jbichawow, installing ubiquity in a standard chroot tries to install 2/3 of ubuntu-desktop http://paste.ubuntu.com/1184683/00:03
jbichaI guess it's pretty good at installing stuff00:05
xnoxnah =) it works.00:08
xnoxthere are quite a few plugins to deal with a11y, printing / graphics cards drivers, taking webcam pictures, etc.00:08
xnoxbut rhythmbox-plugins is funny =)00:09
xnoxoh it needs a known good working window manager00:09
xnoxwhich gnome-shell might not be marked as such00:09
xnoxfor the full-desktop ubiquity sessions00:09
xnoxjbicha: patches welcome =)00:09
xnoxjbicha: did you get to test my fix for theming / readability issues?00:10
jbichafirefox, webkit & unity are nice touches00:10
jbichaanyway, installing ubuntu-gnome-desktop instead does what I need00:11
jbichaxnox: not yet, how do I run ubiquity from bzr?00:13
xnoxbuild a package. Run in a VM.00:14
xnoxjbicha: to be honest you can update the two files I touched in place for testing00:14
xnox./debian/rules update00:14
jbichaooh, shortcut00:14
xnoxdebuild binary00:14
xnoxwell ubiquity fetches and embeds udebs in it's package00:15
xnoxto make udebs suitable for running under ubiquities command instead of under debian-installer00:15
xnoxthose two commands are needed to build debs.00:16
xnoxto figure out that the bzr-path != install path is left as an exercise to the reader ;)00:17

robert_ancelljbicha, btw, I find it handy to run 'python versions.py' after updating versions as it's really easy to make typos01:49

seb128mvo, what are the pkgcache.bin and srcpkgcache.bin files, what creates them?09:01
mvoseb128: its the mmap binary cache of apt and its apt itself that creates them (libapt to be precise)09:01
seb128mvo, I'm looking at how my disk got full, there are 2GB leftover of those created over years09:01

seb128mvo, can I clean those files or do you need them for debug purpose?09:10
MCR1seb128: Sure, something like this should be integrated into the system - I agree.09:11
MCR1But in times everything gets cached on disk, especially all those web apps - something like that is badly needed.09:11
MCR1I mean Google Earth *could* easily fill even the biggest harddrive probably (it has a limit though) ;)09:12
MCR1seb128: Try Bleachbit, you will be impressed - it is a very nice tool - you just need to configure it once to your liking and then your future clean-ups are just 1-button away - Highly recommended *especially* for those poor SSD users out there ;)09:14

seb128pitti, is they any chance you could look at some of the jockey bugs on errors.ubuntu.com or would you prefer if we found somebody else in desktop to took over it?14:27
seb128pitti, jockey is first on e.u.c daily stats atm, we need somebody to look at that14:28
pittiwe still have so many? in precise, I guess?14:28
pittiyeah, I looked at errors.u.c. a few days ago, but the topmost one is again the absolutely useless one14:28
seb128pitti, well, try just try: except: it?14:28
pittiI thought we finally blocked these in apport, but perhaps people don't install these updates or so14:29
seb128pitti, it's useless but it means tons of user getting prompted about an error :-(14:29
seb128could be, it's hard to say because we stopped using jockey in quantal so we can't use that as a set of "users who are for sure running a recent apport"14:30
pittithey don't all happen at the same place, it'd be quite a lot of try:/excepts (and then just exit with an error dialog, perhaps)14:30
pittiso, I still have my hands full with glib and some other assigned bugs today (and I need to finish soon, need to run in 30 mins)14:30

seb128pitti, yeah, it was not a today topic, but since we didn't manage to get whoopsie turned off for the lts we need to deal with those issues in some way14:33
seb128pitti, we can't keep spamming users with those prompts for the next 5 years...14:33
pitti*nod*, but it's not realistic to fix all crashers14:33
pitti(nor desirable)14:33
seb128pitti, well, not all, but those who score in thousand units on e.u.c we should...14:34
seb128pitti, anyway as said I mostly want to know if you want to look at them at some point or if we should find somebody in desktop (which would be fair enough since it's our team which is responsible for the package)14:34
pitticertainly not "want"; if you need me to look at them again, I can do in the next weeks or so14:36
pittibut I already did several times, and it's really not that easy14:36
pittiand again, the reports are absolutely worthless14:36
pittiand I can't really reproduce any of those14:36
seb128pitti, ok, thanks, I will try to see if the apport side fix to ignore those is somewhat not working14:39

