agateauQuintasan_: sorry, was away: it must be in the main package. It is started by the Plasma applet.08:28
agateauQuintasan_: It is the binary responsible for showing Homerun itself on top of the other windows08:28
agateauHaving it as a separate binary prevents Homerun from taking the desktop with it in case of crashes08:29

BeineriWill the qt5-beta2 ppa be also built for precise?12:18
Riddellgolly it's Beineri 12:19

BluesKajHi all13:53
ScottKJontheEchidna: I just noticed that the Muon* about boxes say "Muon Update Manager, Version 1.4.1, Using KDE Development Platform 4.9.2".  I know what you mean, but using something described as a development platform on a production system feels odd.  About KDE just says, "Platform Version 4.9.2".  That seems better to me.14:03
RiddellScottK: that's just the stock about box for applications14:05
Riddellbug upstream14:06
ScottKOh, sure enough.  I see the same thing on Okular.14:06
mparilloI notice that About for rekonq says: Version 1.1 Using KDE Development Platform 4.9.3. I wonder if it is some kind of standard (not defending it).14:14
Riddellyes, it's all code from kdelibs, the whole Help menu is14:18
Riddelland it is a bug, it should be s/Development//14:18

Riddelllesson of the day - if a package fails to build in launchpad but builds in your newly made chroot you don't have -proposed enabled15:34
shadeslayerheh15:35

apol_don't we have kdevelop 4.4.1 in kubuntu yet?17:06
Riddellshadeslayer: ^^17:10
shadeslayerapol_: we do17:11
shadeslayerwhich release though :P17:11
Riddellit's in -proposed17:11
apol_12.1017:11
Riddellyes, enable proposed for now17:11
shadeslayeryep, it's in -proposed for 12.1017:11
apol_what does proposed mean?17:11
shadeslayer!proposed17:12
ubottuThe packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories17:12
Riddellupdates need to stay in -proposed for a week and get people successfully testing it before it gets into -updates17:12
Riddell-proposed you have to enable manually, -updates is enabled by default 17:12
Riddellin /etc/apt/sources.list17:12
apol_well, I'm unsure what's the rationale behind this, but 4.4.1 fixes some important bugs, I don't see a reason for users not benefiting from this17:13
shadeslayerapol_: it'll get moved to -updates eventually17:13
shadeslayerjust not right away, this is done in order to prevent archive skew and when SRU'ing it's a testing ground for checking regressions17:14
ScottKapol_: We have a testing policy that mandates a waiting period so regressions can be detected.  It's only waived in extreme cases.17:14
Riddellpeople got a bit grumpy one time when an X update stopped X from working17:14
apol_how does a mandating period benefit users? it's a bug fix release!!17:14
Riddellnew bugs can slip into bug fix releases17:15
apol_Riddell: you can blame it on us, it's not a problem17:15
ScottKapol_: We have over 20,000 source packages in the distro.  It's a problem.17:15
apol_Riddell: that's why we have maintainers, for making sure it doesn't happen17:16
apol_Riddell: we won't ever say it's a distributors fault17:17
apol_but well, we spend hours fixing stuff for people to be happy and then having contention walls to this is frustrating17:17
apol_and more even if the argument for not letting these things through is that we might not have done well our job17:18
ScottKIt's a general policy that's applied everywhere.17:18
apol_well17:18
* apol_ is sad17:18
ScottKAs the general case we don't take new upstream versions post-release at all.17:18
ScottKSo the fact that it's getting in at all is an favorable indication of upstream quality.17:19
apol_well thank you for trusting KDE's fixes17:21
yofel__hm17:21
ScottKSpeaking of which ...17:22
ScottKyofel__: Did we get the krunner or whatever it was regression in 4.9.3 sorted out?17:22
yofel__aseigo reverted his commit, I'll take care of it when I get home17:22
yofel__unless someone else wants to do it17:23
ScottKCool.17:23
yofel__but speaking of which...17:23
yofel__yofel_: verify your skanlite SRU17:23
ScottKapol_: We do see regressions in KDE post-release updates sometimes, so testing is prudent.17:24
apol_ScottK: well, you didn't test the current version...17:25
ScottKOf what?  In particular there was a workspace regression in 4.9.3.  That is the current version.17:26
apol_ScottK: kdevelpo17:26
apol_kdevelop17:26
ScottKYes, because I'm not a kdevelop user.  Me testing it wouldn't make much since.17:27
ScottKNow if someone would package the Python plugin, that might change.17:27
apol_ScottK: who's testing KDevelop?17:27
* ScottK isn't sure.17:27
apol_prfff17:27
RiddellI uploaded an unstable kdevelop after consulting with upstream who were sure the stable version would be out in time for the kubuntu 12.10 release17:27
apol_Riddell: yes I remember17:28
Riddellit wasn't, which happens with software, and arguably I should have downgraded or removed it17:28
apol_well we've had it fixed for some days already17:28
apol_a month actually17:29
=== Tonio_ is now known as Tonio_aw
Riddellyeah, we should have been faster doing the update17:30
apol_well... isn't it just that nobody has offered the fixed package to end users?17:30
Riddellwe're in the process of doing so17:32
* apol_ doesn't understand17:32
apol_I guess I should just let go -.-17:33
Riddellapol_: would be good to have testers check the bugs are fixed and comment on bug 106761117:35

