TheMusoIs it just me, or is anybody else unable to click on an icon in the Unity 3D dash and have it activate?00:24
RAOFTheMuso: Worked here just now.  I do recall that behaviour yesterday, but I was hoping to chalk it up to my built-from-source unity plugin being awkward; it was also crashing like mad.00:29
TheMusoRAOF: Hrm ok. This is after updating to latest packages and a reboot this morning...00:43
RAOFI'm running cleaner stuff now, and it's working.  For now! :)00:44
TheMusohrm ok00:55
RAOFBah, multiarch.  Stop having conflicting changelog.gz01:31
jbichaRAOF: wasn't that supposed to be fixed?01:43
RAOFjbicha: Which particular problem?  Multiarch changelogs sometimes getting into a weird super-awesome conflicty state?01:44
jbichahttp://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=64752201:45
ubot2`Debian bug 647522 in gzip "gzip -9n is not deterministic" [Normal,Open]01:45
RAOFI'm not sure this was actually the same problem.01:47
RAOFBut it might have been.01:47

stgraberrobert_ancell: apparently the new gnome-screensaver doesn't want to let me unlock it... any thought?02:28
robert_ancellstgraber, don't know anything off hand - do you know what version triggered the problem?02:29
jbichastgraber: caps lock? ....lol02:30
stgraberoh, now that's really odd. 3.2.1 was failing for me since I installed it, so I just reverted to 3.2.0 and it worked fine02:30
stgraberbut upgrading again still works02:30
stgraber(obviously killing the gnome-screensaver process)02:30
stgraberjbicha: hehe, I've been unlocking my screensaver from gnome-screensaver-command for a few days now, so believe me, I made sure I'm typing the right password ;)02:31
stgraberthough the fact that downgrading/upgrading worked is really odd, maybe one of the binaries got corrupted somehow02:31
jbichaoh, a few days? wow02:31
stgraberjbicha: yeah, been busy with other things and was initially suspecting some PAM issues, though I then confirmed that pam_unix was indeed called and works fine outside of gnome-screensaver02:33
stgraberanyway, the downgrade/upgrade fixed it AFAICS so I'm happy with that02:33
stgraberI have my laptop configured to lock after a minute of inactivty, so switching to tty1 and back to unlock was getting slightly annoying ;)02:33
jbicha1 minute, that's hardcore02:34
stgraberwell, that's the usual time it takes me to loose sight of my laptop when heading somewhere else, so that way I don't have to remember to lock it02:38
pittiGood morning06:08
pittiLaney: OK, I'll seed these two then06:08
pittiSweetshark: why does libreoffice-gnome not depend on libreoffice-gtk3?06:12
pittiSweetshark: should we seed -gtk3 explicitly?06:12
RAOFYou know what's totally awesome?  Writing tests for asynchronous protocol.06:41
RAOFWait, did I say awesome?  I may have meant painful.06:41
didrocksgood morning06:48
RAOFHey didrocks,  Good morning!06:50
didrocksgood morning RAOF ;)06:50
pittibonjour didrocks07:18
pittihey RAOF07:18
pittidid you have a nice weekend?07:18
didrocksguten morgen pitti, how are you?07:19
didrockswas a nice week-end here, quite short, but really enjoyable :)07:19
pittigot a cold last Friday, so we had a very quiet weekend; getting better, though07:19
didrocksargh, take care!07:19
Sweetsharkpitti: libreoffice-gnome hopefully depends on libreoffice-gtk. libreoffice-gtk3 is still _very_ experimental.08:32
pittiSweetshark: ah, I see; so it should go into universe for now? (because it wants to)08:33
Sweetsharkpitti: yes08:34
pittiSweetshark: ack, moved08:34
ricotzSweetshark, hi, could -gtk3 be an alternative to -gtk? meaning "libreoffice-gtk | libreoffice-gtk3"08:34
ricotzpitti, hello08:35
Sweetsharkricotz: well not yet IMHO. it should be there only for the fearless.08:35
pittihey ricotz, wie gehts?08:35
ricotzSweetshark, alright ;)08:35
ricotzpitti, danke, gut08:35
ricotzich hoffe dir auch08:35
ricotzSweetshark, the build size of libreoffice in ppas is still a huge problem :\08:36
ricotzpitti, are you able to restart this one https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/ppa/+build/3239100 ?08:36
SweetsharkMoin ricotz, pitti, all!08:37
RAOFpitti: I had a very lazy weekend; it was 39C and 37C respectively.  That puts a bit of a crimp on attempting to do anything physical!08:37
ricotzpitti, i am not sure when i cancel it if i am able to retry it afterwards08:37
pittiricotz: yes, I am, but woudl that help anything?08:37
pittiricotz: yes, you should be able to08:37
ricotzpitti, wgrant said the buildd have different sizes08:37
micahgricotz: if you cancel a PPA build, you cannot restart it08:37
ricotzso sometimes it works08:37
pittiah08:37
pittiricotz: I can help you with building it on a particular buildd, but you need to tell me which08:38
ricotzpitti, oh let me look08:38

