onto the tracker.    Are we going to be able to get more testing on the Kubuntu images today, or are we good to go with them now?17:25
ScottKskaet: I think for Alpha 1 they are tested enough.17:25
ScottKI'd rather push them out the door and get to work on the stuff we're running behind on.17:26
ScottKActually I think having a live image at all for Alpha 1 is above average.17:26
macoit is17:26
maconormally live isnt til alpha 217:26
skaet:)   (and we have ARM images this time around too..... ;) )17:26
ogra_one less than in natty17:29
ogra_natty A1 had both subarches :)17:29
skaetah well...17:30
ogra_skaet, btw, https://lists.launchpad.net/ac100/msg00015.html in case you are intrested :)17:31
* skaet breaks out in a big grin... looking forward to playing this weekend. :)17:35
skaetNCommander, ogra_ -  I'm about to drop the omap3 images from the ship list, based on the fact that they're non functional.  Any reason not to?17:47
ogra_no reason17:47
ogra_go ahead17:47
NCommanderpush the button17:48
skaet:)17:51
skaetogra_, Ncommander - omap3 images pulled.17:58
ogra_thanks17:58
skaetslangasek, cjwatson,  could you disable the alpha-1 milestone now in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric20:03

skaetthanks!20:04

skaetAlpha 1 is has been released.    Thank you all.  :)20:51
barryskaet: \o/20:51

highvoltageedubuntu is weird since it's probably the only distribution ever to ship with the gnome 3 fallback mode as default20:54
