ScottKbrestows: Packaging (which is most of what we do) only requires a basic knowledge of shell and make to get started, so yes.13:34
brestowsScottK: Where can I start from?13:36
ScottKbrestows: I think what we need now is people to help with testing KDE 4.8.1 on precise.  Do you have a machine running precise (or a vm)?13:37
brestowsScottK: hame a machine13:38
brestows*have13:38
ScottKAlso there are tons of bugs on launchpad that need people to review them, see if they are still applicable, and forward them to bugs.kde.org if they are about upstream code and not packaging.  I think yofel_ has been working on that.13:38
BluesKajScottK,  precise here but i haven't added the ppa if there is one 13:38
ScottKbrestows: OK.  And you're willing to risk breakage?13:38
BluesKajfor 4.8.113:38
SpecialistHi there, I was just sent here from #kubuntu as apt-get refuses to upgrade my stock Kubuntu Oneiric installation with KDE 4.7.4 to KDE 4.8.0 from the backports PPA with the following error message:13:38
SpecialistE: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'kjots'. Please see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details. (2)13:38
ScottKRiddell: brestows and BluesKaj would test 4.8.1.13:39
ScottKSpecialist: can you pastebin a bit more of the upgrade log.13:39
SpecialistDoes someone have an idea what might be the culprit or where to continue looking for the roor cause?13:39
SpecialistScottK: Do you mean the console output?13:40
ScottKYes13:40
SpecialistScottK: Sure: http://pastebin.com/rCLYikec13:41
brestowsScottK: no problem :)  think I can fix the13:41
ScottKbrestows: OK.  Riddell was looking for 4.8.1 testers a little bit ago, let's wait to hear from him.13:42
brestowsScottK: ok. will wait 13:43
BluesKajScottK,  what errors / breakage can we expect from 4.8.1, any idea ? The reason I ask is my test machine is down for the count ...mobo problems I think , so I have only one pc atm 13:45
Riddellit's in ninjas13:45
Riddellgo testing13:45
ScottKBluesKaj: Since it's just a point release, in theory it should be OK, but they call it testing for a reason.13:45
ScottKRiddell: brestows is new, he'll need help.13:46
BluesKajScottK,  understood 13:47
ScottKSpecialist: Do you have the kdepim or kdepim-dev packages installed?13:49
SpecialistScottK: kdepim is installed (4:4.7.4+git111222-0ubuntu0.1), kdepim-dev isn't13:50
ScottKSpecialist: OK.  Try removing kdepim (it's just a metapackage) and upgrading again.13:51
SpecialistScottK: Unfortunately, same error message. Is the (2) an error code? That would mean "File not found", right?13:52
ScottKSpecialist: Not in this case.  How about kdepim-dbg, or kjots-dbg, or kjots-dbgsym?13:53
SpecialistRemoving kdepim-dbg did the trick.13:54
ScottKIf you don't have any of those or removing them doesn't solve it, I'd try removing kjots, doing the upgrade, and installing it again.13:54
ScottKAh.  Very good.13:54
ScottKYou can put it and kdepim back after the upgrade if you want.  Should be fine.13:54
SpecialistScottK: Excellent, thanks for your help!13:55
ScottKYou're welcome.13:55

yofelRiddell: can do, I usually do that last though20:05
Riddellyofel: yeah last is normal way I do it too20:07
bulldog98yofel: do you want to run that script or should I already start with it?20:10
yofelbulldog98: well, that needs to be run per-package, and either you do it and I continue after you or I do it alone - because I don't update the wiki20:11
yofelupdating that takes longer than the backporting20:11
bulldog98yofel: then just do it :)20:11

sheytan_apachelogger: ping20:23
apacheloggerpogo20:24
sheytan_apachelogger: how about create an app, that will make an image of your entire HDD and save it to a single file. Then with this we could add an option to the installer that will allow to reinstall your OS from taht image?20:25
sheytan_this app could have a fancy UI20:25
sheytan_simple and easy to use20:25
=== sheytan_ is now known as sheytan
* apachelogger still doesn't have boot splash sutff20:26
apacheloggernixternal: also still not answer regarding my question about boot splash stuff20:26
apacheloggeralso I am tired20:26
* sheytan waits for visions. Can't create lots of stuff at once :)20:26
apacheloggersheytan: that image stuff, yes, but what for?20:27
sheytanapachelogger: imagine you breake your OS during upgrade20:27
apacheloggerhow would you go about that? :P20:27
apacheloggeralso... where would you store that image?20:28
sheytanexternal hdd, dvd20:28
apacheloggeras it would have to contain /home/ it would be quite large20:28
ScottKshadeslayer and Riddell: From my glance at the build logs (still going) it looks like digikam is using a bundled copy of kipi-plugins.20:28
