| ritz | robert_ancell, morning , how are you doing ? busy ? | 04:18 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, PAM messages overwrite LightDM's user field when using pkcs11 smartcard authentication | 04:18 |
| ritz | what do you think of a pop up, or notification for error messages ? | 04:19 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, bug #? | 04:19 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, private bug report | 04:19 |
| ritz | as yet | 04:19 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-greeter/+bug/968855 | 04:19 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 968855 in unity-greeter "Errors and Comments from pam (here: pam-pkcs11) are written in user-names - and therefore unreadable (dup-of: 838555)" [Undecided,Triaged] | 04:19 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 838555 in ayatana-design "Unity Greeter - Support complex authentication requests" [High,Fix committed] | 04:19 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, oh, you mean unity-greeter | 04:20 |
| ritz | yes | 04:20 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, the issue is you can't really detect from PAM what sort of message it is. | 04:20 |
| ritz | hmmm | 04:20 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, is your issue the same as the screenshot in 968855? | 04:21 |
| ritz | yes | 04:22 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, and the issue is the text writes over the top of the username? | 04:22 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, yup | 04:22 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, I was thinking more along the lines of gdm/gnome-shell design . notifications for error messages/information/prompt | 04:23 |
| ritz | maybe not the right choice, with lightdm | 04:23 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, what version of u-g is this? If you run unity-greeter --test-mode and scroll to "long info prompt" it shows the text laid out correctly (quantal) | 04:23 |
| ritz | 12.04 | 04:24 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, it's up to the greeter how it wants to display the PAM text, not LightDM | 04:24 |
| ritz | hmm, sweet | 04:24 |
| ritz | hmm bad | 04:24 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, ok, could just require some backporting then | 04:24 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, sweet, on this then | 04:24 |
| ritz | thanks :) | 04:24 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, I tend to like the way gdm notification works with gnome3 | 04:24 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, what is your view on the same ? | 04:25 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, I haven't tried the notification, I'll have a look. Note that Unity Greeter is designed by the design team, not me. I'm happy with handling failures more clearly using a dialog or similar as long as we can reliably detect that from PAM. | 04:25 |
| ritz | hmmm | 04:27 |
| ritz | robert_ancell, hmm, thanks. will check with them at UDS | 04:28 |
| ritz | robert_ancell++ | 04:29 |
| robert_ancell | ritz, Mika Meskanen is the person to talk to (mika) | 04:29 |

| pitti | salut didrocks, ça va? | 06:06 |
| didrocks | pitti: still coughing like mad :/ I think I'll see a doctor this afternoon | 06:08 |
| didrocks | pitti: yourself? | 06:08 |
| pitti | urgh, that lasts long | 06:08 |
| pitti | didrocks: we went visiting a friend in Marburg over the weekend; that was fun (and rather lots of drinking in the evening) and going to bed at 3:30 and so, so still a little dizzy :) | 06:09 |
| pitti | didrocks: perhaps now during the beta freeze you can take a day off and spend it in the tub and the bed? | 06:10 |
| didrocks | pitti: ah, nice weekend for you then! :) | 06:10 |
| didrocks | pitti: well, I already spend the weekend like that with no positive evolution | 06:11 |
| didrocks | pitti: so, the doctor option is taken for today :) | 06:11 |
| didrocks | don't really feel bad, just coughing a lot and so, feel tired | 06:11 |
| didrocks | pitti: I'm supposing you are working on the glib test timeouting issue on armhf? if so, can you please update to latest glib at the same time? | 06:16 |
| pitti | didrocks: I am, yes; but I'd rather get it to build first | 06:23 |
| pitti | didrocks: uh, another one? | 06:23 |
| pitti | didrocks: I was hoping to get the current -proposed version into quantal today, as it's the same version that we already have there | 06:23 |