seb128pitti, great, thanks14:46
seb128mterry, feel free to say no for the g-s-d bug if you think you can't squeeze that this week14:46
mterryseb128, hold on, will look at it in a bit14:47
seb128mterry, ok14:47
mterryto see how complex14:47
jbichaseb128: howdy14:47
seb128jbicha, how are you?14:47
seb128jbicha, I made naive changes to gnome-boxes, I might revert those later :p14:47
seb128jbicha, I though qemu-kvm-spice would work on 32 bits and I reenabled the build for i386 but that turns out to not be working great :p14:49
jbichaseb128: qemu-kvm-spice isn't built on i386 in quantal14:50
seb128jbicha, and I changed tracker depends to a recommends since teuf (one of the upstreams) said it should run fine without it, but that turned out to not be totally true due gsettings abort on missing schemas14:50
jbichaBoxes didn't work that great on amd64 though when I tried it a couple days ago14:50
seb128jbicha, I noticed that after upload :p it was built but the source and binaries have been deleted as superseded by qemu-linaro14:50
jbichayeah, it confused me earlier trying to figure out where qemu-kvm-spice was coming from14:53
seb128jbicha, I'm trying to see with slangasek if spice should be enabled on 32 bits in qemu-linaro14:54
jbichaseb128: bug 928432 might be the tracking bug, building qemu-kvm with spice on 32 bit works for Debian but it looks like it needs some work for Ubuntu14:56

seb128kenvandine, chrisccoulson, Ursinha, Laney, mlankhorst, cyphermox, mterry, tkamppeter, robru: it's meeting time if anyone has a topic (none on the wiki so far), also please update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Meeting/2012-09-04 with things you worked on this week for those who didn't write anything yet15:32
cyphermoxseb128: added my stuff15:35
seb128cyphermox, thanks15:36
robruseb128, I can't seem to log in, but I have been working quite closely with barry gutting gwibber all week.15:37
robruseb128, added my stuff, slooooooooowly15:41
seb128robru, ok ;-)15:43
seb128robru, how is the gwibber work going?15:43
robruseb128, it is actually not bad. There is a lot of spaghetti code that barry and I are hacking through slowly, but the end result is shaping up quite nicely. good test coverage.15:44
seb128great15:44
robruseb128, mostly all we have left is to finish the plugins, and then the dispatcher (which was the worst offender for sloppy unmaintainable code)15:44
robruseb128, I would say I'm about halfways done the dispatcher. Over the weekend I mostly finished off the async job-handling bits of it, today I am working on the dbus service points, tomorrow I'll likely tackle a plugin, and then after that all that needs to get done is to tie everything together with some integration tests.15:46
robruseb128, oh, and then after that I'll be able to actually start the work I was told to do, which is convert to Dee.SharedModel for the purposes of letting kenvandine progress with his unity lens work ;-)15:48
seb128robru, finally getting there ;-)15:48
seb128robru, well I'm sure the efforts spent on that will pay over time15:48
seb128better code and tested code is always good ;-)15:49
robruseb128, hell yes, this is going to improve maintainability by a huge amount.15:49

jbichaseb128: could I add looking at bug 1039792 to your to-do list?16:08
ubot2`Launchpad bug 1039792 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] ubuntu-default-settings" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/103979216:08
seb128jbicha, let's see, I'm on holidays in 2 days, it was uploaded before the freeze so you probably just a review for it, maybe ask on #ubuntu-release?16:12
jbichais it ok with the Desktop Team moving those settings to a separate package?16:15
jbichaonce ubuntu-desktop depends on the package, we can drop the gsettings overrides from the individual packages16:15
seb128jbicha, yes, didn't I suggest that at UDS? ;-) In any case it makes sense16:15
jbichaLaney: do you want to review? ^16:15
jbichaseb128: it's a good idea :)16:16
Laneyjbicha: I can't do NEW, so no :P16:21
seb128Laney, is that fine to NEW on principle, no need of a FFe or release team approval?16:24
Laneyah, yes, it needs that16:25
davidcallemterry, are you around?16:33
mterrydavidcalle, yup!16:33
davidcallemterry, thanks a lot! Do you want me to port to oauthlib? I have time for it tomorrow.16:34
mterrydavidcalle, I could also look at it.  Have you started at all?16:35
davidcallemterry, no16:35
mterrydavidcalle, OK, if I get to it and make any progress, I'll comment in the bug16:36
mterrydavidcalle, is there a new upstream release?16:36
mterrydavidcalle, with the flickr secure stuff16:36
davidcallemterry, lp:unity-lens-photos is about to see a new release, so it could wait for the port16:36
mterrydavidcalle, OK16:36
mterryRight, I can just file a merge if I make progress.  OK16:37
davidcallemterry, ok. And yes, the flickr secure fix is in.16:37

