didrockssil2100: I did the ~ubuntu-desktop/nux/precise branch09:48
didrocksbut please, don't change anything packaging-wise in a SRU if there is no good reason. It will be rejected otherwise :)09:49

sil2100JohnLea: same here ;)09:51
JohnLeasil2100; what's up?09:52
sil2100JohnLea: would like to get some final clarification about the super+W case09:52
sil2100The one from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/933776#4709:52
ubot5Ubuntu bug 933776 in compiz (Ubuntu Precise) "[regression] scale/spread: "Initiate Window Picker for All Windows" does not show all windows. It shows only windows from curent workspace." [High,Triaged]09:52
JohnLeasil2100; yup, I remember that discussion09:52
sil2100JohnLea: so, the behavior we expect to be is - when pressing super + W should show windows only from the given workspace?09:53
didrockssil2100: you never know what can happen with packaging change :)09:53
sil2100didrocks: true true ;)09:54
JohnLeasil2100; the default behaviour when a user presses SUPER + W should be to spread all windows from the *current* workspace only.  However ideally this behaviour should be configurable in 'System Settings/Keyboard/Shortcuts'09:54
sil2100JohnLea: excellent - just wanted to confirm this09:55
JohnLeasil2100; thanks!09:55
sil2100JohnLea: since we're actually making a switch to gsettings now, so for quantal it might be ideal to fix this by changing the keybinding to 'how they're supposed to be'09:56
JohnLeagreat, will be good fix some of our keybinding issues09:56

popeyit says that with sticky edges _off_ it should still be sticky, as I read it11:36
popeyis that how anyone else reads the section "What should happen:" ?11:37
sil2100popey: when sticky edges are _off_ and auto-hide is _on_, the edge where the launcher is should still be sticky11:40
sil2100popey: so that you can reveal the launcher11:40

sil2100Trevinho: hi13:20
sil2100Trevinho: are you around? :)13:20
Trevinhosil2100: just back13:29
sil2100Trevinho: excellent - I have a question ;)13:29
sil2100Since we've been testing https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1013751 from the unity SRU - which was supposed to be fixed13:29
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1013751 in nux (Ubuntu Precise) "Nothing should be written into the dash/hud searchbar when holding super, ctrl or Alt" [Undecided,New]13:29
sil2100But when running unity with the unity patch included, we can still reproduce this problem13:30
sil2100Is the nux patch required as well?13:30
sil2100Or should the unity patch be sufficient?13:31
Trevinhosil2100: for 5.0 or 5.0?13:33
didrocksor also, 5.0? ;)13:34
sil2100Trevinho: 5.0 ;)13:36
sil2100Trevinho: since the bug is still there without the nux patch, at least from what we can test13:36
Trevinhosil2100:  the nux patch was required for 6.0, however.... For 5.0 the change has been different to avoid regressions13:37
Trevinhobasically we only filter Alt keys, not Ctrl keys...13:37
Trevinhoor the ibus wouldn't work13:37
sil2100Trevinho: hm13:38
sil2100Trevinho: so the unity 5.0 patch should be enough to fix that bug?13:38
sil2100Trevinho: or not?13:38
Trevinhosil2100: I can get the ctlr fix as well with one line patch in nux btw13:38
Trevinhosil2100: it fixes it partially....13:38
Trevinhosil2100: it fixes the super and Alt thing, not the ctrl13:39
Trevinhothe super one was priority however, since othwerise when doing Super+W with dash opened would have caused a w to be written in the text entry before initiating the spread13:39
sil2100Trevinho: when holding down ctrl and typing in some letters I get some strange text13:39
Trevinhosil2100: yes, that happens... But I can't fix that at unity level without not breaking ibus :/13:40
sil2100Trevinho: hm, ok, but this still means that the fix is not working in its current form13:41
sil2100Not good13:41
sil2100Trevinho: thanks, we'll try sorting this out somehow13:42
sil2100andyrock: ping!13:42
Trevinhosil2100: you only have to include this in nux to get it fixed: https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/nux/text-entry-meta-filters/+merge/11313713:42