ricotzhttps://launchpad.net/builders/rutherfordium08:41
pittiI guess it was taken down again for other purposes08:41
Sweetsharkrickspencer3: I read that your LibreOffice works again. What did change? Was it the 3.5.0final upload or did you maybe remove ~/.libreoffice to get it working?08:41
rickspencer3Sweetshark, dunno, just did a dist-upgrade on Friday, and it started working after that08:42
rickspencer3Sweetshark, I saw there was a crasher that I had fixed08:42
rickspencer3so I assumed it was that08:42
Sweetsharkrickspencer3: most likely.08:42
ricotzpitti, the lucid amd64 build was smaller by 3gb, so these builder might not -- https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/ppa/+build/323914108:43

didrocksapparenlty sam had a similar one last cycle but forgot to merge it09:10
seb128pitti, so, tell me, how frozen is beta?09:10
seb128pitti, is that worth trying to get the nautilus,zg integration patch from dx in or is that better after beta?09:11
seb128(the patch does register every file copied to zg)09:11

pittiSweetshark: will libreoffice-report-builder realistically come back for precise?09:19
pittiSweetshark: if not, would you mind dropping it from the transitional openoffice.org-report-builder package? (it should just be a "dead" transitional package without dependencies then, to avoid breaking upgrades)09:19
Sweetsharkfor precise -- no it wont.09:21
* Sweetshark adds todo.09:21

=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter
Sweetsharkchrisccoulson: There is the suspicion going on that your latest oneiric firefox update broke LibreOffice! Isnt that a great way to start the week?09:30
seb128is anyone else having alt-tab or issues? like I run gedit from a command line and doing alt-tab once doesn't send me back to it09:31
tjaaltonuh, why oh why was the "switch desktop" shortcut changed. current one doesn't even work right09:34
Sweetsharktjaalton: <flame on>09:35
micahgSweetshark: bug #?09:37
didrocksseb128: just tried, works here09:38
Sweetsharkricotz: btw, are you on the "libreoffice packaging mailing list"? I get multiple questions because people are missing the 3.4.5 update for oneiric in the ppa now.09:38
didrockstjaalton: it's just a keybinding change, I would be surprise for it to not work well09:38
seb128didrocks, ok, I regularly get it, like running dch, alt-tabbing back to the command line and alt-tab goes it my IRC09:38
didrockstjaalton: but for all the keybinding remarks, please ping JohnLea09:38
tjaaltondidrocks: keeping super down brings the shortcut popup in front09:39
seb128tjaalton, or better than ping, please open bugs09:39
didrocksseb128: hum, not fun, need to have a reproducible test case when you get a chance to unerstand what's going on09:39
tjaaltonanyway, was easy to change back..09:39
didrockstjaalton: right, known issue, bug opened even before the upload. It's tricky09:39
seb128didrocks, yeah, I will try to get one, first step was to see if others get the issue as well ;-)09:39
didrockstjaalton: will be fixed by a compiz upload and an unity patch09:39

