dglass | I'm working on a bug in package "wakeup" (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wakeup/+bug/935883). I've discovered that it is caused by python-evolution not depending on python-gnome2 (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-python-desktop/+bug/1041785). | 02:17 |
---|---|---|
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 935883 in wakeup "read_evolution.py crashed with AttributeError in __main__: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get_all_objects'" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 02:17 |
dglass | Will this dependency be fixed in python-evolution, or should I add the python-gnome2 dependency to wakeup? | 02:17 |
micahg | seems like it should be fixed in python-evolution | 02:20 |
dglass | Okay, is there anyone I should subscribe to the python-evolution bug (LP: #1041785) to make this happen? | 02:22 |
micahg | sorry, I don't see that dependency in the old version | 02:27 |
dglass | yeah, for some reason it only becomes a problem in quantal | 02:27 |
micahg | when you say with previous version ,is that with the old package or on an old release? | 02:28 |
dglass | old release | 02:28 |
dglass | I'm running 11.10 on my computer, no problem. Also, it's hasn't been reported as an issue in older releases | 02:28 |
dglass | In virtualbox running 12.10alpha3, the problem occurs | 02:29 |
dglass | and there are bugs reported about it | 02:29 |
dglass | see also https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtg/+bug/865988 | 02:30 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 865988 in gtg "Gnome 3.2 issue: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ICAL_STATUS_CONFIRMED'" [Medium,Fix released] | 02:30 |
micahg | sorry, in quantal it needs a rebuild for the new ecal stack | 02:30 |
* micahg has to run, will be back | 02:31 | |
dglass | I apologize, but I don't know what that means, could you explain? | 02:31 |
dglass | okay | 02:31 |
dglass | thanks as always for the help | 02:31 |
micahg | dglass: it actually needs porting to the new ecal API, maybe ask in #ubuntu-desktop to see if anyone is working on it | 04:11 |
dglass | so why does installing python-gnome2 seem to fix the issue? | 04:12 |
micahg | my guess would be it links to the newer ecal library and supersedes the old one somehow with the python includes...idk really | 04:13 |
micahg | nope | 04:13 |
micahg | you'll have to ask a desktop person why, I'd have to dig to figure it out | 04:14 |
dglass | I mean, when the evolution library tries importing ecal, it raises an import error because there is no bonobo module, which is in the python-gnome2 package | 04:14 |
dglass | okay, I'll ask on #ubuntu-desktop | 04:15 |
dglass | one more question though: | 04:15 |
micahg | in that case, a dependency might make sense | 04:15 |
dglass | if nobody is working on this, would it be legit to just add the python-gnome2 dependency to wakeup? | 04:15 |
micahg | well, the question is better asked in -motu, but I'd say that you're trying to work around an implementation detail (unless your package specifically needs it) | 04:16 |
dglass | yes, basically I would see it as a workaround. | 04:17 |
dglass | Okay, I will ask on #ubuntu-desktop. Thanks for checking it out. | 04:18 |
tonylampada | Hi all | 04:36 |
tonylampada | I've made this website for open source projects crowdfunding - http://www.freedomsponsors.org/. Please have a look at it. | 04:36 |
tonylampada | I think it has a great potential to help free software projects, specially on big popular communities like this one | 04:37 |
tonylampada | Right now I'm trying to get it know by as many developers as I can, so, if you like it, please help spread the word | 04:43 |
