ozysimpson | I am not sure if somebody has already asked this question before, I can sucessfull connect my thunderbird to my work exchange server using IMAP, Could some one please advise me on how to get my calender working on thunderbird please | 06:17 |
micahg | ozysimpson: if you have caldav support, you can use lightning | 06:18 |
ozysimpson | micahg, could you please elaborate please, what do you mean by caldav and lightning? | 06:20 |
micahg | caldav is a standard for calendaring, lightning is an extension for thunderbird | 06:21 |
ozysimpson | micahg, thanks mate, i will some googling on the topic | 06:24 |
micahg | ozysimpson: ah, check this out: https://addons.mozilla.org/af/thunderbird/addon/provider-for-microsoft-exchang/ | 06:26 |
ozysimpson | micahg, unfortunately i doesn't work on mine, because I am running thunderbird 2.0.0.24 it needs 3.01 :-( | 06:31 |
micahg | ozysimpson: ah, that version of thunderbird is totally unsupported BTW | 06:32 |
ozysimpson | I think you might shoot me in middle of the road, i am running CentOS and asking this question in semi Ubuntu channel sorry | 06:33 |
micahg | heh, yeah, you probably want #thunderbird on irc.mozilla.org then | 06:33 |
micahg | actually, they can't help much either, they don't support that version anymore | 06:34 |
ozysimpson | thunderbird2.0.0.24 is the stardard centos ships with | 06:34 |
micahg | well, I guess centos has to support it, our 2 releases with 2.0.0.24 went EOL about a month ago | 06:34 |
micahg | you can try the #thunderbird channel for upstream support and see what they say though :) | 06:35 |

chrisccoulson | hmmm, if i run "thunderbird -addressbook", the menu appears inside the window :/ | 13:05 |

chrisccoulson | oh dear - http://www.browsomatic.com/2011/06/google-chrome-soon-to-replace-firefox.html | 15:38 |
bhearsum | that headline seems a tad misleading | 15:39 |
chrisccoulson | bhearsum, it is | 15:39 |
chrisccoulson | i'm just going to stop reading these sites altogether :) | 15:41 |
vish | hehe! no one told chrisccoulson Firefox was being replaced! smells like conspiracy! ;p | 15:41 |
chrisccoulson | heh | 15:41 |
chrisccoulson | lol @ some of the comments on http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/06/adobe-air-for-linux-axed/ | 15:50 |
chrisccoulson | "I am trying to see why is this a bad news? It's like crying over cured syphilis" | 15:50 |
chrisccoulson | it's an "interesting" crowd on there | 15:51 |
* dpm can see the next headline: "Chris Coulson to become the new Google Chrome maintainer" :P | 15:51 | |
chrisccoulson | lol | 15:52 |
chrisccoulson | i don't think so ;) | 15:52 |
chrisccoulson | i don't mind looking after an open-source application | 15:52 |
fta | chrisccoulson, you can take chromium if you want, that way i can at last retire | 15:53 |
chrisccoulson | fta - 2 browsers + 1 e-mail client is a bit much ;) | 15:54 |
chrisccoulson | actually, 3 browsers if you count seamonkey | 15:54 |
chrisccoulson | fta - and you do such a good job with chromium, there's no need for you to retire | 15:55 |
fta | chrisccoulson, well, not really, i suck at handling bugs, they keep piling up | 15:59 |
chrisccoulson | fta - i know that feeling ;) | 16:00 |
chrisccoulson | i need a way to filter out good quality bug reports really | 16:00 |
chrisccoulson | i'd say that probably 90% of the bugs we get against firefox are either 1) a bug in another application (but the user happened to use the "Help -> Report a bug" menu entry in their browser), 2) contain so little information that they're useless, 3) user error or 4) a support request | 16:02 |
fta | i have lots of crashers i'd like to go directly upstream | 16:04 |
fta | but breakpad, well, you know the story | 16:04 |
chrisccoulson | fta - have you seen https://launchpad.net/arsenal before? | 16:05 |
fta | the rest is mostly feature requests => upstream, user errors. very few packaging related issues in fact | 16:05 |
chrisccoulson | bryce uses it for X bugs | 16:06 |
fta | nope, looking.. | 16:06 |
chrisccoulson | heh, bug 766787 | 16:07 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 766787 in firefox "No" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/766787 | 16:07 |
chrisccoulson | i just close those sorts of bugs now, i don't even bother trying to waste time interacting with the reporter | 16:07 |
chrisccoulson | i've got no idea what they expect to happen from a report like that :/ | 16:07 |
fta | lol | 16:08 |
fta | "No": "IDK" | 16:08 |
chrisccoulson | and that has been manually triggered either via apport-bug or the help menu entry | 16:09 |
chrisccoulson | if it was a package upgrade failure, it would have dmesg output etc attached to it | 16:09 |
chrisccoulson | and i could understand the "IDK" description in that case ;) | 16:09 |
chrisccoulson | but that one is just weird, and we get quite a lot of those too | 16:09 |
fta | chrisccoulson, you should add an apport hook with a triage question, like rhythmbox, totem.. | 16:12 |
chrisccoulson | fta - yeah, i've been thinking about that for ages now, i just never got around to it | 16:13 |
fta | dpm, i've backported the lang variants fix for ca@valencia in the beta and stable ppas, should be ready in a few hours | 16:16 |
fta | chrisccoulson, i'd love to just have an "upstream" button in lp/bugs :P | 16:20 |
dpm | fta, awesome, thanks for the heads up! | 16:20 |
chrisccoulson | fta - heh. that could be dangerous ;) | 16:21 |

