| cjwatson | Finished drafting my specs. | 16:06 |
| cjwatson | Looked into the situation with .la files. I think it would be worth making a bit more of an effort to kill off the ones in Ubuntu which are harmful, but haven't published a report yet. | 16:06 |
| cjwatson | Experimented with doing a multiarch i386->amd64 crossgrade. I've uploaded several of the necessary patches and the rest are awaiting upload by others; after that I'll have another go ... | 16:06 |

| cjwatson | Some archive infrastructure work: moved a few jobs from ftpmaster to people, arranged for them to attempt to run earlier in the hour and retry later if need be, and filed an RT to allow the next similar chunk of work. | 16:06 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 892903 in partman-crypto (Ubuntu) "encrypted LVM install fails with "unsafe swap space detected"" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/892903 | 16:06 |

| barry | done. | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - Testing tracker | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - http://91.189.93.73 is usually up to date with what's in the branch | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - Got most of the UI working, you can now file testing results on it! | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - Spent most of Monday working on migration scripts and SSO integration to match the 30k users in the current DB with their LP accounts | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - Getting ready to use the test instance for alpha-1 testing | 16:07 |
| stgraber | - More UI improvements | 16:07 |

| stgraber | (done) | 16:08 |
| stgraber | (hopefully I'll be able to work a bit on my non-ISO tracker work items next week :)) | 16:08 |
| stgraber | oh, and if you have a few minutes to spare, please try and break the ISO tracker at http://91.189.93.73 | 16:08 |
| stgraber | I'm looking at the logs and fixing anything that breaks :) | 16:08 |
| cjwatson | since Brian's on holiday, I'll skip the bugs topic; if you have anything you're concerned about, that can be AOB :) | 16:08 |
| cjwatson | [TOPIC] Blueprints | 16:08 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Blueprints | ||
| cjwatson | Does anyone have blueprints they *haven't* finished drafting yet, or that haven't been approved? | 16:09 |
| * doko needs to finish two | 16:09 | |
| cjwatson | (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/~/+specs?role=drafter may help) | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | The deadline is this Friday, so please send me an IRC message or e-mail when you're done with those and I guess I'll substitute for Steve as approver | 16:10 |
| cjwatson | [TOPIC] AOB | 16:11 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: AOB | ||
| cjwatson | the multiarch crossgrade stuff I was playing with has the makings of being really cool :) | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | (I'm not doing anything clever myself, just filling in metadata really) | 16:12 |
| barry | cjwatson: can you describe more what it would allow us to do? | 16:12 |
| doko | like Multi-Arch: foreign attributes? | 16:12 |
| ev | cjwatson: the crash database hasn't been approved: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-p-crash-database | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | barry: upgrade from i386 to amd64 in-place | 16:12 |
| stgraber | oh, that reminds me I need to push quite a few more Multi-Arch:foreign changes to make upstart:i386 install on amd64 :) | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | doko: yeah, and a few more serious multiarchings | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | (like libapt) | 16:13 |
| barry | nice | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | ev: ack, thanks | 16:13 |
| ev | cheers | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | ev: if you're ready for it to be looked at, please mark it Review or Pending Approval | 16:13 |
| ev | oops! Thought I had done. That must be why Steve skipped it | 16:14 |
| ev | done | 16:14 |
| cjwatson | could be | 16:14 |
| cjwatson | barry: well, when I say in-place, it requires one reboot in the middle; hard to automate completely | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | (you need a 64-bit kernel in order to execute any 64-bit binaries) | 16:15 |
