jasoncwarner_hey guys...just back from a quick post-Rally holiday. How are things?00:39
TheMusojasoncwarner_: Hi there. Not too bad thanks. Yourself?00:43
jasoncwarner_TheMuso: pretty good, thanks. I'm wondering if ubuflu got anyone this time?00:44
TheMusoNot me.00:44
jasoncwarner_TheMuso: good to hear. I hope everyone else escaped it as well!00:45
jasoncwarner_robert_ancell: did your luggage finally show up?00:46
robert_ancelljasoncwarner_, yeah, it just didn't make the flight so they couried it the next day00:46
jasoncwarner_ah, ok....that is better than you missing the flight ;)00:47
jasoncwarner_mental note: don't go through heathrow anymore00:47
TheMusojasoncwarner_: I've never had a luggage problem at Heathrow.00:47
RAOFNeither have I :)00:52
brycehme either, but luggage problems tend to strike randomly00:53

jasoncwarner_assuming kenvandine and ted are sleeping? Just updated and indicators seems broken (particularly sound). submitting report now.02:08
kenvandinejasoncwarner_, broken how?02:09
kenvandinethe slider?02:09
jasoncwarner_that and if I try, it hangs for maybe 30 seconds before failing02:09
jasoncwarner_also, my volume up/down buttons don't work. not sure if that is related02:10
kenvandinethat shouldn't be related02:11
TheMusojasoncwarner_: How do they not work? Not working at all?02:13
TheMusoActually, mine appear not to be working at all here either.02:13
jasoncwarner_TheMuso: volume buttons? yeah, not at all right now.02:13
kenvandinejasoncwarner_, mine aren't either02:23
kenvandinei wonder when that broke02:23
kenvandinei doubt that could be the indicator02:23
AfCUI breaks system daemon breaks kernel driver :) Sure it's possible!02:24
jasoncwarner_kenvandine: I noticed it yesterday, I think.02:24
jasoncwarner_don't remember which update did it, however02:24
TheMusoAfaik gnome-settings-daemon is responsible for volume buttons.02:25
kenvandinemy laptop hasn't been updated since thursday02:25
TheMusoHrm ok, my buttons were working after Thursday...02:25
* TheMuso boots his notebook to check behavior there.02:25
jasoncwarner_I noticed some g-s-d crashes the past two days as well (reported those).02:26
TheMusoOk, haven't updated my notebook since Monday and the volume buttons work properly there.02:29
TheMusoJust updating it now to see what happes.02:29
RAOFHm.02:39
RAOFClicking on the volume slider of indicator-sound results in sadness.02:39
RAOF(Specifically a unity-panel-service crash which I shall file forthwith)02:40

TheMusoAn IDO bug afaik,.02:45
RAOFHm.  Apport doesn't seem to think so.02:48
TheMusook02:48
RAOFWheee!  Segfault in g_slice_alloc.  Also, lunch.02:49

