[01:29] <will__> hey guys. i need a way to specify "prefer", "don't mind", "prefer not" and "can't" for each day of the week. here's my two alternatives i can think of: a grid of checkboxes, with prefer/prefer not etc. being vertical axis and days of week being horizontal
[01:29] <will__> or simply a combobox for each day of the week
[01:30] <will__> what do you think is the best out of the two? any other ways to let users choose?
[03:45] <Will123> hey guys. I have a group of radio boxes, and the choices are "prefers to work the same days every week" or "prefers to work different days every week"
[03:46] <Will123> that's pretty inelegant. does anyone have any ideas about what would make better radio button labels and an overall frame label?
[03:46] <Will123> ("Prefers to work...     [x] same days every week [ ] different days every week" seems a bit gross
[05:43] <Will123> getting a bit tense now
[06:11] <dpm> good morning
[06:49] <dholbach> good morning
[06:52] <Will123> hello
[06:52] <Will123> i haven't slept in quite a long time
[06:52] <Will123> but i'm determined to finish my program in time
[06:54] <Will123> does the code quality matter at all in the judging?
[06:54] <Will123> there's stuff in here i wouldn't show my parents let alone feel comfortable showing you guys
[07:15] <dpm> Will123, we won't review the code, but for the app's stability, it'd be nice to have robust code. Crashes will obviously score negatively
[07:20] <Will123> dpm: yeah, that makes sense
[07:21] <Will123> unfortunately due to the time constraints i've had to rush a lot of things and add a lot of horrible hacks. obviously i'm avoiding crashes but post-competition i'd like to go over and touch it up
[07:21] <Will123> and bulldoze some of it down
[08:58] <robotex> Hello
[08:58] <robotex> I created app for Ubuntu Showdown
[08:58] <robotex> But I used Qt4, not Quickly
[08:58] <robotex> So, how can I create package?
[09:02] <sigurdga> robotex: I'm lazy, but I would probably try to get your program to be started by the __init__.py inside quickly
[09:03] <dholbach> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviewBoard/Submissions/PackageQuickStart might help
[09:04] <sigurdga> I'm using gtk, but without Glade or Builder, but quickly runs my python program just fine
[09:17] <Will123> sigurdga: have you tried any unity shell integration yet?
[09:26] <robotex> XB-Icon: is the filename of the app icon. (This must exactly match the icon filename added to the package meta-data in the debian/rules file.)
[09:26] <robotex> XB-Screenshot-Url: is the URL to a screenshot image. This is the screenshot image you upload with your review request, and the URL should be on https://software-center.ubuntu.com.
[09:26] <robotex> Do I must to download somewhere this images and writes URLs?
[09:26] <robotex> Or this is patches to images in repository?
[09:27] <sigurdga> Will123: Only drop file to launcher icon (to open a file in the program), that's all I need, I think.
[09:30] <dpm> robotex, don't worry about these, IIRC they are now handled by myapps.developer.ubuntu.com, so you can ignore them for now
[09:30] <robotex> so, don't add this lines?
[09:31] <Will123> sigurdga: fair enough :) i've not managed it myself
[09:32] <robotex> just this lines or all XB- ?
[09:32] <Will123> guys, i couldn't get drag and drop in my application to work, so as a rubbish work around I have a button on the widget that you click, then you click on another destination widget (simulating the kind of thing you'd do with drag and drop)
[09:32] <sigurdga> Will123: I have nothing that needs indicators or message popups or anything like that
[09:33] <Will123> however i've got nothing that makes it obvious that you're suddenly in the "associate this object with another one by clicking it" mode
[09:33] <Will123> any ideas? what should i do? have a big label that appears saying "you're now in such and such a mode"?
[09:34] <sigurdga> Will123: that was what came into my mind as well (the big label)
[09:35] <Will123> sigurdga: glad it's not too crazy an idea then. :) where do you think i should put it? a status bar at the bottom of the window is too out of the way, and i don't really want to move all my widgets down to fit in a big label at the top. i don't know how to make a temporary popup (infact when i tried, it crashed everything horribly). i'm even considering putting it in the toolbar
[09:35] <Will123> sigurdga: (i've not got any use for indicators or message pop ups either)
[09:36] <robotex> about rules file:
[09:36] <sigurdga> Will123: I'm not so good at this, but I would put a label at the top. I think you can hide() and show() it to enable it when you want to show it.
