didrocksgood morning BigWhale, RAOF!06:47
pittibonjour didrocks06:54
pittidesrt: just sent my GNOME membership application :)06:55
didrocksguten morgen pitti, how are you?06:55
pittihey RAOF, how are you?06:55
RAOFpitti: Pretty good.  Yourself?06:55
pittididrocks: quite fine, thanks!06:55

RAOFTo the cinema!07:03
* didrocks goes from FTBFS to FTBFS with new compiz since yesterday :/07:05
pittiRAOF: what will you see?07:09
pittivuntz: bonjour!07:14
pittivuntz: for gnome bug 642692, I wondered how "committed" you are to the wnck_shutdown() API name07:14
ubot2`Gnome bug 642692 in general "Provide wnck_shutdown() (?)" [Normal,New] http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64269207:14
pittivuntz: if the name is fixed, and we just need to discuss the implementation, I would apply that patch to our packages already for broader testing and usage in notify-osd07:15
pittivuntz: but I wouldn't like to vendor-patch an API change without your consent07:15
pittididrocks: I think I already asked, but I forgot, sorry: What is "Provide some user journey in manual test case form" all about? (johnlea's WI on desktop-p-unity-quality)07:17
didrockspitti: John as a lot of "user journey" about "how to start an application", "how to reveal the launcher", and such. He was supposed to turn them into test cases07:18
didrockspitti: but I covered them in my test cases at the end07:18
pittididrocks: right, was just going to ask -- sounds a lot like the manual test cases you have already?07:19
pittididrocks: so I guess we can drop this one?07:19
didrockspitti: yeah, I think we can safely drop it07:19
pittidone, thanks07:20
didrockspitti: the test cases that are not covered are the multimonitor and multitouch ones07:20
didrocksmultimonitor -> I'm waiting on the new work done upstream07:20
didrocksmultitouch -> I need time… :/07:20
vuntzpitti: name is going to stay, feel free to push it07:23
vuntzpitti: I'll try to make time to look at it today/tomorrow07:24

pittididrocks: I recently noticed that the launcher doesn't appear if there is a window underneath it; I just confirmed in a guest session08:53
pittididrocks: do you mind a quick try on your machine, to ensure it's not something I picked up from a PPA?08:53
pittigo to an empty desktop08:53

pittididrocks: ok, thanks for trying08:55
* pitti downloads today's desktop CD and tries there08:55
didrockspitti: but your issue remember of one I had at some point08:56

mvoseb128: remember that we talked about the segfault in gtk image with the new iconhelper stuff? I have a tiny testcase now http://paste.ubuntu.com/815206/ - obviously what the testcase is doing is not correct and yet it would be nice if gtk would not segfault here, especially not when using gtk :/ - essentially the problem is that icon_helper is NULL on destory and that causes the segv10:03
mvoseb128: fwiw, oneiric did not segv in the testcase10:03
seb128mvo, hey, right the old code was doing less in destroy10:04
seb128mvo, can you open a bug with the testcase?10:20
seb128mvo, btw is there any chance you look at s-c with the new webkit?10:20
seb128mvo, nothing else is having an issue, I wonder if that's a s-c bug or if you could come with a small testcase10:20
mvoseb128: where can I download it? desktop ppa?10:20
seb128mvo, yes10:20
seb128mvo, ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa10:21
mvoseb128: sure I can file a bug, I don't have much hopes other than "WONTFIX" though, this is why I did not do it already10:21
seb128mvo, well you seem to care enough to write a testcase, so we can as well have the bug for the record10:21
seb128even if it's wontfix it still show a problem we might hit again10:21
* mvo nods10:22