TygartIs it a good idea to use Pre-released Updates (I am testing 13.04) 17:36
genii-aroundDarn. I wanted to ask him if there was some fix for bug 1002736 in Quantal17:36

RiddellTygart: not for unreleased version unless there's a paticular package you need to test17:39
TygartRiddell: Ok, I am just looking for something to do.  17:40
TygartThanks17:40
BluesKajBBL...17:44
RiddellTygart: oh in that case, testing lightdm-kde_0.3.0-1ubuntu1 from raring-proposed would be good once it's built :)17:46
TygartRiddell: how will I get it? 17:46
RiddellTygart: enable Pre-released Updates17:47
Riddelland see if it's available in the updates17:47
TygartRiddell: will I be able to choose only that update? 17:49
Tygartsorry, I haven't done this before. 17:50
shadeslayeryep17:52
shadeslayeryou can upgrade via muon or do sudo apt-get install light-dm-kde-greeter 17:53
shadeslayerlightdm-kde-greeter even17:53
Tygartshadeslayer: Thanks.. 18:04
ScottKAnyone running precise on a laptop/netbook?18:09
genii-aroundScottK: Somewhere I have it running on an Acer D260. The machine is at home right now though18:26
yofel_shadeslayer: weren't you still on precise?18:36
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
shadeslayeryes18:36
shadeslayerbut it's a bit of a horrible install18:36
shadeslayerbut, ssup?18:36
yofelshadeslayer: if that mac of yours has precise on it ScottK was looking for precise laptops18:43
shadeslayeroh okay18:44
shadeslayerScottK: whatcha need it for?18:44
shadeslayerI'm wary of upgrading because there's so much work involved18:45
ScottKshadeslayer: There are kde-workspace and synaptiks SRUs that need verification.18:45
shadeslayeralright18:45
shadeslayerbut, I'm on 4.9.318:45
ScottKThe workspace one needs a battery and the synaptiks on needs a touchpad.18:45
ScottKSynaptiks should be fine.18:45
shadeslayerokay then18:46
shadeslayerScottK: uhhh ... the kcm module works fine for me18:49
ScottKSigh.18:49
ScottKYou didn't install the proposed stuff before and forget did you?18:49
shadeslayerI don't think so, I reinstalled the package and it's 0.8.1-1ubuntu118:50
genii-aroundyofel: Ping19:21
yofelgenii-around: pong, will get to it shortly19:29
genii-aroundyofel: OK. The user which was having the issue in #kubuntu has left, but if there is some way to explain a solution to them if they return, it would be much appreciated.19:31
yofelgenii-around: how does that affect quantal though? I'll upload it for raring, but the only driver version that the bug has been confirmed with isn't in the archive for quantal19:52
genii-aroundyofel: I assumed they were running Quantal since they asked in the regular channel and not +1, but I don't think it was actually asked what version they were on. The symptoms matched the bug exactly. 19:57
genii-aroundIf they return I'll try to extract more information.19:58
yofelyeah, I looked at the backlog, but it's kind of weird that s/he reports that it started crashing afer the driver setup (which involved some PPA's it seems)20:05
Riddell"Welcome to the Steam for Linux limited beta"  do I want to join this?20:39
genii-aroundRiddell: Ironically in one of the ops channels, it was just mentioned that #ubuntu-steam is now open20:41
Tm_TRiddell: no, steam must mean something toxic /:20:43
ScottKRiddell: No.  We don't want you distracted from making Kubuntu more wonderful.20:44
Riddellbut maybe I'm missing out on this whole gaming thing20:44
