micahgchrisccoulson: BTW, is there a master branch for natty for firefox 5?10:27
SpaceemanSalut :)10:30
SpaceemanPeut-on trouver ici des solutions concernant l'utilisation de Thunderbird ? (suis-je au bon endroit?)10:31
chrisccoulsonmicahg, https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-beta.natty10:33
micahgchrisccoulson: thanks10:34
micahgSpaceeman: we generally speak English in this channel :)10:35
Spaceemanok, no problemo...10:39
SpaceemanI speak a litle bit English too...10:39
SpaceemanI've make a mistake, I think... About "mail button" on right-top, I've installed Thunderbird but Evolution stay launched...10:41
Spaceeman[10.04]10:42
micahgI don't think there's any indicator integration on 10.04 for Thunderbird10:43
SpaceemanHo... Because I've changed in System → Preferences → "Prefered Applications...", selected Thunderbird for e-mail...10:44
SpaceemanThen I've clicked on the "mail button right top" and a dialog windows has apeare... asking me about Evolution, if I want it as default client... I've made a mistake then ! I've check the box "don't ask me again" and click Yes ("I wan Evolution as default...") fu**10:46
SpaceemanBut so, the dialog d'ont apear again because I've check the box...10:46
Spaceeman(have you readed me ?)10:47
ftachrisccoulson, did you test ch yesterday?11:09
chrisccoulsonfta - not yet, but i did get my VM set up quite late last night11:09
chrisccoulsoni could test that now though11:09
ftachrisccoulson, please do. i tried on that build on oneiric and it works fine :P i'm lost11:10
fta-on11:10
micahgfta: BTW, the oneiric armel build is hung, I'm going to get someone to kill it an lamont to increase the timeout on the native builders for arm, so you can please remove the keep-alive script on your next archive upload? (I already got the non-arm builders up to 3 hours)11:12
ftamicahg, i asked twice to kill it, they ignored me. I fixed the keep alive in trunk and dev already11:16
micahgfta: cool, thanks, I'll get it killed later today11:17
chrisccoulsonoh, i've had 1 e-mail already from someone notifying me that natty-proposed has the latest firefox beta in it, thinking that it's a mistake11:25
chrisccoulsondo people not understand what "natty-proposed" means when they opt in to it? :/11:25
micahgchrisccoulson: what's going to be funnier is if that's the final build and it gets pushed to -security :)11:26
chrisccoulsonmicahg, heh11:27
chrisccoulsonthat's not the final build though, as we'll rebase the code from the release branch11:27
micahgI thought they said the final build wasn't coming from the release branch this time around11:28
chrisccoulsonis it not?11:28
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure11:28
chrisccoulsonoh, it has too, because the beta builds are enabled with the beta update channel11:29
chrisccoulson(which in turn, enables test-pilot)11:29
chrisccoulson**built with the beta update channel enabled (makes more sense)11:29
micahgwell, since we don't use the update channel, in the future if the code is the same, I'd rather disable test pilot on our security uploads and prepare to ship it as the final build11:34
micahgotherwise there's no point in pushing to proposed or the security PPA until the final build is done (which is too late IMHO)11:35
chrisccoulsonmicahg, we use the update channel to enable test-pilot11:58
chrisccoulsonsecurity uploads won't have test-pilot enabled because they won't come from the beta channel11:59
chrisccoulsonthis is different, because we've uploaded a build from the beta channel11:59
micahgchrisccoulson: yes, but if that's the only difference between the beta and final release, I'd want to disable test pilot early and get more extended testing12:26
chrisccoulsonmicahg, i'm not sure what you mean. the release builds will never have it enabled (which is what will be uploaded to ubuntu-mozilla-security in the future)12:27
micahgchrisccoulson: what I mean is that if there is no code difference between the final beta and the release build, I want to upload the final beta as the release build for us12:28
