| vish | could someone add the aurora channel to the topic? | 05:14 |
|---|---|---|
| chrisccoulson | vish - we should probably actually set up a dashboard somewhere with all the PPA's displayed, and just link that in the topic | 07:47 |
| chrisccoulson | the topic is already very long ;) | 07:47 |
| vish | yea.. :) | 07:47 |

| m_conley | chrisccoulson: hello, how are you? | 13:05 |
| chrisccoulson | hi m_conley, i'm good thanks. how are you? | 14:06 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: all is well. :) I was wondering if you'd seen: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unitylauncher-extension/+bug/805194 | 14:07 |
| ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 805194 in unitylauncher-extension "New message count incorrect TB 5.0" [High,Confirmed] | 14:07 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: has the Unity Launcher functionality been uploaded yet? | 14:07 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, yeah, it was uploaded to oneiric on friday | 14:08 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: hm. Just thinking about that last comment. Maybe that user isn't on the Oneiric alpha. | 14:09 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: alright, cool, I'll let him know. Thanks. :) | 14:09 |
| bhearsum | anyone else having issues with Tb not properly opening links in Fx? (Aurora PPAs for both) | 14:42 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, i'm not using the aurora build of thunderbird. which ubuntu release are you on though? | 14:47 |
| bhearsum | 11.04 | 14:48 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, does it just not open links at all, or open them in the wrong application? | 14:49 |
| bhearsum | it doesn't open them at all | 14:49 |
| bhearsum | i think it's been happening ever since i started using the Tb PPA | 14:49 |
| bhearsum | the aurora one, that is | 14:49 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, what sort of links are they? (ie, are they http, https, or something else) | 14:49 |
| bhearsum | http/https mainly | 14:50 |
| bhearsum | huh, that's funny....they don't work out of Gnome Terminal, either | 14:50 |
| bhearsum | but they do work out of Konversation | 14:50 |
| * bhearsum digs around in the control center | 14:51 | |
| chrisccoulson | heh, that's odd :) | 14:51 |
| bhearsum | yeah | 14:51 |
| bhearsum | must be something GNOME/Unity-wide, though | 14:51 |
| bhearsum | if i change my Preferred Web Browser to Chromium, that works | 14:52 |
| bhearsum | but setting it to Aurora doesn't | 14:52 |
| m_conley | bhearsum: hm - this bug has been brought to my attention a few times, but I've never been able to reproduce | 14:52 |
| bhearsum | i do see my HD indicator light up when i click it, so _something_ is happening | 14:52 |
| m_conley | bhearsum: when you click, does something pop up in the error console? | 14:52 |
| * bhearsum looks | 14:53 | |
| bhearsum | nothing | 14:53 |
| m_conley | Ok, then this sounds like a different bug. | 14:53 |
| chrisccoulson | interesting | 14:53 |
| m_conley | I've also occasionally had TB opening up links in FF with http://%u/ | 14:53 |
| chrisccoulson | i have a 11.04 machine here behind me, i'll try installing aurora on there | 14:54 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, that bug should be fixed now | 14:54 |
| * m_conley checks his Oneric machine.. | 14:54 | |
| bhearsum | huh, /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser points to /usr/bin/seamonkey | 14:54 |
| m_conley | hurrr | 14:54 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, yeah, you can ignore that ;) | 14:54 |
| bhearsum | oh | 14:54 |
| chrisccoulson | we don't use alternatives. they are pretty broken anyway | 14:54 |
| bhearsum | ah, ok | 14:55 |
| bhearsum | is there somewhere else i can look to see exactly what it's trying to execute? | 14:55 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, possibly strace, but that will be quite slow | 14:55 |
| bhearsum | oh, there's not something in gconf or something? | 14:56 |
| bhearsum | oh, here's something | 14:56 |
| bhearsum | [] bhearsum@voot:/etc$ firefox https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670929 | 14:56 |
| bhearsum | Couldn't load XPCOM. | 14:56 |
| ubot2 | Mozilla bug 670929 in Release Engineering "release_sanity.py should halt if buildbot isn't in $PATH" [Normal,New: ] | 14:56 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, oh, interesting | 14:57 |
| bhearsum | ubot2: stop stalking me! ;) | 14:57 |
| ubot2 | bhearsum: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 14:57 |
| chrisccoulson | i wonder if that is fallout from dropping the shell wrapper script | 14:57 |
| bhearsum | certainly sounds like an LD_LIBRARY_PATH problem | 14:57 |
| chrisccoulson | ah, bingo | 14:57 |
| chrisccoulson | thunderbird still sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH, whereas firefox doesn't | 14:57 |
| bhearsum | and "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. firefox https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670929" works as expected | 14:58 |
| chrisccoulson | so i bet the firefox binary tries to load the thunderbird libxpcom.so | 14:58 |