apacheloggerso dvd is pretty much a no-go20:28
ScottKCloud20:28
sheytanthis could be a backup like app20:28
apacheloggersheytan: oh well, report a bug somehwere or something20:29
sheytanfor what?20:29
apacheloggerI do not see the immediate benefit to be very big as an upgrade should not be breaking an install and if it does it would be a bug that needs tending to20:29
apacheloggersheytan: ubiquity I suppose20:29
apachelogger(the installer thing)20:29
apacheloggeralso it is not entirely simple to do anyway with multiple partitions and what not20:30
sheytani didn't say it will happen, but as you might know it does. Especially for begginers20:30
apacheloggermulti month project IMHO20:30
sheytanit was just an idea :P20:30
sheytani'm now thinking about new features for the installer20:31
apacheloggersheytan: it still shouldn't and if it does because the beginners broke their system before the upgrade hence breaking the upgrade the restoration image would still be broken and could restoring from it could still break at any given point in time20:31
apachelogger(xorg-edgers PPA is good at causing trouble there....)20:31
sheytanlet just leave that topic. Do you have any idea about a feature for the installer? :D20:32
apacheloggersheytan: I am not saying the idea is bad, I am just not convinced it makes all that much sense20:32
sheytandetails can be discussed :)20:32
apacheloggerit would if we needed a shitload of drivers post-installation like windows or something20:32
apacheloggeri.e. something that hardware vendors like to do (store the factory image on a separate partiton)20:32
apacheloggersheytan: I do have a many great ideas, none of them being simple ;)20:33
apacheloggeralso the installer needs redoing code-wise20:33
sheytanlike what? :D20:33
apacheloggerit is a big mess IMHO20:33
apacheloggerneeds some code structure and whatnot20:33
apacheloggerso we should break it some time after release20:33
apacheloggergiven someone is willing to do it and stuff 20:33
* sheytan wishes to mockup whole new installer. Also wishes that someone will code that :)20:33
apacheloggerwell, if you feel particularly visionary you can mock20:34
apacheloggeralso check back with nuno on input20:34
apacheloggerat any hand the installer will need some love soon20:34
sheytansure20:34
apacheloggerit is pratically unmaintained for at least 3 releases, so that thing will not remain working forever20:34
sheytani want a whole new UI20:35
sheytanthat will mach plymouth20:35
sheytanthan splash20:35
sheytankdm20:35
sheytanor ldm20:35
apacheloggerthen you totally want to coordinate with master nuno20:35
sheytandoes nuno do some artwork for Kubuntu i don't know about?20:36
apacheloggerno20:36
apacheloggerbut kubuntu artwork = kde artwork20:36
apacheloggerso to change kubuntu artwork one needs to change kde artwork20:36
sheytanplymouth doesn't seem to be kde artwork :)20:36
apacheloggerit will be soon20:36
apacheloggeronce nixternal cares to answer me questions, so I can free except it and whatnot20:37
sheytanwell, anyway i still think that setting kde defaul wall as  a background everywhere is not good idea20:37
ScottKshadeslayer, Riddell: http://paste.debian.net/158699/20:37
sheytanapachelogger: i want to create plymouth theme mockup as simple  as possible20:37
apacheloggersheytan: that is not what I am suggesting, but plymouth should be inline with kdm/lightdm and ksplash20:37
sheytanit won't hurt any eyes20:37
apacheloggerwhere the 3 of them are consistent to plasma is a whole nother business20:38
sheytannot neseserly20:38
sheytani mean plymouth don't need a kdm/splash background i.e20:38
apacheloggerI do believe it has to be at least the same with ksplash20:39
apacheloggerthey are both splashing20:39
apacheloggerincidentially enough if you have your DM on autologin the transition from plymouth to ksplash should be close to unnoticable20:39
sheytanthe whole idea about splash is  not good. It would be way better if when you hit enter after you type password, a simple spin animation should apper somwhere. After that you got your desktop20:40
sheytani w ill soon create the complete mockup so you will see what i mean20:41
apacheloggerclose to impossible20:41
sheytana mockup is better than a thousand words20:42
apacheloggerthat is: one would need to redo the way a desktop session is launched20:42
apacheloggervery well20:42
sheytancan you add to ldm or kdm an aniation that will smoothly display an background image after plymouth?20:43
apacheloggerI suppose so20:44
sheytanimagine a simple gray plymouth background, after that, the current kdm background (stripes) fades in from bottom right to top left20:44
