| GH0 | Alright, I am having more issues. Getting really ticked off. Right now, when I log in, I am presented with a graphic on the background and can right click and get the right-click menu, but I have no taskbar and no plasma widgets. | 03:58 |
| GH0 | This is immediately after performing apt-get update & apt-get upgrade | 03:58 |
| GH0 | Either Kubuntu is fucking with me, or something is wrong. This is the fourth time I have had to remove one of the updates for me to have a functioning desktop. The problem is I don't know what update is causing it. Restarting kdm service, deleting my .kde folder, none of that is helping. | 04:01 |
| Daskreech | GH0: Easy with the language. What did you do? | 04:01 |
| GH0 | Installed Kubuntu, ran sudo apt-get update, then ran sudo apt-get upgrade. Restarted and now I am left with a semi-functioning desktop that only responds to left click. | 04:01 |
| Daskreech | Well it doesn't normally respond to right click :) | 04:02 |
| Daskreech | On Left click do you get add new panel ? | 04:02 |
| GH0 | Yes, and when I add a new panel, the graphics look screwed up. | 04:03 |
| Daskreech | Is there a better explanation of screwed up? | 04:03 |
| GH0 | It looks like the panel is artifacting. That is the best explanation that I can give you right now besides taking a picture. | 04:04 |
| GH0 | Actually, I can't take a picture as my phone is dead | 04:05 |
| dskreech | GH0: Sorry. Something killed my connection | 04:13 |

| GH0 | dskreech, yes, after letting it sit for twenty minutes everything magically begin to work. | 04:24 |
| dskreech | GH0: Hooray I guess? | 04:24 |
| GH0 | Though, I think I may be fit with the problem of the hostname not broadcasting or responding to other machines. | 04:24 |
| dskreech | Tried testing it? | 04:24 |
| dskreech | faitdarkness: Hello | 04:25 |
| GH0 | Yeah: Ping request could not find host server. Please check the name and try again. | 04:27 |
| GH0 | Right now, I have a 127.0.0.1 localhost and 127.0.1.1 server | 04:27 |
| GH0 | I have googled this problem, but the resolutions that have been put forth are run your own dns server (which I intend on doing, but the setup/guide that is given out is for domain groups) or add an entry to your hosts file which isn't feasible because I have guests that access this server. | 04:28 |
| lanc3r | whats your problem GH0? | 04:29 |
| GH0 | when I attempt to access my server by it's hostname on the network, it isn't responsive. If I access it by it's ip address, it works fine. | 04:29 |
| lanc3r | Apachae? | 04:30 |
| GH0 | No, just the server itself. "ping server" or vnc'ing into server:1, samba (which I know I can set in the config for), etc. | 04:30 |
| GH0 | I do have apache installed though, yes. | 04:31 |
| lanc3r | i dont know man, the only server experience i have is hosting a few games. | 04:32 |
| dskreech | Well you need the DNS entry then | 04:35 |
| GH0 | Yes, but in past installs, the entry prepopulates everything. I will try restarting my router and all other boxes tomorrow and see if that fixes the problme. Right now it is juyst time for me to chill out and go to sleep. I need to unwind | 04:39 |

| sunder | why is acmkdir (part of autotools) not in apt? | 14:59 |
| tsimpson | what is "acmkdir" supposed to do? | 14:59 |
| sunder | setup a new project structure for c/c++ | 15:00 |
| sunder | its part of gnu autotoolset | 15:00 |
| sunder | well, its part of it if you go to their sourceforge project | 15:01 |
| sunder | but if i pull up autotoolset in Muon, it is not in that package | 15:01 |
| sunder | and its not its own stand alone package either | 15:01 |
| sunder | i dont understand why, google is of little help | 15:01 |
| sunder | nvm, looks like i need to use autoproject instead (im guessing) | 15:06 |
| tsimpson | sunder: autotoolset is not a GNU project (though it's under the GNU GPL) | 15:08 |
| tsimpson | so it's just not packaged in Debian and subsequently Ubuntu | 15:08 |
| sunder | hmm, what does it mean to be a GNU project then? are there *no* non-gnu packages in debian? | 15:09 |
| sunder | you mean autotoolset as a whole (autoconf, automake, etc) is not a gnu project, but the individual components can be? | 15:11 |
| tsimpson | no, a GNU project is a project created and maintained by GNU. I just meant that it's not part of the GNU autotools project, which is a standard way to configure things | 15:11 |
| tsimpson | autoconf and automake are not part of autotoolset, it's part of autotools | 15:11 |
| sunder | i guess i see | 15:12 |
| sunder | i found autoproject, it appears that does what acmkdir does | 15:12 |

| BluesKaj | yofel, yeah cmake doesn't work on 12.04 .... it says the compiler is in the wrong location , even tho it's in the right path | 21:05 |
| yofel | BluesKaj: can you remove the contents of the build folder (i.e. the cmake cache) and try again? | 21:06 |
| yofel | I can build konversation fine here | 21:06 |
| BluesKaj | from git ? | 21:06 |
| BluesKaj | dep-build just installs 1.4 | 21:07 |
| yofel | BluesKaj: "sudo apt-get build-dep konversation" -> mkdir build -> cd build -> cmake .. -> http://paste.kde.org/457634 | 21:10 |
| yofel | and that's konversation from git | 21:10 |
| yofel | the apt command is to install the build-dependencies | 21:11 |

