dholbachgood morning06:53
ajmitchhighvoltage: not sure if you're alive yet, but I've uploaded unity-lens-askubuntu to the staging ppa & am looking at why the patch isn't working for harmonyseq in precise now10:05
ajmitchyay, dh-autoreconf magic worked with that10:30
dpmgood work ajmitch :)11:36
highvoltageajmitch: ok great12:42
highvoltageajmitch: (bbiab)12:42

wendarI'm doing a quick pass through submissions, to catch any with quick responses14:03
wendarlots are coming in with PPAs, that's a good sign14:03
wendarqreator looks like it's just about ready for final review/vote14:09
dholbachdpm, ^ time to throw a party? :)14:13
dpmoh wow, wendar made my day!14:13
* dpm is already preparing a new release after it first hits the software center14:14
wendardpm: I've installed the package from your ARB PPA, I've got one hiccup (I think)14:55
wendardpm: I expect it to do something when I click New or URL14:55
wendardpm: maybe it's just gotten confused on one of the code paths14:55
wendardpm: really nice clean look and feel though, and kudos to whoever did your logo14:56
wendarah, got it, *double-click*14:57
dpmwendar, ah, weird. Let me install that version from the PPA, see if I can reproduce it. Myself, Gimp and Inkscape did the logo, thanks :)14:57
dpmwendar, ah, yeah, it's a bit of an annoyance from the Gtk.Iconview control14:58
wendardpm: usability question rather than bug, and not a blocker to publishing14:58
dpmcan't set it up to react to single ckick :/14:58
dholbachhey wendar14:58
wendardholbach: hiya14:58
dholbachwendar, I started feeding apps into pkgme - it's been a lot of fun, but I'm not done yet14:58
dholbachI'll let you all know once I'm done14:59
dpmI agree, I'll try to ask someone more knowledgeable on Gtk, as now that someone else than only me found it annoying, I can imagine other folks will too14:59
wendardholbach: cool, good to hear the results14:59
dholbachbut I got a first fix into pkgme already - AFAICS it's quite nice to work on14:59
wendardholbach: I've nearly got my ARB backend done14:59
dholbachwendar, wow - can you let me know if it's up somewhere for testing? :)15:00
wendardpm: it's quite cool to watch the QR code change as you type in15:00
wendardholbach: yup, I'll publish my branch15:00
dpm:-)15:00
wendardpm: yours will likely be the first app to go through with the new way of publishing package meta-data, so it'll be a bit of a test15:06
wendardpm: just keep an eye out for any trouble with icons in Software Centre after it's published15:07
dpmwendar, sure, I'm happy to help testing, and I'll try to react quickly to feedback.15:07
dpmwendar, I'm still learning what happens behind the scenes when a new app gets published. What's this new way of publishing meta-data you're mentioning?15:08
wendardpm: in your package (and all older packages) there are some added lines in debian/control to tell Software Center the name, category, and icon for the package15:10
wendardpm: in the new way (we just found out about at UDS), that's all handled by MyApps15:10
wendardpm: it uses the information you submitted to MyApps15:10
wendar(which makes sense)15:10
dpmwendar, ah, gotcha, were those the lines andrewsomething added already to the control file, or did you have to modify something else?15:11
wendardpm: so, we can simplify the packaging a bit15:11
wendardpm: yup, I'm just removing those lines15:11
dpmok, thanks15:11
wendarI could leave them in, they don't hurt anything, but you're a friendly face for testing the new way of doing metadata15:11
wendarI figure you'll be more tolerant if it doesn't work the first time and we have to quickly republish15:12
wendarer, "republish in a hurry"15:12
dpmabsolutely, feel free to break stuff, happy to help testing the system :)15:12
dpmwendar, mterry is preparing an SRU to fix the packaging issues Quickly has got for apps in extras. Do you happen to know if the new way to add the name, category, and icon for the package has been filed as a bug in Quickly?16:03
wendardpm: he asked me about it a few days ago16:03
wendardpm: AFAIK, it is schedule to be fixed in this SRU16:03
dpmah, excellent, thanks16:04
wendardpm: I don't think a ticket has been filed16:04
dpmif it's targeted already, it's fine, no need for an extra ticket. Let me double-check with mterry on #quickly, I think you're there too16:06
ajmitchwendar: fwiw, unity-lens-askubuntu & (finally) harmonyseq are probably ready for voting & in the staging PPA, I removed the extra metadata from them as well20:06
