[00:00] BarkingFish: commit message was: fix use-after-free bug in my patch [00:00] yofel, thats great. :) [00:00] hm. I hadn't spotted anything wrong, seriously. Guess I need to brush up a bit. [00:00] I've looked at it, but it's not easy to read a diff of a diff [00:01] 0.o [00:01] I'll take your word for it :) [00:02] :) why when apply a patch/diff some time output is garbage? [00:03] I have no idea. However, I do know it's just gone midnight here, so I'm gonna go finish knitting my scarf and go to bed. See you guys tomorrow, sorry for the short stay but I'm tired. [00:04] bbfn guys === tazz_ is now known as tazz [01:09] any one awake? [01:09] some one with packing skills. [01:11] me [01:12] not for long thoug [01:12] h [01:14] yofel, I can make package, but how if the thing I wanted to build does not have debian folder [01:14] with all neccesery stuff [01:15] running 'dh_make' will make an intial folder with the files in it, but you'll still need to know how to make it work in the end [01:16] yofel, thats the thing. [01:16] because normally when I take from source [01:17] I have already debian folder and I know how to modify to get it work [01:17] dh_make will it give empty rules [01:17] changelog [01:17] compat [01:17] hm, yeah, initial packaging can be tricky, see the ubuntu packaging guide or the debian new maintainers guide on how to make a package [01:17] etc? [01:18] or ping me tomorrow, I'm too tired now [01:18] yofel, :) I will bing you tomorrow. have nice sleep. [01:18] dh_make will add the files not totally empty, but still not in a state that works out of the box I think [01:18] + it adds a lot of files that you won't need [01:19] yofel, okey :) I will chatt with you about this tomorrow. [01:19] thx again for your time yofel [01:19] sure [01:19] if I learn this I can help kubuntu much more [01:19] basic packing I know [01:20] kernel compile to [01:26] * Kurdistan is going to sleep. bed time. have nice evening/day channel. === JackyAlcine_ is now known as JackyAlcine === rdieter_laptop is now known as rdieter === zarvox_ is now known as zarvox [09:13] hi [09:16] hi grmls [09:17] hi riddell [09:21] i have an question. yesterday i found a bug by installing kubuntu oem dvd amd64. this bug recorded in launchpad but why is this bug not recorded in http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/206/builds/11115/testcases/81/results. whats my mistake? (sry for my bad english) [09:25] grmls: we did not test oem for alpha 2 [09:25] lack of time/volunteers. so if there's a bug that's very useful for you to have found [09:25] what's the number? [09:26] #930741 [09:27] bug 930741 [09:27] Launchpad bug 930741 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "installing kubuntu, change keyboard layout in braile" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/930741 [09:28] yeah I didn't even test keyboard changes [09:29] milestoned for beta so we don't forget it [09:30] oh im new. i dont need test oem in alpha 2? so i try better a other iso [09:35] grmls: we should have tested it yes, and if we'd had enough testers we would have [09:35] so it's very good you testing it now and finding bugs === alvin_ is now known as alvin [09:39] is there an iso with high preference? [09:43] grmls: ? whatever can do and isn't already much tested is what we want from iso testing [09:49] okay === yofel_ is now known as yofel [11:01] morning [11:01] morning [11:06] hi yofel [11:10] ScottK: what's the workaround for the bug you posted on kubuntu-devel? [11:15] yay I can logout again [11:16] thanks yofel for sharing that workaround :) [11:16] sure :) [11:17] we definitely need to enable that [11:18] as apachelogger said, enabling that shortly before final freeze is probably best [11:18] although I would turn it off again once Q opens up [11:42] it has been broken for a few releases so imho there is no point in waiting [11:43] well, I added myself a TODO item for this so I don't forget about it [12:19] hi channel [13:31] 'morning all [13:31] BluesKaj, morning. [13:31] hi