didrockspitti: small question: is there any reason we would like to have a package unseeded in main? see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vpnc/+bug/80124006:53
ubot2Ubuntu bug 801240 in vpnc "[MIR] vpnc" [Undecided,New]06:53
pittididrocks: that would be to show that it is supported by Canonical06:54
chrisccoulsondidrocks, i think there was a similar discussion last night about xchat-gnome ;)06:54
pittididrocks: in that case I'd like to see an explicit commitment from the server team for it, as it's nontrivial06:54
didrockspitti: I was thinking that the delimitation of supported/unsupported was not as clear as main/universe :)06:54
didrockspitti: but it would be shown in mismatch components list then?06:54
didrockschrisccoulson: oh? :)06:54
pittididrocks: we'd need to seed it to supported06:55
didrocksdidn't know that one, ok, I'll ask for commitment then06:55
chrisccoulsondidrocks, http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/07/05/%23ubuntu-desktop.html#t19:3206:56
didrockspitti: thanks for the explanation :)06:56
didrockschrisccoulson: looking06:56
chrisccoulsoncan we unfreeze now, so i can upload firefox 6 ;)06:57
didrockschrisccoulson: let me upload Qt before then :p06:59
chrisccoulsonheh07:00
didrockspitti: I'm not sure about 60xdg_path-on-session to be shipped by lightdm. It was shipped before by GDM as we dep it on GDMSESSION, but not that we try to have a more generic session variable, maybe there is a better package for it?07:07
pittiwould it fit into x11-common?07:08
didrockspitti: yeah, I think it's a nice place to pick it, let me see with the xorg guys07:11
didrocksRAOF: around? ^07:11
RAOFAloha.07:11
didrocksRAOF: hey! ;)07:11
didrocksRAOF: so, there is this script which is called /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60xdg_path-on-session07:12
RAOFLet me look at that.07:12
didrockswe should change GDMSESSION by DESKTOP_SESSION with lightdm07:12
didrocksbug #80473407:12
ubot2Launchpad bug 804734 in lightdm "Please ship 60xdg_path-on-session like gdm" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/80473407:12
didrocksx11-common will make more sense that in $whateverdm07:13
didrocksthan*07:13
didrocksdo you want me to do it? (I think you are using a git repo… somewhere in debian? ;))07:13
RAOFYup.  It's in pkg-xorg git.07:13
didrocksRAOF: do you think it makes sense to ship it there?07:14
RAOFQuite possibly; I'm looking at it now.07:16
RAOFMy system is quite responsive for something with 99% swap utilisation.07:16
didrockswhat have you done to this poor bare metal? :)07:17
RAOFI'm not entirely sure; I suspect compiz might be leaking.07:18
didrocksRAOF: are you using indicator-multiload?07:19
RAOFYeah.07:19
didrocksRAOF: so yeah, the refactoring made it leak07:19
didrocks(unity refactoring)07:19
RAOFHm.  60xdg_path-on-session looks pretty gdm-specific.  Does Xubuntu only work with gdm as a display manager?07:21
didrocksRAOF: right now yeah, but now that we are using lightdm, we will use DESKTOP_SESSION instead of GDMSESSION07:22
RAOFI'm not convinced that it fits in x11-common.  Why shouldn't it be in lightdm?  After all, lightdm's what sets the relevant variables.07:23
didrocksRAOF: because maybe other dm should set the same variable in the end? gdm is already setting this variable since gdm 307:24
didrocksRAOF: so shipping it in lightdm and gdm doesn't sound like the right solution07:24
didrocksin addition to have that parsed twice for the same variable if both are installed :)07:25
RAOFSo both gdm 3 and lightdm will set DESKTOP_SESSION and could share this file?07:25
didrocksright07:25
didrocksRAOF: I can provide you a git format patch if needed (just did the transition work in gdm and x11-common here for testing and it works)07:32
RAOFI guess it could go into x11-common.  It seems a bit icky, but the other option is a tiny display-manager-common package containing just that file which seems worse. :)07:33
didrocksRAOF: yeah, that was the other option I was thinking of, but as long as we just have one file… :/07:33
didrocksRAOF: we can revisit if we need to ship more of them, I would say07:33
RAOFYeah, fair enough I think.07:34
didrocksRAOF: http://paste.ubuntu.com/638758/ should do a git format patch with the change. I'm uploading gdm07:36
didrocksRAOF: wait, the changelog git add, git add, git add… ;)07:37
RAOF:)07:38
pittididrocks: debcommit -a FTW :)07:41
didrocksRAOF: http://paste.ubuntu.com/638761/ should be better07:41
didrockspitti: hum, should use that indeed, just used to debcommit with bzr, but I don't have this in my mind with git :) Will do next time for sure! Thanks :)07:42
tjaaltonRAOF: that should be good for debian too, but maybe discuss it with them before pushing there07:47
RAOFYeah.07:47
RAOFdidrocks: Is there a link to some spec that pathmangling implements?07:48
didrocksRAOF: not really, it's based on current implementation of what you have in a session today (without that path change), and what additional path we wanted for UNR, like autostarting other applications as well as adding additional software flavor (like a banshee.destkop which started the netbook flavor and override the one in /usr/share/applications/). Did that reading the freedesktop xdg spec07:50
didrockswhich is at http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html FYI07:50
RAOFRight.  I'm aware of the basedir variables.  It seems that this session script is pretty much Ubuntu specific from that description, though, so Debian's probably not interested in it?07:55
didrocksRAOF: last time  (before lucid) I presented them the "on session" concept (touching gconf and other things), they were not interested, indeed. Maybe now that other projects depends on that, they will reconsider?07:56
RAOFWhich other projects depend on it?07:56
didrocksother ubuntu flavors like xubuntu or mythbuntu, so maybe they want to ensure the same thing with their taskels install07:57
chrisccoulsonis indicator-datetime-service using 100% CPU and spamming dbus for anyone else?08:03
RAOFOh man, so sleepy.08:03
chrisccoulsonboth dbus-daemon and indicator-datetime-service are maxing out the CPU here08:03
RAOFSounds like a dbus storm.08:06
pittichrisccoulson: not regularly08:06
RAOFMy dbus weather appears to be fine, too. :)08:07
didrocksRAOF: you should make an indicator for that!08:11
didrockswhich will then use dbus to show the info… ironic :)08:12