| barry | oh, that's so windows | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | heh | 16:15 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: I'm sure you can get rid of that extra reboot by installing qemu-user-static | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | I thought of that as I was typing it | 16:15 |
| stgraber | but that's going to make things a lot slower :) | 16:15 |
| stgraber | then you can try a crossgrade from i386 to armel on a x86_64 machine :) | 16:16 |
| stgraber | (would need some tweaks to load the binfmt stuff very very early though) | 16:17 |
| cjwatson | and you'd need to force binfmt-support to stay native-arch - doesn't sound so fun | 16:18 |
| cjwatson | you could crossgrade a chroot though | 16:18 |
| barry | that would actually be pretty interesting | 16:19 |
| cjwatson | anything else, or shall we finish early? | 16:20 |
| stgraber | nothing here | 16:20 |
| barry | i'm good | 16:20 |
| cjwatson | happy thanksgiving, those who celebrate it :) | 16:20 |
| barry | thanks! :) | 16:20 |
| doko | one of the faster meetings ... | 16:20 |

| greg-g | gema: awesome, that seems very useful! | 18:31 |
| greg-g | gema: and more exclamation marks, really | 18:31 |
| greg-g | :P | 18:32 |

| gema | hggdh: you missed the meeting, man | 18:32 |
| hggdh | greg-g actually does all ;-) | 18:33 |
| greg-g | though, I've been on hiatus for the past bit, mostly just hang out in -bugs now and help out when I can. Havne't been doing much concerted triage effort lately :( | 18:33 |
| hggdh | gema: yes, I did, very sorry | 18:33 |
| gema | hggdh: no problem, I told them you were busy | 18:33 |
| gema | greg-g: it is never late to come back whenever you feel like it | 18:33 |

| hggdh | :-) | 18:34 |

| gilir | I will go with the different items of the agenda from people who are here :) | 20:08 |
| stephen-smally | Hi, i'm here | 20:08 |
| gilir | just in time :) | 20:09 |
| gilir | [TOPIC] Plan for the website lubuntu.net | 20:09 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Plan for the website lubuntu.net | ||
| gilir | So, people expressed some concerns about the website | 20:10 |
| M0hi | gilir, Are we supposed/allowed to maintain a separate site for the OS ? | 20:10 |
| gilir | I think we are all agree that it needs some work :p | 20:10 |
| gilir | M0hi, you mean separate from the wiki page ? | 20:10 |
| michaelrawson | xubuntu & kubuntu have their own. | 20:10 |
| M0hi | gilir, yes | 20:11 |
| bioterror | kubuntu has own, so does xubuntu | 20:11 |
| gilir | yes, you can do more things than on the wiki | 20:11 |
| jmarsden|work | Terminology: GNU/Linux is the OS, Ubuntu is the distribution, Lubutu is the flavour. We can have a dedicated web site for the Lubutu flavour of Ubuntu, yes. | 20:12 |
| M0hi | Okies | 20:12 |
| michaelrawson | o/ | 20:12 |
| gilir | I put a page on the wiki, to gather some ideas : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Marketing/Website_Plan | 20:12 |
| gilir | yes michaelrawson | 20:13 |
| michaelrawson | I think amjjawad and morgaes were cooking up some prototypes for the site.... | 20:13 |
| michaelrawson | do they know about the page and were are they today? | 20:13 |
| michaelrawson | *where are they | 20:14 |
| gilir | yes, and rafael also have ideas about the website | 20:14 |
| gilir | I hope, I posted it on the mailing list | 20:14 |
| michaelrawson | okay, as long as they know. :) | 20:14 |
| gilir | we also discussed with Mario about this, I'll put our ideas also on the wiki | 20:15 |
| cjohnston | I would be willing to help with the website. Especially the getting it hosted by Canonical.. I have a good working relationship with IS | 20:15 |
| cjohnston | Not saying I can get it approved to be hosted, but if it does get approved, working with IS on making it happen | 20:15 |
| michaelrawson | While I can't web design as such, I can check for basic errors like spell checks . | 20:15 |
| gilir | thanks cjohnston :) hopefully we fixed our hosting problem recently :) | 20:16 |
| gilir | our main problem now, is more on the content and the technicals issues | 20:16 |
| cjohnston | Right | 20:16 |
| michaelrawson | and the layout. IMO. | 20:17 |
| gilir | ok, so I encourage every people who have ideas to put them on the wiki page | 20:17 |
| gilir | we can summarize them after | 20:18 |
