| bkerensa | slangasek: are you by chance seeing any weird UI issues in the menus in 12.10? With the ambiance theme I see some text backgrounds as gray with white font instead of consistency with the theme... trying to figure out which package to file a bug on | 07:14 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: I've not seen this, no | 15:00 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: yeah I see this http://i.imgur.com/bgYKT.png | 16:22 |
| slangasek | bkerensa: special :) | 16:24 |
| bkerensa | :( | 16:24 |
| bkerensa | seems like the theme is not being handled properly | 16:24 |
| bkerensa | like maybe CSS | 16:24 |
| bkerensa | hi amj | 16:29 |

| * nathwill yawns | 21:03 | |
| nathwill | shoulda gone to bed earlier | 21:03 |
| nathwill | totally spaced that all the execs are in town this week | 21:03 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: heh | 22:08 |
| bkerensa | time to get cracking on some more RC bugs | 22:09 |
| bkerensa | slangasek: a few months back you pointed me to a pretty straightforward guide to setting up a debian chroot on Ubuntu... Do you have that link still? | 22:28 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: wb | 22:30 |
| nathwill | bkerensa, eh? | 22:44 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: welcome back ;) | 22:44 |
| nathwill | bkerensa, i use a debian lxc container for my deb stuff | 22:44 |
| nathwill | sudo lxc-create -n debian -t debian | 22:44 |
| nathwill | that'll create a squeeze host | 22:44 |
| bkerensa | instead of chroot? | 22:44 |
| nathwill | the smarter guys will let you know if that's preferable to a chroot | 22:44 |
| nathwill | i believe it has better isolation, so would probably be preferable | 22:45 |
| nathwill | but yeah, that's what i've been doing | 22:45 |
| nathwill | also, thanks fer the welcome | 22:45 |
| bkerensa | :P | 22:48 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: you looking forward to tomorrow? | 22:48 |
| bkerensa | :) | 22:48 |
| * bkerensa will be lurking at 1pm | 22:48 | |
| nathwill | tomorrow? | 22:51 |
| nathwill | oh yeah | 22:51 |
| nathwill | the loco stuff | 22:51 |
| nathwill | yeah, totally | 22:51 |
| nathwill | so... is it 1pm, then? | 22:51 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: it would appear so | 22:52 |
| bkerensa | 20:00 UTC = 1pm PST | 22:52 |
| nathwill | man wtf freenode | 22:52 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: what do you mean? | 22:52 |
| bkerensa | :) | 22:52 |
| nathwill | lol | 22:52 |
| bkerensa | its yahoo | 22:53 |
| bkerensa | ;p | 22:53 |
| nathwill | no, it's not... | 22:53 |
| * bkerensa kids | 22:53 | |
| nathwill | my other irc servers stayed active... | 22:53 |
| bkerensa | I got d/ced too | 22:53 |
| nathwill | see | 22:53 |
| nathwill | chump | 22:53 |
| bkerensa | heh | 22:53 |
| nathwill | raaawr. | 22:53 |
| bkerensa | yeah so it should be 1pm | 22:53 |
| bkerensa | 20:00 UTC | 22:53 |
| nathwill | k, i'll set a reminder for myself | 22:54 |
| nathwill | what's the channel again? | 22:54 |
| nathwill | #ubuntu-loco-council? | 22:54 |
| nathwill | hrm, it looks like it's just #ubuntu-meeting | 22:55 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: you interested in mentoring some WOU folk? :P | 22:56 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: yeah -meeting | 22:56 |
| nathwill | yeah, i'd be pumped to do it again | 22:56 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: cool well NTR and his friend are interested in diving into Ubuntu Development | 22:57 |
| bkerensa | :) | 22:57 |
| bkerensa | in fact if anyone wants to guide them in their journey that would be great :D | 22:57 |
| bkerensa | I provided some resources | 22:57 |
| NTR | That would be awesome if someone would be willing to offer us some guidance! | 23:03 |
| nathwill | well, i'll help to whatever extent i'm capable | 23:12 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: when I try and apt-get build-dep packagename it throws back E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list | 23:12 |
| bkerensa | =/ | 23:12 |
| nathwill | yuh huh | 23:12 |
| bkerensa | and yet I cannot even edit sources.list since its a chroot and has no editor | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | :( | 23:13 |
| nathwill | so add the source entries | 23:13 |
| nathwill | uh | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | I cant | 23:13 |
| nathwill | install vim | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | lol | 23:13 |
| nathwill | yes you can... | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | without any sources? | 23:13 |
