[04:23] bryceh: moderated now [04:23] Good morning [04:28] pitti: good morning [04:29] apport-gtk recommends update-notifier which depends on update-manager, but for the Ubuntu GNOME remix, we were going to try gnome-packagekit which has its own update-manager [04:30] hey jbicha [04:30] jbicha: ah, that's because it needs u-m for the automatic crash notification (u-n has the bits that poll /var/crash/) [04:31] jbicha: I did not originally have this recommends:, but people were complaining about installnig "apport-gtk" and then not getting popups [04:31] jbicha: but I'm happy to add an alternative dependency [04:31] without u-n, apport-gtk crash reporting will essentially not work, though [04:32] that might be useful ;) [04:33] does update-notifier need update-manager? [04:33] not for the apport bits [04:33] eventually these should all really become systemd/upstart user jobs, but we have neither yet [04:33] could we drop that depends and count on ubuntu-desktop to pull in update-manager? [04:37] it's already seeded where it needs to be AFAICT except for ubuntu studio [04:39] * micahg can fix Ubuntu Studio now if this will be changed [04:42] hrm, actually, it doesn't have it ATM [04:45] jbicha: I think we can drop it if u-n behaves sanely when u-m is not installed [07:11] smspillaz: Hi :) https://code.launchpad.net/~mc-return/compiz/compiz.merge-minor-fixes/+merge/122398 should be ready now... [07:44] good morning everyone [07:48] good morning everyone === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [08:00] hey chris| [08:02] hey [08:08] hmmm, working on 3g today! [08:32] hey desktopers [08:32] Hi seb128 :) [08:35] Getting HDMI output on my laptop seems to be harder then excepted :( [08:37] Binary nvidia blob can't even read my laptop supported resolutions [08:37] nouveau HDMI output works when manually editting xorg.conf [08:37] hey seb128, how are you? [08:37] but xrandr is broken :( [08:37] hey dupondje chrisccoulson [08:37] bonjour seb128! as-tu un bon we? [08:37] chrisccoulson, I'm good, how are you? [08:37] pitti, j'ai eu un bon w.e merci ! et toi ? [08:37] hey chrisccoulson; still trouble with your connection? [08:37] seb128, yeah, not too bad thanks. hopefully have working internet again later ;) [08:38] seb128: oh, "eu" [08:38] there's a BT guy around now replacing my line. it seems that the people who replaced our roof earlier in the year mangled our cable :( [08:38] seb128: moi aussie; rather quiet, though, I'm still not over my cold [08:38] pitti, taking some time to get over this one :-( [08:39] seb128: I started with the Questions lesson; really confusing! [08:39] pitti, "j'ai eu" is avoir used in passé composé forme (past tense) [08:39] I'm still astounded how French manages to end up in a letter salad like Qu'est-ce que c'est? :) [08:40] hehe [08:42] Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitän! === tjaalton_ is now known as tjaalton [08:44] Laney, guten tag! ;-) [08:44] hallo :-) [08:45] Laney, you're missing an 'f' there :P [08:45] I copied and pasted it, blame the internet :P [08:45] (at least according to the "new" spelling rules) [08:45] seb128, don't teach incorrect french to pitti "J'ai passé un bon WE" not "J'ai eu un bon WE" [08:45] lol [08:46] * pitti watches the French guys fight it out and grabs the snacks [08:46] lol [08:47] jibel, en effet [08:47] seb128, lol :) [08:48] switching user from gnome-shell makes everything freeze when session is started from gdm :( [08:56] ogra_, hey [08:56] ogra_, thanks for fixing the unity-gles issues ... how come it worked only with compiz for you the other day? [09:55] seb128, well, apparently i tested against a unity that had GLES support :/ compiz had actually no issues at all ... everything else did [09:55] ogra_, where did you find that unity?! [09:56] ogra_, well anyway thanks for getting those fixed [09:56] hi, I'm trying to figure out the best way to keep up with chromium updates. the chromium team ppa seems to be no longer updated [09:56] seb128, all unitys since the first upload to precise-proposed have had working GLES suport [09:57] *support [09:57] seeker, get chrome directly from google? [09:57] ogra_, hum ok [09:57] this one was the first where the packaging changed it seems [09:57] (gles2_architectures := foo) [09:58] ogra_, I would be very surprised if that was the case [09:58] seb128, also it didnt really help that it is a native package ;) [09:58] is it? it's not supposed to me [09:58] be [09:58] it wasnt until the last upload [09:58] crap [09:58] seb128: I'd like to stick to chromium [09:59] https://launchpad.net/unity/+download has the orig tarball [09:59] well, orig, upstream [09:59] well, i'll leave that to lukas to fix :) [09:59] ogra_, I guess another 1am upload error, probably missnamed the tarball [09:59] ah, i thought you only took over what he packaged [10:00] yeah, well I sponsored it, I should have noticed that [10:00] well, shit happens :) [10:01] another issue is that the clean target doesnt properly clean up everything, there are bits left in autopilot and some translation bits tend to lie around [10:01] if it were made 3.0 (quilt) you couldn't have that kind of error [10:02] i dont even think the upload has a source/ subdir [10:02] no, it defaults to 1.0 [10:02] Laney, and you could bzr merge cherry pick fixes [10:02] * ogra_ remembers seeing complaints during builld [10:02] couldn't [10:02] why not? [10:02] because it would complain about inline diff [10:02] you can have a 'single-debian-patch' or whatever it is [10:02] and tell you to review /tmp/diff [10:03] which is basically like the old .diff.gz [10:03] that's a huge usability step back [10:03] when you bzr merge -c rev, bzr does the tracking for you [10:03] and will do the right thing next time you merge-upstream [10:03] like see that this revision was already in and handle it without conflict or having to do any work [10:04] if you move the revision to a patch you loose all that [10:04] I wonder if it works if you exclude the generated patch from vcs [10:04] like can it be auto generated [10:04] never mind, /me gets back to reviewing those updates [10:07] ogra_, http://launchpadlibrarian.net/108693811/unity_5.12-0ubuntu3_5.12-0ubuntu4.diff.gz [10:08] ogra_, see, the gles = foo was done in that upload in may [10:08] ogra_, so weird it was working before the recent uploads ... anyway, sorted out [10:08] right [10:10] nice, there's a second fault on my line. it's a surprise that it worked at all [10:36] JohnLea, bug 1025674 [10:36] Launchpad bug 1025674 in update-manager "List of updates is much too short by default" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1025674 [10:44] aha, lets hope this connection is a bit more reliable now :) [10:48] chrisccoulson_, what did you change? [10:49] ogra_, https://launchpad.net/~unity-team/+archive/staging/+packages does have arm* enabled [10:49] ogra_, re your comment in that bug [10:49] why wasnt the issue catched then ? [10:49] seb128, the cable from my house has been replaced. it was damaged by the people who replaced our roof (they'd cut almost all the way through the cable) [10:50] ogra_, "the issue" being runtime? I guess because nobody actually tried the binary === chrisccoulson_ is now known as chrisccoulson [10:50] seb128, the issue being FTBFS :) [10:50] ogra_, that and try prepared the release in a /release ppa which didn't have armel enabled [10:50] arm* [10:50] (and the issue being testing too indeed) [10:50] chrisccoulson, oh, ok [10:51] ogra_, it's mostly "too much rush to get the thing landed at all, didn't have time to do a proper job of it" [10:51] ogra_, but yeah, I will try to make sure it doesn't happen again [10:51] seb128, right, i wuld just like to prevent such issues in the future somehow, several people lost their weekend (or parts of it) to it [10:52] and i think its not your responsibility but upstreams to make sure they tested it [10:52] ogra_, sorry about that, I will pay a round of beers at UDS to you guys [10:52] ogra_, yeah, we made "the best of the situation" I think, which still sucked but for a while I though we wouldn't land anything at all before beta1 [10:52] (yours is probably testing the packaging, but there were massive upstream issues with hardcoded GL linking etc that should have been catched before even giving you the package) [10:53] agree [10:53] it would never have built with that setup [10:53] late landing of compiz GLES made it hard to test the other bits [10:53] yeah, agreed [10:55] also i