* TheMuso suspends today's email processing for a break...01:33
RAOFHeh.  You know what makes gnome-shell substantially less usable?  Having the mouse cursor freuqently teleport to (0,0) and activate the overlay :)02:19
TheMusoOh lovely.02:19
RAOFIt's highly likely to be related to the 1.11/1.12 frankenserver this laptop's running.  Chase needs to hunt down that bug before we migrate everything out of the PPA into Precise. :)02:21
TheMusoheh02:35
didrocksgood morning and happy new year!06:32
RAOFHey, ho, didrocks!06:33
didrockshey RAOF! How are you?06:33
RAOFPretty good.06:33
pittiGood morning07:20
pittihappy new year everyone!07:20
rickspencer3good morning pitti07:22
pittihey rickspencer3, how are you? had some nice holidays?07:22
didrocksgood morning, pitti, rickspencer3! Happy new year!07:26
pittididrocks: bonjour! ca va?07:26
didrockspitti: ça va bien :) good holidays there, and you?07:26
pittididrocks: same here, we spent all the time in Dresden and returned yesterday07:26
rickspencer3hi didrocks07:27
pittilots of time to meet friends and family, go for some hiking, etc., much easier than the rather cramped and short weekend trips07:27
rickspencer3bon fête et bon santé didrocks07:27
pittiI even brought back a cold :)07:27
rickspencer3pitti, I've had a cold for the last week as well :/07:27
didrocksbonne année à toi aussi rickspencer3 :)07:27
didrockspitti: argh, cold :/07:27
pittiyeah, half of the people we met had one, so eventually I just had to follow up :(07:28
pittibut it'll be gone by Budapest07:28
rickspencer3pitti, my thoughts exactly, I will be inoculated by Budapest next week ;)07:28
didrockslots of video games for me and catching up by years of no real video game time there :) (in addition to some time with my family), the only bad thing is that Julie didn't get any holidays07:29
pittididrocks: uh, none at all, not even for xmas?07:32
didrockspitti: no, as it was on sunday07:33
RAOFWe do that right in Australia.07:33
pittihey RAOF, happy new year!07:33
RAOFIf a public holiday falls on a weekend, we damn well take the next weekday off!07:33
didrockspitti: she just didn't work on the friday afternoon (but as her hours are counted, this is not really a gift) as there was nothing to be done07:33
RAOFNO ONE SHALL DEPRIVE US OF OUR RIGHTFUL HOLIDAYS!07:33
didrocksRAOF: heh, not in France :)07:33
didrocksso we don't have the same number of bank holidays every years :)07:34
RAOFpitti: Happy new year!07:34
pittididrocks: btw, you know that compiz-plugins-main is stuck in oneiric-proposed because of the missing precise uploads, right?07:41
pittididrocks: I guess that'll solve itself by the impending releases07:41
RAOFOh!  A shiny new unity that'll work without multitouch? :)07:42
didrockspitti: indeed, it will be in the new release. As you accepted the previous compiz/nux upload for this (as we wait tests for the incoming release first), I thought this would be on the same page07:46
tjaaltonRAOF: what where?08:01
tjaaltonoh08:01
RAOFtjaalton: :)08:04
tjaaltonyeah been using gnome-shell for the past few weeks08:04
RAOFtjaalton: Have you noticed synaptics throwing the cursor up to (0,0) with annoying frequency, or is that just my hardware?08:14
RAOFIf so: doesn't it drive you *mad*?08:14
tjaaltonRAOF: well, synaptics drives me mad, so I've disabled the hw :)08:15
tjaaltonthough I could test the behaviour..08:15
RAOFOh, yeah.  You said that before :)08:15
tjaaltonhm, how does one reboot from gnome-shell?08:17
RAOFThis laptop doesn't have a nubbin, and the *other* laptop has a bad harddrive that causes a wonderful conflux of firefox/ecryptfs/btrfs/syslog interaction.08:17
RAOFtjaalton: I *think* you need to hold down alt?08:17
RAOFWhile opening up the menu?08:17
tjaaltonha, yeah that did it08:18
BigWhaleGood morning everyone.08:18
tjaaltonhow discoverable..08:18
RAOFDiscoverability™08:18
RAOFNo one ever needs to do something so *crass* as to reboot their system.08:18
BigWhaleRAOF, I agree! It just messes up with your uptime records! :>08:18
tjaaltonRAOF: confirmed :)08:25
RAOFtjaalton: Pretty fun, isn't it? :)08:27
tjaaltonhilarious08:27
RAOFIt interacts particularly well with (0,0) being the Activities hot corner!08:28
tjaaltonheh, yeah08:30
tjaaltonoh well, purged the driver for now08:30

