| cweber10 | bkerensa; i think we made a monster in the good way Winny is getting everyone in her group to do a bug :p | 00:13 |
|---|---|---|
| Windipity | Haha, How did you know that? | 00:17 |
| cweber10 | Windipity: i said in a good way :p | 00:19 |
| cweber10 | o/ Lacy | 00:21 |
| lcollins07 | Hey at least spell my name right | 00:21 |
| cweber10 | what me spell right you have to be kidding | 00:22 |
| lcollins07 | haha guess I should have known better lol | 00:23 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: the BTS is being generally slow for me it seems :) | 00:23 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: (my forward didn't show up on the bug yet either) | 00:23 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: yeah but its now been two hours :) | 00:29 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Im not very optimistic about this bug anyways because now Debian wants me to forward it further upstream | 00:29 |
| bkerensa | :( | 00:29 |
| Windipity | Eddie found a bug that seems to be a comment, maybe good for the wishlist. How do we take care of it? Bug #196874 | 00:29 |
| lubotu1 | Launchpad bug 196874 in xscorch (Ubuntu) "Modified .desktop for easier use with submenus" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/196874 | 00:29 |
| bkerensa | Widipity: You might ask someone on #ubuntu-bugs to look at it who is on the control team so they can wishlist it. | 00:31 |
| bkerensa | I dont have bug-control privileges yet because I have not resubmitted my app to bdmurray and co | 00:32 |
| Windipity | Thank you, I will forward that information on. | 00:32 |
| bdmurray | One thing to do would be to check if the .desktop file for xscorch has changed at all | 00:33 |
| bdmurray | Windipity: ^ | 00:33 |
| bdmurray | an easy way to do this is by clicking on "Code" | 00:34 |
| bdmurray | on the bug page | 00:34 |
| Windipity | bdmurray: Sure thing, I'll look at that right now. Thanks! | 00:34 |
| bdmurray | then look at the precise bzr branch | 00:34 |
| bdmurray | click around enough and you'll end up here | 00:35 |
| bdmurray | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/xscorch/precise/view/head:/debian/xscorch.desktop | 00:35 |
| bdmurray | oh neat, lucky us | 00:35 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Unfortunately I'm feeling like seeing this Ubuntu bug through and I will try to deal with the gmane folks then perhaps debian can grab it then ubuntu and so on | 00:36 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 00:36 |
| bdmurray | Windipity: ^ | 00:36 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: How do I submit a patch to gmane? I git cloned their repo and made the changes but I have no idea how to proceed from here since I'm unfamiliar with how they accept patches or maybe I can use git to propose my fix? | 00:40 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: I don't think it's necessary to submit a patch at ths point given that it's going all the way upstream; the upstream maintainer will regenerate the translation files automatically | 00:42 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Well someone from the debian group that manages git specifically invited me to submit to gmane | 00:43 |
| bkerensa | lol | 00:43 |
| bkerensa | :( | 00:43 |
| slangasek | gmane, btw, is simply an interface to Usenet + mailing lists | 00:43 |
| bkerensa | http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/192289 | 00:44 |
| slangasek | I think it can be used for posting to the Usenet newsgroups, but I don't know how - I've never used it | 00:44 |
| bkerensa | :( | 00:44 |
| bkerensa | ok | 00:44 |
| slangasek | jrnieder said "let's take this upstream", then he did - I don't know that it's worth you putting any more work into preparing a patch :) | 00:45 |
| bkerensa | Benjamin, the git-gui code can be found at | 00:46 |
| bkerensa | <git://repo.or.cz/git-gui.git>, in case you want to tackle it. | 00:46 |
| bkerensa | Thanks and hope that helps, | 00:46 |
| bkerensa | Jonathan | 00:46 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: why does 'git format-patch --stdout > git-gui-typo-fix.patch' not create a patch from the git repo I cloned | 01:03 |
| bkerensa | and made a fix in | 01:03 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: because git's UI was designed by a madman and a misanthrope? :) | 01:04 |
| bkerensa | :( | 01:04 |
| slangasek | have you committed your changes to the git branch? | 01:04 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Yes I ran git commit -m "Fixed Typos in Translation Files" | 01:04 |
| bkerensa | and it showed the changes | 01:05 |
| slangasek | ok | 01:05 |