mterrypitti, just FYI, the fix for the update-manager jenkins failure is in trunk17:22
mterry(don't know how closely you've been following, but we accidentally broke a test)17:22
seb128mterry, do you know if " [dylanmccall] Group update package details: INPROGRESS" is still happening this cycle?17:23
mterryseb128, seems like no17:23
mterryseb128, next cycle, maybe I can pick it up17:23
seb128mterry, ok, do you know if dylan does IRC?17:24
seb128mterry, I wonder if I should ping him or just set to POSTPONED17:24
mterryseb128, sometimes does as dylan-m17:24
mterryseb128, at this point, it'd be a FFe/UIFe and all that17:25
mterryas you know of course  :)17:25
mterryJust saying, might as well presume POSTPONED17:25
mterryseb128, ^17:25
seb128mterry, yeah, I was checking my IRC logs, he didn't connect (while I was online) for 1.5 weeks so let's assume I will not catch him on IRC today and postpone that17:26
mterryseb128, I poked the design folks about unity-greeter, will let you know.  I also assigned that crasher to me17:27

micahgseb128: are there plans to fix the schema and fontconfig warnings that are experienced on upgrade?20:54
micahg*precise -> quantal upgrade20:54
seb128micahg, dunno, do you plan to fix some? or do you expect those who uploads a lib which points buggy packages to fix all those buggy package just because they did some work by helping updating a lib?20:57
mterryThe schema issues are really an upstream thing, they need to migrate paths to avoid it21:01
mterryI'm not sure why we bother showing them21:02
micahgseb128: having many screenfuls of these warnings scroll by on upgrade certainly doesn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling about the quality of the release, I was hoping there were desktop plans to fix these issues, if not, I'll file bugs based on my logs and see what I can fix, I've already filed a few other bugs I saw21:02
mterryI guess it's part of the compile step21:02
seb128micahg, we already have bug filed thanks, what we lack is patches filed ;()21:03
seb128;-)21:03
seb128micahg, and users use graphical tools mostly and don't see those, but yeah, we plan to address those before release or quiet the warning for the lib side21:03

xnoxmicahg: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/BugFixingInitiative#Fontconfig_warnings21:04
seb128mterry, "we" is upstream in this case, it makes sense to bother a bit people in unstable version about such issue, give some insensitive to get them fixed21:04
seb128mterry, I'm fine with some stdout noise in unstable serie, we will turn off the warnings before release21:05
mterryseb128, we're not upstream for a lot of the schema warnings21:05
mterryseb128, yar, OK21:05
micahgsure, but it makes more sense as a build time warning than an install warning (I guess the schemas aren't compiled until install?)21:06
mterryseb128, I guess my point was that even in an unstable distro release, the people seeing those warnings aren't upstream21:06
mterrymicahg, right, as a dpkg hook21:06
seb128micahg, you can't know a glib build what schemas are in the archive and which ones have incorrect usage of schemas21:06
mterryThe fontconfig warnings though...  that does seem on our plate a bit, since that's easier to patch21:06
seb128mterry, right, but without those warnings we wouldn't be bothered enough to fix that ;-)21:07
seb128mterry, and the reason glib upstream is doing it is to reach devs, not especially distro users ... so yeah, we could turn it off21:07
seb128mterry, I don't feel strongly enough about it to bother before beta221:08
mterryNor I21:08
seb128mterry, see, if annoys micahg enough that he might contribute a patch so it's a win in some way ;-)21:08
micahgseb128: so, should I file bugs for each schema that's wrong and make sure the respective upstreams see them?21:08
seb128if it*21:08
seb128micahg, we already have bugs, contribute patches if you want to contribute something21:08
micahgagainst each package?21:09
seb128each one shipping a schemas triggering a warning yes21:09
seb128is the warning not clear about those being buggy? (e.g do we need to improve the wording)21:10

micahgit sounds like it'll work fine now, but might stop working in the future21:11
seb128no21:11
seb128it's only a warning21:11
