muntiKubuwhat is this 4.6.5 all about when 4.7.2  is out?  I know it's your baby but it just puzzles me :(00:01
muntiKubunatty is not even LTS.  I would have understood  ( a bit ) if it was.00:04
Darkwing?00:05
DarkwingI know that for Oneiric that release in about a week is running 4.7.100:06
muntiKubuDarkwing: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-465-released-natty-updates00:07
DarkwingI know that more... major updates point forward then backport as needed.00:10
muntiKubuwhy would you downgrade natty/4.7.1 to 4.6.5?00:14
JontheEchidnayou get the bugfixes of the 4.6.5 packages without risking regressions from a new minor version of KDE00:15
JontheEchidnaless risky, if you care about stability00:15
JontheEchidnafor example, there's a very annoying taskbar bug in 4.7.0 and 4.7.1 that's not present in 4.6.x00:16
muntiKubuprobably fixed in 4.7.2?00:16
JontheEchidnahopefully00:16
JontheEchidnaputting 4.6.x in to natty officially offers bugfixes for those who are either not technical enough to manually add the PPA, and is quite a bit safer regression-wise00:17
JontheEchidna*who are either not technical enough to manually add the PPA, or are wary of regressions00:17
JontheEchidnato put it this way: you like the bleeding edge and probably won't care if 4.6.5 is in natty :P00:17
JontheEchidnabut there are those who don't know that much about computers, and this update will fix bugs with a much lower chance of introducing new ones00:18
DarkwingJontheEchidna: You going to be at UDS?00:19
JontheEchidnanope, school00:19
DarkwingDrat00:19
JontheEchidnaspeaking of which, I seem to have drifted off of mah homework00:19
Darkwing:)00:19
JontheEchidnaI'll procrastinate later...00:19
DarkwingmuntiKubu: Does that help answer your question?00:19
DarkwingI've always wanted to be a precrastinator... But I never got around to it.00:20
muntiKubuDarkwing: I guess so for those who still have 4.6.4.  those with 4.7.1 will not get it anyway. expecting 4.7.2 instead.  The timing is also puzzling since we'll have 11.10 in a few days00:24
DarkwingSpeaking as a non programmer with Kubuntu, that might have to do with timing of the release cycle we follow and time for backports within getting ready for the next release.00:26
DarkwingI'm not 100% sure about that but, the timing seems to be about right when it comes to freezes within the release cycle.00:27
ScottKRelease was just a little to early this time to get 4.7.2 in.00:28
muntiKubuIIRC Kubuntu would have you rather upgrade to 11.10 instead00:28
ScottKmuntiKubu: 4.6.5 is in natty-updates, so you can at least get that.00:28
DarkwingAFAIK you can update KDE within Natty.00:28
muntiKubuScottK: even with 4.7.1 installed?00:29
ScottKOh. No.00:30
ScottKDowngrades aren't supported.00:30
muntiKubuDarkwing: I didn't say that you can't update KDE within natty00:30
DarkwingI assumed from your opening statement asking what all the of the 4.6.5 was all about when 4.7.2 was out... My bad.00:32
muntiKubuDarkwing: np :)00:32
Darkwing:)00:33
* Darkwing raises an eyebrow00:34
DarkwingScottK: Did that feel a bit strange to you?00:35
ScottKmunti's showed up here before, so not really.00:35
Darkwingahhhh, Okay. I've never had the pleasure.00:36
=== ScottK changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: Kubuntu: Friendly Computing | Final Freeze in effect | Archive Frozen | Pre RC ISOs need testing http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/build/kubuntu/all | UDS Ideas: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Specs/UDS-P | 4.7.2 Packaging: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/Packaging
DarkwingWhy is the android server where they keep the SDK updates and APIs so ssllooww?01:58
ScottKBecause you should be testing ISOs instead.02:01
DarkwingLOL02:02
DarkwingYeah, I should.02:02
DarkwingExcept, this is part of a test for a actual paying job.02:02
ScottKWith free software you help millions of users.02:02
DarkwingIt was the one thing I had not setup on my new computer.02:02
DarkwingYeah, But free software doesn't give my kids food :)02:03
ScottKMeh.  Saves on new clothing costs.02:04
Darkwinghehehe02:04
DarkwingAye, the finle RCs are ready for testing? The daily images?02:04
Darkwing*Final02:05
ScottKThis is the first crack at an RC image.02:06
ScottKOdds are we'll have respins, but we want to run them through testing to make sure we're at least in the ballpark.02:07
DarkwingThe daily images correct?02:10
DarkwingI've had too much coffee so I'll be up late.02:10
ScottKYes.02:12
DarkwingOkay, I'll look up how they want this done. I've not done this before :)02:13
DarkwingEach cycle I get deeper and deeper involved.02:13

DarkwingHow was the studing JontheEchidna?04:02
JontheEchidnawent ok04:02
DarkwingWhat you taking?04:02
DarkwingScottK: ISO testing... can it effectivly be done in a VM?04:03
macoi would think so04:04
macobe a pain to do on hardware over and over04:04
DarkwingAye it would04:05
ScottKDarkwing: yes.04:06
ScottKI abuse my netbook this way, but you aren't required to use real hardware.04:06
DarkwingI have an old netbook that I am going to give to my son... But I think VM would be simplier.04:07
Darkwingiso.qa.ubuntu.com doesn't use OpenID???????04:08

nigelbapachelogger: Noone :)10:37
nigelbYOu're a community member, you haz voting rights10:37
apacheloggeryeah, that does not mean we need to have all elections within one month of one year :P10:39
debfxvoting is kind of pointless if you don't know 3/4 of the candidates and they don't even tell you why you should vote for them ...10:41
apacheloggerthat too10:42
apachelogger7 seats10:43
apacheloggerawoga10:43
apacheloggerdebfx: actually you should totally write a mail about that, so that I can then start a flamewar with my reply to your mail10:45
jussidebfx: like the guy that has his wiki page point to LP and LP says something about his wiki page having more info that he tries to keep updated? 10:47
debfxapachelogger: lol10:53
debfxjussi: I would want the candidates to write a wiki page about who they are, why they are applying and what they want to do on the council10:54
jussidebfx: ++10:55
jussidebfx: so not like this one: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MartinAlbisetti10:55
debfxyeah that one is great10:56
jussiits a circle!!10:58
jussi:P10:58
debfxof course sabdfl pre-selecting candidates without any kind of transparency doesn't help the election either10:58
nigelbjussi: lol, that guy made me laugh11:16
jussinigelb: yeah, was a bit strange11:17
nigelbjussi: I just poked some people I know to perhaps update their wiki.11:18