[09:36] <robotex> You must add a small piece to set up the app icon in the Software Center. (It's a bit ugly, but there's no other way to do it at the moment.) Define an override_dh_gencontrol target that copies your image icon outside the top-level directory (to "../myapp.png"), and then adds the icon to the package meta-data. The name of the file added to the package meta-data must exactly match the XB-Icon filename in the debian/control file. It has to be a
[09:36] <robotex> PNG icon, and not SVG or some other format.
[09:36] <robotex> is this necessary?
[09:37] <Will123> sigurdga: i'll give it a go, thanks :)
[09:39] <robotex> Oh
[09:39] <robotex> override_dh_gencontrol:
[09:39] <robotex>         dh_gencontrol
[09:39] <robotex>         cp icons/myapp-64x64.png ../myapp.png
[09:39] <robotex>         dpkg-distaddfile myapp.png raw-meta-data -
[09:39] <robotex> if this icon folder must be located in debian directory or upper?
[09:48] <dpm> robotex, you can do 'quickly create ubuntu-application foo', 'cd foo', 'quickly package --extras' and then use the generated debian/rules and debian/control files for your example
[09:49] <dpm> assuming you're using PyQt or PySide
[09:49] <robotex> not python
[09:49] <robotex> c++
[09:51] <robotex> in desktop file it must be only SVG icon?
[09:51] <robotex> Can I use PNG?
[09:56] <robotex> ok, I'm doing debuild
[09:56] <robotex> but see error
[09:57] <robotex> debian/rules:13: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?).  Stop.
[09:57] <robotex> but I don't have TABs in this file
[09:57] <robotex> what's wrong?
[10:01] <robotex> dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc failed
[10:01] <robotex> robotex@robotex-laptop:~/workspace/mirrorcam-1.0$ fakeroot debian/rules clean
[10:01] <robotex> debian/rules:13: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?).  Stop.
[10:02] <robotex> what's wrong?
[10:02] <robotex> there is no Tabs in this file
[10:04] <dholbach> robotex, try opening the file in vim for example - it should show you if there's tabs instead of spaces
[10:07] <robotex> is tabs looks like as red lines in vim?
[10:07] <dholbach> yes
[10:07] <dholbach> change the tab to 8 spaces
[10:07] <dholbach> and configure your editor to use spaces instead of tabs :)
[10:07] <dholbach> and you should be fine
[10:07] <robotex> how to input in vim? :)
[10:08] <robotex> I press space, cursor moving, but not inputing
[10:08] <psychognite> helo evry one
[10:09] <psychognite> i have a project to submit in app showdown i don't how to submit it ..... please help me out.. !!
, no. Red lines is a spaces
[10:10] <commandoline> psychognite: http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown/ step 4, what's going wrong?
[10:10] <dholbach> robotex, maybe the indentation is wrong?
[10:10] <robotex> 8 spaces
[10:11] <psychognite> i used quickly to build a package from my project then dput <launcpadinfo>  doesn't work
[10:12] <commandoline> psychognite: do you have an error message?
[10:12] <psychognite> yes
[10:12] <psychognite> sir
, you are wrong. I changed all to TABs and problem gone
[10:13] <robotex> but I see next problem
[10:14] <psychognite> by using quickly package i build .deb .changes .tar.gz .dsc files now what to do next
[10:16] <dholbach> robotex, haha, yes, you're right - I misread the error message above
[10:16]  * dholbach might need another cup of tea or coffee
[10:16] <psychognite> i have creates openpgp keys for launchpad and code of conduct
[10:16] <commandoline> psychognite: try quickly submitubuntu , then it also handles uploading to the ppa as far as I know.
[10:18] <psychognite> error occured:

[10:21] <commandoline> psychognite: see http://askubuntu.com/questions/158853/no-launchpad-project-set-when-running-quickly-submitubuntu
[10:22] <commandoline> (in short, creating a launchpad project like submitubuntu wants to have should work)
[10:23] <robotex> my first deb package in a life ^_^
[10:26] <psychognite> sir i m out of my mind what should b my next step .. ?