BigWhaleA question... Silly but important one! Is ~/Documents in Slovenia (or Germany or whatever) also ~/Documents or it gets translated?12:30
pittiBigWhale: it does get translated, but not quite at runtime12:32
pittiBigWhale: see ~/.config/user-dirs.{dirs,locale}12:32
pittiBigWhale: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60xdg-user-dirs-update checks for locale changes, or "first login" creation of those12:33
BigWhalepitti, ah, thanks!12:34
pittididrocks: would it be okay for me to upload an unity-2d to drop the invalid "use-strut" from /usr/share/GConf/gsettings/unity-2d.convert ?12:41
didrockspitti: sure, you need to push the same change back to lp:unity-2d as well though12:42
pittididrocks: hm, can't push to the branches12:42
pittiVcs-Bzr: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-2d-team/unity-2d/oneiric12:42
didrockspitti: is it invalid? I didn't follow the story12:42
pittithat seems out of date, and a /precise doesn't exist12:42
didrockspitti: yeah, it's just lp:unity-2d12:42
pittididrocks: yes, it makes gsettings-data-convert crash and thus breaks the settings migrations for every upgrader12:43
pittididrocks: ah, no separate upstream/packaging branches?12:43
didrockspitti: upstream really wanted the packaging to be in upstream trunk12:43
pittididrocks: normal MP, or what is the procedure these days?12:43
didrocksand that was on the armel time (when the armel team maintained it)12:43
didrockspitti: yeah, normal MP12:43
pittiwill also fix Vcs-Bzr: while I'm at it12:44
didrockspitti: thanks :)12:44
didrocksIIRC, use-strut was for the autohide mode12:44
* didrocks checks the schema12:44
didrockshum, that's weird12:46
didrockspitti: wait, pinging greyback12:46
didrocksah, not online right now :/12:46
pittiah, ok; committed locally for now12:46
didrocksthose keys should still be there, hence my surprise12:47
pittigrepping for "strut" there is not much12:47
didrocksyeah12:47
pittino querying from gsettings, anyway, so it doesn't look like an omission in the schema12:47
didrockspitti: it's not, ther is stil super-key-enable12:47
pittididrocks: r80412:47
didrockspitti: but hide-mode is not available as well12:47
pittiThis branch removes the use-struts dconf option and enables struts automatically when the user selects hide-mode 0 (never hide).12:48
didrockspitti: do you have "hide-mode" in the schema?12:48
pittiyes12:48
didrocksurgh, dconf-editor doesn't show it here12:48
* didrocks pokes gsettings directly12:48
didrockspitti: ok, got it there :)12:49
pittir804 doesn't look like an accident, anyway12:49
didrocksyeah, makes sense, I was afraid about not seeing "hide-mode" anymore as well12:49
didrocksbut seems a dconf-editor issue12:49
didrocksso yeah, just MP please :)12:50

pittithat's still quite some time12:57
pittiit's also the day of soft-freeze for alpha-212:57
pittiwell, /me bows to the gods of workflows :)12:58
didrockspitti: yeah, post alpha212:59
pittididrocks: can we at least get this into alpha-2?12:59
pittito avoid breaking the migration for every upgrader?12:59
didrockspitti: the 2 february is the alpha2, isn't it?12:59
didrockspitti: so please go ahead and upload12:59
didrockspitti: next release will only be post alpha2 (freeze on monday)13:00
pittiok, doing that then; I don't care much about preserving the changelog13:00
pittididrocks: will that cause you lots of trouble?13:00
* pitti is torn back and forth between pissing off you or upgraders13:00
didrockspitti: no no, don't worry, maybe I won't have the changelog in the next upload but that's it :)13:01
pittiyeah, I don't care much13:02

didrockspitti: with source 3 arguing at you for having distro-patch, right?13:09
seb128pitti, not sure I understand the shotwell issue, the key they list in the .convert is in one of the .schemas, that case might be fixed by the gconf commit I showed earlier13:09
pittididrocks: yes13:09
pittiseb128: oh, is that already 8in?13:09
didrockspitti: remove source 3, I didn't for unity-2d yet but as it doesn't play well with merge-upstream…13:09
seb128pitti, no, still on my list for today13:09
didrockspitti: I did for others, especially thinking about you with SRU :)13:09
pittiseb128: so it's not that13:09
pittididrocks: ok, will do that13:09
seb128pitti, well, it doesn't happen every time for sure, I don't know what conditions trigger it, it's not as obvious as the unity-2d case where an invalid key was listed13:10