| pitti | for a new upstream version I'd rather keep it in -proposed until after b2? | 06:24 |
| didrocks | pitti: ah, sure :) | 06:24 |
| didrocks | pitti: so that upload | 06:24 |
| didrocks | and then, staging 2.34.0 into -proposed | 06:24 |
| pitti | oh, the final already? | 06:25 |
| pitti | I'm not yet through my weekend/morning email, I suppose I need to do a final pygobject release as well | 06:25 |

| dpm | hey morning pitti. I just noticed that the Ubuntu One control panel appears untranslated, as it's not finding ubuntuone-control-panel.mo, which seems to have disappeared from the latest Quantal language packs. I've checked on Launchpad, and we haven't done any changes to the template: it should still be exported. Any ideas where it could have been left out, langpack-o-matic perhaps? | 09:08 |
| Laney | I saw a bug complaining that gnome-panel isn't translated any more too | 09:10 |
| Laney | bug #1055295 | 09:10 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1055295 in gnome-panel "Translation files are no longer installed in quantal" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1055295 | 09:10 |
| didrocks | weird, gnome-panel is in universe for a long time already | 09:19 |
| Laney | it has X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes | 09:22 |
| Laney | does that do anything? | 09:22 |
| didrocks | not sure TBH | 09:24 |
| chrisccoulson | hey didrocks, do you still get the issue with compiz freezing when the screensaver activates? | 09:32 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: didn't suspend/resume for a long time enough to see it, why? | 09:32 |
| chrisccoulson | didrocks, i don't know if it's just bad luck, or if something changed last week, but it now does it consistently, every single time my screensaver activates for me :( | 09:33 |
| chrisccoulson | it did it every time i left my laptop over the weekend, and just now when i went to grab some coffee | 09:33 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: it wasn't on screensaver activation for me, but rather on suspend/resume (never got it when the screensaver activated) | 09:33 |
| didrocks | tjaalton: thoughts? ^ | 09:33 |
| chrisccoulson | didrocks, ah, it's definitely screensaver activation for me | 09:34 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: tjaalton thinks it's an issue with mesa | 09:34 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: and not really fixable in time though :/ | 09:34 |
| chrisccoulson | i get these warnings in my Xorg.0.log when it happens too: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1224153/ | 09:34 |
| chrisccoulson | i hope it's fixable. quantal is basically unusable for me right now ;) | 09:34 |
| tjaalton | chrisccoulson: try a mainline kernel (3.6rc) | 09:34 |
| chrisccoulson | tjaalton, is there somewhere to install those from? | 09:34 |
| tjaalton | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ | 09:35 |
| chrisccoulson | thanks | 09:35 |
| tjaalton | there are people reporting success with it.. | 09:35 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: while you are around, any news about the chat button and the dismiss of quick filtering? | 09:35 |
| chrisccoulson | not yet ;) | 09:35 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: for the chat, can't we really deactivate them? | 09:36 |
| tjaalton | asked mdeslaur to test as well, would be nice to bisect it on a separate bug and not on the monster that got slashdotted.. | 09:36 |
| didrocks | chrisccoulson: I'm afraid we will release quantal with it :/ | 09:36 |
| pitti | dpm: sorry, missed your ping | 09:44 |
| pitti | dpm: I'm not sure actually; is it in the exported tarballs still? | 09:44 |
| pitti | dpm: I don't see any trace of it in quantal.log | 09:45 |
| * seb128 hugs pitti back | 09:47 | |
| seb128 | thanks | 09:47 |
| seb128 | (sorry I was "off-site" with my old laptop, just catching back on my main computer backlog) | 09:47 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, you're back!! (hi btw) | 09:47 |
| pitti | dpm: checking current export | 09:47 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, hey | 09:47 |
| seb128 | Laney, gnome-panel uses langpacks | 09:48 |
| seb128 | Laney, that X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack is for universe packages to have them langpacked | 09:48 |
| Laney | I thought it might be, ta | 09:48 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, how was your vacation? | 09:50 |
