Riddell | I can give access details to anyone who needs it | 00:58 |
ScottK | Riddell: Comma between "friendly fast" | 01:18 |
Riddell | done | 01:19 |
ScottK | Riddell: I don't think telepathy's on the DVD, I thought it went back to Universe? | 01:20 |
Riddell | right enough | 01:21 |
ScottK | Riddell: It needs the same "OMG, Kittens!" warning about backing up mail that we had for kmail for Oneiric since upgraders from Lucid will be doing the Akanadi transition. | 01:21 |
ScottK | Other than that, I think it's good. | 01:22 |
Riddell | ScottK: is there a bug for that? | 01:23 |
Riddell | probably loads :( | 01:23 |
ScottK | Yeah. Where to start. | 01:24 |
Riddell | ScottK: is there a 1 sentence way to say that? | 01:24 |
Riddell | "backup mail" isn't too helpful without saying how | 01:24 |
ScottK | Sure. | 01:25 |
ScottK | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/OneiricOcelot/Final/Kubuntu/Kmail2 | 01:25 |
ScottK | Needs some Oneiric/Precise, but it's pretty much there. | 01:25 |
Riddell | hum, a job for tomorrow I think | 01:26 |
ScottK | The release note about Kontact 4.7 in http://www.kubuntu.org/news/11.10-release still applies pretty much verbatum. | 01:26 |
Riddell | gotcha | 01:26 |
Riddell | time for me to snooze tonight | 01:26 |
ScottK | 4.7/4.8 and some noises about improved reliabliity from 4.7, but it should still be scary. | 01:26 |
ScottK | OK. Have a good sleep. | 01:26 |
phoenix_firebrd | Will this bug be fixed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/953559 before the release ? | 01:26 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 953559 in grub-installer (Ubuntu) "12.04 install failed to install bootloader using btrfs for root file system" [Medium,New] | 01:26 |
Riddell | nope | 01:26 |
phoenix_firebrd | Riddell: really? | 01:26 |
ScottK | phoenix_firebrd: It's not the default FS and it doesn't fail in all cases. | 01:27 |
ScottK | Did you try it more than once? | 01:27 |
ScottK | (I've done successful btrfs installs this week) | 01:27 |
phoenix_firebrd | ScottK: ya, but i tried btrfs before and like to try it now too. so i will try the workaround | 01:28 |
ScottK | You can also run a live session, manually partition the drive, and then install into the existing partition if the installer won't support it. | 01:31 |
ScottK | I doubt you'll have to do that though. | 01:31 |
phoenix_firebrd | ScottK: ya thats the workaround. Have you tried any btrfs recovery tools | 01:34 |
ScottK | No. | 01:35 |
ScottK | I'm generally very conservative about file systems. | 01:35 |
ScottK | I only installed it on a test install that didn't live more than 5 minutes after it was done. | 01:35 |
phoenix_firebrd | ScottK: can you give me any info about the state of wayland in 12.04 | 01:39 |
ScottK | We have version 0.85. | 01:39 |
ScottK | Beyond that, I don't know. | 01:39 |

jussi | bah, I got to try to get this kmix crash to happen reliably :/ | 07:26 |
Riddell | jussi: does it always happen on track change in amarok? | 07:27 |
jussi | Riddell: no, when using skype | 07:28 |
jussi | Riddell: if youve a min, and have skye, you could call to help test... | 07:28 |
Riddell | I don't I'm afraid | 07:28 |
jussi | ok | 07:28 |
jussi | Ill see if i can get it to happen again and file a bug | 07:29 |
Riddell | jussi: bug 963895 surely | 07:36 |

jussi | its release day and we have a bug like this :/ | 07:37 |
Riddell | yeah, disappointing | 07:37 |
jussi | let me try reproduce here | 07:37 |

Riddell | heisenbug | 07:40 |
Riddell | there's probably a reason why it hasn't been fixed upstream, it's a nasty bug | 07:40 |
Riddell | nasty to pin down | 07:40 |
Riddell | proofreaders needed https://wiki.kubuntu.org/PrecisePangolin/Final/Kubuntu/Kmail2 | 07:48 |