chrisccoulsonSweetshark, oh, how so?09:40
chrisccoulsongood morning everyone :)09:40
Sweetsharkchrisccoulson: existing firefox profile+firefox update+LibreOffice-3.4.5 => bad (cant open password protected files anymore)09:42
micahgSweetshark: we don't use the system nss/nspr for firefox/thunderbird anymore, so LO shouldn't be affected by updates09:42
didrocksgood morning chrisccoulson :)09:43
Sweetsharkchrisccoulson, micahg: It is not that critical as LibreOffice 3.4.5 is still in proposed.09:43
chrisccoulsonhey didrocks09:43
Sweetsharkmicahg: does system nss maybe still read the profiles (and the updates change/migrate them)?09:43
micahgSweetshark: not sure09:45
Sweetsharkchrisccoulson: on the LibreOffice side, moggi on #libreoffice-dev is doing excellent work on this. But he just went to work, so will be back later maybe.09:45
Sweetsharkmicahg, chrisccoulson: this bug hits debian, ubuntu and gentoo, but it seems fedora/opensuse are spared by it.09:46
ricotzSweetshark, hmm, i guess i am not subscribed then (will do), i removed this package in favour of the official one in oneiric, but i see it is still -proposed09:52
Sweetsharkricotz: yes and bug 873702 hits the builds to oneiric-proposed, but _not_ the ones in the ppa. So people were happily using the ppa and will not be happy with the same version in proposed.09:55

asacwell ... can move all apps to one workspace again09:59
didrocksasac: on the documentation, it's Shift + super + arrowss09:59

asacseems its double occupied09:59
asacin this case it was good :)10:00
asachehe10:00
seb128asac, got to the control center and put it back to what you want and comment on the bug10:00
asacso whats the rational?10:00
asacjust random ergonomics?10:00
seb128there is no point to flood #ubuntu-desktop with it, it's a design,dx decision10:00
asaclike shift+super is in average better to type10:00
didrocksasac: Super is wanted to be the "central point of switching"10:00
seb128asac, I think the basis is that they want to make all the standard keybindings super based10:00
mptSuper based? Like Nick Minaj?10:00
asacif i think about my real keyboard where the super key is like exposited very far outside10:00
asacits not better10:00
mptNicki Minaj, rather10:01
seb128asac, i.e always do super-<something>10:01
seb128mpt, lol10:01
asacdidrocks: well ... making super key the central point of switching is not so nice10:01
asacbecause on my real keyboard its not a central key10:01
didrocksasac: I'm not supportive of the change for the record10:01
asacwell10:01
seb128asac, well as said better to comment on a but, we all basically agree here and the discussion is not very useful10:01
asaci think it makes sense10:01
asacsomewhat10:01
didrocksbut something that you need to convince design on10:01
asacbut only if there were keyboard manufacturers10:01
seb128but->bug10:01
asacthat listened and made ubuntu keys :)10:01
seb128;-)10:02
didrocksI tried for 5 days, didn't get accustomed to it and made my arms feeling pain10:02
seb128asac, maybe it's a first step, make the key actual special10:02
seb128then we can convince them we need an ubuntu logo on it ;-)10:02
asacand then i have to send in my keyboard so they can make it a centrally located key10:02
* didrocks would have been happy with Ctrl + Super on his keyboard TBH10:02
didrocksShift + super is quite painful10:03
asaclet me show you10:03
asacthing is ... the ctrl+alt+cursor doesnt do anything now10:03
asacso it could have been preserved10:03
asacas legacy10:03
Sweetsharkricotz: well, there is nothing in of relevance in ubuntu-toolchain-r for oneiric it seems to me. And we had the same issue waaay back with 3.4.4 -- fine in the ppa, broken in proposed. I dont think there is a broken package in proposed for that long.10:04
didrocksasac: compiz doesn't support multiple key for the same action10:04
Sweetsharkricotz: or is it? hmmmm.10:04
asacdidrocks: thats odd10:06
asacdidrocks: is itusing a key/key hashmap rather than key/value?10:06
asachehe10:06
asacwhy do yuou need a unique way from actkion to key?10:07
didrockstalk to upstream please ;)10:07
* didrocks has already more than 12 hours of work to do today10:07
ricotzSweetshark, building against "gnutls26 - 2.12.11-1" rather than 2.10.5-1ubuntu3 looks like a difference to me10:08