arandWhich resolutions for icons does Unity use by default? Is there any benefit to installing x64 and x128 versions if they are just resized versions of a x256 image?14:26
pittiarand: for most icons, it shouldn't matter; our standard icons are SVG anyway (and thus scale well to any size), and the launcher uses someting in the range of 48 to 6414:27
seb128arand, you can try asking #ubuntu-unity if you want details on what unity uses in the launcher and dash14:28
arandI already did so and got no responase :/14:28
seb128desrt, hey14:28
desrthey14:29
seb128arand, when? maybe it was a bad time and you should try again?14:29
seb128desrt, some bugs,questions for you about the new appmenu show,hide xsettings based14:29
arandAbout an hour ago.14:29
seb128desrt, if you have a few minutes14:29
desrtseb128: for you, i have _hours_14:30
desrt:)14:30
seb128;-)14:30
seb128desrt, ok, so first some people uninstall appmenu-gtk to get ride of the appmenu in oneiric14:30
seb128desrt, interesting side effect is that they get the xsettings set because unity-panel-service is running but the menus not exported...14:31
seb128desrt, in precise14:31
seb128where should that be fixed? (trying to figure where to send the bug)14:31
seb128in the gtk patch?14:31
desrtit should be fixed by telling them to stop running the appmenu indicator14:31
seb128ok, so uninstalling indicator-appmenu as well I guess14:32
desrtwell14:32
seb128or installing back appmenu-gtk rather14:32
arandpitti: So there's no benefit to installing smaller icons unless they are actually made for that format? the gtk-icon-cache will generate and store appropriate resizes anyways (so there's no performance benefit)?14:32
desrtisn't the UBUNTU_MENUPROXDY env var only set by the xsession scripts in the case that appmenu-gtk is installed?14:32
desrt80appmenu:export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"14:32
desrt80appmenu-gtk3:export UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="libappmenu.so"14:32
seb128desrt, right, thing is that if you uninstall the gtk3 version only you still get the variable14:33
desrtnice house of cards here14:33
seb128which is sort of a mixmatch broken config14:33
chrisccoulsonseb128, have you also seen the bug where people are running nautilus with sudo and not getting a menu at all? ;)14:33
desrtFML.14:33
seb128chrisccoulson, shush, that's my second one14:33
chrisccoulsonlol14:33
seb128chrisccoulson, you are spoling my question!14:33
kenvandinechrisccoulson, that makes sense, no env variable set14:33
seb128ok14:33
kenvandine:)14:34
chrisccoulsonkenvandine, right :)14:34
kenvandineannoying though14:34
seb128desrt, so second is what chrisccoulson mentioned14:34
seb128not specific to nautilus14:34
seb128sudo gedit is the same14:34
desrtcan we just kill our stupid users?14:34
chrisccoulsonYES!14:34
* kenvandine thinks we need a better way than setting env14:34
desrtlet's have the same conversation about what happens if you do X forwarding14:34
seb128gsettings key?14:34
desrti bet the answer is sort of the same!14:34
kenvandinedesrt, if it wasn't for users, our job would be AWESOME :)14:34
kenvandineseb128, that would be better i think14:35
pittiarand: I don't think gtk-icon-cache caches pre-rendered icons14:35
chrisccoulsondesrt, we need a "if (getuid() == 0) exit(-EDUMBASS)" in gtk14:35
seb128kenvandine, I don't think the issue is the environment, sudo doesn't strip it, does it?14:36
seb128$ sudo sh -c "echo $UBUNTU_MENUPROXY"14:36
seb128libappmenu.so14:36
kenvandinebut we would need to disable them if libappmenu isn't loaded or the setting was disabled14:36
kenvandineseb128, how about gtksu ?14:36
kenvandinei think it might14:36
seb128desrt has a point that Xorg forwarding will hit similar issues14:36
kenvandinesudo from a terminal i think is ok14:37
seb128kenvandine, well first, should stuff running with sudo have their menus exported or not?14:37
desrti wonder if xsettings was the wrong approach14:37
seb128kenvandine, no it's not14:37
kenvandinebut "Run as" kind of thing is broken14:37
kenvandineok14:37
seb128kenvandine, sudo gedit leads to the bug since the xsettings is set for the session14:37
seb128without consideration for the user14:37
seb128kenvandine, the menu showing in precise is done based on the xsettings14:38
kenvandineok14:38
desrtseb128: for the first complaint my answer is that you need to educate your users (which will probably happen automatically on various forums)14:39
desrtseb128: for the second complaint my answer is... uhm... i dunno14:39
seb128desrt, thrid one, is that gnotravex stopped having is gmenu showing in unity appmenu where that was working during the rally ... do you know why?14:39
desrtno.  i find that most curious.14:39
seb128:-(14:39
desrtoh.  yes.14:40
desrtit makes sense, actually14:40
seb128oh?14:40
desrtso gtk checks the xsettings property to determine if it should show the menu locally14:40
desrtit sees that shell-shows-menu is set and decides the answer is "no"14:40
desrtwhich means that the gtk module has nothing to rip out14:40
seb128ok, makes sense14:41
desrti think it may have been a mistake to use the same xsettings for two very similar but not-quite-the-same meanings14:41
seb128desrt, you still plan to make appmenu consume gmenus this cycle? i.e to fix that?14:41
seb128desrt, I don't care much about 1, but I'm a bit nervous about the sudo, fwd and gmenu on unity stuff for the lts ;-)14:42
desrti wasn't planning on it, no14:42
desrtbut it seems like i may have to14:42
seb128desrt, so you think the current xsettings are not a good fit after all?14:43
desrtthe trouble with any dbus-based scheme for knowing when to have the menus is that we get into that silly dancing-menu situation14:43
desrtxsettings are solid and there right from the start.  nothing to wait for.14:43
jbichaepiphany also uses the new appmenu but I was leaving that in the gnome3 ppa until webkit migrates to precise14:44
jbichaI suspect several of the games will be using the new menu soon14:44
desrtjbicha: several already are14:44
seb128jbicha, right, gnotravex is my testcase in precise14:44
desrtseb128: for the record, i consider the gnotravex case to be the only truly worrying one14:44
seb128desrt, doing sudo gedit and having no menu is a bit annoying as well, people do need to edit system files ;-)14:45