should have insisted to get nux and unity binaries to test, but i wasnt even aware that armhf GLES was disabled since may [10:56] ogra_, you were, Didier discussed it with you by then :p [10:56] ogra_, but I guess you forgot or didn't notice that was still the case [10:56] seb128, then i blame age :P [10:56] Ah yes, arm testing [10:56] ;-) [10:56] i wonder if we could work something out with QA for doing some upstream daily testing [10:56] ogra_, well, since you had unity running with the new compiz I assumed that unity was ok, which was not the case [10:56] I think we were supposed to have that last week? But I don't remember that happening :( [10:57] sil2100, I think that skipped, too much going on, another issue of being that late... [10:58] we should probably have a checklist for unity releases on arm that has to be worked down by the different teams before an upload can happen or so ... not sure that makes sense [10:59] ogra_, it does [10:59] ogra_, at the bare minimum there should be a "somebody testing it on the pandaboard" check [10:59] well, there should also be an ftbfs check from upstream :) [11:00] well, they have a daily build ppa which has arm enabled [11:00] the thing is that "red" was a normal state until we had GLES landing [11:00] but they didnt enable arm in the packages ;) [11:00] now green should be the normal state :p [11:00] yeah, we are over that now [11:00] someone needs to make sure thats the case before they give you the bits and pieces [11:00] so I expect things to keep working from now on [11:01] * ogra_ hopes so [11:01] and to be regularly tested [11:01] yeah, sadly QA doesnt have proper ways to do desktop testing yet ... [11:01] ogra_, I'm waiting for your google session for my pandaboard :p I'm pondering dist-upgrading it from precise or rather doing a new install [11:01] * ogra_ hopes pitti will fix that though [11:02] try the current quantal images [11:02] they should have the current bits [11:02] not yet [11:02] try the next ones, i dotn think unity made it [11:02] Laney, is that just a dd the iso on an sdcard and boot it? [11:02] should be [11:03] * Laney checks the manifest [11:03] yeah, its in the manifest [11:03] so go for it [11:03] seb128, right [11:03] great, I expected it to be there [11:03] and have a USB disk ready as target device [11:03] (or USB key) [11:08] ogra_, I've a 8GB waiting for that ;-) [11:08] great ! [11:08] * seb128 starts download and go for lunch [11:10] déjeunér! c'est une grande idée! J'ai aussie.. [11:10] pitti: Please use Englihs [11:10] * Laney giggles [11:11] smartboyhw: ici, la language officielle est français! (ask seb128, he'll confirm :) ) [11:11] What's "Englihs"? [11:11] ... What? I don't speak French... [11:12] it's pretty easy to figure that out, even for someone like me who doesn't speak french :) [11:13] Я предпочитаю русский [11:14] i had to open google translate to work out that Laney prefers Russian ;) [11:14] I had to open google translate to prefer Russian :P [11:14] lol [11:15] should have been "moi aussie .." though [11:16] <- german nitpicker [11:16] i thought that pitti would have made klingon the official language in here [11:16] muhahaha [11:17] ogra_: d'accord, pardon; mon français est trés mauvais.. [11:18] lol, mine is worse, thats the only bit i know :) [11:18] smartboyhw: (in case it wasn't clear, we are kidding of course) [11:18] ... [11:18] * ogra_ thought he could show off with that one bit ;) [11:18] ogra_: well, until three weeks ago, mine was basically nonexistant :) [11:18] * pitti lunches for real, bbl [11:18] pitti, i dont think the klingon part was actual kidding ;) [11:20] Laney: it even was grammatically correct Russian preference. [11:22] xnox: Отлично! [11:23] I read those letters as if they were their closest English counterparts [11:23] otnnyho! [11:24] Laney: translit.ru [11:24] Laney: Otlichno [11:24] oh, that's cool [11:25] О, клуб любителей русского [11:29] Russian now? [11:30] :-) [11:33] seb128, i guess you need to wait with your panda install for bug 1044717 to be fixed first [11:33] Launchpad bug 1044717 in ubiquity "ubi-partman crash during Quantal daily install on Panda board" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1044717 [11:34] Duplicate isn't it??