Kurdistan [13:31] nm widget buttons looks good now [13:32] :) backport updates yesterday fixed it. [13:33] ok, no NM in my system , so I din't know the widget was broken [13:33] BluesKaj, what are you using? [13:33] kde network manager? [13:34] he's not even using network manager [13:34] no, /etc/network/interfaces file and /etc/resolv.conf [13:34] me neither on my desktop [13:34] BluesKaj, server? [13:35] Kurdistan, there's no need for NM on an ethernet connection , well mostly [13:35] BluesKaj, I see. [13:35] I am using laptop :). [13:38] ok , if you have any desktop ethernet nics then this example is one of the tutorials I used, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ [13:40] debfx, yofel: turning it on now will potentially prevent more annoying bug reports to the broken products [13:47] yofel, I see /etc/resolv.conf is now overwritten by /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/head ... why the change? , altho i found a workaround by adding my dns settings to the "head" file which in turn transfers them to /etc/resolv.conf [13:47] the potential of it being fixed is very minimal however [13:48] BluesKaj, I like the widget. [13:48] BluesKaj: from what I read about it, ubuntu is trying to unity resolv.conf editing and now uses resolvconf by default [13:48] that's all I know [13:48] s/unity/unify [13:48] Kurdistan, well, to each his own :) [13:51] yofel, it does prevent ppl from screwing up their resolv.conf thereby losing their internet connection , it makes some sense alright [13:56] why is kmail always buggy when I try? [13:57] I feel kubuntu could change out some qt stuff for like thunderbird [13:57] and firefox instead of rekonq [13:59] no, we discussed that often enough. For 12.04 we're not switching anything. [14:05] yofel, okey. still kmail have always been buggy. [14:05] kmail if it was not buggy it is really good. [14:05] no, it has been buggy since it started using akonadi to be precise [14:06] kmail1 was great [14:06] yofel, I started with kde in real with kde 4.6.5 [14:06] so I am not so :) well known how it was before [14:06] doing LTS upgrade testing with kdepim is going to be so not funny... [14:08] yofel, :). [14:21] * BluesKaj avoids kmail/kontact and disables akonadi ..have no need for it since my ISP contracted my email service out to hotmail anyway so I just use webmils like bell mail and gmail [14:22] krusader does for me what nepomuk does for ohers , but it's not as invasiv [14:23] invasive [14:31] debfx: the more annoyance the higher the likelyhood gets :) [14:43] for those of you whao are having GPG key errors , here's a neat little app/ppa that will help get the missing keys a rid you of the error messages ..it's probly been posted befoe but I think it needs reposting , http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/automatically-import-all-missing.html [14:46] debfx: Sorry. I thought it was in the bug. [14:49] debfx: Added to the bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/641712/comments/24 [14:49] Ubuntu bug 641712 in kde-workspace (Ubuntu) "Not possible to enter password for a new user in KDM (Maverick, Natty and Oneiric)" [High,Confirmed] [14:55] those options look a bit more scary [14:55] yofel: kmail works fine here [14:56] apachelogger: not for me [14:56] ScottK: I'll look at them and talk to ossi later [14:56] debfx: or do you want to? [14:57] did someone upload kde-hud btw? [14:57] yofel: Thanks. [14:58] apachelogger: I made some test package that I never tried, no idea if someone else did something [14:58] awesome [14:58] debfx: I've been using them since at least maverick with no issue. Unless someone has an alternative solution, I think it's likely a better default because the password change thing is a rather common problem to have. [14:59] But I'm not sure, which is why I'm glad yofel is going to talk to ossi. [15:01] ScottK: it can lead to weird issues when external windows/widgets come into play [15:01] e.g. different auth plugins [15:02] or onscreen kbds [15:02] How common is