desrtseb128: i'm with chrisccoulson on this point14:45
desrtg_assert (getuid() != 0);14:45
seb128what do you recommend?14:45
seb128how do you tell users to edit system files?14:45
desrtnano?14:45
chrisccoulsonvim!14:45
seb128...14:45
chrisccoulson:-)14:45
seb128not very constructive guys :p14:46
seb128I agree the nautilus case is on crack14:46
seb128but I disagree the "edit files in etc using gedit" is14:46
desrtit's equally bad14:46
desrtthat said, i don't think that this particular way of failing is really acceptable14:46
desrtagain -- i'd prefer if it exploded in your face immediately14:47
desrtbut i doubt you'll want to do that14:47
jbichawe should just crash when we fail! ;)14:47
desrtjbicha: GSettings-style software engineering practices :)14:48
kenvandinegrrr14:48
kenvandinei hate that :)14:49
ricotzi know14:49
desrtwhat we need is a reliable way to determine if we are in the proper session14:49
desrtie: detect these weird sudo/x11-fwd cases14:49
desrtinteresting story14:49
seb128yeah14:49
desrti was talking to christian hammond (chipx86) over the weekend14:49
desrtand he said that your gtk patching makes his life absolutely miserable14:49
desrtit interacts quite badly with vmware's native-window thing14:50
desrtbecause it rips the menu out of the window14:50
desrtbut then vmware puts the window on the windows machine14:50
seb128desrt, I'm not even sure why the sudo case is not working, would it make sense to use the current user session bus for sudo as well?14:50
desrtand the menu is nowhere to be found14:50
desrtso this is another related issue...14:50
desrtseb128: that's a really complicated question that you're not likely to get a satisfactory answer to14:50
seb128ok, not the way to go then14:51
desrtseb128: mostly because any person who is qualified to answer that you ask it to will tell you "don't do that"14:51
seb128desrt, I guess the sudo issue will happen the way under gnome-shell right? like if you run gnotravex it will get no menu right?14:52
desrtquite odd14:52
desrtDISPLAY makes it into sudo14:52
desrtbut DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS does not14:52
desrtseb128: sudo gnotravex? :)14:52
seb128desrt, yes, as a testcase :p14:52
desrtya.  i bet it's broken.14:53
desrt"don't do that"14:53
pittidesrt: DISPLAY is one of the few whitelisted sudo env vars which are kept14:53
desrtpitti: can we turn that off? :)14:53
pitti./plugins/sudoers/env.c, initial_keepenv_table[]14:53
pittidesrt: err, no?14:53
desrtpitti: of all people i know that i don't need to have the "sudo [x application] is bad" conversation with you :)14:53
pittidesrt: well, you can turn it off for a particular call, or in /etc/sudoers, but we use it for $deity knows many things, and so do users14:54
pittidesrt: well, it's not that I like them, but people do use them..14:54
desrtright.  fair enough.14:54
jbichaoh wow, this hud things brings back memories of Office XP's personalized menus14:54
desrtso it's pretty simple14:54
desrtwe need a robust mechanism for determining if the connecting client is in the "native context" of the x server14:55
pittidesrt: there was an entire project and library (libgksu/gksu/gksudo) written around it, so apparently it's useful14:55
desrtwhich in this case means "can connect to the same session bus"14:55
pittidesrt: although in the past it was a lot more important14:55
pittidesrt: like, "gksu synaptics" in a .desktop file14:55
pittithese days we have polkit and root-running d-bus backends and all that14:55
pittiwe aren't quite at zero yet, but very close14:55
desrtpitti: indeed... that's what i was getting at14:55
desrtall of this will soon be an unpleasant memory14:56
pittinot that pkexec would be any better, though :)14:56
pitti(if you use it to launch X-ish stuff)14:56
desrtso i have a thought14:56
desrtunix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-JZ8XIKEi1E,guid=80949262084dbaf430eea21d0000001114:56
desrtinstead of storing the shell-shows-app-menu property as a bool14:56
desrtwe could store the dbus guid14:57
desrtand we only consider it valid if we have the same guid on our own session bus14:57
pittidesrt: in fact, I think I (well, apport) is one of the last bad guys, aside from checkbox-gtk and update-notifier14:57
desrtotherwise we ignore it, because obviously it won't be working anyway14:57
desrtthat will catch every broken case14:57
desrtthis may well break in a systemd future, though14:58
pittijbicha: do you know whether freerdp will be uploaded to Debian soon?14:59
pittijbicha: (you committed 1.0 to git, but wasn't uploaded yet)14:59
seb128desrt, well let's do it in a way which works in the present and adapt it to what is available in the futur when that happens14:59
desrtseb128: i want to make sure that it continues to be possible to do this without synchronous dbus calls14:59
seb128desrt, well I guess at this point it's better to switch to a bug or list discussion15:00
desrtinteresting15:01
desrtgdbusconnection has a "guid" property15:01
jbichapitti: the issue is that someone else proposed different packaging for freerdp and I'm not sure what of that needs to be added to git15:03
jbichahttp://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=64749815:03
ubot2`Debian bug 647498 in freerdp "freerdp: Consider packaging git snapshot?" [Wishlist,Open]15:03
pittijbicha: ah, thanks; I'll have a look ASAP15:04
jbichapitti: thanks15:04
pittijbicha: probably tomorrow, though, need to run in about 20 mins15:04
seb128pitti, will you be back for the meeting if there is one?15:05
seb128pitti, or do you want me to handle it?15:05
seb128pitti, well "it" the "ping people and see if we do a meeting" ;-)15:06
seb128pitti, ignore the question I just read your reminder email after the first line :p15:06
didrocksseb128: what, there is content in the email reminder?15:06
didrocksit's just not a link to click on it? :p15:07
seb128didrocks, :-p15:07
pittiseb128: would be nice, thanks15:07
seb128didrocks, I learnt my lesson ;-)15:07
seb128pitti, will do15:07
pittiseb128: but I don't think we'll have one, no items until now15:07
seb128pitti, right, it's likely we will not, still I can do a round of ping and see if any topic comes15:08
seb128pitti, I know nessita want to make a call for endorsements for her per package upload application wikipage15:08
nessitayes I do!15:08