fta | the idea is to expose more clearly the OOM | 20:14 |
fta | some builders are done in ~1h, some need 5 or 6h :P | 20:15 |
micahg | yeah, some have more resources than others | 20:18 |
micahg | chrisccoulson: so, I can take dehydra and mongodb, but might not get to them until the end of the month, responding in IRC in case anyone else decides they want to take them | 20:27 |

chrisccoulson | m_conley, i've been hacking on your messagingmenu extension tonight ;) | 21:00 |
m_conley | chrisccoulson: everything ok with it? | 21:00 |
chrisccoulson | it adds itself as a launcher in the menu when you start it now, so the Thunderbird entry persists even after you close it | 21:01 |
chrisccoulson | yeah, it's good :) | 21:01 |
chrisccoulson | you'll probably get a few merge proposals tomorrow | 21:01 |
m_conley | chrisccoulson: absolutely, bring 'em on. :) | 21:01 |
chrisccoulson | micahg, i've already been pinged about mongodb by someone else who needs it working | 21:02 |
chrisccoulson | so i'll probably end up working on it before the end of the week anyway | 21:03 |
chrisccoulson | i want all of my work items on that blueprint done by the end of the week so i can get on with more important work related to thunderbird ;) | 21:03 |
micahg | chrisccoulson: k, feel free to leave the community items for me | 21:04 |
chrisccoulson | micahg, sure. but don't waste too much time on them ;) | 21:05 |
chrisccoulson | the fact that nobody else has picked them up is a good sign that nobody really cares about them | 21:05 |
micahg | chrisccoulson: we only have 180 devs... | 21:05 |
chrisccoulson | micahg, 180 in the team officially | 21:05 |
chrisccoulson | but i sent my mail to ubuntu-motu and ubuntu-devel last month and didn't get a single reply, and i've spent a lot of time already preserving applications that i'm never going to use :) | 21:06 |
micahg | anyways, not planning on spending too much time, but I think I can knock off a couple of them | 21:06 |
chrisccoulson | eg, gxine, which was an absolute PITA | 21:06 |
micahg | yeah, I want to see if I can get xul support in eclipse disabled, 3.6 doesn't even build properly ATM | 21:07 |
micahg | bdrung: BTW, mozilla-devscripts still build-deps on python-support, can we move to dh_python2? | 21:08 |
bdrung | micahg: what build dependency do i need for dh_python2? | 21:20 |
micahg | bdrung: http://wiki.debian.org/Python/PythonSupportToDHPython2 | 21:21 |
chrisccoulson | hi bdrung, how are you? | 21:22 |
bdrung | fine | 21:22 |
bdrung | chrisccoulson: are you asking because of vlc and eclipse? | 21:22 |
chrisccoulson | bdrung, heh, not this time ;) | 21:23 |
bdrung | :) | 21:23 |
chrisccoulson | did you want me to ask about those? :) | 21:23 |
bdrung | no | 21:23 |
bdrung | chrisccoulson: i am busy with other stuff | 21:23 |
chrisccoulson | sure, that's ok. no rush ;) | 21:24 |
bdrung | micahg: pushed. can you check it? | 21:34 |
bdrung | micahg: i think it would be good to add a setup.py file | 21:35 |
micahg | bdrung: X-Python-Version shouldn't be all per the wiki, should be >= the minimum version supported | 21:42 |
fta | grrr, too cloudy here, i can't see the eclipse | 21:42 |
bdrung | fta: where should i see the moon? | 21:43 |
bdrung | micahg: do you know the lowest version that we support? | 21:43 |
micahg | at least 2.6 :) | 21:44 |
fta | depends where you are. in europe: south east | 21:44 |
chrisccoulson | fta - it's cloudy here too | 21:44 |
chrisccoulson | but every day is cloudy in birmingham | 21:44 |
micahg | bdrung: that takes care of Lucid+ and stable+ | 21:44 |
bdrung | fta: germany, but probably too cloudy | 21:44 |
bdrung | micahg: feel free to change that | 21:45 |
micahg | k, will have to do a little later | 21:45 |
fta | bdrung, it's a long full moon eclipse, like 1 every 11y, worth it if you can | 21:45 |
fta | it's supposed to be red | 21:46 |