[10:26] <robotex> hm, but when I successfully install this package I don't see the app
[10:29] <robotex> so, I get many files
[10:30] <robotex> what can I do with it?
[10:30] <psychognite> i have created ppa and don't know how to upload my files...... can anyone do help me out ... !!!
[10:32] <robotex> if it normal that I don't see my app in /opt?
[10:32] <robotex> and I don't see it in dash
[10:33] <robotex> What?! Why package is empty? 0_o
[10:38] <robotex> What did I do wrong?
[10:41] <jml> psychognite: try 'quickly upload'
[10:48] <robotex> if it normal?
[10:48] <robotex> This package has a Debian revision number but there does not seem to be
[10:48] <robotex> an appropriate original tar file or .orig directory in the parent directory;
[10:48] <robotex> (expected one of mirrorcam_1.0.orig.tar.gz, mirrorcam_1.0.orig.tar.bz2,
[10:48] <robotex> mirrorcam_1.0.orig.tar.lzma,  mirrorcam_1.0.orig.tar.xz or mirrorcam-1.0.orig)
[10:48] <robotex> continue anyway? (y/n) y
[10:50] <robotex> what is the .orig file?
[10:50] <robotex> How to create it?
[10:55] <robotex> Somebody, please tell me
[10:55] <robotex> Is it normal that deb file has size 2 Kb?
[10:55] <robotex> and no contains binaries?
[10:56] <sigurdga> mine is 15k
[10:56] <commandoline> robotex: that's normal.
[10:57] <robotex> but in deb only /usr/share/docs
[10:57] <robotex> continue upload?
, when package will contains files?
[10:59] <robotex> after uploading to AppCenter?
[11:00] <commandoline> robotex: the stuff you're uploading should contain your project files. Debs do, they just don't contain the requirements (those are already in the repositories)
, but where my app files? I opened deb by ark and didn't seen it
[11:03] <commandoline> robotex: well, if your files are nowhere in there, there's something wrong I'd say.
[11:03] <robotex> oh god
[11:03] <robotex> why is it so difficult
[11:05] <robotex> Can somebody see my project http://ubuntuone.com/2y9yodNKHTiOlWqSreUlAr and say what is wrong?
[11:07] <dpm> the fact that it's so hard is one of the main reasons we created Quickly
[11:08] <robotex> yes, Quickly is good
[11:09] <dpm> dholbach is a bit busy right now, but perhaps coolbhavi or ajmitch can have a look at your package and give you a hand if they're around ^
[11:09] <robotex> in archive I included generated files and my source dir with debian dir
[11:10] <dpm> robotex, have you got your code somewhere online? It would help reviewers a lot. This might be helpful if you haven't published your code yet: http://askubuntu.com/questions/154129/how-can-i-publish-my-project-code-online-so-someone-can-help-me-with-it
, if you want to see project code you can do this there https://github.com/NicholasShatokhin/mirrorcam
[11:13] <robotex> but in my archive in UbuntuOne you can see also debian files that need for generating deb package and result files
[11:13] <dpm> ok, cool, glad to see it's online, that will be useful for anyone who can help you
[11:14] <psychognite> sir i have uploaded my package on launchpad now how to indulge in app showdown competition
[11:15] <dpm> psychognite, it's all explained on http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown. If any of the steps is not clear, please, let us know
[11:17] <psychognite> sir i have go through all but now i am struct where i could know my app is on compettion
[11:23] <robotex> can anybody see my code at github? https://github.com/NicholasShatokhin/mirrorcam.git I commited debian files
[11:38] <robotex> how to say debuild put files in bin dir, not in dir with sources?
[11:42] <psychognite> tata bye bye
[11:55] <robotex> what dirs must be in source dir before packaging started?
[12:01] <MetalGodWin> Hello, I'm having problem with packaging my python-app, could use some help.
[12:05] <MetalGodWin> I've installed it with "sudo dpkg --install appyours_0.3-1ubuntu0_amd64.deb"
[12:05] <MetalGodWin> Shouldn't I be able to start it system-wide running "appyours" from the terminal?
[12:06] <Will123> what happens when you try that?