chrisccoulsonand it shows! i've got all of this to fix today https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/FirefoxUpgradeChecklist/10.0 ;)09:07
pittichrisccoulson: heh, I feel the same; lots of mail/bug/etc. backlog :(09:08
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, the mail backlog is the worst part ;)09:14

didrocksbonne année seb128 :)09:18
seb128oh a didrocks09:18
seb128didrocks, bonne année !09:18
seb128didrocks, I was a bit concerned about you being not there yesterday, I'm glad you are back ;-)09:19
pittibonjour seb128, happy new year! *hug*09:19
seb128didrocks, I was wondering if you decided holidays were too nice and that you wouldn't go back to work :p09:19
brycehpitti, yeah I force myself to bring it to zero at least once a week, even if that means moving some ongoing items into the todo list09:19
didrocksseb128: no, I  had a 16 days of holidays reminaining, hence the swap between friday 9th december to yesterday09:19
seb128pitti, happy new year to you as well! *hug*09:19
pittibryceh: right, maintaining a proper TODO list is a nice solution for this09:19
seb128didrocks, oh ok, I was not sure if you said you put all your days before the holidays and you were not marked on holidays or swap in canonicaladmin09:20
didrocksseb128: yeah, I just talk to jason about swapping friday and yesterday as it was not realistic that I can go on holidays the 9th december with all the remaining tasks I had before holidays09:20
didrocksbut I managed them and finished on friday at 5:30pm despite a lot of surprises on that day :p09:21
rickspencer3pitti, deactivating me from the canonical-desktop team won't stop me from assigning bugs ;)09:22