didrockshey cyphermox15:21
didrockscyphermox: seems I can't activate the bluetooth anymore15:21
cyphermoxhey didrocks15:21
didrocksare you aware about such issues?15:22
cyphermoxhow's it look?15:22
cyphermoxthere's tons of issues with bluetooth ;_;15:22
didrockslike, the menu just shows "bluetooth active/disable settings"15:22
didrocksnot the long menu like before15:22
cyphermoxdidrocks: are you using a usb bluetooth dongle or integrated?15:22
didrocksand if I start gnome-control-center15:22
didrockscyphermox: it's integrated15:22
cyphermoxdidrocks: problem would be that bluetoothd isn't running for you15:22
didrocksI can't enabled it15:23
didrocksah15:23
didrocksshould I launch it?15:23
cyphermoxyou can, and it's going to solve the issue for you15:23
cyphermoxI'm still working on figuring out why the hell it won't start on boot like it was so clearly working so well before15:24
pittigood night everyone! need to run now15:24
didrockshave a good night pitti15:24
didrockscyphermox: hum, it exits immediatly15:25
cyphermoxit does?15:25
didrocksthere is no verbose mode15:25
didrocksyeah15:25
cyphermoxno, it daemonizes15:25
didrocksexit 0!15:25
cyphermoxps -ef | grep bluetoothd15:25
cyphermox?15:25
didrockscyphermox: nothing15:25
cyphermoxf you want to start it with verbose, use  /usr/sbin/bluetoothd -d -n15:26
didrockscyphermox: oh, I got it15:26
didrocksdisabling it in the indicator15:26
didrocksand enabling it again15:26
didrocksand now, I have a daemon15:26
cyphermoxwhy was it not starting? any idea?15:26
didrocksreallly not :/15:27
cyphermoxthe indicator can't do anything if the daemon isn't there :/15:27
didrocksseems it thinked it was already there15:27
cyphermoxok15:27
didrockscyphermox: there is three items in the indicator, isn't it?15:27
didrocksenable15:27
didrocksdisable15:27
didrockssettings15:27
didrocksenable was already "on"15:27
didrocksnot sure what I can provide you as debug info next time15:28
seb128the indicator is buggy though, don't trust it, trust rather the control center15:28
didrocksseb128: well, control center didn't let me enabling it15:28
seb128like the indicator indicates "bluetooth: on" on the 10v which has no bluetooth hardware15:28
didrocksit told just it's dsabled15:28
cyphermoxdidrocks: there should be more like 7-8 items in the indicator really15:28
didrockscyphermox: now there is more15:28
didrocksbut before, when it wasn't working, just those 315:28
cyphermoxyeah15:28
cyphermoxcan't know what bluetooth you have until the daemon is running15:29
cyphermoxbrb, upstart debugging15:30
seb128re16:34
seb128sorry took a bit longer that I though (roads are busy at 5pm!)16:34