chrisccoulsonhmmm, we shouldn't do that. our build should be based on the code that they tag for release (which IIUC will be on a different branch)12:29
chrisccoulsonbhearsum can probably tell us what happens next for firefox 5 ;)12:31
micahgchrisccoulson: if the plan is to do that the final week, that's not good enough, especially if there's no code difference, I"ll speak with leagnitto after this release to try to work out what's happening upstream,12:33
bhearsumhello!12:33
chrisccoulsonhi bhearsum12:34
chrisccoulsonso, we're all confused12:34
chrisccoulsonwe're trying to work out what the next stage of the process is for releasing firefox 5 :)12:34
bhearsumsure12:36
bhearsumso, at this point we think we're code complete, and 5.0b5 is the last thing we're planning to release to the beta audience12:36
bhearsumnext week, we're going to merge mozilla-beta -> mozilla-release, and rebuild off of the same changeset12:36
bhearsum(the only difference will be the update channel we set)12:36
chrisccoulsonok, that's pretty much what i thought would happen :)12:37
bhearsumoh, and there's no Test Pilot in the build, either12:37
chrisccoulsonbhearsum, yeah, that's why i thought there would have to be another build (to switch update channel and turn off test-pilot)12:37
bhearsumyep, you got it12:37
bhearsumin the future, we're talking about doing some sort of repack to change those things12:38
bhearsumbut that won't happen for 5, and probably not 6 either12:38
chrisccoulsonbhearsum, so, i guess there will be a few days between you tagging the release branch for release and actually releasing it?12:38
micahgright, so in the future, we (Ubuntu) should disable test pilot on the final beta so that we can have extended testing on the same build12:38
bhearsumi'm not 100% sure when we're building, to be honest. but it'll be sometime next week, because we're releasing a week from tuesday12:38
chrisccoulsonmicahg, well, we should just upload the release build to our PPA when mozilla start doing their build12:39
chrisccoulsoni'd rather not start manually switching things off for the last build (which might end up not being the last build). all of that stuff happens automatically for us, without me having to do anything ;)12:39
micahgleagnitto's calendar has it scheduled for jun 1512:40
micahgchrisccoulson: I'd rather have an extra week of user testing on the final build12:40
chrisccoulsonhmmm, well, that's probably not something i'm going to be doing though. the beta builds i provide are destined for the firefox-next PPA, and as such will have test-pilot enabled.12:41
bhearsummicahg: 15th for doing the build?12:41
micahgbhearsum: yep12:41
bhearsumhuh, sounds like you have better info than me!12:41
chrisccoulsoni don't want to start switching it on and off, as firefox-next users will get pretty confused :)12:41
micahgchrisccoulson: that's fine, I'll do the uploads to the security PPA then12:41
micahgbhearsum: https://mail.mozilla.com/home/clegnitto@mozilla.com/Firefox%205.html12:41
bhearsumha12:41
chrisccoulsonbhearsum, this appeared within about 30 minutes of us staging the beta - http://askubuntu.com/questions/48035/why-is-natty-proposed-suggesting-an-upgrade-to-a-beta-version-of-firefox ;)12:43
chrisccoulsoni'm surprised :)12:43
micahgbhearsum: are you saying that test pilot is off in beta 5?12:44
bhearsummicahg: nope - it's on12:45
micahgok12:45
micahgyeah, so, we'll need another build :(12:45
bhearsumbrb12:46
micahgchrisccoulson: actually, I'm going to replace the beta next week with the final build in proposed12:47
chrisccoulsonmicahg, why?. remember that the first build after the merge from beta -> release hasn't had any testing by anyone. isn't that a bit risky?12:49
micahgchrisccoulson: because I want user testing on what's going to -security12:49
micahgand this beta didn't have any testing either when you uploaded it ;)12:50
chrisccoulsonmicahg, well, the channel has had testing for several weeks (it wasn't the first build from that channel)12:50
chrisccoulsonyou're talking about uploading the first build straight after a merge, which nobody has tested ;)12:50
chrisccoulsoni woudn't choose to do that, but that's up to you i guess ;)12:50
