LinuxephusQuestion: Does anyone here know in what manner Kopete can be used to send SMS via one's Yahoo account considering the option is Standard for most Instant Messenger programs except for that very option for Kopete?07:13
jussiLinuxephus: wrong place, that should be asked in #kubuntu :)07:24
Linuxephusjussi: Eh...I did ask that very question two days ago with Daskreech. And though his information was accurate apparently, I figured I'd ask here just in case. Am I to understand this's strictly for the subject of developing projects?07:27
valoriepackaging and developing, Linuxephus07:29
Linuxephusjussi: Understood Jussi. Apparently using a logical line of thought to seek further information on the subject doesn't from the "heart of Kubuntu" itself so to speak still doesn't qualify for being on subject (interesting). Be that as it may, let us continue elsewhere.07:33
valoriehi folks, I just filed a bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/clamz/+bug/88184207:40
ubottuLaunchpad bug 881842 in clamz (Ubuntu) "clamz reports an error, and does not download Amazon files" [Undecided,New]07:40
valorieit would be cool if somebody who uses clamz to download Amazon files would confirm that07:40
valorieAmarok lets me get the stuff, but the downloader bit isn't done yet, so I was trying to use clamz as a workaround07:41
valoriethere is a patch!07:41
valoriebut I don't know how to apply one to test it out07:41
markey_nokialyzehow does the updating of Chromium work in Kubuntu? I know it has this auto-updating feature, but I guess that's not used because it would break packaging?08:43
bambeehi08:43
markey_nokialyzeor how do I ugrade it anyway?08:43
markey_nokialyzeto Chromium 1508:43
* markey_nokialyze has used the Daily Snapshots for some time, it worked fine mostly, but sometimes stuff broke. too risky08:44
apacheloggermarkey_nokialyze: install google chrome I guess09:22
apacheloggeror look for a PPA that has v1509:22
markey_nokialyzethanks09:22
markey_nokialyzenot that the differences are huge...09:23
markey_nokialyzethey do incremental git snapshots and release them, every 6 weeks09:23
micahgmarkey_nokialyze: it goes with the Ubuntu archive, Chromium 15 should land later today or Thursday hopefully09:25
micahgppa:chromium-daily/stable should have 15 soon as well09:26
_Groo_guys can we include a patch to remove this stupid code until its fixed upstream? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27503313:41
ubottuKDE bug 275033 in khtml "Spurious warning from Konqueror (log in with the username "undefined")" [Normal,New]13:41
_Groo_its driving me nuts!13:43
_Groo_just remove this commit https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdelibs/repository/revisions/3bbd4496bc8a01e80df61763bfd0347e8ba7f09a/diff/kioslave/http/http.cpp13:44
* apachelogger thinks if it is a bug it should be fixed13:44
_Groo_apachelogger: this commit doesnt actually add any security, just bugs the user to no end.. thing of UAC :P13:45
apacheloggeryeah13:45
apacheloggerso13:45
apacheloggerit should be fixed13:45
_Groo_apachelogger: since it thinks ALL non authenticated opendesktop calls are a attack, it bugs you if you use choqok, GHNS, plasmoids, Amarok, etc etc13:46
_Groo_apachelogger: what exactly should be fixed?13:46
apacheloggerwhatever is wrong with it13:47
_Groo_apachelogger: IMHO this commit wasnt well thought through13:47
_Groo_apachelogger: it brings more pain then it fixes13:47
* _Groo_ thinks he could insert a phonon joke just about now but he wont, he doesnt want to bug apachelogger today ;)13:48
apacheloggeroh, I disagree auth spoofing is a very common attack method amongst script kiddies13:48
_Groo_apachelogger: i know, but the code doest validate anything, its just stupid like UAC.. hey grannie, are you sure you want to open (insert whataver here), since you openned choqok to see twitter?13:49
apacheloggeryeah13:50
_Groo_apachelogger: the intention was for konqueror, but this code is used in non browsers!13:50
apacheloggerI am not discussing the bug13:50
_Groo_apachelogger: what can be done? it was fine security wise till 4.6.513:51
apacheloggerit can be fixed13:51
_Groo_apachelogger: then someone decided that kde wasnt bugging the user for windows standards13:51
_Groo_apachelogger: and decided to raise the bar XD13:52
* apachelogger does not have this warning13:52
_Groo_apachelogger: do you have opendesktop user enabled in kde?13:52
apacheloggerhow would I know13:52
_Groo_systemsettings, account details, opendesktop13:53
_Groo_social desktop sorry13:53
apacheloggerand what does that do?13:53
_Groo_not open desktop13:53
_Groo_the description it next to the buttons13:53
_Groo_its been there forever13:54
_Groo_apachelogger: you are using kde right? ;)13:54
apacheloggersomtimes13:54
apacheloggerit does not mean that I use all the stuff people try to shove down my throat13:55
_Groo_apachelogger: we need to eat our own dog food13:55
_Groo_apachelogger: at least test the features :)13:55
apacheloggeryeah13:55
_Groo_apachelogger: i even use phonon for god sakes (i couldnt resist)13:55
