trinikronohey bugsquad i have a bug 31598802:08
ubot4Launchpad bug 315988 in checkgmail (Ubuntu) "CheckGMail doesn't save password (affects: 4) (heat: 24)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/31598802:08
trinikronolol what happens is that it started back happening02:08
trinikronoshould i close this bug and create a new one02:08
trinikronoor go ahead and triage this old one02:08
Exodustrinikrono, let me install and verify for you?02:40
trinikronook great02:41
trinikronoi am wondering about the triage process though02:41
Exodusthat is built on perl02:41
trinikronoyes02:41
ExodusDoes it through any debug information?02:41
Exodustrinikrono, doesn't even work for me02:44
trinikronoonly the line when you run from terminal02:45
Exodustrinikrono, didn't google recently move to OAUTH for all it's services? maybe this checkgmail isn't using it02:45
trinikronoi found a report on the upstream already02:45
trinikronohttps://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3406322&group_id=137480&atid=73866302:45
trinikronoit has a patch too02:45
trinikronoand it is working i tested it already02:45
ubot4trinikrono: Error: <Bugtracker.plugin.Sourceforge instance at 0x4306290> bug 3406322 not found02:45
trinikronomy question was if to use this old report which about something else02:45
trinikronoor to make a new one02:46
ExodusError: 401 Unauthorised02:46
trinikronoalso i checked the debian tracker but no one reported any bug like this02:46
trinikronoso i am just wondering what to do with this report, as you can see the reporter opened a bug i closed already02:46
Exodusi keep getting that02:47
Exoduscheckgmail -v02:47
trinikronojust patch it02:47
trinikronofrom the sourceforge bug02:47
ExodusWith that patch it's working02:56
trinikronoyes02:56
Exodusyou were referring to the saved password02:56
ExodusQuit and reopen?02:56
trinikronoi was speaking about the bug report in launchpad itself02:56
trinikronoif to work on that old one02:56
trinikronoor make a new one02:56
Exoduswell yes, that should fix it02:57
Exodusalthough it needs triaging02:57
trinikronowell that is what i am trying to do here02:57
ExodusThe actual problem described is wrong02:57
ExodusIt does not do that for me02:57
ExodusBecause the field is never blank02:58
charlie-tcatrinikrono: I would suggest closing that old report and opening a new one due to the changes in the applications02:58
Exodus+102:58
trinikronocharlie-tca: thank you02:58
Exodusand get that patch linked in the new ticket02:58
trinikronoyes02:58
charlie-tcayes, please do add the patch02:58
trinikronowell its on the upstream tracker02:59
charlie-tcaand have Exodus confirm that the patch works to fix the issue02:59
trinikronocharlie-tca: what do you think about a title02:59
Exodustrinikrono, link me the new bug and i'll be happy to confirm03:00
charlie-tcaIs it the same? checkgmail does not save password ?03:00
trinikrononope03:00
trinikronoits broken03:00
trinikronobroken since today (fix attached)03:00
charlie-tcasorry, really tired and missed half the discussion03:00
trinikronothats the title from the sourceforge tracker03:00
Exodusthe former bug is invalid now03:00
trinikronothing is i am not seeing it in debian as yet03:01
trinikronoo.o03:01
charlie-tcabroken how?03:01
charlie-tcaIt doesn't have to exist in debian, it exists in Ubuntu03:01
trinikrono1sec03:01
Exodusthey can get it from Ubuntu03:01
trinikronoit says on the terminal03:02
trinikronoUnable to find gmail_ik ... full message text won't work :(03:02
trinikronoand does not login03:02
trinikronoso it does not work totally03:02
charlie-tcacheckgmail does not login03:02
charlie-tcacheckgmail does not login; can't find gmail_ik03:03
trinikronoi am thinking to login under oneiric and report it03:03
charlie-tcaWhat are you logged into now?03:04
trinikronolucid03:04
charlie-tcaYeah, I would go either natty or oneiric03:04
charlie-tcabut you can also add a comment that it is still valid in Oneiric, too03:05