Riddell | shadeslayer: any amd64+mac testing possible? | 07:50 |
micahg | is Kubuntu still not tracking upstream bugs in LP (Project Timelord)? | 07:51 |
Riddell | micahg: right, unless we are especially concerned about them | 07:52 |
micahg | ok, thanks | 07:52 |
jussi | Riddell: "migrated to the new system. This includes contacts from KAddressBook, events from" could read "migrated to the new system, including contacts from KAddressBook, events from " | 07:52 |
jussi | start 2 consecutive sentences with "this" sounds a little funny to my ear | 07:53 |
jussi | other than that, looks good | 07:53 |
agateau | Riddell: in Introduction "for uses upgrading" => "for *users* upgrading" | 08:08 |
agateau | includeing => including | 08:08 |
agateau | perfomed => performed | 08:08 |
Riddell | edited | 08:09 |
agateau | Riddell: in "After Migrating", Update folder and *its* subfolders | 08:11 |
Riddell | votre grammaire est très bonne | 08:12 |
agateau | Riddell: merci mon cher :) | 08:12 |
agateau | Riddell: I believe the "its" vs "it's" mistake may actually be easier to spot for people whose primary language is not english, because the two translates to very different words | 08:14 |
agateau | at least in french | 08:14 |
agateau | same with "you're" vs "your" | 08:14 |
Riddell | doesn't make any sense thought, possessive words should have an apostrophie | 08:15 |
Riddell | but not my mistake, that page is copied from our previous release | 08:15 |
agateau | Riddell: in "Importing Email Manually", I would remove the "and" from "and browse to where you saved ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc": there is another "and" after the next comma | 08:15 |

Hobbsee | cdimage looks trashed, can't grab a torrent file | 12:35 |
Hobbsee | oh, here we go | 12:35 |
GirlyGirl | Hmm all the Ubuntu sites seem problematic and more overloaded than they were for any other release | 12:36 |
* Hobbsee is about ot start torrenting! | 12:36 | |
Hobbsee | how fast can one run through 200gb? | 12:37 |
Mamarok | GirlyGirl: that's normal for LTS releases | 12:37 |
Mamarok | well, we seem to be slashdotted, no way to get that website: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download | 12:51 |
Riddell | Mamarok: keep pressing F5, some mirrors are working | 12:55 |
Riddell | elsewhere: "showing a drupal branded error message on www.ubuntu.com is surely not intended" not just us | 12:55 |
Hobbsee | did they always do that/ | 12:56 |

* Darkwing sighs | 15:51 | |
Mamarok | oh, there are only 64bit apparently | 15:52 |
Darkwing | Mamarok: can you refresh the download page and double check? | 15:57 |
Darkwing | I think I got the torrent links fixed. | 15:57 |
ryanakca | Congrats folks :) | 15:58 |
Darkwing | Can someone double check the torrent links on http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download for me? | 15:58 |
micmord | Darkwing: fixed | 15:59 |
Darkwing | Epic. | 15:59 |
Mamarok | there doesn't seem to be any seed on the alternat 64bit | 15:59 |
Mamarok | and what is amd64+mac.iso? | 16:00 |
Mamarok | that one has seeders | 16:01 |
Darkwing | 64bit mac? | 16:01 |
Darkwing | I always use the desktop dvd for my laptop | 16:01 |
Daskreech | Who's responsible for the release announcement | 16:02 |
Mamarok | well, I download all 3 64bit ones, but I have no seeds on the alternate amd64.iso | 16:02 |
Daskreech | Can they change the links to the torrents? | 16:02 |
Daskreech | they are 404's now | 16:03 |
Mamarok | Daskreech: Darkwing just did | 16:03 |
Mamarok | Daskreech: refresh your browser | 16:03 |
Mamarok | Darkwing: shouldn't that read torrent.ubuntu.com/.. instead of cdimage.ubuntu.com/.. ? | 16:04 |