| seb128 | Laney, yw | 09:50 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, quite good, relaxing | 09:50 |
| seb128 | I'm glad I missed the beta2 crazyness :p | 09:50 |
| chrisccoulson | heh | 09:50 |
| Laney | yeah, it was quite crazy ... | 09:51 |
| seb128 | I managed not use the computer for most of the holidays, not for work stuff at least ;-) | 09:51 |
| pitti | dpm: hm, it is in the latest export again, but that's not the tarball I used (I used the 0830 export and manually merged the latest delta) | 09:52 |
| chrisccoulson | that's what i need to do the next time i take some vacation :) | 09:52 |
| pitti | dpm: so I can only assume that it'll be back in the next build | 09:52 |
| chrisccoulson | (i should take vacation when there isn't a firefox release) | 09:52 |
| pitti | dpm: hm, it even is in my merged tarball | 09:52 |
| didrocks | pitti: are you taking care of latest glib now that you fixed the FTBFS or do you want me to? | 09:53 |
| pitti | didrocks: I can (and it's already in the Debian svn) | 09:53 |
| didrocks | great :) | 09:53 |
| didrocks | thanks pitti | 09:53 |
| pitti | but I really want to get this version into quantal without bothering the release team too much | 09:53 |
| seb128 | pitti, robert_ancell did the update apparently (from my bug emails) | 09:53 |
| pitti | didrocks: but it still failed | 09:53 |
| seb128 | he just hit a failing test | 09:53 |
| didrocks | pitti: urgh? | 09:53 |
| pitti | didrocks: I don't know what changed a week or two ago at our arm builders | 09:54 |
| pitti | anyway, I retried the builds | 09:54 |
| Laney | failed with a test failure still? | 09:54 |
| pitti | seb128: I discussed that with him last week, we eventually just synced it back | 09:54 |
| pitti | it doesn't happen on all the other arches nor the Debian arm builders | 09:54 |
| didrocks | seb128: speaking of 2.34.0 after the FTBFS fix :) | 09:54 |
| pitti | i also committed my changes to Debian | 09:55 |
| pitti | we can sync back if/when we sync pcre3 from Debian | 09:55 |
| dpm | pitti, thanks. Weird. I noticed it when I saw the .mo file wasn't in any of the langpacks I've got installed (ca, de, pt_BR, zh_CN) | 09:55 |
| dupondje | gtk+ is build on quantal with --enable-debug? :) | 10:03 |
| Laney | seb128: hum, I don't see that gnome-panel ever got picked up by the langpacks | 10:08 |
| Laney | at least it doesn't appear in language-pack-gnome-de-base since the change | 10:09 |
| seb128 | Laney, you need dpm or pitti about that, could be a bug in the universe langpack feature | 10:09 |
| seb128 | not sure it got lot of testing | 10:09 |
| dpm | Laney, seb128, indeed it is. | 10:09 |
| dpm | so it seems that translations from universe are imported and exported fine from LP | 10:10 |
| dpm | but LP fails to list them in a text file that langpack-o-matic processes | 10:10 |
| Laney | so a bug in launchpad? | 10:11 |
| dpm | so they are ignored. We knew that this affected banshee and we (pitti) worked around it in langpack-o-matic by hardcoding banshee | 10:11 |
| dpm | but we didn't know other packages were affected | 10:11 |
| dpm | it's a bug in Launchpad | 10:11 |
| Laney | filed anywhere? | 10:12 |
| dpm | I contacted a LP dev last week about it, but he's busy with something else, need to ping someone else | 10:12 |
| Laney | let me grep to see if any other universe packages use this | 10:12 |
| dpm | Laney, yes, bug 1048556 | 10:12 |

| Laney | building | 10:13 |
| Laney | we'll find out if doko's suggestion works when it gets to the end and tries to link | 10:14 |
| seb128 | Laney, I was rather meaning ... staying on 1.9.2, going for 1.10, rolling back to 1.8 | 10:14 |
| Laney | ah | 10:15 |
| Laney | well I think security don't want us to have a development release | 10:15 |
| seb128 | yeah, neither do I | 10:15 |
| Laney | but going backwards would be fairly horrible | 10:15 |
| seb128 | I tried hard to get the new version to build before holidays | 10:15 |
| seb128 | but without luck | 10:15 |
| Laney | well, as said in the bug I got it to build | 10:16 |
| seb128 | do you know if upstream did the change they said they would do? | 10:16 |
| Laney | with a patch to make and removing -g (debugging) | 10:16 |
| Laney | couldn't find any evidence of that... you mean splitting the lib? | 10:16 |

| seb128 | Laney, https://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/1.10.x suggests it's not done | 10:21 |
| seb128 | Laney, I guess we should build with -gstabs if that works | 10:22 |
