* apachelogger wonders what to do now02:37
ScottKapachelogger: Apparently fix kimpanel (reading kubuntu-devel)02:50
apacheloggeryeah02:50
apacheloggeryou know02:50
apacheloggerthat made me remeber02:50
apacheloggerI want to remove crap no one maintains/uses on the dev team02:50
apacheloggeramong it the kim stuff02:51
ScottKJontheEchidna: If you want to kpythonpluginfactory for python3, let me know.02:51
apacheloggerwe cannot provide reasonable quality in the long run -> throw it out02:51
apacheloggersame goes for accessibility FWIW02:51
apachelogger(apps that is)02:51
ScottKWe sort of need some kind of IM capability though.02:51
JontheEchidnaScottK: that'd be appreciated02:51
apacheloggerScottK: no we do not if the quality is shit and it breaks ever so often02:51
JontheEchidnaScottK: would the .so have the same name? (I think it has to be different)02:51
ScottKJontheEchidna: Dunno yet.  Either I'll have to rename it or install it somewhere odd.02:52
ScottKThat's why I didn't do it originally when I added the Python3 bits.02:52
JontheEchidnaright now the .desktop file specifies:02:53
JontheEchidnaX-KDE-Library=kpythonpluginfactory02:53
ScottKI'll try and get it in the next day or so.02:53
ScottKIt may take some alternatives magic.02:53
ScottKIf fact, I think that's just the way to deal with it.02:54
ScottKkpythonpluginfactory.so.python and kpythonpluginfactory.so.python3 as alternatives for kpythonpluginfactory.so.02:55
JontheEchidnadoesn't that mean you could have only python2 kpythonplugins or only python3 ones?02:55
ScottKIs the factory used at build time or run time?02:55
apacheloggerx-kde-library ought to take care of the alternation02:55
JontheEchidnaruntime02:55
ScottKThen it would.02:55
ScottKThat's a problem.02:56
apacheloggerI don't think you can runtime the plugin from within python code02:56
apacheloggeras the factory is in fact used by c++ components02:56
JontheEchidnayeah02:56
apacheloggerc++ -> factory -> python02:56
apacheloggerso x-kde-library is the only thing that needs to handle things here02:56
apacheloggeri.e. you can have both so's installed kpythonpluginfactory and kpython3pluginfactory02:57
apacheloggerthe app/desktop file opts towards either02:57
ScottKI can probably do that.02:57
ScottKIt's just renaming the .so in the python 3 build.02:57
ScottKBBIAB02:57
ScottKapachelogger: You might use the mail in kubuntu-devel to invite the poster to be our IM guy.02:58

littlegirlHey there, I'm trying to close out the https://launchpad.net/bugs/852519 bug, but I'm running into some difficulty. The welcome.xml file is 0 bytes: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/kubuntu-docs/oneiric/view/head:/docs/welcome/C/welcome.xml but in order to close the bug properly, I need to edit it and change something. How do I get it back? 16:57
ubottuLaunchpad bug 852519 in kubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) "Typos and missing entity in Kubuntu 11.10 documentation" [Undecided,New]16:57
=== echidnaman is now known as jtechidna
tsimpsonlittlegirl: you seem to be looking at the wrong branch, you want lp:ubuntu/kubuntu-docs ( https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/quantal/kubuntu-docs/quantal )17:29
tsimpsonthough, looking at the bzr log, I guess you figured that out17:29
littlegirlNo, I'm fixing an old bug from Oneiric. (:17:32
littlegirlIt looks like the about.xml and welcome.xml documents got deleted and then put back in Precise. I'll see if I can revert them just so that that bug can be correctly closed, since the Oneiric documents don't validate as a result.17:33
littlegirltsimpson: This is on request by the translation team. (:17:33
tsimpsonlittlegirl: it seems to have been removed in revision 248, so grab 247 (or earlier) and you should get the content17:37
ubottuhttp://websvn.kde.org/trunk/?rev=248&view=rev | svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk -r 248 | Taj: added some simple DOC++ tags so "-A" isn't required.17:37
littlegirlYep! Gosh, you're fast. I don't see any comments stating that it was done for a reason, and since they got put back in the next release, I'll go ahead and put them back in the Oneiric docs. (:17:38
tsimpsonthere's a "View changes to this file" link that gives you all the revisions the file was modified, I used that :)17:40
littlegirlOh, slick! I didn't even notice that. I was going through them one revision at a time. (:17:43
=== jjesse_ is now known as jjesse
littlegirlIs there a website that lists the installed software in each release?20:45
tsimpsonlittlegirl: I guess http://packages.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-desktop is the closest you'll get to that20:50