Daskreech | Mamarok: it's torrent.ubuntu.com here but it's 404 | 16:05 |
Daskreech | http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/desktop/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 16:05 |
Mamarok | yes, and the cdimage.ubuntu.com/.. has nothing to seed | 16:05 |
Daskreech | as opposed to http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/desktop/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 16:05 |
Mamarok | I am talking about the alternate CD, I already am seeding the other 2 64bit ones | 16:06 |
Mamarok | desktop and dvd | 16:06 |
Mamarok | those torrents do work, provided you have the correct link, I edited those manually | 16:07 |
Mamarok | it has to be http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/desktop/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent | 16:07 |
Mamarok | and the links on the website were totally wrong | 16:08 |
Daskreech | The links from the site are http://torrent.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/desktop/kubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 16:08 |
Mamarok | now, yes | 16:08 |
Mamarok | there is a folder missing | 16:08 |
Mamarok | check with mine above | 16:09 |
Daskreech | I know i went manually and grabbed them | 16:09 |
Mamarok | that works | 16:09 |
Daskreech | but that won't be the response of most people | 16:09 |
Mamarok | Darkwing: could you please correct those? | 16:09 |
Darkwing | Yup | 16:09 |
Darkwing | working on it. | 16:09 |
Mamarok | Daskreech: we are currently working on putting the correct links | 16:09 |
Mamarok | guess why I am talking about that | 16:09 |
Daskreech | Mamarok: Cool :) need a proof reader for the release ? | 16:10 |
Mamarok | Daskreech: well, the release is already out, no? | 16:10 |
Mamarok | I didn't write it | 16:10 |
Darkwing | should be. | 16:10 |
Daskreech | ok I'll look it over | 16:11 |
yofel | I'll seed the isos in a bit, I've got desktop/alt/dvd lying around here | 16:11 |
Mamarok | yofel: we need correct torrent links to start with | 16:12 |
Mamarok | the alternate amd64 has nothing to seed, 404 error | 16:12 |
Mamarok | I am already seeding the desktop-amd64 and dvd-amd64 | 16:13 |
yofel | I'll leave that to Darkwing | 16:13 |
Mamarok | how is it even possible to screw up the links that much? Why is there no consistency in the location and where is the iso for the alternate-amd64? | 16:14 |
Daskreech | Ubuntu's overall theme is inconsistency | 16:14 |
Daskreech | ~http://www.kubuntu.org/news/12.04-release has and error under Download A Dik Image | 16:15 |
Daskreech | Disk | 16:15 |
Mamarok | Daskreech: then they should fire the sysadmins and hire people who know their job? | 16:15 |
Daskreech | It has a visible anchor insteead of a link | 16:15 |
Daskreech | Mamarok: somehow it will be the community | 16:15 |
Mamarok | well then congrats community on fucking up a release with wrong links ;) | 16:16 |
Mamarok | so where is the alternate-amd64.iso? | 16:16 |
Mamarok | not where it should be | 16:17 |
arpanpatelia | Here's more: http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download --> torrent files link not working. | 16:17 |
Mamarok | arpanpatelia: guess what we are talking about... | 16:18 |
yofel | Darkwing: fixed thangks | 16:18 |
yofel | er, Daskreech^ | 16:18 |
Darkwing | I just saved the get downloads page... | 16:18 |
yofel | Darkwing: I only edited the announcement | 16:18 |
Mamarok | in which folder is the alternate-amd64.iso? Not where it should be apparently | 16:18 |
Mamarok | so someone who is responsible for the torrent server should hurry up to fix that | 16:19 |
Darkwing | Mamarok: That is Canonical sysadmin. | 16:19 |
