* Riddell fires up an ec2 to get into the packaging mood07:47
Daskreechha ha :)07:50
DaskreechNothing like spare cycles for that07:50
Riddellyofel, shadeslayer: I'm doing some 4.8.2 packaging, if you want to work on it let me know and I'll update the wiki page08:23
Riddellyofel: how about using notes.kde.org instead of wiki.k.o for packaging?  I find myself not wanting to update the wiki because it's too slow09:24
yofelwell, sounds good, the wiki is getting on my nerves as well09:26
Riddellyofel: http://notes.kde.org/kubuntu-ninjas09:40
=== Riddell changed the topic of #kubuntu-devel to: Kubuntu: Friendly Splash Screen Testers Needed | Precise: Beta 2 Released - Bug hunting: http://ur1.ca/8kam4 | http://ur1.ca/8kamo TODOs! |http://www.kubuntu.org/news/12.04-lts-announce |wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/UDSQSeries | Milestoned beasties http://goo.gl/9iyUD | KDE SC 4.8.2: http://notes.kde.org/kubuntu-ninjas | KDE Telepathy 0.3.1 to package
Riddellneeds lots of tidying up, that's just copy and paste, I'll sort it and the wiki page out to be nicer in a bit09:40
yofellibdebconf-kde 0.2 is out10:03
afiestas_cp: cannot stat `debian/tmp/usr/lib/kde4/webaccounts.so': No such file or directory10:13
afiestas_dh_install: cp -a debian/tmp/usr/lib/kde4/webaccounts.so debian/webaccounts//usr/lib/kde4/ returned exit code 110:13
afiestas_I'm getting that error when creating a package, the thing compiles just fine, even install well in debian/webaccounts folder10:14
afiestas_but all the time during the creation of the package debian/tmp folder is empty10:14
afiestas_any tip?10:14
afiestas_even more, it is never created :/10:15
debfxafiestas_: is it a source package with only one binary package?10:15
afiestas_debfx: yes10:16
debfxthen it's common that the files are installed directly to debian/<pkgname>10:16
afiestas_and why it is trying to copy anything from /tmp ?10:17
afiestas_http://paste.kde.org/450956/ (control file)10:17
=== ghostcube__ is now known as ghostcube
debfxpresumably you have an install file10:18
afiestas_http://paste.kde.org/450962/10:19
debfxright, either delete the install files or tell dh_auto_install to install files into debian/tmp10:21
afiestas_debfx: thanks !10:24

* shadeslayer looks into packaging11:55
shadeslayeruhh we don't have qyoto packages ? 0.o12:01
Riddellshadeslayer: no alas not12:04
shadeslayerbut whai?12:04
RiddellI don't know of any users of those bindings so there's no motivation to redo them12:05
shadeslayerno one bothered?12:05
shadeslayerhmmm ... fair enough12:05
RiddellI was the first person to package them for any distro but when kdebindings split out they never got re-done12:05
RiddellI'd love to have them, makes me feel improper to miss out an upstream package12:05
Riddellbut upstream don't even know if they want to maintain them any more for Qt 512:06
shadeslayerunderstandable ... I'm not sure they're even used12:06
Riddellno they're not, who wants to use c# ? (except miguel)12:07
shadeslayerheh12:08
shadeslayerI also managed to forget how to use bzr builddeb it seems12:08
Riddellthat can be used so many different ways it's not surprising you forget them12:09
Riddellshadeslayer: are you doing 4.8.2 ?12:09
shadeslayeryes12:09
Riddellcos I am too12:09
yofelif you wonder about them ask Quintasan, he tried to package them and gave up12:10
Riddellhang on them, I need to update the page12:10
shadeslayeroh, are you updating the notes.kde.org link?12:10
* Riddell updates it now12:10
shadeslayerQuintasan is probably busy with exams and stuff12:10
yofelno, I mean he gave up on them back a year ago12:11
yofelthey're a mess12:11
Riddellshadeslayer: updated, you're good on rocs I havn't touched it12:11
yofelbbl12:14

apacheloggerRiddell: when is the next freeze?12:15
* Riddell prescribes irn bru to apachelogger 12:15
apachelogger<312:15
Riddellapachelogger: kernel freeze on friday! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule?action=show&redirect=PreciseReleaseSchedule12:15
Riddellwatch out for that one KDE packagers!12:16
Riddellfinal freeze on april 12th https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/PreciseReleaseSchedule12:16
apachelogger^^12:16
Riddellthere's some e-mails I need to read discussing the details of how that'll happen12:16
