broderis gnome-open formally deprecated at this point in favor of xdg-open or something like that?05:33
broderah, looks like gvfs-open is the way and the light this week05:35
micahgyep, looks like we should revert anything that was uploaded to use libgnome-206:01
micahgoops, maybe not, depends on what the patch was :)06:01

pittiyay, I'm not the first one for a change06:39
pittididrocks: eek, up at 5:10?06:39
pittibroder: yes06:39

pittibonjour seb12809:39
chrisccoulsonhmmmm, i wish i could build-depend on packages from ddebs.ubuntu.com :)09:41
pittichrisccoulson: OOI, what for?09:42
chrisccoulsonpitti - so i could generate breakpad symbols for system libraries as part of the firefox build09:43
seb128hey chrisccoulson, pitti, how are you?09:43
pittiI'm fine09:43
chrisccoulsonat the moment, i'll probably be running a job on chinstrap to generate them and submit them to mozilla separately09:43
chrisccoulsonwhich is a bit of a pain :)09:44
seb128pitti, I guess a poppler soname change would be better after a1 rather than before?09:44
seb128bah, getting armhf build failure emails now09:45
seb128it's quite polluting versions as well09:45
seb128pitti, it's meeting reminder day09:46
seb128;-)09:46
pittioh, right09:46
pittiseb128: thanks09:46
seb128yw!09:46
seb128pitti, btw did you see the poppler question?09:46
pittiseb128: no, I didn't09:46
seb128pitti, 3 lines before the meeting reminder reminder09:46
pittiseb128: ah, there; yes please09:47
pittiseb128: you can upload the new poppler, it'll just go into binNEW09:48
pittibut let's do the transition afterwards09:48
seb128right, that's what I was thinking09:48
seb128ok, will do that, I might also start on the new glib in the vcs but that one will be kept for after a109:48
seb128pitti, btw if you ever get bored and what to do some updates in debian: libcroco libdmapsharing intltool would be nice to update there so we stay in sync09:49
seb128the new intltool adds support for gsettings schemas09:49
seb128so it's possible to translate them properly including default values09:49
pittinice09:49
seb128chrisccoulson, btw I was looking at ubuntu forums a bit on my friday off work, several people are having the tb,pop,spam issues my friend emailed you about before oneiric, did that just got dropped on the floor on the way? or is the issue (or pop users) just don't ranked high enough to reach the part of your todolist you are working on?10:02
seb128chrisccoulson, said differently, should I nag you about it this cycle or do you think it's too low priority and will not get to it?10:03
chrisccoulsonseb128, i just haven't had time to look at it :)10:03
chrisccoulsonseb128, you read forums?10:03
chrisccoulsonand you don't want to kill yourself afterwards?10:03
seb128chrisccoulson, not usually, I'm just doing a sociologist studies of ubuntu users and trying to figure what's causing the hype for mint and there is something we could do better ;-)10:04
chrisccoulsonheh :)10:04
seb128chrisccoulson, seems like it's all your fault with that tb,spam issue, people get their indicator blue when it shouldn't be!10:05
seb128;-)10:05
chrisccoulsonperhaps if we change our theme to green and not show kernel security upgrades by default, then people will love us :)10:05
seb128chrisccoulson, not to mention that my indicator still has the issue I showed you at UDS, that's on imap though10:05
seb128lol10:05
chrisccoulsonseb128, yeah, i will fix that one soon, once i've done with this breakpad / system libraries stuff :)10:06

seb128do people care about powerpc or armhf build issues to be raised on versions?12:38
seb128or said different: I'm about to make version ignore those, if you disagree now is the moment to speak ;-)12:38
pittiseb128: I'd keep armel12:39
pittiand at some point we should add armhf, but not now12:39
seb128pitti, yeah, I'm just speaking about powerpc and armhf12:39
seb128i.e I would keep i386 amd64 armel12:39
pittiis powerpc so bad right now?12:39
seb128no, there is just firefox and thunderbird sitting on top of version due to it ;-)12:39
pittithere's just two, and both are chrisccoulson's bugs12:40
seb128yeah, it got better recently, there were like 5-6 until recently12:40
chrisccoulsonwhy is firefox on versions?12:40
pittiit's a desktopy package12:41
seb128chrisccoulson, because version lists everything desktopish12:41
chrisccoulsonah, i was just wondering if there's a need to have it on there12:41
seb128chrisccoulson, just making sure that you don't start slacking ;-)12:41
chrisccoulsonbut regarding the powerpc issue - i don't really care about powerpc ;)12:41
chrisccoulsoni'll find the upstream patch which fixes it if i get time, but it's fairly low priority for me12:42
seb128yeah, I think I will keep the build issue emblems but not raise the powerpc specific issues to be first on the page so we know about them without having them being too noisy12:43
chrisccoulsonyeah, makes sense12:44
pittiseb128: btw, I'll go to the stable+1 team in December12:59