Mamarok | Darkwing: that is what I said earlier, they should fire them for incompetence | 16:20 |
Darkwing | I'm a volunteer lol | 16:20 |
Mamarok | Darkwing: to fire them? I would be very good in kicking asses | 16:20 |
Mamarok | even have very pointy shoes | 16:21 |
Darkwing | lol | 16:21 |
yofel | hehehe | 16:21 |
Mamarok | did somebody at least notify them? | 16:22 |
Darkwing | Okay. I pulled the torrent links from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/ | 16:23 |
yofel | the links are ok now here | 16:23 |
Darkwing | yofel: They work now? | 16:25 |
yofel | for me yes | 16:26 |
Mamarok | still nothing to seed for the alternate-amd64.iso | 16:26 |
Daskreech | And now you have happy campers in the #kubuntu chan | 16:27 |
Darkwing | Well, the link has been down... | 16:28 |
Mamarok | wget on the .iso file directly works, the torrent doesn't seed though | 16:28 |
Daskreech | Are there any peers? | 16:29 |
Mamarok | nope | 16:29 |
Daskreech | You should be able to wget the ISO and then seed from that if there are peers | 16:29 |
Daskreech | oh | 16:29 |
Daskreech | The tracker is messed up then? | 16:29 |
Mamarok | yep, that is waht I am talking about the whole time :) | 16:30 |
Mamarok | no peers, no seeds | 16:30 |
yofel | a peer showed up (I have dht on though) | 16:30 |
Daskreech | whats the tracker URL? | 16:30 |
Mamarok | so do I, no peer | 16:30 |
yofel | http://torrent.ubuntu.com:6969/announce | 16:30 |
Mamarok | which gives an error, requested download not authorized for use with this tracker | 16:32 |
Daskreech | That should work. | 16:32 |
Daskreech | Bleah | 16:32 |
Daskreech | Darkwing: Any idea which chan would be in charge of that? | 16:32 |
Mamarok | yofel: you don't get an error on that? | 16:32 |
Mamarok | I use dht as well | 16:33 |
yofel | I do, but rtorrent then just switches to dht:// | 16:33 |
yofel | this *always* happens on releases | 16:33 |
Mamarok | with wget this will take ages | 16:35 |
Darkwing | Daskreech: No... | 16:36 |
Darkwing | Daskreech: I'll work on it | 16:36 |
Mamarok | yofel: so if I want to seed, how do I proceed then? | 16:36 |
yofel | do you have the image yet? if yes I would just wait, if not I would try zsync - that at least uses compression unlike wget | 16:37 |
Mamarok | hm, let me check if that is faster... | 16:38 |
Darkwing | the path to the .torrents is working on the website right? | 16:38 |
yofel | or if it's really not downloadable I'll symlink my images here | 16:39 |
yofel | once I'm done copying them | 16:39 |
tsimpson | wget (at least with the desktop-i386 torrent) seems to work for me | 16:39 |
tsimpson | even if it's slow | 16:39 |
Mamarok | tsimpson: yes, it works, but takes about 90 minutes or so | 16:40 |
nixternal | CONGRATS EVERYONE! great job on yet another amazing release! | 16:42 |
Daskreech | nixternal: I blame you!!! | 16:42 |
Daskreech | nixternal: It does look good though :) | 16:43 |
Daskreech | and more exciting things coming up | 16:43 |
tsimpson | Mamarok: takes me around 30-40 seconds to download the .torrent | 16:43 |
nixternal | you can't blame me, I haven't touched a damn thing in probably 2 years | 16:43 |
Mamarok | tsimpson: you talk about the alternate-amd64.iso I am talking about? | 16:44 |
Daskreech | nixternal: And it's a great release!! :-D | 16:44 |
tsimpson | Mamarok: i tried with the desktop-i386, but the alternate-amd64 one seems to download too | 16:45 |
Darkwing | nixternal: They ar blaming me now instead of you... I want to know how that happened... | 16:45 |
nixternal | they can smell a sucker a mile away, that's how :p | 16:45 |
Mamarok | tsimpson: the torrent? It doesn't have peers | 16:46 |
Darkwing | nixternal: too true | 16:46 |