shadeslayerheh12:16
QuintasanYeah, shadeslayer and yofel are both right12:17
QuintasanWe are talking about qyoto, aren't we?12:17
shadeslayerQuintasan: not just qyoto12:17
shadeslayerall them bindings12:17
apacheloggerI think I'll defer splash screen to a day where my head is not feeling like a water bomb12:17
apacheloggerunless yofel finds the time to package the splash background12:18
RiddellI think that's a hint for yofel :)12:18
QuintasanRiddell: qyoto, when I last looked at it, was a hell of a package and not even the foo masters in #debian-qt-kde had a clear idea of how to do it12:18
QuintasanOr I was asking wrong people for tips12:18
Riddellapachelogger: have lots of water and go for a nice walk, computers and migraines are unlikely to be a good combination12:18
apacheloggerRiddell: yah, though I'd rather get the splash stuff done12:19
apachelogger:(12:19
RiddellQuintasan: yes I had to go to the c# team in debian for expertese when I did it years ago but there's no pressing need to get it done so we should concentrate on the things we do have need of12:19
QuintasanRiddell: Mmkay, I might tackle on them next cycle and when I am after exam12:19
QuintasanLast month of doing anything.12:20
apacheloggeryofel: if you find the time ... I would simply remove the install of the default theme from workspace and instead make a new package kde-splash-theme-ariya containing the preview/theme.rc and the 800x600 version which is installed to the plymouth kubuntu-logo themedir and symlinked to the splash location12:21
apacheloggerthen an additional -extra package to contain the other resolutions12:21
apacheloggerthen we basically just need to upload kds and the new splashes are in12:22
apacheloggerif you don't find the time I'll do it tomorrow or sometime or something12:22
RiddellQuintasan: by next cycle we'll be on qt 5 and it'll be a non issue (well I can dream)12:23
QuintasanRiddell: That's one problem less :P12:23
apacheloggerRiddell: oh, I do believe that some C# person should maintain that package really12:24
apacheloggercompletely impossible for a person without the knowledge to do it right12:24
Riddellapachelogger: might be an idea, the debian c# team did want to look after it back in the day and I did say it would be better under the debian qt/kde team but maybe I was wrong12:24
BluesKajHiyas all12:25
apacheloggerRiddell: now that it is a split tar it should be fine12:25
apacheloggerRiddell: we'll just need to give them a poke when a new version gets released I suppose12:25
apacheloggeranyhow12:25
apachelogger-> out12:25

shadeslayer( for packaging )14:03
shadeslayerksecrets?14:03
Riddellshadeslayer: I'm working on the last ones14:03
Riddellksecrets is broken, don't package it14:03
Riddell(I've packages in experimental PPA)14:03
shadeslayerok, in that case we're done I think14:03
Riddellno we're not!14:03
Riddellneeds testing14:03
Riddellthen needs oneiric packages14:03
Riddellif we can remember what changes were needed for oneiric last time as can just do those in batch and throw them up14:04
shadeslayerright, I'll have to leave the laptop on the entire night to test :P14:04
Riddellor work out how to get vnc working with ec2 ?14:04
peacefixed BluesKaj14:05
shadeslayeruhh ... hmm can't you use X over ssh?14:05
shadeslayerI remember seeing a option to do that14:05
peaceBluesKaj: the user test was already present on the old kubuntu 12.04 test installation :D14:05
shadeslayeryup, you can14:05
BluesKajuser test, peace?14:06
Riddellshadeslayer: yes but it's too slow14:07
RiddellVNC is designed for the job much better but I've never used it really14:07
peaceBluesKaj: i have 2 partitions , the old one had a user called test 14:08
peaceBluesKaj: when i have installed the new 12.04 again in the second partition i used again test like user14:08
peaceusername14:08
BluesKajpeace, ok14:08
peacebtw the error was not clear14:09
peacefor me 14:09
shadeslayerRiddell: you probably have a faster connection for VNC really, I'm on a measly 512 Kbps right now14:15
Riddellshadeslayer: probably but I've no idea how to use it as I say :)14:15
* shadeslayer goes off to check why tp-qt4 FTBFS's14:16
* Riddell is due to get a fibre optic connection tomorrow, then I'll be only half the speed of jussi!14:16