[12:06] <MetalGodWin> command not found
[12:06] <MetalGodWin> if i run python appyours it says "/usr/bin/python: can't find '__main__' module in 'appyours'"
[12:08] <robotex> On the next shutdown I will try to write quickly for Qt4 + C++
[12:08] <robotex> *showdown
[12:10] <MetalGodWin> I'm following this guide (http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-software.html) but it might not apply to python-apps?
[12:16] <MetalGodWin> From some guide: "If you're packaging a Python module, section should be python, but not for applications."
[12:16] <MetalGodWin> Not 100% sure on this.. as I got a python-app. Should I stick with devel, or use python instead?
[12:18] <coolbhavi> robotex, hey
[12:18] <coolbhavi> dpm, sorry missed the ping :)
[12:19] <coolbhavi> robotex, why are you including cmake files inside debian directory?
[12:20] <coolbhavi> oops sorry I took a look wrongly
, are you so some wrong in configs?
[12:29] <coolbhavi> robotex, why is the source field blank in d/copyright
[12:29] <coolbhavi> ?
, debian/copyright?
[12:31] <coolbhavi> yes the copyright file under the debian/ dir
[12:32] <robotex> hm, my fault
[12:32] <coolbhavi> and your package requires qmake I guess
[12:32] <robotex> for building
[12:32] <coolbhavi> yes
[12:33] <robotex> it's first package in my life
[12:33] <coolbhavi> ok :-) it just ftbfs I found qmake missing on my system so installing it now
[12:35] <robotex> I think in debian missing some scripts that must copy binaries into deb package
[12:36] <robotex> wait
[12:36] <robotex> hm
[12:37] <MetalGodWin> No one got a clue on what could be wrong? Can't run my app after installed it, if i use "python appyours" then it says "/usr/bin/python: can't find '__main__' module in 'appyours'"
[12:37] <coolbhavi> yes m just test building let me see the results
[12:37] <robotex> I added something and now debuild copy pictures into package
[12:37] <coolbhavi> robotex, I think you need qt4-qmake as a build dependency
[12:38] <coolbhavi> otherwise it fails to build
[12:38] <coolbhavi> from source
[12:38] <robotex> /usr/share/pixmaps is it correct path for icons?
[12:39] <robotex> Must I add lib*-dev to build decencies ?
[12:40] <coolbhavi> just a moment m test building
[12:41] <coolbhavi> generally pixmaps could do btw
[12:41] <coolbhavi> for icons
[12:41] <robotex> is debian/rules correct?
[12:43] <robotex> must I add files <package_name>.install and <package_name>-dev.install or it's only for libraries?
[12:44] <coolbhavi> no as of now I found just adding qt4-qmake to build dep in debian/control solves the 1st check
[12:45] <coolbhavi> just some time pls I am just building the package now
[12:48] <wooo> hey can anyone tell me how much time is left for submission of  The Ubuntu App Showdown!!
[12:48] <wooo> its urgent...
[12:49] <will> you have until midnight, but i recommend getting it in before then
[12:55] <coolbhavi> robotex, also I found XB-Screenshot-Url:  missing in debian/control
[12:56] <wooo> i have made application in c language.can anyone tell me how to package it and submit it??
[12:57] <coolbhavi> wooo, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviewBoard/Submissions/PackageQuickStart
, 8 hours
[12:58] <robotex> wooo, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviewBoard/Submissions/PackageQuickStart
[13:02] <coolbhavi> robotex, and also try to wrap the long description in debian/control to 80 chars per line
, ok
[13:07] <markus__> hi all
[13:07] <markus__> im one of the App Showdown particiants
[13:07] <markus__> I jkust wanted to upload, now I read deadline is over?!
[13:08] <markus__> or is the countdown @ http://developer.ubuntu.com/2012/07/ubuntu-app-showdown-deadline-approaching-get-your-submissions-ready/ wrong?
[13:08] <markus__> becuase several hours ago it said till midnight UTC
[13:10] <markus__> hi zoopster
[13:10] <markus__> when is App Showdon deadline?!
[13:13] <will> i hope the deadline hasn't passed
[13:13] <will> i'm still working
[13:13] <zoopster> no idea markus__ it says 9 july
[13:14] <markus__> which time zone?
[13:14] <markus__> kk, I'll upload any way
[13:14] <zoopster> doesn't give a timezone
[13:14] <wooo> markus__: on that website also it is mentioned 1 day left.