| jmarsden|work | How the lubuntu.net web site relates to Lubuntu wiki content is also a major issue. Duplicating everything would be bad. | 20:18 |
| stephen-smally | we should redirect to the wiki for more specific infos | 20:18 |
| gilir | yes (for michaelrawson and jmarsden|work ) | 20:18 |
| gilir | IMO, wiki should be for documentation and team organization, and only hosted by the wiki | 20:19 |
| Yorvyk | So we need to decide what the Lubuntu.net is for | 20:19 |
| michaelrawson | maybe (like ubuntu) "best of the wiki" could be put in the official documentation? | 20:20 |
| stephen-smally | michaelrawson: agree, why not put the content in the main page (of the wiki) in the website | 20:20 |
| gilir | well for me wiki = wiki.ubuntu.com + help.ubuntu.com | 20:20 |
| michaelrawson | me too. but yelp (?) integrates with it (?) | 20:21 |
| gilir | michaelrawson, that's another problem :) to be able to have documentation offline on the system | 20:22 |
| gilir | well, many people who raised concerns about the website are not here :) | 20:22 |
| michaelrawson | move on to next topic? | 20:22 |
| gilir | so I propose to send a reminder on the mailing list | 20:23 |
| M0hi | Okies | 20:23 |
| gilir | and move to the next topic ? | 20:23 |
| M0hi | M0hi, No #action needed? | 20:23 |
| michaelrawson | agree gilir | 20:23 |
| stephen-smally | agree | 20:23 |
| gilir | [ACTION] Send a reminder about Website_Plan wiki page | 20:23 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Send a reminder about Website_Plan wiki page | 20:23 |
| bioterror | o/ | 20:24 |
| gilir | yes bioterror | 20:24 |
| bioterror | could the website be more like xubuntu and kubuntu has it?, Get Lubuntu, Get help & Support and Get Involved | 20:24 |
| bioterror | I think that's really good, also they have some tours and explanations what it is all about | 20:24 |
| bioterror | less is more | 20:24 |
| michaelrawson | o/ | 20:25 |
| jmarsden|work | bioterror: Post ideas to the Website_Plan page :) | 20:25 |
| bioterror | I will | 20:25 |
| gilir | why not, the subject is pretty open :) | 20:25 |
| gilir | yes michaelrawson | 20:25 |
| michaelrawson | xubuntu & kubuntu sites are VERY similiar...why not 'clone' a website for now and find and replace lubuntu instead of xubuntu? quick fix | 20:26 |
| M0hi | brb | 20:26 |
| michaelrawson | if you see what I mean. | 20:26 |
| michaelrawson | I'll put on wiki if nobody kills me. :) | 20:26 |
| gilir | we can probaly copy the design, but not the content | 20:27 |
| stephen-smally | michaelrawson: +1, i like the xubuntu site. gilir: obviously ;-) | 20:27 |
| gilir | but you write your idea on the wiki ;) | 20:27 |
| gilir | ok, next topic :) | 20:27 |
| gilir | [TOPIC] PowerPC ISO | 20:28 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: PowerPC ISO | ||
| gilir | There are some resquests for a powerpc ISO of lubuntu | 20:28 |
| stephen-smally | gilir: can we just built it with the ubuntu system? | 20:28 |
| gilir | fortunatly for this cycle, we have people willing to test the ISOs :) | 20:28 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, it's already build, we just need testers | 20:29 |
| stephen-smally | gilir: perfect | 20:29 |
| gilir | to test and validate the quality of the ISO | 20:29 |
| gilir | according to the mailing list, we have at least 2 testers, so it's just fine :) | 20:30 |
| Yorvyk | I can do that and have a couple of people interested - I'm trying tp persuade them to join the mailing list. | 20:30 |
| jmarsden|work | Is testing in an emulation environment like sheepshaver or pearpc likely to be useful? Or do we need real physical powerpc hardware? | 20:30 |
| gilir | Yorvyk, great :) | 20:30 |
| Yorvyk | jmarsden|work: Any testing is useful | 20:31 |
| gilir | jmarsden|work, if we have enough people to test on real hardware, it won't be necessary IMO | 20:31 |
| jmarsden|work | OK | 20:31 |
| gilir | don't forget that we have also i386 and amd64 to test ;) | 20:32 |
| bioterror | and probably soon ARM is coming | 20:32 |
| gilir | I'll do also a mail on the mailing to try to convince more people to do ISO testing | 20:32 |
| stephen-smally | ARM? would be great, but i think there aren't plans by Ubuntu... (i'm looking for setup the raspberry pi, a 25$ computer) | 20:33 |
| Yorvyk | Perhaps advertising outside the mailing list may help | 20:33 |