rickspencer3good evening?09:26
rickspencer3bryceh, is it not 1:36am for you?09:26
brycehrickspencer3, yep09:26
rickspencer3night owl09:26
brycehindeed; but helps when its time for the 2am feedings, and consoling sick kids09:27
lifelessbryceh: young baby?09:28
baptistemmcongrats chrisccoulson for the new baby coming09:28
brycehlifeless, 4mo09:28
lifelessbryceh: ~same as cynthia; I'm told it gets better ;)09:29
brycehah wait, 5 months09:29
brycehlifeless, yep, she's our second so we've been through it all09:29
pittiseb128: btw, I created bug 911125 from doko's recent main rebuild test09:30
ubot2`Launchpad bug 911125 in yelp "FTBFS due to removed g_thread_init" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/91112509:30
chrisccoulsonbaptistemm, thanks :)09:31
pittiseb128: some fallout from gnome 3.2 vs. new glib (but should be easy to fix)09:31
seb128pitti, right, the easy way is to no set G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED09:32
brycehlifeless, hope you had some fun times over the holiday with your new daughter? she starting to become interactive?09:32
pittiseb128: but g_thread_init() disappeared entirely09:32
seb128pitti, no it didn't09:32
pittiseb128: it's been deprecated since 2.2409:32
pittiuh?09:32
seb128it would be an abi break09:32
pittiah, ok09:32
lifelessbryceh: beginning yes; she burbles a lot, tracks us very very well, rolls from front to back in a millisecond09:33
seb128pitti, see /usr/include/glib-2.0/glib/deprecated/gthread.h09:33
seb128pitti, they just moved it in the deprecated dir09:34
pittiseb128: ok, thanks; I updated the description accordingly09:34
seb128pitti, which is only included when you don't turn deprecate off09:34
seb128pitti, thanks09:34
brycehlifeless, nice, my daughter Zoë has just started rolling over this past week (mostly back to front), but she can scoot herself across the room on her back no prob09:55
lifelessbryceh: heh, cynthia hasn't worked out scooting along yet ;)09:55
lifelessbryceh: she just looks around pitifully and bawls :(09:56
lifelessbryceh: gnight09:56
brycehlifeless, nite09:57
seb128re10:22
seb128pitti, urg, I really dislike the one bug to track all the ftbfs issues style, can't we open different bugs and tag them or give a list to the team next time?10:23
pittiseb128: ok, will do next time; doko asked for tracking this, and as it's the same problem in multiple packages tasks seemed appropriate10:24
seb128pitti, the way you did it means that people subscribed to any of the listed component will get emails for every change to any of components10:24
seb128like if I care about dbus I will get 250 spams for things I don't care about10:24
seb128pitti, yeah, the feature makes sense until you get spammed for 2 months on a bug where you fixed your part and get emails from discussions still going for universe stuff ;-)10:25
seb128(been there before)10:25
pittiok, noted10:25
seb128thanks10:25
sorenseb128: You know you can mute bug mail from a single bug, right?10:26
pittiFTR, /me merges gnome-keyring and fixes FTBFS along10:26
seb128soren, right, but I can't mute comments that don't concern the components I care about10:26
sorenseb128: Right, no, but once you've fixed you part, you can just mute the bug.10:26
seb128soren, because comments are not targetted to a particular of the 15 listed components10:26
seb128soren, well I would like to know if there is an issue with my fix :p10:26
sorenseb128: Ah, good point.10:27
seb128that launchpad feature is really to track one bug that need change on different sources10:27
seb128not to track similar bugs across the archive ;-)10:27
seb128we have tags for that10:27
seb128or we would open a "ftbfs in precise" bug and liste 500 sources in there ;-)10:28
* didrocks opens10:28
didrocks:-)10:28
pitti(not the same root cause, though)10:28
pittibut yes, I see what you mean10:29
pittiso, tags in the future10:29
seb128pitti, thanks, sorry for being picky but I got bitten by such bugs in the past ;-) (at a time where launchpad didn't have bug muting though, I will just use that for this one)10:31
seb128pitti, btw you can update yelp to 3.3 if you want10:32
seb128it's on the list of standalone applications that we said we would update to 3.410:32
seb128that should fix the ftbfs as well I guess10:32
pittiah, sounds good10:32
pittiyes, for the gnome stuff I figure all of the fixes are already in upstream git10:32
seb128mostly yes10:33
seb128I was pondering dropping part of gnome-utils and doing updates as well10:33
seb128they made standalone vcs and tarballs for each components in the new cycle10:33
pittiI followed that discussion on desktop-devel, indeed10:33
pittiit seems relatively harmless10:33
pitti(either way)10:34
seb128we can package things we care about10:34
seb128I started on gnome-screenshot before the holidays10:34
pittibut I thought we should do it in Debian and sync, instead of doing the work twice and then have to merge10:34
seb128yeah10:35
seb128I should commit my work to the pkg-gnome svn10:35
seb128but I'm not sure if Debian will get 3.4 for wheezy10:35
pittishould be fine in experimental?10:35
seb128I guess so10:36
seb128pitti, do you have any clue about the amd64 retracer issues? it was down during the holidays, I untag the bug it was having issue with yesterday but it has been hitting a similar one again10:44
seb128  File "apport/bin/crash-digger", line 100, in retrace_next10:44
seb128    raise SystemError('retracing #%i failed' % id)10:44
seb128SystemError: retracing #909509 failed10:44
pittiseb128: dup db confusion again; it's high on my list10:44
seb128"but database already has that signature for ID 90510510:44
seb128"10:44
pittiI'll fix/workaround it today10:44
seb128pitti, thanks10:44
seb128should I untag that bug and remove the lock meanwhile?10:45
seb128hum in fact no hurry, ignore that10:45
pittiif you remember to re-tag it, sure10:45
seb128we can wait for you to look at it10:45
seb128ok, similar to yesterday, both evince bugs10:46
seb128I untag and delete the lock, will retag those 2 later10:46
pittiI bet it's again due to some internal __strlen_sse_whatever stuff10:46
pittiI need to unwind those10:46
seb128yeah, the one I untag yesterday had that10:47
pittithey are useless and skew duplication detection10:47
pittiseb128: or just mark them as dupes10:47
pittithat'll help, too10:47
seb128"SIGSEGV in __strchr_sse2()"10:47
seb128pitti, so I clean them by hand?10:47
pittiright, it should use the "real" function for this, not the internal one10:47
pittiseb128: I'd find the existing master bug (the one in the exception message, bug 905105) and dupe10:48
seb128pitti, ok thanks10:48
pittibut the logic needs to be fixed as well, of course, I can do that10:48
pittiI added that assertion to ensure that we don't screw up the dup db10:49
pittiseb128: hm, g_module_* stuff isn't deprecated, is it?10:53
pittiseb128: gnome-keyring fails to build due to undefined reference to `g_module_open' and others10:53
pittiit does link to -lglib-2.0, and I added #include <gmodule.h>10:53
pittidoes that ring a bell?10:53
seb128pitti, http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-keyring/commit/?id=30915a6fc4b95bbe6a5da224f731480e78bbaf8310:54

