bluesabrepnarciso, knome, mr_pouit: indicator-messages looks pretty hopeless to be honest.  I'm going to hack on it this week, but I don't expect to get anywhere.01:32
micahgbluesabre: the expectation is that we won't ship with it, anything else is a bonus :)01:32
bluesabreGood.  I'm meeting expectations then!  ;)01:33
knomemicahg, looks like dropping gimp dropped the image size to 735 on amd, and 709 on i38612:21
knomemicahg, dropping gnumeric would be over 10MB (gnumeric 2.5MB + gnumeric-common 4MB + gnumeric-doc 5MB)12:32
micahgknome: that's it :(12:56
micahgwell, the korean fonts are about 5MB also12:57
knomeif we dropped those and gnumeric, that would be 15MB+ more.13:02
knomethat would mean i386 fits on a CD already13:03
knomelet's do that.13:04
knomeor do you think we shouldn't?13:04
knomewould you rather drop one more language than gnumeric?13:05
knomekorean fonts, xhosa, one western language and try to drop rest from smaller things?13:08
knome(like a few games)13:12
micahgdo we think a spreadsheet is no longer needed in a default install?13:17
knomei don't think it is; does windows have onw?13:18
knomeone too13:18
micahgidk13:18
knomeor is it always a test version13:18
knomewhat do you think of the last idea?13:18
knome16:08  knome: korean fonts, xhosa, one western language and try to drop rest from smaller things?13:18
knomeat least we wouldn't drop any functionality13:18
elfyfrom an outside user point of view - I'd say it would be better to lose some languages and games than 'useful' things 13:19
ablomenknome, sort of, windows 8 offers you to install a version of microsoft works with adds if you try to open one13:20
knomeif you are korean, korean fonts are useful :]13:20
ablomen*ads13:20
knomeablomen, aha, ok.. :P13:20
bluesabreDoes ubiquity install your language pack if not installed when you select it?13:20
elfyknome: well yea ... 13:20
micahgwestern language I'm ok dropping13:20
knomemicahg, xhosa isn't a "big" language either13:20
knomeif we think it's better to drop western languages, i'm ok with dropping two of them too, but that would leave us with english and one, and that's a bit awkward imo13:21
* micahg wishes xubuntu had a lighter help browser13:23
knomeheh13:24
knomeis there lighter ones for docbook :P13:24
Sysihow useful is gnumeric?13:28
knomevery, if you need spreadsheet editing13:28
knomeotoh, i think many that need, will want LO anyway13:29
micahgalso, keep in mind we can install stuff not in the live env, so the question is, what needs to be in the live env13:29
knomemicahg, well, gnumeric isn't needed in the live environment, if that gives us more space13:29
elfyI was not aware of that - learn something new everyday 13:30
micahgthe catch is we have to remove whatever isn't in the live env from xubuntu-desktop13:30
knomeaha13:30
knomeso people need to install those apps manually, if they want to use them?13:30
micahgoh, hrm, maybe I'm imagining things13:31
knomehehe13:32
* knome pats micahg on the head13:32
knomemicahg, btw, will you be at UDS?13:32
micahgyes13:33
knomeawesome! :)13:33
* micahg thinks xchat should go13:33
knomehow much?13:33
knomeis the fish..13:33
micahg~2.5MB13:34
knomehave we agreed on some stuff already13:34
knomeone western language goes?13:34
knomewhich one is the least spoken?13:34
ochosihm, isn't xchat useful for ppl who want support from the live-system?13:35
knomeochosi, no, they can use webirc13:35
ochosiiirc the link in ubiquity opens xchat with the #xubuntu chan13:35
knomeochosi, no, it's webirc13:35
micahgpidgin has irc support13:35
smartboyhwochosi: We use webchat.freenode.net then13:35
ochosiok ok, then do away with it already :)13:35
elfyI tend to fire up pidgin in the live env13:35
knomeochosi, ;]13:35
knomei can live without xchat.13:36
* elfy makes notes of what he needs to install post install :p13:36
bluesabreI used xchat, then I found that pidgin does IRC better13:36
* smartboyhw can't live without xchat: No cloak on webchat13:36