Committed.... new upload.... again? [11:54] yes [11:54] get Colin to review or something [11:54] Laney: renamed widget.... with old code left using old name.... [11:55] and it's not shown on i386/amd64 VMs by default.... [11:55] would static analysis get that? [11:55] stupid dynamic languages [11:55] Laney: yes and yes. [11:55] Laney: is there static analysis for python?! [11:56] I know of lint-style ones like pylint and pychecker [11:56] not sure if they get this kind of thing [11:56] try it [11:57] https://bitbucket.org/jwilk/lintian4python :O [11:58] Laney: hmm we are already running pep8 & pyflakes. Didn't use lintian4python yet. [11:59] pylint looks interesting. [11:59] AFAIK it tends to be more style checks though [12:00] * Laney lunches [12:10] lintian4python uses pyflakes for non-packaging checks [12:25] Hum sorry but I can't acess to "http://pad.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-desktop", is it normal ? [12:27] Oranger, works here, I don't know, seems like a I.S sort of issue if it doesn't work for you [12:27] seb128: "Either you have not been granted access to this resource" [12:27] that's bad... :p [12:27] yeah, not sure what the acl are and who is handling that... [12:28] seb128: Ok, because in the title of the chan I read " If you want to help out, check out http://pad.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-desktop" so that's why I report that ;) [12:29] Oranger, thanks for pointing it, I'm asking the #is guys [12:29] I assumed that it would be publicly availabler [12:29] ok, thank you seb128 :) Please inform me of news about it :) [12:30] Oranger, will do [12:30] Oranger, what sort of things are looking at doing? [12:30] seb128: Just try to learn and read docs before help for the ubuntu-desktop prokect [12:30] *project [12:32] Oranger, you can have a look to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam as well [12:32] seb128: Ok thanks you :) [12:33] seb128: And where can I see things where you need help ? [12:34] seb128: I do want to ask: I look at the page given to Oranger, and why is the part for testing that small?:( [12:35] Oranger, we track outdated packaged on http://people.canonical.com/~platform/desktop/gnome.html which is part of what we do [12:35] Oranger, otherwise bugs that we try to fix: http://status.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/ubuntu-desktop/precise.html [12:36] Oranger, or bug triage... [12:36] smartboyhw, because nobody wrote in there, it's a wiki, feels free to improve [12:37] Ah ah ah [12:37] smartboyhw, is that really funny?! [12:37] No [12:37] I just ah. [12:37] seb128: It seem that you have a lot of work.. [12:37] Oranger, we indeed do [12:40] seb128: So a question: How do I work on testing? Bit weird, I've been doing this for 2 months in the ISO QA Tracker... [12:40] jibel, ^ can you help smartboyhw? [12:40] No thanks seb128....:) [12:40] smartboyhw, do you need help or not? [12:41] smartboyhw, testing is done by the qa team not so much by the desktop team [12:41] No, just wondering why it has such less content [12:41] smartboyhw, because as I told you, too much to do, not enough people, nobody took time to write content there [12:41] Ah [12:41] smartboyhw, but if you want to help feel free to step up and do write something [12:42] OK, I will write sth [12:42] thanks [12:42] seb128: On the package list I can see "newer version available in Debian", it's mean that the package get a superior version on the debian repo than on the ubuntu repo ? [12:42] Oranger, yes [12:42] seb128: So what do you do usually to fix it ? [12:44] Oranger, we update to the current debian version, see http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/ for a more complete documentation on how to do that [12:53] seb128: Ok, but you update package that are in experimental version too ? [13:24] Oranger, we do sometimes, that list is an indication of things we might want to update, everything shouldn't be updated [13:25] more things will be in experimental currently because Debian is in a freeze [13:25] Oranger, btw the #is guys say the pad is restricted to ubuntumembers, that's probably why you don't have access [13:25] so, something being there isn't necessarily an indication that it's risky per se [13:29] Oranger: I believe all you need is to join this group: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-etherpad [13:30] good morning folks [13:30] hey [13:32] Good morning jbicha [13:47] seb128: what's https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-gnome for?

[13:47] jbicha, what xnox says [13:48] jbicha, it was the "people working on GNOME in Ubuntu" first [13:48] but that got superseded by desktop team [13:49] so I created a ubuntu-gnome-dev group which has commit access to our bzr branches and I need to create a separate group for the rest of our contributors or users [13:52] jbicha: ubuntu-gnome-friends?

[16:22] right, what i fear though is that we break it on all non GLES arm installs [16:22] (which is the majority) [16:22] ah [16:23] but it would be good if we could test the difference [16:24] i would say just enable it for one upload ... but i think that should have happened before FF [16:24] why not test it out of a PPA?
