| ali_ | 'E:Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2: No such file or directory), E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.' | 18:57 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: can u please push for the council meeting ? and try to make on IRC please ? | 18:58 |
| ali_ | Anyone can help | 18:58 |
| ali_ | 'E:Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2: No such file or directory), E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.' | 18:58 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, it's too hard to make it on IRC, you know, ppl totally unfamiliar :( | 18:58 |
| ashams | ali_, I'm searching on it | 18:59 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, I talked to anas on fb and he probably wont come | 18:59 |
| ali_ | ashams, me to and try mutli solutions | 18:59 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, I'll invite the whole team on the general ml | 18:59 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: seriously IRC is a lot better | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | to allow people to follow what the council is doing | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | specially that we had a lot of down time ... | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | there were complains about the 4 month period | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | and considering it short, now it's evern shorter ... | 19:00 |
| ashams | ok, I'll try with them, hope they accept | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: i don't think you should invite anyone outside the council | 19:00 |
| thelinuxer | not even me | 19:01 |
| ali_ | 'E:Could not open file /var/lib/dpkg/status - open (2: No such file or directory), E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.' | 19:01 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, Y? this doesn't make sense | 19:01 |
| thelinuxer | we will tell people about the meeting | 19:01 |
| thelinuxer | and they can come and follow .. | 19:01 |
| ashams | ali_, what are you trying to do when it gives you this? | 19:02 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, ok, dude | 19:02 |
| thelinuxer | participation is not a necessity | 19:02 |
| ashams | one sec | 19:02 |
| ali_ | ashams, http://askubuntu.com/questions/34179/update-manager-can-not-open-due-to-missing-var-lib-dpkg-status | 19:04 |
| ashams | ali_, hahaha, I'm on it :-) | 19:04 |
| ashams | ali_, have you tried any of these commands? | 19:05 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, mgamal wont agree, he will want it in person, methink | 19:06 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: we can convince mgamal | 19:06 |
| thelinuxer | just it would easier for everyone to follow your meeting on IRC | 19:07 |
| thelinuxer | also u'll have the log | 19:07 |
| ali_ | ashams, Prolem solved | 19:07 |
| ashams | ali_, coool | 19:07 |
| thelinuxer | reporting will be easier isA | 19:07 |
| ali_ | thelinuxer, about mouse wireless problem | 19:07 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, but wazery and jonathan have no connection already | 19:07 |
| thelinuxer | ali_: the problem is that I am outside cairo and the internet connection is horrible :D | 19:08 |
| ali_ | thelinuxer, mouse brand rock tech | 19:08 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: can u please help him again with the mouse problem ? | 19:08 |
| ali_ | thelinuxer, OK | 19:08 |
| ashams | sure, I just don't know enough about it | 19:08 |
| ashams | ali_, what happens plz | 19:08 |
| ashams | ? | 19:08 |
| thelinuxer | it's a wireless mouse with that small usb part | 19:08 |
| thelinuxer | it should be detected as normal usb mouse | 19:09 |
| thelinuxer | but it causes the system to hang, am i right ali_ ? | 19:09 |
| ashams | ali_, "small usb port"? | 19:09 |
| thelinuxer | part* | 19:10 |
| ashams | part? ezay ya3ni, ya ali_ :-) | 19:10 |
| ashams | hahaha | 19:10 |
| thelinuxer | bos it's a bluetooth mouse | 19:11 |
| thelinuxer | bas it's not directly connected to the pc with bluetooth | 19:11 |
| thelinuxer | there is a small bluetooth usb stick keda | 19:11 |
| ashams | aaaaaaaaaaaaah | 19:11 |
| thelinuxer | u insert it into the usb port and the mouse is detected by the system as normal usb mouse | 19:11 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: back to the meeting issue | 19:11 |
| ashams | so the problem is about detecting that external bluetooth device | 19:12 |
| thelinuxer | if there is an issue related specifically to this meeting then I guess it's ok | 19:12 |
| thelinuxer | ashams: but we should try our best to make it on IRC | 19:12 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, what issue ya man, you are too ambiguous today... | 19:13 |
| thelinuxer | i mean is there is an issue that would need this meeting to be offline then go ahead and do it offline, got it ? | 19:14 |
| ashams | yes | 19:14 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, what you think should be added to the agenda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EgyptTeam/Meetings/Agendas/2012-02-0X | 19:15 |
| thelinuxer | r we done with ali_'s problem :D ? | 19:16 |
| thelinuxer | we should have a separate page for council meetins, don't u think ? | 19:16 |
| ashams | thelinuxer, no way | 19:17 |
| thelinuxer | y > | 19:17 |
| ashams | council should stay inside the loop, not separate | 19:17 |
| thelinuxer | ? | 19:17 |
| ashams | even I thought why it uses separate ml after all | 19:18 |
| ashams | ali_, 's problem; searching | 19:18 |
| thelinuxer | what do u mean by inside the loop ? | 19:18 |
| thelinuxer | what if someone is interested in council meetings only, they should find it easily not look through a big list | 19:18 |
| thelinuxer | bos the same trick we use for the meetings listing we can do it in the same page | 19:19 |
| thelinuxer | different search path ... | 19:19 |
| ashams | if someone is interested in council meetings only, let him/her go find another team | 19:20 |
| ashams | ubuntu-eg is not about the council | 19:20 |
| === Saad|away is now known as Saad_ | ||
| ashams | council is just a spit on team's face, and have nothing with the real activity | 19:20 |
| ashams | if some1 wants to be active, let him/her be active | 19:20 |
| ashams | what him/her would do if s/he can't vote in | 19:21 |
| ashams | council meetings should be announced on the general ml and minutes will follow | 19:21 |
| ashams | if s/he want to follow that ml, s/he will find it, of course | 19:22 |
| ashams | council is not a main part, just a side one :-) | 19:23 |
| ashams | ali_, have you tried to install the bluetooth device before connecting the mouse to it? | 19:24 |

| seiflotfy | "sudo mkdir /var/lib/dpkg/updates" then "sudo chmod 755 /var/lib/dpkg/updates" | 19:49 |
| seiflotfy | ashams: if a pkg manager would be running he would get a locked error | 19:49 |