apacheloggerI do not see the feature13:56
_Groo_apachelogger: what you mean you dont see?13:56
apacheloggerI do not see any benefit from this13:56
_Groo_apachelogger: ah13:56
_Groo_apachelogger: it allows you to rate the plasmoids, use the social plasmoid, hum.. let see what else.., ah yes, use the open desktop twitter like functions... hmmm social stuff13:57
apacheloggerI have no idea how rating is social and all the other stuff is not very useful considering I do not socialize on opendesktop13:57
apachelogger_Groo_: so, I think the bug is with the opendesktop foo13:58
apacheloggeror the heuristics in the http thing are broken13:58
apacheloggerat any rate it requires an actual fix13:59

Riddellanyone want to package calligra beta?  they're sad we don't have it available14:42
freglRiddell: question... I just used apt-get source qt-at-spi, rebuilt it, installed it and some of the crashes I used to have were gone. it changed the size of the package and installed to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/plugins/accessiblebridge/libqspiaccessiblebridge.so insted of /usr/lib/qt4/plugins/accessiblebridge/libqspiaccessiblebridge.so ... any idea why? 14:42
yofelRiddell: _Groo_ said something about having some calligra packaging lying around14:46
Riddell_Groo_: do you have some?14:48
Riddellfregl: hmm, the directory looks like multiarch, but a bit surprising for it to appear in a recompile14:49
Riddellhmm, no didier to ping14:50
freglRiddell: yeah, that's what I wanted to do, but he was gone14:51
freglI got a strange crash in XAtom stuff and wanted to get at least sane debug output. that's why I rebuilt and then it was gone...14:51
RiddellI wonder if something has changed in our qt package since the qt-at-spi package was last uploaded14:52
_Groo_Riddell: just did14:54
freglRiddell: yeah, if re-uploading it would fix bugs because of some bic issue it would be nice. I don't know. Logging in to unity and back into kde brought me the crashes back, so I was annoyed enough to look at it.14:54
_Groo_Riddell: dpkg-deb: building package `calligra-dev' in `../calligra-dev_2.3.83+git20111025-0~padoka1_amd64.deb'. dh_gencontrol -pcalligra-others   dpkg-gencontrol: warning: package calligra-others: unused substitution variable ${shlibs:Depends} # only call dh_scour for packages in main if grep -q '^Component:[[:space:]]*main' /CurrentlyBuilding 2>/dev/null; then dh_scour -pcalligra-others ; fi dh_md5sums -pcalligra-others  dh_bu14:54
freglI'll try to poke didirocks14:55
_Groo_the thing is14:55
_Groo_its not synced with debian, i did my own mojo14:55
yofelRiddell: if we're talking about qt-at-spi in oneiric, that was uploaded *before* qt was multiarch-ed14:55
_Groo_and its my regular build, aka, it works, it has everything but its not cleanup yet14:55
Riddell_Groo_: is it in a PPA or local?14:56
Riddellyofel: that explains it14:56
_Groo_you can see above i have a calligra-others which is my laziness talking14:56
_Groo_Riddell: its local but i can upload to ppa tonight14:56
=== tazz_ is now known as tazz
_Groo_Riddell: its ugly right now, im waiting for them to close the next beta, but it just works too, nothing broken14:57
Riddell_Groo_: groovy, to your own PPA?14:57
yofelwe've got some packaging in bzr for calligra - which seems like some outdated copy of the initial debian packaging14:57
_Groo_Riddell: yep or whatever you want me too.. i dont mind14:57
Riddell_Groo_: this is 2.4 Beta 3 (2.3.83) ?14:57
_Groo_Riddell: yeah from yesterday14:57
_Groo_Riddell: 2.3.83+git2011102514:57
Riddell_Groo_: lovely, will you e-mail boud when that's up?14:58
_Groo_Riddell: sure :) 14:58
_Groo_Riddell: one warning... i know you guys gonna wanna smack me14:58
_Groo_Riddell: but im lazy, and the files are still in a biiig move around places14:58
_Groo_Riddell: so i created a calligra-others14:58
Riddell_Groo_: ok, we'll just label it a testing only package and keep it to your PPA14:59
_Groo_Riddell: where i dump whatever /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/utils.mk list-missing tells me its missing, so i can move them properly over time14:59
_Groo_Riddell: so it has that extra package14:59
_Groo_Riddell: in a proper beta it will be eliminated14:59
yofelthat should probably move to dh7 some time too, but nvm for now14:59
_Groo_Riddell: its so its easier for me to keep track14:59
_Groo_Riddell: since i do it manually every week it would be a pain always tighten things up, and file ARE moving a lot, for ex, kexi is being rename, moved, etc, and a lot of others, so this beta packages wil see a lot of changes15:00
_Groo_Riddell: but its all controled, so a final build wont be affected :)15:01
_Groo_Riddell: yofel can get away with packages cause he does dailies and puts everything in one big package :D15:01
_Groo_in neon :D15:01
yofel:P15:01
_Groo_yofel: hey its the only way to do it15:03
_Groo_yofel: it would break anything automatic if it were to be done by packages...15:03
yofelwell, no, but I'll agree that the other one is a PITA right now15:03