* BluesKaj has access to fibre optic connection , but the cable co won't install it without mandatory basic cable tv service , which I don't want or need14:22
shadeslayerI'll probably switch to a better plan sometime this month ( 12Mbps up/down for the first 25 GB's, 1 Mbps afterwards )14:26
=== Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
BluesKajoops , I was wrong, they advertise stand alone 40mbs for $64/mos plus $5/for modem rental , that's a bit pricey 14:31
BluesKaj100GB max per month14:32
shadeslayerThat's reasonable, even apachelogger won't be able to hit that limit with his prn and Doctor Who14:33
shadeslayerwheee .. tarball respins14:35
BluesKajshadeslayer,  I doubt that those speeds are ever realized. Internet providers always fuge their DL speeds based on unrealistic no traffic situations 14:36
BluesKajerr fudge14:37
Riddellshadeslayer: you're on kde-packager right?  can you check we have the latest of everything?14:37
shadeslayeryep, I'm kind of hard time figuring how my ISP plans to provide 12 Mbps over ADSL2+14:37
shadeslayerRiddell: sure will do14:37
Riddellshadeslayer: I have 16Mbps over ADSL2+ now14:38
shadeslayer0.o14:38
Riddellit just depends on the distance to the exchange14:38
Riddelland tomorrow I'll get ADSL2+ to an exchange at the end of my road which it's claimed will be 40Mbps14:39
shadeslayeraha, ADSL2 has a theoretical max of 8 Mbps14:39
shadeslayerADSL2+ can go between 12 and 24 Mbps14:39
BluesKajRiddell,  what kind of price ?14:39
shadeslayer40Mbps ... what the hell are you people trying to do? Setup a data center?14:40
RiddellBluesKaj: for fibre?  £36/month + phone line at £12 a month14:40
Riddellshadeslayer: talk to jussi 14:40
BluesKajRiddell,  not bad , seems about the same as here 14:40
Riddellhe has about 100Mbps and he's out in rural area near the north pole14:41
shadeslayer@_@14:41
shadeslayerClearly I should relocate14:41
Riddellflat above is for sale, only £155,000 to become my neighbour, then you can borrow my wifi signal :)14:42
peacebtw icontask is not installed  after sudo apt-get install plasma-widget-*14:42
BluesKajRiddell, , shadeslayer , yes but you know how electrons move much faster in cold media 14:42
shadeslayerhehe14:42
shadeslayerRiddell: sure, once I win the lottery :P14:42
Riddelloh that's easy to do, I have about £10,000 coming from the lottery next month14:43
Riddellthe trick to winning the lottery is not to play (that's just a tax on stupidity) but to apply for grants for your poor deprived sports club (my social duty to put the stupid people's money to good use)14:43
jussimeh, I moved and dont have such great connection anymore.14:44
Riddelljussi: what you only have 50Mbps?14:44
jussinah, its 3rd world standard now14:44
BluesKajRiddell,  well, ask lottery winners if they're stupid )14:44
jussi2Mbps14:44
jussiBluesKaj: have you ever seen what a lottery winner spends it on? 14:45
BluesKajI'm sorta in the boonies so i'm stuck with 800kbs14:45
Riddelljussi: gosh really?  did you move across the border to russia?14:46
BluesKajyeah , my neigbour won a million in cancer research lottery and he moved around the cornet to a slight bigger and nicer house , but he's doing well, still working etc14:46
shadeslayerThere's too much money in the world ...14:47
Riddellso he's happy to take money from cancer research?  that's not just stupid, that's mean14:47
Riddellshadeslayer: try telling that to my neighbour Fred Goodwin14:47
* shadeslayer doesn't know who that is14:48
Riddellused to run the world's biggest bank14:48
shadeslayer"Goodwin's knighthood, awarded in 2004 for "services to banking", was "cancelled and annulled" on 1 February 2012."14:48
Riddellthen it went bust, he still has a stupidly large house and got a nice payoff from the government14:48
shadeslayerheh14:48
BluesKajwell, his wife passed away from cancer ...better him the the sam artists who adminster that thst so called research org ...here about 80% of the money collected never reeaches the researchers14:49

Riddellshadeslayer: can you close that dialogue?16:17
Riddellbecause I can't, the click is like I'm holding down alt so itjust moves the window16:17
Riddellyeah you have the same thing16:17
Riddella weird bug somewhere16:17