Sweetsharkpitti: https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa/+build/2610421 is looking very strange, its running for 16 hours, seems to be wading through recursive make calls without doing anything (that is: everything seems to be build already). Also I remember to have that problem before once -- on exactly the same builder (karkalla).09:54
SweetsharkLO takes long, but not that long (and linux completes infinite loops in five seconds)09:54
pittiSweetshark: bit weird, I'd expect all buildds to be identical09:55
pittibut perhaps a retry will work on a different builder09:55

pittiSweetshark: you can retry builds in PPAs yourself09:59
pittithere's a button on the build page once it failed09:59
Sweetsharkpitti: I guess it wont fail but be a very lifely representation of the so called "halting problem" ...10:00

seb128what pitti said10:11
Sweetsharkpitti: as for the halting problem: but _I_ want to know if will stop by itself or if I need to kill it. having no full logs it is down to a scientific guess.10:12
pittibut yes, other people prefer to keep the entire history aaaal the way back to warty10:12
pittiSweetshark: I'd use the probabilistic approach then -- if it's still looping after the time the previous build took, it's very improbable to ever halt :)10:12
Sweetsharkpitti: yes, that and the fact that it does not seem to do anything (i.e. it is not changing state -- at least not on disc)10:15
jibeldidrocks, seems close. Any info to request from cking to confirm it is a dup ?10:16
didrocksjibel: I think the lspci provided is enough, but better to check with smspillaz and jay when they are around10:18

chrisccoulsonm_conley_away, any idea about the above?12:23
faganHey im getting this bug when I try to rename files in 11.10 Bug #80644812:23
didrockschrisccoulson: btw, what do you advise as a google calendar support extension? (I didn't see your reply yesterday, if any)12:23
chrisccoulsonm_conley_away, didrocks got a weird exception (Error: tree is undefined at chrome://messenger/content/folderPane.js:885, which is impossible), and it went away by removing the startup cache12:23
faganHmmmm is the bot not working?12:24
chrisccoulsondidrocks, i think you can use lightning for that12:24
* didrocks googles12:24
chrisccoulsoni'm currently not using that though12:24
chrisccoulsonit's in the archive12:24
didrockschrisccoulson: you have no calendar integration?12:24
chrisccoulsondidrocks, not at the moment12:24
didrockscan't live without it :)12:25