Darkwing | nixternal: and it's all your fault. | 16:46 |
tsimpson | Mamarok: I just mean the .torrent file, not the actual ISO over bittorrent | 16:46 |
Darkwing | so, the paths to the .torrent files are fixed? | 16:47 |
Mamarok | not for me | 16:47 |
Mamarok | no peers, same tracker error as before | 16:48 |
yofel | just to clear up: tracker broken, links fixed | 16:49 |
tsimpson | I can wget kubuntu-12.04-{alternate,desktop}-{i386,amd64}.iso.torrent fine, just takes a age to connect to cdimage.u.c | 16:49 |
starbuck | whats the difference between dvd and cd? | 16:49 |
Mamarok | tsimpson: I can wget the iso as well, but the torrent needs to work as this is what we link to from the download page | 16:50 |
Mamarok | and it is the only torrent not working, the other 2 amd64 (desktop, dvd) work fine | 16:50 |
tsimpson | starbuck: DVD has extra language packs and extra packages (installable from apt-get), but the installed system is the same | 16:50 |
starbuck | tsimpson: alright, what extra packages is that? | 16:51 |
tsimpson | starbuck: there is a list of the DVD's content at http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/precise/release/kubuntu-12.04-dvd-i386.list | 16:52 |
starbuck | thanks! | 16:54 |
Darkwing | AFK for a bit. If there are any more issues with the website, PM me. | 17:01 |
vorian | congrats peeps! | 17:08 |
ScottK | Darkwing: Dunno. | 18:36 |
Darkwing | ScottK: I think I got it figured out. Thanks mate | 18:38 |
ScottK | OK. | 18:38 |
ScottK | Great. | 18:38 |
BluesKaj | anyone working on kmail segfaults | 18:44 |
ScottK | BluesKaj: Segfaults should be reported upstream to bugs.kde.org. | 18:47 |
ScottK | Whatever they get fixed we'll get with 4.8.3 when it comes. | 18:47 |
BluesKaj | ScottK, i reported 3 so far in the last 2 weeks | 18:54 |
ScottK | OK. | 18:54 |
BluesKaj | these segfaults go back several months ...doesn't look to me like they are being taken very seriously or they bug reports have become overwhelming | 18:56 |

maco | so apparently it's release day | 19:11 |
maco | 10.10 is going EOL huh? crap. will have to reinstall. | 19:12 |
maco | but that's effort, so maybe not | 19:12 |
ScottK | maco: Why have to re-install? | 19:16 |
maco | 16GB SSD | 19:16 |
ScottK | Should be enough for an upgrade if you slim down first. | 19:17 |
maco | 4GB of it is swap | 19:18 |
maco | if i remove dropbox i might get enough space | 19:18 |
maco | but usually just installing security updates requires an "apt-get clean" first | 19:18 |
sreich | who uyses swap? | 19:18 |
ScottK | maco: How much RAM on the box? | 19:19 |
maco | 2GB | 19:19 |
sreich | you poor thing :( | 19:19 |
maco | hmm? max the motherboard can handle | 19:20 |
maco | now, if the motherboard could also handle STAYING POWERED ON....thatd be nice too! | 19:20 |
sreich | pft, that's extra | 19:20 |
maco | (that's the other thing, for all i know, the motherboard will jsut power off in the middle of upgrade. it powers off in the middle of plenty other things...) | 19:20 |
sreich | sounds like time for an upgrade | 19:20 |
=== bulldog98_ is now known as bulldog98 | ||
maco | that computer is 2 years old | 19:21 |
maco | almost | 19:21 |
maco | not quite | 19:21 |
maco | it's been doing that since 3 months after i got it | 19:21 |
maco | P.O.S. netbook cost $700 and does that | 19:21 |
maco | it's the netbook though, so i just use vim as my editor (never lose state) and the SSD means it boots pretty quick, so i can get working again readily enough | 19:22 |
maco | if i want a reliable laptop, i *downgrade* to my 2006 Gateway | 19:23 |
maco | never turns off at random, still has 2 hr battery life just like when i bought it, suspends perfectly, can run on battery... | 19:23 |