[13:14] <zoopster> dpm: ^^
[13:14] <sigurdga> I had the counter up from earlier, and it stated 8 hours plus. When I refreshed, it had gone.
[13:14] <markus__> i read time is upo :/
[13:15] <will> yeah I thought I had 10 hours left
[13:15] <markus__> yess suddenly it says no time no more
[13:15] <markus__> me too
[13:15] <will> :( i was juuuust about finishing up too
[13:15] <will> let's not panic
[13:15] <markus__> :D
[13:15] <will> okay, so does anyone here actually know when the proper deadline is? is there anyone we can message?
[13:16] <sigurdga> dholbach should know if this is a website mishap or if it has already passed
[13:16] <dpm> markus__, sigurdga, will, yeah, time is up, the counter has been updated, as it had the wrong end date. If you can get your apps ready in a few hours, we'll get them in too, don't worry, but please hurry up a bit
[13:16] <dpm> will, zoopster ^
[13:17] <markus__> im trying to upload, however quickly share doesn't like me
[13:17] <toabctl> dpm, is there a list with all available apps for the contest?
[13:17] <dpm> markus__, you should use quickly submitubuntu
[13:17] <coolbhavi> dholbach, I am trying to build an app called mirrorcam from source from the package that robotex submitted but its ftbfs due to qmake not found last lines of the log here: http://pastebin.com/0QU2r0R2
[13:17] <dpm> toabctl, we're working on it
[13:17] <markus__> ah, k!
[13:17] <will> thanks for the clarification dpm
[13:18] <dholbach> coolbhavi, might be worth adding as build-dep :)
[13:18] <dpm> I'm tempted to re-reset the counter to the wrong end date to minimize confusion. Let's see if someone else brings it up first
[13:18] <coolbhavi> I tried to build with qt4-qmake as a build dep but it leads to even more weird ftbfs
[13:18] <coolbhavi> ll paste the log in a sec
[13:21] <wooo> i am trying command   dh_make --native --packagename=geekchat_0.1 --copyright=gpl3     to make package of my app that i had written in c language...but i am getting following error...  Currently there is no top level Makefile. This may require additional tuning.Done. Please edit the files in the debian/ subdirectory now. You should alsocheck that the geekchat Makefiles install into $DESTDIR and not in / .
[13:22] <wooo> somebody please help!!!
[13:22] <will> dpm: i totally wouldn't mind if the counter got reset to the wrong end date :P
[13:23] <MetalGodWin> Packaging a python app, what should I type on depends in the control-file? Different sites says different things.. *confused*
[13:23] <wooo> somebody please help!!
[13:24] <coolbhavi> dholbach, here it goes: http://pastebin.com/CV83Lm8X maybe some linking missing?
[13:24] <MetalGodWin> wooo im getting the same message at the end in return.
[13:24] <dholbach> coolbhavi,
[13:24] <dholbach> daniel@daydream:~$ dlocate /usr/bin/uic-qt4
[13:25] <dholbach> libqt4-dev-bin: /usr/bin/uic-qt4
[13:25] <dholbach> daniel@daydream:~$
[13:25] <dholbach> this might be missing
[13:25] <MetalGodWin> not sure if works anyway.. you still get the debian-folder right?
[13:25] <coolbhavi> ah ok thanks!
[13:25] <wooo> MetalGodWin :  yaa i am getting the debian folder
[13:27] <MetalGodWin> wooo: I think it's supposed to behave like that. So that message is nothing to bother
[13:28] <MetalGodWin> on the guide im following that message appears in teh example*
[13:32] <noneed4anick> hey guys
[13:33] <noneed4anick> I'm wondering when the deadline for the UAS is? Is it 9th at 00:00 or 9th at 23:59?
[13:33] <noneed4anick> also in which time region?
[13:34] <markus__> deadline is over, but they accept the ur project when u upload in the next hours
[13:34] <coolbhavi> dholbach, still no luck :)
[13:35] <dholbach> coolbhavi, what's the error message now?
[13:35] <coolbhavi> ui_MainForm.h:13:27: fatal error: QtCore/QVariant: No such file or directory
[13:35] <coolbhavi> compilation terminated.
, are you include libqt4_core-dev?