trinikronowell if i report it in oneiric that should cover everybody03:05
charlie-tcaWith the patch, if it can get pushed in, it could be fixed in Oneiric, and then SRU'd to lucid03:05
ExodusI'm reporting from Oneiric03:06
trinikronocharlie-tca: what about debian?03:06
trinikronohggh recommened i look at them since they seem to be more active than the upstream project03:07
charlie-tcawhat about it? You can forward the upstream if you want to, but get it reported and triaged in Ubuntu to get it fixed03:07
charlie-tcaDon't send it straight to sourceforge, instead upstream it to debian03:07
trinikronoits in sourceforge already03:07
charlie-tcabut it won't make oneiric then, it might make it into P03:07
charlie-tcaIt is usually better to upstream to debian, if they are active in the app. Debian maintainer will then forward it to the actual source03:08
charlie-tcaso, one of you report it, one of you triage it, then forward it to Debian03:09
trinikronocharlie-tca: can i ask how does a bug get fixed after we triage something?03:12
trinikronoi realised in some cases thats why its better to report to debian03:13
charlie-tcaIf it has a patch, the debian maintainer decides whether or not to apply the patch at that level. If they don't use it, Ubuntu devs can apply it for us only03:13
charlie-tcaIf it doesn' t go to debian, Ubuntu devs apply the patch locally.03:14
trinikronobut its better to check debian first?03:14
charlie-tcaIt is more work if the patch is local only03:14
trinikronook03:14
charlie-tcaIt is better to upstream the bug to debian03:14
trinikronoerr that would mean to report it from debian also03:15
charlie-tcaMany times the Debian maintainer and the Ubuntu developer are the same person03:15
trinikronook03:15
charlie-tcano, it means sending the report to them03:15
trinikronoso i can open a bug report and just put a link to he ubuntu bug?03:16
charlie-tcaLike this - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream03:16
charlie-tcausually you just copy the ubuntu report to an email to debian bug reporting03:17
trinikronosubmit@bugs.debian.org03:27
trinikronoand do that after i make the report03:27
trinikronoExodus: you said you was using oneiric to test the checkgmail package?03:49
trinikronoi patch the file, now it wont show on the screen with unity 2d lol!03:50
trinikronoand it said 401 unauthorised03:50
trinikronocharlie-tca: ping03:50
trinikronowell i guess thats something to report lol03:51
Exodustrinikrono, yes03:55
Exodustrinikrono, I applied the patch and it's working in oneiric03:55
trinikronoExodus: are you using unity?03:56
Exodustrinikrono, gnome-shell03:56
Exodustrinikrono, let me test in Unity03:56
trinikronoteehee03:56
trinikronowell do i have a suprise for you03:56
trinikronothats two more bugs to file03:57
Exodustrinikrono, it doesn't show on Unity heh, although that's not exactly a bug, it's a feature03:58
ExodusI mean there's nothing wrong with the app, it's just a gnome app, not a Unity app (so to speak)03:58
Exodusgnome-shell is more compatible with gnome classic than Unity is03:59
ExodusIn that sense gnome-shell docks it properly but Unity doesn't.03:59
ExodusIt's still running, just doesn't show anywhere.03:59
ExodusReport it, I'll confirm03:59
trinikronoExodus: lol i am trying to see if i can whitelist it but03:59
ExodusAlthough this should get to upstream04:00
trinikronowhich one its totally not working in unity04:00
ExodusAnd it's an effort they have to do to make it work with Unity04:00
trinikronoeven with the patch04:00
trinikronolol04:00
trinikronoits a lucky thing you had gnome shell installed Exodus04:01
ExodusYeah heh04:02
Exodustrinikrono, what's your launchpad profile? I have to go, I'll look for the bugs in your profile to confirm later.04:03
trinikronoi think i have a way to work it, give me a few i think we have two bugs to triage04:03