shadeslayeryeah same thing16:17
Riddellk-menu opens on click but I can't select anything in it16:18
shadeslayeroh there we go16:18
Riddellshadeslayer: what did you do?16:18
shadeslayernot sure what I did differently16:18
shadeslayerI just kept on clicking16:18
shadeslayer:P16:18
Riddellshadeslayer: can you launch something from the k-menu?16:19
Riddellwell done!16:19
shadeslayeryeah16:19
shadeslayer:D16:19
Riddellshadeslayer: any idea how to get alt-f2 krunner to work without doing the local one on your system?16:19
* shadeslayer tries16:20
shadeslayerRiddell: see "Grab Keys" at the top?16:20
shadeslayershouldn't that grab inputs?16:21
Riddellshadeslayer: I would think so but it doesn't help16:22
shadeslayerweird16:22
Riddellwell with k-menu somehow working that's not an issue16:23
shadeslayerplus I have custom keybindings for krunner, which is why pressing alt+f2 doesn't bring it up on my local machine16:23

rohanRiddellhello channel!16:24
rohanRiddellthis vnc thing is uber nifty!16:25
shadeslayerwait which dialogue?16:25
rohanRiddellbut only if rohan stops stealing the mouse16:25
rohanRiddelllol16:25
Riddellshadeslayer: who said anything about a dialogue?16:25
shadeslayerO_O16:26
shadeslayerI must be see'ing things16:26
rohanRiddellhow come it captures normal keystrokes16:26
rohanRiddellbut not alt+F216:26
RiddellrohanRiddell: I've no idea16:27
Riddellanyhoo, this is 4.8.2, is it working?16:27
Riddellcan we sign off on the testing?16:27
shadeslayerI guess16:28
shadeslayerok I've gtg for dinner, will come back for kde-workspace16:28
Riddellbon appetit16:28
BluesKajRiddell,  4.8.2 works here , a few small crashes here and there 16:29
Riddellkontact working in 4.8.2 for my e-mail!16:38
shadeslayerargh16:41
shadeslayerbzr want's my ssh keys :/16:41
shadeslayerPermission denied (publickey).16:41
Riddellin launchpad?16:42
* shadeslayer just dgets kde-workspace16:42
shadeslayerRiddell: on the ec216:42
Riddelloh you can copy your keys but make sure I don't have access when you do16:42
Riddellmake sure to kick me and my key off it (without removing yours)16:42
* shadeslayer is not too confident copying his private key anywhere except his laptop and his backup drive16:43
Riddellyou can use debsign for signing things remotely but I've not found a way to do bzr+ssh remotely like that16:44
shadeslayeryeah, trying to think how to do ths16:44
shadeslayer*thuis16:44
shadeslayerarg16:44
shadeslayercan't I checkout without having to authenticate?16:45
Riddellshadeslayer: sure16:45
shadeslayerhow?16:45
Riddellbzr co lp:thing should just work with http if it needs to16:45
shadeslayerdoesn't16:46
Riddellbut that's not different from just apt-get source from the PPA if they're in sync16:46
shadeslayerhmm16:46
shadeslayerI'll just apt-get source it then16:47
tsimpsonlp: is a "shortcut" to use the bzr+ssh:// URLs, you need to just get the http URL16:49
Riddellit's a bit more than that I'm pretty sure, it falls back to http but I think only for bzr branch not checkout16:50
shadeslayerRiddell: can you shut down that ec217:07
shadeslayerI checked out the bzr branch using --lightweight17:08
shadeslayeror should I just sudo halt it?17:08

yofelbtw. I did some work on that package bug filing script https://gist.github.com/2243256 - works overall, just the description is *short*17:32
shadeslayerhmm .. strigi is FTBFS17:35
* shadeslayer fixes17:35
jussishadeslayer: can you make akonadi ftbfs.... permanently? :P :P17:36
shadeslayerjussi: sure, but that means you won't get any fixes/improvements that upstream releases17:36
yofelnah, strigi is enough17:36
shadeslayerthe easiest way to ftbfs something is to remove cmake :P17:37
jussibwaahahahha17:37
yofelyou can probably work around that :P17:37
shadeslayerprobably ... :)17:38
shadeslayerwrite makefiles by hand? :D17:38
jussishadeslayer: yeah, we will make you do it :P17:38
jussibwahahahahahahhahahah!17:39
* shadeslayer runs away17:39
=== fabo__ is now known as fabo
DWonderlyWe could get nixternal to do it.17:53
yofelthat would mean it would really be FTBFS permanently17:55
RiddellDWonderly: to do which?17:56
DWonderlyRiddell: Write makefiles. :D17:57
yofelhe could go to MoDaX for questions. He wrote the makefile for qtscriptgenerator17:58
