TheMusoDoes anybody know if there is a tag we can mark bugs with that need translating?01:23
micahgTheMuso: well, bugsquad policy was convert to question, but you can either use google translate or add an ubuntu-translators project tasks if you know you want the bug01:28
TheMusomicahg: Right, its just another "no sound" bug.01:29
TheMusoI think.01:29

brendandmy new pet peeve in life is launchpads duplicate 'detection'13:08
jibelbrendand, bug_tasks.findSimilarBugs lp method or whatever tries to find duplicates definitely needs improvements.13:13
brendandafaict it doesn't even search for the proposed summary in the description of existing bugs13:14
brendandand the matching needs to be much more fuzzy13:14
brendandat least it should always propose 5-6 bugs on a best effort and then let the reporter decide13:15
evfoolhi all, what would you set as a status for bug 685973, as the About Me dialog is obsolete now13:19
ubot4Launchpad bug 685973 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) (and 2 other projects) "Selecting 'No image' in 'About me' is not the same as the default, i.e. no image (affects: 2) (heat: 18)" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/68597313:19
pedro_evfool, invalid for the development release , valid for the stable , if someone wants to propose a fix in a sru is welcome to do it13:24
evfoolpedro_ unfortunately I think I can't create release-targeted tasks, so if you could do that, I'd be grateful13:25
hggdhevfool: pong13:39
pedro_top of the morning hggdh13:41
evfoolhggdh just wanted to ask you whether you've seen anything like in bug 80722313:41
ubot4Launchpad bug 807223 in r-base (Ubuntu) "package blcr-dkms 0.8.2-15ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: blcr kernel module failed to build (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/80722313:41
hggdhpedro_: a very good morning to you, sir13:41
evfoolthe bug is totally a duplicate of bug 700036 based on the dkmsbuild log, but it's filed against r-base, and has a seemingly totally unrelated dependency error in the bug description13:42
ubot4Launchpad bug 700036 in openmpi (Ubuntu Natty) (and 5 other projects) "package blcr-dkms 0.8.2-15ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: blcr kernel module failed to build - error: ‘struct signal_struct’ has no member named ‘count’ (affects: 157) (dups: 152) (heat: 1342)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70003613:42
evfoolcould it happen that apport "merges" two bug reports somehow?13:43
evfoolthat seems to be the case here, as the bug title, the dkmsbuildlog, everything seems to be about blcr, but the package it's filed against is another one, and the description has that dependency error13:44
evfoolapport got a bit confused here, I think, this might be an apport bug13:44
hggdhevfool: it might. Better to ask the OP, though. I have not seen apport *that* confused13:45
jibelevfool, probably the user merged it. apport triggered the blcr bug and the user added the r-base trace to the description and changed the package assignment ?13:46
jibelnever underestimate the user.13:46
hggdh(I am a bit curious on why the user has /opt/real/RealPlayer on the make path)13:46
hggdhjibel: good afternoon13:47
hggdhand yes, never underestimate the user :-)13:47
evfooljibel: the full bug activity log should have things like package changes in it, shouldn't it?13:47
jibelGood afternoon hggdh pedro_ evfool and all13:47
jibelevfool, not if he did it when he filed the bug.13:47
evfoolok13:47
evfoolthen would it be ok to mark it as a duplicate based on the logs?13:48
jibelbut, as hggdh said, better ask the op to be certain it is not apport being confused. But I'd be surprised.13:48
evfoolop = reporter?13:48
yofeloriginal poster = reporter13:49
jibelevfool, well it is not a duplicate according to the description. His problem is really with r-base13:49
evfooljibel, hggdh, I give up, this one seems too complicated for me :)13:51
pedro_afternoon jibel!13:52
jibelevfool, try to triage bug 807540 then ;-)13:59
ubot4Launchpad bug 807540 in dpkg (Ubuntu) "Attempting to update with dpkg (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/80754013:59
evfooljibel, Incomplete, I guess :)14:00
hggdhpedro_: UDW next week... what about talking (again...) about DOs and DONOTs on triage?15:16
pedro_hggdh, yes that and add some tips for searching , etc15:20
brendandnautilus break for anyone after todays update?15:31
pedro_brendand, it was sort of broken yesterday due to the zeitgeist update works fine now though at least for me15:32
pedro_zeitgeist caused ubuntu1 to have a crash loop which also caused nautilus to crash, but that was fixed by the amazing didrocks15:33
brendandhmm, maybe i didn't get all updates yet. still have u1, zeitgeist crashes and nautilus doesn't open15:34
jibelbrendand, fixed in ubuntuone-client 1.7.0-0ubuntu215:35
pedro_brendand, anything on ~/.xsession-errors?15:35
brendandpedro_ - these are repeating always : http://paste.ubuntu.com/640203/15:38
pedro_brendand, right, that's the u1 issue15:39
brendandwell, i'll try a dist-upgrade15:40

cyphermoxlook into /lib/udev/rules.d/ for files starting with 77-mm-16:34
bdmurraycyphermox: got it thanks.  also in the screenshot in bug 806082 is there some way to get modem-manager to stop filing the screen there16:36

cyphermoxseems like MM gets killed which causes it to get respawned16:36
bdmurraycyphermox: great, thanks16:37
cyphermoxperhaps upstartifying modemmanager could make this work properly, if I make sure it gets stopped when NM gets stopped16:39

seb128well at least that one means extra time for bug fixing :p19:07
pedro_paultag, oh yeah!19:07
pedro_paultag, checking really old new bugs without any comment for the original reporter19:07
pedro_really old meaning more than a year19:07
paultagpedro_: Gotcha. Sweet :)19:07
pedro_i should make that script public though so others can use it for their projects..19:08
seb128pedro_, you should write a script that close all segfault bugs older than lucid that didn't get a comment19:08
pedro_saves a lot of time19:08
pedro_seb128, i have one for assigning all the bugs to you19:08
pedro_oh wait that's a secret19:08
seb128there is probably a collection of those to close19:08