[13:36] <MetalGodWin> argh.. what should I fill as depends on my python app.. except python itself. If my app depends on quickly (As in my app extends quickly) should i add quickly as a dependency?
[13:36] <markus__> then ur INLCUDE_PATH may be wrong
[13:37] <dholbach> coolbhavi, libqt4-dev
[13:37] <coolbhavi> dholbach, figured it out :)
[13:38] <coolbhavi> robotex, I guess you need to add whole bunch of packages to build-deps
[13:39] <robotex> Ok, I will add this and then commit
[13:39] <robotex> wait for minute
[13:44] <markus__> quickly  fails @ "quickly package"
[13:44] <markus__> so i cant submit
[13:44] <markus__> it fails without ERROR message, just fails
[13:45] <markus__> i cant run quickly share, quickly submitubuntu. Is there another way to deliver without packaging?
, try this https://github.com/NicholasShatokhin/mirrorcam.git
[13:47] <coolbhavi> robotex, wait a min I get qt opengl not found now
, I added libqt4-opengl-dev to depends
[13:51] <coolbhavi> robotex, moved it to build dep
, yes, to build-depends
[13:51] <coolbhavi> ok
[13:52] <wooo> hey for packaging our application did we have to make package of the whole source or we have to make package of binary file or something else????
[13:53] <noneed4anick> markus, can you run debuild -S ?
[13:54] <noneed4anick> in your project folder?
[13:54] <markus__> trying
[13:54] <markus__> debuild: fatal error at line 627: cannot find readable debian/changelog anywhere! Are you in the source code tree?
, do you have file changelog in debian dir?
[13:55] <markus__> noneed4anick so no i cant
[13:55] <markus__> i dont have a debian dir
[13:55] <markus__> shouldn't quickly do that?
[13:55] <robotex> markus__, changelog file
[13:55] <robotex> Change the release target from "unstable" to the current Ubuntu release "oneiric".
[13:55] <robotex> Add the ARB version string "-0extras11.10.1" to the package version.
[13:55] <robotex> The finished file will look something like:
[13:55] <robotex> myapp (0.1-0extras11.10.1) oneiric; urgency=low
[13:55] <robotex>   * Initial Release.
[13:55] <robotex>  -- My Name <myname@example.com>  Sun, 01 Apr 2012 13:20:56 -0700
[13:56] <robotex> markus__, instead oneiric - precise, instead 11.10 - 12.04
[13:56] <coolbhavi> robotex, now getting opencv not found error :) the list is growing big :)
[13:57] <robotex> coolbhavi>, wait
[13:57] <wooo> markus__: are you making the package of whole source folder??? if i have to include my executable file in it??
[13:57] <robotex> coolbhavi, I made misprint in Build-Depends
[13:58] <coolbhavi> robotex, build depends is basically build/compile time depends to build the package
[13:58] <markus__> I'm sorry, iI don't get what u mean. I made my app with "quickly" and python.
[13:59] <markus__> quickly created a debian folder, so now i do a changlog file
, I commited
[13:59] <coolbhavi> ll check pls wait
[14:00] <markus__>  debuild -S
[14:00] <markus__> now works
[14:00] <markus__> dpkg-source: error: source package name `blubPhone' contains illegal character `P
[14:02] <markus__> how do I change the name in quickly?
[14:02] <coolbhavi> robotex, there is duplicate build depends field now in the git
[14:02] <coolbhavi> :)
[14:03] <robotex> wait what?
[14:03] <robotex> fuck
[14:04] <robotex> try this
[14:04] <coolbhavi> robotex, :) just paste it at the top :)
[14:16] <markus__> finally
[14:16] <markus__> i was able to upload
[14:17] <markus__> i had to enable prerelease install 2 other packages and change the name to lower case
[14:25] <robotex> Hm...
[14:25] <robotex> Maybe I need to compile binaries into bin folder and in debian/install add copying this folder
[14:26] <robotex> but how can I tell debuilt to compile into bin?
[14:29] <robotex> anybody remember how to set compile destination in *.pro?
[14:29] <robotex> yeah, DESTDIR
[14:30] <markus__> thx, guys for helping me, mananged to upload all files.
[14:31] <markus__> is it enough, that i uploaded only one file @ "my Apps" @ developer.ubuntu.com ?