chrisccoulsonat some point, there will be an eds-provider package too ;)12:27
didrockschrisccoulson: indeed, looking for it :)12:27
chrisccoulsondidrocks, oh, you're still using the nightlies aren't you?12:28
didrockschrisccoulson: right, the extension won't be detected? do I need some symlink foo?12:28
chrisccoulsondidrocks, yeah, the extension is incompatible (it's a binary extension, so no amount of symlinking or playing around with the install.rdf will fix that)12:29
chrisccoulsoni've not been providing lightning builds with the nightlies12:29
chrisccoulsonperhaps i should start doing that12:30

desrtagateau: the situation is a bit confusing12:59
desrtagateau: dbarth had the idea that dconf-qt should become part of Qt13:00
desrtand some of the Qt guys appeared to support this idea, at least in the margins13:00
desrtbut i think there is no real interest13:00
agateaudesrt: I would suggest a rename if/when it gets into Qt13:00

cyphermoxseb128: turns out I misread yesterday and libgdata 0.9.1 will be needed to go with gnome-online-accounts, so I'll prepare the update, unless you already started?14:20
seb128cyphermox, hey, go for it, is gnome-online-accounts mandatory or optional?14:20
cyphermoxwe can disable it, but since rodrigo is working on it we should get it soon no?14:21
seb128well, better to not block on it14:23
seb128time to get it packaged, reviewed for NEW, in, mir-ed, promoted, etc14:23
seb128it might take a bit14:23
cyphermoxright well, if libgdata is already ready then it will be easy to rebuild evo without --disable-goa14:23
cyphermoxgdata 0.9.1 is apparently required for goa14:24
dobeyoh. g-o-a. i was about to say. wtf does gdata have to do with India? :)14:25
cyphermoxdobey: everything. we outsource development ;)14:26
dobeyyes i know :(14:26
cyphermoxthat said, I fail to see how you linked this with India?14:27