| gilir | bioterror, for ARM, we need testers, devices to test, and to create the images | 20:33 |
| M0hi | gilir, Lets get the whole list of testers so that it will be easy to contact the testing team | 20:33 |
| gilir | they don't exist yet, unlike powerpc ISO | 20:34 |
| bioterror | gilir, I could make a small invest thru dealxtreme. I have some interest | 20:34 |
| gilir | [ACTION] Send a mail about ISO testing to the mailing list for Alpha 1 | 20:34 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Send a mail about ISO testing to the mailing list for Alpha 1 | 20:34 |
| stephen-smally | gilir, i will be very happy to test the ARM iso (in a month +-), if necessary | 20:35 |
| Yorvyk | Should we send something to the news letter. It might reach more people. | 20:35 |
| gilir | ARM is a more complex subject, but we can discuss it next week | 20:36 |
| stephen-smally | allright | 20:37 |
| === jrib is now known as Guest67084 | ||
| gilir | [ACTION] Put an item about ARM images for next meeting | 20:38 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Put an item about ARM images for next meeting | 20:38 |
| gilir | ok, if the powerpc subject is over, let's move to the next one | 20:38 |
| gilir | [TOPIC] Old PC supporting or New Kernel for 12.04 | 20:39 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Old PC supporting or New Kernel for 12.04 | ||
| gilir | M0hi, if you are agree, I'll introduce the subject :) | 20:39 |
| M0hi | gilir, proceed =] | 20:39 |
| gilir | so there is an ongoing discussion about the PAE support on the kernel for 12.04 | 20:40 |
| gilir | currently, no decision was made by the kernel team | 20:40 |
| gilir | it's expected next week | 20:41 |
| gilir | also, we are unsure of the number of CPU affected by this | 20:41 |
| gilir | jmarsden|work, suggested a command to test it, but so far not so many reports | 20:42 |
| gilir | or we can assume that nobody is affected :) | 20:42 |
| bioterror | those computers that gets affected are mostly from the late 90's | 20:42 |
| gilir | well, I don't think we can do more for now, except doing the test | 20:43 |
| jmarsden|work | bioterror: How do you know this, and have you found any that can run 11.04 or 11.10 but do not have PAE? | 20:43 |
| bioterror | jmarsden|work, sorry, but I dont work at museum of old computers | 20:44 |
| stephen-smally | and, if i have a late 90's machine, i would install archlinux or something very scalable (you know, lubuntu is not so usable with 128 Mb ram, i've a machine like this, with a old AMD Athlon) | 20:44 |
| jmarsden|work | So we're at <gilir> or we can assume that nobody is affected :) | 20:44 |
| Sarvatt | first generation intel macbook was sold in 2006 and had a pentium M without PAE for instance, its not that old | 20:44 |
| wxl | oops am i too late? | 20:45 |
| bioterror | Sarvatt, my friend has one. it only supports 3GB of RAM | 20:45 |
| Sarvatt | it also wont boot ubuntu anymore if it goes in | 20:45 |
| Sarvatt | (sorry to interrupt the meeting) | 20:46 |
| bioterror | that was a good point | 20:46 |
| gilir | Sarvatt, any information is welcome, thanks :) | 20:46 |
| jmarsden|work | OK, all we can do is ask for more testing and watch for others doing similar investigation of which machines are affected. | 20:47 |
| gilir | +1 jmarsden|work | 20:48 |
| gilir | ok, so let's move to the next topic | 20:49 |
| gilir | 10 minutes left | 20:49 |
| gilir | [TOPIC] LxPanel developing status | 20:49 |
| === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: LxPanel developing status | ||
| gilir | stephen-smally, it's your turn :) | 20:49 |
| stephen-smally | Ok, ;-) | 20:49 |
| stephen-smally | Maybe you don't know this, but Lxpanel is pretty inactive | 20:50 |
| stephen-smally | (under the developing profile) | 20:50 |
| wxl | i would argue that lxpanel needs development in applets more than IT needs development | 20:50 |
| michaelrawson | +1, wxl | 20:51 |
| wxl | a ram monitor, for one | 20:51 |
| gilir | well, it needs maintainance + bug fixing at least :/ | 20:51 |
| Yorvyk | If it's not being developed nobody will provide applets for it | 20:51 |
| frankbooth | +1 gilir | 20:52 |
| jmarsden|work | stephen-smally: are you volunteering to take over lxpanel maintenance? | 20:52 |