[14:31] <markus__> the files content is http://developer.ubuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Ubuntu-App-Showdown-Participation-Details.txt
[14:34] <robotex> Yeah! Worked!
, I undestood packaging dao :)
[14:35] <robotex> wait, I will commit
[14:35] <coolbhavi> :)
[14:35] <coolbhavi> sorry was having dinner
, ok, I need some time to reorganize my repository
[14:36] <coolbhavi> robotex, sure brb
, what files except binary and icons must be in deb?
[14:44] <ian__550> Hi, I'm trying to package and app to /opt using quickly package --extras, but the program spits out an error when run that locale can't be found.  There's no /opt/extras.ubuntu.com/app/share/locale directory created. How do I fix this?
[14:50] <robotex> omg, I don't see timer any more?
[14:50] <robotex> Can I still send app?
[14:57] <MetalGodWin> Still could use some guidance on packaging a python app if anyone is up for it. Been at it for hours now
[15:01] <robotex> guys, where debuild gets paths for compiling? I moving sources, how to tell debuild where it?
[15:07] <robotex> anybody knows?
[15:07] <markus__> did have huge problems too
[15:08] <markus__> but got it after some hjours
[15:08] <markus__> MetalGodWin whats ur problem?
[15:08] <MetalGodWin> not sure on what i should fill in on build-depends or depends in the control file.
[15:09] <markus__> did u do the python app with quickly?
[15:09] <MetalGodWin> nope, from scratch by hand
[15:09] <markus__> (quickly edit)
[15:10] <markus__> ah, hmm... okay... then I  can't help. I had huge problems with quickly submitubuntu, an thought that's the problem
[15:10] <MetalGodWin> well, python coding from scratch.. could one soltion be to create a quickly app, then merge my sourcefiles with that project?
[15:10] <sigurdga> MetalGodWin: That should work
[15:10] <commandoline> depends is for dependencies when running, build-depends for dependencies while building the application
[15:11] <commandoline> MetalGodWin: that's probably the easier solution
[15:11] <MetalGodWin> commandoline, markus__ thanks. I'll try that.
[15:30] <robotex> anybody knows how to tell debuild where seek sources files?
[15:38] <coolbhavi> debuild -S -sa will build and upload with the src tarball
[16:14] <robotex> oh my god
[16:15] <robotex> app icon not showing on Launcher
[16:15] <robotex> how can I add icon to launcher?
[16:29] <commandoline> robotex: did you install via the software center?
[16:29] <commandoline> because only the software center adds the icon as far as I know.
[16:30] <robotex> I not about this
[16:30] <robotex> I found decision http://askubuntu.com/questions/65054/unity-launcher-api-for-c
[16:30] <commandoline> ok :)
[16:37] <robotex> Can we still send applications?
[16:40] <sigurdga> I hope so, as I am about so upload now
[16:43] <robotex> are you using python?
[16:43] <robotex> signal << "application://firefox.desktop";
[16:43] <robotex> if firefox, app works with firefox icon
[16:43] <robotex> if I put my app name, I don't see icon
[16:43] <robotex> what's is wrong?
[16:44] <robotex> Do I need register my app somewhere in dbus?
[16:44] <sigurdga> i'm sending default icon, no more energy
[16:45] <robotex> how to create default icon?
[16:45] <robotex> I don't see any icon in Launcher, only in Dash
[17:03] <MetalGodWin> how do i change adress of my ppa when submitting with quickly??
[17:04] <MetalGodWin> I had 2 on launchpad.. deleted the first yesterday and created a new one today. No when im submitting to ubuntu quickly tries to upload to my old/deleted ppa... really annoying
[17:06] <MetalGodWin> Do I need to sign a new key or something...? Or what is it that connects the adress of this deleted ppa ?
[17:14] <robotex> I cant set icon to Launcher
[17:15] <robotex> even when I drag it from dash
[17:15] <robotex> Qt4
[17:23] <robotex> why apps can't pin to launcher?
[17:23] <robotex> what's probably issues?
[17:27] <robotex> if I delete appname.desktop, all ok
[17:27] <robotex> why?
[17:34] <sigurdga> really a lot of fields to fill out on the developer site
[17:51] <robotex> Yahoo! Done
[17:51] <robotex> How to send app?