| seb128 | so we can update | 10:22 |
| Laney | well that also needs the make patch | 10:22 |
| seb128 | right... | 10:23 |

| jasoncwarner_ | it definately is duplicate and we'd want to keep our own IM/chat program over thunderbirds for sure | 11:01 |
| didrocks | jasoncwarner_: thunderbird doesn't autoconfigure it. But if you do configure it, you are connected to one of the IM thinking you are not (and missing messaging for instance) :) | 11:03 |

| ogra_ | because you like it slow ? | 15:15 |
| ogra_ | or because your HW doesnt have proper floating point support ? | 15:15 |
| ogra_ | (or because its not armv7) | 15:15 |
| desrt | it's a tegra3 | 15:16 |
| ogra_ | if the answer to all three is no, you should consider switching ;) | 15:16 |
| ogra_ | LOL | 15:16 |
| ogra_ | yeah, use hf | 15:16 |
| desrt | i assume the android kernel will be happy with tat? | 15:17 |
| desrt | *that | 15:17 |
| ogra_ | kernels dont care | 15:17 |
| desrt | they definitely do | 15:17 |
| ogra_ | not about floating point in userspace, no | 15:17 |
| desrt | the kernel needs to be aware of the FP registers in order to do proper context switches | 15:17 |
| desrt | otherwise one process ends up with the registers of another | 15:17 |
| ogra_ | i dont think the kernel does anything with FP registers | 15:18 |
| desrt | it kinda has to... | 15:18 |
| ogra_ | and i have run hf userspace 100 times on top of el kernels | 15:18 |
| desrt | when you do a process context switch, you need to store the registers of the process in some kernel data structure somewhere | 15:18 |
| desrt | and restore them when you come back | 15:18 |
| ogra_ | (and the other way round) | 15:19 |
| ogra_ | all that counts is libc | 15:19 |
| ogra_ | (and everythin linked against it) | 15:19 |
| desrt | maybe you got lucky? :) | 15:19 |
| * desrt notes that values would not be stored in FP registers for long periods of time, so unless there is active heavy floating point crunching going on by two separate processes at the same time (on a single core) then changes of register thrashing are lowered | 15:21 | |
| ogra_ | desrt, well, i guarantee yu that you can run hf userspace on el kernels and the other way round | 15:22 |
| ogra_ | if you find any issue you can prove being related to that all your beer at UDS is on me | 15:22 |
| desrt | ogra_: then surely the -el kernels must be aware of the FP registers... | 15:22 |

| chrisccoulson | splitting the library up? surely a better way of fixing it would be to fix the build system? | 15:56 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, how so? | 15:56 |
| chrisccoulson | firefox avoids the "argument list too long" by using a linker script rather than passing objects on the command line | 15:57 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, they just have a number of sources that goes over the arguments limit it seems? | 15:57 |
| seb128 | oh, I guess that works too ;-) | 15:57 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, yeah, they replaced building of intermediate archives (*.a files) with a descriptor file (which just contains a list of objects), and they use these descriptor files to build a linker script | 16:01 |
| chrisccoulson | pretty much | 16:01 |

| desrt | ouch. | 16:59 |
| * desrt feels massive amounts of dist-upgrade pain | 16:59 | |
| * desrt gives up, reinstalls | 17:16 | |
| desrt | sob | 17:28 |
| desrt | today was appatently a bad day for a reinstall | 17:28 |
| ogra_ | desrt, cant be, we are in a freeze :P | 17:31 |
| ogra_ | nobody uploads during freezes, right ? | 17:31 |
| desrt | today is a very bad day | 17:32 |
| desrt | i want to throw everything out the window at this point | 17:32 |
| ogra_ | oh man | 17:32 |
| desrt | i think my blue 'thinkvantage' button is broken | 17:33 |
| desrt | so i can't get the bootmenu up | 17:33 |
| desrt | and now i'm stuck with the result of the installer messing up half way through... | 17:33 |
| ogra_ | well, you can get back into your live image, no ? | 17:35 |
| ogra_ | just fix grub from there | 17:35 |
| desrt | having trouble with that on account of my inability to get the boot device menu up | 17:35 |
| ogra_ | oh, you talk about bios level | 17:36 |
| desrt | got it | 17:37 |
| desrt | lets see if the installer crashes again | 17:38 |
| desrt | hmm. this os-prober thing is hanging | 17:39 |
| desrt | hah. killing it from the console unsticks the intaller | 17:41 |
| chrisccoulson | bah @ bug 1055615 | 17:46 |

| seb128 | desrt, stop the trolling :p | 17:54 |