kenvandinegrrr21:12
kenvandineseb128, unity is the last FTBFS i have with the rebuild for libindicator21:13
kenvandineit is failing because of deprecations21:13
kenvandinehow can i make cmake not eat the CXXFLAGS?21:13
seb128kenvandine, can't you just drop -Werror from the CMakeList?21:14
kenvandinei could probably do that... but i would rather work around it in the rules file21:15
seb128good luck then21:15
kenvandinei'll do that for now...21:15
seb128I just patched the CMakeList when I did an upload for unity21:15
kenvandinethis libindicator abi break has been a pita!21:15
kenvandinea bunch of FTBFS for deprecations21:16
kenvandinewe need to get those fixed21:16
* kenvandine will yell at tedg about that :)21:16
seb128kenvandine, before uploading make sure you don't break stuff like the hud ppa by jumping versions ahead, or coordinate with ted,gord,didrocks21:16
kenvandinei can bump the hud version21:17
seb128kenvandine, if tedg was doing review and rolling tarballs yeah, we are mid-cycle and we didn't get any indicator update yet21:17
tedgkenvandine, Uhg, I forgot about the GTK3 deprecations.21:18
kenvandinetedg, don't worry, i'll be getting you a list of the failures :)21:19
kenvandinelibappindicator fails too with the python bindings21:19
kenvandinei have a branch to fix that21:19
tedgOh, didn't expect that one.21:19
tedgCan we drop those?21:19
tedgOr do we need them for the GTK2 case?21:20
kenvandinei say leave them for now21:20

