mvoslangasek: fwiw, I proposed removing debian/ from trunk for command-not-found and have it only in a packaging branch to avoid confusion again (confusion caused by absent minded people like me)09:42
pitticjwatson: I think we should remove the current libo 3.5 binaries to make upgrades a little less broken; does that sound ok to you09:43
pitti?09:43
cjwatsonpitti: The NBS ones?09:44
pitticjwatson: no, all binaries09:44
pittibdmurray says the upgrade bug alrady has 130-something dupes09:44
pitticjwatson: but building the fix will take at least 10 hours on the buildds09:44
cjwatsonSo effectively no LibO in precise for a while?09:44
cjwatsonThat will break image builds09:45
infinityThis sounds like a good long-term solution.09:45
cjwatsoninfinity: :-P09:45
pitticjwatson: they are already broken09:45
pittiit doesn't make it any less urgent to unbreak LibO09:45
cjwatsonWell, if I can blame the desktop team for it :-P09:45
pittibut it might ease upgrades a little bit09:45

cjwatsonIf we remove it, people who upgrade to precise in the relevant interval will be prompted by update-manager to remove LibO, I think09:46
cjwatsonMaybe we can tolerate that but I thought it should be mentioned09:47
pittiah, so it's not -l10n, but due to the broken postinst09:47
cjwatsonpitti: Well, I'm a bit nervous of the removal, but if you think it's a good idea, I can't actually think of solid arguments against09:48
pittiit's only a recommends of u-desktop, so if u-m removes it, nothing would pull it back in09:49
pitticjwatson: bdmurray, Sweetshark and I are currently discussing reuploading 1:3.5.0~beta2+really3.4.4-0ubuntu109:49
cjwatsonThat sounds intrusive09:49
pittiit "only" takes ~ 2.5 hours to build instead of 1009:49

pittiwe still have the corresponding -l10n source in the archive09:51

=== masACC is now known as maswan
pitticjwatson: beta3 is already released, so we wouldn't have to carry the +really version number for long09:52
pittiso it seems both binary removal and the status quo breaks upgrades quite badly09:53
pitticjwatson: OOI, why do you think a reversion is worse?09:55
pittihm, it'd need a libo-l10n upload as well, as libreoffice-l10n-XX Depends: libreoffice-common (<< 1:3.5~)09:56
geserwhat about fixing the broken preinst?09:58
pittithat needs to happen, of course; currently discussing with Bjoern09:59
pittiif it's faster to fix 3. with -l10n (that already is confirmed to work) and the human theme (that still causes problems), or revert to 3.410:00
pitti"fix 3.5"10:00
slangasekcjwatson: per bdmurray's suggestion, I'm going to mark ubuntu-foundations-team as restricted rather than moderated so I don't have to tell people "no" anymore... we'll just have to invite people instead when we want them in :)10:02
cjwatsonslangasek: good idea!10:04
cjwatsonpitti: I guess it's not so terrible if there's no risk of us releasing with it; LibO is sufficiently high-profile that I do think people might actually vaguely care about the version number10:04
pittiin the worst case we'll release alpha-2 with it, but this should land next week10:05
pittibut at this point it gets dangerously close to the weekend for my taste10:05
cjwatsonI agree we need to fix this before the weekend ...10:06

andrejzok, thanks pitti16:34
cr3andrejz: hi there, what's up?16:37
andrejzhello, i have some concern about the string to be translated. they require substantially more translator work then they could. I briefly explained it here - https://bugs.launchpad.net/checkbox/+bug/91609616:38
ubottuUbuntu bug 916096 in checkbox "Checkbox requires a lot of translator work" [Undecided,New]16:38
andrejzdo you think something can be done about it?16:38
cr3andrejz: I'm not sure, those strings are taken from the equivalent to rfc822 deb files16:40
cr3andrejz: however, you raise an extra good point that "PURPOSE" should not be translated but that's our fault, it's really not clear :(16:40
cr3andrejz: I'm really not happy with the pseudo-markup format which PURPOSE/STEPS/VERIFICATION are intended to be16:41
andrejzit's kind of annoying i need to translate some strings over and over again (PURPOSE, STEPS and VERIFICATION are most prominent, but there are others too)16:42
cr3andrejz: I'll raise this with the rest of the team for sure but I can't make any promises for Precise since we're approaching FF quickly. however, there are talks for a major refactoring in P+116:43
andrejzok, thanks16:43
cr3andrejz: there will be a blueprint for the refactoring listing some of the problems with the current implementation, so I'll make sure to raise your concern16:43
andrejzcool, i hope something nice comes out of it :)16:44
cr3andrejz: me too, I can appreciate the annoyance you have to deal with. thanks for taking the time to get in touch with me though, very nice!16:45
pitticjwatson: (CC: RAOF) oneiric unapproved has some syncs, presumably from (failed?) experiments from you?16:46
andrejzwell at first i started translating but then i got increasingly annoyed and then realised i am surely not the only one with this issue and decided to report it :)16:46
pitticjwatson: we can't do anything but reject them, but not sure what the intent was?16:46
