=== Resistance is now known as EvilResistance [00:33] Salutation. [00:34] greetings [00:34] how's things :p [00:34] blargh.... [00:34] heh [00:36] Pretty good here :) [00:36] trying to find homes for some of the bugs with no package assignments. o.O Ther's some ridiculous stuff in here. [00:37] wylde: link me to an example [00:37] or two [00:37] * EvilResistance may try and find where they belong [00:37] alrighty, moment [00:37] i have one , which i filed myself .. [00:37] !bug #995185 [00:37] Launchpad bug 995185 in gnome-settings-daemon "Multimedia keys are disabled" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/995185 [00:37] s1: no need for using !bug [00:38] Okay. [00:38] bug #994827 .... that one I don't think is a bug really, but I have no idea what to do with it. [00:38] Launchpad bug 994827 in ubuntu "ubuntu-bug gives up too easily" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/994827 [00:38] s1: are you sure this is a bug, or just a request for support? [00:39] I think i got confused somewhere .. [00:39] oooh, here's one for you bug #993684 [00:39] Launchpad bug 993684 in ubuntu "I'm trying to "update" ubuntu, I want to prove if my losten grub appears" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/993684 [00:39] or assigned against the wrong package ! [00:40] wylde: that one seems like it should be invalid [00:41] s1: are you asking for support, or filing that there is a bug in the program? [00:41] if you're asking for support, a bug won't help you [00:41] if you're showing that a bug exists in the program, then it might [00:42] EvilResistance: I really don't know. [00:43] I just found this trubleshooting steps .. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting [00:43] s1: i read your "bug report" and its not a bug report in this instanfce [00:43] i've marked it as invalid [00:43] and posted a comment pointing you towards where you could get support [00:44] EvilResistance: Thank you. [00:44] (at least that's my opinion, if another bug squad member thinks otherwise, they're free to change it) [00:45] wylde: bug 993684 might be a not-a-bug instance, but its hard to tell [00:45] Launchpad bug 993684 in ubuntu "I'm trying to "update" ubuntu, I want to prove if my losten grub appears" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/993684 [00:45] now, this one was never assigned to a package, although a quick scan of the comments sound like it was resolved ( should have been a support request I think). [00:45] wylde: might post to the bug squad mailing list if you want :/ [00:46] EvilResistance: yeah, I set it to invalid, if the reporter feels the need to challenge that then I'm good wih it, might get more info out of him anyway. [00:46] wylde: that's what i'd do :P [00:47] lol [00:47] I'm just being a little over cautious, my first day trying to triage I managed to get spanked twice >.< [00:47] wylde: :P [00:48] wylde: i'm relatively new too, bnut i recommend you follow the triage guide like its law [00:48] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage in case you havent got the link [00:48] i always keep that link up while i'm working on bugs :P [00:48] EvilResistance: yep, I have it. There's just some of these reports you just can't compare to it. You know? [00:48] and when i'm unsure about whether it needs triaging i come here, ask bugsquad members' opinions, and poke bugcontrol members here when its worth it [00:48] wylde: mhm [00:49] * EvilResistance had one of those a few days ago [00:50] (and so far, the ones i've pointed out for triaging have been valid for triaging) [00:50] EvilResistance: last week or the week before I had a reporter trying to add me their google+ lol [00:51] wylde: and this is why i dont have google+ or public facebooks :P [00:51] EvilResistance: I don't use it, I do use 1 of my gmail addresses for here though. [00:51] :P [00:54] wylde: that ubuntu-bug one goes against apport i think [00:54] apt-file shows ubuntu-bug as part of apport [00:54] oh this one, bug #992906 I ran across while looking for minor document bugs to fix. I moved it Unity. [00:54] Launchpad bug 992906 in unity "Log out, power off icon(applet) not present on desk top" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/992906 [00:54] actually i'm not sure now [00:54] yeah I think it is. [00:55] * EvilResistance shurgs [00:55] shrugs* [00:56] yeah I'll go with that, it's better than no package assignment [00:56] dont bother yet [00:56] * EvilResistance is checking with someone [00:56] ok [00:56] it may even be an "opinion" [00:56] * EvilResistance is checking with the MOTUs for which package its against [00:56] but it should be OPinjion [00:57] i'll poke a bugcontrol person in a minute [00:57] lol alrighty [00:58] ah ubuntu-bug is in apport [00:58] which bug was that one again? [00:58] that one about ubuntu-bug [00:58] sec [00:58] was it this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/994827 [00:58] Launchpad bug 994827 in ubuntu "ubuntu-bug gives up too easily" [Undecided,New] [00:59] yep [01:00] brb needs me MOAR COFFEE! ...and to get out of this chair for a minute >.