mgraesslinany neon experts around?18:08
yofelmgraesslin: hm?18:09
mgraesslinyofel: would it be possible to have KDE defaults in neon?18:09
mgraesslininstead of kubuntu-default-settings18:09
yofeltheoretically  yes, I would need to patch KDE to ignore /etc/kde4rc18:10
mgraesslinthat would be very useful if we want users to point to neon to perform 4.9 testing18:10
yofelI'll note that down, but can't give a promise until when it's done18:11
mgraesslinand another thing: would it be possible to create a daily VM image based on neon?18:11
shadeslayermgraesslin: we discussed that iirc18:11
yofelshadeslayer: you looked at that, didn't you?18:11
shadeslayerbut there was no conclusive proof that people would actually want that18:11
shadeslayeryofel: yes18:11
mgraesslinwe will never know if nobody tries it18:12
shadeslayerPlus, we'd need a cdimage server to host that stuff and a resources to build a image every day/week18:12
shadeslayerI made a poll and all iirc18:13
yofelwell, at least some dedicated server for that, my server can't handle that18:13
shadeslayeryep ^18:14
mgraesslinmaybe kde-sysadmins could help18:14
mgraesslinthat would be a real advantage in my opinion for beta testing18:14
shadeslayerI never quite figured out how to use Google Docs to make forms, so here's a text only version : http://paste.kde.org/451382/18:15
shadeslayerspecifically, last question18:15
mgraesslinI guess there are many KDE users who would love to have daily packages but are not using Kubuntu18:16
Riddella VM image and/or an ec2 image for neon would be uber cool18:16
shadeslayeryep, but I don't have a shred of knowledge how RPM packaging works ....18:16
Riddellbut I don't know where to start on it18:17
shadeslayerso we need people who have a expertise in that area to expand Neon to SuSE/Fedora/Redhat18:17
yofelhm, a VM image would be doable18:17
mgraesslinshadeslayer: exactly, that's why a VM would be great for all those OpenSUSE users18:17
mgraesslinand maybe they start to love Kubuntu :-)18:17
Riddellmgraesslin: slap it on wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/UDSQSeries18:18
shadeslayeryofel: lets hatch a conspiracy to convert all them SuSE people to Kubuntu18:18
yofelshadeslayer: +1 :D18:18
shadeslayermgraesslin: thanks for the evil plan18:18
mgraesslin:-)18:18
shadeslayeryeah, sounds right, Discuss at UDS, implement before/during akademy18:19
mgraesslinpersonally I have a VM and have thought about updating it myself and spend some money to host on Amazon S318:19
jussiscrew suse, lets get the rest of the users (windows, mac etc)18:19
shadeslayerjussi: then we have too many users18:20
Riddelljussi: good point, we shouldn't aim to hurt suse, they're our friends18:20
jussishadeslayer: hah!18:20
* shadeslayer is always afraid that we'll get too many users18:20
shadeslayerthen instead of developing stuff we'll be stuck answering support questions :P18:20
jussiRiddell: yeah, our crazy, strange friends, but we still like them18:20
mgraesslinshadeslayer: we would completely fail everywhere if our userbase would double tomorrow18:21
jussishadeslayer: meh, its kubuntu, people dont need support :P18:21
shadeslayermgraesslin: exactly18:21
* mgraesslin still wants the bugtracker to be closed for exactly THAT reason18:21
shadeslayerI'd see at the very least a 100 bug reports bashing nepomuk18:21
yofelmgraesslin: lol, just be happy we require accounts unlike debian ^^18:22
shadeslayermgraesslin: I think it should be partially closed with people earning 'points' for reporting a bug that is later on confirmed18:22
yofelthen again, they require mails18:22
shadeslayerand then they can report more bugs18:22
shadeslayerthe more points you have, the more bugs you can report18:22
mgraesslinthe wiki doesn't like me :-(18:22
shadeslayerthe wiki doesn't like anyone18:22
yofelmgraesslin: if you get a 500, use wiki.ubuntu.com18:22
mgraesslinI cannot log in18:23
yofelthe redirect is somewhat broken18:23
yofelah, that's moin moin then, that doesn't like anyone18:23
mgraesslinfinally18:26
shadeslayerbtw I'm building strigi on the armboxen if no one is working on them18:31
shadeslayerkde-workspace updated as well18:32
shadeslayerwth18:41
shadeslayerbunzip2: I/O or other error, bailing out.  Possible reason follows.18:41