| desrt | seb128: seriously... | 17:54 |
| desrt | and amazon icon in the launcher? | 17:54 |
| seb128 | desrt, it's a one line in one of the dash pages (ok the default one), it's easy to ignore, and it doesn't have ads, just stuff matching your searches | 17:55 |
| seb128 | desrt, and disabling it is an apt-get away (will be soon some ui clicks away) | 17:55 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, still there? | 17:56 |
| Sweetsha1k | desrt: just search your local ogg-files for tracks by the sex pistols or by pussy riot and type slowly ... | 17:56 |
| desrt | Sweetsha1k: i don't have to try that to have an idea about what will happen... | 17:57 |
| jbicha | seb128: "soon some ui clicks away" as in 13.04? | 17:58 |
| seb128 | jbicha, I don't know, I'm just back from holidays but the original plan had a way to opt out, I don't think they let that out to force users | 17:59 |
| seb128 | jbicha, not sure if they will try a ffe,uife,stringfe or wait next cycle though | 17:59 |
| seb128 | jbicha, "ui" would probably be a filter in the dash, so not a big ui change | 17:59 |
| jbicha | I already wrote a page in docs with the current way to disable: uninstall the shopping lens | 18:00 |
| desrt | s/the dhopping lens/unity/ works as well :-) | 18:00 |
| jbicha | of course if you're going to remove unity, you might as well just use the gnome remix | 18:01 |
| seb128 | I think the trolling is something I didn't miss during my holidays :p | 18:02 |
| desrt | i would have done that but for the lack of dailies | 18:02 |
| seb128 | anyway, dinner time | 18:02 |
| seb128 | bbiab | 18:02 |
| jbicha | well Alpha2 is only a week and a half old but there have been a bunch of GNOME updates since then | 18:04 |
| desrt | jbicha: what are you doing about nautilus? | 18:08 |
| jbicha | referring people to the GNOME3 PPA | 18:08 |
| jbicha | seb128: what do you think about having Nautilus 3.6 in quantal-backports? | 18:09 |
| === mhall119_ is now known as mhall119 | ||
| seb128 | some days I hate linux | 18:48 |

| seb128 | I don't even have a screensaver | 18:49 |
| === Pici is now known as Guest97343 | ||
| jbicha | seb128: did you see my question about what you think of nautilus 3.6 going into quantal-backports? | 18:51 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, oh, i bet you have bug 1054198 too ;) | 18:51 |

| seb128 | jbicha, no, I didn't, I came back from diner with a "nothing on screen and no refresh" | 18:51 |
| chrisccoulson | (seeing as you have similar hardware to me) | 18:51 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, I don't use a screensaver though | 18:52 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, does your display get turned off? | 18:52 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, yes | 18:52 |
| chrisccoulson | seb128, yeah, that's why then | 18:52 |
| seb128 | jbicha, I think backport should be use for apps and not for system components like the filemanager | 18:53 |
| jbicha | nautilus is an app too :) | 18:53 |
| seb128 | jbicha, but I don't believe strongly about it and I don't think lot of people use backports, I think ppas are a better solution than backports ...e.g don't take my opinion too much in consideration | 18:53 |
| micahg | seb128: backports are enabled by default and show up in software center | 18:54 |
| seb128 | micahg, and? | 18:54 |
| micahg | it makes it easier to find for those who want it :) | 18:54 |
| seb128 | that doesn't change the fact that I don't like them, they are a poor solution | 18:54 |
| larsu | seb128, we have a potential fix for that dbusmenu crash. Can you pull the commit when into the package I merge it into trunk? | 18:55 |
| seb128 | but if they are listed in s-c I would recommend against putting nautilus there | 18:55 |
| larsu | seb128, I don't know if this really fixes the problem, as I can't reproduce it... | 18:55 |
| seb128 | you don't want to recommend broken upgrades in s-c | 18:55 |
| chrisccoulson | our whole model for distributing apps sucks :( | 18:55 |
| micahg | jbicha: you'd also need to test about 2 dozen reverse dependencies for potential breakage | 18:55 |
| === Guest97343 is now known as Pici | ||
| chrisccoulson | why can't i install gimp 2.8 from the S-C in precise? | 18:55 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: because we haven't finished unbreaking the reverse dependencies yet :) | 18:56 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, that's an issue being worked, hopefully it will be sorted by the next lts | 18:56 |