littlegirltsimpson: Yeah, thanks, that lists all of them - installed or not. I'll bet there's a page somewhere that lists exactly what's in each one, but in a little while I'll have the CD and I'll know. (:L20:51
tsimpsonwell recommends are installed by default20:51
ScottKlittlegirl: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/daily-live/current/quantal-desktop-i386.manifest is at least a very close approximation.  That's what we ship in the live FS on the ISO and IIRC that all gets installed.20:54
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
littlegirlScottK: Nice, thanks!20:56
littlegirlNow I have a problem, though. That file doesn't mention kino or kdenlive, and I'm trying to close a bug that wants all references to kino to be replaced with kdenlive. I can't find out whether that should happen or not, and if kdenlive doesn't exist in Quantal, what does Quantal use?20:57
yofelalmost all of that, the live FS also includes Ubiquity and some utilities that you might need (filesystem stuff, etc.) which don't end up on the installation. That's probably the best list you'll find20:57
yofellittlegirl: neither of them is installed by default20:58
yofeland they're both in the archive20:58
ScottKlittlegirl: Neither of them are installed by default.20:58
littlegirlyofel: Ah, that explains that. Should users not use kino and should all references be to kdenlive?20:58
ScottKlittlegirl: In a terminal (konsole) you can type rmadison $PACKAGE (e.g. rmadison kdenlive) to see what versions of what package are in which release.20:59
yofellittlegirl: for sake of KDE software I would prefer kdenlive21:00
littlegirlScottK: Oh, cool, I love learning little tricks like that. (:21:00
ScottKAnd I agree with yofel.21:01
littlegirlWell, my problem is that I was asked to close out this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-docs/+bug/852519 and I got all the documentation stuff done except for that comment in the first entry from the initial bug reporter who would like kino to be replaced with kdenlive.21:01
ubottuLaunchpad bug 852519 in kubuntu-docs (Ubuntu Quantal) "Typos and missing entity in Kubuntu 11.10 documentation" [Undecided,New]21:01
littlegirlI put the Oneiric kubuntu-docs directory, the Precise kubuntu-docs directory, and Quantal kubuntu-docs directory and did a recursive grep for Kino, kino, kdenlive, and Kdenlive, and the kino searches turned up gobs of hits, and there were none for either of the kdenlive searches. It would be a huge job to change them in all three releases, and since one of the goals I have for Quantal is to verify the accuracy (which includes 21:03
littlegirlupdating any of its information to make it current), I'm wondering whether that particular wish shouldn't be granted in that bug.21:03
littlegirlThat bug report is technically three separate bugs. (:21:05
yofelI'm not sure if we should change the documentation defaults post-release. (I'm not a doc writer though)21:06
littlegirlyofel: Someone on the translation team asked me to close out the bug, and when I grabbed the Oneiric kubuntu-docs, they wouldn't validate, so they needed to be fixed anyway.21:06
littlegirlShould I not have done that?21:07
yofelnot my field of expertise I fear, best ask the other doc folks21:07
littlegirlI had talked to LoT and mdeslaur in #ubuntu-docs and they told me how to go about closing the bug, and LoT said he will review what I did and change the status of the bug this evening. I'm just a little big lost because I don't know exactly how to handle a messy bug. (: 21:10
littlegirlI think I'll comment on what I've done on the bug and make it known that not everything that was wished for was accomplished, and leave it to the original bug reporter (or anyone else) to file a new bug on the one thing that I didn't finish. (:21:11
ScottKyofel: I think 'post-release' means a lot less for docs than packages.  I think it's fine.21:14
yofelok21:14

littlegirlIs Quantal considered "the unstable release" or is there a better way to refer to it in comparison to "the stable release" for the LTS?21:49
=== rdieter_laptop is now known as rdieter
tsimpsonlittlegirl: quantal is the development version, it's considered stable once released22:30
littlegirltsimpson: Ah, that sounds a bit better, thanks. (:22:30
ScottK"You do not have any other presence controls active (a Presence widget for example). Do you want to stay online or would you rather go offline?"23:58
ScottKSo I've got two IM windows open, but I can't close the main one?23:58
ScottKThat would be another regression relative to Kopete.23:59