| nathwill | you have sources | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | how will it know where to get packages? | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | it says I dont | 23:13 |
| nathwill | you just don't have source entries | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | :P | 23:13 |
| nathwill | so... you have the deb entries, not the deb-src entries | 23:13 |
| nathwill | does that make sense? | 23:13 |
| bkerensa | nathwill: ok and how do I add them? | 23:15 |
| nathwill | with vim | 23:15 |
| nathwill | bkerensa, i imagine you probably also want to change to wheezy or sid sources, right? | 23:15 |
| nathwill | http://debgen.simplylinux.ch/ | 23:15 |
| bkerensa | sid | 23:15 |
| nathwill | yeah, so install vim | 23:15 |
| nathwill | then generate a sid sources.list | 23:15 |
| nathwill | then dist-upgrade and cross your fingers | 23:16 |
| nathwill | make sure to check the box that says "include source packages" | 23:16 |
| bkerensa | >.< | 23:16 |
| bkerensa | this is for a chroot | 23:16 |
| bkerensa | why would I dist-upgrade? | 23:16 |
| nathwill | deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian unstable main | 23:17 |
| nathwill | deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian unstable main | 23:17 |
| nathwill | do as you wish. this is how i set up my sid lxc | 23:17 |
| bkerensa | huh | 23:17 |
| bkerensa | well its already showing those both in sources.list | 23:17 |
| bkerensa | =/ | 23:17 |
| nathwill | and the deb-src entry is uncommented? | 23:18 |
| bkerensa | yes | 23:19 |
| bkerensa | its as if its being ignored? | 23:19 |
| nathwill | and it still qvetches about build-dep? | 23:19 |
| bkerensa | yeah let me try apt-get update | 23:19 |
| bkerensa | then retry getting the source package | 23:19 |
| bkerensa | bingo | 23:20 |
| bkerensa | >.< | 23:20 |
| bkerensa | huh | 23:20 |
| nathwill | heh | 23:20 |
| nathwill | so i think i'm gonna work up a "bug squashing party preparation" doc we can send with the BSP announcements | 23:41 |
| nathwill | that way people have a headstart on how to get ready, and can maybe hand-pick a couple of bugs they want to eyeball when we do these things | 23:42 |
| === jason is now known as Guest40338 | ||
| nathwill | man... i'm gonna get busted... doing exp date lookups on a couple thousand domains and trying to avoid getting blocked | 23:47 |
| jason_ | Nathwill. I just joined and looking to get started. Would you be willing to mentor me? | 23:49 |
| nathwill | jason_ mentorship w/r/t ? | 23:50 |
| jason_ | not sure what those are. I think Ben may have told you about a classmate and I . We attend WOU. | 23:51 |
| nathwill | sorry, i meant, what are you looking for mentorship regarding | 23:51 |
| nathwill | ^jason_ | 23:52 |
| jason_ | Honestly I am not sure where to start. I was reading that bugs are a good place. | 23:52 |
| nathwill | ok. not sure if you're wanting to help with some bug fixes, or wanted to write an application, or... | 23:53 |
| bkerensa | nathwill is a champion bug squasher ^ | 23:53 |
| jason_ | I am not experienced enough to write an application at this point. | 23:53 |
| jason_ | I would like to learn how to find and maybe eventually fix bugs though. | 23:54 |
| nathwill | ok. so, there's lots of different areas to work with bugs. bug triage and bug fixing are all useful | 23:54 |
| nathwill | yeah, if that's what you're interested in, i'd be happy to mentor | 23:55 |
| jason_ | Well I know I hit a big bug yesterday. I have a newer system with a UEFI bios and could not get a dual boot setup with windows 7 and ubuntu 12.04 on same hard drvie. | 23:55 |
| jason_ | I am definately interested. | 23:55 |
| nathwill | jason_, is beth doing the mentorship program as part of the class again, or are you seeking help directly? | 23:56 |
| bkerensa | becca | 23:56 |
| nathwill | that's it | 23:56 |
| bkerensa | becka even | 23:56 |
| nathwill | thanks | 23:56 |
| nathwill | bekka? | 23:57 |
| jason_ | becka is not doing her class till i think winter term. My classmate and I are doing this on our own | 23:57 |
| nathwill | cool! | 23:58 |
| jason_ | I wanted to join up last year but had issue with the setup. | 23:58 |
| jason_ | My classmates screen name is NTR | 23:59 |
| bkerensa | jason_: I think looking at the Ubuntu Dev wiki and bug fixing wikis ia good start and once you have that info pretty well retained... find a bug on launchpad you want to work on (probably a bitesize) and then begin work on it but if you have questions then would be when we could mentor. | 23:59 |
| bkerensa | but dont hesitate to ask along the way | 23:59 |
