[08:05] <JohnTeddy> What is a good way in python where I can find out what apps are being used on the Desktop? So I want to write software to see how my time is being spent, then have a summary afterwards. So I want to know each time a window focus changes, etc.
[08:05] <JohnTeddy> What is a good python library to use for this, for Ubunbu
[08:05] <JohnTeddy> er, Ubuntu*
[10:32] <nafcool> hey guys!
[10:32] <nafcool> I too am taking part in the showdown
[10:33] <nafcool> how do I use the Unity launcher API
[10:33] <nafcool> I'm using Qt
[10:33] <nafcool> :D
[11:01] <nafcool> also, i'm using Qt
[11:01] <nafcool> how do i make my app run from /opt/ ?
[11:04] <morten771> making an package that install it there?
[11:05] <nafcool> and for the showdown we can make a package?
[11:07] <nafcool> morten771: ^^
[14:13] <Phoenix87> hi
[14:14] <Phoenix87> could I use a lil help here pls?
[14:14] <Phoenix87> this is my problem http://askubuntu.com/questions/154706/quickly-wont-package-my-app-11-10
[14:14] <Phoenix87> any ideas?
[14:15] <Phoenix87> I'm developing an app for the showdown and I'm worried that I won't be able to correctly submit the app
[14:51] <commandoline> Phoenix87: no idea, sorry, but it might help to check if there are e.g. differences in the structure compared to a new quickly application. Also I see git in that post, while bzr is the 'usual' version control system for Ubuntu, so that might conflict. Just guessing though.
[15:23] <Phoenix87> commandoline: yeah that .git thing puzzles me as well
[15:25] <Phoenix87> i created the project with quickly create ubuntu-application on 11.10
[15:25] <Phoenix87> btw I that i'd suffice to provide the source code for the app showdown
[15:35] <commandoline> I thought the requirement was to have it in the software center
[15:36] <commandoline> hmm, the channel #quickly exists
[15:36] <commandoline> maybe somebody there has an idea
[15:37] <Phoenix87> commandoline: well i think that I can manage to upload the code on my launchpad account, but I'm not sure about the software center. Would that be an issue?
[15:38] <commandoline> http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown/ -> You must submit the app to the Software Centre
[16:08] <Phoenix87> solved! thank you anyway!

[16:19] <nafcool> where do i get the necessary header file?
[16:20] <mhall119> nafcool: you're using C++?
[16:20] <nafcool> mhall119: yep
[16:20] <mhall119> can you use GObject Introspection from C++?
[16:21] <nafcool> I'm not sure :(
[16:22] <mhall119> if not, the package libunity-dev probably has the C headers you'd need
[16:23] <mhall119> but I'm a C/C++ novice, so I'm not really sure
[16:23] <mhall119> if you haven't figured it out by Monday, join #ubuntu-unity and ask one of the actual developers there
[16:24] <nafcool> mhall119: actually, I've installed libunity-dev
[16:24] <nafcool> and I have the header file but I'm facing many prblems
[17:03] <Medival> hi
[18:33] <__h__> hi, anyone?
[20:53] <__h__> what is the myapp_lib/ and myapp/ directories in a quickly project
[20:53] <__h__> do?