Riddellhttp://blogs.kde.org/node/4558  "Ubuntu and VNC on EC2"18:55
Riddellshadeslayer: what's that from?18:55
ScottKRiddell: FYI, won't work if desktop effects are enabled. It's probably not an issue in this case.19:07
RiddellScottK: VNC?  you mean locally or on the ec2 server?19:15
Tm_T2211.59 < new2net> excellent work on Kubuntu, as advertised, it just works. Keep it up19:16
danttiRiddell: hey, how much do you pay by month on that ec2?19:37
Riddelldantti: with my credit card then canonical refunds me when I expense it at the end of the month19:39
Riddelloh how much19:39
Riddelldepends on the month19:39
Riddella bill just came in, let me look19:40
Riddelldantti: $26.21 in March http://starsky.19inch.net/~jr/tmp/aws.pdf19:42
Riddellbut it varies a lot depend on what we happen to use that month19:42
Riddellif I forget to terminate an 8CPU machine overnight then it costs a lot more :)19:43
ScottKRiddell: On the remote system (in this case the EC2)19:43
danttiRiddell: right, well wehn I was searching for a server the one that seemed more atractive was from 1and1, it's more expensive but the value is fixed which don't gives you surprise in the end..19:44
danttiRiddell: it might be a better choice for you since it's a dedicated server with VM cpu capabilities..19:45
RiddellScottK: hmm kwin is usually very good at turning that off if it can't handle it, in this case I didn't notice any issue19:46
dantti$59 btw, an AMD opteron 2.4, with 2gb of ram, my father in law hired another one paying 69, which is 2.6ghz and 4gb of ram, check that out if you see the bill/use growing..19:46
Riddelldantti: oh I don't think it's very good if you need it online 24/7 for a e.g. a web server19:46
Riddelldantti: it's only good if you need a server for a random hour or three19:46
danttiRiddell: yes, I was afraid of the bill at the end of the month..19:47
Riddell$57 a month for their cheap EC2 server19:47
ScottKOK.  A friend of mine who's mother runs Ubuntu was complaining he had trouble VNCing into his mother's computer for troubleshooting now.19:48
Riddellbut that's not what cloud is for, it's for being able to expand easily so if you find your server overloaded you can fire up a dozen more no problem19:48
RiddellScottK: without knowning the issue I would instinctively blame Ubuntu's compositing and suggest using Kubuntu :)19:49
ScottKRiddell: I have done that.19:56
=== jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna

JontheEchidna^re: the topic change, ximion's uploaded debconf-kde 0.2 & we're awaiting a sync request22:40
ximionas soon as it is publicly accessible on Debian, I'll file the request22:42
JontheEchidnathanks :)22:42
JontheEchidna(I changed the topic so nobody would go ahead and duplicate the already-done packaging work) :P22:42
ximionhehe :)22:43
ximionthanks :)22:43
ximionI hate it when people do duplicate work22:43
ximion(and I also dislike Ubuntu deltas on my packages - there are options to upstream Ubuntu changes easily, in most cases)22:44
ximionthe pkg will be public in a few hours, the build servers already catched it :)22:44
ximionoh sh*22:46
ximionthe symbols file has issues in i38622:46
Riddelllovely, thanks ximion 22:58
Riddellyofel: ok if I upload 4.8.2 to precise?23:21
yofeldid you upload sweeper and superkaramba to the ppa? you've marked them as done, but I only see 4.8.1 in apt23:22
yofelhm, no, not in PPA23:24
yofelotherwise go ahead23:24
Riddellhum23:26
Riddellyofel: can you remember what changed needed to be made for oneiric in 4.8.1?23:32
yofelI'm not sure if there's anything left that needs changes23:34
Riddellyeah I don't see anything in ninjas from 4.8.123:34
yofelark was adjusted in precise and backports fine, and kde-workspace can be backported fine too since 4.8.123:35
Riddellyofel: ok I'll throw it into ~kubuntu-ppa/backports for oneiric23:36
yofeluh wait23:36
yofelrather build in ninjas or staging and copy later23:36
yofelnot all users actually check what dist-upgrade does before running it, and just uploading everything results in quite a few build failures that need to be retried23:37
Riddellgood point23:37
Riddellfabo: seen "In Qt 4.8.0 and 4.8.1 there is a crash bug" ?23:38
Riddell"patch to qt 4.8 required for Calligra"23:38