| Daskreech | I don't think I could survive them being too much in sync | 21:12 |
| Daskreech | FOSS is ridiculously sad | 21:12 |
| amichair | yofel: it looks like the bug is just the order of options in the gui combobox. reordering the combo according to the options (Never last instead of first) would work no? | 21:14 |
| yofel | amichair: maybe, I didn't look at the code long enough - I'll try to get a fix in that just shifts the index by 1mod3 | 21:17 |
| amichair | yofel: the additional bug is that when u run do-release-upgrade, or at least the man page or help, should say something about that settings and how it affects behavior | 21:17 |
| yofel | the GTK UI uses a dbus api now which works, but that's something for 12.10 | 21:17 |
| yofel | amichair: feel free to file a bug about that | 21:18 |
| amichair | yofel: I thought it would be simpler to just reorder the combo items in main.ui, or more straightforward at least | 21:18 |
| amichair | yofel: but... whatever works :-) | 21:19 |
| BluesKaj | yofel the tutorial I was following was incorrect for 12.04...compiling with make now | 21:23 |
| yofel | amichair: could be, I'll have to ask mvo though what an effect that'll have overall | 21:23 |
| BluesKaj | yeah Daskreech , i have too much time on my hands , so i get bored sometimes | 21:24 |
| BluesKaj | bbiab | 21:26 |
| Ezim | Daskreech, kubuntu 11.10 with kde 4.8.2 have been solid for me | 21:31 |
| Ezim | nothing of really importance bugs me | 21:31 |

| Daskreech | Ezim: Which is why FOSS is interesting You can never update if you don't want to or ride on code streaming from the developers keyboards | 21:34 |
| Ezim | Daskreech, true. | 21:35 |

| randomDude | my system tray panel widget is refusing to collapse its width to an acceptable width ( the width of its visible child icons ) | 22:16 |
| randomDude | each time i add it to the pane, it some times takes up half the screen width with only five items in it... resulting in massive sections of blank space... screen is 1920x1680 | 22:17 |

| amichair | I ran kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade, when installing packages X died and I re-logged in, now apt-get install -f says "Internal Error, No file name for libapt-pkg4.12" - how do I fix this? | 22:54 |
| Daskreech | apt-cache policy libapt-pkg | 22:55 |
| amichair | Daskreech: N: Unable to locate package libapt-pkg | 22:56 |
| tsimpson | amichair: try just running the updater tool again and maybe it'll just resume | 22:56 |
| amichair | tsimpson: the updater says there's nothing to upgrade (since it thinks it already did, I guess) | 22:57 |
| tsimpson | oh, you should trick it by editing a couple of files | 22:57 |
| tsimpson | let me just remember which | 22:57 |
| amichair | tsimpson: and that will fix the broken packages better than apt-get? doesn't it use it internaly anyway? | 22:58 |
| tsimpson | it should do, because it does a better job of upgrading than just apt-get | 22:58 |
| tsimpson | that's why it was invented ;) | 22:58 |
| amichair | oh, I thought at this point it's just running apt-get dist-upgrade | 22:59 |
| tsimpson | amichair: in /etc/lsb-release change "DISTRIB_CODENAME" to oneiric, then just make sure your sources.list and files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ are all pointing to oneiric or disabled. then run the updater | 23:00 |
| Daskreech | tsimpson: /etc/lsb_release? :) | 23:04 |
| tsimpson | yeah, that one | 23:04 |
| Daskreech | Bah did't hit pagedown | 23:04 |
| Daskreech | :) | 23:04 |
| tsimpson | change the other values as well, I'm not sure if I change one or all the last time the updater failed | 23:04 |
| tsimpson | and maybe /etc/issue{,.net} | 23:05 |
| Daskreech | Breaking on a apt package isn't great bythe way | 23:05 |
| Daskreech | I had apt uninstalled once | 23:05 |
| Daskreech | was't fun | 23:05 |
| amichair | tsimpson: did all that and ran the updater, and it gives an error message saying there are broken packages that it can't handle and need to be fixed using apt-get | 23:08 |
| tsimpson | ooh, that's not so good | 23:09 |
| Daskreech | can yu pastebin the error ? | 23:11 |
| tsimpson | I haven't seen a completely broken apt/dpkg system in a while | 23:11 |
| Daskreech | I have v_V | 23:12 |
| Daskreech | patience is a tricky jump for a grashopper who jumps too quickly | 23:13 |
| amichair | Daskreech: the do-release-upgrade error? I closed it already... it was in the gui, and just said in user-friendly english that some packages are broken and that they need to be fixed first using apt-get (or synaptic), no details | 23:14 |
| Daskreech | amichair: run it from the terminal then | 23:15 |
| tsimpson | use "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" in the terminal | 23:16 |
| tsimpson | so it doesn't use the gui method | 23:16 |

| amichair | ok, I set things back to precise, and ran apt-get -f dist-upgrade, and it seems to be doing something | 23:20 |
| amichair | let's see what happens... | 23:20 |
| Daskreech | well amichair went poof | 23:22 |
| Daskreech | and back! :) | 23:22 |
| amichair | yeah, the wireless drivers suck (when booting into windows on this laptop, wireless works great, but here it gets disconnected every few minutes and takes its time reconnecting... really annoying) | 23:23 |
| amichair | I'm running apt-get -f dist-upgrade, and it seems to be downloading a bunch of stuff | 23:24 |
| amichair | darn it, back to the error: E: Internal Error, No file name for libapt-pkg4.12 | 23:28 |
| Daskreech | OK that's a sign resolution of the packages is running at least | 23:28 |
| amichair | apt-cache policy libapt-pkg4.12 says: Installed: 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu8 | 23:33 |
| amichair | Daskreech: any idea what to do? | 23:35 |
| Daskreech | amichair: pastebin the whole policy output | 23:42 |
| amichair | Daskreech: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/931861/ | 23:43 |
| amichair | and http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/931864/ | 23:44 |