that compared to just wanting to set a password for a new user. [15:02] I agree it's not ideal. [15:02] which is why want a qml greeter [15:02] so the entire we-have-to-manage-windows-but-have-no-window-manager situation can be avoided [15:06] apachelogger, so hud is available [15:06] eh? [15:07] apachelogger, I thought it was only available in gnome/unity [15:07] there is a prototype using krunner [15:07] hud that is [15:09] ok [15:10] yofel: won't complain if you do it :) [15:10] I'll do it then ^^ === bulldog is now known as bulldog98 === tsimpson_ is now known as tsimpson [16:05] eh [16:05] debfx: whatever happend to synl10n in pkg-kde-tools? [16:07] Darkwing: whatever happend with starship troopers? [16:08] they made a terrible sequel... [16:13] * BluesKaj wonders how a pangolin can be precise ...methinks canonical needs consierably more logic in the OS name choices...talk about lame :) [16:14] s/canonical/sabdfl/ [16:14] yofel: You did something wrong... Try s/you/me/ or tell me "help sed" [16:27] who is this sabdfl? [16:41] someone who's favorite color seems to be orange [16:41] *whose [16:43] !sabdfl [16:43] Mark "sabdfl" Shuttleworth is our favourite cosmonaut, the founder of Canonical and the primary driver behind Ubuntu. You can find pieces of his thinking at http://www.markshuttleworth.com [16:43] :D [16:43] apachelogger: he is yur overlord... [16:45] never seen him here [16:45] EBADMANAGEMENT [16:59] hmmm kubuntu_remove_startkde_cruft.diff [16:59] what is that about? [17:00] where did you find that? [17:01] kde-workspace apparently [17:01] see the conversation, especially the bottom of it here https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183143 [17:01] KDE bug 183143 in kcm_randr "Display Settings are Lost on Logout" [Normal,Reopened] [17:02] they are not lost, just not applied [17:03] apachelogger: you have never seen sabdfl here? seriously? [17:03] ~seen sabdfl [17:03] sabdfl was last seen 7 months, 3 days, 3 hours, 43 minutes and 11 seconds ago, quitting IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer) [17:03] not in a while ^^ [17:03] not in a while != never (; [17:07] yofel: that packaging and patches should be here, right? https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/kde-workspace [17:07] yeah, found it [17:09] I wonder if that bug could be fixed, so I finally can reboot my work laptop (: [17:09] haven't tried that fix there yet [17:10] Tm_T: are you on oneiric or precise? [17:10] oneiric [17:10] 4.8.0 [17:10] all was fine before that upgrade [17:10] k, I'll make a quick test package with that patch disabled [17:10] I believe that patch cannot apply cleanly anyway on 4.8.0 [17:10] well, it does [17:11] interesting [17:11] "apply on startup" should be true I suppose [17:11] as (not) applying the config is the problem [17:13] er no, all we do is remove the lines, so if I remove the patch it'll be false [17:13] but I guess the lines below are needed [17:13] ye [17:14] it's all a mess if you ask me in overall, so what works and what not is hard to figure out without testing /: [17:23] apachelogger: what's that? [17:25] debfx: a target that would update our kde-l10n copy scripts [17:27] Tm_T: I’ve got a patch that could be included [17:27] into kde-workopace [17:27] bulldog98: tested one? [17:27] aha, well gone with the rest of translation stripping [17:27] Tm_T: my own [17:28] bulldog98: which is? [17:28] bulldog98: yes but is it tested? [17:28] and what it is supposed to fix exactly (: [17:28] yofel: it’s a patch I wrote yesterday to fix tiling with activities [17:29] https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/103953/ [17:29] we can cherry pick that after review [17:29] ok [17:30] Tm_T: are you on amd64 or i386 [17:31] amd64 [17:32] I wonder if I can test that randr issue at home any sensible way [17:32] ah, yes [17:36] yofel: Tm_T stop calling it amd64, the politically correct term is x86_64 :( [17:36] I know, tell that launchpad [17:36] and dpkg [17:37] I usually get queries like " Oh I have a Intel