micahgI don't see much choice, I can wait one day12:51
micahgI guess I need to ask about that since the package versioning will be the same as final12:54
* micahg e-mails legnitto12:54
chrisccoulsonwe definitely don't want anything suggesting a beta version in the version number of our release packages, even if it is the release build. be prepared for constant e-mails from people and having to explain how it's not really a beta if you do that ;)12:56
chrisccoulsoni had the same with the RC of firefox 412:56
bhearsumback12:56
chrisccoulsonpeople kept asking me why we still had the RC in the archive, weeks after release12:56
chrisccoulsonin the end, i just caved in and did another upload, just to change the version number of the package ;)12:57
bhearsumchrisccoulson: to be fair, the "merge" that's going to happen is more of a "overwrite mozillla-release with mozilla-beta"12:57
bhearsumit just happens to be called a merge in hg nomenclature :)12:57
chrisccoulsonbhearsum, ok, that's not so bad12:57
micahgchrisccoulson: I might version the beta builds differently, I need to see how this plays out in the "final" versioning12:58
micahgbut what I do know is we want as much testing as possible on these builds, so I"m going to do what I can to make that happen12:59
chrisccoulsonfta - i tested the chromium build from your PPA on natty, and i don;t see the same issue as before13:03
chrisccoulsonbut it still doesn't really work properly (I get a frame every 5 seconds or so), but i'm not sure if that's a virtualbox issue ;)13:04
chrisccoulsoni guess i should try downgrading again13:04
chrisccoulsonoh, downgrading chromium didn't work too well :(13:10
chrisccoulsoni get a cache read error on every page i've previously visited :/13:10
ftauh13:28
ftachrisccoulson, when i downgrade, i usually test with --temp-profile so it doesn't touch my own stuff13:29

=== m_conley_away is now known as m_conley
dpmfta, what's the current situation with the 'inspector-strings' template? Are the inspector translations loaded already? I seem to remember you told me that it wasn't working when we first opened translations15:11
ftadpm, upstream doesn't want it translated so no effort has been made to fix the problem15:12
ftai should probably remove it15:12
dpmfta, oh, did they give any particular reason for not wanting it translated?15:13
ftadpm, well, most devs speak english.. also, my poll showed little interest15:14
ftadpm, just curious, why did you stop at 3 out of 6 strings?16:14
dpmfta, I started doing the ca@valencia translation, then realized I should do the ca one as well, finished that one, and then got sidetracked ;)16:17
ftaoh, ok16:17
ftadpm, fyi, i will upstream another batch of 500 strings later today, on top of the 21000+ already upstreamed16:20
dpmfta, cool16:21
ftadpm, i guess there's still a gap though. i never touched the extra per lang locale_settings_linux pref. so i assume some of the new lang we've introduced look weird16:27
ftalangS16:27
ftaprefS16:27
ftaprobably all non-ascii16:28
ftai meant, iso-latin1516:29
ftalike the default fonts & sizes: http://git.chromium.org/gitweb/?p=chromium.git;a=blob_plain;f=chrome/app/resources/locale_settings_linux.grd;hb=HEAD16:30
ftaand the dialog sizes: http://git.chromium.org/gitweb/?p=chromium.git;a=blob_plain;f=chrome/app/resources/locale_settings.grd;hb=HEAD16:31
ftadpm, ^^16:32
dpmfta, we should perhaps reach out to the teams from these new langs and explicitly ask for testing and feedback?16:36
ftadpm, yep, but i don't see how they could experiment with those without patching & building :(16:37
dpmfta, well, we can start small and first of all ask them to test if the in current builds the size of fonts and dialogs look ok for them16:38
ftadpm, maybe ask each team to provide a screenshot in their lang, providing a model (showing the main ui with a page & some dialogs)16:41
ftadpm, ..so we can see for ourselves which langs need work in priority16:42
dpmfta, yeah, that'd be a start. Do you have a list of new languages I should start contacting teams for?16:43
ftadpm, ast ca-valencia eo eu gl hy ka ku ug   (but some have just a few strings)16:47