[17:58] <sigurdga> When you submitted on the development site, you should not upload file, you should make comment about PPA, using the defined format. But it is not easy to understand if you comment has been submitted or not, as it looks like it failed because of missing binary.
[17:59] <sigurdga> Getting tired of all these forms, I was finished with my app several hours ago.
[18:02] <robotex> I don't understand
[18:03] <robotex> Must I turn checkbox I load my app later?
[18:03] <robotex> Where do I must upload text file for showdown?
[18:04] <robotex> where must I put comment?
[18:04] <robotex> where can I get format?
, can you explain what can I do?
[18:06] <sigurdga> I actually got it now. You should upload that file. I'll give you the details.
[18:06] <robotex> Upload deb file?
[18:06] <robotex> Or txt?
[18:06] <sigurdga> http://developer.ubuntu.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/Ubuntu-App-Showdown-Participation-Details.txt
[18:06] <sigurdga> Fill in this file, and upload it
[18:07] <sigurdga> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviewBoard/Submissions
[18:07] <robotex> upload instead deb file?
[18:07] <sigurdga> should be named ppa-info.txt
[18:08] <sigurdga> yes, you have to upload to a ppa, and specify that ppa in this file
[18:08] <robotex> So, I must fill, rename to ppa-info.txt and upload? I must upload in my apps or throught dput?
[18:12] <sigurdga> I used submitubuntu
[18:12] <sigurdga> quickly submitubuntu
[18:12] <sigurdga> it took a while, and there was a lot of stuff to do
[18:15] <robotex> I see in wiki two URL needed
[18:15] <robotex> but in file only one
[18:15] <robotex> How must calls second URL for Sources?
[18:17] <sigurdga> just use that file, withour renaming
[18:17] <sigurdga> without
[18:18] <robotex> it's renamed to a ppa-info_3.txt
[18:18] <robotex> is it normal?
[18:19] <sigurdga> yes
[18:19] <robotex> Your application has been submitted for review.
[18:19] <sigurdga> and if you use the original filename, mine got _72 appended, so that is probably the correct thing to do
[18:19] <robotex> Done?
[18:20] <sigurdga> that is what I have done
[18:20] <robotex> Must I add deb somewhere?
[18:20] <sigurdga> Not if you have already uploaded to a PPA
[18:21] <robotex> I upload dput ppa:robotex/ppa mirrorcam_1.0-0extras12.04.1_i386.changes
[18:21] <robotex> is it enought?
[18:22] <sigurdga> I think your looks more empty than mine: https://launchpad.net/~sigurdga/+archive/maps
[18:23] <sigurdga> oh. my failed to build, so I'm still not finished :(
[18:23] <sigurdga> some well known lib issue, it seems
[18:23] <robotex> robotex@robotex-laptop:~/workspace/packaging/mirrorcam/1.0$ dput ppa:robotex/ppa mirrorcam_1.0-0extras12.04.1_i386.changes
[18:23] <robotex> Package has already been uploaded to ppa on ppa.launchpad.net
[18:23] <robotex> Nothing more to do for mirrorcam_1.0-0extras12.04.1_i386.changes
[18:24] <robotex> But on my PPA page I don't see anything?
[18:26] <robotex> Is it normal?
[18:30] <robotex> So, is job done?  Can I go drink beer? :)
[18:36] <robotex> Good night to all!
[18:36] <sigurdga> I don't know
[18:36] <robotex> And goodluck with review!
[18:36] <sigurdga> should it say .changes?
[18:36] <robotex> It already updated
[18:36] <robotex> I see my app
[18:37] <sigurdga> ok. good.
[18:37] <robotex> I hope it will be accepted
[18:37] <robotex> good luck
[18:37] <robotex> I go to celebrate :)
[18:37] <sigurdga> Good luck to you as well!
[18:37] <sigurdga> I hope you are more lucky with the build at launchpad
[19:09] <gld1982ltd> is anyone here today?
[20:55] <toabctl> how can i push my app to my ppa with quickly when i use quantal but want to push for precise?
[22:10] <guinea-pig> I'm confused about the showdown deadline
[22:11] <guinea-pig> the javascript countdown timer on http://developer.ubuntu.com/showdown forgot to take into account timezones, i think