SwitchDKHi ubuntu-bugs, i was hoping somebody could spare a moment to help me with the HowToTriage page.18:26
SwitchDKi'm a very new member and wanted to learn more about the search function (advanced) which is referred to in the HowTo18:27
SwitchDKbut (slightly embarrassing) I am unable to find the Advanced Search functionality18:29
SwitchDKwould somebody be able to give me some hints on how to find it18:31
roadmrSwitchDK: go to a particular package, e.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/18:33
roadmrSwitchDK: "Advanced search" will be right there under the search field18:33
roadmrSwitchDK: this also works for a project, for instance to search bugs in Ubuntu as a whole: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/18:34
SwitchDKaha, i get it now. many thanks for taking the time to answer imy question.18:36

bil21alin which pakage should we report the bug  of ALL SETTING??19:10
hggdhbil21al: what is "ALL SETTING"?19:34
bil21ali think this bug is dead  +bug/13768820:04
charlie-tcabug 13768820:11
ubot4Launchpad bug 137688 in xchat (Ubuntu) "xchat doesn't remember "minimize to tray" setting (affects: 1) (heat: 10)" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/13768820:11
charlie-tcawhy?20:11
charlie-tcabil21al: why do you think 137688 is dead?20:13
bil21alcharlie-tca it is reported about in 2007 and its not fixed till now20:14
bil21ali think no body is working on it20:14
charlie-tcaThat doesn't make a bug invalid. According the launchpad, a user confirmed it still doesn't work in Oneiric. That makes it valid20:15
charlie-tcaIf you have the ability, feel free to fix it20:15
charlie-tcaBut no bug becomes invalid because it is old.20:15
charlie-tcaThere are still bugs from 2005 that are valid20:16
micahgthey just become more distinguished as they age :P20:16
bil21alhmmm ok20:16
hggdhlike wisky20:16
bil21alhmm20:16
charlie-tcaand people20:17
bil21alcharlie-tca: i will fix it but unfortuantly i am not a programmer so but i will be so when i will be a programmer than i will.20:18
charlie-tcaThere has always been more bugs than developers. They must fix the most important bugs first.20:18
hggdhbil21al: most bugs will have noboy working on them -- there are a total of ~ 800k bugs, and there are *NOT* 800k developers. Not even near... but the bug still exists. We do not close bugs because nobody is working on them20:18
hggdhcharlie-tca: heh. we are in sync, it seems :-)20:18
charlie-tcahggdh: great minds...20:19
hggdhand all that ;-)20:19
bil21alhmmm ok hggdh thanks for increasing my info i didnt knew that20:19
hggdhcharlie-tca: also, I guess I would be rather distinguished...20:19
hggdhbil21al: our pleasure20:20
charlie-tcadistinguished is very good :)20:20
micahghggdh: Ubuntu only has ~92k open :)20:20
charlie-tcastill don't have that many developers, though ;)20:21
hggdhmicahg: oh, we are doing much better then! ;-) but, to be picky, I stated a "total of 800k", did not state they would be open20:21
micahghggdh: still, I'd say Ubuntu only has ~500k of those20:22
charlie-tcadoesn't 851??? mean at least 851000 now?20:23
micahgcharlie-tca: yes, but that's in all of launchpad which has thousands of projects in addition to Ubuntu20:26
charlie-tcaOh, I thought each project started at 1, but I guess they don't.20:28
micahgcharlie-tca: nope, single bug database for everything, that's why you can have multiple project/distro tasks on a bug20:31
charlie-tcaI am still learning :)20:31
micahgcharlie-tca: we all are :)20:31

bdmurrayRedSingularity: I used \d+ there instead of a specific line number22:37
RedSingularitybdmurray: what does that d+ do?22:39
bdmurrayRedSingularity: matches any digit one or more times22:39
RedSingularitybdmurray: ok and that needs to be escaped I assume?22:40
RedSingularityi see the '\' there.22:40
bdmurrayRedSingularity: no the \ makes d a special character22:40
bdmurrayd is generally just a d22:40
bdmurraybut with the \ in front of it it becomes any digit22:41