Sweetsharkpitti: ricotz just had an interesting idea about the calc formula l10n bug. unknown to me, the ppa had a dep on the toolchain ppa from ancient natty times. this could be the difference why it does not work in -proposed, but does in the ppa.10:37

xclaessethey always said the correct fix is the undo, it's now done, I reverted the poor workaround11:06
xclaesseas everyone asked on bugzilla11:06
seb128xclaesse, did you get an ack from maintainers? where was it discussed ?11:06
xclaessenot as if they asked to make that in the first place11:06
seb128well "they" are the maintainers, they don't need to ask to do changes to what they maintain...11:07
xclaessethey did it after freeze without approval, in previous cycle11:07
seb128still, it's like random people want and commited to empathy without asking you or another maintainer11:08
seb128that feels weird11:08
seb128let's see if one the maintainers actually complain ;-)11:08
xclaesseI don't think they use nautilus11:08
xclaessethey surely use "rm" to delete a file11:08
xclaesseotherwise they would have found immediately that ctr-del is too dangerous with shift-del just next to it11:09
seb128or they use dnd or the context menu11:09
seb128well anyway I was asking because I looked to the commit to see where it was discussed, i.e bug report or other reference11:10
seb128and I wondered if you meant to commit that to master or rather to another vcs and you screwed up11:10
seb128seems you meant it ;-)11:10
xclaesseI did not discuss it, other than around a beer with fredp :p11:11
xclaessethey won't listen anyway11:11
xclaesseso I just did it11:11
seb128right11:11
xclaesseto see what happens11:11
seb128it's often not the way to get what you want11:11
seb128but let's see11:11
seb128I've the popcorn ready :p11:11
xclaesseseb128, the bug is https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64865811:12
ubot2`Gnome bug 648658 in File and Folder Operations "Change the Ctrl+del key back to Del and use notifications instead" [Enhancement,Resolved: fixed]11:12
xclaesseseb128, what's the rational for changing to shift-super-up/down btw? is that an ubuntu-specific change?11:15
seb128xclaesse, yes, it's ubuntu specific, and I think the rational is to have all the standard keybindings based around the super key11:16
seb128xclaesse, easier for new users, though confusing for old users, we still discuss how to deal with that11:16
seb128xclaesse, it's easy enough to change back in the control center for now while we sort it ouy11:16
xclaesseseb128, hmm, ok...11:17
chrisccoulsonhmmm, i officially hate patches to CSS11:42
seb128chrisccoulson, I though you hated any patches ;-)11:44
chrisccoulsonseb128, i especially hate CSS patches11:45
seb128chrisccoulson, btw do you still plan to look at g-s-d login time this cycle?11:45
chrisccoulsonthe problem with those is that they tend to end up being one huge chunk, which means that a single character change anywhere in the file causes the entire patch to fail to apply11:45
chrisccoulsonwe get that frequently with thunderbird11:45
seb128on my e6410 there is a gap of almost 3 seconds between g-s-d starts and anything else starts11:45
chrisccoulsonand Cimi thinks he's going to be distro-patching changes to the firefox theme11:46