CPU, will this ISO install on my PC?" [17:38] oh yeah [17:38] dpkg uses amd64 as well? [17:38] dpkg-- [17:38] well, yeah: xz-utils_5.1.1alpha+20110809-3_amd64.deb [17:38] blame ia64 for that naming [17:39] :) [17:39] apachelogger: plz2comment on http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=68732 [17:39] eeeep [17:39] https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=293030 [17:39] KDE bug 293030 in KDE4 (cmake) "po files do not build due to cmake error - FindGettext cmake bug" [Normal,Reopened] [17:40] specifically comment 5 [17:42] shadeslayer_: what am I to comment|? [17:42] apachelogger: explain what you tried to explain to me a couple of days ago :P [17:43] well [17:43] alex already explained why this does not work [17:43] which is what I said, not a bug [17:43] simply a policy decision [17:44] *shrug* [17:44] yofel: nah, removing or adjusting the patch makes no difference here [17:44] not well enough to dive into CMake .... [17:44] yofel: kde desktop has always native resolution no matter what saved settings say [17:45] so even adding those lines to /usr/bin/startkde it still doesn't work? [17:45] this is not funny [17:45] yofel: yup [17:45] hm [17:46] well, I found another issue while looking at this, so thanks for poking anyway.. [17:46] lol [17:46] is that a IE ad in the Ubuntu HUD video on OMGUbuntu [17:48] shadeslayer_, hud will be cooler with kde [17:48] :P [17:48] krunner plugin are working progress [17:48] Most of the stuff shown is already doable with krunner [17:49] Also, stuff like setting a IM message by using the HUD is what I proposed last year [17:50] being able to chat with online contacts etc stuff like that [17:50] directly from krunner [17:50] krunner rules [17:50] :) [17:52] what happend to fat fast setting or something like that [17:52] to run kubuntu with low specs [17:53] shadeslayer_: you could like totally upload kde-hud [17:53] Tm_T: it does seem like the patch was re-enabled on accident though [17:53] to some ppa [17:54] it was disabled in 4.7 [17:54] apachelogger: meta package that pulls in KDE? :P [17:54] * yofel still hasn't found out where that patch came from in the first place [17:54] yofel: please inform shadeslayer_ about kde-hud [17:54] or afiestas [17:55] or someone [17:55] apachelogger: ah that, the search thing from help menu's? [17:55] I saw that last year [17:55] but then no one made any progress :( [17:56] * yofel is still digging through the forest of workspace patches [17:56] krunner is awesome once you disable a couple of the plugins... most notable the nepomuk one. [17:57] *notably [17:57] superfly, +1 [17:57] great, where's jonthetaco when you need him [17:57] * Add kubuntu_72_remove_startkde_cruft.diff to remove test for a setting in [17:57] kcmrandrrc that doesn't exist anymore. (KDE expects krandrtray to handle [17:57] resolution setting on startup now...) [17:58] Tm_T: do you have krandrtray running? [17:58] * superfly won't talk about the big mess that is Kontact/Akonadi [17:58] yofel: what's the question? [17:59] <-- rewrote startkde in cpp once, just for the sake of seeing if it was any faster [17:59] it was not :P [17:59] apachelogger: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183143 which people claim is our fault [17:59] KDE bug 183143 in kcm_randr "Display Settings are Lost on Logout" [Normal,Reopened] [17:59] which might very well be the case [18:00] more like the current patch doesn't do what the original one was supposed to do [18:00] lemme enter markey [18:01] Riddell: you don't by chance remember why you re-enabled that? [18:04] yofel: utter rubbish [18:04] yofel: the kcm does not even write those lines [18:04] only startupcommand thingy [18:04] well, why is that in startkde then? [18:04] so the startkde rubbish is still crap and actually should be removed upstream [18:04] I wonder why we did not remove it back when the patch was introduced [18:05] yofel: because no one in kde gives a shit about display settings... [18:05] which is why it does not work to begin with [18:05] go