jibeldbus timeout on oem-config-remove14:29
pittijibel: ok, OEM is probably uninteresting for alpha-1, I think we can live with documenting this14:29

jibelpitti, agree, there is a timeout but then the session starts as expected.14:30

seb128ricotz, we can probably update cogl and clutter to the new serie if somebody want to do it14:40
ricotzseb128, i guess if i have upload rights ;)14:40
ricotzseb128, updating cogl and clutter to 1.9.2 isnt a good idea yet14:41

ricotzWARNING: icon cache generation failed for /usr/share/icons/LowContrast16:45
pittiseb128: it's in bzr, but it doesn't seem urgent enough for A1 to me -- it doesn't break a lot apparently?16:47
seb128pitti, well it breaks the icon cache updates, which basically means any new icon installed will in practice be hidden by the outdated cache16:48
seb128that can lead to segfault and other issues for softwares who don't handle broken installation (i.e to not have the icon they install not available)16:48
seb128but in practice for the CD itself it's probably not much of an issue16:48
pittiseb128: right, but with all these strict dependencies on -common, uploading a new version is prone to arch desync and uninstallability16:49
pittiah, amd64 has caught up16:49
pittiso it  would actually have a chance of building now (it was locked in some gcc/kernel/etc. builds a few hours ago)16:50
seb128pitti, ok fair enough, I've no strong opinion as long as the pro and con are understood ;-)16:50
seb128it will probably lead to a few weird runtime issues for some users, especially those upgrading, but that's not the end of the world16:51

pittiand a respin is just running16:52
pittiseb128: so, if you think it's important, please upload and I can set aside an armel build for it16:52

seb128that's the first time it happens since I use tb I think!17:27
kenvandinewow...17:27
seb128the "submitting your report" line starts with a broken icon...17:28
seb128it doesn't tell me how much it submits and how it's progressing nor has an icon for the dialog (i.e get a "?" in the unity launcher)17:28
seb128I want apport back :p17:28
* rodrigo_ out for a bit, bbl17:31
seb128chrisccoulson, hey17:31
seb128chrisccoulson, is there any way I can know what tb send to mozilla about my issue? it didn't me any url, bug number or anything17:32
chrisccoulsonhi seb12817:32
seb128send -> sent17:32
chrisccoulsonseb128, you submitted a crash report?17:32
seb128he finished, closed the dialog and that's it17:32
seb128chrisccoulson, yeah, read the backlog there ;-)17:32
chrisccoulsonseb128, Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Crash Reports17:33
chrisccoulsonoh, i think there might be an issue with retrieving reports from crash-stats atm17:34
seb128chrisccoulson, no such section or mention on this page17:34
chrisccoulsonseb128, oh? what version of thunderbird are you using?17:35
seb128chrisccoulson, 7.0.117:35
chrisccoulsonah, you're out of date :)17:35
chrisccoulsoni'm on 9.0b217:35
seb128yeah, seems like 8.0 landed in oneiric-security yesterday17:36
seb128ok, I will update17:36
chrisccoulsonseb128, in that case, you can get crash ID's from ~/.thunderbird/Crash\ Reports/submitted17:36
seb128so it means it just -> /dev/null my bug report?17:36
chrisccoulsonand then just add the ID to the end of http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/17:37
seb128there is no "submitted", only a "pending"17:37
seb128it maybe failed to send it?17:37
chrisccoulsonoh, perhaps17:37
chrisccoulsonthat's a pain :(17:37

pittihello tkamppeter, how are you?18:08
tkamppeterpitti, fine.18:09
tkamppeterpitti, I wanted to commit the fix for bug 897723, but BZR (or the Debian repo has encoding problems). See the mail with the debdiff and the error message.18:09
ubot2Launchpad bug 897723 in cups "Setting duplex in the print dialog has no effect for some print drivers" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/89772318:09
tkamppeterProblem is probably that the OLD version of cpdftocps has non-ASCII characters in comments and due to this the debdiff has them, too, and a recent change seems to have removed UTF-8 support from BZR, blocking commit access to that file.18:11
tkamppeterpitti, ^^18:11
pittitkamppeter: I'll have a look tomorrow, I'm about to run out18:11
pittibut asking in #bzr can probably not hurt18:11

GunnarHjseb128: I see two reasons that speaks for handling language and region using the same tool:19:56

GunnarHj2) We have a migration from ~/.profile to deal with.19:57