chrisccoulsonhas it regressed on your laptop then?11:46
chrisccoulsoni haven't checked mine recently11:46
seb128not sure11:47
seb128I've this 3 seconds gap11:47
seb128but during that time xorg is busy with a pink color bar11:48
seb128I've a monitors.xml for my config as well11:48
seb128I need to test without a stored config11:48
chrisccoulsonoh, sounds like display probing again ;)11:48
seb128could be11:48
chrisccoulsonthis is a typical css patch btw. is this what glade patches look like too? http://paste.ubuntu.com/859061/11:49

desrtnot 100% sure of the fix, but it makes sense to me and it fixes the problem17:22
DBOdesrt, can you explain the problem in more detail17:40
mhr3desrt, is gdbusproxy thread-safe?17:40
desrtDBO: "run the attached code and observe criticals"17:40
desrtmhr3: i think that doesn't really make sense17:40
desrtthings that fire signals really need to be owned by a single thread17:41
desrtie: the thread that the signals will be delivered to17:41
desrtbeyond that, there are varying degrees of what could be classified as threadsafety.  which one did you have in mind?17:41
mhr3desrt, so using it from a gio thread is not a good idea? :)17:41
desrti'd guess probably not...17:42
desrtlike, it's definitely safe to have multiple proxies in use in different threads at the same time17:42
desrtbut i don't think it makes snese to use a gdbusproxy from a thread other than its 'owner' thread17:43
desrtwhich we actually define in terms of the thread that owns the GMainContext that was the thread-default main context in effect at the time that the gdbusproxy was created17:43
desrt(which for all intents and purposes is the thread in which it was created)17:44
mhr3thought so, just wanted to have a confirmation from people who know for sure :)17:45
DBOdesrt, yeah I think you are right17:46
Trevinhodesrt: I agree :)17:47
mhr3DBO, any idea what would cause bamf to think that my devhelp window isn't on my current workspace even if it is?17:47
TrevinhoActually I've seen that reffing thing since long time, but I'm not sure why DBO put it inside :)17:47
desrtdoes that mean you'll write the tests for me to get it committed? :)17:48
DBOmhr3, do you have latest unity trunk?17:48
mhr3DBO, no, i'm running 5.417:48
DBOTrevinho, the internal reffing?17:48
Trevinhodesrt: do a merge request, and see if you can add to the tests we have inb bamf17:48
DBOTrevinho, the matcher shouldn't be reffing but the factory should17:48
TrevinhoDBO: the reffing on signal... I mean, it's right... But only if it happens on all cases17:49
desrtthe factory is17:49
desrtin a weird roundabout way17:49
Trevinhoyes, the factory of course17:49
desrtit's unclear whether the ref is conceptually owned by the list or the hashtable17:49
desrtin reality it's owned by the hashtable17:49
desrt(because the function that removes it from the hashtable calls unref() on it)17:49
desrtbut it gets reffed as it's added to the list...17:49
DBOdesrt, I simply think of the ref as being owned by the factory, period17:49
Trevinhodesrt: the ref should be both owned by the internal list and the factory hashtable17:49
desrtDBO: sounds good to me :)17:49
Trevinhothe factory's list has no ownership17:49
desrtTrevinho: well.... it gets removed from the list in a weakref handler17:50
desrtso the list can't own a proper ref or it would never be removed17:50
Trevinhodesrt: I mean the cached list of the view (if it's a children)17:50
DBOTrevinho, propose/desrt simply propose a merge17:50

jonodobey, Ctrl-Alt-Arrow?20:30
jonoor Ctrl-Alt-Shift20:31
dobeysomeone decided to change the change workspaces keybinding to be super-shift-arrow20:31
jonointeresting20:31
jonoso I re-mapped it to Ctrl-Alt-Arrow20:31
jonoand Super-Shift-Arrow still works20:31
jonowhich is odd20:31
dobeyjono: C-A-arrow *was* change workspaces, C-A-S-arrow has been "move current window across workspaces" forever20:32
jonodobey, aha20:32
dobeyjono: you probably changed the wrong setting :)20:32