didrocksnessita: yes, the option not working, right?12:03
nessitadidrocks: right, every time I press F10 the menu of the window will open instead of forward the event to the program running in the terminal12:03
didrocksnessita: you unchecked the "activate shortcuts to access the menu", isn't it?12:04
didrocksin file -> shortcuts12:04
pittinessita: happy new year!12:04

tjaaltonis there a way to hibernate from the precise unity gui?12:38
seb128tjaalton, same as always, open the session indicator in the top right and pick hibernate?12:39
tjaaltonseb128: don't have that option, only suspend and shutdown12:40
tjaaltonfresh install12:40
tjaaltonhmm12:40
seb128oh, I think hibernate is off by default12:40
tjaaltonyeah there's enough swap12:40
seb128it's a question for pitti when he's back12:41
seb128he turned it off somewhere by default12:41
tjaaltonok so it's possibly editable from dconf-editor12:41
seb128I don't think it's in gsettings, it's rather an etc file I think12:42
tjaaltonah, ok12:42
seb128like a polkit or upower setting12:42
tjaaltonyeah not seeing it12:42

seb128chrisccoulson, oh and I had dinner with my friend who has the tb pop indicator issues during the holidays and he nagged me about it again, I said I would use direct poking until it gets fixed if needed ;-)13:19
seb128tb, pop, spam filtering, count issue ... dunno how you call it ;-) my friend seems to think it's not specific to pop though, just that tb doesn't refresh its count after dealing with spams locally13:20

didrocksnessita: no, you shouldn't need to. I will have a try later on my machine to confirm (need to finish something before rebooting unity). If it still fails, it's maybe because the indicator is simply broken14:29

chrisccoulson(based on the fact that most extensions don't need any code changes to work with newer versions)14:42

seb128different cpu, io level will show different issues16:38
seb128we also need to review the GNOME3, gnome-control-center scheduled changes16:38
cyphermoxah, my laptop boots *real* quick so far16:38
seb128that was sort of relying on rodrigo to get done so we will need to see what we can keep and dispatch those16:38

pittitjaalton: do you want to discuss anything about the 1.11 PPA? (it was on the agenda section, but presumably unintended)16:43
tjaaltonpitti: well, no news from my part, unity is still broken16:43
pittitjaalton: ok, thanks16:44

cyphermoxah just one small thing16:46

tjaaltonpitti: nope16:47
seb128cyphermox, try updating to the new upstream version in case it fixes it?16:47
pitticyphermox: on some arches, or on all?16:48
cyphermoxah, right, there's the new version now16:48
cyphermoxpitti: as it's an issue in sbc_primitives_mmx I'd say just i386 and amd6416:48

