seb128hey there07:11
seb128hey tkamppeter07:11
RAOFseb128: Hey there!  How's the summit going?07:22
seb128hey RAOF, summit was nice, the conference part is over though, it's bofs and hacking now07:23
RAOFAh, cool.07:23
RAOFseb128: Would you like me to disable the cairo-gl backend in cairo?  When were you planning to do it?07:24
micahgseb128: did you get my email about gir-1.2-json-glib?07:24
tkamppeterRAOF, did mterry ask you to add a symbols file to the shared lib of colord, for the MIR?07:24
seb128RAOF, I did that yesterday?07:24
RAOFseb128: Ah, excellent.07:25
seb128micahg, yes but I was travelling and then forgot about it07:25
micahgseb128: k, well, if you get a chance, I'm happy to do the legwork either way07:25
RAOFtkamppeter: It's already *got* a symbols file.  Let me check the bug.07:25
seb128micahg, I guess I failed to see the issue07:27
RAOFtkamppeter: There's no request on the MIR that I can see - just asking kees to do a security review.07:28
seb128micahg, the packages from the list you have just need a trivial update07:28
micahgseb128: yeah, they can either be updated or the old binary can be removed (since the new one provides the old one)07:28
seb128micahg, we can drop the real binary to let the provide work while they are being rebuilt though07:28
seb128micahg, both I would say07:29
seb128the binary should be dropped but the rdepends should be fixed for oneiric07:29
micahgok, couchdb-glib is FTBFS at the moment due to the binary07:29
micahgseb128: so, if it's ok, later today, I'll file a bug for the packages that need to be fixed and one to drop the binary?07:30

pittiand you can't click or keypress08:13

pittiI now have a letter icon with a plus in my panel which collects all notify-osd notifications, and I manually have to clean them every time08:27

pittiseb128: no "unity" any more; and the GNOME upstream one will be called "gnome"?08:59
pittii. e. there notify-osd should _not_ start?08:59
ricotzseb128, hi, i will check totem later, thanks08:59
seb128pitti, correct08:59
seb128pitti, the upstream one are gnome and gnome-shell09:00
didrockspitti: sorry, with nux building, my laptop is slow as hell09:02
didrockspitti: so, the migration plan is:09:03
didrocks- you can't execute anymore (for this release and LTS) the "gnome.desktop" session09:03
didrocksyou are transitionned to ubuntu.dekstop09:03
didrocksdesktop*09:03
didrocks- gnome-shell.desktop launch the gnome-shell session09:03
didrocks- gnome-fallback is the gnome-panel session with metacity09:04
didrocks- gnome-classic is the gnome-panel + compiz (and eventually degrade to metacity)09:04
didrocks(for post LTS gnome-shell will be renamed gnome.desktop)09:06
chrisccoulsondidrocks, if you have the latest thunderbird now, you can change the message indicator to inbox-only mode09:07

seb128jibel, german is not on the CD either13:14
davmor2kenvandine: streams is the word I'm after and couldn't think of13:15
seb128jibel, try spanish13:15
jibelseb128, ok13:15
kenvandinedavmor2, ok... well the new gwibber does that13:15
zygamvo, would you object if I re-wrote setup.py with setuptools and had a look at debian packaging -- it seems overly complex13:15
alex3fmvo: sorry, power outage here; yes, just by running ./s-c-gtk313:15
davmor2kenvandine: it does, does it? is this a trunk version?13:16
kenvandineit has since i first uploaded it...13:16
kenvandinethe buttons on top change streams13:16
zygamvo, I'd like to split the debian packaging if possible, we could keep a branch with packaging (and perhaps the data file, but that could also be in another branch) and merge the tree while building13:16
davmor2kenvandine: Yeah I think he means adding his own one per account etc13:17
kenvandineyou mean multi-column?13:17
kenvandineor filtering, so you can see replies for just a single account?13:18
alex3fmvo, complete output http://pastebin.com/szJMM5jV13:18
kenvandinedavmor2, i want to bring back multi-column view, but we don't have a design for it13:20
kenvandineand since feature freeze is tomorrow, that isn't going to happen13:20
davmor2kenvandine: I'm just checking with him13:21
kenvandinei have an idea for filtering by account13:21
Laneydo you have twitter list support?13:21
kenvandinebut on the fence on implementing it13:21
kenvandineLaney, well sort of... it isn't in the new UI :/13:21
mvozyga: sure, go ahead, a move to dh_python2/dh7 would be very welcome13:21
Laney:-)13:21
kenvandinegwibber does and it has all the data ;)13:21
mvozyga: arch-build can go away too13:21
kenvandinei have a branch where i started trying to display it... but it made me decide we need to do some refactoring...13:22
zygamvo, I'm not familiar with dh_python2 but perhaps that's the right time to learn, I do all our linaro/lava packaging with python-support as that is compatible back to 10.0413:22
kenvandinewhich isn't likely to happen right now13:22
Laneyisn't architecture fun? :P13:23
kenvandineyup :)13:23
kenvandinegwibber has so many variations of types of data to display13:23
kenvandineso the code ends up looking terrible trying to shift things around depending on the data type13:24
kenvandinei need to create different tile widgets13:24
kenvandineand change out the widget depending on the data13:24
kenvandinewhich will be a huge improvement...13:24

mterryseb128, the /usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm fix should have happened already.  That was due to some buildsystem package setting libexecdir to a duplicated directory.  I believe I saw a fix go by for that in oneiric.  If you rebuild the package, do you see the dup directory?17:28
seb128mterry, yes17:29
seb128mterry, ./usr/lib/lightdm/lightdm/gdmflexiserver17:29
mterryseb128, hrm.  Well, I'm loathe to say it's a bug in lightdm, since that's the PKGLIBEXEC that configure gives17:29