> [01:00] its set to 'opinion', but its open to be changed, if its not an opinion-type :P [01:00] That bug might indeed be a bug. I think it's the wording that sucks. [01:01] Daekdroom: its against apport, that much I know [01:02] but that wording suggests opinion, not bug [01:02] if it *is* a bug, details need to be added [01:02] * EvilResistance set it to Opinion, but believes it may be a bug, ignoring the wording [01:02] they don't specify which version of Ubuntu they're on, so if it was fixed later, we'll never know [01:03] feel free to change it as you see fit, though :) [01:03] * EvilResistance values constructive criticism as it is needed === EvilResistance is now known as Resistance [01:03] oh, fooey. [01:03] stupid ZNC changing my nick randomly >.> [01:03] * Resistance reminds himself to fix his autochange nicks script [01:04] its supposed to go once every 6 hours, not every hour :/ [01:07] Daekdroom: if you can suggest what the bug *should* say, we could invalidate bug 994827 and file a more technical bug, or recommend to the OP they do that [01:07] Launchpad bug 994827 in ubuntu "ubuntu-bug gives up too easily" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/994827 [01:07] (OP = Original Poster) [01:27] lol alrighty [01:29] It does seem odd that it would even have an "other" option if it's going to demand a package be specified anyway. The "other" option should be removed, but only the dev can say if that's intended behavior or not :P [01:30] other should return that it may not be a bug [01:30] ahhh true that. Possibly suggest a support channel or ubuntu-brainstorm [01:30] mhm [01:34] uhhhh Bug #995697 <----- support question? Someone should also point out WEP even with 128bit "encryption" is like locking your front door with scotch tape >.< [01:34] Launchpad bug 995697 in ubuntu "WEP security with passphrase broken" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/995697 [01:34] wylde: i'll propose that possible change to apport, but that'd be a feature request bug, so it wouldnt necessarily need a brainstorm topic (although this needed it: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/29656/ ) [01:34] whats this one now? [01:34] wireless wep issue [01:35] wylde, why not warn people to prefer whatever is safer over WEP? [01:35] wpa-supplicant I suppose. [01:35] I should dig into that a bit and file a wishlist on Launchpad :P [01:35] Daekdroom: yep, what I was getting at. :) [01:36] Daekdroom: that's a support request, but not a bug report, really [01:36] Resistance, the bug mentioned above? [01:37] Or suggesting that the network applet warn people to use some sort of encryption over others? [01:37] Daekdroom: IMO, yes, there *is* a way to fix WEP in 12.04, but its not a bug with any question [01:37] the bug [01:37] not the feature request [01:37] i agree with the feature request [01:37] the bug that was reported is a support request, not a bug report [01:37] Indeed it is [01:38] indeed it is a support request? [01:38] i marked it as invalid as such, since it's not a bug, but i would agree with filing a wishlist request on that proposed feature [01:38] wylde: yeah, i marked it as such [01:38] alrighty :) [01:38] (the feature Daekdroom stated) [01:38] it'd be instantly triageable :P [01:39] lol [01:40] I honestly think adding some awareness to wireless security options would be a good thing. [01:40] i agree [01:40] if Daekdroom or you files the feature request, i'll support it :P [01:40] heck, I could file that feature request [01:41] question though: [01:41] which package gets the feature request assignied ot it? [01:41] network manager? [01:41] wicd? [01:41] :P [01:41] I'm not very familiar with the different types of encryption, so I don't think I'm the best to file it. [01:41] oooo nice idea Resistance, make make a squashfs file and keep the backup as a mountable/exportable FS :) [01:41] maybe make* [01:41] wylde: go register on brainstorm, post your ideas/solution to it [01:41] i strongly support additional solutions :) [01:42] I think it should be the package that contains the indicator. [01:42] Daekdroom: they both have indicators for wifi networking [01:42] * Resistance has used both [01:42] i also dont know what's on each derivative [01:42] i could find out, but i'm slightly lazy :P [01:43] I'm most familiar with network manager, anyone could find out. We're all just a little lazy :P [01:43] or "busy"? [01:43] i know network manager, i've filed bugs against it before :P [01:43] nm-connection-editor process is where it is.... What package does that belong to? [01:43] * Resistance is both lazyish and busyish [01:43] Daekdroom: i'll apt-file it [01:44] Daekdroom: network-manager-gnome [01:44] afaict at least [01:44] but that's not the source package [01:45] at least not afaict [01:45] (in natty) [01:46] network-manager-applet (in precise) [01:46] i think [01:46] that's the source package for network-manager-gnome [01:49] well apt-file checks against binaries... [01:49] this is why i keep packages.ubuntu.com around :P [01:49] :) [01:49] It is the source package indeed https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/ [01:50] I use apt-file mostly for fixing compile dependencies [01:50] Daekdroom: apt-file to find the binary, packages.ubuntu.com/[release]/[package] to find the source [01:50] :po [01:50] :P * [01:51] Doesnt apt-file have a "showsrc" ? On android right now so cant check. [01:51] nope [01:52] note i'm checking in natty still, should probably use precise [01:52] Ahhh. Itd be in apt-cache then [01:52] yep === Resistance is now known as EvilResistance [03:23] Hi [03:25] 'ello [03:26] Suffering from a bit of an anxiety attack, ick. Happens for no reason and I get all tensed up [03:26] might need to get that checked. [03:27] Yeah, it's probably either what I grew up with and caused the depression or hypothyroidism [03:27] I'm self-diagnosing with hypothyroid, but a lot of the symptoms match but tests don't show that [03:27] as i said, best get that checked. [03:28] yep [03:32] I actually got to confirm a bug I though was in error o.O [03:32] thought* [03:33] wylde: which bug [03:33] nice [03:33] Bug #994189 [03:33] Launchpad bug 994189 in gnome-terminal "killall incorrect tab completion" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/994189 [03:33] tab completion really is misbehaving [03:34] for certain programs [03:34] works fine in zsh :P [03:34] EvilResistance: yeah, but even if it's some programs, it's a bug :) [03:34] and it may even just be in bash [03:34] did you confirm in zsh or some other shell? [03:34] hmmm true [03:34] (just to be sure) [03:34] I'll do that [03:35] because if the same issue happens with zsh, then its gnome-terminal, but if it happens in bash and not zsh, then... well... [03:35] it could just be bash (so test in a tty) [03:36] and if its reproducable in the TTY in bash and/or zsh, then it could be bash and/or zsh [03:36] or the tab-completion package or whatever it is [03:36] same behaviour in tty [03:36] * EvilResistance is a believer in thorough testing when it comes to a terminal interface to make sure the bug isnt in the shell [03:36] then the issue could be tab completion in bash [03:37] or whatever shell [03:37] yeah [03:37] do me a favor and load up some other shell, say zsh, and make sure tabcompletion is enablecd [03:37] then test again [03:38] if it happens in all shells, then it'll be a global tab-completion bug [03:38] rather than just gnome-termina; [03:38] gnome-terminal [03:38] hrmmmm [03:38] if it doesn't happen in zsh or something in gnome-terminal and TTY, then it could just be bash tab completion [03:39] same in xterm [03:40] in bash? [03:40] bah then it should be against gnome-terminal .... [03:40] yeah [03:40] (and i didnt mean a different terminal emulator) [03:40] (i meant an entirely different shell, i.e. not bash [03:41] aye [03:42] bahaha sh is just funny [03:42] i dont call 'sh' a valid shell xD [03:43] lol well I'm not getting any real results with zsh [03:44] real results being... [03:45] not able to reproduce? [03:45] (did you do theh config thing and enable tab-complete) [03:45] you mean the initial thing that pops up asking me to hit a key? [03:46] Populate your ~/.zshrc with the configuration recommended [03:46] by the system administrator and exit (you will need to edit [03:46] the file by hand, if so desired). [03:46] is the option i went with [03:46] mmm, see i customized it [03:47] does tab completion work on your system without additional configuring? [03:47] yeah I haven't, I just installed it and went with the default. [03:47] to a point [03:47] did you test tab completion on something else with that? [03:47] not with killall plug [03:47] with anything else [03:47] (and if it works on other things, try killall plug[tab] ) [03:48] Completing `process' or `corrections' [03:48] just use the default config [03:48] dont bother customizing [03:49] yeah, zsh is no help heh [03:49] so the issue occurs there too? [03:49] I can't get the tab completion to work [03:49] no result there [03:49] hmm [03:50] hang on a sec [03:50] this is 12.04 right? [03:50] mine is yes, the OP didn't give any details. [03:50] I asked them too though [03:50] lemme test in my VM of 12.04 [03:50] er to* [03:51] ooo bash-completion may be the right package [03:51] well hang on a moment :p [03:52] * EvilResistance grabs his zshrc, uploads to remote-location, and opens his VM for Precise [03:52] I am, just trying to determine the culprit :) [03:52] yep, i have most of the zsh tab completion active :P [03:52] * EvilResistance will test [03:52] thanks [03:52] if i can confirm the error exists in zsh as well [03:52] then its a bigger problem than just gnome-terminal [03:53] if its not reproducible within zsh with most of the tab completion stuffs enabled, but happens in bash, it may be bash-completion [03:53] * EvilResistance will test with TTY as well [03:53] this is why bugsquad is awesome: some of us do more thorough testing :P [03:53] lol [03:53] and we can sometimes provide alternate insights :P [03:53] * EvilResistance loads the VM now [03:54] always a good thing :) [03:57] bahaha, I almost killed unity with exiting a byobu shell >.< [03:59] i'm curious what plugin-container is in... [03:59] ahh... [03:59] ffox i think [03:59] and only for plugins to rujn [04:00] yep [04:00] lemme load up youtube :P [04:00] alrighty [04:03] hmm [04:03] i can't confirm this exists [04:03] tab-complete doesnt work [04:03] did you hit enter? [04:04] it LOOKS like it works, but the command won't complete [04:04] it doesnt tab-complete :P [04:04] that's the problem [04:04] not until I delete the r in container [04:04] and bash-completion is there [04:04] hmm [04:04] oh wait there it is [04:04] yeah, it may be a bug in 'killall' [04:05] not bash-completion [04:05] * EvilResistance was in ZSH ;p [04:07] wylde: do you think this exists in gnome-terminal? [04:07] * EvilResistance has to ask [04:08] not just gnome-terminal, same issue in xterm and tty1 [04:08] right, which makes it bash-centric [04:08] give me a few seconds [04:11] i'm adding that this is filed against bash-completion, but i may also file this against psmisc, and add additional details for psmisc [04:12] alrighty, thanks :) [04:14] bahaha looks like he was kubuntu too, and I only see that because he made a mistake with apt-cache policy [04:15] damn it, i cant write correctly [04:15] validated got autocorrected to invalidated [04:16] LOL [04:16] whatever [04:16] * EvilResistance shrugs [04:17] the package is 'Opinion' against gnome-terminal, but is filed against bash-completion and psmisc [04:17] (psmisc for killall, if this bug is confirmed in any terminal emulator, should be marked 'confirmed') [04:17] (and in any shell, including zsh [04:17] ahh alrighty I see. [04:19] but as well, it may be an additional bug that needs separate filing [04:19] actually i lied it should be marked as confirmed [04:21] could possibly need to go upstream? [04:22] for psmisc, possibly, but i'd not mark it as triageable [04:22] i'm going to determine a potential priority for it, and poke a bugcontroller [04:22] heh alrighty. [04:24] it may be either low or medium... [04:26] wylde: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance [04:26] against psmisc (in this case 'killall' command) [04:26] what would you say the importance should be? [04:26] ahh I see [04:27] * EvilResistance wants your opinion now :P [04:27] lol, I'll do some reading :) then give you one :P [04:27] well its not hard to tell [04:27] that's an outline of what bug severity (low, medium, etc.) should be against packages [04:28] i'm going to say low, but meh [04:28] I'd say low, it's basically annoying and not going to really affect the system. [04:28] agreed. [04:29] bugcontrol members: LP Bug 994189. To change: affects:psmisc: Severity change to 'Low'. Status of 'Confirmed' is valid as it has been confirmed by myself and wylde. [04:29] Launchpad bug 994189 in psmisc "killall incorrect tab completion" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/994189 [04:30] sounds good to me [04:31] yeah, that's my poke to bugcontrol to change the severity. we can't, they can. [04:31] :) [04:31] could always subscribe them hehe [04:32] nah, they're a subset of the bug squad and the bugs team [04:32] they're just a group with more privileges [04:33] we shouldn't subscribe them to anything, we poke them here [04:33] same if we think a bug needs 'Triaged' status [04:33] bugcontrol has to be poked, and the triage system says to poke here if you're not already bugcontrol [04:33] (which we arent) [04:33] ahh alrighty. I'll keep that in mind, I did however subscribe the alsa team to a bug last week :) [04:34] wylde: that's an upstream group though [04:34] :P [04:34] that's a different story [04:34] hehe yep [04:34] (although be careful subscribing other groups to bugs... [04:34] yeah I wouldn't do it all the time. [04:34] * EvilResistance returns to what he was doing prior to bugsquad stuff today, which was coding [04:35] * wylde blares "codemonkey" on the stereo! [04:37] oh, and thanks for the assistance EvilResistance :) [04:38] mhm [06:59] I confirmed Bug #995747 , which 'seems' to be caused by one line of code in the "external tools>>remove trailing spaces" sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' [06:59] Launchpad bug 995747 in gedit "Gedit: Remove trailing spaces feature removes last line." [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/995747 [07:59] ok the problems not the sed >.< [08:16] I'm also not sure if this needs to go upstream? [12:11] hi i'm new.. where is a list to see package for adoption or requesting for help or wherever call . ? [12:16] emper0r: Well, the bug list on launcpad.net you should be able to find stuff requested for packaging, but there are loads of bugs on there - what are you after doing? [12:19] i'm try to start help, seeking some littles and easy issues to can adapt here.. and after experience increasing my scope. particulary python/qt problems :| [12:20] sorry by my english. [12:52] emper0r: That's OK, so if you know python/qt why don't you look at packages that use it, and look at their lists of bugs? [12:54] ok... that list exactly where is it? [12:55] btw, that means exactly.. triage in othwer words? [12:58] emper0r: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu well you can triage if you want, but you can also help fix stuff [13:24] emper0r: If you're a Pythonista, maybe this is something that'd interest you: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Python/FoundationsQPythonVersions [14:22] seeing a few people saying that apport is crashing in ubuntu.py add_hooks_info === zyga_ is now known as zyga === philinux is now known as eye-gor [16:57] lucid user here for some quick -proposed verification?

Or.. an even odder question.. [19:12] The previous version of a software has a bug. The current version does not, but the current version is supplied in a different package. Is that bug valid? [19:12] GraemeLion: yes [19:12] GraemeLion: yes to your first question about triage :) [19:12] GraemeLion: link for the second issue? [19:13] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tf/+bug/985712 [19:13] Launchpad bug 985712 in tf "when run inside a screen session, tf loses the buffer on resizing" [Undecided,Confirmed] [19:13] tinyfugue (tf) and tinyfugue version5 (tf5) are two different packages [19:14] tf5 does not contain this bug [19:15] GraemeLion: odd, why are there separate packages? [19:15] GraemeLion: yes, valid for tf since it's still in quantal [19:15] micahg: Okay, makes sense :D [19:15] greg-g: Heck of a question that one. [19:16] I have no idea, though. There likely shouldn't be two packages here. [19:16] looks like tf should be removed in Debian (different maintainers though) [19:16] And in fact, tf5 is symlinked to tf as an alternative. [19:18] * micahg sends a mail [19:18] thanks micahg [19:19] micahg: over my pay grade ;) [19:19] Heh. I just picked a package I was familiar with to see if it had bugs. Was going to try to potentially fix it if necessary [19:20] ah, right...tf5 is still a beta, that might be why :) [19:20] * micahg decides not to send the e-mail [19:20] micahg: It's been a beta for a good long while, though [19:20] yes, that's true [19:20] It might only be a beta because Ken Keys dropped off the map 5 years ago :D === zyga_ is now known as zyga [19:24] Anyways, I recommend it as a low. Workaround exists. [20:02] hi all === EvilResistance is now known as Resistance [21:14] I'm thinking Bug #996090 may be a support request but I'd like another opinion since I'm not 100% positive the following comand would clear up the issue 'sudo dpkg --clear-avail && sudo apt-get update' [21:14] Launchpad bug 996090 in ubuntu "dpkg error on dist-upgrade" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/996090 [21:15] command* [21:17] it's a support request, but support requests arent bugs [21:18] from the bugs guides: Status: Invalid: This should be used if the reported problem is not a bug at all ... [21:18] so i'm marking it as invalid, but if someone else thinks otherwise, feel free to reopen it [21:19] * Resistance shall return later === zyga_ is now known as zyga