maco | zareason doesn't make 'em like gateway used to | 19:23 |
sreich | that sucks | 19:24 |
ScottK | maco: You're unlikely to need more than 2GB swap. | 19:31 |
maco | ScottK: i didnt do the initial install, it's from a linux-preinstalling manufacturer | 19:31 |
ScottK | (if you're going to reinstall, may as well get more space) | 19:31 |
ScottK | OK. | 19:31 |
maco | it's also junk :) | 19:31 |
maco | pretty, but junk | 19:31 |
ScottK | Last time I was looking for a laptop, I looked at Zareason, but they didn't have one quite with quite what I wanted. Perhaps just as well. | 19:32 |
* bulldog98 does a crasy release dance :) (wasn’t around when release happend) | 19:34 | |
maco | we'll see in 6 months whether my friend still loves her ideapad. if so, i might go for them | 19:45 |
maco | (lenovo) | 19:45 |
maco | when i looked at ideapads years ago, they were flimsy, poorly grounded...you could feel the current running through the lid of the laptop. hers seems pretty solid though | 19:46 |
ScottK | The Dell Latitude E series seem to be pretty solid (that's what I ended up with) and Dells always have good support in Ubuntu. | 19:53 |
ScottK | With Dell you do have to be careful as they are hit or miss in terms of robustness with their different lines. | 19:53 |
ScottK | Riddell: While you weren't around, I added one more bug to the known problems as I finally learned enough about how to work around it to have some useful advice. | 20:17 |
ScottK | Riddell: Did you see my earlier comment about the desktop amd64+mac image? | 20:17 |
Ezim | happy kubuntu 12.04 day all of you :). | 20:18 |
Riddell | hi ScottK | 20:34 |
ScottK | Hello Riddell. | 20:34 |
Riddell | ScottK: you think desktop amd64+mac is good enough? | 20:34 |
Riddell | thanks Ezim | 20:34 |
ScottK | Riddell: Yes. With a release note that says don't use the partitioner on that image. | 20:35 |
Riddell | do you know if skeat is still around to confer? | 20:35 |
ScottK | Dunno. | 20:35 |
ScottK | Slangasek is around. | 20:35 |
Ezim | Riddell, thx you. is libreoffice toolbar thing fixed with 12.04? I did forgott to write bugreport about that. | 20:36 |
ScottK | I think it's mostly our call anyway. | 20:36 |
ScottK | Ezim: You mean the thing where it's black text on black background? | 20:36 |
Ezim | ScottK, exaclty. | 20:37 |
ScottK | Ezim: Fixed for me. | 20:37 |
Riddell | ScottK: did shadeslayer do any testing of it? | 20:37 |
ScottK | I see two of the three tests marked pass in the tracker. | 20:37 |
Ezim | schmidtm, nice nice. one more less thing to fix when I make clean installation of kubuntu 12.04.1 :). | 20:37 |
Ezim | mean ScottK and not schmidtm. sorry. | 20:38 |
ScottK | I tested the live session myself on my daughter's mac. | 20:38 |
ScottK | Ezim: You should be able to upgrade fine. | 20:38 |
Ezim | ScottK, I have ppa and other things outside the repo. | 20:38 |
ScottK | Ah. | 20:39 |
Ezim | do not really wanted to mess up my well running kubuntu 11.10/kubuntu-backports | 20:39 |
ScottK | If it's just that PPA, it should upgrade OK. | 20:39 |
Ezim | ScottK, generally yes. but I prefer clean installation. | 20:39 |
Riddell | ScottK: "Akonadi mail filter fails after configuration corrupted" was what you added? | 20:40 |
ScottK | yes. | 20:40 |
Riddell | ScottK: who added "KDM login manager" to release notes? | 20:41 |
ScottK | Not me. | 20:41 |
ScottK | Riddell: That's a carry forward from oneiric. It's still valid. | 20:42 |
ScottK | (so I actually did add it, just not for this release) | 20:42 |
Riddell | it was apw, a kubuntu user I didn't know about | 20:42 |
Riddell | but it does mean the kubuntu.org announce and the release notes wiki page are out of sync | 20:43 |