seb128charlie-tca, no, I though robert_ancell said it was supposed to fixed17:31
seb128or maybe it was with the unity greeter17:31

charlie-tcaThanks, will update the bug17:32

seb128Makefile:pkglibexecdir = $(libexecdir)/lightdm17:32
seb128Makefile:libexecdir = ${prefix}/lib/lightdm17:32
seb128that seems buggy indeed17:33
mterryseb128, that's because Ubuntu differs from most systems for libexecdir.  Most don't add the package name.  The package change I thought I saw go by dropped that delta17:33
mterryBut I guess I was misreading17:33
seb128mterry, right, usually our libexecdir is /usr/lib/<component>17:35
seb128mterry, but I'm not sure what pkglibexecdir is17:35
seb128usually things just install to libexecdir17:35
tkamppeterjasoncwarner_, hi17:35
mterryseb128, my understanding (and I've not been on a non-Ubuntu system for a while) is that on non-Ubuntu systems, libexecdir is /usr/lib and pkglibexecdir is /usr/lib/<component>17:35
jasoncwarner_seb128: be down in a minute17:36
seb128jasoncwarner_, ok17:36
mterryseb128, so pkglibexecdir would be the correct place to install utility binaries normally, which is why I chose it17:36

micahgI fixed gnome-shell in the archive before22:53
AfC[sorry, was eating breakfast]22:53
lifelessmicahg: sure, I wasn't meaning to say you hadn't, just that there (A) are/were versioned deps in play, and (B) for those packages changing the library won't help :)22:53
micahglifeless: right, which is why I think seb128 wanted the rdepends actually fixed (transitioned to the new binary)22:54
AfCmicahg: if I remember lifeless correctly, a workaround would be to remove the Conflicts line from the new gir-1.2-json-1.0, telling it not to conflict on old gir-1.2-json-glib-1.022:54
lifelessmakes sense to me22:54
lifelessAfC: nope, the conflicts thing is a distraction22:55
lifelessAfC: (it should be breaks, but it doesn't bear on why you had trouble)22:55
lifelessmicahg: oh, while you're in the area - it should be breaks/replaces, no ?22:55
AfCmicahg: [just fyi, my problem is that this is causing gnome-shell to be held back; if I do a dist-upgrade it wants to remove most of the GNOME stack and replace it with Compiz etc. A bit extreme :)]22:55
micahglifeless: if it's versioned, yes22:55
micahgthat change was made in Debian though22:56
lifelessheh, doesn't mean its right :)22:56
AfCIndeed :)22:56
lifelessstill, I'll get out of your hair; I'm only commenting here cause AfC is a friend and was stuck22:56
micahgAfC: yeah, I haven't done much with the gnome3 PPA, but I suppose I could backport the gnome-shell from the archive after feature freeze (too much to do beforehand)22:56
micahglifeless: indeed, I should file a bug :)22:57
AfCmicahg: well this appears to have cropped up because someone updated the gnome3 package in the PPA22:57
AfC[which I'm all in favour of, of course :)]22:58
micahgAfC: well, if json-glib isn't in the GNOME3 PPA, then you'll have the problem of reverting all these fixes for the transition since natty's version has the old binary22:58
* AfC looks22:59
AfCgir1.2-json-1.0 in PPA22:59
AfC0.13.4-2~natty122:59
micahgyep, so it's been backported, ok then22:59
AfCmicahg: [which is what I can't install]23:00
micahgAfC: right, is the gnome-shell version in the PPA behind the archive version?23:01
AfC"archive version"?23:01
AfCnew(?) gnome-shell depends gir1.2-json-1.0; lots of other things depend on old gir1.2-json-glib-1.0.23:04
AfCBut new gir1.2-json-1.0 conflicts gir1.2-json-glib-1.0 [which lifeless tells us not to worry about, but]  result of the dependency resolution is to uninstall epiphany, gnome-shell, etc. :/23:05
micahgah, ok, then it's just a matter of updating the other items23:05
micahgwell, someone could create a transitional package in the PPA for gir1.2-json-glib-1.0 which would fix the issue23:06
micahgor wait until the rest are updated and backport23:06
AfCIt's just weird that I've found myself backed into such a corner. Frustrating; either lots of people should be encountering this, or I've gone and done something wrong. But I don't think so.23:07
AfCI'd wait, but every dist-upgrade wants to hammer my system; as I'm surely getting closer to being unable to upgrade something important as a result I'm nervous is all.23:08
AfCmicahg: so you suggest I create a dummy / empty package called gir1.2-json-glib-1.0 to satisfy the dependencies of the older packages [as a workaround]?23:09
micahgAfC: that would fix the issue depending on how urgent it is, you'd have to change the conflicts/replaces to a versioned breaks/replaces in json-glib23:10

dobeyAfC: shouldn't it Provides: it, if it replaces it?23:16
lifelessdobey: not in general23:17
lifelessdobey: you only need provides for virtual packages23:17
lifelessdobey: e.g. 'mta' or 'httpd'23:17
lifelessdobey: virtual packages are no help if there are versioned depends, but can be used (as a bit of a hack) to ease transitions *IFF* there are no versioned depends.23:18
dobeyeh, isn't that basically what an empty binary package for transitioning is anyway?23:18
dobeyoh, right23:18
lifelessthats why empty binary packages are used, in fact :)23:18
dobeyi forgot apt/dpkg don't like verions with provides23:19
dobey:-/23:20
dobeywas that package renamed in debian or something?23:20
dobeyor just in a PPA?23:20
micahgrenamed in Debian and oneiric23:21
dobeyah ok23:21
lifelessdobey: versioned provides are different again :P but yes.23:21
dobeylifeless: yeah, one of my many frustrations with dpkg :)23:22