* cyphermox had no idea14:27
seb128rodrigo_, did you figure the gnome-desktop .a issue?14:27
dobeybut Goa is a place in India, and is where the musical genre derives its name from14:28
cyphermoxok14:28
seb128vuntz, !!!14:31
seb128rodrigo_, it's vuntz's fault again, I knew it ;-)14:31
pedro_its always a french fault :-)14:31
desrtseb128: did you solve the gnome-session problem now? :)14:32
seb128desrt, no, but I think vuntz broke some of ours builds by "modernizing the build system a bit"14:33
desrtseb128: oh.  that's surely jjardon's fault, actually :)14:35
desrthis gnome-goal, he gets the blame :)14:35
seb128desrt, seems like the sort of things he would push for yes14:35
desrtglib was broken for some time as well14:35
desrtthen i fixed it and broke it again :)14:35
desrt(in a different way, caused by gtk-doc being fundamentally broken)14:36
desrtlesson: autotools is a very delicate deck of cards.  if it ain't broke then don't fuck with it.14:36
seb128something in those cleanup stopped .a to be built14:36
kenvandinedesrt, you are a wise man14:36
kenvandinewell, i guess wiser now :)14:37
desrt:)14:37
desrtseb128: some advice, please14:37
* kenvandine is about to do evil things with autotools... 14:37
desrtseb128: if i were to want to vendor-patch a feature branch into glib in a private PPA....14:37
desrtseb128: best to take one of your tarball releases from oneric and apply my feature branch as a vendor patch in the usual way?14:37
desrtor do you think i should try to make a new "upstream" tarball?14:38
seb128desrt, glib packaging runs autoreconf on build nowadays so either way works14:38
desrtah.  that's the exact information i was looking for :)14:39
desrtso no need to dist patches against generated files...14:39
vuntzseb128: it's not me, it's not me, it's not me14:39
seb128I tend to make "upstream tarballs" because it's easier to diff successive uploads14:39
desrtseems like more of a burden to go foward, though14:39
desrtsince for each new glib release you do i will have to do a new one to carry the patch14:39
rodrigo_yeah, vuntz's fault probably14:40
seb128vuntz, yeah, yeah, neither gnome-desktop3 not libgweather build a .a during14:40
seb128build14:40
seb128I'm trying to figure what part of the configure cleaning is breaking those14:40
desrt"i love gnome-desktop"?14:40
seb128vuntz, you also promised to review the libwnck patch and you lied :p14:40
seb128never trust vuntz14:40
vuntzseb128: they both build fine here :-)14:41
* desrt generalises to a certain nationality14:41
vuntzseb128: so I blame you14:41
seb128vuntz, they build fine, they just don't have a .a for static builds14:41
vuntzseb128: yes14:41
vuntzseb128: --enable-static14:41
vuntzseb128: they're just disabled by default now14:41
vuntzand the libwnck patch is on my todo list14:41
vuntzgetting there, slowly but surely14:42
desrtvuntz: below how many other items? :)14:42
seb128vuntz, instead of putting warning about abi breaks when there is no none, you should put warnings about configure changes :p14:42
seb128vuntz, why is the default no nowadays?14:42
didrocksslightly out of topic, but impressed by django where you can add url and handlers to them without restarting the server :)14:43
vuntzdesrt: actually, only one or two14:43
vuntzseb128: because I don't like .a files?14:43
seb128vuntz, is that a new GNOME policy? (just asking because we might need to tweak our packaging tools if that's the case)14:44
seb128vuntz, was that discussed, announced somewhere?14:44
seb128vuntz, would be useful to announce at least on the distributors list14:44
vuntzseb128: I don't know, it's just my policy14:45
vuntzseb128: you can choose to always pass --enable-static, though14:45
seb128vuntz, right, I'm doing so but it would be nice to have that consistant over GNOME14:45
seb128vuntz, it would make distributor easier14:45
vuntztrue, we should all move to no static by default :-)14:46
seb128I'm fine with that14:46
seb128it just means we need to add a --enable-static flag in your build tools14:46
seb128but better to have it consistent that having to track different behaviour in different tarballs14:46
seb128vuntz, thanks14:47
seb128rodrigo_, ok, so to fix your gnome-desktop build just add --enable-static14:49
rodrigo_seb128, yes, already did14:49
seb128vuntz, you could have mentioned it in the commit log or news at least :p14:49
rodrigo_seb128, just having a couple more issues, that should be solved now14:49
* rodrigo_ builds14:49
vuntzseb128: true, but I was lazy14:50
seb128vuntz, well if that let you some energy to review that libwnck patch then ok ;-)14:50
seb128vuntz, btw my gedit not starting issue starts after a screensaver use14:51
vuntzseb128: works here14:57
seb128vuntz, lucky you ;-)14:58
seb128I will try later now that I've gnome-session 3.1.314:58
seb128I was still on 3.0 before14:58
chrisccoulsongedit takes forever to start here ;)14:58
seb128like 3 seconds,  5 minutes, hours?14:59
chrisccoulsonseb128, about 10 seconds14:59
chrisccoulsoni would be worried if it was hours ;)14:59
seb128well, when it gets broken there after using the screensaver it seems to just hang15:00
seb128otherwise it starts in less than a second15:00
chrisccoulsonyou have an SSD though don't you ;)15:01
seb128yes15:01
seb128but gedit never took over a second to start on my old laptop either15:01
seb12810s, that's slower than firefox15:01
mterrydidrocks, so I'm finally looking at enabling gedit plugins on the fly.  I don't see a command line option for it.  Do you know how it's done?15:41
didrocksmterry: no, the previous workitem was to patch gedit to enable that. since libpea, I know that upstream listened to that case, not sure it's implemented though15:42
mterrydidrocks, ah...15:42
mterrydidrocks, that makes my work item much larger :)15:42
didrocksmterry: yeah, I was thinking you knew about it, sorry ;)15:43
didrocksbut at least, we can see that on the libpeas side, not using a deprecated plugin system which was the case a year ago15:43
rodrigo_where is the system locale settings stored?15:43
stgraber /etc/default/locale ?15:44
seb128didrocks, mterry: did anyone consider using anjuta rather than gedit as an IDE?15:46
seb128gedit is nice but lacks code completion, online debugging etc15:47
seb128not that anjuta is great but it's closer from an useful IDE than gedit15:47
didrocksseb128: anjuta isn't great at all for python last time I check15:47
seb128is gedit great for python? ;-)15:47
seb128well at least anjuta is supposed to do functions names completion15:48
seb128with online documentation and debugger integration15:48
seb128they probably are suboptimal if they work though15:48
seb128but gedit is closer from a text editor than from an IDE15:48
didrocksseb128: is there completion for function names and debugger for python?15:48
didrockslast time I tried, it didn't15:48
seb128didrocks, the NEWS from the current version has "auto-completion for Gtk.Builder objects in python plugin"15:49
didrocksso maybe it handles it now, worth a try maybe :)15:49
seb128it was maybe broken because of bug #79105815:50