* Riddell fixes | 20:43 | |
ScottK | Thanks. | 20:43 |
Riddell | ScottK: waiting for slangasek to be free before I ask an opinion on the amd64+mac image | 20:56 |
ScottK | OK. Sounds good. | 20:57 |
grmls | hi | 21:22 |
Riddell | hi grmls | 21:24 |
grmls | hi Riddell | 21:24 |
grmls | i found a bug in 12.04 | 21:25 |
grmls | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-workspace/+bug/989251 | 21:25 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 989251 in kde-workspace (Ubuntu) "kde crashed after moving mouse pointer over the task bar" [Undecided,New] | 21:25 |
grmls | i hope you understand my english | 21:28 |
Riddell | grmls: got a backtrace? | 21:32 |
Riddell | ScottK: amd64+mac desktop image is out and sufficiently caveated I think | 21:33 |
Riddell | ScottK: thanks a lot for your help in the release, good job there | 21:33 |
grmls | sry, no | 21:35 |
ScottK | Riddell: Thanks and you're welcome. | 22:13 |
JontheEchidna | yay, this time around they didn't re-direct #ubuntu+1 to the release party channel | 22:20 |
JontheEchidna | that was super annoying when they did that | 22:20 |
Riddell | hi JontheEchidna, thanks for the last minute fix | 22:20 |
Riddell | thanks to yofel too for similar | 22:20 |
JontheEchidna | Riddell: hi, sorry for the last minute heart-attacks | 22:20 |
JontheEchidna | interesting metric: my blog has received 140 hits from the 12.04 release announcement, with the top three visiting countries being Italy (29), Germany (26), and America (21) | 22:28 |
JontheEchidna | the conclusion is that Italians must love Kubuntu ;-) | 22:30 |
claydoh | Darkwing: pong | 22:33 |
Riddell | download stats from my ec2 mirror http://paste.kde.org/464366/ | 22:34 |
Riddell | desktop-i386 winning by a long way | 22:35 |
ScottK | Do you not have the DVDs there or did no one download them? | 22:37 |
Riddell | ScottK: I didn't put them on that mirror | 22:49 |
Riddell | http://www.davidrevoy.com/article116/kubuntu-12-04-install-notes "My choice stopped again* on Kubuntu , for the 12.04 LTS . Faster, cleaner and polished, I get totally seduced by it." his wife must be getting jelous of us :) | 22:52 |
nixternal | distro_info.DistroDataOutdated: Distribution data outdated <- anyone with an idea of why I am getting that with pbuilder-precise let me know | 23:37 |
nixternal | it worked a few days ago | 23:37 |
Riddell | nixternal: something to do with the release I'd guess | 23:39 |
nixternal | yeah, trying to trace where it is getting the distribution data and how to patch it so it isn't outdated | 23:40 |
nixternal | yup. pbuilder --create precise works, but not -dist | 23:42 |
ScottK | nixternal: Get the distro-info-data from -proposed | 23:43 |
ScottK | (and see my rant earlier today on #ubuntu-motu if you want to know how I feel about this brain dead design) | 23:43 |
nixternal | haha | 23:44 |
nixternal | heh, thinking about sbuild? i used to use that years ago. are there any advantages to it these days? | 23:46 |
nixternal | jeesh, alot of stuff in proposed already | 23:46 |
ScottK | We've been putting stuf in -proposed since ~Monday. | 23:47 |
ScottK | The launchpad buildd's us an sbuild variant so if you're using sbuild, it's closer to what'll happen after you upload. | 23:48 |
ScottK | I didn't look much into it yet though. | 23:48 |
nixternal | iirc i don't remember being able to ever tell a difference back then when i used it. i think then i was playing with the distributed building stuff, and maybe that is why i tried out sbuild | 23:50 |
nixternal | can't remember though | 23:50 |
nixternal | man, i think deciding to do a 'sudo lb build' today was a bad idea | 23:51 |