Sysistatistically twitter client should be more used than irc one.. and there's pidgin anyway13:37
micahghrm, do we need usb-creator-gtk?, it's pulling in udisks13:37
Sysithunar or some part of xfce isn't using udisks?13:38
micahgudsisk213:38
micahg*udisks213:38
knomehow many people are creating an usb disk from the live cd?13:39
* micahg would think not many13:40
knomeme too13:40
* elfy wouldn't either13:40
knomehow much?13:40
* smartboyhw uses Unetbootin to load the ISO into the USB13:41
elfyfrom a livecd?13:41
smartboyhwNo, from an ISO, but then if I do that I will just copy the contents lol13:41
micahgknome: I think at least 1MB13:41
knomemicahg, well...:)13:41
bluesabreI've done it once, but only because usb-creator-gtk is currently broken in Q13:42
ochosimaybe i missed an important point, but why are we so very much oversized anyway?13:42
micahgpython2/3, gtk2/313:42
ochosiwhy do we need python2?13:42
ochosipidgin?13:42
ochosior something else?13:43
micahgmost of the archive still needs it :)13:43
bluesabreI can upgrade catfish whenever needed13:43
micahgblueman, gdb13:43
ochosimeh13:44
ochosiso what needs python3 then?13:44
knomelol13:44
micahgapport and some other core infrastructure13:44
bluesabreprobably usc13:44
ochosioh man13:44
ochosiwe're lucky this isn't the LTS13:45
micahgknome: ok, how about dropping usb-creator-gtk, gnumeric, and making the 2 western languages and the korean fonts i386 only?13:49
knomemicahg, are you sure we'll fit, or is that an estimate?13:49
micahgthat's an estimate13:49
knomegnumeric will definitely get us below 700 in i38613:50
micahgyou want usb creator i386 only as well?13:50
knomei suppose we can drop it completely13:51
knomelet's have some playing space13:51
knomebut i'd still make 1 western lanugage and xhosa i386 only13:51
micahgok13:51
knomeand for that, you'll have my ack :)13:52
micahgwhich one, fr, es, pt?13:53
* knome refers to wikipedia13:53
knomept 208 million native13:53
knomefr 115 million13:54
knomesp 400 million13:54
knomefr it is then13:54
smartboyhwBye france:)13:54
micahghrm, fonts-nanum would be funny as it's in -desktop, so amd64 would install a different set of pacakges than i38613:54
knomeheh13:55
knomeis that the korean fonts package, or just one of them?13:55
micahgthat's the korean fonts package13:55
knomewhat if we just drop them altogether then?13:55
micahgwe could, idk what impact that would have on those users though13:56
knomethey would need to simply install that package?13:57
knome:)13:57
micahgwell, maybe let's see where we're at tomorrow with these changes?14:00
micahgbefore dropping the korean fonts14:00
knomecan you list one more time what the current proposal is?14:00
micahg2 languages i386 only, drop gnumeric (until space appears), drop usb-creator-gtk (permanent)14:01
knomeand languages are xh and fr14:01
micahgyes14:01
knomeok, let's do that14:01
micahgok, uploading new meta14:02
knomethanks again14:02
knomeshould we ask for a respin+14:02
knome+=?14:02
micahgoh, let me add back the indicator stuff that's already in th archive14:03
knomesure14:03
elfyquick put everything back 14:14
smartboyhw!?14:15
bluesabrelol elfy14:19
elfy:)14:20
smartboyhwlol14:20
ochosimaybe we should consider pragha as music player for xubuntu since it already uses greybird for the screenshots :p16:13
ochosihttp://pragha.wikispaces.com/Screenshots16:14
Sysi(that player is *awful* in my opinion)16:14
ochosiheh16:14
knomehah, where's greybird? :P16:15
ochosii assume you didn't like exaile much either, hm?16:15
knomeright, gtk316:15
ochosiknome: http://pragha.wikispaces.com/file/view/pragha-greybird.png/359212265/800x483/pragha-greybird.png16:15
SysiI hardly remember exaile16:23
micahgknome: did we want to drop xchat also?16:25
knomei lost my backlog16:27
knomebut let's see what we get with the other changes first16:27
pnarcisoI see that i386 iso is much smaller now16:39
pnarciso709mb16:40
pnarcisox64 is 735mb16:41
knomeyes16:49