| michaelrawson | python support for applets would be nice, but I won't get on to that now. Currently you have to do everyting in C, which is offputting. | 20:52 |
| wxl | well that's a good point Yorvyk but what would replace it? | 20:52 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, so, what's the point ? :) We know we have a panel problem :) | 20:52 |
| stephen-smally | Ok, i talked to pcman, wich is the main developer of lxpanel | 20:52 |
| stephen-smally | he's planning a rewrite of lxpanel in vala+gtk3 | 20:52 |
| gilir | yes, but we don't know when, he still have work to do for the filemanager | 20:53 |
| stephen-smally | yes, i know | 20:54 |
| gilir | IMO, we should keep lxpanel for now, try to fix it | 20:54 |
| gilir | and eventually, rewrite some parts in vala if we have time | 20:55 |
| stephen-smally | ok, i can do this, anyway | 20:55 |
| gilir | as we can mix C and Vala | 20:55 |
| stephen-smally | yes, we can, the build system will need some instruction, but it's possible | 20:55 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, but you have also others projects, don't forget :) | 20:56 |
| michaelrawson | Surely Vala makes C code, so we shouldn't have to mix? | 20:56 |
| stephen-smally | ;-), yes | 20:56 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, we still need a release of LSC | 20:56 |
| jmarsden|work | michaelrawson: You can rewrite all of lxpanel in Vala if you have the time and skills, otherwise, it can be migrated slowly, mixing vala with the existing C code :) | 20:57 |
| stephen-smally | anyway, i'm also available for lxpanel in vala | 20:57 |
| Yorvyk | 3 minutes to go | 20:57 |
| michaelrawson | jmarsden|work compile vala first, then compile C code? | 20:57 |
| stephen-smally | what's after us? | 20:57 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, thanks, but we should talk about LSC and LXScreeshot before planning development time on lxpanel | 20:58 |
| jmarsden|work | michaelrawson: Order doesn't matter, compile everything (C or Vala) -> object code, then link it together. | 20:59 |
| stephen-smally | ok, Lxscreenshot is already done, i can make a project and a release if needed | 20:59 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, no one, but we have too much items after this one :) | 20:59 |
| michaelrawson | okay, jmarsden|work, thanks for clarification. :) | 20:59 |
| wxl | i personally would rather see lxpanel developed than lsc/lxscreenshot, but that may be me | 20:59 |
| stephen-smally | gilir: so we can occupy a little the channel? XD | 20:59 |
| jmarsden|work | stephen-smally: Some of us are at work... | 21:00 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, it needs some polishing (like translation, command line support etc ...) but I can send you list | 21:00 |
| stephen-smally | wxl: i partially agree | 21:00 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, but yes, lxscreenshot is almost ready | 21:00 |
| stephen-smally | ok, if you want some interface improvements let me know ;-) | 21:01 |
| wxl | stephen-smally: my argument being that lxpanel is absolutely essential-- every user uses it. less people need lxscreenshot and scrot does the trick for those that do need it. plus synaptic does do the trick. | 21:01 |
| gilir | [ACTION] Send comments about lxscreenshot to stephen-smally | 21:01 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Send comments about lxscreenshot to stephen-smally | 21:01 |
| gilir | wxl, but having project half finished is not nice also | 21:02 |
| stephen-smally | wxl: i agree, so i'm available to help in lxpanel | 21:02 |
| wxl | +1 gilir | 21:02 |
| stephen-smally | gilir: yes, the situation is not so good, i'm the only who develop lsc | 21:02 |
| michaelrawson | just installed lxpanel, works brilliantly. | 21:02 |
| michaelrawson | stephen-smally I'm happy to help lsc if you can teach me roughly where stuff goes. | 21:03 |
| stephen-smally | michaelrawson: thanks, we can discuss it via mails | 21:03 |
| michaelrawson | yup. | 21:03 |
| gilir | stephen-smally, ok, so let's finish the meeting here, can we talk about lsc on #lubuntu just after ? | 21:03 |
| stephen-smally | of course | 21:04 |
| gilir | or mail if you prefer | 21:04 |
| stephen-smally | as you like, i prefer irc anyway | 21:04 |
| gilir | Yorvyk, sorry for your subjects, I report them on the top of the list for next week | 21:05 |