tell them then [18:05] no [18:05] I am doing phonon QA [18:05] I'm utterly confused by now [18:05] also afiestas is doing fixy fixy for that stuff anyway [18:10] uhm, ok, after taking a quick glance, yeah, krandr is a mess... [18:12] take kephal into the picture and you'll start crying :P [18:15] have nice day every one. going to log out. [18:15] yofel, thx again. [18:15] np [18:27] hm, no, removing the patch doesn't work here either [18:28] u no trust me? :O [18:28] :'( [18:52] * yofel is speechless after reading kstartupconfig/kstartupconfig.c [19:13] actually, calling this an utter mess is an understatement [19:14] after looking at this for over an hour I *still* have no idea what is *supposed* to set the resolution at login [19:29] yofel: nothing [19:29] the only reasonable way right now would krandrtray in autostart [19:29] which worked for some time [19:29] but is broken now [19:29] god knows why [19:29] yeah, I'm reading the comments now and will post a request for someone to explain this to me [19:30] as I've given up on this [19:30] what SANE C code in the world uses goto?!? [19:35] yofel: pretty much all of it [19:35] * shadeslayer_ hates goto [19:36] I was reading libnice code and it has goto's all over the place to handle error conditions [19:36] well, feel free to read kstartupconfig.c - that is a perfect example for unmaintainable code [19:36] nah thanks, I'm having a field day with glib threads [19:37] I have a trivial problem in my code, can't figure it out [19:37] yofel: https://gist.github.com/1803805 < Some sane C code [19:37] will look at it in a bit [19:38] and even that uses goto [19:49] evening all :) [19:49] Hi dantti :D [19:50] I'm off to sleep, cya [19:50] bbfn shadeslayer_ [19:50] have a good night. [20:23] * apachelogger dances in the kitchen [20:23] yofel: goto is the single most useful feature of C [20:24] particularly in kstartupconfig, cause as you might have noticed, it is tuned towards performance :P [20:25] it saves... what? a tenth of a second? [20:26] depends on why it is used [20:26] for example in my OS I have plenty of goto to work around missing scoped pointers [20:27] if you collapse code into one function you almost always have to use goto [20:27] otherwise it would become unreadable [20:33] fix gcc instead [20:43] it's just a jump to the left [20:47] apachelogger: Ummmm... [21:12] Tm_T: can you see if you have this? https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183143#c103 [21:12] KDE bug 183143 in kcm_randr "Display Settings are Lost on Logout" [Normal,Reopened] [21:18] I lol'd [21:18] yofel: someone clearly updated the patch to break stuff [21:18] winwinwin [21:19] Riddell did it while merging from debian for 4.7.3 [21:19] I'm dropping the patch [21:20] yofel: ack [21:26] [lp:~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/kde-workspace] Philip Muškovac * 614 * debian/ (4 files in 2 dirs) * Drop kubuntu_remove_startkde_cruft.diff as it breaks krandrstartup * Refresh kubuntu_startkde_set_country.diff [21:31] markey, Mamarok: ^ [21:31] yofel: that done ... krandrtray still does not apply the setting as expected [21:31] :/ [21:33] telling krandr to save the settings as default and dopping the patch did work on my eeepc [21:33] yes [21:34] but krandrtray is not compatible with that :P [21:34] well, *that* isn't our fault ^^ [21:34] just saying [22:53] yofel: mm no sorry, it's quite possible I messed up on the randr stuff when merging [23:02] Riddell: no worries, that was not immediately obvious [23:05] nah, we should've completely removed it in the first place [23:13] hi. is it only for me but when I boot up, kmix start up later then all other widgets? [23:14] noticeable delay [23:34] New python-qt4 and sip4 packaged in Debian. I'll sync them tomorrow. [23:35] thanks ScottK [23:35] NP. [23:35] which reminds me that I have to do some pyth0rn haxx0ring tomorrow \o/ [23:36] I uploaded qscintialla2 earlier today. [23:36] (it was a merge) [23:36] and that reminds me that jockey-kde does not work properly for me