dobeyis jasoncwarner_ back from holidays already?17:59
dobeymterry: around?18:00
mterrydobey, yeah18:00
dobeymterry: have you heard anything about the ProjectTracking thing wrt u1?18:01
mterrydobey, no18:02
dobey:-/18:02
dobeyskaet: ping. are you around?18:08
skaetdobey, yup18:08
* skaet looks at backsrcoll...18:09
dobeyskaet: there is some lack of understanding about how ubuntuone is supposed to integrate with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuEngineering/12.04/UpstreamDevelopment/ProjectTracking18:09
dobeyskaet: in particularly i am not sure what some of those columns mean exactly, and how we can integrate with this platform requirement, without causing our own releases to get blocked trying to get uploaded into precise18:12
kenvandinedobey, that is kind of the point... someone from platform needs to be responsible for what lands in precise18:12
kenvandinethat someone probably being me18:13
* skaet defers to kenvandine ;)18:13
kenvandinedobey, i guess i should have made sure you made it to those sessions at UDS :)18:13
dobeyand it sucks for us18:13
dobeyyeah, perhaps :)18:13
kenvandineit slows things down, yes18:14
kenvandinebut the goal is quality, and not keeping precise usable everyday18:14
kenvandinewhich helps make it easier for people to switch to it earlier for development18:14
dobeyyes, i understand the goal18:15
dobeythe goal isn't the problem :)18:15
kenvandines/not //18:15
skaetkenvandine s/not keeping/keeping/18:15
skaet:)18:15
kenvandineindeed :)18:15
kenvandinei haven't heard anything about handling people with per-package upload rights... but I guess I would review it and let you upload18:16
kenvandinei assume18:16
skaetkenvandine, ralsina is listed as the signoff - are you the backup?  or anyone else on the desktop team?18:16
dobeyand also, that18:16
dobeyskaet: ralsina doesn't even have any upload privs to ubuntu afaik18:16
dobeykenvandine: and given what i was hoping to do for the u1 packages, this becomes an even bigger pain for us18:17
dobeykenvandine: which is, to have a packageset that we can upload to without having to chase people down18:18
kenvandinedobey, yeah, i understand the pain point for you guys18:18
kenvandinebut this is the process18:18
dobeykenvandine: and i don't understand how it's ok for some projects to have the same trunk owner/feature owner/distro owner; and yet some must be forced to depend on others18:19
kenvandinemost of them depend on others18:20
kenvandinelook at DX18:20
dobeyyes, but there are exceptions18:21
dobeywhy are the exceptions special?18:21
kenvandinewhich exceptions?18:22
kenvandinedobey, although the goal isn't to have a different person from distro looking at it18:23
seb128exceptions are mostly project which have 1 hacker and nobody to do reviews18:23
kenvandinethe goal is to have someone from distro responsible18:23
kenvandineright, like gwibber, deja dup18:23
kenvandineetc18:23
kenvandinethose we are upstream for and less official18:23
dobeylightdm, upstart, gwibber, jockey, apport, ecryptfs, ufw, apparmor, postgresql-common, dejadup…18:24
seb128you can add "and the maintainer has been doing an correct job at writing testcases for its software and not rolling broken versions"18:24
seb128they are mostly small one person projects without a record of issues18:24
seb128it doesn't mean it wouldn't be better if they had a second hacker and reviews18:25
seb128but we didn't block on that18:25
dobeyeep, come back ken!18:30
nessitaanyone knows where lp-project-upload went on precise?18:32
nessitaI have ubuntu-dev-tools installed, but the script is gone afais18:32
Laneyi think it's in lptools now18:33
dobeylptools18:33
nessitaLaney, dobey: thanks!18:33
dobeykenvandine: so i do feel that some of the u1 projects are very similar to those exceptions, in that way. but we need a solution for this, because it doesn't seem right.18:38
kenvandineit's no different than the DX packages18:39
kenvandineif you have some that you don't think should be on the list18:39
kenvandinelet me know18:39
dobeyi think having a packageset or per-package-upload privs, shouldn't be made meaningless by the process; and that seems to be what the process does :(18:40
kenvandineskaet, do you know if anyone has raised that concern?18:41
kenvandinedobey, the definition was set as a distro team member18:41
kenvandinebut perhaps someone that has been granted upload rights should fit that description18:41
dobeykenvandine: right; and having per-package-upload (and wanting to propose a packageset for u1), and not being on the distro team, is annoying there18:42
skaetkenvandine, I've not heard that concern raised, but am wondering if distro readiness owner should have them as a condition, before having ehir name in that column. ?18:47
kenvandineskaet, yeah, i would imagine that is expected18:48
kenvandinebut what about non-distro team members with upload rights?  Perhaps they should be able to own distro readiness, as long as they understand the requirements18:49
skaetkenvandine,  yeah, it probably needs a good discussion with jasoncwarner_ and then some cleanup of the page18:51

kenvandinehaha20:02

BigWhaleyeah20:04
BigWhalenot a big deal if you know where to look! ;)20:04
* kenvandine doesn't really remember the deal with that... but it was painful to find20:05
dobeyis it an interface rather than an object?20:05
kenvandinethat might be it20:05
kenvandineso you can't subclass it20:06
dobeyyou can subclass it as a new interface, but you can't turn it into a gobject20:06
BigWhaleit's the foo = AppIndicatior3.Indicator() vs. bar = AppIndicator3.Indicator.new()20:07
dobeyoh20:07
BigWhalefirst one will segfault python20:07
kenvandineoh20:07
kenvandinedifferent issue20:07
dobeyso the introspection is just wrong20:07
kenvandineno default constructor20:07
kenvandineor so it thinks20:07
dobeyyeah, the metadata is missing in the .gir20:07
kenvandineand i think that is caused by namespace clash in C20:08
BigWhalewell the bug is about subclassing, but people then talk about constructor too20:08
kenvandineyou can't subclass it because of the constructor20:08
dobeywell subclassing in python without a default constructor, will break20:09
