alkisgHi, could someone check LP bug #978654 to verify if I correctly did a branch merge proposal?10:39
ubottuLaunchpad bug 978654 in aptdaemon (Ubuntu) "<type 'exceptions.UnicodeDecodeError'>: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 24: ordinal not in range(128)" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/97865410:40
ogra_hmm, hasnt aptdaemon been ported to py3 yet ?10:43
ogra_oh, pkcompat.py defaults to /usr/bin/env python in the shebang10:49
ogra_alkisg, is python 2.7 installed alongside py3 on that system ?10:50
ogra_(python3 should actually handle strings in utf-8 without having to decode them, the issue looks more like a python version issue)10:51
alkisgogra_: default precise system11:02
alkisgWhen is python3 becoming the default? In 12.10?11:03
ogra_oh, precise, yeah, ignore me then :)11:05
alkisgogra_: dbus.String('Γεια') fails in Quantal as well11:05
ogra_right py3 should eb the default in 12.1011:05
alkisgpython -c 'import dbus; dbus.String('Γεια');'11:06
alkisg==> traceback etc etc11:06
ogra_python3 -c ....11:06
ogra_the binary has a version suffix11:06
alkisgBut aptdaemon doesn't have #!python3 in its headers...11:06
alkisg*shebang11:06
ogra_ogra@horus:~/devel/packages/aptdaemon-0.45+bzr861$ grep -r python3 *|wc -l11:07

ogra_411:07
alkisghead -n 1 pkcompat.py => #!/usr/bin/env python11:07
ogra_thats what i meant :)11:07
ogra_aptd and aptcon are py3 already11:08
ogra_pkcompat.py isnt11:08
ogra_for precise your fix is fine11:08
alkisgWhile for quantal they're going to port pycompat.py to python3 after ff?11:09
ogra_from quantal on the proper fix would be to port pkcompat11:09
ogra_not sure anyone is on it atm though11:09
alkisgAlso I'm wondering what happens when a python2 module imports a python3 module11:10
ogra_given its nearly 3000 line i doubt we'll see a port in time11:10
alkisgSo, if pkcompat.py is python3, and it's imported from a python2 script...11:10
ogra_there are compatibility layers for imports11:11
alkisgAh, nice then11:11
ogra_i dont have the links to the porting guide here but google should help if yu want to look11:12
alkisgNah, we have major bugs to work on, this is just so that we don't have to disable apport completely11:12
ogra_in any case you should try to get a signoff from glazor ...11:12
alkisg(it's annoying to have all students complain about crashes they see all the time)11:12
alkisgHow do I do that?11:13
ogra_hope that he comes around on IRC or mail him11:13
alkisgOK11:13
ogra_(sebastian heinlein, his name and address is all over the code )11:13
alkisgThe most pressing bug we need to solve is the keyboard layout problem... I wonder why it remains broken for so much time, even before 12.04...11:13
ogra_well, does it occurn in non ltsp setups ?11:14
alkisgYeah11:14
alkisgIn all default multilingual setups11:14
ogra_oh, i thought it was just ltsp11:14
alkisgSo, maybe in half of the ubuntu installations11:14
ogra_did you talk to colin about it yet ?11:14
alkisgNo, I didn't know who to ping, I asked here a couple of times but got no response11:15
ogra_well, it often helps to look at the changelog and ping the person that did the most uploads there ;)11:15
=== cpg is now known as cpg|away
alkisgBtw the bug does _not_ occur in LTSP ;)11:15
ogra_ah :)11:15
alkisgOnly in the server, which doesn't use LDM11:15
ogra_so we should just convert all ubuntu installs to localhost ltsp loopback sessions ;)11:16
alkisgHaha, or replace lightdm with ldm :D11:16
ogra_yeah, easy fix11:16
ogra_:)11:16
ogra_people wouldnt even notice you replaced the DM ... their names are so close ;)11:16