| seb128 | larsu, sure can do | 18:56 |
| seb128 | larsu, you are confident the commit is technically right even if it might not fix that particular bug right? | 18:57 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg, point proven ;) | 18:57 |
| larsu | seb128, yeah, I've tried it locally and charles reviewed it | 18:57 |
| larsu | seb128, https://code.launchpad.net/~larsu/dbusmenu/lp1053670/+merge/126047 | 18:57 |
| seb128 | larsu, danke | 18:57 |
| larsu | seb128, it's r427 | 18:58 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: it would be the same issue if you installed the upstream version unless it was self-contained | 18:58 |
| seb128 | jbicha, so yeah, I'm unsure we should promote in s-c an update which breaks unity integration | 18:58 |
| chrisccoulson | micahg, yes, which is exactly my point. the current distribution model sucks, and doesn't scale in the real world | 18:58 |
| jbicha | seb128: it requires explicit action to install a backport, but I guess backports wouldn't help much anyway | 18:59 |
| jbicha | for one, I'd have to bug the backports team for updates | 18:59 |
| seb128 | jbicha, according to micahg they are listed in s-c and enabled by default? | 18:59 |
| jbicha | if somebody pokes around software-center to see it, then yes it would be shown as an option | 18:59 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: this isn't about the distribution model, you have the issue with shared components, if it were a standalone leaf app, it would've been uploaded already (as we have done many updates in precise-backport) | 18:59 |
| seb128 | chrisccoulson, well, having a public api makes things harder as you know :p | 18:59 |
| micahg | *precise-backports | 18:59 |
| seb128 | but backport is a poor solution and doesn't scale anyway | 19:00 |
| seb128 | we should move away from it | 19:00 |
| micahg | seb128: enabled, but pinned lower, so you have to select it | 19:00 |
| seb128 | we should let upstream maintain their software | 19:00 |
| seb128 | 95% of our softwares are unmaintained and in a crappy state | 19:01 |
| seb128 | everybody would be in a better position if we focussed on the OS and let the apps to the app writers | 19:01 |
| chrisccoulson | yeah, i agree | 19:01 |
| seb128 | kill universe, let upstream maintain their app in extras or something | 19:02 |
| micahg | it's much lower than that I think, I'm quite amazed when I need a tool and it's an apt-get away | 19:02 |
| seb128 | speaking as somebody who often update desktop stuff because we are 6 month behind upstream and ship a buggy version and I feel bad about it, our model sucks | 19:02 |
| seb128 | look at the pidgin, inkscape, gimp, etc | 19:03 |
| seb128 | we don't "maintain" them | 19:03 |
| seb128 | nobody look at their bugs nor is engaged with upstream | 19:03 |
| === jcastro_ is now known as jcastro | ||
| seb128 | we try to keep up with Debian or we rely on people who don't care much to feel that we suck enough that they have to do an update | 19:03 |
| micahg | seb128: those are all in main, so we are claiming to maintain them | 19:04 |
| seb128 | "maintain" | 19:05 |
| micahg | "support" | 19:05 |
| seb128 | well, we do security updates | 19:05 |
| seb128 | it doesn't mean we do a good job about picking versions | 19:05 |
| seb128 | or engaging with upstream | 19:06 |
| jbicha | I'm not convinced that upstream can necessarily do a better job of maintaing these packages | 19:06 |
| seb128 | or engaging with users | 19:06 |
| seb128 | right, most don't | 19:06 |
| seb128 | but at least the blame is in the hands of the right persons :p | 19:06 |
| BigWhale | Is this an open discussion? If it is... how is Debian keeping up? Do they have the man power to keep all those packages up to date? | 19:06 |
| seb128 | they don't | 19:07 |
| seb128 | you have thousand of outdated or not well maintained softwares in Debian as well | 19:07 |
| jbicha | it's an open rant ;) | 19:07 |
| seb128 | look at http://people.canonical.com/~platform/desktop/versions.html and how much is > yellow | 19:07 |
| micahg | BigWhale: Debian also has ~1000 DDs, we have ~200 Ubuntu devs | 19:07 |
| seb128 | it gives you an idea on how much is outdated on our default install | 19:08 |
| BigWhale | How are other distros handling this? Fedora? | 19:08 |
| seb128 | you can imagine universe is another order of magnitude | 19:08 |
| seb128 | they don't handle it better | 19:08 |
| seb128 | I don't say that the model is useless | 19:08 |