sheytana swipe animation20:44
apacheloggernot sure if it is possible though20:44
apacheloggerit wouldn't be easy though20:44
yofelScottK: yes, kipi-plugins come bundled with Digikam SC these days20:45
apacheloggerbasically plymouth should hand over the VT it was drawing on to lightdm, so *I suppose* lightdm would be able to grab the current state of the framebuffer (that is the last frame painted by plymouth) and then run an animation on that20:45
sheytanand after you hit enter, the stripes swipe from top left to bottom right (inversly). After that splash starts with a simple animation20:45
apacheloggerfrom that description just now it should have become clear that this is probably not the easiest thing to do, if at all possible :)20:45
apacheloggerthat stripe thing is entirely possible20:46
apacheloggerwhether that smoothly transits to ksplash is a different story though20:46
sheytanlet my try to do this anim. now20:46
apachelogger(basically whenver you transit from one component to another getting it done smoothly is a right hassle)20:46
apacheloggergetting it not to go black or flicker is already quite the challenge :)20:47
ScottKyofel: Should be fixed to use the system copy.20:47
yofelScottK: which system copy?20:48
yofellast time I checked there were no seperate kipi-plugins releases anymore20:49
ScottKOK.20:49
ScottKSo it seems.20:49
ScottKSo there's just libkipi now.20:50

apacheloggersheytan: considering lightdm can use qml ... considering the case of ariya we could have the stripes fold on enter and unfold on leaving21:20
Peace-well i used the kubuntu logo right now21:20
sheytanapachelogger: sure we can. As i said, that's just a simpla animation shwoing what i have on mind21:20
apacheloggersheytan: i.e. plymouth would have a constant background of the right most stripe, then when lightdm comes up we simply qml animate the right most stripe coming in from the bottom, moving on until it reached final position21:21
apacheloggersame for all the uper stripes21:21
sheytanPeace-: quite nice :)21:21
apacheloggerwhen login was successful we simply roll back the effect21:21
Peace-btw aseigo has said i can put on it even the audio sheytan21:21
apacheloggerof course that still doesn't clear what should be done to whatever "window" we had for the login box etc.21:21
Peace-but for now i was not be abble21:21
apacheloggerbut that would be an approach for the background21:21
sheytanapachelogger: remember my ldm mock?21:22
apacheloggerplus a similar thing could be applied to all former default wallpapers21:22
Peace-apachelogger: the default background just sucks 21:22
apacheloggerin that they all had visual elements that can have animated appearance21:22
Peace-for me is really bad21:22
apacheloggerPeace-: matter of opinion21:22
apacheloggersheytan: yus21:22
Peace-yep21:22
ScottKAs long as there are sharks and laser beams, I'm happy.21:23
apacheloggersheytan: though if you have the latest version still that would be good, cause I'd have to search somewhere21:23
sheytanapachelogger: so we just change the background to mach your animation21:23
apacheloggerthough I dunno where that somewhere is ^^21:23
sheytanwait21:23
* sheytan used to write a blog sometime ago21:23
apacheloggersheytan: the background doesn't need changing, we simply wouldn't have one pixmap grafik but a whole set of them, with qml we then animate them into the actual background21:23

sheytanapachelogger: that a  good idea too21:24
apacheloggeragateau: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UhquGKi5SdU/TfP1QoDROmI/AAAAAAAAB38/5wHUthdSIMQ/s1600/mockup.jpg get cracking ;)21:24
sheytani already saw agateu's work on ldm, but couldn't install it to test21:24
apacheloggersheytan: as said though, that doesn't deal with the login box etc.21:25
Peace-apachelogger: good 21:25
apacheloggeralso the entire thing should not be taking longer than 0.5 sec or it will be too long, so plenty of tricky parts there still21:25
apacheloggerthough the animation itself should be jolly straight forward21:25
apacheloggeras it is not particularly fancy21:25
sheytanapachelogger: for my  ldm there's only one animation. If you  click on your user (avatar), the other ones fades a bit, your  picture slides from the list down, box  for pass  appears and session button. It will take no longer then 0.5s couse this will all happen same time21:26
apacheloggeryes, what I am saying is that appear/disappear animations alltogether must not be longer than 0.5 sec21:27
apacheloggeryour's probably should be even shorter, though that probably simply needs trying21:28