yofelbut in neon yeah, doing it any other way is unpractial15:03
_Groo_yofel: it would... calligra guys move and remove files a lot! its in a constant flux right now15:03
_Groo_and can someone FOR THE LOVE OF JOBS remove this thing!!! https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdelibs/repository/revisions/3bbd4496bc8a01e80df61763bfd0347e8ba7f09a/diff/kioslave/http/http.cpp15:05

kubotuapachelogger: You did something wrong... Try s/you/me/ or tell me "help sed"15:20
apacheloggerkubotu: orly?15:20
_Groo_apachelogger: which version of calligra?15:20
apacheloggerit's not like it changes a lot :P15:21
_Groo_apachelogger: it wont get fixed! the code removal its the fix itself... its just plain wrong the way it is15:21
_Groo_apachelogger: ah, you kidding right?15:21
apacheloggerkidding about what?15:23
_Groo_apachelogger: that calligra doesnt change a lot15:25
apacheloggernot at all15:27
apachelogger_Groo_: what did change much recently?15:27
_Groo_apachelogger: the entire kexi naming and parts of the code15:27
_Groo_apachelogger: kword / kspread / no more, changed name and code15:28
_Groo_apachelogger: parts of the kross and the flake infrastructure was shiofted around, disabled or removed15:28
_Groo_apachelogger: let me see.15:28
_Groo_apachelogger: lots of stuff going on :D15:28
_Groo_apachelogger: also flow and braindump are new packages and code15:31
_Groo_apachelogger: in constant flux... i believe flow will be a killer app once is ready15:31
_Groo_apachelogger: only visio clone which is actually usable, dia is a mess15:31
_Groo_apachelogger: what version is the debian repo? can you paste it here? wanna check it out15:35
* apachelogger goes Oo15:35
apacheloggercalligra != koffice15:35
apacheloggerso I was talking about debian package for calligra15:35
apacheloggerthus all you said does not apply proofing me not kidding :P15:36
apachelogger_Groo_: just google it15:36
_Groo_apachelogger: you really like to bullie me dont you :P15:37
_Groo_apachelogger: about the packaging.15:37
_Groo_apachelogger: it moves/renames/removes packages on a weekly basis... its a nightmare to follow15:38
_Groo_apachelogger: for ex, all *kexi* are gone, so are kword/kspread/kwhataver... changed names, libs and the like15:38
_Groo_apachelogger: from a packager point of you its a pain to follow15:38
_Groo_view*15:38
_Groo_calligra is getting better by the day :)16:19
ulyssesAnyone has ide why can't I compile libqapt from source on Debian Squeze? error: http://paste.kde.org/138079/17:04
ulysses(source code was downloaded from KDE mirrors, it's libqapt 1.2.2 stable)17:05
debfxulysses: that method got added in Qt 4.7 but squeeze only has 4.6.317:09
ulyssesdebfx: thanks17:10
BarkingFishguys, do we still have support anywhere whatsoever for v4l1?  Just a thought, was just speaking to a dude in #ubuntu who was compiling drivers for his webcam, which needed videodev.h - and we don't have it anymore from the looks of it.17:12
debfxyou could just comment out the method calls since they don't change the functionality17:12
debfxBarkingFish: I think v4l1 has been dropped from the kernel17:12
BarkingFishdang. The problem is, debfx, that there are still drivers which companies haven't rebuilt for webcams and stuff which rely on it.  I think we should have some support somewhere for it, at least until the drivers for these cams are rebuilt.17:13
BarkingFishThe guy was trying to compile a driver for a microdia webcam, and the compile was breaking on linux/videodev.h - no such file or directory17:14
macois that v4l1? if so, it hasnt existed in the linux kernel in a year17:14
maco(at least)17:15
debfx"V4L1 support was dropped in kernel 2.6.38."17:15
BarkingFishit went out apparently in the 2.6.38 kernel series17:15
debfx:)17:15
BarkingFishso not that long ago, I only came off a 2.6.38 kernel when I moved to Oneiric17:15
macooh recenter than i thought17:16
_Groo_Riddell: just tested new calligra packages, they are all working fine17:16
macomaybe it was just deprecated earlier?17:16
_Groo_Riddell: my version has calligra mobile and calligra active too17:16
macocuz i remember skype being angry on maverick about my webcam being v4l2 only17:16
_Groo_Riddell: its up to you guys to decide if they should be included in a oficial version17:16
ulyssesdebfx: I compiled libqapt, however compiling Muon dailed due to the kdelibs version (4.4.5, at least 4.5.0 needed)17:20
ulyssesI give up, it was just an experiment, a hungarian user asked if muon is compatible with Debian17:23
ulyssesI won't say him that he should use testing or unstable, best using stable for beginners17:24

ScottKSounds like a lightdm bug.22:01

dacresnihey how do I setup automatic crash reporting or saving on Oneric Osolot ? i want to record the bactrace on kernel panics 22:14
ScottKapachelogger: True, but since it's default in Ubuntu now, if someone whats to have both installed and log into one or the other, it really ought to work.22:16
apacheloggerScottK: sure, however there is greater annoyance in such a setup22:21