| seb128 | but it has its limits | 19:08 |
| seb128 | it doesn't scale | 19:08 |
| BigWhale | I agree that having a bazillion outdated packages isn't really good. | 19:09 |
| seb128 | no distro keep up with the opensource ecosystem and we are speaking of an ecosystem a magnitude less active than the markets of phone app providers | 19:09 |
| jbicha | having each upstream learn each distro's packaging system scales worse though | 19:09 |
| micahg | right | 19:10 |
| seb128 | that's why we need to make packaging easier | 19:10 |
| seb128 | or automated | 19:10 |
| seb128 | the only decision should be "what version do I ship" and "what patches to I include" | 19:10 |
| BigWhale | seb128, I agree I ranted about Debian/Ubuntu packaging before. | 19:11 |
| seb128 | jbicha, there are not so many packaging system, there is deb and rpm basically | 19:11 |
| seb128 | which is the same than distribution for e.g android and iOS | 19:11 |
| seb128 | distributing | 19:11 |
| seb128 | which most app developers do | 19:12 |
| micahg | I cringe every time I install a deb that doesn't come from our archive | 19:12 |
| seb128 | not to mention that our distribution cycle, freeze, hard rules for SRUs, etc are made for an OS | 19:13 |
| seb128 | they are focussed on avoiding issues in the system | 19:13 |
| seb128 | there is no reason apps need to be on the same cadence and strict rules | 19:13 |
| === sarnold_ is now known as sarnold | ||
| === jibel_ is now known as jibel | ||
| seb128 | micahg, that's because we don't have good sandboxing (yet) | 19:13 |
| BigWhale | Having universe is a big benefit even if the software in it is a little outdated. | 19:16 |
| BigWhale | (I always thought that import from debian is automatic) | 19:17 |
| seb128 | right, but instead of an universe set on the ubuntu freezes you had a flexible appdev channel showing up in the s-c you would get the same benefits without the limitations | 19:17 |
| seb128 | imports are automatic | 19:17 |
| seb128 | but often there is work involved | 19:18 |
| seb128 | dealing with platform changes | 19:18 |
| seb128 | new compiler, new libs, etc | 19:18 |
| seb128 | we should probably keep universe available | 19:18 |
| seb128 | but if an upstream is wanting to maintain actively their software we should let them do that | 19:19 |
| BigWhale | seb128, what about quality and acceptance testing? Right now, are uploaders doing any of it? | 19:23 |
| seb128 | not for random apps | 19:23 |
| seb128 | the small Ubuntu team just can't assure the quality of all the softwares in the universe | 19:23 |
| micahg | well, MOTU is going to make more of an effort to look at RC level bugs before release | 19:24 |
| seb128 | sure, that just can't scale, you probably know it | 19:25 |
| seb128 | it takes a person full time to do a good job maintaining a source | 19:25 |
| BigWhale | some of the automated tests could be performed at least if the program is executed correctly | 19:26 |
| seb128 | right, the appdev stuff plans to have sandboxing and automated packaging and testing | 19:27 |
| seb128 | well that's the long distance goal | 19:27 |
| BigWhale | seb128, well, I'll support whatever will make getting programs into Ubuntu easier. :) | 19:28 |
| BigWhale | if this involves getting rid of universe, then so be it. :) | 19:29 |
| BigWhale | however, in the future, I'd love to see every program with at least some unit tests that ensure program will at least execute correctly | 19:31 |
| sarnold | shutdown(8)? :) | 19:32 |
| desrt | could be tested with the proper virtualisation :) | 19:33 |

| jbicha | robert_ancell: hey, so what do you think about leaving gnome-user-docs at 3.4 since we're holding back on gnome-control-center and nautilus? | 22:11 |
| robert_ancell | jbicha, I'm not opposed. I'm always unsure what to do about the user-docs since the content may not match what we have in Ubuntu | 22:11 |
| jbicha | the docs are a bit of a mess | 22:12 |
| jbicha | I started using conditional formatting in gnome-user-docs which will let us show Unity-specific stuff to Unity users & GNOME stuff to everyone else | 22:13 |
| jbicha | but the conditional formating won't allow us to change page titles so that only reduces the diff by half-ish | 22:13 |
| jbicha | as a related problem, the Ubuntu GNOME Remix has to ship ubuntu-docs because of patches to call help:ubuntu-help instead of help:gnome-help | 22:15 |
| jbicha | *ship both gnome-user-guide & ubuntu-docs | 22:16 |