| ubot2 | Mozilla bug 670929 in Release Engineering "release_sanity.py should halt if buildbot isn't in $PATH" [Normal,New: ] | 14:58 |
| chrisccoulson | ah, that's bad | 14:58 |
| bhearsum | (in /usr/lib/firefox-7.0a2) | 14:58 |
| chrisccoulson | strace would verify that though ;) | 14:58 |
| chrisccoulson | but i bet that's it | 14:58 |
| bhearsum | i'll try strace'ing my terminal, that should be a bit quieter | 14:58 |
| chrisccoulson | oh, i forgot, it happens from the terminal too | 14:59 |
| chrisccoulson | so that doesn't make sense anymore ;) | 14:59 |
| bhearsum | doesn't my tests with and without LD_LIBRARY_PATH confirm the issue? | 14:59 |
| === chrisccoulson_ is now known as chr1sccoulson | ||
| chr1sccoulson | bhearsum, ok, i moved to my natty desktop now | 15:01 |
| bhearsum | ahh | 15:01 |
| chr1sccoulson | time to upgrade to aurora :) | 15:02 |
| bhearsum | i'm going to try to repro in upstream aurora, too | 15:02 |
| chr1sccoulson | ah, my internet connection hates me | 15:03 |
| chr1sccoulson | trying to download aurora on this machine whilst uploading aurora and nightly builds from my other machine ;) | 15:04 |
| bhearsum | hah | 15:04 |
| bhearsum | how do i set my default browser to a custom installed one? | 15:04 |
| chr1sccoulson | bhearsum, that's with an upstream build isn't it? | 15:05 |
| bhearsum | the original problem? | 15:05 |
| chr1sccoulson | the custom installed build is just a stock upstream build isn't it? | 15:05 |
| bhearsum | right | 15:05 |
| chr1sccoulson | ah, i'll need to think about that | 15:06 |
| bhearsum | i just want to make sure Thunderbird is trying to use it to open links instead of the known-to-broken PPA one | 15:06 |
| chr1sccoulson | bhearsum, basically, you need to create a desktop file in ~/.local/share/applications/ with an Exec= line pointing to your custom install | 15:06 |
| bhearsum | ah, that's easy enough | 15:07 |
| chr1sccoulson | then you need to set the default for "x-scheme-handler/http" and "x-scheme-handler/https" in ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list to point to the name of the new desktop file | 15:07 |
| chr1sccoulson | our build of firefox does this automatically if you choose it as the default browser | 15:08 |
| bhearsum | ahh, yeah, i see it in there | 15:08 |
| chr1sccoulson | (but that's because we build with --enable-gio) | 15:08 |
| bhearsum | do i need to restart anything for it to take effect? | 15:09 |
| chr1sccoulson | i don't think so | 15:09 |
| bhearsum | ah, it works with the upstream build | 15:09 |
| bhearsum | should i file this in launchpad? | 15:10 |
| chr1sccoulson | yeah, can do | 15:10 |
| bhearsum | huh, ubuntu-bug gave me a traceback | 15:10 |
| chr1sccoulson | yeah, feel free to just file it normally | 15:10 |
| bhearsum | k | 15:10 |
| chr1sccoulson | i think our apport hook is broken with the PPA builds | 15:10 |
| chr1sccoulson | but i've not fixed it because i'm going to completely rewrite it at some point ;) | 15:11 |
| bhearsum | looks like it, based on the traceback | 15:11 |
| bhearsum | hm, now my Aurora PPA build won't launch at all! | 15:11 |
| chr1sccoulson | does it give you an error if you launch it from the console? | 15:12 |
| bhearsum | yeah, the same XPCOM one | 15:12 |
| bhearsum | works fine if i run it from /usr/lib/firefox-7.0a2, of course | 15:12 |
| chr1sccoulson | bhearsum, could you run that with "strace -f firefox" and attach the output to the bug? | 15:13 |
| bhearsum | yup | 15:13 |
| chr1sccoulson | thanks | 15:13 |
| chr1sccoulson | hmmm, so, aurora seems to work here :/ | 15:14 |
| bhearsum | =\ | 15:16 |
| bhearsum | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/809384 | 15:17 |
| ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 809384 in firefox "Firefox Aurora PPA build fails to load XPCOM" [Undecided,New] | 15:17 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, oh, that's odd: | 15:19 |
| chrisccoulson | stat("/home/bhearsum/firefox", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 | 15:19 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, is /usr/bin/firefox a symlink to /usr/lib/firefox-7.0a2/firefox ? | 15:20 |
| bhearsum | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 28 2011-07-11 13:16 /usr/bin/firefox -> ../lib/firefox-7.0a2/firefox | 15:20 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, have you modified PATH in your environment at all? | 15:23 |
| bhearsum | /home/bhearsum/bin is in it, but i think that's normal | 15:25 |
| bhearsum | (and there's no firefox in it, either) | 15:25 |
| chr1sccoulson | bhearsum, oh, it's the /home/bhearsum/firefox folder which breaks it | 15:28 |
| chr1sccoulson | i get the same issue here | 15:28 |
| chr1sccoulson | if i create an empty /home/chr1s/firefox folder, then it breaks :/ | 15:29 |
| bhearsum | oh, hah! | 15:29 |
| bhearsum | that's a crappy bug | 15:29 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, ok, i'll take a look at that after our team meeting | 15:29 |
| bhearsum | by which i mean, hard to deal with | 15:29 |
| bhearsum | (indeed, if i remove that folder, everything works again) | 15:30 |