seb128using "manager->priv->dialog" rather than "window" break again the sound playing in the notifications21:40
rodrigo_seb128, oh, iirc it's happened several times21:40
seb128I was wondering if you did it for a reason21:40
rodrigo_on that patch, window is set at the beginning of the function, iirc21:41
rodrigo_so was just a mistake, just making it apply21:41
seb128rodrigo_, ok, great, that's what I though but I wanted to check21:41
seb128I reverted that line and that makes the sound work again21:41
rodrigo_I think it should be 'ca_gtk_play_for_widget (window,21:41
seb128but I wanted to check if you did it for a reason21:41

desrtseb128: gee issue is fixed now22:01
desrtalthough the patch to vala causes a regression in folks now22:02
seb128desrt, in libgee git? 0.6 serie as well?22:02
desrtseb128: well, it was a vala patch22:02
jbichaseb128: ok, I'm uploading the patched webkit now22:02
desrtso gee needs to do a new release that was built using the new vala22:02
seb128ok22:02
seb128desrt, is there any sign of a vala release? ;-)22:02
desrtseb128: the folks regression is a bug in folks itself22:02
desrtuncovered by the new gobject strictness stuff plus the new way the vala compiler deals with property overrides22:03
desrtthey plan to fix it up in folks22:03
desrti think we'll see a vala release quite soon22:03
desrtjuergbi has been running around in the forrest lately22:03
desrtwhich is why we didn't have one already22:03
seb128jbicha, thanks22:03
desrti think you'll probably see one in the following days22:04

=== m_conley is now known as m_conley_away

* desrt is terminally confused22:05
seb128what about those?22:05
seb128we are on 0.622:05
desrt0.6 is 1.0 and 0.8 is 0.8 or something?22:05
seb128seems GNOME was unsure if this cycle is going to see a 0.8 or stay on 0.622:06
seb128desrt, oh, dunno, I assumed that 0.6 is current stable and 0.7 current unstable22:06
seb128not sure if they have a schedule for 0.822:06
desrtthere's some additional complication, i understand22:06
desrti'm sure we'll see what happens22:06
seb128right22:07
desrtin any case, i think there was a new gee release made22:07
desrtand it was built using my patch to vala before the fixes were actually applied to vala git itself22:07
seb128oh, good to know22:08
seb128desrt, they rolled a tarball for each serie22:08
desrtit was a 0.7 though22:08
seb1280.6 and 0.722:08
desrtoh.  that's good22:08
desrtlet me see if it was built with the new vala22:08
desrtyes.  it was.22:09
desrtif you package that, the warnings should go away22:09