| slangasek | then you need to run 'git format-patch HEAD^ --stdout > git-gui-typo-fix.patch' | 01:05 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Great success :P | 01:06 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Now might you suggest a way to submit the generated patch? | 01:06 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: unless there's an email address that gateways to that gmane group, I have no idea | 01:10 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: Yeah I have it it seems they want me to send the patch inline to a address @kernel.org | 01:11 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 01:11 |
| bkerensa | specifically git@vger.kernel.org | 01:11 |
| slangasek | right, that's plausible | 01:12 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: I submitted but they said something about MUA settings? | 01:30 |
| bkerensa | http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/923255/focus=192295 | 01:30 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: well, he's correct that the message shows double-spaced | 01:31 |
| slangasek | I have no idea why | 01:32 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: and he is asking me also to delete the from from values and improve the subject line? | 01:33 |
| slangasek | don't look at me :) | 01:33 |
| bkerensa | lol | 01:33 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: These are your debian folk :P | 01:34 |
| slangasek | no, they aren't | 01:34 |
| slangasek | that's someone replying to a post on the git upstream list | 01:34 |
| bkerensa | ahh | 01:38 |
| nathwill | oh man... is it naptime yet? what a day. | 01:50 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: never again | 01:53 |
| bkerensa | :( | 01:53 |
| nathwill | bkerensa: never again what? stay up til 3am the night before an event? | 01:53 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: the patch submitting process for that far upstream is nearly.... its not fun | 01:54 |
| bkerensa | :( | 01:54 |
| slangasek | agreed | 01:54 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: never submit a patch that far up | 01:54 |
| slangasek | that's why I make the Debian maintainer do it | 01:54 |
| slangasek | ;) | 01:54 |
| nathwill | i'm working on one with the gedit devs | 01:54 |
| nathwill | it's hilarious | 01:54 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: I have had three people reply with little tidbits of how they want the patch to look | 01:54 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: gedit doesnt go to lists that linus posts on | 01:54 |
| bkerensa | :( | 01:54 |
| nathwill | lolz | 01:55 |
| bkerensa | and apparently he posted on this list yesterday | 01:55 |
| nathwill | dude, bkerensa, gnome is the same | 01:55 |
| nathwill | https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671244 | 01:55 |
| lubotu1 | Gnome bug 671244 in general "Add support for freedesktop.org "Desktop Action"" [Normal,Unconfirmed] | 01:55 |
| nathwill | and i can't argue with anything they suggest. | 01:55 |
| nathwill | they're right on, this is just hilarious | 01:55 |
| bkerensa | oh you had fun with sebsebseb | 01:55 |
| bkerensa | :D | 01:55 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/192299 | 01:56 |
| bkerensa | :( | 01:57 |
| bkerensa | but if you look up in the main tree of that mailing list you can see I got bombed with critiques | 01:57 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 01:57 |
| nathwill | haha | 01:57 |
| bkerensa | why no "git propose" | 01:57 |
| bkerensa | or something the equiv of merge proposals in ubuntu | 01:58 |
| nathwill | everybody's got their own workflow... from what i can tell you pretty much have to do a thorough review of the history before having a clue how to propose something they'll accept | 01:59 |
| nathwill | lesson learned | 01:59 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: btw Sebastien Bacher (seb) is a ubuntu dev | 01:59 |
| nathwill | oh cool | 02:08 |
| nathwill | i also got a crazy letter from some dude in Ubuntu Developers something or other asking about my "experience contributing to Ubuntu" | 02:08 |
| nathwill | honestly, the fact that they even bother asking that question is my favorite thing about the experience | 02:08 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: Daniel Holbach? :P Oh you must have come up on our list of 1st timers | 02:09 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 02:09 |
| nathwill | i r a wirgin | 02:09 |
| nathwill | and i think it was andrewsomething | 02:10 |
| nathwill | anyways, workaday is over | 02:10 |
| nathwill | headed out. | 02:10 |
| nathwill | have a good night :) | 02:10 |
| bkerensa | kk | 02:10 |