| chrisccoulson | good catch though, that wouldn't have been too good if we pushed that in to the distro :) | 15:30 |
| bhearsum | np :) | 15:31 |

| micahg | vish: ^^ | 15:33 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, ok, i see what the problem is not | 15:46 |
| chrisccoulson | mozilla::BinaryPath::Get is quite broken, and it's being used at startup now since the changes to lazy load libxul | 15:47 |
| chrisccoulson | i'll write a patch and send it upstream once i'm done | 15:47 |
| bhearsum | oh, sweet | 15:48 |
| bhearsum | why didn't this affect upstream, then? | 15:48 |
| chrisccoulson | bhearsum, your custom build worked btw because you launch it with the full path (it only fails if it's loaded from PATH, so "firefox" will fail, but "/usr/bin/firefox" works) | 15:48 |
| bhearsum | ah | 15:48 |

| m_conley | chr1sccoulson: ping | 19:45 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: ping | 19:59 |
| chrisccoulson | hi m_conley | 19:59 |
| chrisccoulson | sorry about the confusing names, i've been back and forwards between machines all day ;) | 19:59 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: hey - quick question for you. So it turns out that js-ctypes doesn't really like it when I invoke the nsPromptService from async callbacks. I need the prompt in order to get auth details from the user for address books that require user/pass. | 20:01 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: jorendorff in #jsapi came up with a patch, but it's blocked on a few other patches | 20:01 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: I've found a workaround that involves spawning my own window dialog with user/pass prompts. My question to you: should we prefer to backport jorendorffs patch, or should we go with my workaround? | 20:02 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, it might be easier to backport the changes. how big are they? | 20:02 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: jorendorff's patch: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671027 | 20:02 |
| ubot2 | Mozilla bug 671027 in js-ctypes "Assertion failure: !cx->outstandingRequests, at js/src/jsapi.cpp:6053 with reentering ctypes function callbacks" [Normal,New: ] | 20:02 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, yeah, i just read the scrollback on #jsapi | 20:05 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: thoughts? | 20:06 |
| janimo` | hello, can you point me to an update page describing patching mozilla packages? The links under Patching on this page are 404 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/KnowledgeBase | 20:06 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, it looks fairly trivial to backport | 20:07 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: cool, alright, i'll stick with the prompt service then. The patch indeed fixes the problem. | 20:07 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, ok, i'll start working on that tomorrow. i've got all your other bits to backport anyway :) | 20:07 |
| chrisccoulson | janimo`, i'm not sure if there are any wiki pages describing what you want | 20:08 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: oh, yes, those. :) | 20:08 |
| chrisccoulson | m_conley, do you think we'll be able to get people testing your extension this week? | 20:09 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: for read capability? Sure. | 20:09 |
| chrisccoulson | (once i've got all the changes backported) | 20:09 |
| chrisccoulson | cool | 20:09 |
| m_conley | chrisccoulson: I'm eager to hear about all the things I forgot to implement. :p | 20:10 |
| chrisccoulson | heh :-) | 20:10 |
| janimo` | chrisccoulson, what is the sequence of commands when patching configure.in ? I edit-patch for the actual patch, then edit-patch 99_configure.patch and in the subshell autoreconf but that fails to run | 20:17 |
| chrisccoulson | janimo`, there's no need to run autoreconf | 20:23 |
| janimo` | how do all configure files get regenerated? | 20:23 |
| chrisccoulson | janimo`, they're generated at build time. we don't even ship a pregenerated configure script | 20:27 |
| janimo` | chrisccoulson, ok, but some patches (in nspr at least) touch configure.in | 20:27 |
| janimo` | and there's a 99_configure patch which lead me to believe it was an autoreconf variation as done in many packages | 20:28 |
| janimo` | so at least for nspr the configure scripts are not upstream ones but patched | 20:28 |
| chrisccoulson | janimo`, oh, you're looking at nspr? | 20:28 |
| janimo` | chrisccoulson, trying to fix ARM FTBFS | 20:29 |
| janimo` | and generally hate it when after what should be a simple fix I get to fight autotools and this whole regeneration of config files. The number one thing I dislike about packaging, by far | 20:30 |
| chrisccoulson | i think 99_configure.patch is just the result of autoconf2.13 run | 20:30 |
| janimo` | as sometimes autoreconf works but now it even fails with undefined macro AC_OUTPUT_FILES | 20:31 |
| janimo` | whereas I think I have a new enough autoconf | 20:31 |
| janimo` | 2.68 namely | 20:31 |
| chrisccoulson | you need 2.13 | 20:33 |
| janimo` | chrisccoulson, thanks, I assumed when seeing 2.13, 'or newer' was implied . | 20:45 |
