| fregl | AlanBell: maybe you want to add the qt accessibility feed to the a11y planet http://labs.qt.nokia.com/category/labs/accessibility/feed/ | 10:52 |
|---|---|---|
| AlanBell | fregl: added, but nothing recent enough in that feed to make the front page | 11:16 |
| fregl | AlanBell: it's fine, we'll blog when there's real news :) | 11:45 |
| fregl | thanks | 11:45 |
| * joanie pings anyone who is listening ;) ;) | 12:39 | |
| joanie | So I just did a search of packages.ubuntu.com | 12:39 |
| joanie | Oneiric is shipping pygobject 3.0.0 | 12:39 |
| joanie | F16 is shipping 3.0.2 which is to my knowledge the latest stable version | 12:40 |
| joanie | On the Oneiric line above, stick a question mark at the end | 12:40 |
| joanie | ;) | 12:40 |
| joanie | The reason I'm asking is that there's a bug fix in pygobject 3.0.2 which Orca needs | 12:41 |
| Pendulum | stable tarball on the pygobject website says 3.0 as current stable release (I'm looking at http://live.gnome.org/PyGObject ) | 12:42 |
| joanie | Pendulum, follow that link | 12:44 |
| Pendulum | but I will look into it and see who to poke and see if we can get 3.0.2 into an update | 12:44 |
| joanie | http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygobject/3.0/ | 12:44 |
| Pendulum | yeah, now I see | 12:44 |
| Pendulum | so will see who I can find about that and poke | 12:45 |
| MrChrisDruif | Good spot joanie | 12:46 |
| * Pendulum has poked pitti | 12:47 | |
| Pendulum | I think he's likely the correct person | 12:47 |
| Pendulum | joanie: how soon is it going to break Orca if we don't fix it and can I get a brief description of why it's needed past the general? | 12:49 |
| Pendulum | (I just want as much information as possible in case I get asked) | 12:50 |
| joanie | because there's some bug fixes since 3.0.0 which Orca requires in order for rebinding of keybindings to work | 12:50 |
| joanie | and today is a GNOME stable release day | 12:51 |
| joanie | and I am going to make an Orca tarball for stable release | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | *nods* | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | okay | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | hopefully pitti will get back to me soon | 12:51 |
| joanie | and Ubuntu isn't shipping the stable release of pygobject 3.0 | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | right | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | they've got 3.0.2 in Precise so I'm not sure if there's a specific reason they haven't stuck it into an Oneiric update or not | 12:53 |
| joanie | anyhoo, in asking at the upstream level, it looks like I am "allowed" to bump Orca's minimum required version of pygobject 3 to the GNOME official stable version of that module (3.0.2) | 12:53 |
| joanie | i.e. because Orca stable is part of gnome stable. ditto for pygobject | 12:53 |
| joanie | if you follow what I'm saying | 12:53 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 12:53 |
| Pendulum | well, I've poked the person who has done all the most recent pygobject uploads. My guess is he's currently at lunch so hopefully he'll get back to me relatively soon :) | 12:55 |
| Pendulum | joanie: can you check to see if what needs to be fixed has already been done in https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/pygobject/+changelog ? | 13:23 |
| Pendulum | they've apparently already backported some patches | 13:24 |
| Pendulum | (and if they haven't already backported the one that effects Orca, are happy to do so) | 13:24 |
| joanie | k thanks! | 13:24 |
| * joanie looks | 13:24 | |
| joanie | This one for sure: http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/commit/?h=pygobject-3-0&id=611f58b99851328653af4930f188c33eccaa9f6f | 13:26 |
| joanie | I suspect this one is needed(ish) http://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/commit/?h=pygobject-3-0&id=0f1eb9fa0e7aa5e7c22dabc709c0dfb469e404f1 | 13:26 |
| AlanBell | both those look to be in | 13:26 |
| joanie | cool | 13:27 |
| joanie | and then you'll just have to change Orca's config.ac | 13:28 |
| joanie | because I'm bumping the minimum version there | 13:28 |
| joanie | wouldn't it be easier to just ship latest stable? | 13:28 |
| AlanBell | that would be a rolling release | 13:29 |
| Pendulum | AlanBell: where do you see that they're in? | 13:30 |
| AlanBell | * Add 00git_wrapper_ref.patch: When converting an object with transfer none, | 13:30 |
| AlanBell | make sure the wrapper owns a ref. (LP: #874299) | 13:30 |
| Pendulum | yeah, that one I saw | 13:30 |
| AlanBell | * Add 00git_allow_gboxed_properties.patch: Add the GBoxed type as valid type | 13:31 |
| AlanBell | to the gobject property helper. This fixes the "snippets" gedit plugin. | 13:31 |
| AlanBell | Patch taken from upstream git head. (LP: #877397) | 13:31 |
| Pendulum | ah, okay | 13:31 |
| * Pendulum wonders who can put in the patch for Orca's config.ac | 13:33 | |
| Pendulum | looks like it'll be a matter of poking Luke | 13:34 |
| AlanBell | are we getting a new orca in oneiric? | 13:34 |
| Pendulum | possibly | 13:35 |
| Pendulum | or, rather, I suppose we should ask Luke if he thinks it's worth doing :P | 13:35 |
| * Pendulum tends to be in favour of getting updates into things or at least available for them should people want them | 13:36 | |
| AlanBell | me too | 13:39 |
| AlanBell | my onboard themes got merged in earlier | 13:40 |
| AlanBell | bug 626064 | 13:49 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 626064 in onboard "onboard: add haptic feedback" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/626064 | 13:49 |
| AlanBell | Pendulum: what do you think of Simon so far? | 16:03 |
| Pendulum | AlanBell: I haven't installed yet | 16:14 |
| AlanBell | um, I meant the persona! | 16:32 |
| joanie | Anyone have any ideas if this reported bug is still valid? (I'm guessing not or we would have heard more about it from users and/or you) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585886 | 18:27 |