mterryseb128, sorry, walked away for a sec.  I'm not sure we've sat down and done a comparison for quickly's needs yet15:51

seb128I use gedit and like it15:51
* Sarvatt is a geany fan15:51
seb128but I'm not sure what are the requirements for what you want to do15:51
seb128I would think that online documentation and code completion would be nice to have15:51
mterryseb128, we have very basic requirements for now.  We just need an editor.  Everything else is nice-to-have, but there are some gedit plugins/settings that we'd ideally like to enforce when using quickly15:52
mterryseb128, one problem with anjuta is that it has a whole project management thing that is a bit of a different workflow than quickly's15:53

seb128chrisccoulson, you should just ask on #launchpad19:19
cyphermoxcdbs: ping. I'm curious as to what uses liboauth which you maintain in Debian, and why it needed xmalloc patched. I'd also like to know if you've already started looking into debian bug 612326. Turns out liboauth is a new build-depends on libgdata, so I'm working on a MIR for it now and looking through this stuff19:37

cdbscyphermox: pong20:32
cdbscyphermox: I'll look at it tomorrow, thanks20:32
cdbscyphermox: Its a fix for an X: lintian tag, will get it un-patched20:33
cdbscyphermox: Oh, really? Nice! My package will be on the CD! Yay! :D20:33
cyphermoxcdbs: right, afaik it works fine without the patch20:37
cyphermoxI can't get bti to work to make sure, but I don't forsee problems20:37
cdbsYeah, in my testing that part never failed20:37
cyphermoxso the patch was for lintian? I'm not sure I follow20:38
cyphermoxcdbs: by the way, something else, but really small: E: liboauth0: symbols-file-contains-current-version-with-debian-revision on symbol oauth_escape_shell@Base and 3 others20:39
cdbscyphermox: hmm? really?20:39
* cdbs checks20:39
cdbscyphermox: I'll have that fixed tomorrow20:39
cdbscyphermox: I did that to fix lintian, yeah. But it was an X lintian tag, so it wasn't important at all20:40
cyphermoxI think that's because you'd need to run makeshlibs with -- -c420:40
cyphermoxok.. I don't get that lintian tag with the patch disabled20:41
ricotzcdbs, hello :), i hope you like to update your gnome-shell-extensions packaging for the 3.1.3 release?20:42
cyphermoxbut anyway, if you can fix at least just the xmalloc patch, that would be awesome20:42
cdbsricotz: I'm going to give up the ITP20:43
cdbsricotz: I don't have much time to spend online nowadays20:43
cdbsblame personal crap20:43
ricotzcdbs, ok, thanks20:44
ricotzcdbs, i think i need to look at it then20:44
cyphermoxcdbs: if it's easier for you I can always update things, even Debian packages if you tell me it's ok20:45