andyrocksil2100, shoot13:43
andyrock:)13:43
andyrockI've already answerd btw13:43
sil2100andyrock: ah, I see - so hm, what was this bug about anyway ;p ?13:44
sil2100andyrock: since the HUD looks different than in the attached screenshot right now13:44
andyrockwe used to highlight hud keyword using bold font13:45
sil2100Trevinho: well about this nux fix - since we're doing a nux SRU release this week anyway, and Brandon was gluing together some commits that could be ported to 2.013:45
andyrocksil2100, now we use alpha .50 for normal words/letters13:46
sil2100Trevinho: and he wanted to include rev 627 (the merge/branch) you have mentioned, but said that it depends on some other change in the past and could break the ABI13:46
andyrocksil2100, and alpha 1.0 for highlighted words/letters13:46
sil2100andyrock: ah!13:46
sil2100andyrock: so it's not about how it should look, but what techniques for matching should be used?13:46
sil2100andyrock: so it is indeed fixed in this case13:47
andyrocksil2100, yeah... i think we should open another bug for "but what techniques for matching should be used"13:47
andyrocknot sure it's a unity bug though13:48
sil2100andyrock: anyway, thanks for clearing this up13:49
andyrocksil2100, np :)13:49
didrocksnice work sil2100 ;)13:50
sil2100didrocks: thanks ;)13:50
didrockssil2100: speaking of which, did you have a documentation summarizing the upgrade tests you did from gconf -> gsettings? (just to know if all is green on your side)13:51
didrocksand if we are just blocked by the metacity/g-c-c/unity-2d fun13:51
sil2100didrocks: no, I'll prepare it later today - since I actually wanted to test it also somewhere else, since VMs seem to have some problems13:51
didrockssil2100: ok ;)13:52
Trevinhosil2100: it breaks the api too...13:52
sil2100Trevinho: aww :(13:52
Trevinhosil2100: I can prepare one that doesn't break the abi, but that fixes the ctrl issue13:52
didrockssil2100: so I see at least 2 upgrades tests (in fact 3, but 2 should be enough to cover the 3rd)13:53
didrocks- install old compiz/unity, tweaks a lot of settings, upgrdae to newer compiz/unity, restart the session13:53
didrocksall tweaks should be there13:53
didrocks- and same test, with compiz/unity, but in the fallback session (default profile = Default)13:54
sil2100didrocks: will do! Francis also wants to help me out prepare some automatic tests for the migration script13:54
didrocksexcellent!13:54
didrockssil2100: if you have good automatic tools, we can even include them in the precise -> quantal migration upgrader test13:55
sil2100Trevinho: thanks ;) But we might think about that next time - for now anyway the unity fix is not enough, and that's all I wanted to know13:57
sil2100didrocks, seb128: what should we do if a bug that was supposed to be fixed in an SRU is not fixed completely?14:04
seb128sil2100, if there are no regression set the bug verification-done anyway and reopen it once the update is copied to -updates or open a new bug for remaining issue14:05
sil2100seb128: ok, thanks - no regression, just the fix that landed requires some nux changes that we _currently_ cannot land due to possible ABI/API breaks14:06
jaytaokosil2100: hello14:06
sil2100seb128: but without those it just doens't fix all the problems14:06
sil2100jaytaoko: hi!14:06
jaytaokosil2100: I am on precise. trying to compile unity i get an error related to missing 'unity-protocol-private'14:06
seb128sil2100, that's fine as long as there are no regression14:06
seb128sil2100, or just keep a nux component open on the bug14:06
sil2100seb128: thanks :)14:07
seb128sil2100, set it verification-done anyway if you verified there are no regression, so it doesn't block the SRU14:07
sil2100jaytaoko: hm, what unity you try to compile? lp:unity trunk?14:07
jaytaokosil2100: yes lp:unity14:07
jaytaokosil2100: do I need to compile lp:libunity14:08
sil2100jaytaoko: yes, sadly...14:09
sil2100jaytaoko: you need the latest libunity - and also, you probably need to use the latest packaging for unity as well14:09
sil2100jaytaoko: are you building a package, or just the source?14:09
jaytaokosil2100: just the source14:10
didrocksjaytaoko: you should upgrade to quantal, at least, you will have the latest stack :)14:10
sil2100jaytaoko: as didrocks once said, it is almost always better to build with packaging ;) But anyway, if you just build from source, be sure to have trunk libunity14:11
sil2100jaytaoko: and then somehow ensure that the private libunity libraries are accessible for unity14:11
jaytaokosil2100: yes, I will probably upgrade this week14:11
sil2100(if there are any problems)14:11
jaytaokosil2100: will do! thanks!14:11
